So good day. It's the second of of the
second of the nine days. And rather than
being being morbid and depressed, when
we learn Tyra, you become happy and you
feel good because Tyra has so much
beauty in it, so much knowledge, so much
direction, so much positivity.
So we are on page 220 in the mel in the
third
in which he explains different mitzvah
the mystical meaning of different
mitzvah. So it's not the talmudic
literal meaning and even meaning it's
the mystical explanation of various
mitzvah and it's a it's an entire book.
Uh it doesn't cover every mitzvah but it
covers many.
And here we're talking about the idea of
appointing a king where Hashem says God
says in the tra when you get to the land
of Israel
you you are to have a king min and it's
called mini appointing mel king. So
hence the name the the title of the
mimer is called minu mitzvah minu
and the asked several questions in the
beginning
and one of the questions was
what's this idea of appointing a king
in particular when hashem says to
hamelik so to to sorry
Samuel the prophet
he says that the king that the Jews
chose which was melik king Saul he's not
be fit and adequate and as we explained
yesterday he was on a very lofty level
and he really wasn't interested or
wasn't able to relate to every
individual and who are you to appoint
king David once he mentions that he says
well king David king David wasn't
supposed to
He's he's called Barnafla,
son of fallen. He he was to be born
fallen meaning dead. He wasn't supposed
to be born. Came along other marisham
first man Adam who with his prophetic
vision and being the first human being
and he was spir given the spirit of God
he saw everyone and he saw that this
David Amel who's supposed to be the king
doesn't have any years. So he gifted him
70 of his of his years. So instead of
living a thousand years, he only lived
970. Not bad, right?
We get
120 healthy years. Anyway,
so he gives him 70 years. So you would
think that's adequate. Well, the zores,
the holy zor says three other
individuals gifted him more years.
Abraham, Yakov, and Yseph. Abraham gave
him five. Yakob gave him 28 and Yseph
gave him 47. Total totaling 70 years.
Another 70 years. Not a substitute.
Another 70 years. So the sedic asked if
so he should live he should have lived
David 140. 70 plus 70. 70 of the and 70
from the other three. But we we know
that he only lived 70 years. That's why
he by the way
sometimes you'll see saying
If I live 70 years,
80 years, but the 70 years they say it
alludes to himself that he knew that he
had 70 years.
So, so that's and if and if for some
reason he's not supposed to live 140
just 70, then why why aren't the 70
years of Adam that that Adam gave him
adequate? That was the question. To
understand this we have to understand
what is and he spent a long time and we
spent many classes explaining the virtue
of now
you say sorry Rob that he knew he had 70
years
>> okay I I I was waiting for you to catch
me on that word
I was thinking as I said it let's see if
anyone here will stop me
>> I I I you know I don't know the answer
to that offhand clearly. So I'm not
going to say anything. Shabas I hope to
ask a few people. Um the fact is that he
got 70 years. The question is whether he
knew right that's the question. So Mosha
Meyers first of first of all
>> that the angel of death was coming for
him. It seemed at the end
>> answer is no.
>> Right. Right. Misha, I'm I'm very proud
of you because that means you're paying
attention and that's the main I'm I'm
not saying this to to hoot your horn to
toot your horn. It's just that when you
learn, you got to listen and listen and
you picked up on the word and you picked
up on the word
knew. I said he knew he had 70 years.
So, as we say in your country, we say
and I'm really proud of you. Okay.
>> Thank you.
>> You're welcome. So let's so now now so
so so now once the has explained what
David is all about spiritually
mystically and what Shame is about he
goes now to the to the winner OF ALL
WINNERS TO Messiah
and why does he go to Msiach the next
chapter three is about Messiah
because Messiah the Rambam says the
first qualification of Msiah is meliach.
Those Lebabs that TALK ABOUT THE
MELIACH, THAT PART THEY got right
ABOUT WHO IS THE MELAMIACH, THAT'S
QUESTIONABLE. But the the part that he's
called the king messiah
absolutely
Mark the Rambam says that before be
before before Mashiach being a teacher
and other qualifications the first
quality of the Mashiach is he's a king.
So now the satic will look at this
concept of king as it applies to the
ultimate king of the Jewish people which
comes from the Davididic dynasty which
comes from David
who's his ancestor the first
not the first the second but the the the
king that established kingship for the
Jewish people
is now kind of expressed in something
greater. is someone greater called Mr.
Mashiach. We don't call him Mr.
Mashiach. We call him Melia. So, let's
go. Page 220 ice.
What is this idea that the Msiah will be
will also be a mel
based on what we explained in chapter
one of this discourse.
But this is difficult to understand
the at the time when Mashiach will come
should which should be in our days you
all Jewish people will be scholars
as it says in the verse in the prophets.
What will be the atmosphere and
environment
during the Msiah time? It says that the
presence of God, sorry, the knowledge of
God will fill the earth. That's from
Yesha in Isaiah.
It also says in
one person won't have to teach the other
one,
right? Why not? Because we'll all know
everything. The the the knowledge of God
will be rampant just like you breathe.
Do I have to ask you is how how should I
breathe? Yeah, you could, you know, when
you go to a doctor, he checks your
breathing, you exhale, inhale, right?
But we breathe. The question is, you're
breathing right, you're breathing wrong,
but you breathe. When Msiah comes, it'll
be
the knowledge of God, not just the
present, the knowledge, the information,
the data
will be accessible. And some argue, you
know, by the way, that this is part of
what's happening today. That's why they
feel it's part of the messianic
experience even today.
Why? Because with the proliferation of
of of technology and what's available
it, you know, THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD IS
ALL OVER. YOU CAN be in Timbuktu.
You can you can live wherever you are as
long as you have access to the internet
and and you could surf the net and and
learn TA and find out and grow. So the
question
let's continue after the parenthesis
why do we need a a king when comes
you need a king right to give direction
how you should behave and act in
accordance with mitzvah but if everyone
will be everyone will be everyone will
be scholarly everyone will be
knowledgeable as it says in this in the
prophets why do you need a
That's the question of number two.
So too, it's difficult regarding the the
the essential commandment in the
to appoint a king amongst the Jews.
What's the question of
there's one for all of us.
All scholars are also included in this
in these commandments.
He's talking about other mitzvah. Why do
you need a king to instruct you how to
do mitzvah
if
the is one and it'll be at a time when
during Mashia's time everyone will know
the tra. So they'll know what to do. So
why do you need a king to instruct you
what to do? That's the the second
question to understand this. He goes he
explains now
the truth is he says the concept of
kingship
is applicable even over scholars.
Although they
comprehend intellectualize
and know Hashem's
and they don't need to be like a slave.
You better do the mitzvah or else. No,
they have an understanding of of of God
and his mitzvah and they want to do it
willingly
explained earlier about the the
difference the the the way a king is a
king over subjects who are not
interested in him like servants and
slaves yet they do what he wants
says the concept of kingship
during Mashia's time and therefore is
called Meliach
the King Messiah IS A VERY DIFFERENT
NOTION in kingship
and therefore
it's not contradictory the fact that
they that will be the knowledge of God
will be rampant and everyone will be
knowledgeable
incl and and that including
and still the greatest will need a
meliach
what Why? He explains further
is Adam is infinite.
We go from strength to strength implying
there's no end. We go higher and higher.
amount of levels
and they go higher and higher. One
in a manner of comprehending
is
you never met someone who could tell you
he knows the entire if he does if he did
he's a liar a charlatan.
Why? Because the more ta you learn, the
more a you realize you don't know. And
even if you know, there's more to know
because ta is infinite.
By the way, is this is explained well
chapter five in Tanya. That chapter is
the chapter in un in in in in explaining
well in understanding this idea that is
bleak vul
that once said out of fabangan that even
after you master and understand a
certain piece of ta the taid still
encompasses you because ta is infinite
so as much AS YOU UNDERSTOOD THERE'S
STILL PARTS OF TA YOU DIDN'T UNDERSTAND
but you say I I got it I know it you
know the limited amount amount of but
since its essential quality is infinite
THAT INFINITY IN HOVERS over you it's
you surrounds you so the says when the
says that is
it surrounds and you surround it it's
not only during the time when you learn
and you invest your mind trying to
figure it out so there's part that
understands a part that doesn't
understand and yet you're involved in it
so there's the concept of the mak at the
time of learning the said
it's even more not JUST DURING THE TIME
OF LEARNING even after you've learned
and after you understand that that you
have it all down pat. So you would think
at that time you have IT WITHIN
YOURSELF. YOU ENCOMPASS the the part
that TA but and that TA DOESN'T
ENCOMPASS YOU AFTER you know it because
you know it already says the but no
since TA is bleak V infinite there's
STILL PART OF THAT THAT TA that you know
there's more cuz it's infinite and there
and and when you absorb the amount of
that you know that part of that you know
at that time even even at that time
there is the as he calls it in in Tanya
chapter 5 the wondrous unity between the
mak and the muk between the the mind and
that what knows and what's not known
because the t is infinite so the the the
alludes to that too
comes in the future
What will we learn MARK WHEN MSIAH
COMES? NOW WE'RE STUDYING TALMUD. NOW
WE'RE STUDYING Jewish law. It says Yonyi
the primary learning during Msiah's time
will be in the pan in the inner
dimension of Tyra. I want you to put up
a big sign in Punovich
with this quote because it's not it's
not that
I got you to smile.
>> Don't take it down.
>> I uh what's it called? IT'S NOT MY IT'S
NOT THAT it's already brought but that
why now we learn the mitzv is the reason
for mitzvah and we learned the gum and
we learned the right
no SAY YOU STUDY
A CERTAIN section in the gum you know
well when mashia comes what are you
GOING TO STUDY ABOUT you're going to
understand how what is it how is it and
and the reality that when you light a
shabas candles a woman LIGHTS A SHABAS
FOR SHABAS THERE'S ACTUALLY LIGHT COMING
into the world into the house now I can
only speak about it I can believe it I
can't see it I don't have it in my
kishkis so
the inner dimension of will be what we
will be studying when msiah comes I know
continuing side
How will we have access to
because Meliach, King Mashiach, he will
teach us the inner dimension of Tyra. He
will reveal to us as a teacher. Now, you
see here, we're referring to him as a
teacher, not only as a king.
Actually, no, we're referring to him as
a king. as a king, not only will he
teach, but he'll he'll open up the
pedagogy of
in other words,
King David
taught us how to be
HOW TO IS RELEVANT TO US. But that's the
Torah, the Talma, THE MASHIACH WILL GO
ONE STEP ABOVE and he will teach us how
IS APPLICABLE TO EVERY SINGLE PERSON
FROM WHERE THEY'RE COMING from that
didn't do. Why? Because that's not the
time for itch.
And that's why it's mel. It's not just
that he's a good rabbi and teacher. A
good rabbi and teacher
cannot access the
secrets. MELIACH
BECAUSE of who he is because his from as
explained in
has access to the secrets and and and
and the teaching of secrets. Let's
continue.
Mashiach will teach us the secrets of
Torah, the inner dimension of to all of
the nation, everyone. Also those things
that are now hidden and concealed, he
will open up for every one of us.
However,
surely
he himself will recognize
Not everything that he the King MASHIACH
HIMSELF UNDERSTANDS can he explain and
reveal to the nation
because they cannot comprehend some
stuff that Mashiach knows of the
names
and it's because of this level that we
call him
Just like his kingship, kingship here
below.
It's only the aspect of subservience
that the nation that the subjects be
subservient to the king.
That means things that are above the
limitation of the mind
because something that can be
comprehended intellectually
in a in a good manner of understanding.
You don't need the command of the king
to tell you to do it
even without his commandment.
the the thing is proper and it's very
good in his eyes. So why do we need a
king? the command of the king who
it's pertaining primarily to something
that is contrary to the rale and
intellect
and it's wanderers from meaning it's
above him doesn't get it doesn't make
sense
nevertheless
due to the command the command and the
decree of the KING
you're forced to do
And the subject
knows his will
to the will of hem to the will of the
king. Sorry
says and why is that? Because we don't
know the heart of the king and his
hidden reason. So if the king makes a
command, we accept it even though we
don't understand it or like it. And we
know that the king knows the inner
meaning and and the purpose and he
understands that therefore he should
make the command now and we should
follow.
So says that the that the king himself
is unknowing his opinion and mind to
what's above his own mind his own. In
other words, tom kumos
tom kos means esoteric reason.
You probably have come across it in
different writings of in various
says Tomos why you why do you do this
and this why should you do Tomos it's a
concealed reason but those words
concealed reason doesn't mean you didn't
in other words it's open if you study it
it's essentially concealed it's like
handed down from rebiere
and that's and someone in the beginning
new maybe other maician and other
maritian said just accept it I had
communication with God I I can't reveal
it or could be I myself don't know but
it resonates within me blah blah yeah so
this Tom says
the king himself
unknows you know he he suspect bends his
mind and understanding TO THE HIGHER TOM
KOS
ABOUT SOMETHING THAT GOD INSTRUCTS HIM
TO DO AND ultimately he commands that to
the people. Further,
the king goes through the following
process. Although it doesn't re it
doesn't resonate, it doesn't make sense
intellectually, logically, it doesn't
follow,
he listens to the the command
and who to him
is talking about the subject, not about
the king. Just as the king suspends his
intellect for the higher call, so too
the individual does the same thing.
I'm going to stop here. It means Monday
and Tuesday. We will have Shir and we'll
finish the rest of the meanwhile
everyone should have a great Shabas.
The Shabasik
tells us using a mushel of a king who
had a son. We made him a beautiful shirt
and he tore the shirt and he says, "Give
me a second shirt, my dear father." And
he says, "Okay, here's a second shirt,
beautiful shirt." And he tears the
second shirt. He comes and he says,
"Give me a third shirt." He says, "I'm
not giving you the shirt. It's here in
the closet."
>> Yes, we are.
>> Please mute yourself. Remute yourself,
Yi, please. He says it's in the closet.
Look at the shirt, but I'm not giving it
to you. This shabus mark the begins with
the vision of Isaiah
means a vision says the holy of
contemporary of the balat of the alterb.
HE SAYS THAT THIS SHABUS EVERY JEW
is shown the base.
We will we actually will see the third
temple
but it's not given to us until we make
it happen. IT'S LIKE THE FATHER SAYS TO
TO THE BOY TO HIS son who's you know
who's already torn two shirts
and HE SAYS PLEASE FATHER GIVE ME A
THIRD SHIRT I WON'T TEAR IT. HE SAYS,
"NO, YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOURSELF NOW."
BUT LOOK, IT'S IN MY CLOSET HERE. OPEN
THE CLOSET AND SEE THAT'S YOUR SHIRT.
WHEN YOU BECOME A MAN, YOU LEARN HOW TO
NOT TO TURN to tear the shirt. So says,
"So too, HASHEM HAS THE BIKDASH WAITING
FOR us
on high
AND IT'S GOING TO come down." And the
reb has a how do you reconcile that and
us building the base of mashia building
it but not for now it's gonna come down
and here we have it but we so
and and but explains in his talks he
spoke almost many many times about this
not every shabas but many times shabas
that this isn't just a nice story and
wishful thinking
if we go through the process shabas and
we take time to think about it.
It's like I was thinking, you know, my
wife's ner and I'm here. You know,
you're a little lonely. And I said to
myself, you know, the lonely feeling
triggered HOW IS lonely
and and we say that in
the glamitations and the kus,
right? It says the the city is sitting
lonely.
You say it every year.
So when when you have a feeling of
loneliness
think okay what IS THE POSITIVE WHY AM I
lonely now why am I feeling lonely to
feel how is lonely
so you talk about the nine days you talk
about his
waking up arousing yourself
this is the time for it. You know, we we
we we we sometimes go into all kinds of
philosophies and ideas and we're
learning the gimmar and we're learning
this and that. Just think about how is
lonely and WHAT AM I AND WHAT AM I DOING
TO make not lonely?
That's that's my feeling. That's my
feeling.
>> What
>> the right thing?
>> But that's right. But what but but
saying is like try to you know
concretize it in in a practical way you
know you know you say
you say it's true but it's like
>> very big
>> it's very BIG AND ALSO WHAT DO I HAVE TO
DO I THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING DO YOU FEEL
the
do you feel the pain FOR
THAT'S WHAT TISHAB'S ABOUT THAT'S WHAT
the three weeks and the nine days is
ABOUT IT'S NOT ABOUT NOT JUST DON'T TAKE
A SHOWER IN THE MORNING, DON'T WASH
YOURSELF WITH SOAP.
Of course, that's true and of course
it's I'm not minimizing it, but I'm
saying IS THERE'S SOMETHING DEEPER
THAT'S SUPPOSED TO DRIVE YOU. WE'VE
BECOME so robotic that THE MECHANICS OF
JUDAISM DRIVES US. So comes a time like
this and what if you go through an
experience everyone goes through an
experience focus on the experience as it
relates to the time period in which you
are in. And now we're in this like you
said, we're in the nine days. It's a
very very tough time. The energy is a is
is is is not great. Not you know so we
have to transform it. And when you feel
the pain of Jerusalem, you feel the
loneliness of Jerusalem
and you call out to Hashem to bring
Mashiach. In reality, not not in you
know bubbises,
but in reality you want to see Mashiach
and YOU WANT ALL FIGHTING TO STOP
FIGHTING THE GASHMIR AND FIGHTING INSIDE
AND FIGHTING OUTSIDE AND jealousy and
and and and greed and everything and and
and stealing and everything that we DO
THAT IS FAR FROM HASHEM. And when you go
through that then a it's it can be a
very cathartic experience really. You
feel like wow I just washed all this
stuff off.
I feel clean without going into A SHOWER
WITHOUT GOING INTO A POOL.
I love you guys. All the best. Chabas
chabas. Mashiach. Now
>> what?
