"וישבה בביתך ובכסה את אביה ואת אמה ירח ימים"
(פרק כ"א פסוק י''ג)
The אור החיים explains that this פסוק is referring to חדש אלול.
''ירח ימים'' is referring to the thirty days of אלול when we sit and cry.
''וישבה בביתך'' is referring to sitting in the בית המדרש.
ר' ירוחם אלשין הגאוןasks, what is the message the אור החיים is trying to say?
He answers by explaining that there are really two steps to teshuva.
We see it in the תפילה of
''השיבנו אבינו לתורתיך וקרבנו מלכנו לעבודתיך''
In order to do וקרבנו מלכנו לעבודתיך, in order to come close and attainקרבת ה', what do you need to do first?
השיבנו אבינו לתורתיך- return to the torah!
The prerequisite for teshuva is to first strengthen yourself in torah, and afterwards you can close to Hashem.
''ירח ימים''
In חדש אלול when we are preparing ourselves for ,יום הדין to stand before the מלך מלכי המלכים , this פסוק teaches us how to do teshuva!
''וישבה בביתך''
Go back to the בית המדרש! Reconnect to לימוד התורה! Reconnect !החזקת התורה
This is the first step of teshuva!
