Zohar Parsha Va’eira. Lubavitcher Rebbe & Rebbe’s Father Kabbalist. By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

welcome to this week's Torah lesson this week's Torah portion is par of AA the question of the week is why is Yakov the most respected from the patriar so in this week's Torah portion Torah begins and it says Abram God appeared to Abraham and to Yakov so the zor says that Yakov is the most respected from all the Patriarchs why is that and the zor says very simple if you look in the Torah it says God appeared El Abraham El and when it comes to yob it it says it adds a letter so because it adds letter obviously he's the most respected but nevertheless as always says he doesn't come to so the re's father explains what what what does this mean and he says like this we know in the Patriarchs ABR was on the right side was on left and Y was the center and because he's the center so there he's the balance that's one that's one level deeper he says because it says V means that the Yakov is connected to the highest level but nevertheless even though he's connected to the highest level in the cabalistic terms the's father says that the lower level of understanding and was and that's why Mo was higher than him that's what that's what the re's father explains so re explains what does this mean and he says like this re says we know thatu he was idea of which means he draw godliness down into the world Abram brought godliness into the world was more about prayer he prayed it means he elevated the world to hem Yak represents the idea of what of toyra and toyra is the most powerful and because it's the most powerful that's why yaka is the most respected but nevertheless even though yakob is all about toy and T is the most powerful but nevertheless he doesn't come to M why is that because isob existed before the Torah was given so therefore even though he learned T but it didn't transform the world however when M came the T was able to transform the world and that's why even though yob is the most respected but MO is much deeper because again he transformed the world so they answer the question why is yaka the most respected from all the Patriarchs because yaka represents toyra and toyra has the real power to take us and connect us withes so let's hope and pray we T to continue to do like ab and to do prayer like but more importantly to make sure to learn to because to is the one of the most powerful tools that we have to connect thanks so much for joining us for our weekly Torah lesson this week's Torah lesson is dedicated to memory of May their souls be elevated by tah we studying in the memory for more information please see our website.org have a great and blessed week shabua to
