Welcome to our class onto this we're
going to be learning a beautiful sort of
discourse in the river the name of the
discourse is called
the Reba said this discourse from
Shabbos
that year was a 26th day in the month of
Sivan which was also the Shabbos that
you bless the month of tamus in the year
tough Shin men has 35 years ago
discourse is based on the verse in this
week's Torah abortion where it says
go ahead and send people which is
referring to the spies to scan out the
land of Israel and then the Torah says
and the Torah tells us
to all the people so Rashi says what
does that mean all the people in Russian
says at that time they were kosher when
they went and they were sent by moisture
they were holy people they were kosher
people they were going on a holy Mission
so that's a simple question
if we're gonna save if they were holy
when they went in they were kosher so
why didn't they want to go into the land
of Israel they came back and the
terrible report they don't want to go in
they were kosher people the holy people
what does that mean whatever Hashem says
you do so what does it mean they don't
want to go into the land of Israel so
the in the Torah which is the Hasidic
teachings from the altarb on the
parashar in the beginning of the Torah
portion which we know that's called the
term is called the Hasidic Torah portion
and the author explains that the Mirage
Lim the spies they were in a very very
high level and because they were in a
very high level they didn't want to go
into the land what does that mean
practically they didn't want to lower
themselves to deal with physical Mitch
vote
because in the land of Israel what's the
main service working the land the
materialistic that's why it's the
physical mid space and they wanted to
stay on a spiritual level in other words
what does that mean they were in a high
level so to explain the the high level
of the of the monogamous spies so the
ottoman could deterior he gives two two
explanations
one explanation is
that the muradlim they were living in
the world of debor the world of speech a
matter of fact that's why they're
actually called the deer Hamid by the
generation of the midboarder because
midboard desert has the same letters as
Deborah speech so in other words they
want living on the level of speech
however the land of Israel what world is
that in that's the world of action
and like literally that the main work in
the land of Israel was physical things
in other words you have to work the land
for six years and you have to you have
to work the The Vineyard for 60 years
and therefore they didn't want to get
into the line of Israel deal with it why
because they have to spiritually
downgrade from speech to action which is
a tremendous downgrade up to the point
it's not just a downgrade it's it's it's
it's exponentially a huge downgrade Okay
and like and where do you see that like
it's brought down in in other places
into this that if you look at the letter
hey the letter a is structured there's a
line on top
there's a long going um up and down
which is connected to it there's a gap
and then there's another small small
that so the three lines in the letter a
and as we know the letter hey Hashem
used to create the world is connected to
amongst many things it's connected to
the idea of makshava thought divorce
speech and my son action in other words
the upper line is referring to Mark
Shabba thought the right line is speech
and the left one the little one on the
side is action now
so you have thought speech is connected
and then there's a gap and then you have
action so this that this the left leg is
not connected fully to the hay which is
again thought and speech so you see that
the world of action is totally
disconnected and you can't compare it to
the idea of what in thought and speech
now so that's the recap so the first
level is that the the the these the
spies were on the level of speech and
Israel is a level of action and the gap
between speech and action maybe we want
them to stay in the world of speech
that's one of that's one one opinion on
the of the level of neurogram and the
lion of Israel another Insight without
the way the author explains the Clinton
tell you another opinion that the level
of despise wasn't your speech but
actually they were in the level of
thought which is even higher than speech
and the land of Israel is in the level
of speech and they didn't want to come
down to the line to the level of speed
of speech and everything you can add to
it so you can see how great the
downgrade is because they don't want to
go into the physical line of Israel
because the physical land of Israel is
literally action and therefore
the miraculum that again either
according to the first opinion they
would level on of speech and Israel's
level of action or the second opinion
neighborhood and level of thought
Israel's level of speech and then the
physical land is action they don't want
to come down to that level
okay so what do we see from here that
the spies the spies they didn't want to
go into the land of Israel why because
they don't want to lower themselves to
deal with materialism with physicality
it never goes on now a step further and
even deeper with an introduction
which there was a sudden it's a wondrous
idea which needs explanation why in
other words
what's the reason why the ultimate it
goes into local tour at Great length
about the tremendous quality of the of
the spies they were in the level of
thought their level of speech Etc and
you know he has the two levels
in other words he should have said very
simple why do you have to go into this
level of thought and the level of speech
that's that's not relevant what's
relevant is that they didn't want to
deal with physicality
irrelevant what level they're at what's
the main focus of the main focus is they
don't want to deal with materialisms who
cares thought speech bottom line is the
point is they don't want to deal with
physicality
so Urban explains and he says why is
this why is nevertheless Alberta talk
about the level of thought and speech
because the outer is trying to Ming out
at this day they want to go into the
land of Israel
it's not because they got forbid thought
that there's no reason to go into Latin
notice they were Belling again going
about going into the land of Israel that
we don't need the land of Israel no
yeah you need the line of Israel 100
percent
but they were saying was this has
nothing to do with us because we are on
the level of thought and we are the
level or the other opinion level of
speech so therefore why are we getting
involved in action so there is the rep
is bringing out the reason why the
algebra goes into great length to talk
about the levels of the Mirage limb is
to point out it's not gone for me to hit
anything against the land of Israel or
they get anything against action they
just felt like they're in the level of
thought and speech why get involved in
material doesn't want to get involved in
the physical part so based on this River
explains beautiful and he says this
because moisture didn't realize what
he's dealing with he's dealing with
people that are on the level of thought
and speech and they don't want to be
involved with physicality that's why my
shrubino was the one that sent him why
because the one that has the power to
elevate and transform physicality has to
come from a higher level of thought
thoughts of speech feels like okay I'm a
level of thought speech and it's only a
place to elevate materialism most
romantic which is even higher and
specifically because he's coming from
higher than thought and higher than
speech he's able to go ahead and affect
what the Torah says via suicide the
little translations to scan out the land
what what does the spiritual translation
of the term of Glycerine to create an
elevation an advantage in the land and
like and then like the way it's
literally because that's what happened
when they went into the land of Israel
and especially the way it's explained in
the kabbalistic insights and
that
we assume means that they created an
elevation what does it mean in elevation
to go ahead and Elevate and transform
the materialistic world the world of
action so in other words what we're
saying is that that's why they sent
moisture made a sentence because
moisturbating is what is
and he sent them to the goal was to go
in and to elevate the materialistic
world not only that what did the spies
say they said
um it's our bread what does that mean
in other words what does that mean that
these Sparks in the materialistic world
that is our bread that's how we have a
life substance
the materialistic world that's what
gives us sustenance in other words why
is that because when you eat a
materialistic Foods physical food what
does that do it unites the soul with the
body because if you don't eat what
happens the soul leaves the body so you
need the physical food even though it's
physical we're higher whether we're
we're human beings we have to come on to
the physical food to keep the soul and
the body United in other words the work
and the physical world the
elevates the person himself because the
person then becomes a mahalak he's able
to grow he's able to advance from life
up to the level
you can even go from one level to the
next so by getting involved in the world
you actually Elevate you create a Union
within the soul in the body and then you
actually have a huge upgrade
and the represents this is also hinted
by what it says afterwards that
moisturebainua
later on in partials it says that
moisture and who sent the spies and it
says in the Torah they sent the ragale
to spy out his yazir
um the city of yazar and it says these
spies they actually conquered it and
Rashi says because we're not going to do
like the first Buys in other words why
we're not going for like the first prize
because we have trust in the prayers of
moisture abeno in in to be successful in
the war in other words
which accomplished both points in other
words one point is that they went ahead
the spies went ahead and they went into
the land of Israel with the power of
moisturbanu and they were able to
accomplish a mission so the point of one
is they went with the power of moistura
they know they said they said that we
were that we're trusting a moisture
enemies they went through the power of
moisturbano and not only that what does
it say what is the city called yazir
yaza means come from like from helping
it knows that the literally that the the
part of the the world itself helps in in
their service Yazoo means it helped them
the world will tell us hold them and I
was like just like it says yes Ryan it
actually elevates and adds to the person
in other words so the point that was
written down is not only is the world
needs us to elevate the world but we us
human beings we need the world because
that's how we get elevated so what they
what they accomplished the second set of
spies
is one is they went with the power of
moisturbanu and be they actually were
successful in elevating the world but
more importantly elevating the cell
elevating themselves
one second so we stuffed in the sand
because the fact is
in the spies that we're talking about
right now
the the spies did not do their mission
they were sent with the power of
moisturbano to go ahead and Elevate the
world and Elevate themselves and they
didn't do it
but on the other hand you must say that
if moisture of Anu sent them as a
emissaries
moisturbano's mission was accomplished
maybe they didn't Merit to be the proper
emissaries to accomplish it but moisture
Avenues a mission has to be accomplished
so on one hand we're seeing they did not
do their job but on the other hand how
is moisturbanon's Mission being
accomplished emotional minimizer has to
be accomplished and how do we know it
has to be accomplished like we see
that's understood from the talmuda that
we know how do you know
that when you want when someone
sanctifies hashems you can sacrify in
private but then you sanctify Hashem
what's called sanctifying Hashem that's
when you do it in public what's called
Public public means there has to be at
least 10 Jewish people how do we know
that sanctifying Hashem has to be among
at least 10 Jewish people because we
learn it out from this story of the
spines because that moisture said
until when will you have this Ada this
community this terrible Community which
is including the ten spies which
obviously is not including you swim in
color because they didn't cover her bad
reports so you see that where do you
learn out
that sanctifying hashem's name is with
10 people it's in this story so
obviously moisturbano's mission of
sanctifying hashems they must have been
accomplished but how is it accomplished
never explains beautiful and he says
like this
that in reference to the part of the
spies that had to go into the land of
Israel so whoever quotes Rashi the Rashi
says that Yeshua and Kaleb they took the
place of all the other spies that and
and they they elevated what they were
supposed to elevate and want the other
spot oh but the other spies are supposed
to elevate in other words
so there's no question my charbaino's
mission of elevating the Earth by
sending the spies was accomplished yes
unfortunately defense wise didn't do
their job but the mission was
accomplished by who by Yeshua and Khalif
now so that is only in in the term in in
learning in studying it's called and the
physical part of the earth got elevated
through what the other spots but the
fact is in reference to the spies
himself the Gamba the human being of the
spa is seemingly was missing they didn't
they didn't they didn't accomplish a
mission my drivers have something
beautiful and we know this is the one
the gifts of Judaism but the factors we
know dribba says there's nothing that
stands in the place of true God so even
when the spies botched up and even when
anyone else match up so again there's
two parts the mission gets accomplished
through someone else but when you botch
up what but you didn't you didn't do
your job but there's nothing that stands
in the way of truva when someone decides
they want to return to Hashem and in the
contrary about truva someone that messes
up and does truva Hashem
loves that person much greater than
before he sinned so before you sin
you're great you're okay amazing you
didn't know anything wrong when you sin
uh-oh but then you do true love is even
better so in other words
after the Mirage Lim went ahead in the
truth we know the spies they did true
but they repented so what happened was
that they were elevating themselves like
this two important points number one is
that motion Arena's mission was
accomplished in the land of Israel
unfortunately through the spies but
through Yeshua and Khalif
but the spies later on when they did
true but they themselves were elevated
drama says a terror we know is
Everlasting it's not a story in the past
it's past present and future all-in-one
terrorism Everlasting and it's brought
that in many many places like in time
since Torah is Everlasting so obviously
every part of Toyota has a lesson
Everlasting lesson for all the times in
all the places now since the spies we
said at that time when they were sent
they were kosher they were holy people
not only that they were in a very high
level like we learned during the level
they would level up D boy they're very
very high level so it's self-understood
that also in reference the miragulum
there's a lesson that every one of us
can learn
and it's a lesson which is an
everlasting lesson and it's and
obviously it's more important when it's
really strong is when you learn the
partial and especially we're learning
the silicone portion of the outer
Rebellion
um so what is the last number explains
like this
in reference to both opinions that you
mentioned before it's not only that
they're both correct there's an
expression
they're both correct and whatever you're
talking about but also the the the the
point and the message of both insights
in other words whether they want the
level of thought on the level of speech
is true and every single one of us are
we serve Hashem in other words we all
have areas of our life that we want to
stay in the world of thought we want to
stay in the world of speech but the
point is we have to leave sometimes the
level of thought and level of speech and
get involved in action
in other words whether you're in the
world in the world of thought or the
world of speech you got to get down to
reality
in other words because the fact is every
one of us we have our thoughts which we
know that the Shabba is our thoughts so
we know there's four worlds ourselors
so the thoughts are connected to which
world the world of Bria and like we said
something blessings in the morning
Activa rasa the world of Bria atarita
which is the world you can see of the
afternoon faculty which comes down to
reality so in other words you have
created it's referring to the part of
Brie of our soul which is basically the
world of thought after your chart has
been part of your cereal of our soul
which is the world of speech but the
ultimate intent is that the thought and
the speech should not say in the world
of thought and speech but they should
come down the world of action we have to
come down to reality up to the point of
afternoon
in other words this is basically the
the the uh the essence of our work every
single day that we go out to work
um we go out to work
um every everything every single day
what does that mean practically in a
spiritual level the soul comes down into
the body and through the fact that the
soul comes in the in the body because we
know that the shamans on a very high
level whether it's here
et cetera so when it comes down to this
world it has the power to elevate the
world transform the world up to the
point
that after you elevate the world the
world goes back and elevates the Soul as
well now everybody finish opening sounds
like this when we do our spiritual work
to bring down our thought
our speech
um Bria yitzira into the world into the
physical world and others ideas to
conquer the world even the the part
which is outside the land of Israel and
like the famous line from the time of
the third but what did he says I'll
translate
which means make over here Eric Israel
make over here the land of Israel which
by which means like coming bringing your
thoughts and speech down to reality so
when we do that we what we accomplish is
we we bring and we bring close the
ultimate and the the ultimate future
Redemption that we're going to conquer
the land of Israel in a literally and
we're going to go literally physically
in the land of Israel not only yatra
says
it's going to be a in a way like it says
they live from the people which means
they took apart in the land of Israel
that this generation creates an
elevation and upgrade even in the in the
part of the earth that
generation before didn't have the
Redemption and by doing that we will
create the complete redemption in the
whole world and how much more so we're
going to create the completion of the
Jewish people up to we're going to
create the revelation of the the highest
level of our soul is going to come out
and it's going to come out in a way
where it's going to come down and the
lowest level the way the soul comes into
the body and never finish off and says
and he hopes that this should all happen
the current mamas very very quickly the
souls will be coming back into the body
every single every single every single
every single Jewish person from all the
generations and how much more so the
souls in the body of this generation
because through that we create an
elevation in all the souls and the
bodies of the previous translation and
more importantly and most important
number says we should do or our avoidal
of getting involved in the world we
should do it what happiness the two of
love and gladness of heart up until the
point that we have the revelation of the
simcha like it says in the prophets
you should be rejoiced the better woman
that didn't give birth is going to give
birth we're going to have the birth and
the revelation of mashiach coming and
Hashem is not going to hold us back even
like literally like the blink of an eye
like Rashi says in reference when God
took the Jewish people out of Egypt
right in the middle they took him out
and what does Russia say the minute the
time came boom it happened right away
and the take care from Yad Mama should
happen very very quickly and right away
so here you have another beautiful
powerful Southern discourse of the
revenue you ever explains the whole idea
of the miraculum on a spiritual level
wanting to stay in the world of thought
and speech we have to come down to
reality to transform the world this way
we transform the world we transformed
ourselves and ultimately it will
transform the world we're going to have
Messiah get revealed and next class will
be in your shalayim Iraqis have a great
and blessed week
