Follow us: https://www.hidabroot.com https://www.youtube.com/@Hidabrootcom https://www.instagram.com/hidabroot_global https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbCYZjl1CYoa4ulQIK2q This shiur reveals a hidden midrash about Erev Rosh Hashanah: the 70 ministering angels gather before the Heavenly Throne while Mashiach stands alone—awaiting the Decree. We explore the Baal Shem Tov’s revelations about the Upper Shofar, why some years echo the shofar of war, and how the Zohar describes the final blasts that summon redemption. We’ll connect: • Akedat Yitzchak → the left/right shofar horns • Matan Torah → the ever-growing blast • Geulah → the great Tekiah that shatters falsehood Chapters: 0:00 The “secret midrash” of Erev Rosh Hashanah 4:10 Baal Shem Tov & the Upper Shofar 9:05 Zohar on the two shofarim (war vs. Mashiach) 14:30 Akedah → the horn reserved for redemption 18:20 70 days, world tumult, and crying out to Hashem 23:40 Shofar in Musaf: Malchuyot, Zichronot, Shofarot 28:10 Shabbat Rosh Hashanah & the light of Mashiach 33:00 Practical avodah: emunah, teshuvah, crowning the King CTA: If this moved you, like, share, and subscribe for weekly Torah and chizuk. Shana tova—may we hear the Tekiah Gedolah of Geulah soon!
