I'm looking at his commentary on Parshat Behar, and do not see it. So I assume the statement must appear somewhere else.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16904233860062443147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-33102078876756111662015-05-08T07:45:20.190-04:002015-05-08T07:45:20.190-04:00You can use r dessler for this too, that dor hamon...You can use r dessler for this too, that dor hamon that didn't do hishtadlus is great.
