Vayakhel-Pekudei - The King's Crown

you're listening to the weekly partial podcast with ari goldwag recorded with hashem's neverending assistance in rubbish misha's refugee 781 2021. this week's parasha's parties vayakel and piku day and in our parsha we have the completion of the construction of all of the elements of the mishkan of the tabernacle and the verse tells us chapter 39 verses 32 and 33. all of the work of the creation of the tabernacle the tenth of meeting for the jewish people with god was completed by yesterday the jewish people did all that moshe abano had commanded them in the name of hashem gimmel viewers is they brought the mishkan to moshe rabbenu the tent all the different vessels cross across all the different parts that they created can go on to enumerate all of those parts of the mishkan that they had managed to assemble but for whom was the final assembly left it says rash he brings the medrash why did they bring it to moshe why did they bring it to bitsala why didn't they bring it to the location where it was to be erected they brought it to moshovin moshe abbey they the jewish people tried but were unable to stand it up officially since moshe had not done any of the actual malacha the construction of the parts of the michigan himself hashem left the actual standing up of the mishkan to be done by moshe it was impossible for any human being to be able to stand up the the beams and the different parts the physical structure of the mission was extremely heavy no one else could pick them up the jewish people brought all the parts in front of moshe for him to indeed do this to stand it up but she said i can't do it it's impossible you do it take your hand put it on the put it on as if you're doing it nira ke mekimo uniska for kamehameha it looked like marshall ben was picking it up but it would stand up on its own that's why the plastic says the mishkan was put up doesn't say they put it up it says it it went up indicating that it didn't actually get put up it was miraculously it stood up on its own it looked like mushroom was doing it but it was done by hashem and of course we need to understand what is the concept here what is the idea why doesn't show banana need to do it let us just stand up on its own why is moshe getting the credit for it how come chloe still couldn't do it let's see the mattress the measure tells us some amazing things we'll see if we have time to read it all but there's really some awesome stuff here there were numerous wise people there they weren't able to stand it up so they came to moshe and what happened king salman says in michele the famous proverb about the asian style the the woman of valor which is claudius many girls have done amazing amazing work they've accomplished amazing things but you are higher than them all who is this a reference to so it could be referring to qualities other jewish people but says the message here it's referring to moshe rabbenu that he was able to accomplish something that no one else could accomplish other people had made the parts they weren't able to stand it up each one took the thing that they had made the piece that they had assembled they brought it to moshov and they said it's important to understand that the divine spirit when we speak of doesn't only have to be some inspirational thought or inspirational understanding or being able to know the future these kinds of things that's also true that is what that's the divine inspiration is but there's another aspect of which is the ability to do something supernatural shimshon hagibor he was able to accomplish things it talks about the rural shims he was able to do things also he had rock king david he was able to kill the devari the bear and the lion he had ruach it's a certain power a person is given supernatural power from hashem moshe was given this and he was able to lift up the mishkan but says the magistrate timer like we saw in rashi don't think that moshe was the one who stood it up interesting he had the power to do it he had the she had the supernatural power but that's not even what did it it happened on its own there were niece and there were miracles that stood up on its own if you think this is wondrous how could it be that such a thing happened the same thing happened when king solomon built the temple 480 years later 480 years after the jewish people left miss ryan as the buzzard tells us so it also happened the same kind of thing that it says the house and it's being built it happened on its own it was built on its own s this is what the verse means it's saying that it's telling us that in the best when the temple was built the first place on english the first temple it was built on its own miraculously the mishkan miraculously what is the idea here why is the mishkan need to be built miraculously why does moshe need to be the one who builds it king solomon why are they the ones who build it so to speak but it happens on its own what is the message of this measure so hold on to that question and listen to a mind-blowing major and before i start this mention i need to warn you this madrish means something very deep and if you read it if you take it at face value it doesn't really it's very hard to understand let's put it that way but when we see and we understand the depth of what it's saying we're going to have an awesome unbelievable life-changing message which will help us in our videos hashem in our service of god where are we headed what are we striving for what is we talked about in previous weeks about building our mishkan building our temple learning the torah what are we what are we aiming for and how do we get there so listen to this and this by the way is going to explain listen closely because it's going to explain what's going on in the previous magistrate as well since in the song of songs the beautiful song king solomon wrote in order to describe the love that hashem has for the jewish people saying i ran away jewish people the king which we know whenever it says the word in shirashim is a reference to god himself who is the king that the king that the peace is his the crown that his mother made him on the day of his wedding on the day of the joy of his heart okay so we're talking about some kind of crown and i understand what the crown is we're talking about the crown his mother made him the major is going to say king salman we never find that his mother made him a crown we're going to talk about the crown of hashem what is the quran of hashem we're going to talk about it and it's the simchaslibe what's the day of god's rejoicing we're going to see it's the day that the mishkan is built it's the day that that temple the the tabernacle and the temple times the king solomon also were built and there was a tremendous joy of the sparkle of god with the jewish people with us when was this verse said in reference to when but yeah it's a reference to when the day the day when the mishkan stood the tabernacle was erected that god's presence is now upon the jewish people okay so let's hear that joy for claudia sorel white there's a mishkan what's the joy the joy is that god is with us let's think about torah also in that vein when we understand god's will we build that home we spoke about that a few weeks ago we built that home we have god's presence in our myths just like the mishkan now listen the nice what's this reference to the nice to see and the daughters of zion ahmed tsuyananli they listen to what makes us unique and what qualifies us to be called the daughters of god the children of god the to have this relationship with hashem we're called benicio in the word sian the word which means zion it means si yoon means something that's mitsuyan something that stands out outstanding what's outstanding about claudius sorel we are pointed at seeing is when you point at something you you have a marker this is where it's let's say a graves a grave site this is so you know where this person is buried if it's you you haven't seen another great sadiq a great righteous individual claude israel is pointed out we are different than the nations of the world we are pointing hey there's the jew you see the peas you see the yamaka you see the beard you know it's a jew have you been i see them it's youngly we stand out we're outstanding to god like we said before it's a reference when it says king solomon it's a reference hashem it's a reference it's a mushroom to hashem god is referred to as shlaimai because shalom the peace is his what is the crown that his mother placed on his head listen to this the mishkan is a crown on god's head as it were what is a crown think about a crown what is the idea of a crown something upon one's head what is upon a head a ketter is a crown a kasser an atara is a crown it's the thing that's upon one's head in kabbalah the idea of kaser which corresponds to this concept is this thing that precedes thought right inside of one's head is you have the mind the right brain the left brain intuitive mind intellectual mind upon the brain upon the head is something which is beyond mind it's this the first source it's the thing that motivates the mind it's the right sign it's the desire it's the first uh safe massive is the first thought before any intellect before any intuition that's what the atar is the the the crown and listen to this what is the motivation it's the motivation it's the motivation what is the motivation listen to this what is the motivation what is the crown of god as it were it's the mishkan israelite called the crown just like a crown is beautified it has pictures on it has uh precious gems on it so to the mishkan also this mitsura has pictures remember they designed the curtains with different types of of threads blue threads purple threads etc the ones who are thinking thoughts that's the thoughts again we're talking about the thoughts we're talking about the atara is the crown top of the head motivator what's the motivation the mishkan somehow motivates hashem what does that mean what does it mean that the mishkan motivates god as it were let's see listen to this blow the mother of muhammad king solomon his mother never made him any kind of crown so what is he referring to a crown listen to this the author of the zohar he had a question for his rebbe with azerbaiji he said did you ever hear anything from your father to understand this verse what is this verse talking about it talks about a motivate a motivator for hashem hashem as a motivator hashem is the source of all motivation how can we talk about hashem having a motivator hashem is the first motivation of all reality he's the maksha we shine he comes before everything there can't be anything before hashem it can be anything that motivates hashem so to speak he motivates himself he decides why does he create the world because he decided there's no predating there's no motivation this is the scary part okay listen carefully to this is the scary part did you hear up shot in this rib shimon bay yokai author of the zo are secrets of the torah said yes i did hear from my father ebishot he loved her very much he did all kinds of things to show her his love for you curry is bt he said kept calling my daughter my dear daughter my beloved daughter he kept showing her his love to the point where he called him his sister a person has a deep love for one sister you feel like you know they're on the same level as you according finally the final appellation the king gave to his daughter because of his great love for her he said you're my mother. at the beginning hashem called the jewish people his daughter passed away in psalms chapter 45 verse 11. listen my dear daughter and see turn towards me forget your nation the house of your father okay so hashem refers to us as his boss which means we are his child we are his daughter we need to do what he says forget your past forget your your physical desires forget everything that you know and want and listen to me listen to my torah it's going to be good hashem continues with his love for the jewish people and he refers to us as his sister as somebody who is you are my twin this is refers to jewish people as his sister rayasi and nasita right you are my twin you're nasty tamasi my sister we represent god in the world we are referred to as hashem sister when we start to listen to god when we start to keep the torah when we start to do what we're supposed to do let's start when we're when we're in it we're doing it we are hashem's representative in this world where ilu i i couldn't say this if the message didn't say it we're like god's sister now here's the scary part continues to show us love he shows us love he shows us love he shows us love there's no forcing here we are choosing his will we're choosing his will we are building this home we're building this homemade out of torah we're building a mishkan and then hashem calls us listen to me my nation leomi awesome is another word from my nation but the word liu me can be ready my mother listen to me lumi it's very interesting you know what is the idea of a mother it's something we listen to it's means there's something that's going to motivate hashem just like a mother motivates their child we listen to our parents our children listen to their mother the aim is the one who's the motivator somehow we are able to motivate hashem let's see this is a unbelievable idea it's very difficult to understand we motivate hashem it can't be hashem is the first motivator listen if you guys listen the tire will come out into the world my laws will come out my statutes will come out and it will calm down the nations right it will calm down the nations will calm down the nations represent the physical aspect of reality we're going to calm down the physical we're going to be spiritual and transform the physical into the spiritual shock kissed him on his head of course he kissed him on his head the place of the crown kissed him it's the love okay there's so much more to read here but i'm running out of time but but listen to this because this is just just unbelievable and when we understand this we understand everything say say them a fortune explaining this magic what does the matrix mean how can it be that something motivates hashem it can't be because the major says them before him and explaining the major the message means to say when a righteous person makes a decree says something this is how it's going to be god fulfills it whatever that sadik says hashem does it hashem causes something to happen because it's other gasks you go towards sadiq for a bracha he says certain thing will happen it happens why because because the tzadik said it and hashem does what the tsatik says so the motivator of hashem eemi the ataris israeli me krishna who refers to claus israel in their state of sitkus when we are righteous hashem does what we ask now how could that be it doesn't make sense how could it be hashem does what he wants what does this magister mean what is the magis teaching us what is the idea here and it's so deep and it's so beautiful it's so deep and it's so beautiful listen and and take this to heart when i build that i'm creating i'm creating a conduit hashem will will do what i ask what does that mean what is this i control god no i'm building a mishkan building a home i'm learning the torah i'm doing god's will i'm looking for his will because i'll say it's when i make hashem's will my will if i align my will with hashem and hashem aligns his will with mine what does that mean it means that when i have completely aligned myself with spiritual values with tire values i've created a mishkan which is all about i am just here to do the will of hashem how do i do it i learn the torah i find out what god wants i create a mishkan a sanctuary for god to be shared in me to to dwell upon me when i do that even what i want it's not really what i want i just want what hashem wants that's what hashem wants from us he's saying do it do do my will follow the torah keep these mitzvos build a sanctuary for yourself and i will do whatever you want because you're going to want what i want we're not the motivators of akulojo but to the extent that we have molded our minds to align them with the will of hashem we want what hashem wants and of course whatever that's says to the whatever the sadiq wants hashem wants because that's addict has made himself aligned with hashem's will that's the atari we the we become in the same place as god we become in the same will as hashem we have aligned our will with god's will and then we find out that what we want when we've really gotten there and that's the goal is to get to that place where what we want is what god wants we find out that what we're doing is not really us it's really him our will is his will because we have aligned ourselves with his will and now whatever happens is him it may look like us it may even look like what we want but really what we want has become what he wants and that's why it's a hamster the continuation of the previous major maisha rabbenu is asked why is moshe rabbin the one who has to pick up the mishkan because the mishkan is about doing hashem's will who is the one who knows hashem's world the most who's the one who has to complete it who is the one who has to put that crown on hashem's head as it were it's moshe rabbenu he's the one who was there 40 days and 40 nights back up for another 40 another 40 120 days on our c9 he knows hashem's will he's transmitting it to the jewish people he is the will that guides the jewish people he's the one who puts up the mishkan but even he his will is just a reflection it's just not even a reflection it's just a window into the world of hashem he picks up his hand the michigan rises by itself he he holds on to it but it goes up by itself as a representative of kaiser he is the the rat sign he's the will the jewish people he represents his name represents hashem the king he is not the mashiach is not god right of his time the messiah is not god but he represents hashem's will in the world he teaches us hashem's will he's the one who has most subdued his will to hashem's will and therefore the actions that he does might look like his actions but they are miraculous in fact in fact they are miraculous and so to the degree that we build a mishkan to the degree that we build a life of torah to the degree that we align our will with hashem's will we let in hashem into our life hashem is shared god's divine presence comes into our lives and guides our actions guides our thoughts and when we ask hashem something because we're really asking for him we're really asking what we believe that he wants of course he does it of course our prayers are answered i want to bless you and i ask you to bless me should help us to take to heart the amazing lessons of the mishkan what the michigan really means should help us to be able to build a true life entire life [Music] where hashem is the center and our thoughts and our minds and our feelings are guided by what the torah says thank you so much for listening have a wonderful shabbos this podcast was made possible through the gracious donations of listeners like you for more
