The Wise Sons Question. כי ישאלך בנך מחר לאמר מה העדות A Kabbalah class by Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

Welcome to our class on we're going to be learning a beautiful discourse in the Reb the name of the discourse is called when your child your son is going to ask you the Reb said this discourse on your Al niss the 11th day of the month of niss the re's birthday in the year 46 years ago the re went on to certify and edit this discourse in honor of the's birthday the 11th of Nissan in the year 34 years ago and this contr this discourse actually distributed own hands to the to the so again the discourse is based on the verse in Deuteronomy where it says when your son is going to ask you tomorrow what is Theos the testimony the the statutes of and Lords that God commanded us says this question Torah says that is actually the question of the wi son like it says in the what does the Wise One say what are the testimonies and it's known says the the the questions that are pointed out in the different discourse of the that since this child is called the wise one and other than what does wise mean we don't mean just he's a smart boy we're talking about wise and toyra so obviously he knows what the MIT are so that's the craze we're dealing with a wi s Torah what's his question what are the what is the what is the what what all these type of Commandments if you're wise and T you know what they are also D says you can add that from the continuation of the verse what does it say you're going to respond to your son and what are you going to tell him that God commanded us to do all these statutes and by doing that it's going to be good for us in other words we explain the value of doing a Mitzvah it's going to be good for us in other words so when we say what is the Aus what is the testimony we're referring to what what what are these mitv what quality does does does it have so if the question that is a wise person doesn't ask what's the value of the mitzvah that's question that's the next question further says we don't understand when you explain what's the reason of the Mitzvah it's like we the answering when you're answering the child so he says two ideas there's two things that we're telling your child number one is that we were in Egypt God took us out of Egypt and then he commanded us to do all these statutes in other words so since we were in Egypt and God took us out therefore we're obligated to to fulfill the go Commandments God asked us to do he's the one that saved us that's one point that the reason of the mitah is to to be grateful for Hashem taking us out of Egypt and therefore we we we we do all the Mitzvah and the second idea in Mitzvah is that by doing the Mitzvah that's going to be good for us all the days of our life now this that the response to the child explains two different components so obviously these two components one is the fact that God took us out of Egypt and because of that when he asked us to do the we doing the mitzvas he has has us to do and be that's going to be good for us obviously it's a novel idea for this for the son but the question is one second since he doesn't know what MIT are in other words not only does he know that it's good for us but he doesn't even realize that we're supposed to do it so why are you calling him a wise son also we have to understand like that's like brought down theic discourses where he says that God commanded God commanded you and not us and not himself he's not part of it even though he says that God commanded us see it's obviously he's including us so if that's the case why you say you if it's us then he should say us I he should have said that God command that I us or God commanded without saying es what's the purpose of of of of of of excluding himself with the second part in the says the point of the explanation that's brought down to discours is it's based on what it's known that the when the Patriarchs observe the mitz so generally speaking it was a spiritual observance of the Mitzvah all the Mitzvah they observed was on a spiritual level and the impact that they did in the physical world was only a vessel for the spiritual the spiritual connection so by the the MIT were to create a spiritual connection with on the other hand the MIT that were given to M to at Mount Si over there what change was it's no it's about doing the physical mitv and the doing the Mitzvah is not a preparation for the intent on the contrary the action is the more import most important part so in other words before we go further saying there a major difference between the Mitchell before m before we receiv her and afterward before mountain by the it was all about the spiritual connection Mountain T shifted it's all about no doing the physical Mitzvah and just like in our case the Mitzvah of eating matah if someone's going to sit down by the Seder and it's going to meditate all the powerful intentions of the matah and God forbid he's not going to eat the matah he's not going to draw down any energy on the other hand when he eats the matah and even he had no intention no meditation he brought down the energy of mar into this world so therefore the question that the son is asking how do you bring down the revelation of the infinite part of God by your physical action by the it made sense they meditated and they connected to God and they brought in Godly energy but after the M ter just by doing a physical eating matah You're Bringing Down the same energy and that's why he says what what what is the aidos what is it testimony that God commanded you referring to the our spiritual work after we receive the toyra which means the physical work not the spiritual one like like the Patriarchs and his question is how we drawing in the revelation of the infinite part of God by doing something physical and what's the response you should tell the child that we were slaves to par in Egypt and God took us out and he commanded us to do these statutes in other words going into Exile into Egypt and coming out of Egypt that's a preparation of receiving the T and M to there was something that was given a gift from hasem that we have the power by doing a physical Mitzvah L to do the the statutes and specifically lass to do that through that we have the power to bring down all the energies that the Patriarchs did through their spiritual service and after to the point that not only we bring down the powerful energies we can literally bring down the essence of hem so this is what's explained in theic discourses know the spiritual idea of the mitz and that explains what the what what he's what the child is asking like how we going to bring how we going to accomplish through the physical mitzvas and the response is yes we went into Egypt we went out Hashem gave us a Torah and through because hasem gave us the Torah M SI now it shifted through the physical M so we can accomplish it that's the general an re says one second we have to understand this ex seemingly this explanation about the question that the wise son has what's this what's what's the question what we what are we responding to he responding to his difficulty is how are we going to accomplish bringing down godliness revealing godliness after M tell by doing a MIT a physical Mitzvah so in other words so that only explains that after we say that God commanded us so he's saying and that's why he says you referring to the people as after mro to bring out that his question is not on the mites of the Patriarchs but he's asking specifically about the MIT that answers that question but seemingly this will be understood even if he he even if he said that commanded us why does he have to exclude himself if we're saying Liv be form after fine I get it but why is he saying es you versus me we're all part of the same package also we have to understand when he says what is the the testimony The Hook and the statues and the m and the laws but what does that mean since he's asking in general about all the Mitzvah how do we draw down the light by doing a physical Mitzvah why is it important to spell out the different type ofz and especially that the difference that's created in the Mitzvah of that's all where's the difference it's in the intention it's in the meditation why because when it comes to the which is a statue so why are you doing it it's not logical but you're doing because said to do so that's one intention the MIT which is a testimony or a law you have to do it because there's logic to it we we're celebrating PES because God took us out of Egypt or other laws that that that disciplinary laws so if that's the case and so the question then is that what what does the adidos what does it have to do with with the physical Mitzvah if his only question is about what how do we draw down with the physical Mitzvah why is he giving us the division of which has to do more with the meditation with the intention part also we have to understand that the question that the son is asking is about all three types of like he spells out and response what say God commanded us to do the the statutes he only mentioned the STS if he's asking about all three why you only answering about one also we have understand that the difference between the three types of mitz adus which is a testimony which is a statue and Mish which is a law what what is the difference a mish a law is a a a Commandment that we have to do that logic even tells us to do do so for example not to steal logic says don't steal this is mine this is yours or respecting parents your parents brought you into the world you have to respect them aidus on the other hand a testimony which is basically to commemorate certain things so for example we we we God created the world in six days resed on seven therefore we rest on the seventh that's why we have shabas God took us out of Egypt that's where we have the Passover God gave us Huts in the desert so that's why we have the suot fillers to to to to remind us God took us out of Egypt that goes into the category of AD so these mitz of M which are logical and Aus which commemorate something even though that logic would dictate even if the T wasn't given um so logic would dictate you should go ahead and do it but on the other hand when it know if the ter wasn't given we would learn the laws of M from from from from from animals but once the T gave us the Commandments of the MIM and even though it does make sense but nevertheless when it comes to the that if T didn't give us this these statutes we wouldn't do them and why are we doing them because instructed us to do do so so based on this it should have said M which are logical first which are testimonies and then statutes in cabalistic terms it's called M you go from one level to the next or go from the highest irrational testimonies but the fact is in in the way it's written in the verse it's like seemingly it's like it's a funny order it starts with which have reason you're celebrating something which is a statue no logic and then you're going back to totally logic what's what's the why is he using this specific order of okay so we had a lot a lot of questions and now we're going to get into it says we're going to understand this based with an introduction what the previous Ser explains in AIC discourse with this uh title of that he said on the first pesak when he came to America to live and he and he and and specifically pointing out when this wise person asks what's his question he's asking es you know the fact that he says you and he doesn't say us seemingly that's a wise person he's almost like a wicked person he's saying it's your mitzvah and he's not he's not including himself in it and he adds in theic discourse even though it says hasu he is calling God as God know he's he is part of the Jewish people and it's my God that means he's accepting the Yoke of has upon himself so that is all in regard to the general acceptance of Hashem but it comes to the details of AD he says you he's excluding himself from it and seemingly from the expression discourse so what comes out the issue is that he says in other words not only do we need to know why he says but also why why he says and not he doesn't include himself into it in other words because you can God it think when he says and he is included it's only about the general idea of accepting the Yoke of hasem but in reference to the detail he's excluding himself okay so the re explains and he says as follows that when it comes to doing a Mitzvah there's two components of doing a Mitzvah on one hand every Mitzvah commanded us a Mitzvah it's a command from Hashem and that from that perspective all the Mitzvah are alike every Mitzvah commanded us to do so that's one part of Mitzvah on the other hand that the Mitzvah are different they go into three different categories you have the the testimonies you have the which are the statutes irrational laws and you have the rational laws and these two components of again the fact that it's a mitem and the fact that there's differences they they um they apply not only they apply also when you observe the Mitzvah in other words when you observe the Mitzvah there's two type of intentions in Hebrew it's called kavanot two type of of two types of intentions in other words what does that mean you have the general intention I am going to do mitah I'm doing coming to do mitah and that by all the Mitzvah is equal anytime you do any Mitzvah of the 613 Commandments 248 positive the 365 negative you right now what are you doing you're doing the Mitzvah that's in general more specific then you have the Fulfillment of the Mitzvah of for example a us a testimony which is a sign or commemorating something so that's one type of mitzvah or because it's a it's a statue it's a decree or because it's something which is which which makes sense so therefore the wi son is asking what does that mean since in all the mitz They what's the common denom command us to do the Mitzvah so why do we have to get involved in differences this is a testimony this is a statue this is this does make sense ultimately it's MIT was asking us to do so so therefore he points out theic discourse even after he says God our God gave us gave us the commandments so you might think that when it comes to the specifics and the differences in the midst of so to speak he's trying to pull himself out of the diff differences so therefore know he's trying to say listen I'm willing to do any mitah details not me I just want to do mitah so you might think he's like excluding himself from the from the the details and the nuances in the Mitzvah so in order to take this away he's so seemingly he should have said he should have included himself to make it clear no there's two parts of every Mitzvah there's a general part of a Mitzvah there's the details the specifics and I'm part of both of them but the fact that he says Es as if he's trying to create a message when it comes to doing the I'll do all the I'm doing because told me to do it that's that's for you I I have no part of that of all these differences so that's basically the question why is why does he why doesn't why does he say says well understand this like way want explain the discourse that the three ideas of and he starts with that first as we know we'll have to deal with that later statue and rules they apply in every Mitzvah that's powerful in other words even the Mitzvah of a statue even the Mitzvah which was irrational even the Mish of mish which is rational they also have a component where it's also a testimony how do how do we get that from because the verse says specifically in reference to the that when all the MIT is some a component of a testimony so you see that which is the first one applies to an but it also applies to the same thing also in reference to statutes that even the mitz which are logical which means a testimony or a mish that's going on the general Mitzvah but but not on on on on the details of it and basically why this detail why not another detail because the answer is because there's a every mitzah has a component of hook into it it has a component which is beyond logic and the same thing also we referenc the logical part even the Mito which are a testimony even the ones that try statue above above logic they all have a component of logic into it so in other words before we go forward what was saying every Mitzvah has a component of there's a there's a primary part of the Mitzvah but every Mitzvah has each component in it what does that mean he says like this because when it comes to revealing hasem through doing a Mitzvah generally speaking there's three there's there there's three Revelations that take place through do by doing a Mitzvah what does that mean on one hand you have the light of hem which gets enclothed in the world which what do we call that in cabala the light of God that comes into the world that's more tangible and more we can relate to it it's something which show the light fits the vessels it's a light that we can connect to so one one type of mitzah what does that do it brings a light into the world in a way thatal we get it then you have a different type of Light which is higher than the world but has a connection to the world what is that referring to and then you have what we call the essence of the infinite part ofm which has no connection to the world so you have the the part that comes in the world the part that hars over but it's connected to the world and then you have the essence of has which really has no connection to the world now the light the light that fills in the world that's something which we can comprehend we get it so there how do we draw in that light any time you do a Mitzvah which makes sense to you you're bringing in mean you your intellect comprehends it you're bringing in every time we accomplish do a Mitzvah it made sense ah I got it what are you bring into the world into your life on the other hand when it comes to the light of you can't comprehend it or even say you don't comprehend it in other words because this that you're saying that that this that that um you can't comprehend it so what does that mean you're basically nullifying the understanding of it so how do you bring it in you bring it in by not understanding it by by by it's a rule by it's a it's a statue in other words you're basically saying even though I don't understand it and I'm not going to I'm not going to question myself and when you do a Mitzvah you actually draw in which means it's a light that that connected to the world above the world and then you have the essence of the infinite part of hem which has no connection to the world so you can say you don't comprehend it it has no has no connection with comprehension like he brings a powerful teaching where it says in t that someone says in reference to Hashem um that you can't comprehend it so that's like a white person saying that you can't touch intellect anyone's going to laugh what does intellect have to do with touching know when you say you don't understand something that means it has some kind of connection so you can say you don't understand you have a connection you saying you don't understand it but when you're dealing with intellect and and feel and and and touch and feel it's total two different things and every goes a step further he says he could possibly add and the parable of intellect and feel and physically feeling something since both of them so to speak are created by hasm they're both limited there is a connection intellect is finite and feeling is finite however in the parable know you can't say about hasem that you can't you you can't comprehend it obviously it's much deeper because we're find hasm is infinite so therefore in order to bring in the essence of the infinite light you can't use a statue because means a statue I just don't comprehend it but there's some kind of connection you don't comprehend but when it comes to the essence of theem you can't say you don't comprehend it so how do you bring in the essence of the INF that's because it's the will and the command of hem where does that apply to that that how do we bring in that component where it's basically the will of hem not stuff that's logic that comes through Beyond logic when a person does an adus one of the like pabas Etc in other words that all the mitv and even the Mitzvah also have a in in it because by doing a Mitzvah again you have a certain mitzah are ex exclusively AOS but even M like we learned before there is an AIS component to it by doing though any Mitzvah you draw in the conceal part of the infinite part of hem which is even higher than and how do we see that because just like for example what's an AIS anus is like someone saying witness so when do you say witness if something's in front of you do you have to to create testimony that's there it's there you don't have to create testimony something that's revealed you don't have what what are you saying testimony it's right there and even something that's going to be revealed you don't need a testimony because it's going to be revealed so the same thing apply spiritually that so the light that fills the world that means it's it's it's revealed we comprehend it you you don't need testimony which is hiir and coming into the world eventually it's going to be revealed because when we we meditate on the fact that the light comes into the world which is only array so we understand there something which is even higher and that that comes from but what is that's connected to we a part that we don't see and we don't it's not going to be revealed and that's the adus is connected to the essence of the infinite partem which is even higher than which is totally concealed that's why you need a that's why you need a testimony and that's why all the MIT have a component of Adas because through doing again certain MIT were just totally aidus and all the MIT would have an AIS component into it we bring down the reveal the essence of the infinite light of hem Hebrew which is even higher than the idea of now to go now a step deeper says into explaining the idea of adus the power of adus over a statue more more specifically in other words even though when it comes to a statue something which is irrational what are you drawing down you're drawing down the will of hem because it's not logic it's a will which is above logic so what does it mean it was saying that ad is even deeper and stronger than a stand a base when when he explains inic discourse that comes from the idea of something which is carved in and from the from the continuation way he explains in the M about what a is he say there two components to a there's two components that a a statue has on one hand let's look at carving out on high know like gives the example what's the difference between when you carve something out let's give a piece of wood or a piece of paper and you carve something out versus you write something on it so in other words when you um when you carve something out you're not adding say you carve something on a piece of paper you're not adding on the paper or you're carving something out from on a piece of wood you're not carving out you're not you're not adding anything to it you're taking from what exists so so he explains in the discourse that is the level of the highest in other words what does that mean this that as we know is Mak is like the letters of that you carve out that it's not something an addition to to it but it's actually revealing what it is in other words the revelation of which you're revealing a finite thing and not the essence so that's that's something on top on top on top of the item on the other hand the revelation of the since it's infinite it's part of the thing itself and it's not an additional thing so in other words the first component of is when you carve something out versus you're writing when you're writing on top of it you're carving out it's from it just like for example the light that comes in the world this is the world and the light that's on top of it is part of the world just like CER is part of it that's one component second component in carving out that K comes from from to to carve out in other words that by doing the carving out you what you carve something out of a piece of wood or a piece of a piece paper what are you doing you're creating an empty an empty space and like the med says when um if not for my bond of day and night the the the the carving Out of Heaven of Earth I wouldn't I I wouldn't have placed in other words the fact that I I I made a bond the the the Heaven and the Earth with the world and he explains what does that mean that I carved out the Heaven and Earth that creating the the acceptance the b in the world by bringing down the idea of um um a higher level now so when you go ahead and you create so two things saying one hand you're you're you're you're you're you're you're it's not something an addition but on the other hand it's creating an empty space and that creates the real Bond but when you come to carving out what happens is there you create a change cuz the fact is before you had a plain piece of wood or a plain piece of paper and now it's a change it's not the same as before or like for example you carve out in in whether it's a piece of wood a a piece of stone a piece of paper beforehand it was simple and now all of a sudden you there's empty space and you even see letters and especially given an example if you take a a stone that was shining when you go ahead and you carve out there's a change in the in in the level of the of The Shining part because the fact is the part you took out doesn't shine anymore it's not deer the part was taken out doesn't Shine Anymore also besides the fact that change that takes place in the stone by carving and as why because the carving has do with the place which is now empty there's something which is missing so the actually The Carving out is actually the opposite of the stone not only is it missing where it's actually the opposite the stone was Stone now you have an emptiness say these two ideas also apply in the parable of water or sa it why because when there's a downgrade of the light AOS didn't start off a it was even higher when it came that got downgrade now it's a so you have the same change just like you have a change in a stone that was carved out that a it's not any more smooth and from that space it doesn't give off light like before and through that you have now room that you can create the world that comes from and as we know the the existence of the world which world comes from concealment is the opposite of of of revelation of light just like through carving out to something missing so in other words what do we see when it comes to a hooka a statue its spiritual significance yes what happens is creating an empty space and actually something's missing and the same applies to a in order for a to become a it had to it had to go down a level and there's something LIF this thing it's not as powerful as before the same thing is when it comes to statues of a Mitzvah this that something is called a statue means you carved it out there two components in it in other words what does that mean what does it mean when hasem says it's a statue and like kazal I'm giving you a statue I'm making a decree and you can't ask any questions means there two components over here and know one is the will of Hashem as a statue it's not the way it's it's in a source it actually came down to a level we we we where so to speak that intellect doesn't comprehend it you know let comprehend it just like the change that took place in a stone that when you cut something out when you cut something out out it's not there the same thing I want to understand and I can't it's not de that's one component and B that the intellect that the will so to speak it knocks it out it's up to the point that the UNC comprehension is opposite of the will and that that's what you have to say I don't understand it even though know you can ask questions because there is room to ask questions so you see that as great and as powerful as H is and it's huge it's coming from our savior but there's still a component with there something lacking so based on this will now will understand the real power of Aid's testimony in comparison to to statute why is that because the when it comes to a like we just learned the will of the Mitzvah is so to speak in a downgraded level where it comes to a point where intellect says I don't understand it when it comes to on the other hand Aid is a testimony it's the will of a Mitzvah the way it's the way it's in hem and it didn't come to a place where had to get exed out and diminished and so on and so forth so you see from here when you understand the the the way cook works you realize how much more powerful is just like on high the difference between AD which basically we said in its source it coming straight from the will of hm and the essence of hem and already where it gets downgraded and is even lower in other words that when it comes to which is has to do with a light which is connected to the world however when it comes to MB the rules it's has connected to the light which comes into the world which is called when we're dealing with the which is dealing with the light which is above the world and when you're dealing with a us to testimony that you're dealing that's connected to the essence of the infinite part of hem in Hebrew it's called which has no connection to the world and the same thing now applies also in our spiritual service of hem because when it comes to that's through our intellect but the difference is when it comes to the meditation is and the reason the mits we understand we do like we do this for this reason for that reason Etc and also the meditation that we have in it and even when it comes to the Mitzvah we have some kind of meditation however the reasons for the Mitzvah is that's to we can't comprehend it and when it comes to the meditation of what does that mean that all the even theah we know it's the will of what type of will above logic and above the the reasons of our compreh comprehension so that's in terms of that means this is some kind of connection whether we understand we don't understand connected to us however when it comes to Aid it's already it's it's it's connected to the person himself like the verse says you the essence are are my testimony what does that mean what does it mean atam you you yourself are my testimony what is testimony why is that how come we get a testimony because since every single Jewish person we all have a go Godly soul and our soul is a part of God and what is the source of our soul and the essence of hem and even higher than the source of T MIT so therefore the essence of the Jewish person is testimony for the essence of Hashem how does they get re revealed that gets revealed through the part of the MIT which are which are testimony and therefore there you can say that the main component of mitz is which Mitzvah the cific ad Mitzvah and the ad component of every Mitzvah which means drawing in the essence of the infinite part of hm now when it comes to on the other hand which are statues and those come components in every Mitzvah which is basically drawing in the light of the and the light of why is that because the ultimate intent of bringing down which comes through the MIT the goal is not should come down come down get revealed and since the essence is can't you can't reveal the essence to different the way you reveal the essence which comes down through that comes through and which is through the brought them in a revealed way so is playing so beautifully and powerfully he's saying like as follows the ultimate goal is to connect to atos and how do you connect to atmosph the essence of through Adis every mitah has the Adis component but when you connect that's amazing the goal is to reveal it so how do you reveal it so you reveal it through through the part of the and you reveal part of theah now see So based on this now we see beautifully that the order of the MIT goes connecting to the essence of part of then and because in the beginning you start with you bring in the atmos the essence of now you want to reveal it so you reveal it through which comes through the statue of the Mitzvah and then you want it to be internalized you bring it through which comes in through the so basically said you can say that this is what what what what he says in the beginning of discourse that the the wise son asks and then what what's his question since ultimately all the Mitzvah what are all the Mitzvah it's commands from Hashem it's all about's giving connecting to the of so why are we dividing it up and so this is also based on the explanation like we explained the discourse that the wise son is asking is how do we draw down godliness through doing a Mitzvah after M because the main thing is action what we just learned wow we're bringing in essence of hem that's amazing powerful spiritual stuff but what does it do with the Practical physical Mitzvah in other words this by doing a physical Mitzvah we bring down godliness obviously we know that because that's the will of hasem but what he's asking is how that how through the physical part of drawing godliness in other words revealing godliness seemingly is a spiritual thing you're connecting to the essence of hasem or what does that to do with eating a what to do with with putting on physical filling and that's why he says he doesn't say what are the Mitzvah in other words because this that through Mitzvah you bring down godliness yes because a Mitzvah is the will of hem it's the will of hem it's the command of hem but this that we're dividing up mitz into different categories this is an and this is a and this is a now you talking about the Revelation part cuz we know that in when it comes to you're bringing coming down a concealed way you get connect the essence of it's concealed and you bring in a revealed way but it's and it's an internal way so the why son is asking what's the whole idea of that God commanded command you to do in other words the the Commandments that God commanded us to do after m is physical which means drawing on godliness so if that's the case what what's the connection is all about it's all about revealed stuff so what do we answer what do we answer the wi son we were slaves to par in Egypt and God took us out of Egypt and we came to Mountain Toyo and in M Toyo which was after the introduction of going into Egypt and coming out of Egypt we receive the power that through physical MIT we can bring down these powerful things in a revealed way now and and also that the the the drawing down should be the mitah should be in a revealed way and that's why hasem commanded us to do all the and it says we should have or forem so what does have to do with it and explain beautifully he says like this is in the same letters of to see and this obviously he's quoting from the from the discour the prev previous rebba that the drawing down through doing a physical Mitzvah that God commanded us it's all about it to be revealed to be seen and it's revealed up until we literally can see it now the main revelation of drawing down through doing a Mitzvah when is that going to happen when are we going to see the effect of doing a physical that's Mia because then we're going to have Vision on the highest level up to the point Euro which is again we said the same letters of seeing we're literally about to see hasem we're going to see the essence of the infinite part ofia comes and that's why it says God commanded us to do the statutes and it only says statutes why does it say because when a person does a Mitzvah only because of logic so what happens then is it stays concealed but in order for it to become revealed is so we do the Mitzvah even the A and we have to do because the command of and that causes the mitz to be revealed now say one second after all this we have to understand who calls the child a a wise son T says he's a wise son so in other words he knows what what get accomplished T he knows that Hashem gave us the power by m that by doing a Mitzvah physical Mitzvah we bring in all the greatest Revelations so what's his question you know we came to M gave us a gift by doing a physical myal we bring light into the world said you can explain this based on what's explained elsewhere that this that in the tah which we received the m to we have the whole history of the seemingly that was only an introduction to us receiving the Torah so seeming the T should have started with m t boom We're a nation today God's giving here it starts why do we have the whole history of the AR to Patriarchs because even now after we receive the T we have to still do the service just like the other did it what does that mean in other words command us every single day the MIT should be like new and more importantly every single day we do Mitzvah should be a brand new Mitzvah it's not only in reference to the to the beauty and and the specialness of learning to and doing but but it's referring to also literally when you're learning T and you're doing the Mitzvah it has to be a brand new learning to right now and a brand new mitzah right now what does that mean brand new because every single day you have to go to the next level so if you learned something yesterday and you don't learn to say a step deeper and you do a MIT you're not doing with an extra level of excitement where the where's it new because we know in Judaism you have to constantly go climb the ladder and not only climb the ladder one WR after the other it has to be infinite infinite climb climbing the ladder up to the point that learning toy and doing Mito that you did before should be like no way in comparison to where you're learning to doing mitah today and that's why because you can't compare to yesterday's learning to yesterday doing MIT it's like Bru whoa that that's old stuff there's new learning tah new learning m a whole different level and that's that's why today even after we receive the TOA we have to do the spiritual work just like the other the Patriarchs did before M to why because m t is every single day every single day hasm is giving us T like it says is giving you the to right now and every single day it's a higher level so therefore every single day because we're getting a brand new T we have to learn to the way the did it which is a preparation for M for this day so saying something very beautiful and profound he say like this once God gave us AA why are we talking about the history of the and explains because you have to have a Brand New Tah so therefore and what was the introduction to receiving the T was the other we the obice did it so every single day we're starting off like the always before then we receive the and then we go to the next level So based on this explains now we can understand the question the wise person asked that God commanded you so to speak after because the learning T and doing mitz of the wise son is every day is brand new he's not learning Torah the old Torah he's learning new Torah so there he's always on a level of before Martin too but since he always wants to get to a new level if you're there how can you get to a new level so he's always saying ah I'm still like by the I want to receive this from new and that's why he says God commanded you and you referring to not us to to to hint to us and remind us that he's still holding on the level of before M ter not in negative way in a positive way I'm holding before M I still need to get to Maro I still need to go to the next level I'm not finished I'm not a finished product I'm a I'm part in the journey I'm a work in progress what the Ben is saying is God gave you to M I'm still a work in progress I'm still like the other I'm still trying to get to M I'm still trying to go to the next level and he gets to the next level and he's back to and he keeps on going back and Reinventing himself and Reb says he'd like to connect this idea with the question that the wise person asks why when does he ask the question he asks the night of PES by the S even though the question of seemingly is referring to all the mitz why why only by and he explains beautifully because what we just say he's always trying to reinvent himself he wants to be like the other he wants to he wants to be in the level that he's getting ready to receive the Torah and we know that pesak that's when the Jewish people are born and that's why the holiday pesak is specifically connected to IDE of Clinic education because when does education start education starts when you're born and that's the question with that's the connection of the question between the why son together with PES because this what he asked what is the why is that because since he's going from one level to the next so he's holding on a level before M and he has no connection to anything just like a child when he's born and he wants to go hey how do I go to the how do I go connect to it cuz if you don't ask what are the that means you're there already if you're there how you going to learn how you reinvent yourself so even though he knows what the is he knows the that was yesterday's knowledge but now he's going back and he's saying what is the I want to reinvent myself I want to be new I want to be a new child and what do we tell this what do we tell this wi son that wants to constantly reinvent himself we tell them yes you were slaves to par in Egypt and God took you out of Egypt with a a strong hand in other words that even somebody that wants to reinvent themselves and they consider themselves in a level of a child as they were just born and those includes two two types of people one someone's literally a child or the second level of someone that's a wise son that he wants to be on that level so he can constantly grow and more than that even on someone that's on a level of that he's still a slave to par in Egypt that means he wasn't born yet Hashem took him out and what does that mean he took him out with a strong hand it means he gave a tremendous Revelation and literally Hashem himself revealed himself and redeemed us which what does that mean when took us out he took us out literally like from exponential levels one level to less from the lowest level we were Slavs in Egypt to the highest level hasem himself revealed himself and never finish off he says same thing happened to us just like when the days we went out of Egypt we saw tremendous Miracles we saw Redemption not just a regular Redemption off the charts from one level to the next literally from the darkness of Exile from the real dark of Exile and especially the generation that we're in of of we're sitting on the heels of msia that the darkness is very very strong we come right away to Revelation where the the honor of is revealed literally the flesh is going to see and what's going to happen is that that the the kingdom will be to and when is that going to happen should happen very very soon very quickly in our days so here's another very very powerful beautiful discourse from the re where we have to remember it's always we have to remember that as great as we are as much as we learned and much as we pray much we do we have to ask ourselves more which means we have to put ourselves back and say how can we reinvent ourselves and come to a whole new level of revelation and uh the fact is when we do that Hashem takes us out and shows us the greatest levels like the finishes off with the ultimate revelation of the coming of mhia let's hope and pray we do have the revelation of coming mhia next class will bees have a great and blessed week sh
