In The Garden Of The Torah - In Tanya, Shaar HaYichud VehaEmunah,[1] the Alter Rebbe states that "the name with which every created being is called in the Holy Tongue is a divine channel for the life-force... which grants it vitality."
On numerous occasions, the Rebbe Shlita has explained that this principle receives greater emphasis with regard to names that share a connection with the Torah, for in contrast to entities in the world at large, the Divine life-force of the Torah is more openly revealed.
Using these concepts as a foundation, the Rebbe Shlita has often spoken about lessons that could be derived from the name of each weekly Torah portion at Shabbos farbrengens (gatherings).
On certain occasions, he has demonstrated how the name relates to all the different elements of the Torah portion, while on others, he has confined himself to explaining the general message the name conveys.
