Incredible sicho: true purpose of redemption related to parsha Devarim.
Rebbe gives “revolutionary talk” about the meaning of transforming evil into good, darkness into light. Tzadikim are by definition righteous but the aveiras (sins) of Baal Tshuva have the power to transform evil into good, The Rebbe describes why Tzadikim are not on this level.
Had we only had “Light” we could not have experienced this transformation. Chumash Devarim begins - “These are the words that Moses spoke on the other side of the Jordan…” Whole parsha is designed that Moshe speaks to the Jewish People to prepare them for their future journey into Israel.
