Here's a powerful idea for us to know in
reference to our Pesach holiday that's
in front of us.
And we know that when we start the Hag
Pesach, we discuss the number four. Four
envelops the whole entire Haggadah.
Obviously, we have the four Lashonus of
Geulah Vehotzeisi, Vehitzalti, Vegalti,
Velakahti. We obviously have the four
sons, the Chacham, the Rasha, the Tam,
and the She'eino Yodea' Lishol. We know
that we have the four cups of wine that
we drink during this time period. And we
of course we have the four questions of
the Mah Nishtanah. We have the four
questions of the Mah Nishtanah that we
ask that we ask. In addition, we also
say Arami Oved Avi. When we say Arami
Oved Avi in the thing, there's also four
Pasuk Vayotzieinu, Vayavi'einu,
Venitzcheinu, Veyir'einu. We speak about
the four. But you have to know four, the
idea behind it is yes, it's four corners
of the globe and everything is still
complete encompassing. But the four is
really five. Every one of the examples I
just gave you really has a fifth number
behind it representing the future,
representing the Geulah, the future that
we will have. In the Mah Nishtanah, the
Mishna brings down in Sukkim on Kuf
Zayin that there's really a fifth
question of Mah Nishtanah. And that has
to do with the Korban Pesach that why
now do we eat the Tali as opposed to
Bederech Klal we eat Mevushal and Tali
and now we're eating the Tali.
Also the Arami Oved Avi, there's another
Pasuk Vayavi'einu Lamakom Hazeh. In the
future we're going to be brought to
Mitzrayim. Of course by the four
Lashonus of Geulah, we have a fifth
Lashon which is Veheve'eitem that one
day Bezras Hashem we will have the time
of Mashiach. Of course in the four cups,
everybody knows we've got that fifth cup
which is for the Kos Shel Eliyahu. All
of these things always represent the
fifth. Are there four sons or five? So
there is a important Yesod which is
brought down. It's usually said over
Bishaim the Lubavitcher Rebbe. There's
different Bishaim different
is that there is a fifth son. The Rasha
at least comes to the table, but the
fifth son is the one that doesn't even
know to make it to the table. He doesn't
even know there is something talking
about Pesach. And that's all part of the
fifth words, the fifth all this fifth
that we're saying. Cuz Le'atid Lavoh, in
the future, the number five will be
existent and that we will have a fifth
child there. The one that doesn't even
realize he's Jewish, he doesn't even
know what a Seder is about, he's going
to also Bezras Hashem be coming to the
Seder. So yes, the
the ideas of the Seder has to do with
the Yetzias Mitzrayim, but at the same
time we represent the number five which
encompasses the fact that it also has to
do with Bezras Hashem there will be a
Geulah Le'atid Lavoh. And let me end
with an importance in the number five.
Because the number five is something
that takes the four corners of the world
and encompasses all together to make a
Kli, a vessel to receive all this Shefa
from upstairs is always represented by
the number five or what we call the
letter Hey. The letter Hey. Sarai was
not able to have children. Sarai, the
the wife of Avraham Avinu, she wasn't
able to have children. Avraham was not
able to have children. You know what
happened? Hashem added a Hey to Avraham
and added a Hey to Sarai to become
Sarah. And lo and behold, she had a
beautiful child named Yitzchak because
of the Koach of the Hey. And the truth
is the Midrash says all the all the
mothers because of the power of the Hey,
they were able to have a child. Leah had
many children cuz she already owned a
Hey. Rivka has a Hey at the end of her
name. And as a result of that, she was
not able to have a Hey. Rachel didn't
have a Hey. Rachel doesn't have a Hey in
her name. But that Hey was added it was
added when she gave Bilhah who has two
Heys, one for herself and one for Rachel
also. So she was able to go ahead and
have children as a result of giving over
the Hey. Hey, the idea of the Hey is
always that as well. It's represented as
a Kli. Hey is always the female at the
end, a vessel, one that is able to
receive. As we know, the woman is the
power to be able to receive and build on
something. When she receives it, she's
able she's the Koach of Binah to be able
to build and expand from it. You turn a
Na'ar to a Na'arah. A male Na'ar turns
into a Na'arah. An Ish to an Ishah. When
you add the Hey at the end, it adds to
it the female counterpart which Knesset
Yisrael we are represented as the Hey,
as this Hey is the five which receives
the Shefa, the Ohr that comes from
upstairs, which is what we're doing on
Seder night or what we're doing all of
Pesach for that matter. We're going
ahead and getting the number four which
is really five like we've stated. And by
having the number five, we're able to be
able to receive that much more. It's no
coincidence at the end of your hands and
at the end of your legs, hopefully you
have all your toes and fingers, but
they're five of them because that is the
place where you receive Shefa Netilas
Yadayim. You pick them up to Shamayim,
all five fingers, and you pick them up
open-handed in order to receive the
Shefa. Because the number five is what
represents the power of receiving, of
being able to be Mekabel, to become
that. And that's why we have yes, five
cups, five Mah Nishtanahs. That's why we
have
the five things of of Anitzach by Arami
Oved Avi, the five children that we do.
And through that Zchus, Bezras Hashem
we'll be able to reach the five of being
able to get to the Geulah Bimheira
Veyameinu. Because those are the five
letters. We know there are 22 letters in
the alphabet, but there's a famous five
letters which change when they're put at
the end of a word. They're known as the
Mantzepach, the Mem, Nun, Tzadi, Pay,
and Chaf. There's also Chaf Sofis, an
end Mem, an end Nun, an end Mem. Those
letters which change at the end, those
are put at the end of the word and there
are five of them to represent that in
the end of days, at the Sof Hayamim,
Bezras Hashem Hakadosh Baruch Hu is
going to bring the Mashiach and that is
really the representation of Kesheim
Sheyatz'u B'Nissan, just like we came
out of Nissan, so too Bezras Hashem will
be Nigal in this incredible month.
