Holiday of Sukkot & Unity חג הסוכות וחג האסיף A New Kabbalah class by Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

Welcome to our class on quizzes we're going to be learning a beautiful Hasidic discourse in the Reba the name of the acrylic discourse is called the khaga osive the rebel said this Hasidic discourse the night before the 13th day of the month of tishray which we know is the anniversary of the passing of the rabbi maharash the fourth Chabad rabba in the Years this course 41 years ago and the rebel went on to certify and edit this specific discourse in honor of the holiday of haga Sukkot in the year topsin memsayin 37 years ago the discourse is based on the version of Torah where it says the holiday of the Gathering but when you gather in everything from the field which is referring to the holiday of Sukkot whoever brings uh from the uh discourse from the river maharash who is celebrating now his yard side that this at the festivals are connected to different times in relation to the to the grain that we have in the field in other words even though it's technically referring to the physical grain when it comes in and so on and so forth but the Rivera says the intent is mainly about the spiritual grain and that's why the holiday of Sukkot is is is is is in in the time when they gather in the grain from the fields and that's why actually the one of the names of the holidays so God is called Khan the holiday that you bring in from the field why is that because the holiday of Sukkot is connected and it comes after the Gathering of the grain like it says clearly the asafta the gun you should Gather in the grain the wine and the oil on a spiritual level so again so all these ideas that we we learn in the sunbox Trot the physical level the urban around it relates to one of spiritual event is going to explain the discourse in other words just like when you gather in all the Grain on a literal level when do you gather it in you gather in before yante before the holiday Sukkot because on the how that you can't gather stuff in so how old are you you don't you don't do any Malachi you don't do any work so the same thing also just like on a physical level why don't you gather it in you gather and before the holidays to go the same thing on a spiritual level it means after we do the spiritual work of gathering in the grain from from from the land then we celebrate the holiday world for seven days the holidays to quote answer a question they said like this what is the connection between the holidays to goat and as we know the holiday secret is called khaga Sukkot and bait why is it called because it says that you should sit in the sukkah for seven days and what is the connection between the holidays to go again which is talking about sitting in the circle with the idea of gathering in the grain from the from the land that's question number one question number two is and like everyone says this question is brought out many discourses and the verse notorious says basuka is you should sit in the circle of seven days and then it says color Ezra every resident of the Jewish peoples who sit in the Sukkot so seemingly German says the Commandment issue we should sit for a circle in seven days who's that to everybody it's a commandment to all the Jewish people so what is notorious saying caller Ezra every residents everybody says all the Jewish people sent us to God what is the what is the Torah Ending by saying resident another question to ask when you look at the Commandment of sitting in the circle so the first part about success it says seven days however when it comes to the Commandment of every resident it's just you should sit in a circle and it doesn't spell out seven days and the question what's the difference now in the continuation where it says you should celebrate the holiday for seven days the verse continues on to say that you should take on the first day of Sukkot you should take a pre-h hello which is referring to the Earth that grows on the tree a whole year copper is tomorrow which is referring to the new Love there are enough it's always referring to that is referring to the um to the to the aroma those are four species that this Mitzvah which is which we do in Sukkot which is taking the four species the Esra the rule of the hagas is also connected with the idea of the how they have gathering in in other words and this Mitzvah of taking the little of an s-rig is when is that Mitzvah so according to the Torah biblically it's only the first day in the temple it was every single day so so the question is what's the connection between the four species and the Gathering in it now even though that the four species the law of estrogantas is not connected with the essence of the holiday just like the holiday of just like as much as sitting in the sukkah and is understood because the fact is you sit in a circle every single day as a goat like it says clearly in Torah for seven days you sit in a circle and there's one to Holiday starts when the holiday gets Sanctified voila you're in the sukkah however the Mitzvah of taking the four feet species starts only the next morning when a lot when the Shahar or actually more specific by by sunrise and only in the first day and again to be clear the midst of taking the little of an ashrig doesn't start at night starts in the morning it's Point number one point number two it's officially biblically only the first thing okay we do it all the rest of today's from a rabbinical perspective in the temple they took it every day but they only took it once in the morning it wasn't all they obviously circus is right it was the sitting in the circus much more powerful because it starts right when the circus starts at night and you're supposed to be in the circle always the Mitzvah even though the mitral over is not something which we do um every day and all day but nevertheless it's connected with the first day which is kind of awesome and the question is what's the connection between the four species and the holiday of gathering in on a spiritual level services to understand this in other words the connection of the how they've got we sit in the sukkah and taking the four species with a gathering of the grain so Robert says he'd like to give introduction what it says a very very powerful really very powerful measures it's the Metro service follows the Metro says it says reference to the four species so pre-h haddar you should take a a fruit which is which is beautiful again the conversation was grows on a tree except she's referring to the s-rig what is a priests are there's the Metro says you know the Prius how there is God which we know is referring to the love so what is the compass tomorrow what does the matter say what is that look at this world who is God on our face always referring to the hadasem what is that so the Metro says the willow what is that it's God and it actually brings different proofs from different from from different verses only for instance as well which by the way in our class I always say the magic answer is God God is everything but anyway no no but the fact is the Metro says everyone the species the estrogen the Lulu of the hadassar and the rabbis each one of these what are they they're Gods so the rubber Mirage like we mentioned it at his yard site and he explains this idea that the Metro says that everyone discrete species is referring to God what's the connection with God it's because every one of the species have within it the powerful energy of of unity and if he knows God is one and since every one of the species have the Oneness and that's a connection with our College World in other words and he explains the the pre-h-adar what is the Creations are so what is it referring to it's referring to the asteroid what's the connection with the estrog and pre-h halder and the answer is because the S rig is something that grows on the tree all all year round as we know throughout the year there's different situations one actually next and that's what it's actually cool that's why the name of a year is called suno Sana comes from the word of shinui change so it knows you in the estrogate grows on a tree a whole year with all the different changes all the different uh time frames and uh coals hot the rain Etc and those there's actually six different seasons that are mentioned and the ashraq that that grows on the on the tree a whole year not only does it grow through all the different seasons it actually can able it has the power to tolerate all the seasons and not only does it able to tolerate the seasons it actually grows every single season every single different web a component of hot and cold and rain and whatever it may be all the different seasons actually cause it to grow and that's why it's so beautiful in other words not only does a different season doesn't weaken it but in the country it grows quantitatively and qualitatively stronger and that is the ultimate unity of an asteroid that it unifies all the different seasons in other words from all the different seasons becomes one it becomes the asterisk so the asterisk is a product of Multiplicity and it creates Unity out of it so that's the connection where the Metro says that s rig is the first Hashem when we know it's referring to the asteroid which is connect to actors Oneness and has that powerful component for sending applies to the love what is tomorrow so Kappa is actually just pays off without evolve and what does that mean so the kazal tell us it comes from kaplace in other words that the leaves have to be where in a way where they basically they're connected one was the other you know as they're connected with the sin in other words even though there are plenty of there are plenty of trees that the leaves are close to the tree but it's not in the way of where it's one where total actors like the little love so against you see that what's the connection between a little bit because it's broken because it has actors has Oneness has and just like the the little way the branches grow and one is to to the uh to the stem and the same thing applies to adasan the Myrtle and as it says enough HIV obvious you know this wasn't me nobody is that there's three in every single level there's three that come out from the same place even though the three different leaves each one is separate so it's a lot it's three in other words because the fact is you know is the minimum of of of of Multiplicity is two and here you have three but nevertheless it it's it's almost like brain is almost like together because it comes out from one area so you see again that the hadasem have the Unity part and the same thing also applies to the will the willow RV knuckle and the talmud is called what does it mean because it grows in a Brotherhood it knows even though and so it's RV it's plural multiple multiple Willows but nevertheless they grow in a unity and this and and they and that's those the way they grow the way they grow together they grow into urine now so what do we see from here that every one of these the esri the little of the hadasma rabbis have the powerful component of axis of unity now the union takes place in the four speed species what does that mean it's unity and those even though really small Simplicity Esther goes throughout the year the little of those multiple branches and the audacity is also multiple and I and Arava is also the there's many are revoked but what happens they all have the component that for many they become one and like for example in the S rig that the the six different seasons of the year that each are different and opposite but nevertheless they unify they become one they become one essric the same thing also when it comes to the love this so we say that kapois in other words there's there's multiple uh couples there's multiple different ones and they become one and the same thing also with the hand with the hadassem there has to have they need to have three different leads on each level but nevertheless they come out of one what what one spot uh one level the same thing also when it comes to our Robo is even though there's multiple otherwise but nevertheless they are what they are unified now so what have we learned so far the power of the four species are that's all about actors and that's the connection with Russia explaining she's like this this is the connection of taking the four species with the holiday Sukkot why because what is Shalom circus is all about peace like we know which has natalma that the whole Jewish people could live in one sukkah or for example it's brought down it says that that the Sukkot is connected to the Ark of Noah which is just like a suck it was a tent for them to live and the Arkham Noah we see that all the animals lived in peace just like when this could be like where mashiach comes so sukkah is connected to what idea of Peace what does it mean peace that's for multiplicity you have Unity so what do we see from here that also applies in reference to the holidays to goat like it says in the beginning of the discourse that what is what does it mean that in the circle we should all sit we should all be unified that for multiple people we get you we we we we all get along and that's why seven days what is the idea of seven days because seven is multiplicity day one day two day three seven different days and every single day is different than the other day every single day has its own energy but nevertheless they also divide up the time time every single day is different and as we know that the seven days are called seven days of that that that that surround the Jewish person's life and that's why for example every single day when we do the prayers we say today is the first day I'm saying the second day I notice every single day is different so the question is answered this is one second from when God created the world till today there's been thousands tens of thousands of these so I think it's day one day two we should we should say what number date is but the answer is because of today's which constantly they repeat itself every single day repeats itself every every single week in other words that even though everyone days is different and every one of the days is unique and everyone in the days has its own identity but nevertheless they all become one they all become so the power of God we see is that what you have seven days every day is different but they overcome one now to explain this idea in other words the connection of the four species together with cognitive gold and a deeper level an Arabic science is this the unity that takes place of the four species answer goat is not only that we take multiple different things and they become unified but it's actually real Unity that you cannot even divide it so there's two levels in unity one is where for take for example the s word it grows through different seasons okay guess what you have one answering a deeper level of unity which actually won in others where do we see that when it take when you have the Mitzvah of the four species besides the fact of the unity in the essric the unity in the in the rule of in the unions each one on its own which basically you're taking multiple things and unifying it but what happens then is when you take all four together it becomes one Mitzvah it's not four different phase it's one Mitzvah that's comprised of an extra glue of Adas so ultimately you have initially it's multiplicity becomes one but then you have one Mitzvah one Mitzvah is the ultimate in unity in other words even though it's four different species and totally different like the Metro says that the the everyone the species is different that the four species in the love apply our corresponds and a four different types of Jewish people like for example you have the the type of a Jewish person it's like the Esser what's the s rig so we you know when an S drug um it has a taste and it has a smell what does that mean spiritually for the Jewish people someone that learns Torah and someone that has good deeds then you have the Arava the willow that doesn't have no taste no smell that means you're lacking no Torah no mentally but nevertheless from all from these extremes of toyran Mitzvahs no tournament which is just Terror adjustments twice they become one they become one what does that mean become one they become one and here's the key word they're unified they're unifies to do the will of Hashem now this type of unity because they all become one to do the will of Hashem that is the ultimate and that's the true Unity where there's no division there and as you have multiple people that unify with one Mission so it's not like this person well we all have one Mission so the ultimate the four species the old gathering together do one mitzvah so that's the next level of unity reference to the four species but the same thing applies to the unity of the sick itself because after the Torah says basukas Jesus what we learned before there are seven different things but unifying to one Circle but it's multiple comes one um the unity of different things that's the ultimate unity that's a true Unity which is above any level of differences based on this Robert says we're going to understand the connection between the holidays to Goat where it says you should celebrate for seven days in the midst of sitting in the sukkah and the Mitzvah of taking the four species with the idea that the Torah says in references to Gold what is the holy spirit called khaga ossif to how they have gathering together when you gather in the grain from the field one because what's Gathering Gathering is unity in other words initially it was the stalks grains all over the place and then you unify it and what's the part of what's the point of khaga Asif to unify it they should become one now what we learned before there's two levels of unity just like in a circle there's two levels of unity and the four species like we learned before such as the one hand there's multiple to become one and then becomes one Mitzvah telling also with the sukkah it's it's multiple seven days that become the one sukkah and then there's the ultimate one Circle in other words so first you gather in multiple different uh grains like for and then you have in in each grain you gather in different grains whether it's grain whether it's uh wine or oil Etc but then you gather it all in together all all three together into the house so initially when you start out you don't take you you don't take a mix of grain with the wine with the oil you take all the grain then you bring all the wine and you bring the oil but also what happens at the end you bring it all three together into the house now all these components happen after the spiritual work of the month of tishrai the month of tishray tishrich has four letters soft Shin ratios and which basically is the same letters as racist the beginning what does that mean the first you have the 10 days between roshani Yom Kippur that's the first 10 days of tesseri and when we say 10 by default we think when you say 10 days I mean you're saying this one there's two three except yeah till 10. so 10 represents division different days everything gets connected to the one day one day of the year Yom Kippur it's quite we know the Torah calls it one day in the year after Yom Kippur so then you go to the four days between Yom Kippur and sagot and that's prepares you to fulfill the Mitzvah of sitting in the sukkah and taking the four species including also gathering together all your work from the field what is that spiritual service when that takes place when that takes place before the holiday of before the holiday Circle because you don't gather now so in other words whatever says like this you have like this you have the you have the first 10 days of tishray one's it's multiplicity what happens becomes one one day of the year then after Yom Kippur we have the four days before the circus you have to Gathering Together everything and then you come to him then you come to Sukkot and everyone says there's a major difference between the Oneness on Yom Kippur and the Oneness on the circus what's the difference by Yom Kippur it's one but guess what onion Kippur there's no eating and there's no drinking you're totally disconnected from the world and especially when you come to the the ELO the last praying Yom Kippur as we know a Yom Kippur it's the Jewish people in Hashem one and that's that's the meaning of the Ilah all the gates are closed the only thing that Sears the Jewish people on God now so that's what happens you have the Oneness but we're not there yet why because we know that when Hashem created the world he had a plan he had a vision he wanted to have a deer but that's telling him he wanted to have a Dwelling Place in this world so we have to complete God's dream God's wish to make a dwelling place so it's not enough to have like Jim Kippur we totally disconnect from the world the goal is to bring down the unity into the world into the physical world into the food into the drink into the materialistic world into into everything physical in this world starting from the point of gathering all the the Grain and and the and the wine and the oil from the fields now even though it's a spiritual service like we said before that remember when I said it's all about a spiritual service but the fact is it's connected with the physical Gathering of grain wanting all at a literal level and the same thing also was sitting in a sukkah because we know that the the covering for the soccer has to be from from from from grain or from from your Vineyard and not only that but you cannot have the actual grain or the actual grapes it has to be from the uh from the soilus like from the from the uh from the shaft of the of the Grain and from the unions from the vineyard and the same thing also when it comes to taking the four species you can't go ahead and have the greatest meditation and and meditate on the idea of the four species no you have to literally take the four species and as you can't just do it with your emotions now even though that the four species come from things that grow and we know things that grow is the emotions and you can't even accomplish it by the by the spiritual uh avoid of malchus even though when you shake the little Vanessa um you're you're you're drawing down into malchras of of Zar which is which is which is in the chest of Zara but you need to have physical four species and you have to literally bang it against your physical chest because the ultimate goal is to bring it in to the physical world and that's why it says to how they have Gathering when you gather in all the corn and all the all the all the grain from the fields because you have to bring everything together the goal of circuses to unify everything make everything one and how does that happen how do you start it it starts when you gather in on a spiritual level all the ideas of Torah as we know all the spiritual work that we do it all starts with Torah why is that because it says clearly when Hashem created the world he looked into the Torah Torah is the key Torah is the start of everything As We Know how do you have to why do you have to gather in Torah because when it comes to Torah it says there's six hundred thousand commentaries on a simple level and then the 600 000 commentaries on on on the the different remorse and different uh hints in the Torah descending also when it comes to a Jewish homolytics and saying also when it comes to different secrets in the Torah and what has to happen is you have to gather all the different insights of the upshot of the little uncertain and also the insides of the remnants the secrets of turtle and also of drawers of different homologics and also the secrets of her and you have to gather them all together and unify every single part of Torah and that's why it says you should gather the grain the wine the oil now so there's a physical glove what is on a spiritual level so we know grain is referring to bread on a physical level what does it mean on a spiritual I was referring to revealed part of Torah t-reich which is wine that is the secret to the Torah and yitza which is oil is the secrets of the Secret Santa so what is our spiritual service of gathering in the grain the wine and the oil which basically referring to the revealed planetary secrets and the secrets of it's on two levels one is that you take from the multiplicity and you create one which basically is the concealed part the revealed part is harder to concealed and and the conceal that are concealed but also to unify all three of them together and to bring them to a level where there's no there's no revealed concealed and conceal the teal up to the level of where it's all won and then even higher than that now even though the river says this idea of unifying everything to the level it's really really all one when is that going to happen comes because we know mashiach comes he's going to teach the whole Jewish people the whole Torah and he's going to teach us the secret to the Torah and the secrets of the secrets like it just prophets clearly yes and Rashi says what does that mean that that in the future Messiah comes that's going to be revealed secretary and all the secrets are the secrets and it's going to be not in the way we're going to hear it we're literally going to see we're going to have Clarity in the secrets of the total now but nevertheless since um it says those are tasted that will Merit life in other words so therefore we will have a a a taste of it we could have today and as he could have and everything we should have we have to be able to experience a taste of that Unity today seriously even though yes the ultimate unity we're told one that's coming we're not gonna be able to see it on fields but we can taste it we can experience it that is it's all one and from this idea of gathering the corn the grain the the the the the the the the the wine and the oil the way it's on a terror level but it's all one the reveal the consequence of Terror so we drew through this we draw down that which was able to be here gathering in the the the grains and the wine and the oil and all our service of Hashem on a spiritual level and up to the point where it comes down and so when we do it on a spiritual level we learn terrible we unify toe we connect the Torah that will cause us to have all the blessings of all the grains that we need all the wine we need all the oil we need on a little literal level a materialistic success materialistic wealth Etc and the same thing also in reference to the unity of sitting in the sukkah and it was after this after the first goal is where South to create the ultimate unity again through learning Terror Etc and that will bring all the blessings but the same applies to the unity of sukkah which also two levels in other words yeah sitting in the circle for seven days which in others the unity which is connected to seven different days and the next level of every resident will sit in which doesn't say seven it means it's ultimate unity when is that going to happen the highest level of unity scrap mashiach comes and as we know German says that in the future Ezra constant the word also of which it's going to shine in the future is totally going to shine but nevertheless we do have a ray from it today and like the uh rev Mirage explains that this that in the future foreign it's going to shine it's going to be in with the Jewish people are going to experience it and internalize it but even today we have the power of Yeshua to sit in the sukkah and it's and it comes all into us in a way of of of of sukkah hovers over um that powerful energy and the same thing also when it comes to the four species as we know taking the four species after you sit in the sukkah and those every one of the species as we learned before from the powerful murderous is referring to Assam we also have it today but now it's on a concealed level but this powerful nation is going to be what when mashiach comes as you know mashiach comes it says the glory of Hashem will be revealed the road literally the flesh will see it and what's going to happen then is we're going to gather in the corn the grain the wine the oil and a whole different level and others we're not going to even have to gather it in that with the Jews you're gonna have to gather it because it says in the prophets that strangers are going to come and they're going to take care take care take care of our cattle and and the aliens are going to go ahead and plow the fields and take care of The Vineyards and even they're sitting in the sukkah it's going to be in a whole different level comes because we're going to sit in the circle what's the circle say we have wood then we have plastic and many materials can be made out of the skin of the theoson the Leviathan and all for this idea that Hashem in the four species is all going to be revealed way like it says in in the talmud the way I'm written that's the way that's that's the way that's what we're going to say it today it's written you came off came we don't say we say I'm denying but when mashiach comes the way it's written that's what we're going to say it because it's all going to be revealed but the fact is even though when mashiach comes it's going to be a much greater and much more powerful Revelation but we do have some level of it today as well and like during like we learned before that Kola salvation research because every um uh residents gonna sit in a circle we learned before is referring to the powerful Revelation it's going to be in the future but nevertheless we do have some of it today and how much more so when specifically when we're at the end of galot where the right before nashia is coming that we're literally left River says very very few seconds left minutes seconds left and the and the Torah promised us that the end is going to be that the Jewish people are going to return and the minute we return we're going to be redeemed right away and it's going to happen and like you're classically finishes off and with gladness of Hearts so here you have another beautiful powerful discourse in honor of the Congress of codes how we we can connect to the idea of gathering in unifying to learning Terror and that will give us the greatest blessings and by sitting in the sukkah which basically is creating the real unity and that will give us also the greatest Revelations and blessings compared to what's going to be like in the future comes and Gathering all the four species creating Unity for multiplicity and ultimate unity that we could experience say on some level and let's hope and pray like during the finishers often says that um a law Merit that to this powerful time when we're all going to return such as Rojo and Hashem is going to take us out of golus and and we'll go with with joy and gladness of heart and God's willing our next class will be in your shalam earaches have a great happy and unified
