17 Adar I, 5774 (2/17/14) – Sukkah#14 {Eliezer}

[ A+ ] /[ A- ]

R’ Elazar: prays of Tzaddikim compared to a pitchfork (turns over grain on threshing floor) so too prayers (turn over “MeHaFoch” Attributes of Hashem, Judgement to Mercy).

E’s Lesson: We are not ‘stuck’ with our decrees if we are able to turn over and recreate ourselves, Hashem (Midah K’neged Midah) will turn over our evil decrees into good ones. + ADAR hint of “V’nohapochu”
