In today’s episode we discuss the Alter Rebbe’s value for the practice of learning Ein Yaakov as well as practical Mitzvos in groups of (at least) 10 Jews on weekdays between Mincha and Ma’ariv prayers and to learn the halachos of Shabbos specifically with a congregation of 10 (or more) Jews on Shabbos at Mincha time. We also learn about how a person should not separate themselves from the congregation during this learning time.

In this episode we discuss what is meant by the reward that is granted to an individual who studies Torah on their own and contrast this with how the Shechina is drawn down when ten Jews gather together and hovers above them, as it is too intense and infinite a radiance to be vested within their souls while the souls are limited by physical bodies.
