אות - יג

There are many religious people who have no livelihood and find this to be a source of great stress and confusion. But even this is good for the world. And know that there are many precious words that only come from such confusion.

There are many types of confusion and distraction. In the Midrash, we find that there is slumber pertaining to prophecy, as when “a deep sleep fell on Abraham” (Genesis 15:12; see Bereshit Rabbah 44:19) . On the other hand, there is the sleep of fools. In both cases, sleep refers to mental confusion (see “ His Wisdom ” #112) .
