the sixth aliyah the moment we've been
waiting for the saras hadibros the ten
statements it's not so clear that they
are ten mitzvos they are ten statements
the puzzle begins by introducing to us
how a kurdish borough who came down
kivyakol so to speak he came down to the
mountain say just the top of tenth from
the shrine arrested there and we are
called upon the puzzle success in the
beginning to make sure nobody gets too
close nobody rushes to greet the shrine
out of their enthusiasm and then
vaidabar elohim has called varma'illa
hashem said these ten things
because there are two opinions one
opinion says the first statement of anu
hashem
that is the mitzvah
it's a commandment to be aware to
believe to have the knowledge that there
is a matsui rishon there is a force
there is a god
the other opinion is no it's not a
mitzvah it's simply the baseline
assumption that we need to make when we
think about all the missiles that are
about to be introduced so cause i'll
identify that these can come in
two sections two groups they're actually
interesting uh talmud yerushalmi
midrashim about whether we should group
them as two groups or maybe it should
just be one group of ten but many of us
are familiar that the first group is
being authentic between us and god and
the second group is
but there's also
a chiastic structure which connects them
in imagine like a bracket number one
goes with ten two goes with nine three
goes with eight and further well what is
the connection between number one and
okay and number 10 which is not to covet
don't be jealous
mode
perhaps these two actually share a
common root which is emunah
and muna is an awareness of akadesh
baruch it's a faithfulness it's a
feeling of the presence of akras baruch
in our lives that the rabona shalom is
holding us in his hands
i am your god who took you out of egypt
it doesn't just mean egypt in antiquity
it's from all of the mate sarim all of
the things that hold us in and that's
why before we ever talk to akrish baruch
we always say the brach of go ali israel
we're in your hands now we can have a
conversation but being in the hands of
akris baruch means he's got it it's
taken care of on rosh hashanah they
wrote down and the patek and the best in
shambhala
who said to us this is what's going to
be for the year do your ishtadlis i have
in mind for you this is what's
appropriate for you and you don't have
to worry a person who is jealous of
someone else who thinks that you know i
wish i had what that person had i wish i
had what that person had
it's a sarin in a certain sense in their
emunah in their awareness that
was taking care of every person don't
worry what's makiya for that person
what's appropriate for them they got but
what's magiya for me what's appropriate
for me
i've got in store
he's got it taken care of so low sock
mode really is the expression so to
speak of emunah if a person is happy
with what they have if they understand
that everything comes from
both the beautiful great wonderful gifts
and unfortunately the things that on
which we have to say the barak of daina
emma sakuras
he's got it all squared away it's an
expression it's a way of living with the
first of the asteroids with emunah
