Decent to Exile for Ascent of Redemption. הבאים ישרש יעקב Kabbalah class by Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

Welcome to our class on we're going to be learning beautiful discourse in the rebba the name of the discourse is called the Reb said this discourse on and that year was the 23rd day of the month of it was also the shabas that blessed the month ofat in the year 37 years ago so again theic discourse is based on the verse in the prophets which the of the shabas that says that in the coming days Jacob will will will give root it's going to Blossom the Jewish people are going to Blossom and he used the name is over here the whole world is going to be filled with beautiful fruit so it's brought down the discourses that this that the prophet says in the future Yash it's going to take root so the word Hab is referring to the same word Hab where it says in the beginning of what does it say there this is the name of the Jewish people that they entering so that is connected to this in other words that this verse of is speaking about when the Jewish people are entering into Egypt so it's known the question that's pointed out in the in theic discourse of the AL who is celebrating his on the 24th day of the month of T in his classical work in and he has over there AIC discourse say which he explains um this idea and then he gives an additional explanation as well so that's in the AL also in in in length in the different discourses of theab afterwards and the question he has is what's the connection in other words what's the connection with the Jewish people are entering Egypt with the idea of of of of Yash that yak is going to take root that's question number one also we have to understand the three different points that are brought out in this verse in other words there three levels first he says Yash the Y is going to take root and then it says is is going to Blossom and then it says afterwards the whole world is going to be filled with fruit so what are these three ideas also we have to understand why when it comes to Yash it says Y and when it says to Y to per to blossoming it says th name Isel okay so explains as follows and he said like this that generally speaking this verse is talking about on a spiritual level about theama about The Godly Soul coming into the body now we know the Godly soul that comes into the body it's a tremendous downgrade it went from the highest place it was with God in God's great palace and it comes down to this lowly Abyss up to the point when it comes down to this world this world it's it's it's it's coming down so deep means it's coming down from the highest places to the lowest places which is basically a downgrade which you can't even compare there's downgrades people have in life there's upgrades but they're relevant they're relative here it's told so far off now so on one hand the Nama came from the most highest place and it came down to the lowest place we we don't mean high low you mean physically means spiritually know High means god revealed and over here God's totally concealed and but but then the question is what was why is the soul coming down from such a high place down to this world and the purpose is is the ultimate purpose of coming down into such a low place means your godl godliness is concealed the purpose is for a greater elevation that's going to take place afterwards why is that because specifically in this physical world you can connect with the essence of a the part of hem that there's no cause and no no reason Etc and nothing before it and like it's explained many places in again so the so it's referring to the soul on high coming down to this world and the question is why because ultimately it's all about tremendous upgrades going to happen afterwards and that's why he says in other words that specifically in Egypt in the place which is the most lowest place means the place where God Is So concealed and God is totally not welcomed there and from there you have taking root Yash is from taking root and every add another word and the main point and like the like he quotes from the Zoya the Zoya says that in specifically in Egypt specifically in the lowest places you have the main and the root of everything in other words he's bringing out two points one is it's the root of everything and B even after you have everything it's the main point it's the root and the main point the root and the main point is that specifically in the lowest places we have the power to create the greatest greatest upgrade and so this idea is also in in our very very personalized and specific mission in this world in other words because what's our main uh spiritual work in this world it's dealing with places we call it t where God's concealed and what does that mean practically that means when we so we totally don't have god um as a real reality God is Not revealed and the way we connect to God it's called a lower level of of it's not like it's a meditation it's not like we see it but we just practice restrained and idea ofab so the two spiritual avoiders the two Spiritual Works which takes place in a place where God's concealed is two ideas one is a low level of eura just you're afraid of God and that's why you don't Rebel and you do what he ask you to do and also C you accept you don't understand you don't feel it but you accept like the auor explains in Tanya that the idea of to be in all and to accept that is actually the initial path of serving hem and that is the main path and that is the that is the root of all the paths so the first way to connect to when the lights are so to speak off and you don't see the God and the godliness and things don't make sense and things are Beyond human comprehension Etc or Godly comprehension so what you do is you basically have you just you're an or of and you accept whatever has to be done you could say that these two ideas besides the fact that it's it that it's the source and from there come out all the details but even afterwards you when you deal with your specific mission that you're dealing with the fact is that being an Orem that is the that is the that is the main purpose of everything that we're doing and like the re brings zo the Zoya says that and I'll say it in Hebrew I'll translate itra the it's the main and the root of everything in other words it's not only the root of everything it's actually the main point and therefore but since that's the main point of what to be in Orem and to accept so specifically by by being an A and accepting we actually connect to the essence of hem and that's also connected to the name of Yakov why because Yakov is made up of two parts the y letter Y and a which means heal and other words referring to the but the way it's in the heel the way it's in the lowest levels the god godliness in the heel Yakov is you know it's a beautiful translation saying is yakob is made up you God but the way God is in the heel where God Is toally concealed and you can say the explanation is that specifically um by having over in the heel where God is totally concealed that is the source and the main of everything why CU besides the fact that there's a rule in cabala that anything which is really really high when it falls it falls very very low so if if it's not so low it doesn't come from a high source when something is so low that means the source it's much higher so therefore in the a the source is from the highest level that's Point number one and also it's known that all the levels of year even from the lowest levels connect to the highest level of Euro so in other words what's the main point the essence of the lower level of Euro which is the Y the lower Y is actually y the higher Y which basically is connect to Y saying is a basically from the for there's two reasons why from this lowest level connects to the highest one is because we say col whatever is on the highest goes down to the lowest and B since all the levels of year are connected so in the essence of the lower level of Y you connect to the highest level of Y now even though the yud which again is referring to the year the or for that we have and that's the main and that's the root of everything but in order to fulfill God's desire and we know God had a desire he want to have a dwelling place down b in a place where God is so to speak concealed and unwanted the place where he's unwanted the place where he's concealed it's a place where he's not recognizable that's where he wants to live and when God wants to live he wants to live in everything in other words it's not enough that the year is a source and a remain of everything but literally we have to per we have to make sure that God is involved in every single part because otherwise it's not a dwelling place for hem and that's why the that's why the prophet continues on to say so again the first part shave talks about the the Y aave way God is in the lowest level and that's the main and that's the source but then he goes on to say Y which means that from the the roote and from the main point you have to afterwards it has to Blossom and has to give forth in all the details and that's why it says the name Israel why that from the yud which before we said it comes only into a into the hill but so not only goes into the hill but it also goes into y because we know Isel is made up of two words Le that is on the on the head side so in other words so the idea is you want to to have godliness now to the lowest but also into the head part and also like from we know that one of the reason yob is called Israel is because he fought with go with with with the angel of God and he overpowered him in other words what does that mean that we should be we should be in charge of bringing godliness into into everything and as we able to conquer every part of the world and make it a dwelling place for our now but says one second that's still not enough why because it's possible yeah you're going to learn and you're going to pray where in sh or in Yeshiva Etc but the ultimate purpose is not only to learn in Yeshiva not only to to pray in a synagogue but the ultimate purpose is to make the whole world a dwelling place for Hashem whether you're in the street whether you're at office whether you're traveling wherever you are you should always stop to pray and study and that's how you make God's Dwelling Place all over the world and that's why it says the third part of the verse says that the whole world is going to have the fruit which means that this idea of learning doing is all over the world in other words in a way that it it conquers the whole world and the way of expression is T and like it's brought down the discourse is what does t mean t is referring to theh of ofina and also um so mean meditation thinking Etc and also t comes from the word of give it know what does that mean to like to give and we know when someone gives you give it a full heart so the idea is to bring down a complete drawing down of God and godliness into the world in into the world say he like to connect this with the beginning of Torah portion where it says and these are the names of the Jewish people are coming down to Egypt and what it says in the medis that these names is referring to the Redemption even though we're going now down into Egypt we're ready thinking about the future we're thinking about the Redemption what does that mean that when the Jewish people went into Egypt right when they went in already they were thinking about the Redemption there's no such thing as yeah we're going in but it's only temporary we have to be focused on the Redemption up to the point that the Redemption is going to be like it says in the portion afterwards what do what does V mean that God appeared you have the revelation of R seeing as we know you can't compare hearing hear say versus seeing it other words that's going to be the essence of the Revelation mashiah comes like it says clearly in prophets God revealed all going to see godliness now since it's going to be in a way of seeing so therefore everyone's going to have everyone's going to be equal when it's when it's here in this one hears like this that one he like that but when it's seeing we all see the same thing it's unity and that's why it says in the in the Torah then sang All the Jewish people together that this song was through MOA and the Jewish people up to the point that even like the the the um babies in the mother's womb and everyone sang Hashem together and in one in in one in one song not different type of songs all everyone one sang One songs up to the point where it says o Yash and it um which means in a singular term that everyone sang One song to together and the same thing is also going to be in the future mhia comes when we sing the 10 song and also over there it says and like the tell us it doesn't say sure he's saying but in the future as we referring to the the future song of mhia comes and then also it's going to be in a way of unity everyone's going to sing sing together and especially we say this every single day in the in the morning prayers the after the which is the different psalms of praise of hem and it's possible the says it's actually the the summation of all the praising of hem in other words because um um since you're getting you're getting involved to go in to deal with the physical world like we know that you have after prayers you have to go and get involved do parasa and deal with the materialistic world and even what um but you say this prayer before you even you you learn Torah because we know first you go to to to to synagogue to pray and then you go to go to study and then we finish off at the end of the prayers what do we say only righteous people praise and says we wishes that should actually happen in in a literal sense that should be only righteous people should praise hem and we should sit straight up in front of hem and should happen very very quickly very very soon in our days with the building of the Third Temple and like finishes off beautifully here you have another powerful beautiful cic discourse and it guides us what our spiritual avoid is our spiritual work is to have to have cabal but then to bring it down internalize it in every single aspect of our life and ultimately says to create the ultimate unity singing all together and through the unity we will Merit the um Coming of mhia and God willing our next class will be have a great and blessed week sh
