okay good afternoon a shabas I'm very grateful that you're joining us today I just landed from uh London from a wedding in London and I'm very excited to share with you um some choice to for this week's para and for purm and for shab Zar so we have a lot to do and there's not a lot of time let's begin with connecting the beginning and the end of the parha this week as you see it's more of aav hopefully it's a good one because it was written was written on the plane so here we go the Begins the begins with the of the and it ends with the but what's interesting is even though you may ask what's the con between the Mana and the the of the is linked to the Mana because the at the end of the par that talks about the says when do you bring the you bring the when Aon cleans the man in the morning and when he Kindles AA in the evening so there's a very important link between the Mana and theas because the of theas is linked to the Mana Thea in the morning and the in the evening my friend R Danel wiin sent to me from r that R says it is not for not that the para Begins the par of the sanctification of theim with the a of the and it ends with the a of the as we know the ends with theas but there's an aspect of theas that rers is emphasizing namely when it comes to theas it says the cleaning of the which is the preparation for the as well and rers develops an idea that in Judaism it's not sufficient just to have these lofty spiritual Pursuits but action even it getting so to speak down and dirty by cleaning the Kus is also a uh equally if not more important so even though somebody may say I'm a big philosopher and I'm and that is reflected by the lighting of the but beyond that maybe even more important is the cleaning of the m and rever bring that the cleaning of the was actually took precedence over the according to the The KES in the morning was in middle of cleaning the N you were ma in theas between cleaning the first five and the and then the last two and it actually came before lighting them Ina okay here is another interesting idea that uh occur to me we know that the Mana in general represented the 50th sh of Bina like the V teaches us that why was because the and had to show Mana of fire the seven branches of the Mana the 11 knobs the nine flowers the 22 goblets a total of 49 represent the 49 Sharina they were all given to mha except for one but because M didn't have the 50th he didn't understand the meaning of the Mana itself so the Mana itself and lighting the Mana brings out the shun brings out the shun and indeed the par we know that Yer is also reflective of the secret of yel the 50th sh the 50th sh so the para begins with the Mana which reflects the sh and ends with the which also reflects the SH now here's one last idea the par begins you should command who's the youa so say no this is the parha where mha's name is absent but if you were to ask where is his name conspicuously absent it's absent in the very first because instead of saying it says and you what do you mean and you say his name so the name is so to speak removed from the first P why so the bat says that since this par talks about the rituals of Kim and really M should have been the but because he refused to toed to hashem's request Hashem sent AR instead therefore the ends um therefore the ends the special was given to in other words the par begins with the conspicuous removal of M's name what's the reason for that because the aido was given to AR and indeed the last p is uh is highlighting and focusing on the special AA that AR has and that's exactly why M's name is missing from the first okay that's that's the first offering for today
