Rosh Hashana - Holding on to the Throne

you're listening to the weekly partial podcast with ari goldwag recording with hashem's never ending assistance in roma bishop israel 57 80 2020. this week is rosh hashanah and we don't have a parsha this week but i'd like to share with you some thoughts about rosh hashanah some ideas that perhaps we can take with us we can hold on to we can hold on to as we walk into rosh hashanah 57 81 while praying for a much better year it's hashem and how do we get that year how do we hold on to the kisiat covet how do we hold on to the throne of god's glory what is the idea of holding on what is the idea of the kingship of hashem what is the idea that on rosh hashanah we spend so much time in any kipper making hashem into our king from his idea of chuva we're entering into a series of ten days of repentance rosh hashanah is the first day yom kippur is the last of those 10 days rosh hashanah tells us that during those 10 days we can turn around the entire zero whatever negative decrees that heaven forbid exists either for us for cloud israel we can turn them around we can flip them so that we be we are written into the book of good life and how do we do that the gemara tells us if a person merits and has an affordable explain if a person does chufa if a person repents then a person indeed can merit to be written and inscribed into the book of good life for the coming year tough shin pay alec 5781 so i'd like to share with you an amazing amazing major which i saw it's quoted in the orchestra in the beginning of chapter 26 26 says gomatria yudkevke the name of hashem it's the shara chuva it's the section where he speaks about shuva and this magis you gotta hear it it's unbelievable aina mentioned ella darshani like most midrashim it needs explanation and i've been i've read it already a few times i discussed it with my son moshedov like to share with you some thoughts so my thoughts maybe something from what my son has said as well [Music] and it says like this hachuva he speaks about the very beginning of the chapter if you want to see it's in safer sadiq get a hold of it it's a beautiful beautiful piece um is awesome true is something that's incredible when a person does shiva it brings them and helps them to be able to touch the divine throne the throne of god's glory shnema so pasuk you know shaya perak yodali pasuk peace shiva israel return o israel until hashem your god how does one reach how does one get to god how do we reach until god to where he is as it were to his throne of glory it's through the uh the concept of suva return we're going to read this pasta this coming shabbos i'm sorry in shabbos in a week okay but what is the idea of shiva israel returning to hashem getting to his divine covetous divine throne rap is saying our sages tell us and this is the which i think is just awesome when moshe rabbenu he went up onto harsina he went he went up to heaven in order to receive the torah so he went up three times the first time was when he received the lucas we shine as the first set of lucos the first set of the tablets and then the jewish people sinned on shavasana thomas 40 days later they worshipped the golden calf he went back up for another 40 days to ask for forgiveness he went back up a third set with 40 days 120 days altogether and he came back down on yom kippur and he brought the second set of luchos which represented god's forgiveness hashem forgiven the jewish people and indeed they would be receiving the torah this this relation this that represented the relationship that hashem wanted to create between himself and the jewish people between him and us now kisha allah almighty harish in order to get there in order to get to the heavens to receive the torah samosa bano had to ascend seven seven heavens seven levels so jalal harishan listen to what happened amazing description matsuki in the first heaven first level he found classes of angels he found groups of angels pascular fun of safer torah they opened in front of him the secretary of karo maisie omission they read them from the torah what it says about the creation that hashem performed on the first day of creation he created the heavens and the earth he created light and darkness day and night um they finished the first day they finished speaking about what happened on the first day and they began to tell him about the praise of the torah and i don't think we're going to get to there's another major which he quotes immediately after this one this is a long piece but it's beautiful it's so cool such an interesting piece but the measure says that there were seven things it's there were seven things that preceded the world and these are the seven things basically the seven things that preceded the world that existed before the world was created the first of them is the torah and they told him about the torah okay so he got to the next level of the heaven as he's climbing um he found bundles of angels the current mindset they told him about what happened on the second day of creation they finished talking about the second day of creation and then they went and proceeded to tell moshe rabino about the praise of the torah and about the people of israel interestingly here they continued and he spoke about the torah as well they had spoken about it previously and he spoke about the jewish people and it could be and this is what my son said which i think is i think is the shot he said that first is the torah of hashem so to speak the terror that's in heaven it's the turkish that's that's inscribed in stone but then there's a terror of israel hashem gives us the territory in order to understand the torah the tarshival path the terror the oral tradition that which we understand that which we're able to extrapolate from the torah which is given to us okay so there's a terror itself and then there's the terror which is given to claudius to develop so moshe was told about that by these angels he went up to the third level um excuse me you found these angels and and battalions battalions of angels that were reading about the third day they were they told him about what happened on the third day of creation what was the third thing amazing thing that they told him about jerusalem which is the base hamikdash the temple reveal you found other types of angels that were talking about what happened on the fourth day of creation hashem created the what was the fourth thing that the angels told them about they told him about the messiah perhaps he told that the person in the other measures should refer to as this the name of the name of the messiah i was talking about for the time period to the fifth heaven the fifth level is encampments more and more angels talking about the fifth day they were reading from the torah telling him about the fifth day of creation and then they stopped they completed talking about the fifth day of gehenna and they i'm sorry the fifth day of creation and they told him about the sadness of those or the sadness of gahannam of hell or of those who are in that fiery place got to the sixth level the sixth heaven and he saw that there were malachim there they were reading about the sixth day of creation when hashem created the animals the human being is completed that and they told him about the garden of eden the awesome creation of hashem the garden of eden and they were praying mushroom heard them praying that hashem should put the jewish people's portion in ganeden they got to the seventh heaven which is the final one of all of them he saw all the different types of angels more angels the different types of angels angels of mercy malachi angels of kindness and charity and also the the angels that cause a person to shake with fear it says the mantra is an amazing thing immediately he held on to the kisa covered onto the onto the onto the throne of hashem's glory it's reminding me it just it's it's hitting me on rosh hashanah and onion kipper in the santa it's the day of judgement and myself being who saw them shaking saw them saw that fear and he held on to the kise covered onto the throne of hashem's glory which is interesting because how do you hold on to hashem's throne there's a gemara in shabbos there's also gumara in sukkah talks about the fact that ishtar vuvelay you can't touch hashem's throne you can't reach there too far it's it's something that you can't reach hashem hashem there's a place that you can't touch it's too far away it's the heavens it belongs to god but mushroom got there right mushroom touched the key says so how did that work it stretched out hashem stretched it out because maisha rabbano was threatened as everyone shabbos explains myself came up there and the angel said what is this son of man doing here what's he doing here he doesn't belong here he's going to take the tire the tire belongs to us and hashem stretched out his kise akavid as is described there as it were the throne of glory was stretched out mushroom held on i hear this he held on this is the key of what we're talking about here measurement held on to the throne of glory and what happened is christ as he held onto the throne of glory and we're going to find out how to hold on to the throne of glory very soon they they read to him from vallejo vasquez read all about shabbos how sham wrestling on the seventh day and my shirt heard about shabbos i told him and then told him about chuva they told them about chuva this is how you get to the kisa cover you want to know how to hold on to the giza coven it's through chuvalo it says the magic this teaches you covered you can't get you can't get to the keysight covered it gets you all the way until the keys are covered perhaps not not quite there because you can't it's too high you can't get there but you can mamish hold on hashem will stretch out that throne of hashem's glory and you can hold on to it how they explained him through truvashanema israel return o people of israel until hashem your god through chuva we can return to hashem what's what's the magic saying what's the depth of the measures these seven different places seven different levels all the different all the different things they talked about tyra they talked about claudius charlie talked about gehan and they talked about ghanaian they talked about he talked about you shall i talked about chuva what what is what is the magic teaching us i think that you know before before we get to what i think before we get to what i think the magician is saying which is just awesome it's so moving so touching there's a gemara in rosh hashanah i think it's tessa we make hashem our king and we're talking about the throne of hashem the throne which literally literally means a seat of honor hashem sits on his seat of honor he sits on his throne this exalted an awesome throne he's raised up we're trying to reach up to that to that throne we're trying to say hashem i want you to be my king. we say three things in the most of of rosh hashanah is so important so important to understand these this is this is the the beginning of the whole year this is the crown of the year this is the kesser that's when we make hashem our king and in so doing we say hashem this is what i want my ear to look like this is what shiva is about so hear this clear says we say that we make hashem our king that's what hashem asks of us make me your king. hashem wants us to say zacharias he wants us to remind him of something he wants us to remind him of the al-qaeda of the sacrifices the jewish people have made throughout the years so many losses because so many times we are killed because we're jews so many times christians muslims all all other types of people kill us because we're jewish kiss the cross or die no we'll kiss the cro we'll we will not kiss the cross we will die all right we will die so many times without killing us don't forget we made you our king for the command of the king don't forget that hashem don't forget that but we also talked about the cyphers to schaefers i'm very moved when we talk about the schaefer show for the schaefer is such an awesome thing it brings up says the gemara vampire schaefer the schaefer brings up art felis right to this ride on the sound of the schaefer all the way up to to the lyft kisiah covered in front of the keysight covet you know you can't have a gold mouthpiece you can't have a gold mouthpiece on a sheifer you can have a gold you can have a silver mouthpiece but not a gold mouthpiece why because gold represents the golden calf it represents din represents judgment we don't want hashem to remember the golden calf on yom kippur we don't the the kangaroo would come into the naive left name right in front of hashem's throne in the in the best he would wear white clothing even though he usually wore golden vestments when he was inside of the all in the rest of his come inner chamber in front of hashem's throne only white the purest of the pure the schaefer can't have on it any gold because it comes that sound comes with neither of them it comes and we are transported with the scheifer our felis are transported in front of hashem it has to be so pure there can't be any gold there it has to be white it has to be has to be pure so we get there in front of hashem's throne on rosh hashanah when we blow the shaffer and when we say the scheifers these feel us we're grabbing on to hajjam's throne it's reminding us wake up wake up return to me do chuva make me your king make me your king that's the gemara in rosh hashanah nasty mauro i have to share with you um i'm not completely sure why i'm so emotional talking about this but part of it is you know i've taken two tests for corona hashem both came back negative and i'm traveling in order to be able to lead a congregation that i've led for almost 15 more than 15 years in the states and uh and uh we're all we're all facing off with this challenge parnassa health all these things that we want and it it all depends on us what it's going to look like for the coming year so we want to grab on we want to grab on to the keysight cover we want to grab on to that throne we want to grab on to that throne and this is the secret i believe that this is the secret right here in this major and the secret is that we need to go through these steps what is chuva look like juva looks like changing juva looks like making a shamar king karate we admit we did something wrong specific these are the things i've done wrong make a list i feel bad i've done something dude i've done these things wrong kabbalah i'm gonna change i'm gonna change i'm committed to change that's my commitment for this year i'm committed to change that's what chuva looks like but this magician is saying that there's other there's other things because chuva brings us in front of the kisiah covered and when we get in front of the keys it's a scary place to be there's all these angels saying what are you doing here you don't belong here you're a mortal you're a human being you're you're uh you're so low you have all these types of all these desires you have all these uh you're involved in your honor you don't have where's your keeper of aim where's your honoring your parents where's where where's every you know what are you doing here mike charbeno says yeah exactly exactly the tires written for us where do you have problems with keyboard of aim this is going to be do you have issues with with jealousy and quotes to them all the ten commandments well that's there's a difference do you have issues with uh with uh idolatry uh yes for idolatry do you have any of these issues and we're like no we don't this tire was written for us so we can hold on to the throne we need to make hashem our king but i believe that it's it's more than that it's all of these seven things an awareness of these seven things the angels were giving him step by step how do you get to chuva how do you get there number one they told them about torah tyra you gotta learn tara you gotta know what hashem's will is for you you got to know what what our place in the torah is what our opportunity is how we interact with the torah how we understand the torah what our ghazal taught us you got to learn gemara you gotta learn tanakh you gotta learn gomorrah you gotta know you gotta know what hashem wants from you number three you gotta know about you shalom how important it is the best we don't have that relationship we don't have you shalom all we have is a wall a broken wall and behind that is a a golden temple of of ishmael it's a terrible embarrassment that we're missing what are we missing we're missing our true relationship with hashem you've got to know about meshiach you got to know about meshiach who is mashiach you gotta know in order to do juve you gotta know we're waiting for mashiach waiting for his gala hashem this is what we're waiting for we're waiting for hashem to reveal himself for the entire world to and you gotta know about getting them you gotta know that if we don't do what we're supposed to do we're going to burn we shouldn't get there we should do juve and we don't we won't have to go there we'll repent and we don't have to go there but you got to know that that's that exists and you got to know about ghane then that there's a reward when we do what's right there's a reward and the malachi in our mind is being misfolded they're so nice so beautiful they're being misspelled that we all get there every single jew call israel we all have a portion there they're out there they're rooting for us keval it's so beautiful and then you want to get to to to level seven which is you can't sit you know you can't really you're you're you can't ever get to the kisa because it's it's beyond i have to know what this means i've i can't get into it it's it's involving kabbalistic ideas which i'm not going to explain right now but you can hold on to the kisses you can hold on to the keys covered as the angels are saying what are you doing here you don't belong here what are you doing here you don't belong here you can hold on to the kise through chuva once you've gone through all these things and you understand the greatness of terror the greatness of clouds through the greatness of the of of all these different things mashiach you shall aim cannon once you get once you get those things you get what it's about you know what it's all about these things were there before the world was created these things are the foundation these things are beyond you're attaching yourself to something which is beyond you are attaching yourself to something which is so higher so much higher he stretches out his kise so that you can hold on and that's how you get there is through chuva by repenting by admitting what you've done wrong making hashem your king make me your king remind me of all the things all the sacrifices that you've made the sacrifices the hardships the troubles remind me i want you to remind me because i keep those things in my storehouse that's where you became when you admit that it came from hashem troubles the hardships it's from hashem you're making him your king and you return and you say i'm ready with the scheifer i'm listening to the shot for god you are my king hashem you are my king and i'm standing right there i'm transported with the scheifer i'm transported with the chuva with chuva and fila utstaka these things get us mama's right in front holding on to the kisa covered holding on so i want to bless you i ask you to bless me hashem should help us do real chuva really be mom with him make him our king this year tough shinpei alev last year this time i told you the word te freitzi yaminus maltif wrightsi the gamache of the word to foreign means to to burst out to expand also which means that we are we are connected to hashem we are his fan hebrew is a fan we are we are the ones who represent them in this world certainly hashem has showed us throughout this year young small to freight see that things can expand in a in an uncomfortable way in a way which is a pizza a pizza which means it's just expanding expanding expanding and he's showing us that he's in charge he showed us that's hashem tarisi but it's it's for what it's so that we connect and remember him we make him our king tafshinpe alif it's it's a new year it's a new year and we are we are now heading in and how we approach this year how we may our hashem to the extent that we're hashem that's how our year is going to it's going to look that's how it's going to be decreed so again i bless you hashem should bless me and you and all of us hashem should help us that tough shin payal should be a valid awesome year a year of health a year of parnasso a year of cure was elekim of closeness to god a year of growth and year of juva
