The Day after Shavuos - Rabbi Ephy Greene

we're coming off the holiday of shabbos could you imagine what it looked like in the mid-bar all those years ago at the foot of harassing after the jewish people received the torah because i'll tell us that brought about a healing to anyone who was sick anyone who's injured had a disability who healed them rashi tells us that when the torah says to prepare for kabbalah torah because hashem la read rashi tells us that he was healing all those who were uh blind so that they'd be able to see and explains because this was a response to claudius request with soneenu lyrosis hashem our desire is to see our king they wanted to behold karosh presence in the world but i have a question on that even those who can see can't see hakaris baracho so what does that mean that was giving them visions so that they could see their king that doesn't make sense you have to say that no the gilui hashina at that time of matantora and the giving of the torah itself that is the vision that the jewish people wanted which malcano meant that obviously they can't see akarsba the eyes can't fathom a a revelation of what hakaras park would look like however in receiving the torah they were able to perceive the world in a whole new way to recognize the ad hashem in the bria to recognize how karish baruch was involved in their lives in their lives that only comes when a person is truly receiving the torah my friends that is true for us as well each and every single one of us we are supposed to emulate as allah gave us the torah ourselves this shabbos in our time as well and we should emulate that feeling that now that we've received an accepted more torah into our lives our perceptions of the world should change we should see more ashka kapatas in our lives we should see more opportunities to learn and more opportunities for rohingyas in our lives more opportunities for helping our fellow jew the torah is meant to impact our perception of what the world is supposed to look like and what our engagement in the world is supposed to look like it's as though before chivalrous just a week ago we were blind we didn't see the opportunities in front of us we didn't see our true potential we didn't see how much akanesha was engaged in guiding our lives but now that we've received the torah now we can truly live full lives with the perception of the truth of torah with the perception that hakarush baruch is truly guiding us the perception that we have the ability to connect to torah to learn torah and thereby envision a better world bless each and every one of us take our torah and the torah that we've accepted on shibuyas and translate it into perfecting ourselves affecting the world around us [Music]
