we're going to learn today what i find
to be a beautiful
really astoundingly beautiful piece of
the swastemas
on this week's parasha parsha's kisa
it's fassemas fasamas of course is a
hasidic work
commentary written on homich and on
holidays
it's the teachings of the person known
as this fascemas
rabbi yohoda arya labe alter alters the
family name who was the second rebber
in the hasidic dynasty of gair succeeded
his grandfather the hidden
mayor alter and his name was alter
passed away tafresh 1905.
his works fassem as i often teach very
brief cryptic
concise extremely
brief and not always so easy to
understand you need
background i chose today two pieces on
parashes kisses the first is from topher
islamic zion
the french llama zion would be in the
secular calendar
and this is the teaching he starts off
the madrish
he quotes a madrish and let me share
with you this madrish
he quotes the whole madrid
everybody knows that you have hamas you
have the text of the homage and then you
have what's called the madrish
madrish are the oral traditions and
teachings of the sages
explaining the verses in humus one of
the most
famous and important works of madrid is
called madras rabbi
there's a fascinating madrish this
is in this week
section 46 one member of olive
the measure says as follows
moisha breaks the tablets
when he sees the golden calf
says the madrish moshe saw
that there's no way the jewish people
are going to be able to
get up from this one they will not be
able to endure
this was a a catastrophe and a real
destruction
and he saw there may no be may not be
hope
so what did he do so the meadow says
and i quote rosh ali israel amida which
is called he saw the jews will not be
able to stand from this they will not be
able to get up
he linked his soul with them the shibuya
and that's why he broke the tablets for
um allah
they sinned they created a golden calf
which was used for idolatry i also
sinned
i broke the tablets
if you forgive them you'll also forgive
me
that's what moshe says
if you'll forgive their sin canelo
you'll forgive my sin as well
he continues and if not
if you will not forgive them
then why should you forgive me
block me out from the book that you have
written we see in the portion that after
the jews break the tablets
after the jews create the golden calf
moshe comes down and he breaks the
tablets he tells hashem and he says
if you forgive them great if not
erase me from the book that you have
written why did my ship break the luchas
even if the jews don't deserve them
return them to their maker why destroy
them
so the madrid says maisha saw that the
only way the jewish people will survive
this one is if he himself links his
faith and his soul to them
what words he connected his soul with
them
and when he connected his soul with them
he tells god listen
they sinned they created a golden calf i
also sinned
i'm in the same boat i'm in the same
kasha
if you could forgive me forgive them if
you can't forgive them
why are you going to forgive me god said
you know i'll get rid of them we're
going to start a new nation with you
moshe says i also sinned if you could
find it in your heart to forgive me
you'll forgive them
if you can't find it in your heart to
forgive them then don't forgive me
either
then erase me also from the save for a
checkered self they raise me as well
this is what the medraff says says
what does this mean it doesn't seem to
make sense it's very hard to understand
what is what does the madrid mean by
this misha broke the lucas
in order to join with them to become one
with them to sin as well as they would
sin and now god will forgive him
and them what is the meaning of this
vigam question another question
there's another madrid it's a very
famous meadow shamanistan
parishes akiv and in other places
that when moshe came down from the
mountain and he saw the golden calf
he observed that the letters of the
luchas
were soaring into the ear they departed
from the actual tablets and they were
gone
so moshe understood as the madrish puts
it i think in others
they have no substance anymore all the
letters are gone
the al-shakh explains that it doesn't
necessarily mean the physical letters it
means
the divine holiness embedded in the
letters
flew away soared soared up
into the atmosphere and therefore maisha
felt that there's no use to give them
the look because that's why he broke
them
that's a very famous madrid she saw the
ice just leaving the luchas it was just
what remained was
stone stone without the inner vitality
and energy the tears the holiness
the soul the soul was gone the body was
there but the soul was gone so he broke
the tablets
actually one meadow says one madrid says
it became so heavy
he was forced to drop them and break
them ask the swast how do we reconcile
these two madrasha
you could say it's two different
perspectives but the truth is
everything is ultimately connected even
if there are different opinions
so he says what's the connection one
matter says he broke the luchas because
he saw they won't survive and he has to
sin together with them
so he has to also do something wrong
this matter says it's completely
different reason
the isis flew away venerabilian
it seems that this is the explanation of
the concept
of
the torah is dependent upon
the preparation of the binays for all of
the children of israel who are the
receivers of tara
in other words torah does not exist
independent
of the people who it was given to
the terror itself much of it
is is dependent upon those who were
given the torah
uk the passage says in parishes
that the luchas where the divine
handiwork
is
the tablets were the handy work of god
the inscription was the inscription of
hashem
engraved on the tablets come hazal and
say
alticure horus elijah the word
horus means engraved the word charus is
the same letters like heiress which
means
liberated freed emancipated
the inscription of hashem was engraved
in the luchas
and charus which means gerus
heirus miyet zarhara
so the gomorrah says in aravind and the
madrid says in paris
kisa and it's brought in many other
madrashima and tana de vela yahweh and
zaya
that when the jews were given the first
luchas they were liberated
they were heiress they were liberated
from the evil inclination
from the angel of death and from death
the original state of adam and eve in
the garden
prior to eating of the tree of knowledge
was now restored
into human consciousness once again
their postures
have once again straightened up and
become aligned with the original
surah with the original form of a human
being so it's not just the
word of god is engraved on the tablets
it's also it represents a state of the
people
they were in a place of genus the kasha
this is a very difficult interpretation
mapirus if so the person should have
said
heiress on the people it says
god's script was engraved in the tablets
so this is where it seems that this
madrish
is really taking this verse out of
context the verse doesn't say
the people were free the verse says the
tablets were free
even if you want to pronounce the word
charus
as jerus and you could tell me that in a
terrorist scroll there's no vowels
there's no nakudis
so because there's no nakudas so the
terrier itself
lends itself to be pronounced in
different fashions zozai
okay that's an interesting concept in
and of itself
that because the word can be written and
it could be pronounced in different ways
each pronunciation
has meaning but the context is
completely
indicative that we're talking about the
tablets not the people
charus come the sages and say no
heroes the people were in a state of
hairs
but the truth is
israel
but the truth is based on what we said
that the terrorist debate is is
the torah's existence is based
on those who receive the terror who
absorb the torah
now will understand the connection
because based on how the terrorist light
is engraved in the hearts of the jewish
people
that's exactly how the letters are
engraved in the luchas
the primary space of writing the torah
and engraving the torah
is not on the tablets and it's not on
parchment it's in the heart
commercial kosov tells us in his book of
mishla in proverbs
chapter 3 and chapter 7
you have to transcribe them on the
tablets of your heart
that's where you have to write them down
is a board a tablet
don't only write it down on the board
i have to put it in to the luach to the
tablet in my heart
that's where it happens and that affects
the tire itself so the state of the
jewish people
in relationship to how much they absorb
it how much they internalize it
that defines the tyres so the gemara
says what's
engraved on the luchas it was engraved
on the look
because it was engraved in their hearts
the luchas are a mirror of their hearts
if it's engraved in their hearts
it's engraved in the tablets the
physical tablets
is just a replica and a metaphor for
their own physical state of mind their
own physical reality
when the oceans were engraved in their
heart the oceans automatically are
engraved in the luchas
and therefore means they were in a state
of heiress
if they were in a state of heiress the
isis were engraved in them or was
engraved on the luchas as well
what happens when the jewish people sin
the letters are not engraved anymore the
isis the isis soar
they fly away
because the look is our reflection of
the jews
so when my soul and my divinity and my
holiness and my
higher consciousness is not engraved
inside of me
it's not really part of me it becomes
separated
there is a misalignment so that's
reflected in the luchas
the territory was given to the jewish
people it's like the color that's given
to the haasen
husbands and wives reflect each other
they mirror each other
the state of the wife is reflected in
the husband the state of the husband is
reflected in the wife
not always but very often especially if
there's a deep unity
territory
it's an inheritance of the gemara says
the torah is betrothed to the jewish
people murasa
it's like two halves of one soul israel
is yes
in shapiro from krakow says israel is
the acronym
there are 600 000 letters in the torah
what's the connection the connection is
because each
jew is a letter in the torah each jew is
a letter in the lucas
because the ten commandments include the
whole torah
every soul is a letter in the torah and
the soul is not just written on the
title the soul is engraved in the luchas
which represents the fact that the jew
is engraved and tired of the terrorist
engraved in the jew
so the jew affects title just like
terrorist affects the jew you struggle
very right so there's a very deep
connection between israel and arise and
terror
so the swashma says the main we
when harass is the engraving of the
letters and the tablets to the point
that they became one
was a mirror of where the jewish people
were
al-tikri they were in a state of
spiritual and psychological
emancipation and freedom in other words
it was engraved in their heart
if it was engraved in their heart this
redefined their consciousness
or it expanded their consciousness now
when they
detach from that when they create the
eagle what happens
the oceans leave the luchas there's no
engraving in the lucas anymore the look
has remained just
a slob of stone a sapphire you have the
stone you have the body of the luchas
but you don't have any more the ice the
content
the theme the depth the meaning the
purpose
the inner design the tsura or if you
want in the summer
of the luchas if you will you don't have
that
that's what happens
the truth is moshe he was on the
mountain
he never engaged in sin
so he could hold the tower come on
that's what hashem tells him 10 the esse
is
i will turn you into a new nation
into a great nation hashem tells moshe
after the debacle with the golden calf
leave me alone i will
destroy them and i will turn you into a
great nation
why you because the turtle was engraved
in the heart of moshe
it was kharus and kherus in
so the toyota still exists i'll give you
the i'll turn you into a great nation
and this is where moshe makes a decision
moshe decided that he is going to
sacrifice his soul for the jewish people
foreign
he did not want to separate from his
people even for a moment
and by him connecting with them and not
separating from them
clothes
because for him the binay israel were
more precious than the luchus
he was aware of the will of the creator
shechness israel having a love mayhem
that knesses israel is more precious to
god than
everything including the torah and
including the luchas
vaidei
and because of this the oceans flew away
even from aisha
because maisha decided to connect
himself to the people well the kangaroo
should be sending commissioners and thus
he breaks the lucas as we explained
i don't understand what he's saying ah
my ship you'll have to review this
follow because every word here is
is a gem a priceless gem moisture
himself can hold
the tower the lookers are engraved in
him hashem says vasa is
cuddle you're good for moisha the luchas
are intact
why are the luchas are intact because
god's script is engraved in the lookers
because it's engraved in his heart
moisture didn't make the eagle motion
didn't detach himself
from his inner light from his inner
divine posture
but at this moment moishe instinctively
says i'm not leaving my people i'm not
separating my people he says master
nafshoven
israel he gives a soul for his people
i will not separate from them even for a
moment
i will not put myself into another world
into another space
that's what the madrid means
he's connected his soul to them but one
second
for them there were no lucas anymore the
oysters have departed
because the luchas were not engraved in
their heart that's where they were
moshe said i am going to go into that
place and that's why he breaks the lucas
so the two madrushim explaining
different reasons why marsha broke the
luchas are really one
the first madrid says why did he break
the lucas
because he wanted to sin together with
the jewish people
they violated god's will he will also
violate god's will
they broke the turner he'll break the
luchas
they created a golden calf he'll destroy
the toyota by breaking the lucas
unbelievable
and then he tells hashem listen you
don't want to forgive them
i'm in the same boat i'm the same sinner
at brazil you're here with a manager
you're here with the money gesture
he says you don't want to forgive them
okay no problem
but i'm the same sinner you got to get
rid of me too
you got to get rid of me too that's what
the mattress says
he brim
oh you want to forgive me okay no
problem i'm with them
so forgive them if you're slapping me if
i can get schlepped out they can get
schlepped out
if they can't get schlepped out i also
can't stop that we're in the same boat
we're in the same
we're in the same abyss we're in the
same program
moisture says we're in the same program
we're
i'm with you i'm with you
mom send the sender to the cabra
i'm with you i'm not going anywhere if
you can't find in your heart to forgive
them okay
but i'm with you no so that's
one major
the other matter says why did he break
the lucas because the oceans flew away
one second what's happening here i
thought he broke it because he wanted a
sin says his face
it's really the same thing so his
oysters flew away
the ocean soared into the ear
you have the same uh the same language
used in
when ava's are you spurned
by the romans with the cephetera and his
students asked him what do you see
and he said i see villeneus parques
the parchment is burnt and the letters
are soaring
the oceans don't disappear you can't
burn
ideas you can't destroy letters
you can destroy parchment you can try to
destroy your body
you can destroy ideas you can't destroy
a soul
you can destroy oysters the romans can
burn the sephirah turner
the nazis could burn the sephirah toyota
but the ideas the neshama in them you
can't burn
they fly up and they transplant
themselves
in new places
so the med room says oh it's just
purpose the issues are gone from the
look as they become heavy my ship breaks
them says fast it's really one
explanation
because moshe himself from himself the
luchas were intact
the toad is a reflection of you if this
look is inside of me
it's going to be in the stones if not
it's going to be away from the it's
going to leave the stones
the jewish people lost that inner
liberation that inner
heiress so automatically the chorus was
gone allah
make a choice where do i belong who do i
choose
do i choose tata do i choose the lucas
do i choose the people so this facebook
says
he chose not to separate from them even
for a moment
because for him the jews were more
precious than the luchas
how can you say such a thing
says he knew that the true will of
hashem is that knesset's israel having
a love
the most precious thing is classicist
more precious than
everything either is the purpose of
creation
and the luchas were made by hashem
himself and martial
was the one who appreciated the lucas
more than anybody in the world
as the pastor says
the terror is called tyrus moshe moishes
why because he was one with my
didn't learn titan while she didn't
absorb titanic didn't teach titan my
is tighter there's no title without my
the whole the whole time is my moisture
is tight and tight as my shirt
and do something deeper and do something
deeper in martial
classes israel there is something deeper
in moshe
the lookers are ingrained and engraved
and entrenched and embedded in marsha's
heart but knesses israel
is even more engraved than maisha's
heart
the luchas are engraved in hashem's
heart
but knesset's israel is engraved in
god's heart yet in a deeper space
he knew that he knew that's where god
really is
so even though hashem is upset and
hashem is angry and hashem is hurt and
hashem is betrayed
the jews did a terrible thing moshe now
could say
okay jews i'm throwing you under the bus
it was nice knowing you and run to the
lucas and embrace the lucas
and say ribena shalom come let's go
fabreg together it's you and me
that's not what maishna bainu does moshe
says i'm with them
i'm with them because his relationship
to knesset's israel is even deeper than
the luchs because he knows hashem's
relationship to knesset is always deeper
than the locals so what's now who is
calling
his calling is if the oceans left the
look is because of the jewish people the
isis are also leaving my luchas
because i'm with them so he naturally
breaks the luchas
these luchas have no space but now moshe
is together with them
[Music]
and the truth is
connecting himself to the jewish people
aides
through this he can fix them it wasn't
just moisture
bain who said you know what i forget
about everything forget about toyota
forget about god i'm going there
because i want to be with them masha
says i want to be with them
and by being there with them you can
actually pick them up
you can actually lift them up you can
actually repair
repair the pain
[Music]
why
so he says because
when he is with them when they become
one
suddenly we see that they never sinned
because the only reason they could
sinners
because he was not with them he was on
top of the mountain
and they went down on the earth when
maisha says
we're now one when he reveals that
connection with them
that they are inseparable from and mush
is inseparable from them
now the tikkun happens because when they
are really connected to moshe
albeinu here there is no sinning either
is tikkun
but for this motion has to come down
from the ivory tower
is to come down from our ceiling has to
go deep down into their abyss
and become one with them and when they
really won
now the tikkun is here
to put it in our in contemporary
language
the problem was there was attachment
disorder
they were not connected they were alone
they came to iron
what they tell aaron zem is
what happened to maisha he was our
shepherd he was our leader
we need somebody they felt alone they
felt neglected
today's therapist would call it trauma
ptsd the kata eagle was ptsd
it was terrible trauma what's trauma
trauma is you're alone in the world
nobody's there to soothe you
nobody's there to hear you nobody is
there to see you
what are the four s's what do you guys
do the 4s's
to be seen to be soothed to feel
safe to feel secure for us as they
didn't feel
safe they didn't feel secure they didn't
feel seen they didn't feel enthused
moisture was their man and he's gone
this is a terrible terrible
experience of trauma they create their
eagle which was a big mesh
and everything that happens afterwards
rashid says gili arayas
complete gilead breakdown of all
boundaries a breakdown of all boundaries
ultimate addiction now maisha sees this
he's like oh my god i'm gone i'm out of
here have a good day
no he goes right into it
he goes right into it he breaks the
lucas just like they broke the look
because in other words
marsha breaks the lushes just to be able
to connect to them because they already
broke the lucas in their heart
maisha now broke the lookers physically
and he said i'm with you
and the madrid says this he told hashem
they sinned i also sinned
i also said i am with them i am
connected to them
once he's connected to them now the
tikkun happens because the whole problem
was that they
felt disconnected that they were
separated there was a sense of
detachment
leverage similar to this i heard from
the holy mouth
of my grandfather my grandfather this is
referring to the hidushi harim
the harim is is the is the safer
and therefore the title of the first
rebbe of the hasidic dynasty of gur gair
his name was yitz rabiyitzhak mayer
ichimeier they called them
rim is harav yitzhak mehr alter
he was a student of the khatsuki rebbe
ramanaka mendel morgenstern who passed
away in the 1850s
later the hidducharim became a rebel in
gur
not far from warsaw in poland and when
the kedusha area
had a lot of children and every single
one i think 12 children
passed away during his lifetime i think
besides one daughter esther
and he was raising orphans he was
raising orphans imagine
he had 12 children and each of them
passed away during his lifetime
and he raised his grandson this fassemes
who was orphaned as a child from his
father whose name was
and
this fassemes was a boy who was raised
by his ada when the hidducharim passed
away
in tafreishav i think would be 1866.
svasemus was still a baker mama
youngbacher
but a few years later he became the next
rebel so he's quoting his grandfather
he's always quotes his grandfather
because his grandfather raised him his
grandfather
really was like a father to him so he
said i want to share with you something
i heard from isaiah
shapiro um
a fascinating madrish the opening of the
ten commandments
hashem tells the jewish people
i am your god i have taken you out of
egypt from the house of slavery
asks the madrids why lush and yakuda why
are not
you ever had that question you're
speaking to millions of people why
talking to one man
you could call out a name and middle
fine but you took it to everybody
in kriya shema what do we say ani hashem
why is
i am your god so there's a fascinating
madrish
and rashi actually quotes it it's in
madrid
rashi quotes it hashem was giving moishe
a little trick
he was telling maisha one day the jews
are going to violate anarchy
they're going to make an ego they're
going to make a calf you know what
you're going to tell me then you'll be
able to tell me
you never spoke to them you spoke to me
i didn't know they didn't know you were
talking to them you said
they thought you're talking to marsha
if i say i want you to know that i
am your god hashem says i am your god
who's you
you remember in in english you is plural
and singular but in
kaidos
i am your god he never told it to the
jewish people so this is lite in peace
this gave a room for moshe to open his
mouth
as a defender of the jewish people this
was the great
ticket this was the great advice for
the defense team that when the jews will
be even available will be able to say
you spoke to me you didn't speak to them
that's what the measure says so one
second
but here we have a big issue what is
going on here
what is this a joke anointing
was on the mountain every jew heard it
so they was really they really thought
it was only to marsha
i mean come on come on
it's very cute you only spoke to maisha
so why do you reveal yourself to the
whole people
number one number two if this is the
reason
if this is the main defense for the
jewish people why does much have to
break the luchas
he should just say you never told them
if this is the defense we don't need
anything else
up isaiah explained
israel
of course the commandment was to the
whole claudius
but it's the way they are unified and
connected with my
shohu because he integrates them as one
but
and then in this state the commandment
that said to moshe's also said to them
because they're all one
the nim and this is really the greatest
defense for the sin
because before they could sin they lost
this sense of unity
and on that state where they're not
feeling the unity the attachment
they never receive the commandment of
anarchy
so what was the real sin the real sin
was that they allow
themselves to detach themselves
from the unity of
but it's never as serious as the sin
itself because that did not ris
that really was not the issue the issue
was
that they lost the touch of unity that
was the issue
the moment they lost a touch of unity
everything else spiraled out of control
but that hat you're not holding them
guilty for because the mitzvot was not
given to them the way they are on their
own outside of martial
banner what is the hiddurim telling us
here
it's just an amazing amazing vart art
was said to moshe but it was said to the
jewish people so why'd you say lash
because there is a state of
consciousness where moshe and the jewish
people are one they're not separated
or to put it in the words of
real leader of the jewish people is like
the brain the brain of the person
is not detached from the body the brain
and the entire organism are completely
integrated they're completely unified
the brain's central nervous system is
interconnected and integrated with every
single limb
and organ and bone and sinew and cell
and tissue over the entire body
it's not two separate beings you have a
brain and then you have limbs and organs
arms and legs no
it's one it's actos it's one goof it's
one life i don't say let me talk to your
brain let me talk to your heart let me
talk to your
to your to your hand it's one mathias
a real leader of the jewish people a
real rebel is the brain it's the
consciousness
that unites and integrates in other
words there is that state of reality
where the jews are maisha
and moshe are the jews in that state of
divine oneness they are one so
is referring to moshe but it's referring
to the jewish people because they're one
with mush
they are you and i am your god
is israel yes there's absolutely no
difference
so of course he's speaking to the jewish
people but that is maisha
martial that's when hashem tells them
when you're in that state of complete
oneness
when you're aligned with your infinite
posture when you're aligned with your
infinite self
when you're a channel for divine oneness
and consciousness god tells you anna's
what allows for the kata eagle to happen
attachment disorder they're not
connected
they don't see themselves in that space
they don't see themselves as
moisturabenos
they don't see themselves as mirrors of
moisture they don't see themselves in
that space
they feel small inadequate neglected
detached abandoned traumatized
afraid insecure you can add another few
adjectives
that's the prerequisite to sin that's
the prerequisite to hate
we always say what does hate really mean
hate doesn't mean sin
hate means you miss the target kailea
al-assad of
will be wanting we're going to miss the
opportunity hate means
i'm off target i'm not aligned i'm not
connected to myself
i'm traumatized i'm in an isolated
quarantined place
emotionally speaking what allows for the
hate what allows for the hate is
they're not feeling their oneness with
maishnabeno this is the pisgrid pass so
my says what do you want from them
was said to me what does it mean it was
said to me it was said to them
the way they are in a state of unity and
oneness
but now they're not in a state of unity
and oneness that sivi was never said to
them
they lost their actors before the hate
and over there there was no mitzvah
because they're not one with moisture
is the way they're unified with moisture
this is the sin then the sin is
that they allow themselves to lose that
experience of oneness but it's already
not avoided zara
they never violated our desire because
they never had a sievery against avoid
desire because the commandment against
the
desire is only the way they are one with
mashable when they're not one with my
there's no mitzvah
with zara because it says
so therefore what does my should do now
maisha understands that the key is he
has to attach himself to them
he has to go back to them they have to
feel one with them they have to feel
connected to him
they have to feel attached to him and
when they could feel that connection
vinashoy
was set to them because it was said to
him also and from there there will be
the tikkun because in that state of
achtus they will
so if so this limits of
god already told them by saying so
you're going to use this one
you're going to use this one this is
really the idea that we're saying
that by this limits that it's all
because of detachment
that's the issue so therefore maisha
understands that the key has to be
breaking the lochus attaching with them
connecting to them
and in that space there is healing and
there's tikkun
this now is the meaning of the madrish
why moshe broke the luchas
to connect his soul with them and he
says to god
they sinned but i also sinned if you
forgive me you forgive them if you don't
forgive them
you don't forgive me either there's a
second piece of the swasabas
just a few lines that he spoke about
four years later
tough mem aleph which would be 1881.
the first section is tough islamic zion
and this is tough ishmael if you see in
the source sheets the last paragraph
if you haven't opened your source
streets on the yeshiva.net you can have
find the source streets if you go to the
yeshiva.net t-h-e y-e-s-h-i-v-a dot net
you'll see the sheer on the top
thursday and you'll have source streets
over there let's see the second svasemes
which complements the first one
here he quotes a new medrash also a
fascinating madness but madrish al-pasik
lachrade
malachi al-akim oil in the urdum
it's a fascinating madrish hashem tells
moshe when he's on the mountain
go down because your nation has become
corrupt
they created a melting golden calf
go down so the medra says
that motion of being returned to hashem
and said i don't understand
yesterday you told me the elisa atta
you should come up to the mountain
hashem told marshall go up to god the
kanata him
now you're telling me go down god which
one
fascinating question first you tell me
come up now you tell me go down
so hashem tells him the madrid says
it's not because of your own honor that
you come up here
it's because of the glory of my children
because of my children that i wanted you
to come up i already told the old man
yaakov
allah
in that dream of the latter he sees the
angels of god going up
and going down boy what's boy oil in the
earth
what's boy they go up and they go down
on it
what i was telling ya in that dream is
when your children will beat sadiq
they will uplift themselves and they
will uplift the world
so their messengers and their
representatives and their teachers will
go up with them
but when they go down and they descend
their representatives hey
be read so hashem said earlier i told
you go
up even the angels of god
their ascent and their descent is boy it
depends on the jewish people
oil and virgin boy they go up and down
and that ladder of the jews are facing
upwards the malachim are going up and if
the jews are going down the malachima
going down
you are a shleak of the jewish people
you are the representative of the jewish
people you were santa para you were sent
by me to liberate them
and you're mashley so therefore oil and
view then by previously i told you to go
up
now kisa
you and them now are in a state of going
downward descending that's the madrish
rashi quotes it earlier i told you go up
but i gave you the greatness for the
jewish people so now it's time to go
down what is the meaning of this major
at this face value when you don't really
get in the summer of this marriage it
looks like the madrid was saying
listen maishrabeno you're connected to
the people if they're going down you're
going down
if they're going up you're going up
that's one interpretation
swasaba says no it's much much deeper
actually god was teaching moisha how to
save the people
it's not a punishment they're going down
you're going down even going down
is teaching the tsadikim how to
live and it teaches us how tzaddikim
operate
it's a limoud it teaches us the madrega
the state of consciousness of a real
sadiq
shahideh sheba unidos is
because by the fact that when the jewish
people descend they go
down with them they now have the ability
to elevate and sublimate everybody
if when the jewish people will go down
they stay up
there's no way they can bring them back
up you can't
sit in heaven and scream hey hey hey
you come back like the bolshematives
metaphor brought and told
if a lifeguard is sitting you know on
the lifeguard's throne there by the
beach you know those thrones lifeguard
is sitting over there
listening to his music right and
somebody is struggling
in the earth and goes hey you gotta get
out get out
it's not going to work the person is
struggling
the life of god has to jump into the
water and schlep them out
i have to go down if that saddik stays
up and says hey kevin come out come out
become holy like me you're not going to
help them
he says when they go down with them they
go
into the abyss with them they go into
their state of consciousness they
connect with them
you know what happens now they're not
staying there
they can now extricate them and bring
them up
because they're going up and when they
go up they're bringing them together
with them harry weimer this is the
meaning hashem tells maisha
forget the jews they are too bad the
essa is
you will become my new nation um i mean
all of a sudden
refused as we explained in the first
piece earlier
moshe chose the jewish people over the
lucas it seems like he chose the jewish
people over god
hashem said i want to destroy them i'm
going to turn you into my new nation now
my she says no
on my dead body literally mccain
because he knew that the real rats and
abery is hashem knows hashem feels that
knesses israel is more precious than
everything
he refuses and that's why he broke the
tablets
as we explained elsewhere this is the
previous piece we learned from
because he did not want to separate
himself from claudia israel and he gave
his part over to the tsibur
he surrendered his identity over to the
sibling and therefore the letters of the
lucas flew away
because he became part of their sin
murshid
said i'm not staying up i'm going down
i'm going down into them i'm going to be
with them i'm going to connect with them
i'm going to feel them i'm going to
put my feel their pulse i'm going to
have my finger on their pulse i'm going
to feel their soul
i'm going to experience their pain i'm
going to identify with them i'm going to
empathize with them i'm going to become
one with them
wait but their oysters flew away moshe
said a myosis will also fly away and
therefore he breaks the luchas
he breaks his own lucha so so to be able
to be there with them
it's not versailles and that itself
becomes the source of their healing that
itself becomes the source of their
sublimation
where did marshall learn this from where
did moishe get this idea from
all of our
mosha learned this all from two words of
hashem hashem said leshrade go down
go down when god says yes they did a
terrible thing they have to be destroyed
he tells now you go down
yes there's the perspective from heaven
god is saying there's no hope for them
because there's no hope but he tells
moshe go down
if you go down we will discover hope
if you're ready to go into their shoes
if you're ready to go into their space
we will discover hope
malachi when the people go down the
malachim go down the shlochen go down
the tadika go down
so that they should be able to go up
together with them
zach zika that's why it says he merited
but he also brought soho's to everybody
else
so after that god says now go up
together with the people
you went down now go up together with
the people
and that's the hashem that are ready by
the
sarah sadibras weeks earlier he made
sure to tell him i'm speaking to you
because i'm speaking to the whole nation
the way they're connected to you
it's their connection to you that allows
them to be who they are
it's their connection to mushroom who is
maisha merchants ever hashem which is
their ultimate connection with hashem
through moshe that is what allows them
to be who they are and therefore when
they're sinning
it's already not the same grave sin
because they sinned as people who are
separate from you in their consciousness
and to those people i never said
was only said to the people the way they
are completely
experiencing their oneness with moisture
bainu which is their oneness with god
because moishe is isha like him
maisha is the ultimate evan hashem
so therefore maisha knows that lachrad
when he goes down he can ultimately
sublimate everybody
questions the engraving of the tablets
liberated the jews from death and the
etsahara
this means i guess that people
originally were intended to live forever
sin free
when adam and khawa destroyed the
original plan
and the tablets the torah was designed
to re-establish that status
from before the head but again the jews
became misaligned
because of their sin in the desert so
once again death comes back
and that generation in fact passed away
in the desert
but did moshe also sin he also passed
away
did this have to do with striking the
rock
okay striking of the rock is a different
parish it's not for now
but yes you're right and this is where
moishe joins with them
when somebody loves somebody else he may
write a
love letter to his or her beloved
after writing before mailing or pressing
send he hears his beloved has done
something
unbecoming or worse he still loves
his beloved regardless but he can't
continue to send the love letter
so he crumples it up then he realizes
his love
is greater than the unbecoming conduct
he loves his beloved unconditionally
so he picks up the pen again and
restarts writing
he finishes and sends the second letter
he rewrites the exact same words the
second time
but it's completely different because
it came after the breakdown and the
reigniting of a deeper love
so the breaking of the luchas in a way
represents this whole story
is that true yes very nicely put
can we say based on what you taught that
the breaking of the lucas was an avail
like the gemara
therefore it could be praised yes that's
a very interesting way of putting it
i have a question even before receiving
the written contract
the jews heard the first two
commandments directly from god
so it was binding even before the
delivery of the
of the of the of the tablets so the jews
did sin
by breaching a fundamental commandment
that was given to them
moshe's sin by breaking the tablets so
he joined the jews
but how can you compare the sin of
breaking a fundamental commandment like
idolatry
with the breaking of the tablets there
is no moral equivalent plus
where does it say one cannot break the
lucas what makes that a sin
at all excellent question
and the answer is even if it's not
equivalent
but nonetheless to take something that
was sculptured and created by hashem
himself
and destroy it was
certainly a very serious thing
so that's what he says moshe says i sin
by breaking the tablets
repsadhika kayan of lublin in sitka
satsadek
and the kamar nireba in his book say for
kesem ifer and the megillah
they add another touch the kimura says
him
dalid hamashaber calamba
somebody who breaks vessels during his
anger
during his wrath it's like
worshiping idolatry so they say
that's why moshe was mashable caleb
he broke the lucha in his wrath
so that he could connect his soul to the
jewish people and kevayakal in a very
very subtle way
go down the same path that they took
which is an incredible incredible
interpretation
next question
we all have our challenges perhaps masha
was being tested when the jews have
sinned
would he defend them join them and break
the luchas it seems to me
that what you're saying is that god
really wanted him to break the luchas
is that the case if so the entire story
was not only a test for the jews would
they succumb
but it was also a test for moisha if he
would be a real leader
and defend them or not that is
absolutely true and in fact gemara says
and rashi brings it
that when he broke the lurches hashem
said
thank you for breaking them so god
didn't only agree he endorsed it and he
thanked him
not only that rasheed says hashem told
moshe
leave me alone so i can destroy them why
did he say leave me alone
because he was intimating to moshe if
you don't leave me alone
i will not be able to destroy them in
other words if you don't let me go if
you hold on tight to these people and to
me
nothing will happen so basically god
was telling moisha this is really a test
for you as well
i think i think that's uh i think that's
uh that's very true
according to you you explained that sin
is detachment
why does it require so much atonement
over the generations
well i think we have to be able to feel
attached again
when you say it requires atonement over
so many generations it means
if you want to use contemporary language
today the cutting edge of
genetics is called epigenetics and
epigenetics is basically the wisdom
of how external events
even outside of ourselves inside of
ourselves as well but even events
outside of ourselves
can actually have an impact on our genes
and as a result of that be transmitted
to future generations
so there's a professor in in mount sinai
i think rachel yehuda
who did a lot of work showing how
children
or grandchildren of holocaust survivors
there's actually something
different in the genes as a result of
the trauma
that their parents or grandparents
experience
which is an absolutely novel idea
because we would think
your jeans are your genes they're
responsible for the color of your eyes
for your height for the color of your
hair and of course for your entire
genetic makeup
but an event that happened to your
mother to your father or to your zeta to
your bubba
how is that connected to their genes
it's connected to their mindset to their
attitudes to their fears to their
insecurities
but because today we are realizing the
unique and powerful symmetry between the
spiritual and the physical
between the soul and the body between
ideas and facts so therefore we know
that our genes are actually affected
so the trauma that i'm carrying may not
even be my own
it may be my father's my mother's my
grandfather's
generational intergenerational trauma
this is a unbelievable discovery
so when you say we need kapara for
generations
it's not only about you know they were
evil they were horrible people they did
terrible things and we are still
busy making up for their mistakes it
means that there was a certain
brokenness that was introduced into the
world
and that brokenness we still confront
and therefore we shouldn't despair when
we face it
because this is part of our mission to
confront it and heal it
and go down in order to be able to come
back up
this is a very important idea
