Transformation Starts With Receiving. משה קיבל תורה מסיני Kabbalah class by Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

Welcome to our class onus. We're going to be learning a beautiful discourse in the Reb. The name of the discourse is called received the from Sinai. The Reb said this discourse that year was the 26th day of the month of Nissan which was also the Shabbat that blessed the month of the year 42 years ago. So again the discourse is based on the Mishna from ethics of our fathers you know we learn now between andot and some people learn it throughout the summer as well. So the Mishna says received the from Yeshua and he gave it over to Joshua says we know the uh the question that the previous asks onic discourse with the same title Moshael of the yearin B and the question he asked is why does it say Moshael Mosha receive the Turf in Sinai seemingly it should have said that Hashem gave the gave the Torah to Mosheno's to give the Torah. He's the receiver. Hashem is giving. Mosher is receiving. They're both correct. But why are we focusing on the fact that Moshu received it? Isn't it more important that Hashem is the one that gave the Torah to Mosher? Also, he asked another question in the same Mishna. He talks about the way the Torah was received for and then it went on from generation to generation. And that's why he says received the Torah from Sinai and gave it over to Yeshua and then gave it over to the to the elders and know it's referring to the Messiah to giving over and receiving the Torah of the whole um oral law. So therefore since we're dealing with the receiving of the Torah and giving it over seeming this Mishna should have been in the beginning of all the Mishna to set the stage that we receive the Mishn the Torah the the written law and the oral law from Hashem. And why do we put it in the section which is called nikin j damages and not only that but in even in the section of damages it's at the end and as we know um it's the end which which an introduction to which specific track date the track of and we know that the whole of is talking about um behaviors and good behaviors why is it specifically placed here so three parts to the question. A why isn't the beginning of the Mishna? Why specifically and attractive ziken damages? And then also why is it the opening of the laws of of of proper behavior and he explains in the discourse in in the name of the commentation of the Mishna that exactly that's the point that specifically in this trackctate the why people establish this Mishna of to teach us that all these mid all those the are attributes and all the lessons of this track the they We didn't make it up on our own. It wasn't, you know, good ideas, self-help books, you know, advice, etc. Like we know there's a lot of advice that you receive from your parents and your teachers, etc. But even these simple advice of how to behave and how to be a better human being that all came from Sina. That's what it says simply in the Mishna. Now we know that what Kazal tell us that Moshraenu was the first redeemer and he's going to be the last redeemer as well with the coming of Msiach. So based on this you can connect idea of mob the first redeemer receiving the Tor from Sinai and Mush being the first redeemer with the revelation of the secrets of the Torah that's going to take place in the future through Messiah. So to understand this, do you ever like to give an introduction that in reference to the Torah of the future of Msiah comes, what does it say? A new Torah is going to come out from Hashem. And not only that, we are told that the the the Torah that we have now in this world is I'll say the word in Hebrew, I'll translate heavily. It's nothing compared to the Torah of Mashiach in the future. And like it also says in the medishelisa in other words besides the fact that we know that the of that we receive from the to that we have now it's everlasting it is from hashem it's everlasting and we know that it says also the expression is that the giving happened once it's not happening again so besides the that we're also going to have a new Torah and like the like the verse says in the prophets that there's going to be tremendous from one level to next level of depth and understanding inra and the med explains says that what does it mean it's going to be even greater it's going to be even greater than Abraham and it's even going to be greater than moenu and in another place it says that it's going to be a prophet that's going to be close to moenu in other words what does that mean practically that the revelation of which is going to be in the future Mashiach comes is going to be even higher Now it's not it's not a wonder because the fact there's a there's a powerful teaching in the in reference to Rabaka that God shows Moherenua teaching Torah and Mo was sitting in the audience where was the teacher and he was listening and where was he sitting he wasn't in the first row he wasn't in the second the third he was sitting in the eighth row where he was sitting and mo felt had he suen the one to receive the turf from Hashem is sitting listening to in the eighth row up to the point that what happened was someone asked how do you know this and says it's a it's a law that we know from and then calmed down he felt good because even though he's sitting and listening in the eighth row but he saw the knows it knows everything and he's still connected to Hashem through and like it's explained elsewhere the explanation explanation as follows. Even though we know that there's a concept, everything that a person could sit and study and come up with with new revolutionary ideas in the everything was already given to us by through Moshe at Mount S. And what does that mean that so what does it mean that it's new? Because Mer received the general ideas in Hebrew it's called the clum the general ideas and the general of the general ideas and from there from those general points the rabbis and the scholars were able to every single generation through the 13 attributes they able to learn things out or there's another opinion of 32 attributes they able they're able to go in depth into the details and the same thing also in reference to the Torah that we're going to receive when Mashiach comes and like it's we quoted the verse before it says the yield of the yard room is going to we're going to go very very deep and very very high. What does that mean? that the details are going to be new and more than that that it's going to be at the level where it's almost like a brand new Tory and like the tell us in track that it says good should come who's who's the good one coming the receive he's going to receive good what is that referring to make from so which is good is going to receive the which is good from Hashem which is good and it's explained in many many places there were quotes of Sharamuna and others etc. Even though he says who's the good that they're receiving that they're receiving from Hashem, but it's also referring to the revelation that's going to be in the future which we're going to receive the from from from the Messiah. And that's that doesn't mean the good is going to come and receive good because as we know is unspiritually which is the internal part of bino and he'll see from pmus which is the internal part of kesser and what is he going to receive? He's going to receive the revelation which is going to come through msiach. Now says one second we have to understand what does that mean that in the future we're going to have this beautiful revelation of new Torah. What do we need to Torah for? We have a beautiful Torah. We have the prophets. We have the writings. We have the Mishna, the Talma, the the all the commentaries. What do we what's this idea of new Torah? He like to explain this based on what's explained in aidic discourse of the year which was said and that year with the same setup as the when the rebic discourse and he explains over there what's the whole idea of is create is a a middleman between hashem and the Jewish people and between the infinite part where like it's called inab and the worlds. So you have the Jewish people, you have Hashem. What creates the connection the Tory? What creates the connection between the worlds and the infinite? The Tyra. And that's why it says the verse says that you have the light which is like like a a clothing a garment and it's referring to because basically is the inter intermediary. And that's that's why in the future we're going to have the revelation of a new Tory. What does that mean? Because just like in the future there's the world is going to be upgraded. Now it says there's going to be a new heaven and a new earth and the same thing also there's going to be the Jewish people are going to be elevated and that and and and like it's explained elsewhere the on the verse of government it's going to be very high. It means we're going to reach a level higher higher than the the first man. And why? Because is the letters of Adam and other means it's even higher because it's going to be a different way the letters are going to set up. Adam is al the same letters if you play with it. It's which refers to off the charts. And so the same thing also because the world's going to be elevated and the people are going to be elevated. basically if you need to have an elevation in the Torah because that's the one that creates that the one that creates the union between the infinite part of Hashem and um and the Jewish people. Okay, but there is one second. We still have to understand because the fact is this that we're going to go ahead and reveal this new Tory so we can have a new connection between the the world that's going to change and the people that's going to change etc. How are we receiving it? We're seeing it through the Messiah because the Messiah is going to reveal to us. So what comes out from here? That Msiah is also in a higher level. So what does that mean? That Msiah is on a higher level. She ever explains and he says as follows. Besides the fact that the Tory is an intermediary between Hashem and the Jewish people like it says clearly the Jewish people and the Tory and it's all one. We're one connected one with the other. In other words, the the bond of the Jewish people and Hashem comes through the Tory. So that's on one level that we're connected through the Torah. But the fact is in the Jewish people, we have another higher level as well where we're we're even higher than the Tory and a certain way higher than Hashem where they they're unified as one. And like it's brought down in many many commentaries that the thought of the Jewish people came before everything even before the Tory. How do we know that? Because in the Torah it says command the Jewish people, speak to the Jewish people. So obviously the Jewish people existed on some level before the Tory. And that applies in all levels of the Torah. And even on the highest level of the Torah when we say that Tyra and Hashem is one. Even when we say Tyra and Hashem is one. The Tyra is in the highest level. It's one with Hashem. The Jewish people are higher than that level of Tyra because it says again command the Jewish people. Speak to the Jewish people. So you see the Jewish people are higher than the Tory and as we know that the Jewish people are called the sons of Hashem and not only that they're like a a son a child that even before he g he he he was given birth because our source is connected and I'll say it in Hebrew and not literally in the essence of Hashem and because this deep connection we have with Hashem which is even higher in Tyra we have the power to make an impact in the Torah. We can learn Torah. We can come up with revolutionary ideas because a part of us which is sourced higher than Torah and therefore the revelation of Tory the new version of Tory in the future is going to come specifically who through the Messiah which because the Messiah is part of the Jewish people what does it mean he's part of the Jewish people. said we know that every person has an there's five levels of the the highest part that is that that is that that is that is the is the general level of that soul is mashiach and not only that it's even higher than the level of because we know that even in the global it's only from one of the five names that the so soul is called but the essence of the soul is even higher than that and the fact is the the Messiah is connected to the essence of the soul which is higher than the names of the soul and this revelation the Jewish people when is that going to be in the future Mashiach comes and from here it's going to come into the into the level of the new terra that's going to come out now since this idea in other words this power of the Jewish people that's going to be revealed when in the future Mashiach comes it's going to be come into um the the Jewish people the way they're a soul within a body so even though it's going to be revealed is the highest level of soul which is high in any level of a soul but it's going to get revealed into the the soul and the body and the author explains in other discourses that the the the uh Jewish ruling of Allah is that the main and complete reward of all the revelations in the future is going to be specifically when the souls within the body and the same thing also what's going to get drawn down is the new Tory down here in this physical world. Now we know the famous teaching the alter says in that all the revelations on the future is dependent and our activity our actions and our work in galot we create the future and generally speaking in the 6,000 years the world exists and the main work that we have to do is in Hebrew it's called trans working with the sparks of what kind of sparks of the sparks of toyu that fell in initially when Hashem created the world when the when the vessel shattered and that's what our main work is to elevate those sparks. Now where was the breakage and that no no sparks the breakage was specifically in the seven emotions of tou the world of tou in the world of tick to is much higher in the seven emotions of tou and therefore what's our main work is to transform the seven emotions which that's why we have to conquer the seven nations and like explained at at length in another place that's the main work that we have to elevate those sparks in the seven nations of the world. Now where do we have the power to transform transform those sparks? So that's when we draw into the essence of our soul the and that's why it says in the verse um that that's why the explain on the verse that says the spirit of God is hovering over the water. What is what's what's that spirit? So it says that's the spirit of of the Messiah. Why? Because the spirit of Messiah was revealed when God created the world and that gives us the power to do our spiritual work that we have to do. However, over there it says that the spirit was on the face of the water which means higher than the water and it was concealed. But the revelation happens through and that's why it says received the because Mosher as we said is the first redeemer and mo is going to be the last redeemer and he received the from Sinai and he brought it down into the world and that's why it says received the say Hashem gave it to him. Hashem gave it to him and he received it but the focus received it. Why? Because the main idea is the receiving through the receiver not focusing in the giver because giver gives a gift. The question how did we receive it and what does that mean it you received it and you accept it and you internalize in the on a complete level and this by receiving it this gives us the power to do all transformation in the vessels of toyu and that's why they established this Mishna as an introduction to the tractate of of which is an attractate of um of nikin which is in in the section of of nik of jam damages damages. Why? Because what's the idea of the the section of damages that's all about transforming the sparks of the sparks that fell in the in in in fromu and and specifically it's in the section of attracting a because that's where we work on on our emotions because that's our main work that we need to do and that's why it says Mosher received the Torah from Sinai and then gave it over to Joshua and he gave it over to the elders because we talk about the way it goes flows a terra flows from one generation to the next because but everything was given from Sinai because when we know that we received it from Sinai we have the power to go ahead and transform the world and especially when you fulfill what it says what the the instructed us of the Talm to establish multiple students and from there we will come to what it says in the beginning of the chapter and the in the completion of the of of the of the previous chapter where it says that on three things the world stands stands if completion of this chapter where it says three things the world stands and the three thing the world the world will will survive up to the point we'll have the level of peace which is the peace of everything and as we and and the peace itself will be complete the sha will be complete and when is that going to happen when we going to have the ultimate peace that's going in the future Mashiah comes like explained elsewhere else elsewhere at length and when is that going to happen with the coming of Mashiach the righteous messiah and should happen viau So here we have a beautiful beautiful let's hope like says we'll have the real the real peace and we'll have the coming of Mashiach the next class will be your have a great and blessed week shu
