Parsha Terumah - Shekalim Chasidic Torah thought from Lubavitcher Rebbe by: Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

[Music] welcome to this week's Torah lesson this week's Torah portion is par truma it is also par so the question of the week is why do we need a Reba so this week as we read Trum and more importantly we learn about the mitvah of where every single person brought a half coin and they brought it to M and the question is why why is it that they aid they had to bring a half a coin and why to so the re explains and he says we know that the uh Jewish people have something which is called Faith now Faith there's different levels of Faith there's Faith which is connected to shim which is connected to the spiritual level of Mal God fills the world then this faith in sh which is the level of which is a level which is cannot be internalized in the world and then there faith in asmos the essence of hasem but the reality is that as strong as faith is and faith is great but Faith needs to be internalized and how do we internalize it that is through Mo and that's whyem said they should bring the mo and the reason why they had to bring a half a coin was because in order to connect and to bring down faith that should be internalized you have to to do your part and that's why they have to do their part by bringing a half a shekele and the other half was the faith that they received from Hashem so they answer the question why do we need a rebba you need a rebba to internalize faith faith is powerful we all believe but Faith should be real and practical that is what a rebba guides you and directs you how to internalize and make Faith work for you in a real practical way thanks so much for joining us for our weekly Torah lesson this week's Torah lesson lesson is dedicated to memory of May the souls be elevated by Torah was studying in the memory for more information please see our website kabad sf.org have a great and blessed week shaba to
