In this shiur entitled "Streimel for Shushan Purim'?, we will study an essay of Rav Tzadok HaKohen in his work Pri Tzaddik. If one doubts the deeper meaning behind a minhag BiYisrael, listen to the presentation of this giant of Chassidic thought regarding the two days of Purim. What is unique about Shushan Purim, and why was this second day of Purim added for all generations? We will study the Aggadeta in Megila 11a which presents the introductory Homiletical Lectures of Reish Lakish & Rebby Elazar to the Megilla & the holiday of Purim. These two דרשות represent the two answers to the question of how was Amalek able to be מקטרג (prosecution) against Israel in the Heavenly Court? These 2 answers correspond to the two days of Purim.
