volume the nest next edition the siata de shemaya barakame shamayim the concealed and the revealed now this title it was hard coming up with this title we even put it out there if anybody has any good ideas we almost called it the intrigue and the irony but ultimately the title the concealed and revealed i want to thank my dear father of imari for coming up with this title and hashem this evening it is primed to come out many people were involved in bringing the safer to this point there were many editors and many people who assisted in the graphics and in getting everything together i want to especially thank my very dear friend dr mohler who created the manuscript of the concealed and revealed based on the shurim and worked with tremendous amilos to be able to produce the manuscript and i want to be mavari kim and his family with good health shepherd and continued opportunities now many people have asked me there's already a safer which by the way just because we're promoting the new english book but that doesn't mean we can also promote the hebrew safer so if you want to get a hold of the hebrew safer please go to our site rabbidg.com by the way for those who are not familiar with the site there you could subscribe to our weekly devetorah in english in las nacoides from the ben la ashri and you could see over there all the available svarim and many people have asked well there's already a safer on purim and last night what is this is this just a translation i already have the safer and larson hakaidesh so i would like to address that a little bit by the way to get the art scroll safer you go to the arts girls site artsgirl.com and you have two options you could buy the book the concealed and the revealed or you could exercise the s option where you could send a friend or family this book as a monist where they pack it up for you with other food items and that would be what they call noise that lasts but is there any difference between the safer and last night and in english so let me explain to you some of the differences and some of the commonalities of course the upshot is you need to get both you know you knew that was coming but they're really um very different the the first thing you need to know is the concealed unrevealed is not in any way translation of the hebrew it was not uh this is not a translation every chapter was written from scratch and i'll just just tell you so you understand what the difference between them is the hebrew safer has 40 chapters the english safer has 30 chapters so there are many more chapters in the uh hebrew safer than in the english safer the additional chapters are the prakhim that are more called lambdush the more lambda subjects will be found in addition in the hebrew safer for example the mahlikis the rambam and the ramban what the tahlish of the mishkan is and how it uh plays out and is connected to khai dashadar the rambam holds it's the best dash is a makama voider the ramban holds its own and why the ramban categorizes the the mitzvah that way because the rambam sheet is that a mitzvah's cata a mitzvah is defined by how it will last uh for all time that's an example of a parak which is only in the hebrew another example is mahabharama whether you make a shakhianu and reading the magilla during the day that's a lamdasha subject that's only found in the hebrew some of the extremely esoteric subjects are only in the hebrew um and the english it has 30 chapters and i would say all of the classics are in the english all of the well-known purim classics will definitely find you will be in the english right back at ya and uh purim and rav mayor and rugby nassar ibishuts on purim and the true tale of vashti's tale all of these classic purim shiram of course will be in the english let me just uh continue to contrast the hebrew english now the hebrew safer you must get because you have a hakadama there and in the introduction of the of the lush and carter safer is a long maracha about the importance of swarm the importance of writings far and the importance of publishing safarim is publishing a safer a violation of that which we know that the torah shabbat should only be oral and not recorded is writing a safer fulfillment in the midst of siva's safer torah and that's the hakadoma has really a great reservoir of information about sivas svarimbus how riding storm brings the gula so that's something that's a subject that's treated in the hebrew that is not found in the english as we mentioned as well as a number of lambdash or deep subjects of that are found in the hebrew safer that are not found in the english however there are a number of chapters that appear in the english say fair that do not appear in the latin question safer and i'll tell you what they are and i'll tell you why they're not in the hebrew sephirah now there are a few hidusham that are found in the english that are not found in the hebrew that on chapters that already published in the hebrew sephirah but these particles were not put in some of them are a little bit maybe you'll call it uh innovative or revolutionary that i didn't want to put in the hebrew i wanted the hebrew to remain more classic but some of the more revolutionary reduction i put in the english to maybe a more broad audience an example would be there's a footnote in the introduction of the english regarding that which you find in sector based that many amaro when they would begin their discussion of the purim story and the megillah would not begin by discussing the megillah straight up but instead would discuss the story from a different vantage point and this would begin from this passage in ishaiah and this summer will begin from this position why is that so this is a subject that is only discussed in the english and not in the hebrew it's based on something that we write about in the hebrew based on the khidash of the basaphraan the sha'asu is based off him refrains on margolis advances a revolutionary idea that megillas esther maybe is not part of tanach that when the gemara says there is such an opinion that miguel says there is not part of but even the opinion that it's nitin like royce even the opinion that's part of tanakh reframe zarmago says maybe it's only part of tanakh to read on purim but it's not part of tanakh in terms of torah and that's why reframes almighty says the gemara says that interrupting learning of torah to read the megillah is bitter torah now why is it bitter torah the megillah is also torah rashi said in last week's parashat that the torah is compared to a kala just like akala has to just like akala is adorned with 24 kishutim so too a tamar must be proficient in the 24th farm so mcgillis esther is one of the 24 books so it's part of tanach and therefore why would it be bitto torah to stop learning to read miguel's esther but the reframe samurai ghost has that is only part of tanakh regarding reading it on purim but it's not part of tanakh regarding that it's part of the corpus of torah and reading the megillah is not a fulfillment of tamatara in that case we advanced and again this is only in the english that that may be why so many amiroyum when they began their discussion of purim and the megillah they did not begin by discussing the megillah per se but rather they were paschal episcopal they began their discussion of the magilla from elsewhere because according to franz zamagos the megillah is not torah per se but by discussing apostatis and then bringing the miguel into it that perhaps was a way of being mahnes the subject of miguel's esther into the corpus of torah then one of the classics purim classics of course is purim fest 1946 and the historic precedence for the purim codes this is a detail that we didn't write in the hebrew we thought it would be a little bit too revolutionary but when discussing the big and small letters we know the megillah has many big and small letters so for example you have in the beginning of the magilla so you have the word spelled with a big hus by the way the word says that indicates that were the big day kahuna at his party and you have the big tough at the end of the megillah and that says to teach you was a big xiva indicating that this was the civil lady rice however uh the achronim and the mukubalam say the big tough and the big hess are a ramez to when the gezera of haman came to fruition because there's an idea that cassava that once god allowed haman's decree to be formed so then it was never retracted and it came out in the year 1648 1649 and in that context we examined the small tough shin zion that are in the megillah by the asaris bene haman and as rebecca weissmandel revealed that that's a remiss to the hanging of the ten nazis in the nuremberg trials in the year tough shin zayin which was 1946 and streicher went to his death crying out purim fest but in that context we examined the big vote mikhail berwice mandel said the big valve represents the sixth time in history the year 707 appears 707 1707 2707 this happened in the year 5707 and this indicates it was the sixth time the year 707 appeared but we added the big vav may be a reference to another time when the decree of haman came to fruition the big love may represent the six million so that's another khrushchev appears in the english that does not appear in the lash and akaidesh and then there are five chapters that appear in the english that don't appear in latin kindesh now i'm going to give you the inside scoop of why a chapter would be in the in the lush and kardash or it would be in the english in general the lush and carter's farm only have chapters that are original in other words if it already appears in another safer this binyan so then uh i don't put in in our lash and kadaspharam because uh the objective of the safer is to bring something new something that appears in in another safe or even if i quote it there's no purpose in just bringing a ma'aracha that already appears by another author even if i were to quote obviously i would quote that author but there's no takas there's no contribution of bringing in lush and kaidash unless there's um unless i'm making a humble contribution so the chapters in latin qaedas are those chapters that are either new ideas that i'm bringing out from various farim or even if it's well-established ideas but in the way that it's presented if it's a new contribution in the way the maramikamis are woven together then it will also be in the lush and quieder safer otherwise if it's just a beautiful maracha from david kaine or pinchas friedman so they already have it and they're safer and you could get it there i i'm not adding anything by bringing it in my safer as is however in the english safer there are a few chapters actually there's one chapter there's only one chapter where i took a ma'aracha of rap david koyan and i brought it in english first of all because of the way i present it so in latin kaidesh i didn't feel that there was a innovative presentation in the hebrew language but in the english language i felt that this never appeared to an english-speaking audience and therefore it appears in the english say for a noun in lush and quite safer but it's presented if i may say very beautifully and the whole safer is worthwhile the name of that chapter is purim eternal which is actually based on a number of prokim from david kane safer on purim called the mayhapuram and it's based on the idea we're in sha shana sayaka if we use the phrase teshua samhai salaam their salvation was eternal that there's something about the purim salvation that makes it an eternal salvation are destined to become bot del purim will never become bought down why is that what is it why will perham never become butter and how can we even say that all the other yamatai will become bhatta so there's actually a chuba sarajba who says something remarkable that other yemen toivim can our subject that due to persecution maybe the day will come we won't be able to observe them but purim will never be will never come to that point that will will never be persecuted and never be able to fulfill a purim and the morale asks on the rajma but we develop an approach actually this is uh the approach developed by rav david kohin and i bring it in uh to the english-speaking audience that purim is different from all other yemen typhim all other young commemorate yetis matriaryam and the miracles of its misrain therefore when meshiach comes where we know he may says that the miracles of us will be similar to some time but much greater they'll be of much greater magnitude so any yamtif which commemorates the miracles of vicious mitzrayim will cause the miracles of purim to pale in comparison will cause the miracles of the other yamantov to pale in comparison because pesach is very significant but when hashem redeems us from the current goddess with much greater miracles even than you see as misrayam so then pesach will not stop being observed but its significance will be p will pale to a certain extent but the miracles of purim of our completely different nature they are the miracle of god pulling the strings of manipulating world events within the guise and clouded and shrouded by nature and the miracle of purim is a completely different um makeup it's a miracle of divine intervention within the realm of nature itself and therefore the open miracles of the future redemption will not cause a miracle like perham to pale at all because the miracle permit is a completely different nature it's hashem manipulating world events within the guise of nature and that in that sense purim will always be significant and that is why we say chuwasa mayusa la netzach it's a very beautiful chapter it requires study and i believe it's a chapter that will enhance your appreciation of purim forever so that's an example of a chapter that appears in the english safer that does not appear in the la shankar safer here's another example this year is in ibryar so we have two adars there are two chapters in the english that speak about the two adars that do not appear in the hebrew the reason is because they came later the english safer is a few years after the hebrew and these were more recently developed chapters so one is a very brief idea that this year we have 60 days of aadhar and there's a concept that through shishem you could be mavato something and there's an idea that in the 60 days of aadhaar you could be mavato all your troubles in the 60 days of aadhaar you could be mavato them another amazing chapter is something fishy about the two others we know mazel adardagim you know the masala of khadish adar is fish and we tend to think yeah the mouse of adar is fish and we picture this you know really joyous and happy googly eyed fish and we think that the mazel of adar is this really happy fish in fact i was in the swarm store i saw one of these you know wind-up toys of a fish and i had to get it in honor of this chapter but we learn this chapter uh brings out from the works of abusive isaac other and virginist and ibishits that the fish that are represented by adar are not these happy merry fish but rather they refer to the lavyasan we know khazal tell us the world he created the world bataanin gadolam with great fish the male of yahsan and the female of yasan the male hazal say god castrated the female god killed and he put away for that sadiq you know there's an idea that adarbays has no mason because the two masalas of ada are dog plural the male fish and the female fish and a god killed the female fish so therefore abdurbays has no muslim at all now we understand says abianis and abhisheks why haman was so thrilled when he saw mazel adam we always wonder well you know what's so scary about the fish that empowered haman but haman saw that the muzzle of is the lavyasan he was empowered when he saw that the muslim of adar is sudhas is the vyasan and this also gives us insight into the idea that purim is a day out of the future and sudha's purim is like from the sudah of the lithuyasan which god killed the vyasana in order to ensure that we would not be harmed in other ways in fact when other when there's only one aadhaar so then the mazel of both adar is the male of yahs and the female vyasan and khazal say if they would ever get together they would destroy the world so hashem according to the ushami made it that the poor miracle took place in an iberia when there are two adars because when there are two others it separates the male of yahsan from the female lavyasan so this is a chapter that gives us a very in-depth view of the masala of it brings other opinions the opinion of the lavish is that only other bases dog him ada aleph actually has the same as and this is discussed in depth another new chapter that's in the uh english that's not in the lush and kaidash is the chapter of the mystical interpretation of this comes from an amazing revelation of the samarabha we know that when amalek is around amalek strives to diminish and mitigate god's name and he makes god's name yud k instead of yurth kevke he makes the ki say kafsamach instead of kafsa makhalev respectively but we know that when a molecule is in the world they take out the v and they take out the aleph aleph they take out the that's the meaning says he will restore the aleph to case and the v to the uk he will restore the throne of god he will restore the name of god says the satmireba this is the mystical interpretation you know turn around the letters who right now not only did i like take out the aleph take out the above and the k but they flipped it around they made it hey vavalif so in order to bring it back we gotta flip around the who we have to make from who to aleph hey and then we could evolve we put the aleph back in the case and put the v back in the um into the name of hashem and it will cause god's name to be completed and cause the throne to be completed again i was asked to mention during the sheer that the shir is sponsored by chickens for shabbos which you could go to the yada yazar website and uh please make a generous donation for malam dim agunus and gushes and finally one final chapter that does not appear in los angeles again because this was formulated after the hebrew safer the hebrew safer came out in top shenani tests we're now in touching paybays so it was a couple of years ago and this is actually one of my favorites because it's one of my favorite topics and that is the gemara tells us that rebbe planted a tree on purim and the gemara discusses the propriety of rabbi doing so you now do malacha on purim and the gemara says well maybe they never accepted purim as the umptive and by the way we have a chapter on that why cloudy so never accepted purim as the umpte because if they would have accepted it as the yampt if that would mean that when perm is over we would have to make abdullah and you know we never want to be mavdill from purim but rebbe planted a tree why did rebbe plant a tree on purim what an odd thing to do and the gemara says he did some other unusual things he bathed in a wagon in sipoiri on shavasana batamas rebbe wanted to uproot tish above and we base this on the following idea we know that on the in the putin and the crevits for purim all the brothers of shema estrella have and while there is a halachic reason for that namely because are in some sense one bracha so it already has a privates pinchas character and other suffrage hasidos bring an incredible idea that as everyone is celebrating the salvation of purim of course we're all we honored mordechai there was one institution in claudius that was not fully joyous and endorsing of what took place on purim tell us that mordechai minted coins in the aftermath of the purim story why would he do such a thing and rav david tevel bring an idea that mordechai wanted to ensure that he would have a status of being a melech because mordecai understood that purim the miracle of purim would allow claudio to return to arthur's round and rebuild the base of mikdash but in order to rebuild the vasa mikdash claudius needs to appoint the king destroy amma lake and then build the temple and mordechai understood that in order for him to properly destroy amalek he had to have the status of the king of a king and therefore he minted coins to formalize that status and similar to what we say hanukkah time that rabbi did not give so much uh coverage to chanukah and the mishnah the hassam saif reputed to have said that's to stand up for the honor of his family the base david who was not pleased that the kashmir name usurped the meluha a similar idea is advanced when it comes to purim that as joyous as we are the family of david was a little wary of the prestige that mordechai attained on purim especially in light of the idea that purim is a tikkun for the sin of shaal for not destroying gamali so purim is sha'al's day and so to speak there's an idea that shall and david don't mix and in the filos of hashanah rabbah which is the day of david we talk about all that sadiq there's one sadiq we don't talk about we don't talk about sha'al because hashana rabb is dove it's day it's not shawl's day and on the flip side purim is sha'o's day it's but it ain't david's day and david is a little weary of purim and therefore in the crave it's there is no privates for purim david says you know sort of let me know when the day's over this is shawl's day we'll give him his day in the sun but the mahouse belongs to me and i can't i can't have a cravits for purim in my bracha we suggested that although the gemara doesn't mention this maybe this is another dimension to why we don't say halal on purim hallow we know was said by david in gratitude that he became malachi israel despite all the setbacks and challenges from his very own family hashem halal is the song of david you can't say hallelujah purim is the day of shaw and we brought out this idea addressing how many of rebbi's practices whether bathing on shiva's or trying to abolish purim trying to abolish above the the reason rebbe wanted to abolish tisha is we know mashiach and rebbe who comes from the family of beistavid he feels on tish above the birth of mashiach and the lifting of the availas of tishbo and therefore in a situation where tishb comes out on shabbos rebbe wanted to be invaded and therefore rebbe planted a tree on purim because the gemara says what kind of tree did rebbe plant he planted a tree of malchus in other words what rebbe saying is yes celebrate purim and honor mordechai but don't ever forget today is the don't ever forget where malchus belongs mahesh belongs to king david i who come from the malchus based of it i'm just putting my the line in the sand that malchus belongs to us and that is perhaps why he planted it in tivaria the city where meshech will reveal itself so this was a one of the major chapters that appear in the english safer that do not appear in the hebrew seifer as hazal tell us that the truth is many times if i give a share on a subject that i've already said almost always without exception there's always a new idea that comes out there's always new insight not just deeper insight but new insight as i'll say so i hope that this safer is will add new insight into your purim and perhaps on the next edition of the concealed and the revealed i'm going to tell you an entire a dimension of the safe air that appears in the english and not in the hebrew and that is this year was the passing of both of my beloved and revered grandfathers ramorica lee gladstein rabbishem and and my grandfather murkhalev gladstein was born on tinus esther and he celebrated his birthday on purim and of course his name was mordechai and in the introduction um it's a very moving and poignant uh introduction connecting the life of my grandfather to the umph of permanent to the story of the megillah and speaking about um some of the removed them i learned from my grandfather rabbi shimon hershfang and i would like to share with you that uh that with you extensively in our next uh the concealed unrevealed event but until then i wish everyone a wonderful preparation for purim and for khoi desh aadhaar and for shabbos mavarkham i thank so much khazakh rabbilan raviyanev rabravi for hosting tonight's event please see what you could do to support their worthy and uh incredible work
