BASED ON SHVILEI PINCHAS: HKB”H Rests His Shechinah upon a Gathering of Ten Members of Yisrael Transforming Them into a New Entity
In this week's portion of Emor, we read (Vayikra 22, —“ולא תחללו את שם קדשי ונקדשתי בתוך בני ישראל אני ה’ מקדשכם” :( 32
you shall not defile My holy name, and I shall be sanctified amidst Bnei Yisrael; I am Hashem Who sanctifies you.
Abba Binyamin says: A person’s tefilah is only heard in a “bet-kenesset”
MAHARAL: there is no prosecutor for the “tzibbur”
