the
aliyah begins with
discussing the laws of anita
neither laws
is actually one of the most important
laws in terms of marriage of tara
amina torah a woman that is anita during
certain times of the month where she
sees dom she's tame at least seven days
and if she cannot make a have sick
tahara she cannot ascertain
that she's no longer seeing uterine
blood flow so she can detox she can be
made even more than that but we know
that once she's able to make the have
sick tahara and bismarck we have a we
add more days for not for beyond the
scope of this discussion but then once
that is done today we actually count
shivanikiyam not minatora that's not
required as part of the din of nido and
she goes to the mikveh but mikvah we
know tara's mashbach the whole idea of
going to the mikvah is really the one of
the main we feel the main important
parts of the whole idea of what neither
is that's how we learn it that that
creates a vibrancy in the marriage
there's still excitement in the marriage
and uh that there's a time out that
leads going that you can we come back
and renew the the physical parts of the
marriage and it it fascinating that
vaynermecha points out that in the
parsha that we hear in in mitsura the
the saliyah there's no mention of going
to the mikvah for the needle
and he brings down from the onion from
yohudai gone that's a call of homer that
if something that she sits on then that
becomes tame and that becomes pure only
through going to the mikvah to call the
homeless she becomes tohora through
going through mikvah and there's other
different richonne giving different to
roots
how do we see that she needs to go to
the mikvah but there is no mention of
the neither going to the mikvah of
course she has to go to design the yum
yum is not enough you need to have your
man you have to make for why the torah
and not specif why only intimate this
concept of mikvo allude to it but not
actually front and center say that anita
needs to go to the mikveh and i was
thinking like this the per perhaps it is
as follows that most of us when we talk
about tarsus mishpochra the main focus
is we cannot wait for the wife to go to
the mix we focus on going to the mikvah
going to mikvah that shall become taha
tahura and then we can resume the
physical aspects of the marriage and
that generally is how it's taught to all
of us is that this is a uh
renewal of the the the marriage but it
is a the focus is on the going to the
mikvah and and the woman coming to her
again maybe that's not really the
primary focus maybe where the primer
focus is teaching us as the madrid says
we know that the uh the concept of nida
is actually connected to the hate of
adam and java where there was this
tremendous loss man went from being an
eternal being to being a finite being
death descended in the world his
connection to death to sin to death and
anita has that alludes to the idea that
uh that that that there's been a lost
potential an egg has been lost there is
a loss of of of sin connected the way
the kuzuri explains it and but but
primarily is that the the tikkun of of
they did not have restraint they were
given boundaries of this is what has to
be done and they overstepped those
boundaries they ate from the tree that
they weren't allowed to eat from and
maybe the main focus is to focus on the
process of the seven days that we are
restraining ourselves or we are being
held back from what we would like to
partake in and that should be the main
focus not the main focus on going to the
make fun what happens after these days
are over but actually the main focus has
to be the fact that we have to teach
ourselves restraint especially in today
where everything is about
self-gratification and immediate
gratification that we want to have it
immediately and now the t we have to
teach ourselves is that no the person
has to understand there are boundaries a
person must teach themselves restraint
and the torah therefore never mentions
the mikvah directly only mentions the
process that leads to when one needs to
go to the mix
