you're listening to the weekly partial podcast with Ari Gold wag record with us shrooms never-ending assistance in 5780 2019 this whose partial support is precious and we have the beginning of the terror abridges brother Kim mr. Shah - or it's in the beginning Hashem created the heavens and the earth and you know fortune go at length to explain the beginning of the tire of course the first pus of the first word the first letter of the parsha and i just share with you a few thoughts from the BA - rim because often about - and it's a saber which has to do with the gamut areas and has to do with deeper ideas and often it's a tum seat it's a concentrated version of what them of Fortune we're speaking about and I'd like to understand what it is that them unfortunately after what is the ballot Orem after what are we supposed to understand as we learn partial spaciousness we learn the first word of the Taira it's well in the first possibility the first part of the Taira what is the idea that we're supposed to learn so he started so he says yeshiva measures Chillicothe post-up Abby's villa by olive why is it try to start with the letter base we would think when I says be raesha s' in the beginning we would think of the Turk should begin butter olive the first letter of the alphabet so what's the ideal if he should base our election Bravo I love lush IIRIRA the Torah specifically chose Hashem when he wrote the Torah he specifically chose to begin a tour with a letter base why because the letter B's represents the concept of Braja of blessings as opposed to the olive interestingly which he said represents the concepts of curses amariah - were clifftop obeys blush and Bravo will eventually Youkilis cam said of Shem I'm creating this world and I want to start it with the cause of the bracha of blessing and hopefully the world will exist it will work it will work out double off hair this is another shot Chum snail I love mice I'll shame sorry I'll shame Schnee ulema shibaura what's the letter BAE's letter base besides sir I'm making a Bayes sound also ever since the number two and so I represent the fact that I could have spoken when God created the world didn't create just one world and just create the physical realm but rather Alma's a mile above God created this physical world and the spiritual worlds as well or really literally it's this world in the next world you created the world in its potential State which is the world that we experience today and he created a world which is to come the world to come which is also here in this earth but it's a more spiritual version of our world Dabra ashame State Terrace sent about to another possibility is we have the number two base is - why because of the fact that there are two different Tyra's where the tutor is terrific sad intership I'll pass the written Torah and the Oral Torah the Torah as we have it the five books of Moses the turneth etcetera that's the written Torah now internship at shovel pad which was also given on Hart sinaia Mount Sinai which is all of the it's subsequently been written down but it's the the Talmud the Gemara the Madras the they are the others for my condition the holy books of the Torah la Mettrie Hibiscus cetera villain dara Nero Harlem this isn't about an amazing thing what is the idea why is the letter base what is the letter bays why is it represent the two tires the Taira the terrible pad is Tasha pick salve the oral torah written Torah because it teaches us that it was for those who learn Torah for those who study God's Word who are interested in God's will it is for them that the world was created can I'd like to try to understand before we see a few more of the beautiful ideas of all term says but I want understand what is the idea I'm the fact that we have so many if you look at them of course you look around so there's a lot of discussion was the idea the first letter base what is the idea that we're braces will hopefully see some more of that or his idea of the entire the entire path up the bottom says in the continuation he says that there are seven words you know in the in the positive braces braces bara elokim as a shaman Vanessa are at seven words and it's twenty-eight letters and he gives a whole concept of what's the idea of seven what's the idea of twenty-eight what does this represent we have he tantalizes us with information that is omaha mela king solomon in in co helis which we just read recently in Ecclesiastes so there are seven circle of Isla ho it's the snow we have all the times the time to love a time to hate a time for war a time for peace etc all those times so there are seven verses there are 28 different times and they're hinted to over AB strong ml King Solomon's great wisdom was trying to hint to this post like this verse of ratios for what is the idea what is the concept what is the cash Evo's what is the significance of the first post the first verse there the first word embraces the first letter the base and the deep idea that's brought down which I've heard numerous times to remember Cuba tats he says that whenever you come to the beginning of something whenever you have the beginning the very beginning of something in that beginning is rooted the entire thing right his taco we find in stock about rice over Allah we just mentioned the idea that shun created the world for the London tire what is the idea the ideas of sham looked in the Turner and he created the world from the Turner the idea is that it's the blueprint it's a blueprint just like somebody who's who's building a building so first he creates a blueprint he maps out the entire building what it's going to look like how deep the foundations need to be in order to have a skyscraper you need to have deeper foundations and you need to be able to hold it up and all the different details are all written in that blueprint it's all massive Aquila might save myself Sheila we see the end of the creation we see the end of everything but it's rooted in the initial thought it's a noodle it's rooted in that initial way of thinking about things and the beginning contains everything that just as a muscle you know we find that a child a baby so in the very moment of conception so the the single cell contains within the DNA which is all of the information for the entire body to be built it's an amazing thing a beautiful thing because we created this awesome idea that you have in the first moments you have in the first moment of the human beings creation you have all the information for its entire life we also find house I'll tell us that I could borrow who showed autumn Irish in the very beginning this is something we mentioned before my show showed I don't I reached in the first man at the very beginning that the the sake for her Ottomans in it's in our parsha there's a safer there's a book in which she's written the entire told us all of the generations that would come from adoration from from that very first day from that very first moment of creation of Adam and Eve throughout all the generations each and every person who would ever be born that person's special awfully the personality what their purpose in life is exactly what they're supposed to accomplish of that exactly what the effect that they're supposed to have on the world every single person from the greatest person to the lowliest person is written there in that book of the Seifert also although the idea is again the same idea that whatever is in the beginning whatever is in the very moment of creation that remains for the entire creation that's just the the essence that some seat the the concentrated essence of what's going to happen later so now let's look at this again in in this light because we need to understand we have the first puzzle which contains the the beginning of everything we cherish - our session created right it's gonna tell it's gonna give us a whole list and the order of how could who created the world the verses are going to continue that way but the very first pussing itself contains the entire story race is rocky mr. Schwarz in the beginning action created heavens in the earth that includes everything that includes all the human beings and who's all the animals that includes all the cosmos this all the the the the billions of light-years of space that entire awesomeness unbelievable things from the all the cosmos all this is all the nebula all of the galaxies that's the the shaman and the earth itself this place that we live where human beings where life exists that was all created all of the all of the life of the plant life all the animal life all human life it was all in this pus it gets all in this possible not only some of the puzzle is in the word Boreas in the beginning as well soon see when it's created here I'll show you can forget for example okay you find the bottom says braces braces includes the concept of he said the kamacho braces is the same as the words brush Hashanah never but the world was created all on Shoshanna veracious the the letters of braces aren't a trick on there they're the first line basis bara rakia ashram I'm um - I'm if you take the letters of Britta's base race race I'll shine you tough bara rakia got created the heavens eros the earth shall I am the heavens yam time the Seas the deaths okay so each the very word itself up reaches contains all that it's going to say in the entire word and I'm sorry the entire verse the very letter bays itself as we said contains this as well it's the cause of the blessing into our world in order for it exists let's have blessings entire world in order for it to exist has to have the tyro it has to have the the - tire shop excited terrible pair and has to have this item has a and all my boys have this world in the next world so the idea is an amazing idea that that you have contained within the entire Torah is the blueprint for the entire world it's the it's the history of the Jewish people it's the history really of mankind and you're having to contain within the first verse all of that which will be created all that which was created yeah we contain within the first word all of that which is contained in the first verse and you have contained within the first letter itself okay so he had this amazing thing and that's the way my cousin barcoo Nicotra who is his Kyle how Carl himself God himself includes everything I would say about who he's a Nevada there's nothing besides for God which means that God Himself contains all of reality within him so to speak but it doesn't take away somehow from his unique unity doesn't take away from his oneness goddess doesn't that parts God is not like human beings somehow all of reality is contained within and something we can't possibly understand but it's true and in the same way it's beautiful it's a beautiful idea that the the very sucking of themselves the very versus the tire which is Hashem's will which is God's communication to us as to how we are to behave in his world how we are to interact with him it also has that same concept just as Hashem is one and he contains everything and as you go back further and further to oneness so you you come closer so to speak Tosha so it's when the tire itself the the entire turn describes all of reality the first verse describes all of reality there's no closer closer to oneness braces is oneness the word itself contains everything and the letter base contains everything as well and and I want to mention you know it's not exactly it's completely different concept the fruit very first facet that we spoke about the first qasida we didn't we started off with you said the base represents the causes of Bravo blessings the olive we didn't want to start with the olive but at the same time or cause I'll tell it's an amazing thing we have a serve a Mars liberal island or say you tell us that the world was created with ten statements if you can of the statements of Vienna on the Kim it says God said if you count them up there are ten times that it says God said but now there's an interesting thing because the tenth time actually is not a creative statement if you look at it carefully the tenth time cetera so it's not a creative statement if I a meerschaum says so huzzah won't understand what is the idea where is the first one we're missing the first world war were missing a tenth one it does I say that the temple is hinted to embraces breaches we're like a mrs. Lambeosaurus it doesn't say that God spoke and created and it doesn't say that it's it's called then it's nella it's hidden the first statement is a hidden statement and the same way the letter Aleph is also hidden letter and I'll explain soon what that means but our times I'll also tell us in you know whatever cause I'll say whenever I say to say something there's always a hint to something very deep and they tell us that the olive the first of the tire which is not here it's found in a different place what is the other place it's at the beginning of that search that difference is 10 commandments I'd like a shamrock fi sure it's cc-come here that's right I haven't shown you God it took you Adam Egypt and that too in a certain way is a hidden statement because it's not a command all the other Commandments are commanded by Sir it says don't kill I see enough don't commit adultery oh I see Saul don't steal etc those are Commandments and I can't shout like that is a statement we understand for the statement i'ma show me oh god I've took you out of Egypt it we're supposed to believe in God tl aha he might hear my opponent and I was it having the other gods you know to worship idolatry right but the statement 190th shaman is also similarly in a parallel way just like bridges Bora is not a statement of God's creation by younger God is saying I'm creating but rather it's it's an implied statement of creation mauritius Varla kim god created we don't see that he's there any statement that he said that the world will be created yet it's a hidden statement so too is true regardless and I can show the katfoe it's a hidden statements a hidden command I'm a sharer god it's an implied command so as we get farther back this is a very important idea as we get farther back closer and closer to the point of creation closer closer to the oneness we can't grasp anymore words can't contain it we can't use words they can't even hear the word barash I'm said we don't talk about volume here there's no statement of you shall do it's it's you need to understand what's there need to understand what's going on it's not something you have to use your your made and done any type of W enough to understand what the concept of bina with intuition sometimes you can't necessarily put your finger on you can't necessarily touch you can't necessarily hear the word volume there you can't necessarily hear the the command to believe in God you have to understand if I'm telling you that I am your God obviously you are to believe in me that's something you need to understand with your intuition with bina with with veena that's how we get back through bina which interestingly of course starts with a letter base through bina intuition we get back to the olive of chakra of wisdom which precedes vena but it's something we have to get to by filling in the blanks because we live in this world we live in a physical world we live in a world where it's not so easy to see a shell it's not like the time of adoration or the first man where God was openly a parent's guy openly spoke to him etc you know what to understand - and we need to read between the lines we need to find that Aleph which is not written which is implied but it's not explicit we need to find that initial statement that Hashem created the world as Shem is the one who took us out of Egypt he is our God and we are to believe in him but that final statement we are to believe in him is something that's implied in you to figure out on our own it's a very deep idea let's see there's anything else here in the in the bottom that I can share with you so I would like to tell you there's a few things here there's just beautiful precious Bartlett Kimmi points out say feet Amos m/s if you'd look at the last letter braces it's a soft Burroughs and olive and the Kim is a mem the idea is the last three letters are olive them tough MS hearings other places I share barley Kim I share Barra le Kim last says Baris an Aleph last letter that came as a man my size tough to the beginning and end of the creation - one who places his his his high summer cut as I refer to the fact that it's his stamp God's stamp as it were is ms is truth and again it's not something that's explicit you have to know about it you have to find it you have to see it but it's there for what we're looking at the very beginning the very end of the account which comes creation ms is there the truth is there this is the truth this is the ultimate truth the Turner's are feeling it okay so I just like to wrap up and I'd like to say that that what we see over here and the foundational concept which I'd like to bring across is that you know we're at the beginning of the year were holding the beginning of the tire up we have gone through Shoshana we've gone through Yom Kippur we've gone through circus the time of simcha a time of incredible joy we've had awesome experiences we've had we've had we've done chuva we've repented we come back into our relationship with Hashem we recommitted sells we've rededicated ourselves to a beautiful awesome new year and we need to understand we need to know that what we've gone through and it's still not over tissue eight is we still of another few days left of Tishrei but the beginning I call a holic after a scallop of course there's also a constant I call her a gumar everything goes by the end but whatever you find at the beginning is what you're going to find at the end or Vignan really says a beautiful thing he says the very end of the year if we look back right before Shoshanna if we look back over the year we can see we don't we don't know exactly as we pass the Rosh Hashana you get through that service maneuver we get to be mayadeen we don't know exactly what the dinner was what was it exam what did a Shem decide for us for this coming year we don't know but at the end of the year we do know and we can look back and we can see how much we've accomplished through a year how many blessings Hashem has brought to us throughout the year and all of that was decided last verse Hashanah and just now we had a dinner and we everything was decided was going to be in the coming year and we have to have tremendous at cars to save tremendous thankfulness tremendous gratitude for all that Shem did for us in the past year and we have to also have beat up him we have to know with with with a with a assuredness and a coach Bob who has is going to bless us with a beautiful year but we need to know that it all goes by what's going on right now at the very beginning of the year encapsulated within the beginning of the Taira is the entire Tyra and capsular excuse me encapsulated within the inside the beginning of this year is the entire year all that's going to come from now until the end of tough shinpei is already decided and so right here right now is the decisions that we make the commitments that we make what are we going to do this year what's going to be important to us this year what is the base for us that in Capulets that letter base the beginning of the Tyra is it blessings is it brockless is it Tyra is it I realize that I love my bow this world on the next row is that what our focus is what will encapsulate our entire year it's now that we make this decision we look at the beginning of the terror and turn spires us to decide what is our beginning what what will our entire year contain how will we be dedicated and to the to the to the extent and we make commitments I say I'm going to make a decision I'm going to learn every single day this year I'm going to learn 10 minutes a day an hour a day we're learning an emotive Gemara Dafa adavi me I'm going to study I'm gonna listen to a sheer every single day I'm gonna learn for an hour a day to our whatever a person can do but there's a beginning now and the decisions that I make today the decisions the dedication the commitments that I make now that has an effect on the entire year the Beza braces the braces my early chemists enshrinement so are its 7 letters as they're made of my five points out seven is the concept of Malthus represents the fact that Hashem is our King John created the entire world why so that we would acknowledge him as our king that's the beginning if we go into the year with that beginning with that beret shoes with that letter basil the base of breakfast the base of Tyrel the days of spirituality if we go in so then our Shem well certainly blesses with a wonderful year so what I bless you and ask you to bless me and should help us that we should be able to start the year right to make the right commitments to make a decision that this is going to be a year of rock aeneas a year of spirituality we're gonna start off with Tara as the main thing in our lives working on ourselves working on our meters working on all those things that are truly important which will bring us from I love my z-bo thank you so much for
