Okay, it's a great to share some
ina.
We're going to try to keep it snappy
because we have a full day schedule. So,
we're going to take uh an hour. We're
going to condense it into like six
minutes. Okay, here we go. Uh
Jacob in his first encounter with
he starts crying.
He didn't even meet her yet. He's
already crying. So Rashi says he saw
that he wouldn't be buried with her. I
mean, talk about getting carried away.
They didn't even have yet. He's already
crying. They wouldn't be buried
together. I mean, let's not get ahead of
ourselves. They're not engaged yet.
There's no kaducin. There's no wedding.
And Yakov is already crying that he
would not be buried with.
Now, this is something for sure worthy
of note.
There's an idea that wherever
something's found in in a ma whichever
maka it's found in that's the root of
the matter. So does anybody know from
where do we learn out the laws of
kaducian that you marry a woman with
kenyan kesf you know to marry a woman
it's a legal transaction in a certain
sense and the garra says you a woman is
married with three ways primarily we use
kenyanf what's the source of kenyan ka m
ephrine au bought a burial spot so we're
going to learn out getting married from
buying a burial spot wow how beautiful
you know How lovely. We learn out
marriage from a burial spot. Can you
think of a nicer place to source Jewish
marriage than being buried with someone?
We're learning out from the purchase of
the
you know when it comes to the it says
that it was in curious arba Rashi brings
two interpretations either there four
giants there aim
and aim or there are four pairs there
four zeugim who are buried there a kava
abramanif
and lea first of all that's such a nice
peros why would rashi bring in the first
per that there are four rash buried
there just stick with the second one
what's wrong with Adams
why would Rashi bring in the explanation
that there are four wicked people there
and Rashi brings that first
now for those of you who awaken at
midnight to say
and I'm not going to ask who does it
there are two kinds of ticks there's
tick rael and tick lea the difference
between them is tick rael
We say only during the week. You say
even on Shabas. What's the difference
between and
you know there's a record. We got to do
this. Okay. We have to there's a safer
of the trip to Israel. There's a safer.
No, we we have to we need to have a
safer on our trips to Israel. But
there's a it's called
and he brings over there that originally
does anybody know who built up Keval?
the Keva, not quite how we have it
today, but the the iconic image of
Kevaka was built by
>> Moses Mafiori and the rabbis were very
unhappy with him that he did that. Why?
Because cababalistically, originally Ra
was just out in the field and she's
supposed to be out in the field because
Rael represents Iscallaya, the revealed
world and Raal needs to be open and
revealed and they weren't happy that
they she they covered her over in a
building. On the other hand, Leia
represents
the hidden realm. Okay? Which by the
way, the saddic of Ranana says that's
the reason why nowhere in the Torah does
it say that Leia died. Did you notice it
never records the demise of Leo? You may
know she comes from the hidden realm.
Therefore, her petira is hidden. Okay.
Now
in a nutshell the marriage the union of
husband and wife represents the union of
andess is God is our husband and we're
the wife and the union of man and woman
husband and wife represents that
relationship between and kinesis is now
hashem's connection to the Jewish people
is on two wavelengths
there are times that Hashem's love for
us is open and revealed. You know when
that is when the Ba Mikdash is standing
and when there miracles in the B mikdash
and when Hashem's presence is openly
felt and when they're open miracles that
represents Hashem's open love for the
Jewish people. However, we don't see
that love today. We don't see open
miracles. We don't see the revealed love
between and but there's another
dimension of Hashem's connection to us
and that's the hidden
immutable
unwavering love Hashem has for us that
even though we don't see it and even
though it's not open and we don't see
miracles, it's buried buried deep deep
down below the ground. It's immutable.
It can never be changed. It's a
constant.
Basically,
the two dimensions of Hashem's
relationship with the Jewish people are
reflected in Rael and Leia. Rael
represents God's open and manifest
relationship with Kalisaw. When the B
mikdar stood when the fire came down
from Shayim when the the when the smoke
of the went straight up to the heavens
that represents Hashem's open and
revealed relationship with with Kaz at
the timedam
Leo's relationship with the represents
the constant immutable unwavering love
that Hashem has for us in the gulos even
when we don't see it. friends, there are
two great places in this world. There's
Haram
and there's Masaka
and they're the same thing. They're just
polar opposites. Haramaria is the open
and revealed love Hashem has for Kessus
Israel. But the thing is we don't always
see it. So we don't have a B mikdash
today and we don't have open miracles
and we don't see Hashem's open and
revealed love for us. But there's
another relationship Hashem has for us
and that is the unwavering and immutable
love he has for us. The thing is it's
it's buried deep deep down. You can't
see it. It's covered over. And it's not
just covered over once, it's covered
over twice. And that's the
>> basically and haram Maria are polar
opposites from each other. even though
they're flip sides of the same coin.
Now, when a husband and wife
are married and then are buried
together, that reflects Hashem's eternal
relationship with the Jewish people.
>> Leia is buried with Yakavina.
The fact that Leia is buried with
Yakavino means that Hashem will always
be with us in the gulos.
But it doesn't always mean Hashem will
be openly revealed to us.
If raha represents the open relationship
Hashem has with Kalis,
the only thing is
because Rakha was not buried with
Jacobu. That meant the open relationship
Hashem has with Kl will be severed at
times in our history. When Yakov meets
Rael, he's for he's foreseeing into the
future. He wants to detect. He wants to
discern. I know there'll be times in
history where Hashem's love for Kess was
open and revealed. But will that always
be? And when Yakov sees that he's not
going to be buried with Rael, he
realizes, you know what? There will be
one day
mikdash. So when YaKob's first encounter
with Rael, he sees her. He sees he won't
be buried with her. You know what that
means? that one day the basikt will be
destroyed and therefore Jacobu cries in
his first encounter with Rael Emu. So
the fact that Jacob and Leia laid
together in the means Hashem is always
with us in the gulas.
It can never be destroyed. It's
unwavering. It's immutable. You could
even say it on Shabas. There's no at
all. By the way is
which means that the connection that is
established over here can never be
destroyed. It's only the open and
revealed connection, the connection
that's reflected by Rael that could
change.
Now there is no more beautiful source
for marriage
than the purchase of the why because it
demonstrates that the union of husband
and wife is not an arrangement. It
reflects the eternal relationship
between
Israel. There is no more significant
source to learn out the laws of Jewish
marriage to teach us that a Jewish
marriage is not just a specific
relationship. It reflects the eternity
of Israel. And
those are just some brief thoughts at
the marvat.
We're going to head now to the mativ of
the Ramban. Thank you for listening.
