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

Welcome to our weekly Torah lesson this week we're learning par the question of the week is what is the key to Peace So in this week's Torah portion we learn about y taking care of the Jewish people so we as we've been learning the last couple of weeks from the Z so the Z says as follows that is righteousness lasts forever which is a quote from the from Psalms and the Z says well who's referring to it's referring to is referring to the Jewish people the begin because of their their righteousness and their charity charity it it establishes in the in the in the which will soon explain what that means that's the Z says so the Reb's father explains and he says as follows that what is the zoor saying cabalistic ideas but he says like this it's very simple that when you the sphere of which is called schim and when feeds into into the world then we will have the world will will be established and he brings a verse where it says so sh is connected to the sphere of is is the earth which is Mal so in other words that has to give into Mal So based this father explains that when is and gives life and sustenance in then you have the world that could be that can be alive and last but if God forbid you doesn't do its job and doesn't give and doesn't bring life and sustance into the world that's when you have all the all all quarreling and all all fighting and all issues cuz you really need that your so should give you have to you have to give and you have to do and he explains and he brings two different verses um the reason why zor says so he brings two different verses from the Torah where it says shom that the action of Charity should be peace and then he brings another verse where it says that the work of Charity will will create peace and happiness forever that's in the Reb's father the Reb explains what's these two different verses theb says like this the first verse where the first verse where where it says and it's referring to what the idea of which the first piece in the Z referring to the the the sphere of that is the avoid we give charity when it's you know we're having a difficult doing it and we just take away the concealment the concealment that's not allowing us and we give charity that means the N the natural tendency to give charity and even if we have have certain things we have to come overcome we still give the charity that's the first level the next level is and we go against our nature when we don't want to give and we have issues giving and we transform ourselves to do more than we're doing that's what the next level of Charity so in other words both you need both components because ultimately you want to bring peace into the world so the answer the question what is the key to peace the key to peace is to become a giver giving parts that you're willing to give and even Parts you're not willing to give and when you become a giver you'll bring peace into the world like the says the world established by the the the easier part of giving and then also be when it's hard for you to go ahead and give and you give you create real peace in the world and the world is a peaceful place for each and every one of us thanks so much for joining us for our weekly Tor lesson this week's Torah lesson is dedicated to memory of May the souls be elevated by Torah was studying in the memory for more information please see our website kabat sf.org have a great and blessed week shabua to
