צְדָקָה הִיא תִּקּוּן הַבְּרִית. כִּי פְּגַם הַבְּרִית הוּא, כִּי הוּא הָיָה צָרִיךְ לְהַשְׁפִּיעַ בִּקְדֻשָּׁה לְמָקוֹם שֶׁצָּרִיךְ לְהַשְׁפִּיעַ, וְהוּא סִלֵּק הַהַשְׁפָּעָה מִשָּׁם, וְהִמְשִׁיכָהּ, חַס וְשָׁלוֹם לְמָקוֹם אַחֵר, וְעַל־כֵּן הַתִּקּוּן עַל־יְדֵי הַצְּדָקָה, שֶׁעַל־יְדֵי־זֶה חוֹזֵר וּמַשְׁפִּיעַ לְשָׁם, אֶל הַקְּדֻשָּׁה, וְעַל־יְדֵי־זֶה נִתְתַּקֵּן.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
Charity is a rectification for the *brit*. Blemishing the *brit* is defined as a person having been required to provide, in holiness, for that place which he was to have provided for, but [instead] his having removed the provisions from there and drawn them, God forbid, to some other place. Therefore, the rectification is through charity. Through this he again provides for the holiness and is thereby rectified.

וְזֶה בְּחִינַת: וַיָּבוֹאוּ הָאֲנָשִׁים עַל הַנָּשִׁים, הַנֶּאֱמַר בְּנִדְבַת הַמִּשְׁכָּן (שמות ל״ה:כ״ב). הַיְנוּ בְּחִינַת זִוּוּג שֶׁנַּעֲשָׂה עַל־יְדֵי הַצְּדָקָה שֶׁל נִדְבַת הַמִּשְׁכָּן כַּנַּ"ל.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
This is the aspect of “The men accompanied the women” (Exodus 35:22) mentioned in connection with donations for the Tabernacle—i.e., the aspect of union that was made through the charity donated to the Tabernacle, as explained above.

וְעַל כֵּן כְּשֶׁנּוֹתֵן לְעָנִי שֶׁאֵינוֹ הָגוּן, אֲזַי אַדְּרַבָּא הוּא נִפְגָּם יוֹתֵר, כִּי חוֹזֵר וּמַשְׁפִּיעַ לְמָקוֹם שֶׁאֵינוֹ צָרִיךְ. וְעַיֵּן בְּמָקוֹם אַחֵר (לעיל בסי' לא, ובסי' נד), שֶׁמְּבֹאָר גַּם כֵּן שֶׁצְּדָקָה הוּא תִּקּוּן הַבְּרִית:

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
Therefore, when someone gives to an undeserving pauper, then, on the contrary, he increases the blemish. For he is once again providing for a place that he should not. See also elsewhere, where it is likewise explained that charity is a rectification for the *brit* .I heard many more things regarding this from [Rebbe Nachman’s] holy lips, but forgot them, because they were not written down immediately.
