Purim - The Fall of Nasralla, Haman & the Unparalleled Light of Megillas Esther
Rabbi Daniel Glatstein
The Gemara relates that Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi said: The fact that I am more incisive than my colleagues is due to the fact that I saw Rabbi Meir from behind, i.e., I sat behind him when I was his student. Had I seen him from the front, I would be even more incisive, as it is written: “And your eyes shall see your teacher”. Seeing the face of one’s teacher increases one’s understanding and sharpens one’s mind
