Boker to. Good morning everyone.
Thanks for joining
this year's I'm not going to say this
year's uh trip up north because we've
already been up north but the annual
summer trip up north
over the years. We've been to the
safhone many many times to vary to
meron. But this year we're going to go
to new locations, new destinations in
the new biography of Raisha Wolfson. He
was always very excited to visit new
areas and new nooks and crannies and
corners of Artis. And it was based on
the following very important principle
that there's a concept in
Jewish thought that places
and parts of the Tory converge. Meaning
is there actually two dimensions to this
idea. First of all, in Cababala, there's
a concept called ashanam sha and nephesh
that there are places
and people and times of the year that
are parallel to each other.
And because of that, you know, there's
there's an idea that is the shabas of
the world and shabas is theim of time.
That's why every Friday night we don't
just say
we say
is the shabas of the world shabas is of
the week and therefore would teach in a
certain way when you enter is and you
enter you really need to make kesh
you're entering shabas when you leave
you believe you need to make a
halfdollah. It's a it's an idea very
powerful idea. Uh he develops develops
this idea to explain the concept of
kabala shabas that shabas and the
bikdash and are synonymous and that the
opportune time to be mithua
is Friday night during kabala shabas.
But we're going to take this idea a bit
further
in the city of Tvas and we're going to
go to Tvas today but not this part of
the cemetery. Buried side by side are
the Basin
Rab of Aberish and the Arveal Rabbid
Ishitz. Raitz and Aral has an amazing
teaching.
The garra tells us that K benua said
that anybody who conquers the city of
Ber I'll give them my daughter a as a
wife. However, the Gar interprets it not
that if they conquer the city of for
anybody who reminds us of the 3,000 that
were forgotten during the Mosha, I'll
give them a wife says
the simple meaning of the Puk and the
Gar are not two disparit interpretations
but the Garra is giving you the deeper
understanding of how to conquer the city
of Kiryat based on the idea that it is a
concretization of the Tyra itself.
Each part of Israel corresponds to
another of the and each city in Israel
is conducive to understanding another
very interesting. So for instance the
city of corresponds to brisma.
Therefore, when Abrau is inv
teaches Abraham, yes, to do the
corresponds to Shabas.
Over the years, we would say over the
teaching of the Abra is a great great
grandpa. The writes that there's no city
in the world more conducive to plum the
depths of the secrets of the Cabala than
the city of Tvas. Ander
famously asks in his chas how could such
a thing be how could you say that any
city in Israel has an advantage over
and we explain based on this that it's
not that it's greater than but the of
the secrets of Tory correspond to the
city of therefore in the city of we have
more of an opportunity to plum the
depths of the secrets of Tyra.
So in that vein, Ramsha Wolfson was
always very excited to visit new areas
of Israel. That's what we're going to be
doing today.
Hashem, this was unplanned
and it has nothing to do with me
preparing to become a father-in-law, but
we're going to be visiting the Kev of
Yay.
Yeah, you get it. I always would joke
around somehow my father-in-law always
ended up visiting us. Shabas paras,
you know,
>> Israel was the father-in-law. Remember?
>> Yeah. Because he's called, you know,
he's the he's by the way, just as an
aside, you know, almost all
relationships are mentioned in the Tyra.
You have a conversation between father
and son and father and daughter. There
is no you even have father-in-law
son-in-law there is no mother-in-law
relationship in the whole you know
there's no there's no
>> what in the f father a mother-in-law
son-in-law
mother-in-law son-in-law no interaction
at all between mother-in-law and
son-in-law this is just no extra
>> Russ was a daughter-in-law
>> she was a a schneer
Not a son-in-law. There's no
conversation
>> between a mother-in-law and a
son-in-law.
>> Oh, a son.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So,
>> sorry. Sorry.
>> It's okay.
>> Um,
>> we're going to be going today to the
city of Gush Kalav. We were never there
before. We're going to be going to the
Kar of Israel. We're going to be going
to other areas that we haven't explored.
And as is Hashem in that merit, we
should have a wider connection to more
of Hakadosha.
It's uh very interesting.
>> Ohas
and
>> it's Asus and she was mother at the
time. Too early. It was good mother.
Good good.
>> Okay. Very good.
>> Yeah, but she became one
>> after.
>> Okay. So, we're going to develop further
this idea that each of corresponds to
a different part of Israel.
Now the city of which we're not we're
headed to a completely different region
which we said corresponds to the mitzvah
of
blehud
that city corresponds to the mitzvah of
yehud
yel or yulad ben lami rash yeel Each
mitzvah corresponds to a different init.
What about what would you say the city
of Benbra? The city of Benbra which of
Tyra it corresponds to Benbra. Well,
Benra has always been the city of really
you know it's a city of Tam.
I would say that Benbra corresponds to
Kesha.
First of all, we find in uh the
Mishnayas that the Tanoim gathered at
that epic sedar and the Tamid were very
very worried about Kesha. They said
Rabbi Seuya
Zaman Keshma it's close enough because
according to official law you're not to
have the name of a biblical city unless
you're within the vicinity. Okay. But
that's why in we find that in they
reminded the
so it's interesting though
was advised by to go
to go in the morning. Why in the
morning? So the matter says
yeah.
So Hmon camees. So Ben is the city that
upholds Dishes. Now the Hamar teaches
that Kesha is kaisheshma
is a synapsis. So Ben is the city of
Kesha and really the city of Tyra in
general at this time. I want to give a
special yasha kayak to Nasen Weller for
for organizing this trip.
Now he did have enough time. He had
plenty of time to put this together.
