A Vort From the Rebbe Parshas Behaloscha, Rabbi Leibel Shapiro - 5786

In this week's in the beginning of it says speak to tell him that we light the candles that the candles should be there facing the the middle the middle branch and that's where you should light up the seven candles. So from the post it seems that this mitzvah of lighting the candles is a mitzvah upon arin was the kango the high priest but it's not only every kayan any kan could do it but the is even more not only a kan could do it is to light the is allowed even by somebody who's not a and explains the meaning of this in the spiritual way what's the lesson From this we know what it says that lighting the represents lighting the Eden it says which means and of compared to a candle and when you light the candles it means you're lighting the n there are some people that is not not shining for some reason it's covered up and it's not shining it's hidden someplace inside and the job of was to light the which means to light these these nish to bring out the shine the light that's there in the nish to bring it out and that's why it says there are seven candles because it says there are seven types of Eden represented by the seven emotions there are seven midas represents all kinds of Eden and the job of is to make sure that these candles light which means that the shine even those nishas that are not shining the job is to Make him shine and in such a way as Rasha says when it says which means you should make it go up even though it means to light the but it says go up because you have to light it in such a way not only that you have to keep on constantly making it shine but you make it shine in such a way that from then on it shines by itself. One might think that this is a job only for a kayan. is called as it says in the says that's the job of a but a person is not a he says he has no connection to this job to the of lighting the other comes says that lighting the is a job that could be done by every single even if he's not a and it fits to what it says in that every yeed it says should be like a like a student of love everybody and bring them closer to the which means it's telling you that every Eid has this obligation the ability and the obligation to light up the other Eden. It means this is an obligation for every yeed to see and help other who their night might not be shining properly to make it shine. And then not only does it have the other Eid help the other Eid, but it helps you too because you have a share in whatever that other Eid is going to do since you made it happen. You have a share in that too. And that's the spiritual meaning of this mitzvah of lighting the plus the
