The Raven Doesn’t Do It

The Raven Doesn’t Do It

He’s slated for a different mission

About 1500 years later

Makes sense, right?

Your mission

If you choose to accept it

Is to fly around tonight

Asking for a satisfactory answer

Torah is meant to be understood

Especially Rashi on the parsha

Misunderstanding

Is the mabul itself

Shabbos Shalom

Why Eat On Shabbos Kodesh?

Why Eat On Shabbos Kodesh?

“ודע שעיקר כבוד שבת היא האכילה”

Keep ulterior motives to a minimum

Hashem wants us to integrate eternity

Infinitize our human condition

The נפש יתירה of Shabbos comes in

When we say באי כלה three times

באי כלה=באכילה

Some say it only twice

They might also eat bread at only two שבת meals

And possibly make light of daily maariv responsibilities

Third meal and maariv correspond to Yaakov Avinu

“ובכן תן כבוד לעמך” does too

We honor Hashem by going the extra mile

“והקדישו את קדוש יעקב”

ס“א refers to absolute constriction

א”ס refers to אין סוף

“היום“ is repeated three times in one posuk

Requiring three Shabbos meals

יעק“ב

שבת בראשית שלום

Tonight In Your Sukkas Shalom

Tonight In Your Sukkas Shalom

You might be inspired to invite the Ushpizin Kadishin

Why not, right?

Well, if you invite them, they all come

Each meal you invite them to

And if you’re hosting people in need

They bless you with all they’ve got

If it’s just friends and family

Nobody in need

The Ushpizin rain down curses

Yes, curses

If you’re the baal habayis

And you want Ushpizin benefits

You’ve got two options:

1-Invite at least one needy person each time

2-Sponsor a meal for the needy with your local tzedaka each time

Otherwise

Don’t invite the Ushpizin

חג שמח

One Who Experiences Shechina Revelation

One Who Experiences Shechina Revelation

Must remove his shoes

That’s us on Yom Kippur

Like Moshe Rabenu at the burning bush and Har Sinai

Like all who’d enter the Beis Hamikdash

Shabbos is holier than Yom Kippur

Therefore, instead of Shabbos shoes

We should have none

The Zohar says one day

We’ll wear shoes on Yom Kippur

The way we do on Purim

That’s what we we have

To look forward to

Kedushas Purim

Is less than kedushas Rosh Chodesh

Barely kadosh at all

The Nazis ordered Jews to remove their shoes

Before they died על קידוש השם

The climactic revelation of Yom Kippur

נעילה

Implies donning shoes

Which are prohibited

On שבת שבתון

גמר חתימה טובה

Rosh Hashana

Rosh Hashana

Yitzchok Avinu’s day

According to the Zohar

Rabbi Nachman claims Hashem gave it to him as a gift

At the expense of Yitzchok Avinu?

Yitzchok is the merkava of midas ha’din

Rabbi Nachman is ben Simcha

“Yitzchok” means, “he will laugh”

When?

“Nachman” means, “one who is מנחם”

From what?

Every Yom Tov celebrates a miracle

Of our salvation

Rosh Hashana is called Yom Tov

For which miraculous salvation?

Shabbos Shalom

Pay Your Employee Today

Pay Your Employee Today

ביומו תתן שכרו

The Arizal teaches the roshei tevos here are שבת and בשת

Based on this he instructs:

1-Not to daven mincha until the employee was paid

  Even if it means encroaching upon שקיעה

2-One should be מתבייש

  Due to the תוספת קדושה that comes with שבת

3-One should receive that קדושה

  On יום הששי before שקיעה

That’s Torah Vav

Shabbos Shalom

If You’ve Got Torah Vav

If You’ve Got Torah Vav

You’re on your way to The Lost Princess

If you don’t

Your Rosh Hashana is lost

Rabbi Nachman said Rosh Hashana is his day

Including the journey to get there

Israeli outdoorsmen travel for days and weeks

To nowhere

And call it ״שביל ישראל״

בראשית = א׳ בתשרי

That’s Rosh Hashana

בראשית = בשביל ישראל שנקראים ראשית

One person in the kingdom

משנה למלך

Searches his life away

For his King’s lost daughter

What’s in it for him?

Elul Ahoy!

Elul Ahoy!

Here’s how to find your Lost Princess:

1-Relationships improvement

2-Twice daily shofar

3-Invest in mincha

4-Likutei Moharan Torah Vav (b’iyun and bekiyus)

5-Tzedaka to Kosel collectors

6-Arrange for not the same old Rosh Hashana

7-Bite your tongue

8-Sleep less

9-Avodas mezuza

10-Learn Tehilim 27 like a mentch

The Lost Princess

So Ya Thought Ya Knew How To Bentch

So Ya Thought Ya Knew How To Bentch

Let’s check in with the Arizal!

1-If you’re three men, definitely bentch on a כוס

2-The one honored with the כוס rreceives it from another into both hands at chest level, then retracts his left hand

3-He rests his eyes on the wine the entire bentching

4- The others rest their left on their heart, right hand on left, eyes closed, כוונה גמורה

5-That includes simcha and generosity toward the shechina benefiting from the bentching

6-Every man bentching wears the special head covering he walks to davening with

7-Kavanos are described clearly in your מתוק מדבש

שבת שלום ומבורך

Are Tu B’Av And Shabbos Nachamu Related?

Are Tu B’Av And Shabbos Nachamu Related?

Ask Yitzchok Avinu

He ordained Zman Mincha

יצחק = נחמו נחמו

וינחם יצחק אחרי אמו = בירושלם

That’s his marriage

Fifteen letters

Five things happened on Tu B’Av

Rectifying the fives of בין המצרים

נחמו נחמו עמי יאמר אלהיכם

Five words

Twenty one letters

Yitzchok met Rivka in a field

Which becomes the Beis Hamikdash

ותשקט הארץ ארבעים שנה

תרגום: ושדוכת ארעא
