“If I could only love the most righteous person in the world
as much as the Creator loves the most wicked person in the world.” Rabbi Zusha of Hanipol
Meshulam Zusha (1718-1800) was born in Galicia and would, in
modern terms, have been of the Polish nationality. He was known for his extreme piety and his highly emotional
prayer life. He is
considered to have been one of the great Hassidic rabbis along with his equally
revered brother, Rabbi Elimelech of Lizhensk.
Many people understand that Jesus died for the sins of the
world. What they often fail to
realize is that Jesus died for them individually. The Bible says that the angels rejoice when one sinner
believes. The price paid for
that one sinner was the most valuable thing in the universe.
