אַשְׁרֵי מַשְׂכִּיל אֶל דָּל, בְּיוֹם רָעָה יְמַלְטֵהוּ יְיָ (תהילים מ״א:ב׳):

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
“Praiseworthy is he who imparts wisdom to the needy; on the day of evil God will save him from harm.” (Psalm 41:2)

[Likutei Moharan 106:1:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/106:1:2)

אִיתָא, דְּאֵין עֲנִיּוּת אֶלָּא מִן הַדַּעַת (נדרים מא), וְעַל זֶה צָרִיךְ רַחֲמָנוּת, כִּי אֵין רַחֲמָנוּת גְּדוֹלָה מִזֶּה.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
It is [brought in the Talmud]: There is no poverty other than in *daat* (Nedarim 41a) . This calls for compassion, because there is nothing more [in want of] compassion than this.

[Likutei Moharan 106:1:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/106:1:3)

וַעֲנִּיּוּת זֶה בִּכְלָלוּת וּבִפְרָטוּת, בִּכְלָלוּת – עַל אִישׁ שֶׁאֵין לוֹ שֵׂכֶל בַּעֲבוֹדַת הַבּוֹרֵא, וְצָרִיךְ הַבַּעַל שֵׂכֶל לְהַשְׂכִּילוֹ; וּבִפְרָטוּת – עַל הָאִישׁ עַצְמוֹ, כִּי יֵשׁ זְמַן שֶׁאֵין לוֹ שֵׂכֶל, וְהוּא נִקְרָא קַטְנוּת הַמֹּחִין, וְצָרִיךְ לְחַזֵּק אֶת עַצְמוֹ לָבוֹא לְגַדְלוּת הַמֹּחִין. וּכְשֶׁבָּא לְגַדְלוּת הַמֹּחִין, נִמְתָּקִין כָּל הַדִּינִין, וּמַמְשִׁיךְ עָלָיו חֲסָדִים וְרַחֲמִים.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
Now, this poverty applies in both a broad and a particular way. Its broad application is to a person whose worship of God is without wisdom. Someone who has mastered wisdom must teach him wisdom. Its particular application is to the person himself, who at times lacks all wisdom. This is called “constricted consciousness.” He must then see to acquire wisdom and increase his efforts so that he attains “expanded consciousness.” When he attains expanded consciousness, all the harsh judgments are mitigated, and so he evokes lovingkindness and compassion.

וְזֶה מַאֲמַר חֲכָמֵינוּ זִכְרוֹנָם לִבְרָכָה (ברכות לג): גְּדוֹלָה דֵּעָה שֶׁנִּתְּנָה בֵּין שְׁנֵי אוֹתִיּוֹת, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: כִּי אֵל דֵּעוֹת ה'.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
This is the teaching of our Sages, of blessed memory: Great is *dae’ah,* for it was positioned between two Divine Names, as it is said (1 Samuel 2:3): “for the *El* (Omnipotent One) of *dae’ot* is *YHVH* (God)” (Berakhot 33a).

פֵּרוּשׁ, כְּשֶׁיָּבוֹא לְגַדְלוּת הַמֹּחִין, נִתְעוֹרֵר עָלָיו רַחֲמִים וַחֲסָדִים מִשְּׁנֵי אוֹתִיּוֹת: אֵל, הוּא חֶסֶד, עַל דֶּרֶךְ (תהילים נ״ב:ג׳): חֶסֶד אֵל כָּל הַיּוֹם. וַה', הוּא רַחֲמִים, עַל דֶּרֶךְ (שם קיט): רַחֲמֶיךָ רַבִּים ה'.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
The explanation is: When a person attains expanded consciousness, compassion and lovingkindness are awakened for him from the two Divine Names. *El* is lovingkindness, as in (Psalms 52:3), “the lovingkindness of *El* is throughout the day.” And *YHVH* is compassion, as in (Psalms 119:156), “Your compassion is abundant, O *YHVH* .”

וְזֶהוּ פֵּרוּשׁ הַפָּסוּק: אַשְׁרֵי מַשְׂכִּיל אֶל דָּל – הַיְנוּ כְּשֶׁהוּא בְּקַטְנוּת הַמֹּחִין, וּמַשְׂכִּיל עַצְמוֹ לְגַדְלוּת הַמֹּחִין,

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
**2.** This is the explanation of the [opening] verse: **{“Praiseworthy is he who *maskil* (imparts wisdom) to the needy; on the day of evil *YHVH* will save him from harm.”}** **Praiseworthy is he who *maSKiL* to the needy—**That is, when he is in a state of constricted consciousness and develops his *SeKheL* (wisdom) to expanded consciousness.

[Likutei Moharan 106:2:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/106:2:3)

וְאִם לֹא יָכוֹל בְּעַצְמוֹ לָבוֹא לְגַדְלוּת הַמֹּחִין, עֵצָה לָזֶה, שֶׁיַּשְׂכִּיל אֲחֵרִים, וְעַל־יְדֵי־זֶה נִתְעוֹרֵר גַּם אֶצְלוֹ:

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
And if he cannot attain expanded consciousness on his own, the solution is for him to teach others wisdom. As a result, he too will awaken to expanded consciousness.
