The Kabbalah of the Rainbow. זאת אות הברית את קשתי נתתי בענן Kabbalah class Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

Welcome to our class answer this we're going to be learning this week a clinic discourse in the Reba the name of the Civic discourse is called the river said this discourse is which that year was the sixth day of the month of kashmin in the year tough scene memo so again the clinic discourse is based on the verse in this week's total portion where it says this is the sign of the Covenant where it says I put my bow in the clouds are cast us and the rainbow was in the clouds discourse on these verses um that's actually printed just now obviously with the urban study discourse uh and and and and observer said it seems like it's from the outer web why are you saying it's cease in the algebra it never goes on like a side note which we'll talk about and we'll get back to the point that he says that disc said the discourse is a piece which is actually in the acidic discourse from the samurai the Altima's grandson but he says that this piece is actually in the name of the altariba I said you could say that not only is this peace from the altario but also the beginning of the Hasidic disco system and to point out that even if you're going to say that's actually from the summer but it's still not com difficult to understand that this that this part that he's bringing is also in the alterable like we following other places in order like ever since we find many places that the brings language from the altar of alter over the first or from the middle of the second cabadra and he doesn't say that he's quoting them in other words even though at times he does say he's quoting them it's different the fact that at times he says and he doesn't say and he's still quoting them so it's not a proof when he doesn't say that's not from them whatever reasons that someone stomach has there are times he mentions that he's quoting them the times he quotes him he doesn't mention it so therefore the point I was making is not only is this piece but it's possible the whole thing's from the altar about um and this and this doctor doesn't this is something that doesn't bring the first part as well he says it could be for two reasons or it may be that it was written by The Summit before um he received that peace from the altario that's possible or that the part that's written he receives it afterwards but the point I was making is whoever was able to bring this this course should we receive a tremendous blessing that we finally have the the powerful teaching from the altar which again which is written by this but the fact is it's for sure it's and never says he thinks for sure you must say it's locked from the altariba okay so that's a sign though let's go back to the point so in this Civic discourse so he says over there as follows he brings the question that's brought down in all the commentaries and in the discourse from the samach sadak in the beginning again the ultimate's grandson he actually brings down all the different commentaries and lists their names and and their questions Etc and the question they ask is what's this novel idea that God says I'm going to put my rainbow the fact is that the rainbow existed before the flood as well and and he says after after the flow After the flood oh I'm gonna put my rainbow in the sky the fact is that the rainbow is a natural thing in other words when the sun shines and then you have on one side of the cloud and the other side of the cloud you have you see you see you see the rainbow it's a natural thing it's not like a new thing God developed over here so the question is what does it mean that also After the flood God says I'm going to bring my song which is a rainbow we had the rainbow before the idea of the clouds then that in reference to the clouds it says in the cloud we're going to put the Rainbow on a spiritual level so first we're going to try to understand again the the clouds with the Rainbow on the spiritual level and he explains like this in reference to the clouds um that's in the sky and obviously on a spiritual level there's two levels and it was this one a positive a positive idea about the clouds in other words that when there's when there's a powerful light a very very powerful light that we cannot we cannot receive and appreciate so what happens is you need to have the cloud to find to to diminish a little bit so we can receive it so in other words God wants to give us a big a big gift a big light it's too much for us so what does God do he creates a cloud so the cloud will will tone it down a little bit so we can have a some kind of benefits from this powerful light and like for example there because an example it says we know it says so you have the youth cave off okay the infinite part of Hashem you have a little Kim defining part of Hashem so just like you have the Sun and you have the shield so that if you go out into the sun it's too bright if you can get burned the same thing also Hawaii is the infinite part of Hashem is the final partner serum in other words Justin you cannot look into the sun without a shield so the same thing also you cannot receive the powerful youth cave off okay without saying mother Kim so the other Kim acts as a protector for shame of value just like the there's the protector for the for the son and the same thing also Messiah comes what's going to happen then Hashem is going to take the Sun out of its protector and then we're not going to need to have the seal the same look him we're going to receive directly from you came off okay so and and the same the same idea applies when it comes to Russian games what is it when Hashem gave the Torah so it says why do you have to come down to the cloud because since the revelation of Martin Terror and garagese was so powerful so in order for us to to to to receive that powerful of Revelation what you have to have you have to have the cloud up to the point that the cloud and its source is actually higher than the Revelation like the verse says the clown and the sources much higher and that's the same idea like we find in reference to the uh the the cloud that comes from the torrent onion Kippur the incense which how does that come from that comes when we do chuva which are obviously referring to the clowns on a very high level the level of okay so what we learned so far there's one idea of a cloud the purpose of the cloud is to allow us to benefit from something very powerful and tones it down a little bit and actually Derby says the source of the cloud comes from a very very high source that's one type of cloud but then there's a cloud which is a negative Cloud what's the negative Cloud which is referring to when it's so down the graded in other words because it comes down from one level to the next level and one concealment and one another Veil up to the point where it's like broken so in other words so what happens from there from from the cloud of a holy Cloud what happens is it comes down um different permutations of the shame of looking which is about contractions so you'll have a cloud which totally conceals and just and and blocks and creates a full blockage and because of that actually the sins are compared to clowns like it says our sins are like are connected to word cloud why because this cloud is something which totally blocks off and like it says our sins create a blockage and I can explain that Lender ever says in Tanya in the party in other words what we learned so far the cloud could be two things one hand Cloud could be a tremendous beautiful thing because we have a very powerful light so we need to sum down tone it down and the source of the cloud comes from a very high place to allow us to experience something great on the other hand sometimes you have a cloud that totally blocks everything and that's actually a source of sinning because it's totally blockage you can't connect to the light now they answer the spiritual service just like you have the two levels of clouds on a spiritual level another a the cloud that allows us to appreciate and reveal a powerful light or the second type of cloud which totally blocks off any light so the same applies on a return on a physical level on a materialistic level in other words you have these light clouds that through the light clouds something which is light you're able to see and and benefits from the Sun at least for for a short period of time but then you have clouds on the very that make it very very dark and on that it says um I'll quote there's a day that the clouds are so strong it's like a very very day of judgment so in other words just like you have on a spiritual level the clown on one hand allows you to appreciate a heavy energy or the opposite where the cloud blocks everything off so the same thing applies to the physical clouds their clouds are allowance to benefit from the Sun and then there are clouds that totally blocking off and it's compared to the idea of walls of judgment based on this River explains beautifully that's why now we'll understand the whole idea of the cat the the Cassius the rainbow which was introduced after the flaws what does that mean it never explains Like This Before the Flood the world wasn't refined people send it was a it was a it was it was not a refined world and therefore the clouds that existed before the flood was in a way that the light of the sun couldn't come through it and we couldn't benefit from the Sun and therefore you could not have the the ray of the the rainbow coming through the cloud it was too dark it was too strong however After the flood and the world got refined from the flood the world was purified from the tremendous amount of water so then the clouds became much more lighter and up to the point that his son is able to come through the questions so what was the rivers crushed me for from all the different commentaries the rainbow exist before there's no no the clouds Before the Flood were so strong nothing went through zero benefit After the flood they became much Refinery there that were you able to see the sun that's able to see the rainbow now This Cloud which again the higher level of a cloud on a spiritual on a physical level which the purpose is to create Revelation is also connected to watch the idea of chuva repentance just like the clouds of the incense which takes place in on Yom Kippur where the cloud of the answers come from your Kipper it comes from the true or the repentance of Yom Kippur what is that and they're explaining this in other words just like literally a cloud so it says there's a Mist comes off from the earth and that that that creates that creates the ring in other words that the cloud which is the age the Mist comes from where it comes from the Earth where is where is he a cloud from where does the Mist come from it comes from the Earth so the same thing also on a spiritual level that which which refers to the work from the earth our physical work what is that that's referring to trueva so it was just like the Earth creates the cloud the same thing also our earth work our work from our from our first when we do our avoidal which is true though that create that that creates the Revelation I like driver says it's known but there's three levels of ear between the Sun and the Earth in other words you have the ear Which is closest to the Sun so that's very very hot the sun is very very hot so the air that's close is very very hot if you go down further so then the the the ear which is on the next level um that's obviously that's that's very that's that's the coldest but then when the the ear goes down to the ground and it hits when it hits off the ground then it becomes hotter again why because since the ear can go lower and it hits the ground so it's cold in Kabbalah it's called when it turns around so again give the sun you have the Earth the ear closest to the Sun is the hottest then it goes down and gets colder but then when it comes down and hits the ground then it turns back around because it can't go any further so it becomes hot again that what that's called again and that's like the level of truva now so therefore so the so since it's connected idea of true love so when we do our spiritual avoidance of truva of returning to Hashem so then what happens is we create the cashless we create the rainbow which we know has three different colors what's the whole idea of three different colors on the spiritual level so we know that the work of truva will return to Hashem it has to be on all three levels what are the three levels in the kindness Dean judgment Guru and Rockland compassion and like he explains in the discourse not only rock from compassion but rocking and Rob him intense um intense compassion and when a person does truva down here in this world under three levels of hasid kindness in judgment and Rob him so then what happens is we receive from a high the the Rainbow on all three levels the rainbow of kindness of dinner judgment and transcommerion and by when you receive that you what what happens and we nullify the three different strands of the opposite of Holiness up to the point where we erase all the sins totally erased and totally transforms so Jervis saying is very very powerful saying like this what happens as follows when we do chuva on all three levels we create the cashless which brings through that powerful eyes that goes through the veil and that gives us all the breath blessing and that's why he says this is the sign of the Covenant as kashti NASA that I put my rainbow in the clouds in other words when we do we do our work of returning Hashem so what do we do we create the unknown which Cloud the cloud the upgraded clouds that and these clouds bring all the blessings like it says God says and give you reign in your right time and the way where it's a covenant like it says that all the days you're gonna have all the different seasons the four different seasons of the year and Hashem is gonna create on a consistent level like you're supposed to and not only that as kashti and satibhana my rainbow I'm going to put in the clouds in other words you can say that possibly that in reference to the rainbow which comes through the cloud you even have higher than all the blessings that come from the cloud the cloud brings one type of blessing but when the rainbow it's even a higher blessing and like it's explained many many places with on on based on the verses kashti nasati that the rainbow that I put in to uh the clouds and those Kashi constantly word is something which is moikishly something which is very very close and part of me which is higher than all the revelations it's part of me it's almost like literally part of the essence of a college world who constantly referring to the essence of Hashem and like it says like the the image of the rainbow that's going to be in the cloud is is the actually the image of the honor Hashem and with the this powerful gift of connecting to the essence of Hashem is going to be in a way where it's going to be a covenant and we know that what's a covenant that two people walk through um walk through two parts and then it becomes one and the goal is that we become literally one with the color code and based on this over explain it says we're going to expand what it says in Azure this always says a powerful piece of the sower and it's brought down actually in the acidic discourses of the river maharash in other words don't be don't uh um uh be ready to receive until you see what the rainbow and the clouds so it knows the rainbow the sign of mashiach why is that because what we say what is the idea of the caches the rainbow it's referring to our voice on all levels of of judgment and rachman compassion and that creates the questions that come through so therefore once we do our voice of truva and we see the class we see the the the powerful clouds the the rainbow coming through the clouds then the story says oh now you can be ready to receive you know Messiah is coming why because all about machine is all about returning to go like it says clearly come to bring not even Sinners God forbid to but the holy people righteous people to return their sin because when we reveal the spark of mashiach in every single person every single childhood which means the idea of chuva through that we're able to reveal that when we do our actions and our avoidal in in the time of Godless and especially when we learn these powerful teachings in Torah what will happen is we'll have the remembrance on high from the general covenants that are some ways with Noah and especially in reference to the to the to the rainbow and because we remember and as it gets brought down you know in Rosh Hashanah we we read all the different remembrances and as we know that's an everlasting remembrance which is connected with the essence of our soul like it's explained that land in the teachers of the river rashab now this that we say that that the sun is by Kessa and and it's called key uh the covering of Rosh Hashanah and afterwards it comes down into the Tourette the ancient Yom Kippur and which is called Yom Kippur is called one day a year and up to the point there's a hundred uh blasts of the surface that we do in Roshana gets drawn into the of the sukkah because if we know which is the covering of the sukkah is made up of three letters 20. Huff is another 20 which total 100 so literally the blast of Rosh Hashanah of the cipher goes on onto the shakalasaka and the the Victorious the the uh it was also part of this and that's why actually the main part of the circle is All in This Rock it's all in the covering and through that we actually Merit a very very soon to sit in the sukkah which is going to be made of the skin of the Leviathan and as we're gonna have the sucker of peace and it's going to happen but when Messiah comes the righteousness we explained before that the rainbow oh that's in the clouds um when they're when you see them you can know that mashiach is coming and especially right now that we're in the last days of mashiach it's called like the expression is that defeat King Jersey what does that mean feet came to the feet because we know that the feet is referring to the three festivals that you have to be out in the regular that you have to go up to you have to go up to the basement and that's when the Jewish people went to the temple pesos not only in the three festivals but it's gonna be every single Shabbos every singles like it's brought down the Madras and the and it's like explaining the Madras energetic discourse in the river and this and it says over there that every Shabbos and every res height is and um and that's going to be coming through the holy clouds and like it's like the verse says in the prophets that we're going to have the the powerful clouds and up to the point where it's going to be that we're going to go fly to Eric just throw on on the clouds we're gonna go on the clouds you see it's all connected to the clouds and when you have the clouds then you have to be looking forward to mashiach humming and it's going to happen very very soon there ever says as it says we ask them you're going to be gathered all together Jewish people that every single one of us and individually is going to come on these holy clouds the company does and the same way we're coming to see we're going to come to be seen and it's going to be in a revealed way with the true and complete Redemption and like it says we said in our prayers what does that mean that before an air Shabbat before Shabbat starts there's a custom you have to taste in every single dish so the same thing also in reference to mashiach humming and therefore since we're getting ready for messiah to come so we have to have like it says in the prophets all the nations are gonna are are gonna serve us up to the point that we're gonna Merit very very soon to the Gula how much is the true and complete Redemption we're going to go with the clouds of golori a day through with meshiach and Keno um to the land of Israel so here you see you have another beautiful powerful acidic discourse about the kabbalistic insights to the different to the rainbow and the clouds the positive clouds and negative Cloud but more importantly the cloud that comes through our voice of truva and we do our truva on all three levels that causes um uh like he brings in the Zohar the revelation of mashiach and then we're going to know that we can get ready for coming our next class will be in your shalayim here have a great and blessed week
