Tanya, end of chapters 18–19
Question
The Tanya, at the end of chapter 18, states that a Jew differs from a gentile in that, generally speaking, he gives up his life for His blessed Name, even if he is one of the least observant, whereas this is not the case for a gentile. Is there any evidence for this claim (or evidence against it), or is this a tendentious statement?
Answer
I assume he has no proof for that. In any case, I am not aware of any.
