In this week's parsha, parshas Emor,
we find
all the parshas of myadis, yamim tovim,
sukkos,
shavuos, pesach, even erev pesach. But
what's very interesting
is the torah starts off the parsha of
myadis with shabbos. How does shabbos
come in to the parsha of yamim tovim?
Rashi already asked the shaila.
But even furthermore,
it doesn't it's not just brought in the
parsha of myadis.
The torah says this is the parsha of
myadis. Torah may saw of matal mayadi
Hashem.
Then the possuk says, "Eleh hem moadei."
These are the yamim tovim. "Sheishes
yamim tei'asu melacha." "Eleh hem
moadei." These are the yamim tovim.
Shabbos is a yom tov.
So agav,
I want to share with the listeners
something that's relevant
to whether you make kiddush
or you listen to kiddush every Friday
night in kiddush.
We say the words "techilah le mikra'ei
kodesh." In the brocha of kiddush you
say "techilah le mikra'ei kodesh."
What's "techilah le mikra'ei kodesh?" So
the tour in his first shot explains that
shabbos is the first on line "le
mikra'ei kodesh" in this week's parsha.
So Friday night by kiddush, "techilah le
mikra'ei kodesh" in this week's parsha,
shabbos is the first in the list of
mikra'ei kodesh. "Techilah" it's the
first.
Al ponim the shaila is,
why is shabbos mentioned in the parsha
of moadei of yamim tovim?
My grandfather,
Reb Mordechai Yudel Lubart,
he was the talmid Yeshiva S'chas
Malvlin,
says the following Al Pi Yesoid
that the Sfas Emes says,
Yom Tov is Mikra Kodesh Mikra'ei Kodesh,
Mekadesh Yisroel v'Hazmanim, which means
that Klal Yisroel are the ones to bring
upon Yom Tov.
You see, if Klal Yisroel is not Mekadesh
the Chodesh till the next day,
Pesach is a day later.
Klal Yisroel is the one who decides when
Yom Tov should be. Mekadesh Yisroel
v'Hazmanim. Mikra Kodesh, Klal Yisroel
is the one who calls Yom Tov Kodesh. Ma
She'einko Shabbos, Shabbos is not like
that. Shabbos comes every seven days.
It's not dependent on us. It's not
dependent how we have the calendar.
Every seven days is Shabbos.
Says the Sfas Emes,
but by Yitzias Mitzrayim, Klal Yisroel
added to Shabbos. Shabbos used to be
only Zecher l'Maaseh Bereishis, now
Zecher l'Yitzias Mitzrayim. So, maybe
there's something more also. These are
hoisafa.
Ad Kan,
says my grandfather Al Pi Yesoid of the
Sfas Emes.
I would like to add on a bit more,
which I feel would be the gayla maysadic
to everybody.
Shuru, Shabbos comes every single week.
We don't plan it. It's not an It's not
dependent on our calendar. However,
the more a person prepares for Shabbos,
the more he could connect to Shabbos,
the more he could get out of Shabbos.
I want to share with you
the words of a Talmud of Rabbeinu Yonah.
The kasha ro'eh ha Shabbos eihu
mishtadel when the Shabbos Kodesh sees
how much effort you put in to get the
bracha of Shabbos he mikarei bracha
as kamayim ha panim la panim
will be tashbi all of meheira mehaida
the Shabbos will shine back will give
more more bracha to the person. Meaning
to say
that Shabbos even though Shabbos comes
every 7 days not dependent on us
but it is we are mikra kodesh we could
decide
how much to reflect how much to get from
the Shabbos. The more we prepare the
more we get everybody in their level.
Some people
some people stop working by chatzos.
Everyone in their level. The Rambam says
preparing for Shabbos means
that you yoishiv umetzapah you wait for
Shabbos to come.
It's not that rushing flying the last
second by the here making it is it
almost the shkiya.
That's not called kavod Shabbos that's
not preparing for Shabbos.
If a person wants to be able to tap into
the bracha of Shabbos mikra kodesh
that's why it's like Yom Tov it's
dependent on us how much effort we put
in to prepare for Shabbos.
The Baal Shem Tov
says
baharish uvakatzir tishbot
baharish
harish is rashei teivos the three
letters the ches the reish and the shin
ches is chamishi reish revi'i
a person
himself
Wednesday Thursday Friday then tish and
you can get the
Shabbos as the offer
the reason why it's in this week in in
the parish of Yom Tov
true it's different than Yom Tov that
Yom Tov a person a
brings upon the Yom Tov as opposed to
Shabbos but it's a lesson that we also
could and should bring upon the Shabbos
to be able to be
to Shabbos the brocha of Shabbos
have a wonderful Shabbos.
