Hayom Yom 9 Elul - When it really matters you will figure it out
from The daily Hayom Yom with Rabbi Yosef Katzman
אַאַזְמוּ"ר אָמַרMy grandfather, [the Rebbe Maharash, discussedבְּיַחַס לְהִתְבּוֹנְנוּת בְּהַעֲמָקַת הַדַּעַת בְּעִנְיַן קְשֵׁה הַהֲשָׂגָהthe expectation that a chassid devote time to] profound meditation on a difficult concept, saying: אִם הָעִנְיָן נוֹגֵעַ אֲזַי מְבִינִים וּמַשִּׂיגִים בְּכִי טוֹב“If the matter at hand genuinely affects a person, then he will understand and grasp it very well.וּרְאָיָה מִן הַתּוֹרָה בְּדִינֵי נָשִׁים וכו' וְטַעֲנוֹתֵיהֶן שֶׁיְּכוֹלוֹת לִטְעוֹן“Proof of this can be found in the Torah, in the laws concerning women and the legal arguments that they could put forth וּמְדַבְּרִים בָּזֶה תַּנָּאִים וְאָמוֹרָאִים וְהַגְּאוֹנִים שֶׁכּוּלָּם הֵם בַּעֲלֵי הַשְׂכָּלָה מוּפְלָגָהarguments that are debated by the Tannaim, the Amoraim, and the Geonim, who were all prodigious intellectuals! וְהַתּוֹרָה הִיא תּוֹרַת אֱמֶתNow, the Torah is a Torah of truth, וַהֲלֹא הָאִשָּׁה אֵינָהּ בְּעֶרֶךְ לִטְעוֹן טְעָנוֹת אֵלּוּyet women [at large] are not capable of advancing such [intricate] arguments. אֲבָל הָאֱמֶת הוּא, דְּכַאֲשֶׁר הָעִנְיָן נוֹגֵעַ הִנֵּה גַּם חֲלוּשֵׁי הַדַּעַת מַמְצִיאִים שִׂכְלִיִּים עֲמוּקִיםBut the truth is that when a matter genuinely affects a person, even a limited mind can propose deep arguments.”Text and Translation courtesy of Sichos in English
