The Chief Rabbi of Russia Berl Lazar is sure that the main Purim lessen is an ability to discern the God’s scenario in everyday life. “We do not see the scene writer, but it does not mean that he does not exist!” the Rabbi believes.
The second lesson of the holiday is a reminder to everybody about personal responsibility for this scenario. Everybody has roles written specially for them, Berl Lazar added. He wished all the Jews strength and certainty that would turn into a source of joy.
