On the Shuvu Bonim website, I found a shiur delivered by the Rosh Yeshivah, the first couple of paragraphs mention the importance of chevruta:
‘Either a study partner or death,’ - in very short he brings down that for Jews, seeing one another revives us, whereas being appart brings death, that's why a Jew makes the blessing מחיי מתים (Blessed is he who revives the dead) when he hasn't seen his fellow Jew in a long time--their coming together is a revival. (paraphrased by me)He says a lot more than this simple distillation. It's worth taking a look at.
