not resting on ones laurels is often a tougher test of willpower than continuing the struggle in face of opposition. a victory is counterintuitively a harder faith to bear than defeat. rome did not fall because it had it too hard, but only in times when it was too easy they allowed themselves to slacken. the jews are loosening the leash because they experienced too much pushback, its precisely now that we shall not lower our defenses & celebrate prematurely but keep at it even harder.
