!תחת אחד השיחים

איתא בספר השיחות תש"ג [מתורגם ללה"ק] - חג הפסח ליל סדר השני סל"ג ע' עה

ז"ל: "כאן אנו נמצאים בגלות בידי אומות העולם, בארץ ישראל נמצאים בידי יהודים", וקשה להיות בגלות אצל רשעי ישראל מאשר אצל רשעי אומות העולם. הגלות בידי הגוים טובה מאשר הגלות בידי היהודים. הגוי מחזיק את הגוף היהודי בגלות, אך עם הנשמה היהודית אין לו עסק, ואילו הרשע היהודי מכניס את הנשמה היהודית בגלות ומחפש לטמא את הנשמה". ע"כ
