The Orach Chaim explains what the Pasuk means that the Bnei Yisrael were "short of breath" and that it refers to a lack of Torah.
One explanation given, based on the Even Ha'ezra in Par...2025-01-201h 19Halacha Headlines1/18/25 – Shiur 498 – Should each community have a “Rebbetzin” to teach, advise and inspire the women?Are women’s learning programs motivated by feminism and the desire for “equality”?

• The Sefarim bring down from the Arizal that Teshuva during Elul is classified as Teshuva M'Ahava (love), which has the awesome power to restore all the time wasted doing Aveiros. In contrast, Teshuva on Rosh Hashanah is classified as Teshuva M'Yirah (fear) and only wipes the slate clean, but the person is still accountable for wasted time and opportunities.
