In this shiur, delivered in Tomer Devorah, Rav Burg explained why:
1. Yaakov was attracted to Rachel.
2. Lavan wanted Yaakov to marry Leah first.
3. How Lavan intended to uproot the entire Jewish Nation.
We live within the dialectical tension of being ok and yearning for more. On the one hand we need to be ok with our state of Golus so that we can survive. On the other hand we cannot become complacent and stop yearning for Mashiach.
