Shalom and welcome back to our paras.
We find that when the bikurim is
bringing his bikur and saying the
necessary to say as he brings the one of
the things he says is that I've not
forgotten says rashi what does it mean
that he's not forgotten
I've not forgotten to go ahead and make
the over is necessary ask and the name
of the
and multiple other places in where do we
find any connection between and the idea
of making a the says that I've not
forgotten. How does Rashi know?
I've not forgotten means that I've not
forsaken the that's necessary to make
prior to being what's the connection
between between forgetting and making a
main way to do a mitzvah is not just to
go ahead and to do the mitzvah
to just do it in a way by row do it in
robotic fashion without going ahead and
doing it with the main way to do a
mitzvah is when a person is filled with
and a person's filled with passion when
he's doing the mitzvah. A person's
excited about doing the mitzvah. A
person's joyous over doing the mitzvah.
That is the way that a person is
supposed to doing a mitzvah. But says
this is it's not enough just at the time
of the mitzvah to be excited about doing
the mitzvah because that's going to be
difficult to bring up the feelings just
at the moment of doing the mitzvah that
I'm excited about doing the mitzvah.
Rather says this
the more a person is desiring throughout
the day to go ahead and do the mitzvah,
the easier it will be for him to be able
to do the mitzvah in a way which is
proper. When a person doesn't just fall
into the mitzvah, a person goes in and
prepares himself properly for the
mitzvah. A person is longing and
yearning and waiting to do the mitzvah.
That itself allows a person that when
they come to actually perform the
mitzvah, they do it in a way of a simple
example. A person's going ahead and blow
and going to hear the mitzvah of the to
hear the r says this. It's not enough
just to hear the with the level of like
the very famously brought down the felt
tremendous during it's not enough. A
person has to go out and be mistic yearn
to be able to be in the mitzvah of
hearing the in the days preceding rash.
And the more that a person goes in is
the more that a person is yearning to be
mitzvah the more when the mitzvah comes
to his hand a person will be able to be
m in a way of and it's like this with
every single mitzvah. There's a for the
mitzvah. There's a preparation for the
mitzvah which is not only the practical
preparation that's necessary have to go
ahead and buy the material necessary to
be able to be the mitzvah but it means
the internal the internal excitement the
internal anticipation that a person has
to be able to go ahead the more that a
person is the more that a person is
yearning to be the mitzvah says
then he'll be able to do it in a way
which is proper says this is what the is
prior to doing a mitzvah
And every every mitzvah that we do that
contains within it a the is there not
just simply to go ahead and to remind
ourselves what we're doing but the braha
is there to show our excitement to show
that we're preparing ourselves to show
that we want and are excited to go ahead
and
every single one of us
say is to do whatever mitzvah we're
going to do
to show the to show the love and
excitement that we have and therefore
even prior to going ahead and doing the
mitzvah there's a for the mitzvah the
for the mitzvah says is the leading up
to it and the way that that comes out
practically is through the and therefore
according to every time a person is
going to go ahead and do a mitzvah
obviously there should be a preparation
externally and a preparation internally
for the mitzvah an excitement and a
longing and anticipation to go out and
be in the mitzvah and ultimately the
person is going ahead and making that
braha prior to doing the mitzvah this is
the feeling that a person is supposed to
have I'm excited And the way that I'm
going to go ahead and express my
excitement is through the that I'm going
to make thinking the for giving me the
opportunity to be able to go ahead and
be able to
mad us with the mitzvah that he
commanded us. And therefore I show my
excitement and I express my desire to do
the mitzvah by going ahead and making
the prior to the mitzvah.
Says this is what the is but
says this is not just the anticipation
leading up to the mitzvah. When a person
does the mitzvah properly then the
mitzvah remains with the person the
whole day.
brings down the
which says that the mitzvah
says this doesn't just mean the mitzvah
like the was discussing mitzvah and the
mitzvah
on a general basis they were able to but
says every mitzvah that you do if you're
this individual mitzvah if you're
excited about the next ding that you're
going to the next opportunity you have
to be able to go ahead
if you're excited about the next mitzvah
that you're going to do. Not only are
you going to be able to do the mitzvah,
but that imprint from the mitzvah is
going to last with a person the whole
day. Why? Because a person is being to
do that mitzvah to do it in a way
is there with a person forever. And
therefore, according to there's three
things that take place every time a
person does a mitzvah. There's the
anticipation. There's the preparation,
the which ultimately culminates with the
brah that a person makes prior to going
ahead and doing the mitzvah. But it's
the excitement. It's the longing. It's
the yearning that a person has prior to
doing the mitzvah. The excitement that a
person feels the night before he's going
to go ahead and shake. The night before
he's going to go ahead and sit in the
sukah. The night before he's going to
hear. The night before he's going to do
a shak and put on whatever mitzvah a
person has in front of him. the
excitement that a person has prior to
doing the mitzvah that then leads a
person to go ahead and to do the mitzvah
and to do the mitzvah to do the mitzvah
and when you do it that way then it's
than anything that has to it remains
forever and because I'm aim
it's going to last not just at the time
that I'm doing the mitzvah but the
mitzvah has the ability to be matzah and
to be me the whole day it has the
ability to stick with me and not just
the whole day like this says
When the mitzvah is done with joy, when
there's anticipation for the mitzvah,
which allows me to do the mitzvah with
joy, then the mitzvah is able to stay
the whole day. Says, now it's obvious
and how we're able to understand what
the connection is between
doesn't just mean the itself means what
is the coming from? The as this teaches
us comes from the excitement and the
longing and the yearning that a person
has to do the mitzvah. And therefore
means that I didn't forget about the
mitzvah prior to being the mitzvah. I
was thinking and I was yearning and I
was talking and being excited about the
mitzvah prior to doing the mitzvah.
I didn't forget.
I didn't forget about the mitzvah
before.
And I didn't either forget about it
after because the rashima the imprint of
that mitzvah that I did remained with me
the whole day. And therefore understood
that is not just forgetting to go ahead
and take off my shaki means did you
forget about mscus prior to taking them
off and did you forget about them after
you took them off. Was it just something
that happened in one moment in time or
was this something that your day
revolved around? They're able to say my
day is looking forward to and after the
imprint of stays with me for the rest of
my life. Is it something that's just
here in a here in a vacuum or is it
something which there's an anticipation
there's an excitement there's there's a
longing to be mitz prior which
culminates like we said in the bra and
therefore it ends up lasting forever and
therefore as I understood means that I
didn't forget to make the braha not just
the physical not just the words of the
braha but I didn't forget about going
ahead and being excited about the
mitzvah that I'm doing prior to it and
therefore that allowed me to not forget
about it before doing the mitzvah and it
also led to me remembering about the
mitzvah even long after I already
finished completing the physical act of
the mitzvah. This is how this
teaches us what how a person is supposed
to do every mitzvah. Excitement,
anticipation, longing and yearning
to do the mitzvah culminating in the
before the mitzvah and then ultimately
allowing the light of the mitzvah to be
able to last with me forever because
it's something that is something that I
did something that I did and therefore
it's able to last forever. The mitzvah
that I've done remain with me forever
because I'm excited prior. I'm excited
when I'm doing them. And therefore, the
excitement and the joy that I had when I
did the mitzvah last with me forever
should help us to be able to mitzvah
properly and the proper not to forget
about the mitzvah and to be thinking
about them and preparing for them and
getting excited for the
to get excited for the for the
eating and sleeping in the to get
excited for these mitzvah. were able to
do that. They were able to make the
the were able to make these able to make
them properly and therefore be able to
take these and be able to take these
mitzvah that we do with us forever. Have
a great chabas.
