Chizuk

[2] Chizuk is a recurring theme throughout Jewish scripture and rabbinic literature, often reflecting the necessity of moral and spiritual fortitude.

In the Gemara, specifically in Brachot 32b, the Sages note that four things require continuous chizuk: Torah study, good deeds (maasim tovim), prayer, and proper behavior (derech eretz).

The Maharal of Prague, in his work Be’er Hagolah, explains that the need for chizuk arises because "anything that generates antagonism must be upheld and sustained."

For example, after the events of October 7th, 2023, which many have described as one of the darkest days for Klal Yisrael since the Holocaust, there has been an outpouring of chizuk aimed at bolstering the emotional resilience of the Jewish community.

[5] An example of chizuk appears in the story of Joshua, who receives constant encouragement from Moshe and from Hashem as he prepares to lead the Jewish people into the Land of Israel.

For example, many yeshivot organize chizuk events where rabbis deliver talks aimed at strengthening the attendees' commitment to Torah observance.
