 We also see in our parsha Kedoshim  that we will inherit the Land. Only if we do what it  says in the Torah
 You shall keep all of My statutes and all of My laws and do them so that you will not be expelled by the land to which I am bringing you there to reside therein.   (Verse 24) And I have said to you [that] you shall inherit their land, and I shall give it to you that you may inherit it, a land flowing with milk and honey, I am YHV”H, your God who separated you from the other peoples.” (Verse 22)

The Torah states that in account of transgressing forbidden sexual relations the Land will vomit out the Israelites:

“You shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them; that the land, where I bring you to dwell in it, vomit you not out.” (20:22)

The inheritance of the Land of Israel, is acquired only through fulfilling what God asks of us in His Torah .May we see this soon With the coming of our righteous Mashiach quickly in our days.

PARSHA MISHPOTIM BS”D

The teachings concerning “Gilgul” (Reincarnation) are are so deep Chym Vital called all the chapters in Shar Gilgulim introductions, Introduction 1 introduction 2 etc,,, There is no pen that will prove sufficient to record all the details of “gilgul”  in a book. Nevertheless, an understanding person will comprehend and make the necessary inferences on his own  Many of the teaching that follow were give by Elijah the Prophet to the Holy Ar”i (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 2 )

Parsha Mishpotim begins “and these are the judgments that you shall set before them”.

R. Shimon informs us that the “judgments” referred to in the above verse referred to the punishments involved in one’s incarnation in this world. Everything is in measure and equality, to pay back to everyone in accordance with their sins. In general its better not to have to come down here, its better “upstairs”.

To begin with  Eve brought death into the world as it says in the Yalkut Shimoni, Bereshith. She was reincarnated as BatYah, the daughter of Pharaoh, thanks to her the world survived because she Moses] from the water (Exodus 2:10). She had the merit of having the name “bat Yah” (daughter of God), like Eve. who could also be called a “Daughter of God” as she had no Human parents. According to the Zohar, Eve also brought about Abel’s death (Tikkun Zohar 69:118b). BatYah, however, saved Mose’s life. We thus see it was the merit of BatYah, the reincarnation of Eve, that Moses who is a reincarnation of Abel who saved the Children of Israel from Egypt and gave them the Torah. Therefore BatYah completely atoned for the sin of Eve.

When Adam and his wife Eve sinned, as well as Cain and Abel, their children, all the soul-sparks became mixed together. Accordingly, sparks of Adam combined with those of Cain and Abel, and sparks of Abel with Adam’s and Cain’s, etc. Therefore, sometimes the Nefesh of a person will be from Cain, but the Ruach comes from Adam. For once they mixed together, they bond. Sparks of Adam often come together with sparks of Cain, the Ruach from Adam and the Nefesh from Cain. It is the same matter with respect to the Neshama with the Ruach and the Nefesh . Cain and Abel were born with a Nefesh of Asiyah , Ruach of Yetzera and Neshama  of Beriyah, as well as the level of Nefesh of Atzilut which was previously Adam’s, their father’s  Cain and Abel were born with a Nefesh of Asiyah , Ruach of Yetzera and Neshama  of Beriyah, as well as the level of Nefesh of Atzilut which was previously Adam’s, their father’s . As is known, every soul has levels called “oar makif”  [surrounding light] and “oar penimi” [internal light]. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 30,32)

Each individual receives the appropriate “gilgul” (incarnation) in accordance to the sins that they have performed. Those who enjoyed sin just a little died an easier death; quickly [and without suffering]. Those who had greatly enjoyed sin and had blemished greatly, this type of person would suffer through days of famine and want, and would live to see his children murdered before his eyes (G-d forbid). As is well known, man includes all the worlds. Even though he may not presently merit all of them. Still, he can achieve all of them through his actions. The Talmud says, “Anyone who is greater than his friend, his evil inclination is accordingly greater.” (Sukka 52b).

The Degel Machaneh Ephraim (The Bal Shemtov’s Grandson) teaches us that at times one person takes another to court, and he knows that he is in the right. However, the case in Torah law judges him guilty rather than innocent. This has happened becouse he is liable to the other person from a previous reincarnation.He who takes money dishonestly will also pay for it in the future in this incarnation or another. Thus there are so many laws of money and damages.

All aspects of all souls were included in Adam. Adam’s body was made up of 248 organs and 365 sinews. Each organ and sinew is a Primary Source of souls. Adam was the father of all. Adam included all souls within himself. Afterward, all were included within the three Patriarchs: Avraham, Yitzhak, and Yaakov. After this, all were included within the twelve sons of Yaakov, who fathered the twelve tribes. After this, all were included within the seventy souls who went down to the land of Egypt with Yaakov. After this the seventy subdivided into 600,000 main Sparks. Each a complete Partzuf, containing 248 organs and 365 sinews. This further subdivided into 600,000 Secondary minor Sparks. There are 613 Sparks in each and every one of the 613 major roots. Each Spark divides into a number of Sparks. There is a Major Spark that divides into a thousand Minor Sparks, and there are those that divide into a hundred, and so on. However, all the 613 Major Sparks, in their entirety, do not divide into more than 600,000 Minor Sparks. There are only 600,000 souls and the Torah itself is the source of all Jewish souls the place from which they are hewn.. Therefore, there are 600,000 explanations on the level of “Peshat” on the level of “Remez,” on the level of “Drash” and on the level of “Sod.” (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 17)

Adam’s “right shoulder” is one great main Source. It is the Source known as Hebel (Abel). The right shoulder of Adam divides first into three forefathers, then into twelve tribes, and after that into seventy souls. All of them together are the partzuf of a single person. After this, the seventy roots divide up to 600,000 soul-sparks.  The left shoulder of Adam is one main root, and it is a whole partzuf. The left shoulder divides into no more than 70 Minor Roots. Kayin consists of this one Major Root that includes 70 Minor Roots comprised of 600,000 Minor Sparks.  All the individual soul-sparks of the Heel of the parzuf of the Major Root called Kayin [Cain], which is the Left Shoulder of Adam, all together are called one, entire Major Soul. There are 613 major souls in each of the Major Roots, and this entire Heel is one of the 613 major souls in the Root of the Left Shoulder that is one Major Root. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 11) In Shar gilgulim its written In the humble opinion of Chaim (Vital) The head of the heel is Hezekiah, and the end of this heel, that is the heel of the heel, is Rabbi Akiva and ben Mahalelel. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 31)

Each one of the Minor Roots divides into 613 Sparks that are internal and essential. These are the Torah scholars in this Root. Around them are the branches, who are the householders and masses. These are without any specific number. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 31)

Most souls are from Cain and Abel, the sons of Adam. Both Cain and Abel contain good and evil, good from the side of Adam and evil from the “zuhama” [filth] of the snake that went to Eve. However, since Cain is from the side of gevurah, evil adhered to him more than to Abel, who is from the side of chesed. Know that Cain is the level of the left arm of every parzuf in every world, whether in Arich Anpin, Abba  and Imma, or Zeir Anpin and Nukvah in Atzilut , or in BY»A Beriyah,Yetzira, and Asiyah. Abel is just the opposite, the level of the right arm of every parzuf in every world.  The three lower worlds of Bria, Yetzerah and Asiyah are called ‘arms’, whereas the world of Atzilut is called ‘wings’. Thus, Cain is the left wing of Atzilut and Abel is the right wing of Atzilut.  These levels of wings and arms have both “aor makif” and “Aor penim” as well. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 35) The Nefesh of Atzilut removed from Adam by his sin was divided between Cain and Abel. Thought it is always correct to say that the right precedes the left in importance and stature, here it is different. For the manifestation of Kayin and Hevel were as a result of the sin of Adam. Kayin is still the first born, and as such the more important. Amalek is from the evil side of Cain. Those souls of the Kayin source have included some of the greatest of the Prophets and Sages, among them King Hezekiah, Rabbi Akiba, and the author, HaRav Chaim Vital. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 31) Great souls from the source of Hevel included Aaron the Cohen. The root of Abel divided into many levels of roots, principally two soul-roots: The roots of Haran and Nahor, the brothers of Abram. Nahor reincarnated into Hur the son of Miriam  (Moses’ sister), while Haran reincarnated into Aaron also both Lot and Haran were from the Abel-root. From Lot later came King Rehoboam. Moshe Rabbeynu himself was from Abel, but Moshe includes both sides Cain and Abel. Also from Abel’s root are Hur ben Miriam and Ahab. Aaron was Haran the brother of Abram. Haran  came to the world rectify the sin of Adam who had performed idol-worship. However, not only did he not rectify, but he didn’t even believe in God until after Abraham came out of the fiery furnace, as the Sages say. Therefore Haran was burned in Ur Kasdim. After that, he reincarnated into Aaron to rectify the sin, but in the end he did just the opposite by making the  Golden Calf. Really he should have instead sacrificed himself when the Mixed Multitude came to him and said, “Arise and make a god for us.” (Ex. 32:1).This was not rectified until Uriah the Priest. Before this he reincarnated into Ya’abetz the Judge. He sinned then as well, constantly making vows, as the Sages say on the verse, “Ya’abetz called out to the God of Israel, saying, If you will bless me” (Chron. I 4:10) Therefore, he reincarnated into Tola the son of Pu’ah the Judge. He was called ‘Tola’ after ‘tola’a’ [worm], whose strength is in its mouth, to hint that he had come to rectify the vows that came forth from his mouth. He sinned in another way as well, as the Sages explain on the verse, “He dwelt in Shamir, in Mount Ephraim.” (Judges 10:1) For, he remained in a single location in one city, rather than traveling from place to place to judge Israel. This prevented the people from coming to him for judgment because of the need to travel. Therefore he reincarnated into Samuel the Prophet, who rectified this sin by traveling from place to place to judge the people, as the verse says. Aaron was reincarnated into Uriah the Kohen of Kiryat Ye’arim, who was killed by King Yehoyakim. Through this, he was forgiven for the death for which he was culpable as a result of the Golden Calf. However, Nadab and Abihu also reincarnated with him into Uriah the Kohen as an actual gilgul, since they died because of him, as we said on the verse, “God became very angry with Aaron to destroy him.” (Deut. 9:20). (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 33) Hillel and Shammai, both were from the root of Abel. However, Hillel was from the side of chesed of Abel, and Shammai was from the side of gevurah of Abel. Know Rabbi Akiva and others like him, are from the root of Cain (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 34) , which is from  Gevurot of Hod of Dat — the fifth Gevurah  . Also, all the souls from Gevurot of Hod in the Dat of Leah are related to the root of Rabbi Akiva — they are considered one root. You can draw a parallel from this to the root of Abel, which is from the “chasadim”  of Dat. This is the issue of the Cain-root, and from it you can extrapolate and apply to the Abel-root . In Sefer HaTikunim, Tikun 69. we learn that the place of the soul-root Rabbi Akiva ben Yosef was the hands. In the secret of, “And his hand was holding the heel of Esau.” (Gen. 25:26). The hands have the ability to go down as far as the heel or as high up as the head, unlike the rest of the limbs. Therefore, these limbs fell to the depths of the kelipot, until the heel. Rabbi Akiva was able to understand more than Moses as he was from Cain and Moses was from Abel. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 28) Moses went up, he found The Holy One blessed be He tying crowns to the letters. He said to Him, “Who is causing You to do this? He answered him, In the future a Sadeek will live named Akiva ben Yosef . And he will learn mounds and mounds of paths from each crown’ . “This is because someone who is from Abel can only understand until the crowns of the letters, called the “tagin”. Someone from the root of the second level of Cain can grasp even the “tamim” or more. As a result of his awesome deeds Moses was able to understand everything. The only the prophet Ezekiel used the term “Kohanim-Levi’im” because he was from the root of Cain, the firstborn. He prophesized in this way, as in the time of Mashiah, those who now Kohanim will then be Leviim, and those who have been Leviim will then be Kohanim. The entire root of Abel who are now  Kohanim will then be Leviim. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 35)

The good of Cain, the firstborn, fell into the heel of the “kelipot”.. When Jacob fathered Issachar, he gave him the good portion of the firstborn of Cain that he had taken from Esau as an inheritance. Jacob himself is so called because of the heel.  Regarding (the birth of) Issachar Yakov gave this good to him through Leah when he lay with her, and from this came Issachar. This is the secret of Zohar Rut that: “From Issachar comes Rabbi Akiva” (Zohar Chadash 81a) because he is the secret of the heel. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 36)

The good of Cain reincarnated into Nadab and Abihu, for the two of them are one, as it says in the Zohar in Acharei Mot and Pinchas, “The two of them are one body”. The good of Cain reincarnated into Nadab and Abihu. It went into Pinchas in the secret of “ibur”, who was Elijah the prophet. It remained there until the incident with the daughter of Jephtach, after which time it was removed from him. Later it reincarnated into Samuel the prophet, only to later return to Elijah the prophet in” ibur”, From there it went to Elisha the prophet, and then to Hezekiah the King of Judah. Then reincarnated into Yochanan High Priest Kohen Gadol the Chashmony, then into Akavia the son of Mehalelel, and after that into Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakkai Hakohen. From there it reincarnated into Rabbi Akiva ben Yosef, and this is the secret of what is written, “Three lived until 120 years of age: Moses, Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakkai, and Rabbi Akiva”. (Rosh Hashanah 31b). After that, it reincarnated into Rav Yaiba Saba, mentioned in the Zohar in the portion Mishpatim, and later into Abaye. This is the secret of what the Sages say, “Rabbi Yochanan did not overlook any verse, mishnah, etc., or question of Abaye and Rava”. (Succah 28a) (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 36)

Moses spent forty years in the house of Pharaoh, forty years in Midian, and forty years leading the Jewish people. Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakkai spent forty years in business, forty years learning, and forty years teaching. Rabbi Akiva was a simpleton for forty years. Then he learned for forty years, and then he taught for forty years. All these souls had a strong connection to Moses, for all souls are included in his, but particularly those of these  tzadikim. However, as explained elsewhere, it was only the level of the Nefesh that reincarnated into them — their level of Ruach and Neshama did not come from this root. A holy and special Nefesh entered Rabbi Akiva as the son of converts, it was one of the wasted drops that had gone out from Joseph when he was seduced by the wife of his master, a non-Jewess. The nefesh of Rabbi Akiva is not like the rest of the souls that are created by the “zivug” of tzadikim in the Garden of Eden, as mentioned in the Zohar. But is a very great and holy nefesh, but because of the sin of Adam and his son Cain, it fell down into the depths of the kelipot, and later caused the incident when the seed left Joseph. Therefore, it needed to enter the world at the time of intimacy into the body of a convert. The nefesh which enters the body of a convert after conversion is enclothed within another nefesh, which comes as the result of the  zivug of tzadikim in the Garden of Eden. It is this Nefesh that caused him to be a simpleton for the first forty years, in the secret of what the Sages say, “Converts are difficult for Israel like thorns”. (Yebamot 47b). (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 36)

Chym Vital writes  “my teacher told me at length about many of the people who came from this root of Cain.

He told me these souls are from Cain , Keinan, Mehalelel, Yuval, Yavel, Lemech, Issachar, Shelah ben Judah, Jethro, Nadab, Abihu, Nachshon ben Aminadav, Netanel ben Tzo’ar, Korach, Datan, Abiram, Pinchas, Otniel ben Kenaz, Karmi father of Achan, Shamgar ben Anat, Samson, Elkanah, Samuel the prophet, Aviah ben Shmuel, Chaver Hakini, Ya’el the wife of Chaver Hakini, Ephlal, Sismai the friend of the father of Sucho, Yishbach the father of Ish Tamua, Yashuv, Lechem, Jesse the father of David, Avishai ben Tzroya, Shima the brother of David, Do’eg, Achitophel, Aviah ben Rehoboam, Elijah the prophet, Elisha the prophet, Jonah ben Amitai, Chiel Beit Ha’eli, Navot Hayizraeli, Michah Hamorashti, Nachum Ha’elkoshi, Hezekiah the king of Judah, Menasha ben Hezekiah, Uriah the Kohen, Zechariah ben Yevarchihu, Ezekiel the prophet, Eliyahu ben Berachel Habuzi, Chananiah the friend of Daniel, Nedavia ben Yechaneyah the king, Aneni ben Eliyoani.

These Tanaim  are attached to the root of Cain, Matityahu ben Yochanan the Chashmonite High Priest, Yosi ben Yochanan of Jerusalem, Netai of the Arbel, Akavia ben Mehalelel, Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakkai, Rabbi Akiva ben Yosef, Rabbi Yosi Hagalili, Yonason ben Hyrcanus, Chananyah ben Chizkiah ben Gurion, Abba Shaul, Rabbi Yishmael ben Elisha High Priest, Rabban Gamliel, Rabbi Nehurai the Elder [mentioned] in the book of the Zohar in the portion Tetzave, Rabbi Yaiba the Elder [mentioned] in Mishpatim, Rabbi Chutzpit the Translator, Rabbi Yehudah ben Elai, Rabbi Yosi ben Meshulam Kehala Kadisha, Rabbi Achai bar Yeshaya, and one from Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai’s group mentioned in Idra Raba of Naso, but my teacher did not want to reveal to me who, and I don’t know why. (Shar haGilgulim intro 36)

There are a few other Tanaim who are attached to the root of Cain, though I don’t know in which way.

Chyim also writes that The Holy Ar”I once told him that Rabbi Yosi Hagalili is from the left “peah” of the head, from the level of  א ל שד”י , which is in the parzuf of the left-shoulder, which is in the partzuf of the Cain-root.

All those mentioned are from the second level of Cain, and only on the level of Nefesh. This is so as the sin of Adam caused the Ruach from the root of Adam to become mixed together with the Nefesh of Cain or Abel, and vice versa causing a Ruach from Abel to be with a Nefesh from Cain, or the opposite.

However, Abaye who was called Nachmaini — his Nefesh, Ruach, and Nashama were all from this second level of the root of Cain.

When sparks by necessity,  passes the way of Imma some light remains behind, one is very close to the root of Cain. The sparks of the root of Rabbi Chutzpit the Translator, whose beginning is Laban the son of Nachor.

Ezekiel the prophet is from the seed of Adam, before his son Cain was born. Ezekiel was the level of the legs of Cain.

King Hezekiah and Rav Mesharshia are both from the level of the head of the Cain-root. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 36)

Cain and Abel committed their own sin in addition to that of their father Adam causing their sparks to become more deeply immersed in the kelipot. In each generation some of their sparks reincarnate into the world to become rectified. The level of of the souls of a particular generation can be either that of the sparks of the head, or the eyes or shoulder, feet or other limbs. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 3) A limb is composed of Flesh, “Giddim” and Bones. All of the 248 limbs of the souls of Adam are comprised of  flesh, tendons, and bones, as is known. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 11) The flesh and the bones are the positive “mitzvot” of that limb and the tendons are the negative “mitzvot”.  These tendons are not included in those that comprise the 365 Tendons.

These “giddim” of the limbs are not the same as the 365 “giddim” (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 11) , but are small “giddim” in each limb (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 31). The left heel of this parzuf divides into more than the 613 soul-sparks from which come the souls of Hezekiah the King of Judah, Rabbi Akiva ben Yosef, and Akavia ben Mehalelel. There is a link joining the souls of this root The left shoulder of Adam, which is called the Cain-root. It is considered only one limb, but as with all limbs, it incorporates flesh, tendons, and bones. The tendons in each of these limbs are not included in the 365 “giddim”  of the 248 Limb  If someone from the Left Heel of the partzuf that is the Left Shoulder, which is the Root called Kayin accomplishes “tikun”, then he causes a “tikun” for all the sparks of that Heel. If he causes a blemish, then he blemishes all of them. It is like this with souls of every limb. One defect by one’s sins does not blemish all the levels in all the worlds. There is a blemish that flaws his Nefesh from the realm of Asiyah, and there is a blemish that flaws his Ruach in Yetzira, etc. If his individual spark blemishes within Asiyah, then all the sparks of this Heel within Asiyah become defaced like him. It is the same in all the other worlds. There is a blemish that flaws a Nefesh from the realm of Asiyah, and there is a blemish that flaws his Ruach in Yetzira, etc. If his individual spark blemishes within Asiyah, then all the sparks of this Heel within Asiyah become blemished like him. It is the same in all the other worlds. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 11)

  Adam’s left shoulder is one great main Source. This is the source of the soul of Kayin (Cain, son of Adam). It is a complete Parzuf, that is divided into 70 Secondary Sources. These 70 Secondary Sources in turn subdivide into 600,000 Secondary Sparks. The sin of Adam caused all souls to fall into the depths of the klipot (evil forces). The “klipot” are nourished by the light of souls they capture. Thus the “klipot” greatly endeavor to cause people to sin, in the same way people pursue their food. For when a person sins, this causes his soul to enter into their domain, and they are thus sustained by it. They hope the entrapped soul will be theirs for a very long time. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 27)  The “kelipot” themselves are actually called the level of death, Holiness is the Living God, King of the world. Therefore, the “kelipot” chase after Holiness which is called life in order to feed from them and survive. When the side of Holiness is among the “kelipot” they are able to derive sustenance and can survive. The moment the source of holiness leaves them, they die. So they pursue Holy sources to cause a Holy soul to sin. Sometimes the “klipa” fear that a “sadeek” will do an important mitzvah and cause a soul to be removed from among them. So be careful.  Souls are entrapped under the control of the klippot only by not elevating. Elevation is achieved through the energy work performed by the observance of the “mitzvot” (commandments), in all their details. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 15,16)   In the Left Shoulder there are 11 positive mitzvot and 15 negative mitzvot that pertain to it. Everyone who is from this shoulder is obligated to fulfill these mitzvot more than all the other 613. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 11)

Avraham’s soul was entrapped among them. So he is called a “righteous convert”, for his soul had come forth from the klipot and uncleanliness. As he was born to Terach the idol worshipper. Avraham, through his submission to God, was able to convert the evil that was attached to himself and turn it to good. Thus making the tikun (fixing) he made,he freed many sparks, trapped souls. Souls incarnate as families. Evil souls still have a connection to the righteous soul family members. Each soul family has the obligation to rectify all of its members. So it was Avraham’s job to rectify Terah’s soul because they were of the same Source. Don’t be surprised that the higher soul of Avraham could have been born as the son of a lower soul. The relationship of father and son enabled Avraham to do what he needed to do. Terah was the refuse of the holiness of Avraham’s soul. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 15)

The child receive makiff lights from their father and penimi lights from their mother. These makiff lights are from Chuchmah of Abba and the penimi lights are of Imma. The father gives a portion to his soul to his child. It becomes a external garment of his soul. It guards and guides the sons soul. If there are less then 500 levels of difference between the soul of the father and his child the portion of the father’s soul that he gave to his son will stay with the child, even in the time of the Messiah. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 10) Not only is one’s soul rectified by the Torah and “mitzvoth”, but even their father merits from the repentance of his son. We see this with Job who was a  “gilgul” of Terach, the father of Abraham who repented because of Abraham. God tricks the kelipot, in order to save those who stray from being pushed off completely.  (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 15)

There are many levels of souls. The female slave in parsha mishpatim is the “am haAretz” (common man) that dresses in the good of klippa Noga. The mother, slave and handmaid are souls of the worlds of Bria, Yetzera and Asiyah, being the Nashama (Intellectual soul), Ruach (Emotional soul) and the Nefesh (Animal soul) respectfully. There are five names for levels of the soul. This then is their order from below to above: Nefesh, Ruach, Nashama, Chayah, and Yachida.A man does not get all these aspects, all at one time, but only according to one’s merits. The level of Arich Anpin is quite hidden and not referred to. Neshamot come from the level of Atzilut, “Ruchin kadishin”  from the level of Beriyah, “malachim” from the level of Yetzirah, and ofanim come from the level of Asiyah. The difference between the souls of angels and that of man is that these angels come from the zivug of ‘haneshikin ha’elyonim’ [ supernal kisses; unification of chochmah and binah) whereas souls of men come from the lower “zivug” which occurs in Yesod. There are countless levels of soul roots in between.  The souls of Beriyah are greater than the angels of Beriyah itself and how much more so than the angels of Yetzira. The same is true of Yetzirah and Asiyah. The souls from the Keter of Beriyah are greater than the angels from the Keter of Beriyah (Sarafim). However, the angels from the Keter of Beriya are greater than the souls from the Chochmah of Beriya and this is the way it is throughout. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 18,19)

  The main Nefesh is that of the world of Asiyah, Ruach of Yetzirah and Nashama of the world of Briah. Yet there are these levels of soul in each world also. And from even each of the 5 parzufim. The Neshamot from Arich Anpin of Beriya are called the “Yechida of Beriya”. Those from Abba are called soul levels called “Chaya”. Those from Imma are called “Neshamah”. Those from Zeir Anpin are called “Ruach”. Souls from Nukvah of Beriyah are called the “Nefesh” of the “Neshama” that is from Beriyah All these five categories that are from the five partzufim of Beriya are called the Neshama that is from Beriyah. All five of them equal the five categories of Neshama of Atzilut. Similarly, the souls from the five partzufim of Yetzira divide into the Yechida, Chaya, Neshama, Ruach and Nefesh. They are all called the Ruach that is from Yetzira. All these levels of Souls that we  mentioned is composed of 248 limbs and 365 sinews. Every limb from the 248 limbs of the soul of Adam includes its own set of 248 limbs. Someone who comes from the shoulder includes 248 limbs from head to heel (of the shoulder limb). Thus someone whose soul is specifically from the heel of the shoulder does not have to rectify the entire shoulder and all its defect,  just the level of the heel itself. However, if a soul-spark from the level of the heel caused a defect, then all the sparks of the heel do have to rectify this blemish, since all of the sparks of the heel are interdependent. When the entire heel is rectified, then not one spark will have to reincarnate to rectify any defects for the rest of the sparks of the shoulder. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 11.29)

The souls from the five partzufim of Asiyah divide into the Yechida, Chaya, Neshama, Ruach and Nefesh. They are all called the Nefesh that is from Asiyah. Behold, souls have been explained in general and in particular.

There are four worlds called Atzilut, Briah, Yetzirah, and Asiyah. Each world has within it Five Partzufim (faces of Divine emination). They are Arich Anpin Abba, Imma, Zeir Anpin and Nakavah. It is also known that from every aspect

Within the four worlds there comes forth the souls of mankind. Souls that come forth from each of the 4 worlds are of 1 of 5 aspects, corresponding to the five Partzufim in that world which is their source. The level of soul that comes forth from Arich Anpin is called Yachida, from Abba is called Chayah, from Imma is called Nashama, from Zeir Anpin is called Ruach, and from Nakavah is called Nefesh. Accordingly are their 5 levels of souls in each world from its parzufim. Each of the 5 levels of soul contains in itself these 5 levels. Each level also is made of 613 organs and sinews. For example, the Yechida of Atzilut is divided into the 613 organs and sinews. When Adam HaRishon sinned he blemished all the sparks of his Nefesh, Ruach, and Neshama. throughout their 248 Limbs and 365 Tendons. Thus causing there to be many sparks in his head, in his eyes, and in every limb needing refinement. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 11,29) The sin of Adam caused Each of these 613 aspects further subdivide to 613 aspects. Each of these sources contains no less than 613 main sparks, each is an individual soul. These are called the 613 main Sparks. Due to the sin of the Atz Dat (tree of knowledge), they were blemished, and they divided into even greater numbers. Now each of the 613 main Sources is divided up into up to 600,000 Secondary Sources, but there can be less . The 613 main Sources are not required to subdivide equally but All depends, all division is according to the level of blemish. There are those main sources that are subdivided into only one hundred and others into more than 600,000 Secondary Sources. This is also what happened with the 613 main Sparks within each and every one of the 613 Sources. Each spark subdivided into many Secondary sparks. As a result of the sin of Adam, instead of having 613 main Souls which subdivide into 613 main Sparks, we now have 600,000 Secondary Sources, that can subdivide into 600,000 Secondary Sparks for a total of 360,000,000,000 sparks. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 11)

Each aspect of the five levels of the soul is completed  through the 3 levels of  “Ibur”, “Yenika”, and “Mochin”, alluded to in the verse, “His mother would make him a small robe, etc. ” (Samuel I 2:19) (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 1) Even if  one  ascends their Nefesh to keter of Asiyah,  it remains on the level of the Malchut of the keter of Asiyah, if the  root of the Nefesh  is from the level of Malchut. if the  root of the Nefesh  is on the level of Teferet, it remains on the level of Teferet. But a nefesh rooted in Malchut of Asiyah can ascends upward according to the person’s actions, up until the level of the keter of Asiyah.  This is true regarding any of the levels of Asiyah. But in Yetzira, Beriya, and Atzilut, its different. The reason for this difference is that in Asiyah many kelipot are nourishing much more that from the worlds above.  A person whose soul-root is malchut of Yetzira, who has rectified and completed that level, also receives a ruach from the yesod of Yetzira after he has also purified and rectified the yesod of Yetzira. The first ruach that he had from the Malchut of Yetzira remains below  in  Malchut of Yetzira, since that is where it belongs. Likewise, when he completes the hod of Yetzira, he leaves the second ruach that he had from yesod in yesod of Yetzira, and instead he receives a ruach from the hod of Yetzira. And this is the way it continues up to the keter of Yetzira. , Even though a person has already rectified t his Nefesh in Asiyah, still, he must fear that the kelipot there will sieze upon it. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 1)

The rectification of the Ruach  from the world of Yetzirah is through involvement with Torah according to Mishnah and Talmud, for its own sake. The rectification of the Neshama that is from Beriyah is through knowledge of the Inner Torah, its secrets, which are contained in the wisdom of the Zohar. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 11) One who occupies in secrets of the Torah can merit a Nashamah and can merit to draw flow from the name אהי”ה And join together the 3 names that rise up (yichud) יב”ק .   The 12 Permutations combine to 60 myriad from the combinations of the “nikud”. They are aspects of the 4 “yesodot”. In each of the 4 “yesodot” in all the purmutations of יהו”ה . So the Nashamah is divided into many parts according to the permutations, in this is the secret of “gilgul”. Portions are reincarnated each goes in in its proper time. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 19)

There are some roots of souls of men and their feminine soul-mates, who have fallen  into the kelipot. It is possible that the males will be able to leave the kelipot  but their female consorts cannot go out at all until Mashiach comes. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 8 ) In reference to the verse “God settles the individuals into a house, He releases those bound in fetters” (Psalms 68:7), the Sages of speak of a first and second soul-mate. The sages say, “pairing soul mates is as difficult as the splitting of the Red Sea”  refers to the second soul-mate.  as when a person is a new soul, in the world for the first time, then his soul-mate is born with him, and when it comes time to marry, they arrange the moment, making it simple for them to meet. Know, in many instances we see that the second marriage is better than the first. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 20)

If a man sins and needs to reincarnate, then the verse “His wife will go out with him” applies to him, as says the Saba in parsha Mishpatim of the Zohar. She will reincarnate into the world for his good. When the time comes to get married, heaven will not assist them and he will only succeed after great effort. Since he was forced to reincarnate as a result of his sin there will be those who will accuse him and want to prevent her from being available to him and they will cause fighting among them.  The generation of the desert along with the “Erev Rav” (Mixed Multitude) will reincarnate in the final generation. This is hinted to by the verse “as in the days of leaving Egypt” (Michah 7:15). Moses as well will arise among them, since they are all from the secret of Dat:  In that generation every Torah scholar will be dominated by his wife. As in the generation of the desert, the wives did not give their earrings for the golden calf while the men did. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 20)

“Behold, God does all these things with man two or three times”(Job 33:29);  is the secret of “gilgul”. It says “with man” and not with woman as generally women go to Gehenom after incarnation and are cleansed and do not require “gilgul” but only come back to this world to help a man.  But there are exceptions,  A community leader who lords himself over others reincarnates into a bee, as Rabbi Nachman bar Yitzchak said: “Pride does not suit women. Two women were proud, and the names of both were not positive: one was called ‘bee’ and the other was called ‘weasel’”. (Megila14b) He was referring to Deborah the prophetess, who lorded herself over Barak when she sent for him and did not go to him herself (Judges 4:6). (Shar HaGilgulim intro 22)
The other was Chuldah the prophetess, who insulted Zedekiah the king when she said, “Speak to the man” (Kings II 22:15), as opposed to “Speak to the king,” as the Sages say. From their words you can see that Deborah was a proud woman, and therefore she didn’t perform any work and was very talkative, never remaining silent. Therefore, a leader who lords himself over the community, and one who speaks improperly, comes back as a bee who have these two traits. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 22)
“Sadeekem” and Torah scholars can not enter the fires of “Genenom”, because of their involvement with Torah, which prevents their entry. Therefore, they need to reincarnate in this world to cleanse their sins for, “There is no righteous person in the world who does good and does not sin” (Eccl. 7:20). As they made repentance for their errors.  Completely righteous people like King David or the Prophet Daniel, God wanted to make known that they were in the world-to-come and that they would not require neither refinement of “Gehenom” nor “gilgul”. As it says, “Had I not trusted that I would see the goodness of God in the land of life!” (Psalms 27:13), and, “One thing I asked from God, this that I shall seek. That I dwell in the House of God all the days of my life.” (Psalms 27:4). This was also stated by Abigail the prophetess when she said, “The nefesh of my master is bound up in the bundle of life” (Samuel I 25:29). Of Daniel it was said, “As for you, go to your end where you will rest.” (Daniel 12:13). We see stated in Midrash Ne’elam of the Zohar on the verse, “For all the good that God did for David and Israel his people” (Kings I 8:66), that King David stayed in the world-to-come seven years after his death before they allowed him to enter the upper Jerusalem. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 22)

Every  person if he is willing to perfect his actions can acquire higher levels of Ruach Similarly, this advancement continues, and a person can ultimately obtain a Neshama from the uppermost part of Beriyah,  The Ar”i writes that Ruchot or Neshamot of the righteous are joined to a soul by “ibur,” to assist a person in his service of G‑d. When a Nefesh is “ibor” in a body that it has “yichus” to it shares in the reward and punishment but portions of the Nefesh that do not have “yichus” to the host body get reward for the Holy work the body they occupy does but they do not share in punishments for its sins. Sometimes it is possible, even in this late period of history, for the Ruach of a righteous tzadik, even from one of the Forefathers, to come as an ibur. It will all depend upon the level of the mitzvot being performed by the person. Some mitzvot have the power to draw down the Nefesh of a righteous tzadik into ibur, whereas others can draw down the Ruach of the tzadik. One can even recieve “ibor” of Moshe Rebennu. There is no generation where there is not the Ruach of Avraham, Yitchak, Yaakov and Smual. The righteous soul which enters a person and assists him during his life, as an ibur and not as a gilgul, “easily attains reward and is distant from loss.” Every time the person does a mitzvah, the righteous soul receives reward. This is the secret of what is written, “A righteous person receives his reward and the reward of his friend in Gan Eden: (Chagiga 15a). Understand this deep secret well.  A person can perform a  mitzvah or mitzvot relevant to a “sadeek” then the Nefesh of that “sadeek” can enter the person, even while they are both alive at the same time. This is the secret meaning of the verse, “The Nefesh of Jonathan became attached to the Nefesh of David” (I Samuel 18:1). The souls of “Sadeekem” who have already died and are in “Gan Aden” greatly desire to rectify and bring completion to the souls of people living in this world who come from their root as there is great benefit for these “Sadeekem”  by the good deeds performed by living people who share their root. When one leaves this world they can rise up to the level of the “sadeek” who was “ibor” in them, if they share the same level. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 2, 3)

Earlier souls that were already rectified and elevated, descend to direct and correct the lower souls in order to rectify them. It is possible to become rectified and purified to the point that one’s Nefesh will actually become refined onto the same level as that of the righteous tzadik. Afterwards, the person will have to rectify his Ruach and Neshama to such an extent of purity that they will be worthy to be clothed by the Nefesh of the sadeek. Then he will actually become transposed in his entirety onto the level of the righteous tzadik, having ascended beyond the original root-level of his Nefesh from whence he came. All of this is the reason for the help and assistance of the righteous soul. Because of things as this its possible to  have a Nefesh from Asiyah, and the Ruach and Neshama from Yetzirah. Or, the Nefesh can be from Yetzirah and the Ruach and Neshama from Briah. Alternatively, the Nefesh can be from Briah while the Ruach and Neshama are from Atzilut. However, when we say that sometimes the Nefesh and Ruach  from Yetzira, or from Beriah, it does not mean that he lacks a Nefesh from Asiyah. If a person merits Ruach from yesod of Atzilut then he will be called “Ish Elokim” (Psalms 90:1) husband of the “Matronitah” (Zohar). Regarding him it says, “A Tzadik rules upon the fear of the Lord”. (Samuel II 23:3). (Shar HaGilgulim intro 2,5)

The secret of the verse “two or three times with a man” (Job 33:29) is that 3 Nefashot are able to reincarnate with a man at a time. However, it is not possible for more than this to reincarnate at one time in one body. As far as “ibor” Nefashot go there are “Nefashot” in a persons root that are higher than himself. If he merits it, he can cause  a “ibor” of a Nefesh  that is higher than his own to enter him and help him to achieve tikun. If he increases his merit then he will receive another even higher Nefesh as an ibur from his own root of his Nefesh, and if he merits more, then then a even higher Nefesh from the source of his Nefesh will enter him. And this this can continue as the man gets higher and higher Nefashot from his own source but with all these “ibor”  he will have only 3 Nefashot, and, including his own, there will be 4 in total. More than this is not possible. But what happens is that as he increases his merits, then he can even receive higher “ibor Nefeshot” as well, as a higher “ibor nefesh ” enters it replaces a lower one so he will never have more that 3 “Nefashot” at one time, plus his own. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 5)

If a person merits obtaining his Nefesh, Ruach, and Neshama, and then blemishes them through sin, and does not make “tikun” of his blemish he will have to be reincarnated to rectify the damage. When he returns in a gilgul with his Nefesh and he rectifies it, his Ruach will not join him. This is because his Ruach remains blemished, and it cannot rest upon a rectified Nefesh. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 1)

Therefore, his blemished Ruach will be reincarnated into another person, joining up with the Nefesh of a convert. The Neshama will likewise do the same. And the Nefesh that was rectified will receive a rectified Ruach of a righteous person who was similar to him in some of the particular good deeds that he performed. It will actually take the place of his own Ruach. Similarly, if he rectifies his [blemished] Ruach completely, then he will receive a Neshama from some righteous person, which will act in place of his own Neshama. This is the esoteric meaning of what Chazal say: “Righteous people are greater in death than during their lifetimes “(Sanhedrin 47a). One’s Ruach and Nashamah can not join together in one body except with their original Nefesh.(Shar HaGilgulim intro 1)

Now, after this person dies, his [own rectified] Nefesh will go together with this Ruach [of a righteous person] and through it [i.e. the Ruach] receive the blessing fitting for itself. When his own Ruach, which joined with the Nefesh of a convert, becomes completely rectified, then his original Nefesh will say, “I will go and return to my first husband,” since it has been rectified. It works in the same way for the Neshama with respect to the Ruach. After a person dies, they return in a gilgul and achieve tikun together.  (Shar HaGilgulim intro 1)

If a person rectified his Nefesh, and came back to receive and complete his Ruach, but during that gilgul he sinned, then his Nefesh will not be affected in such a way that it would be forced to come back by itself to become rectified once again. Rather, because he now has a Ruach, the sin will only damage the Ruach. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 2)

Once the Nefesh is rectified, he will not receive his Ruach until after he dies. Then the Nefesh can reincarnate with the Ruach. Once they become rectified and they are ready for their Neshama, they cannot receive her until they reincarnate again. Then they can merit their Neshama., There are exceptions to this.

. We learn from Safer Bahir the souls of the wicked can’t leave from here but must “gilgul”. The Sefer HaBahir insists that a person pursue the wicked in order to find merit for them, like one who runs after saving his own life. This is because the evil person, whom the “sadeek” pursues to find merit, may possess good sparks that the righteous person lacks, while he himself may have received the evil person’s bad sparks. However, through a loving relationship, he the “sadeek” can extract the good sparks from him and achieve completion, while giving away the bad sparks and completing the other’s evil. This is the secret meaning of, “The righteous person takes his portion and that of his friend in the Garden of Eden; the wicked one takes his portion and that of his friend in Purgatory” (Chagigah 15a) (Shar HaGilgulim intro 20)

The main thing of Nanhaga (Divine guidance of the worlds) is involved in “gilgullim” (reincarnation of souls). There are 2 kinds of gilgullim of “Nashamot” (souls). According to the actions of man, “gilgul” is given for his tikun (correction). Souls need to work hard to fill lackings, and make a complete “tikun” (repairs). To each is a different “nanhaga” (Divine guidance-Providence). A soul may gilgul within a man at any time after birth and there are Souls that gilgul in a man’s body from the time of birth.

When a person is born, his Nefesh (Animal soul) enters him. Ideally at the age of 13 one receives revelation of their Ruach, If they do the work required. At 20 their Nashama becomes revealed to them. If they do what is required of them. Such a person successfully completes the rectification of all three levels of soul in a single lifetime. Such a person would not need to reincarnate ever again, at least not for the sake of personal rectification. However, few people ever achieve such. Most People because of sins must go through all their lives with only their Nefesh that they received at birth. If one does not act with proper righteousness, one never finishes building and completing their Nefesh, thus not being able to advance to the next steps of building and rectifying their Ruach and Nashama. Therefore they may require to reincarnate many lifetimes. If one does not completely rectify his Ruach, then his Nashamah will not enter him and he will remain with only his Nefesh and Ruach. Only the part of any level of soul that has yet to be rectified is vulnerable to damage from the impact of sin. If in one gilgul one aquires both levels of his Nefesh and Ruach and he damages both. Only his Nefesh must return in gilgul. But because he did damage in Yetzera (his Ruach) in this lifetime he may be punished severely. If one has a opportunity to do mitzvot (commandments) and does not, they may have to return in gilgul to do so. One who does not learn all 4 levels of Torah will require gilgul. A person who does not learn Torah blemishes the  sefirah of Tiferet,  in each of the Four Worlds of ABY”A Torah is on the level of Tiferet. A person is not complete until that he fixes and merits to take the level of soul “Yachida of Arich of Atzilut”. A person can blemish or fix sparks that are from their same source such as the left heel or left shoulder by his actions. But he does not effect soul sparks from other sources. One does not effect damage in all levels in all worlds, but damages done are very specific. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 20)

At times a Nefesh becomes rectified and purified to such an extent that it need not come back again with the Ruach for its rectification. Instead it remains above in a place fitting for it, “bound up with the Bundle of Life” (Shmuel 1:25:29). The Ruach then has to come back and reincarnate with the Nefesh of another person. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 2)

If a person rectified his Nefesh and came back to receive and complete his Ruach but sinned, it will not affect his Nefesh. For, this would force the Nefesh to have to come back by itself to become rectified once again. Rather, because he now has a Ruach, the sin will only damage the Ruach, and only this will require rectification. In other words, once the Nefesh has been completely rectified and he has reincarnated to work on his Ruach. He does not start from Square One once again. Rather, the Nefesh is protected against any further damage for otherwise, the rectification process would go on forever for some people. They will reincarnate together until the Ruach is rectified. Then the first Nefesh will come back with the Ruach in order to receive and rectify the Nashamah. Or, the Ruach may come back by itself with the Nashamah until the Nashamah is rectified, after which time all three of them no longer need to return and are instead “bound up with the Bundle of Life,” as is fitting for them. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 2)

The father gives an exterior garment to the soul of the son , his surrounding lights which helps him and guides him down the proper path. The Internal Light of one’s soul is drawn from the energy of their mother. If there is less than five hundred levels difference between the soul of the father and that of the son, then the portion of the father’s soul will remain with the son’s even in the time of Mashiach., but in the time of Resurrection of the Dead or in the World-to-Come everything returns back to its root. They will separate completely.  (Shar HaGilgulim intro 10)

On the other hand, if there is a difference between them of five hundred levels, or more than five hundred levels, then the lesser will be nullified within the greater. They will permanently unite forever, and they will never separate. The two of them will become one root. This is in regards of a father with a son. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 10)

Regarding a teacher and his student, a teacher gives some of his spirit to his student, like a father does to a son. However, it is a more forceful connection. The spirit stays with the student forever, and they never separate. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 10)

If the father’s intentions were for good during the time they conceive the child, but that of the mother was bad, then the Surrounding Light of the child will be righteous, but the Internal Light will be wicked. With the passage of time the Surrounding Light will overcome the Internal Light, and he will be completely righteous. This is because the Surrounding Light includes the Internal Light, and it ,the Surrounding Light, will overturn it to purify it. If you see a person who is light like an eagle and runs like a deer in all his activities and quick in all his work, it is because the Surrounding Light that comes from the energy of the father dominates over him and propels a person to the place that it wants. If the father’s intention at the time of conception was for the sake of the mitzvah, then this child will be quick to do the work of Heaven, and he will be very great in Torah. However, if his father’s intentions were one for his own enjoyment and not the “mitzvah”, then he will be quick in the tasks of this world. If his mother’s intention was for the “mitzvah”, then he will be lazy to do the work of this world. However, if her concentration was not upon the “mitzvah”, then the son will be lazy in the work of Heaven.  (Shar HaGilgulim intro 10)

If the father’s intentions are for evil, but the mother’s is for good, then the Surrounding Light will be bad and the Internal Light good. However, after a time the Surrounding Light that is bad will overcome the good Internal Light and it will also become bad.

A “Nefesh” is given 3 ”gilgulim” to begin ”teshuva” if it is not successful it is then destroyed from our people and descends to one of the 7 dwelling places of Gehenom to be forgotten for all generations. It is written “Behold, God does all these things, two or three times with a man” (Job 33:29). There is also the verses, “For three sins of Israel, but for the fourth I will not return…”(Amos 2:6), and “Who visits the sins of the fathers on the children unto the third [generation] and unto the fourth generation” (Ex. 20:5). Yet, it says in Sefer HaTikunim (69) that a righteous person can reincarnate up to one thousand generations. The answer to this is that  the verse referring to “four generations”  of “gilgul” is referring to evil people, as it says “Who visits the sins of the fathers… to those who hate Me.” In contrast, to the righteous with whom He is “doing kindness for a thousand generations” (ibid. 6) Those who hate God are the evil people, they have a four generation limit on reincarnations if they do not produce merit in their lives. Those who love God are the righteous people, to whom “a thousand generations” of reincarnations applies. When the Nefesh of a person comes into the world and sins, it can return in 3 reincarnations. But if all 3 of these incarnation the soul made no “tikun”  from then onward the soul will not be able to reincarnate again. It is then said about this Nefesh that  “The Nefesh will be cut off from his people” (Gen.17:14). This soul is called a “rushah” (wicked person). The Holy Ar”I said that this is only true regarding the Nefesh, which is from the world of Asiyah which is immersed in the kelipot. That is why “karet” (excision- being cut off) is only mentioned with respect to the Nefesh, because only it can be cut off from holiness. This is all so as Chym Vital explains in Shar Gilgulim that The Holy One, blessed is He, is Omniscient and knows that if an evil person reincarnates he will only add to his sins and the abundance of his transgressions will outweigh his merits. Since it is known that he has already completed the few mitzvot that are absolutely vital to the root of his Nefesh, it is better for him to be removed from the world. God removes him from the world, sends him into Gehinom to cleanse his sins, while the merit of his mitzvot remains intact. “God desires kindness!” However, with respect to a righteous person whose sins are less than his mitzvot, the suffering during gilgulim can cleanse them. His many merits will remain intact even while he is increasing them with each gilgul. His reward will be tremendous, without limit. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 4)

One can even reincarnate from one species into another. Rav Nachunyah ben Hakana teaches By facing away, ignoring the commandments while in exile one can be “gilgul” as an unclean animal. In Sefer Haredim it is written that when a person reincarnates into an animal, beast, or bird they remember their past life. This (memory) causes much sorrow and pain, seeing how they have fallen from heaven, from the image of man to the image of a beast. Reincarnation also occurs in food. A food that was defiled, or which did not attain the goal that God prescribed for it, must be rectified. Thus vegetable matter is incarnated as a animal which in turn  a human being makes the tikun for it by eating it. Reincarnation to someone incarnated in a stone or into a plant happens at specific times of the year. Someone who reincarnated into something inanimate for a few years, when the time arrives for him to ascend to the higher level of plant, he can only do so during the four middle months of the year: Av, Elul, Tishrei, and Cheshvan. If the time to ascend occurs during these four months then he will ascend. If not, he will have to wait until these four middle months come around again. The time to be elevated from plant to animal is the first four months: Nissan, Iyar, Sivan, and Tammuz. The time to be elevated from chai to midabair is the last four months: Kislev, Tevet, Shevat, and Adar. The order of ascension for soul incarnation is in steps from the mineral to Plant, then to animal, and finally to human, sometimes a person can climb two levels at once. Someone who has reincarnated into water and salt is not considered to be part of domaim, rather tsome’ach, since water is life-giving — it flows and it is not stationary like dust. Salt itself is made from water and therefore is it considered part of plant. This is what the Sages say : One who takes salt from his quarry is guilty of ‘cutting’, and as it is well known [in the laws of Shabbat that] such cutting only applies to things belonging to the plant kingdom. (Shabbat, Chap. 7). Some people reincarnate into water, which is considered on the level of vegetation, as we mentioned previously. This can happen to a person who spills blood in this world, and you can remember this from «you will spill blood on the ground like water (Deut. 12:16). Any soul that is judged in the heavenly court, someone goes before him continuously announcing his “gilgul” or punishment, never leaving him. There is also one ‘enforcer’ assigned to him, punishing him as is fitting. For example, in the case of one who reincarnates into water, the enforcer stands over him continuously, constantly lowering him into the water for the duration of allotted time. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 22)

The Arizal explains that there are more than one type of gilgul (incarnation). Gilgulim that occur during the lifetime of a person are called “ibur” (pregnancy). These souls can enter one at any time after birth and the soul may stay with them for a moment or the remainder of a lifetime. Some mitzvos have the power to draw down the Nefesh of a righteous person whereas others can draw down the Ruach. The Arizal explained, a person can have up to four souls in his body at one time. These souls are all from the same source. Ibur can benefit both the host body and the guest soul. If the person maintains the appropriate level of righteousness the extra soul will stay with him. This could be for the rest of the host person’s life. If so the connection will remain even after death. And, that can help a person to achieve a much higher level of reward in the World-to-Come than he otherwise might have received on his own. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 2)

There are completely “New souls”, some of these souls were not included in the body of Adam when he sinned. These souls that were not part of Adam’s soul when he was first created. These are truly completely new souls They will receive their Ruach at 13 and their Nashama at 20. They are able to change their evil inclination to become like a angel. Other than “new souls” All other souls that come into the world are old souls. They are all born from the Unification of Back to Back. A person who came into the world for the first time (a New soul), the Sabba of Zohar Mishpatim explains, If he merits  they bring him a Ruach; if he merits more, they bring him a Neshama,. This is not the case, as we have explained, for someone who reincarnates and usually must return in “gilgul” to receive the next level of soul if they merit to it in a life time. There are special cases when the need is great that one with only a Nefesh can attain Ruach— and even Neshama— in the same gilgul in which his Nefesh has been completed. This is possible even though it is not the first gilgul of the Nefesh but this is not the norm. It does happen at times that when a person sleeps at night and deposits his Nefesh with God, When he awakens in the morning, his Ruach will then enter him. After a Nefesh has become completely rectified, it leaves a person at night while he sleeps, and the Nefesh of a convert enters him in its place in the morning together with the Ruach of the man himself. The Ruach will be clothed within this Nefesh until it is completely rectified. At that point the first Nefesh will return to the body, and they remain together. If the person merits even more afterwards, in the morning his Neshama will enter him and remain there until completely rectified. , The main “tikun” is when one sleeps and deposits their soul by saying upon lying down, “In Your hand I entrust my spirit” (Psalms 31:6). At that time, the soul is elevated through a higher level of “zivug” and then returns as a new creation, in the secret of “They are new every morning” (Lamentations 3:23). This can similarly occur in the secret of “nefilat apayim”. (Shar HaGilgulim intro 19, 35)

Souls that leave the Kelipot and which are elevated into the world of holiness in secret of “ibur” only happens as a result of the prayers of the Jewish people through “yichudim” (supernal unifications) a “Sadeek” makes in this world, as discussed in Sha’ar Ruach HaKodesh. These souls from a transgression while they were in this world, descended into the depths of Kelipot.  If a particular soul is elevated from the Kelipot enters the Malchut for rectification, then that soul in the Malchut has the ability to seize blemished souls and bring them up in secret of ibur. Through the meditation of Falling on the Face prayer called “Tachnun”, only the Ruach can be withdrawn from the “kelipa” before the rectification of the Nefesh is completed. This process of drawing out a higher level of soul before the Nefesh has completed its tikun only applies to the level of Ruach. Under no circumstances can the Neshamah be drawn from the depths of the” kelipot” until the Nefesh and the Ruach have been completely rectified. A soul in the Malchut, it is constantly elevating “mym nukvin”,as a result of this it is elevated and it is able to elevate souls as well. A in the Malchut gives ability to  blemished souls to becomes enclothed in their souls and become rectified. This soul that they raise from the “klippa” remains with them until the time of resurrection, at which time it is separated from them. There is no “Sadeek” in the entire world who does not have two souls, as mentioned in the Zohar  with respect to the verse, “These are the generations of Noach,  Noach”, and likewise, Moses, Moses, and, Samuel, Samuel. For this reason the name is mentioned twice. Each “Sadeek” has 2 Ruach one in Heaven and one on earth. (Shar HaGilgulim 13,14)

There is also the case of a man born with 2 Nefesh in his body, this is called a double “Gilgul”. They are called one soul. It can handle all the trouble and difficulties it faces ((Shar HaGilgulim 4-6)

The Zohar states at the beginning of the portion Noach in the Tosefta on the verse “Noach, Noach” (Gen. 6:9) that every righteous person has two Ruach, one on earth below and one in Heaven above. Understand this, it is the secret of, “Behold My witness is in Heaven ”  (Job 16:19) which refers to Chanoch, and Elijah to because he too is a heavenly angel. This is the secret of “He appointed it as an testimony to Joseph …”(Psalms 81:6) — since Joseph merited to receive the Neshama of Chanoch. “Joseph was handsome” (Gen. 39:6)  because he merited Adam’s beauty, which came to him from the edge of the Neshama of supernal Atzilut. However, Joseph did not merit this until the night of the “end of the two years,” (Gen. 41:1) when it was decreed that he should leave jail, that very day he rose to greatness. So is it written, “He appointed it as a testimony to Joseph  when He went out over the land of Egypt.”  (Psalms 81:6) This becomes understandable when you recall  that the Ruach or the Neshama enters a person at night while they are sleeping.  (Shar HaGilgulim 32)

Moses merited the Dat of Atzilut. The three forefathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob merited to Chesed, Gevurah, and Tiferet of Atzilut. (Shar HaGilgulim 31)

A man who only performs  mitzvah’s minimal physical requirements merits only to the Nefesh called Asiyah. However, he is similar to a woman whose husband has gone overseas and has left her without clothing, food, or drink. He is like the Shechinah that sits in exile and darkness while her house lays in ruin. That is what a Nefesh of a person is like without a Ruach, they are without light and intelligence for understanding. Know. the majority of people only have the soul level Nefesh. (Shar HaGilgulim introduction 1) And only a small amount in these later generations ever merit to their Ruach and Neshama. Yet, we know that the son of David will not come until all the Ruchot and Neshamot are rectified (Talmud Yebamot 62a). (Shar HaGilgulim 18)

Now we understand that the Ruach and Neshama can reincarnate into other bodies on top of the Nefesh of a convert, and they, too, become rectified.

This is the order of the five levels of souls

When Adam sinned some of the souls in him were removed and returned to their holy places. They are called level one souls.

1) Truly new souls can remain within the Malchut within the secret of the fetal stage for a period of twelve months, after which time they will descend into a body in this world. Thus, we find women whose term of pregnancy is twelve months, as mentioned in the Talmud. (Shar HaGilgulim 13)

2nd Level Two souls are those who remained with Adam and which are considered new to some degree have the ability to remain within the Malchut for nine months before coming into the world. Souls that remained with Adam, but the kelipot have no effect over them are level two souls. They can only merit to reach in this world the wings of malchut of Atzilut, called the nefesh of Atzilut the first time of incarnation. Higher than this they cannot reach the first time, only after they come back another time. Since those from this level can reach the  Nefesh of Atzilut the first time, these righteous people are called ‘angels’. Any time you find the term angel used for a righteous individual they will be from this root. Rabbi Yehudah bar Illoy was from this second level. Our Sages hinted to this in the Talmud by writing that every Friday he used to wash his face and feet in honor of Shabbat and was similar to an angel of the legions of God. (Shabbat  25b). Yehudah and Chizkiah, the sons of Rebbi Chiya, are also called angels, also being from the root of the second level of soul. Our Sages alluded to this when they taught, «In Heaven two angels, Gabriel and Michael argued — and some say two Amoraim in the west. Who were they? Yehudah and Chizkiah, the sons of Chiya. (Baba Batra 75a). But Chanoch, who received the “zihara illah” a neshama of Atzilut, those from the world of Atzilut are called an angel, and can rise to the level of an angel. The nefesh-spark of the Rashba, and that of Rabbi Yosef Karo, the author of the Beit Yosef and the Shulchan Aruch of the previous generation, were from the feather of Rabbi Yehudah bar Elai. (Shar HaGilgulim 35)

3rd Level souls are of Cain and Abel and are also considered new on some level, but they have two blemishes. As a result, they can only remain in the stomach of Malchut for a seven month period of time. Souls that remained with Adam and fell within the kelipot  are level three souls, some are male souls in male “klipa” some are female souls in female klippa. (Shar HaGilgulim 13)

The 4th Level of souls are the souls that fell off Adam into the kelipot. These now  have left the kelipot and descend into this world for the first time. Nevertheless they are like the rest of the previous levels that have come a second time. They are considered to be old and reincarnated souls. Therefore, whether from Level Four which have come for the first time, or from the previous levels that have come for the second time or more, they only remain in the stomach of the Malchut for forty days, the time it takes to form the fetus. After that, they descend into this world.

The 5th Level of souls, those of converts, only remain in the stomach, the Malchut, for three days. The time it takes for the seed to fertilize. After that, they come into this world. (Shar HaGilgulim 7,13)

There is a type of soul that is a result of Adam’s sin, after which his limbs fell off and he was reduced until he was no higher than one hundred cubits

These sparks of his soul that left him at the time of the sin returned to the depths of the kelipot.  It was from this level that the soul of Seth, the son of Adam was taken. These souls that fell amongst the kelipot after Adam sinned, from which came his son Seth and others. Are called old souls and the lowest of all of the types, because they fell from Adam and splintered into many sparks and pieces as a result of his sin. They are called old, meaning from a previous gilgul. (Shar HaGilgulim 7)

Abel’s  Nefesh and Ruach were damaged and mixed together with evil, his  Neshama remained completely good. His nefesh reincarnated, it first went to Seth the son of Adam. The evil was separated out and was later given to Balaam the wicked. The little amount of good that was in Balaam reincarnated into Nabal the Carmelite, which was the beginning of the tikun. Balaam’s only power was in his mouth, by speaking “loshon hara ”  and cursing. Therefore, after Pinchas killed him he reincarnated into a rock that could not speak, to rectify the “loshon hara” that came from his mouth. However, when Nabal followed in his ways and  spoke loshon hara about King David saying, “Who is David and who is Ben Yishai?” (Samuel I 25:10), he reversed the tikun. Not only did he not rectify the previous sin but he added to the damage. Therefore it says, “and he was a rock,” (Samuel I 25:37) since his mazel saw how previously he had reincarnated into a silent stone, its written “His heart died within him.”  (Shar HaGilgulim 29)

The Ruach of Abel reincarnated into Noah. The Ruach of Abel was not rectified since the evil within it was not being completely separated out, there remained a combination of good and evil. Tevi the servant of Rabban Gamliel was born into Ham, Noah’s son.

The Nashama of Abel reincarnated into ,  it never contained an element of evil. So it says concerning it, “She saw that it good” (Ex. 2:2)

There are other souls which are still considered new, but they are not like those first mentioned. These souls are in no way bound by time in their ability to gain new levels. The only thing it depends on is merit. They are able to get a Nefesh of Atzilut before they are 13. This type of soul was in Kain and Abel. Sparks of Adam’s soul that remained within him after the sin. The Zohar teaches that  it was from these sparks that Kyn and Hevel came from. It cannot ascend to the level of Chayah and Yachida of Atzilut, but only Nefesh of Atzilut. These souls were in the body of Adam at the time of the sin, but did not descend to the klippot. There is another type of soul which did fall when Adam sinned. When parzufim were formed within Adam these souls were placed back to back. Once they enter hachel Ahava of Bria they are then created anew face to face. In order to turn from back to back to face to face this is by “nesira”. Z”a must receive sufficient light so to enable the “shared” back to double. One for him and one for her. They are separated Sefirah by Sefirah till they are 2 separate parzufim (Z’a and Nakavah). This is the last step of the Nesira. Then they become as “New souls”. These souls do not easily come to sin. And in time they grow and add levels. According to the level of “lavush” (makiff) one can receive new levels of Soul. Lavush is a level between light and vessel. It is pennimi to vessels and chitzon to lights. It covers and dims lights preventing the vessels from shattering. The “levush” is Nh”y of a higher parzuf. 2 or 3 “nefashot” (souls) can incarnate in one man who is a “New soul”, but all the “nefashot” must be in a single bond together. 3 “ibor” incarnations can enter into the body of man to help him at a time. Including the host soul this is 4 souls in one body. Later he can acquire more ibor souls of a lower level and they become absorbed in his higher level souls from his root. The higher levels help the lower level souls make tikun, as their levels are interconnected. But he never has more than 3 “ibor”. After a man has made 3 gilgul and if he has not made tikun a sadeek will become ibor in him to help him complete his tikun.

A man who is gilgul as a woman because of sin cannot give birth to children with out great difficulty. To have children a female soul must enter her as a “ibor”, and then she can only give birth to girls. Only by great merit can a male soul enter the fetus. (Shar HaGilgulim 9)

A man takes his “Zivug” (soulmate) from the source of his mothers soul. One who sins with a women who is not his “zivug” can need to be “gilgul” with him because of this.

The purpose of “gilgul” is to rectify blemishes of previous lifetimes and each successive incarnation manifests and rectifys new, different dimensions of the same soul. Know, that if a person merits obtaining his Nefesh (Animal soul), Ruach (Divine emotional soul), and Neshama (Soul of Divine intellect), and then blemishes them through sin, he will have to be reincarnated to rectify the damage. When he returns in a gilgul with his Nefesh and he rectifies it, his Ruach will not join him. This is because his Ruach remains blemished, and it cannot rest upon a rectified Nefesh. Therefore, his [blemished] Ruach will be reincarnated into another person, joining up with the Nefesh of a convert. The Neshama will likewise do the same. And the Nefesh that was rectified will receive a rectified Ruach of a righteous person who was similar to him in some of the particular good deeds that he performed. It will actually take the place of his own Ruach. Similarly, if he rectifies his [blemished] Ruach completely, then he will receive a Neshama from some righteous person, which will act in place of his own Neshama. This is the esoteric meaning of what the sages say: “Righteous people are greater in death than during their lifetimes (Sanhedrin 47a).” Now, after this person dies, his [own rectified] Nefesh will go together with this Ruach [of a righteous person] and through it [i.e. the Ruach] receive the blessing fitting for itself. It works in the same way for the Neshama with respect to the Ruach. After a person dies, they return in a gilgul and achieve tikun together.  (Shar HaGilgulim 1)

Neshamot that The Blessed Holy One wants to send to go down below into this world. Can go at times to  Gan Aden. There they meet the souls of converts and can take hold of one of these souls, and unite with it and dress itself within it, and go out of Gan Aden  incarnate with the soul of the Convert in this world. These Neshamot come down into this world to inspire others in the service of Hashem . When these Neshamot come they dress in those souls of converts, and that is how a gentile enters into the Holy seed. But it is only within these garments, the souls of converts, that these higher souls in Gan Aden are able to exist and effect the things in this world. These higher souls from Gan Aden don’t need to come down to this world as they have completed themselves but come down here to help others and to enjoy doing the Divine service dressing in the soul of the convert who finds doing the “mitzvot” of the Torah exiting as its so new to them. The Nefesh of the convert is a garment that dresses these higher souls that were in Gan Aden. The Nefesh (animal soul) of a convert can be a garment for the soul levels of Neshama (Soul of Divine intellect) and Ruach (Emotional soul) of these higher souls in Gan Aden. It is through this exterior garment of the Nefesh of the convert  that these higher souls in Gan Aden can dress into and enter into the physical world. Thus, the Nefesh of the convert is used as a platform bringing VERY high souls in Gan Aden to enter into this  physical world.

There are other Nefashot [plural form of Nefesh] of converts that fall out from the Kelipah of Nogah, which is composed of good and evil, as mentioned in Parshat Vayakhel, p. 203. They are from the marital intercourse of the souls of the tzadikim [righteous ones] that take place every night in the earthly Garden of Paradise, as mentioned in Beshalach, p.188

The are 3 kinds of souls of Isrealites,  new souls, intermediate ones, which are the souls of Kayin and Hevel, and old ones, which fell from Adam Harishon when he sinned and they fell into the Kelipot.  (Shar HaGilgulim 1)

In these later generations the Shechinah has descended to the souls at the level of the Legs of Adam. The souls of these later generations are from the Legs of Adam. These souls are exiled in the klipot, earlier (higher) souls have already been fixed. There are some men who cannot marry their soul mate as their female side is from חור the son of Miriam. These souls are sunk in the klipot and will not come out from there until the Messiah comes.

All the souls were originally within the body of Adam. Every one now must correct and establish their portion in the Body of Adam. Mashiah’s soul is from the sefira Keter it is the Source soul of all Yisrael’s souls. The soul of the Messiah will include all the souls of Yisrael, all 600,000, as they were prior to the sin of Adam HaRishon. A part of the soul of the Messiah directly corresponds to each individual’s soul. So every Jew must prepare that portion of the Messiah’s soul that corresponds to his own soul. This must be done until all has been rectified and His entire stature is complete.

At the time of the destruction of the Second Temple sin was so prevalent the nation did not have the power to purify the sparks through prayer and to raise them up. So sparks could only be refined by the death of the Ten Martyrs. From the time of Adam until the arrival of Mashiach, the tikun is to renew souls that are Back to Back, returning them Face to Face. Sometimes a person will commit a light sin, but they will be very strict and very exacting with him, punishing him as if he committed a severe sin. Therefore, A ‘light’ sin by complete “sadeek” and pious people, such as Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakkai, is considered as severe as many sins by another person. One who only possesses a nefesh of Asiyah can only cause damage to Asiyah. A “Sadeek” damages many levels and worlds if they sin. One cannot fully fathom the ways of God when he sees someone experiencing this. One cannot grasp such matters, but he must trust that all God does is righteous and with justice.  (Shar HaGilgulim 21)

Nadab and Abihu were reincarnate  many times. When Nadav and Abihu were born into this world, the primary “tikun” for the root of Cain began, the second and superior level of root from Adam. All the souls of this root came from the “tzelem” [image] of Nadav and Abihu, on the level of the “aor makif” which rests on them In the beginning Nadab and Abihu were in Eliyahu, and after that in Elisha, aside from the other “gilgulim”. Nadab and Abihu are from the same root and many sparks are affected by them. Thus, as a result of each “gilgul”, many sparks and portions of their root were rectified. However, the sparks that were not rectified were the ones that Elisha asked of Elijah; those that were already rectified ascended to their fitting place. Therefore, Elisha was a combination of two levels. The main spark of his soul came from Joseph, as is known and he also possessed part of the root of Nadab and Abihu, from the side of Cain. Elisha rectified the sin of Cain. Since he originated from the spark of the Cain root, he also wanted the sparks of Nadab and Abihu to join him. This is what caused The ibur of Nadab and Abihu  were from the root of the soul of Korach who was from the nefesh of Cain. After that Cain reincarnated into Hezekiah/Chizkiyahu King of Judah. to hint to that after the nefesh of Cain was rectified he was called ‘Chizkiah’, because through him Cain was strengthened from his weakness. When Jethro the father-in-law of Moses converted, he merited the Nefesh of Atzilut that had been given to Cain, but just on the level of “aor penimi”. Abihu took the “aor makif” of the Nefesh of Atzilut of Adam, which had been given to his son Cain. Regarding Pinchas  it says, “Elazar the son of Aaron took a daughter of Potial for a wife and she bore him Pinchas.” (Ex. 6:25)  The Sages say, ‘Potial’ is Joseph, also this is Jethro. This is the secret: When Pinchas was born, he incorporated two soul-sparks. This is the meaning of “Potiel”, which is similar to “tipin” [drops], for he was from two soul-drops, one spark from the root of Joseph and the second spark from the side of Jethro. This level that incorporates these two souls is called Pinchas. Pinchas was born with the combination of two sparks, a spark of Joseph and a spark from Jethro. However, in the case of a soul that comes called  “ibur” came the Nefesh of Nadab and Abihu to Pinchas,  and another spark must accompany it. Furthermore, this spark must be new to the world and not a reincarnation. Such a spark joined with the Nefesh of Nadab and Abihu that came in “ibur” to unify it with the Nefesh of Pinchas. Also a new soul came in “ibur” in Pinchas called “Elijah the Tishbi” from the inhabitants of Gilad, and from the root of Gad, which was a new soul at that time. This was in order to combine the Nefesh of Nadab and Abihu with the Nefesh of Pinchas itself. Pinchas also required an additional new soul in order to unite the new soul called “Elijah the Tishbi” with the rest of the older souls, that is the Nefesh of Pinchas and that of Nadab and Abihu.  It was Elijah the Tishbite from the tribe of Gad who ascended to Heaven and he did not descend again. However, Elijah from the tribe of Benjamin reincarnated into the one mentioned in the verse, “And Jaareshiah, and Elijah, and Zichri were the sons of Jeroham.” (Chron. I 8:27) Later when he died, he ascended to join Elijah who had ascended. It is Elijah from the tribe of Benjamin who ascends and descends constantly to perform miracles for the righteous and to speak with them He received an additional soul called “Elijah” from the root of Benjamin, mentioned in the verse, “and Jaareshiah, and Elijah, and Zichri, were the sons of Jeroham.”(Chronicles I 8:27), as Elijah himself wrote to the Sages that he is “from the children of the children of ” (Bereishit Raba 71:12) Chyim Vital says in Shar Gilgulim Elijah is a combination of souls, his Nefesh comes from the level of Nadab and Abihu of Cain. His Ruach came from another level, although I did not learn from my teacher from where. When Pinchas killed Zimri, he merited to receive the Nefesh of Atzilut, which was previously in Nadab and Abihu. After the Nefesh of Nadab and Abihu that had been “ibur” in him was removed, it later reincarnated into Samuel the prophet. Elijah gave the level called the drop of Joseph to the prophet Jonah, son of Amitai the Tsarafite when he revived him. (Kings I 17:17-23) This is the secret of what is written in the Zohar, «It was taught: Jonah came from the legion of Elijah, which is why he is called, “son of Amitai” [son of Truth]. This is also the secret of what the Sages write, «It was taught in the school of Elijah, “The lad that I revived was  Mashiach son of Joseph.” Since he came from a drop of Joseph he will therefore be Mashiach ben Joseph, may it happen speedily in our time! (Shar HaGilgulim 32)

The prophet Elijah took the ruach of Atzilut of Adam, and therefore he went up to Heaven and did not die like the rest of people. For he is as an angel from the hosts of God, and after that he literally became a heavenly angel.  There are many other issues regarding this matter. After Eliyahu was “gilgul” in Chizkyahu Ha Melech he was “gilgul” in Mattiyahu ben Yochanon the Maccabee after that Akiva ben Mehallal after that in Rabbi Yochanon ben Zaki ha Kohen and after that Rabbi Akiva. This is concerning the Nefesh only. The source of their Nashamah was from Moshe Rebenu. Rabbi Akiva and  Rabbi Yochanon ben Zaki are the Right and left shoulders of Moshe Rebennu who is mixed in the source of Kayin.

From a view point as this you can make the necessary connections and understand all reinincarnations throughout history.

A portion of the Neshama of Atzilut was received by Chanoch (Enoch) son of Jared, (Gen. 5:18) and therefore, he was a heavenly angel called Matto”t, as is known. Therefore he also did not die in the way of men. Enoch,  merited his Adam’s Nefesh, Ruach, and Neshama of Beriya, Yetzira, and Asiyah] also merited the level of Neshama of Atzilut which was removed from Adam when he sinned. (Shar HaGilgulim 31)

Naval HaCarmeli reincarnated into something inanimate, and thus it says, “His heart died within him and he was a rock” (I Samuel 25:37). The secret of this is understood from knowing that Laban reincarnated into Balaam, and later into Naval HaCarmeli. Balaam, who was a snake-charmer, had power only in his mouth to curse people, and when Balaam was killed it was with a single rock something domem [literally meaning ‘silent’] — to atone for the charming he did with his mouth. (Shar HaGilgulim 22)

From Shar Gilgulim we learn, Baba ben Buta the Chasid was a student of the elder Shammai. All of his life he daily brought a Doubtful Transgression Offering. Rav Sheshet was blind. When he studied Torah he was joyous and he would say, “Rejoice my Nefesh! Rejoice my Nefesh!”, Baba ben Buta  returned as the reincarnation of Rav Sheshet in order to complete some tikun that was required of him. Since King Herod had taken out the eyes of Baba ben Buta, therefore he Rav Sheshet was also blind, as is known. In Atbas”h the letters that spell Baba change into the letters that spell Sheshet. A person cannot do complete teshuva as it should be done until they know their Soul Root and previous gilgulim of their soul. The Zohar, when discussing the verse, “Tell me, you whom my soul loves” (Song of Songs 1:7) is adamant about this. It discusses there at length that a person needs to know the identity of their soul, why it has come into this world, and what it needs to rectify. A person’s “tikun” depends upon performance of all the positive mitzvot and occupation with Torah. As he increases these things, his “tikun” becomes complete, and he merits to achieve all the parts of his soul. What one does and the amount and level of mitzvahs he performs determines how many sparks will be revealed to him. The level of the sin or the amount of sins determines how many sparks will be withdrawn from him. Blemish is a result of mitzvot that were not fulfilled and by of transgression of the 365 prohibitions of the Torah. Occupation with Torah acquires Ruach from Yetzirah. Mitzvot that one can perform, such as tzitzit, tefillin and the like. A person must go out of his way to occupy himself with all the “mitzvoth” as much as his intellect is capable of grasping. He must seek out a rabbi to teach it to him. If God creates the circumstances to fulfill any of the commandments and one did not fulfill them, then they will have to reincarnate to fulfill which ever one they could have fulfilled but did not. If he does not do them, then he must necessarily return to reincarnate many times, until he fulfills all of them. With a few exceptions as one is not obligated to divorce his wife, as everyone knows, for this the altar sheds tears. (Shar HaGilgulim  4, 11)

When a man must reincarnate and dies, and after that a son is born to him, since his wife was expecting when he died, the man himself reincarnates into the body of the son, this is the secret of yibum. This is the secret of Abaye the amora who was born after his father died. His father reincarnated into his son’s body, which is why he is called Abaye meaning his father, since his father reincarnated into him. (Shar HaGilgulim  29)

The name Adam (Alf, Dalet, Mem) contains the first letters of the names Adam, David, and Mashiah. According to the teachings of the Holy Ar”i, Adam becomes David who will finally be reincarnated as the Messiah, as indicated by the fact that the initial letters of Adam David Messiah (alp, dalet, mem) spell Adam (אָדָם). All were contained within the soul of Adam.

May we merit to see such revelation soon with the coming of mashiach and building the Holy temple quickly in our days in rachamim.

DEEP TEACHING ON REINCARNATION (GIGUL)

THIS IS TRANSLATED FROM THE WRITINGS OF MOSHE CHAYIM LAZATTO (HE WAS A INCARNATION OF MOSES)

The main thing of Nanhaga (Divine guidance of the worlds) is involved in “gilgullim” (reincarnation of souls). There are 2 kinds of gilgullim of “Nashamot” (souls).

1) According to the actions of man, “gilgul” is given for his tikun (correction)

Souls need to work hard to fill lackings, and make a complete “tikun”. To each is a different “nanhaga”. These are the “gillgulim” of (within) Mattatro”n. The garment of the Shechinah (Divine Presence). All these gillgulim in Matto”t need to fix their six corners (emotional sefirot-Ruach). To do this they must become the aspect of a “servant or slave of God”.

(most incarnations are like this)

2) There are Nashamot (Intellectual souls) that gilgul to refine the Malchut (The Divine Presence in the earth). This is as the Avot (Abraham, Issac and Jacob), Noach and his sons. These are gillgulim for nanhaga, not to fix themselves, but the whole world. This is gilgul in the aspect of the Shechinah.

There are gilgul of and from the upper source (Moch Stima) of Adam and from the 2nd brain (avir and skull). Moshe and the Avot go out from here. From here is “chuk” (rulings) of gilgul involving all aspects, what will be born, according to the needs of the time.

There are times when things are not in tikun. When there is not merit to Yisrael, and their sadeek (Holy men) does not rule. It is like the connection is broken, God forbid. Then by the mercy of Heaven there is another connection made in a hidden way to help Yisrael. Then Z”a and Nakavah both descend to dress in Matto”t who is their servant. This is hidden below in a angel that includes all powers of angels. He is the sar (prince) of all angels. To him is all nanhaga of the world, he is called “Sar Olam” (prince of the world). This is the first and ancient Matto”t servant of Hashem. He is in the form of the likeness above. All that there is in the sefirot, there is in his powers. To him are all orders of the markava, but they are all disconnected. As there is not Godliness (below). He works for the needs to sustain the world, and recieves flow from Zu”n. By Zu”n in zivug dressing in him. Then his Markava is assembled, and he can provide for the needs of the world. For its minimal maintainance. But there is not seen there “ahavat Yisrael” or God (with this flow, providence). There is only what is needed of God’s concealed guiding of the world. God descends in hideness. This is like Matto”t is like the name of his Master, the name Sd”y. The secret of covenant of assembly. In the secret of connecting Israel, in this he does not (cannot) rule. Matto”t is completed in his own place, he takes power of the upper sadeek, to make zivug of Hashem. But this is all in hiddeness.

The upper yesod (foundation, gateway of energy) includes many supernal Hvyh in great power. For making zivig of Hashem. They are the secret of flow going in great love, all in the secret of supernal names. The orders of the powers and guidance of Matto”t includes many names of “temurah” ( letter exchanges) they all dress in their markava of Adon”y. This is the Markava of Yhv”h, to this markava the other side has no portion in. It is for Yisrael to build, assemble supernal construction. The world was only made to flow Kidusha, spreading out the Shechinah below. But the otherside rules by yetzer hora in the world, its damage and (control of ) the nations, and all that is enjoined in the Markava of Matto”t. As it guides nahaga in Klipot noga, which is “chol” (non Holy), sending flow to the stars then to this world. Even if in Matto”t klipot inhibit flow, a Sadeek does rule by it in minuchah (Shabot rest), without having to dress in klippa. or difficulty. On Shabot the sadeek rules, He is malchut (and he is from the Malchut). All Nanhaga below is the malchut. The refined Malchut is “minuchah” (Shabot Rest), as it needs no work. She actualizes the Yh”v. But the Nanhaga of Matto”t is called here “work”. It is nanhaga that is only as this world (appropriate providence), but all is for tikun of Yisrael (to achieve God’s ultimate purpose of creation). Matto”t was created for nanhaga of the slave Hashem put to do the work of this world. It is in the Malchut (sadeekem). This is the difference between God’s children and his slaves. This is as sadeekem and angels. Sadeekem by love cleave in the shechinah in “zivug” (union) in all their actions. But with Matto”t and the rest of the angels there is no devekut (cleaving) or zivug (joining) at all. They are called standing under the Shechinah raising her. Ruach Hakodesh is the aspect of Nashama, mammash of malchut. It is aspect called Nashama of Sadeek that is involved in all nanhaga. This Malchut joins in the Nashamot of men. Nishmat (souls) of Sadeekem are Ruach HaKodesh and Revelation of Elohut (Godliness). To Nashamot this is the “crowns in the heads”, “delight from ray of the Shechinah”. Without this it is impossible to comprehend Elohut. There are many ways to reach Ruach HaKodesh. There are those who have much and those with little, and to those to whom it is completely hidden. But it is always there to guide Yisrael. All who are fit to have rest upon them as in Tanna DbeEliyahu “Even a slave can have rest upon him Ruach haKodesh. So it is always written “do not work as a slave (he is the lowest level). Ruach HaKodesh is received according to one’s yichus (relationship) to Malchut . Yichus to the Malchut (above) by the sadeek is according to how refined the Sadeek is in their 6 corners (Ruach, emotional soul). Because of din of Tuma there is not found ruach ha kodesh. It is only found in Nashamot Gadolot (Big Nashamot). But at times for the needs of nanhaga it can descend into lowly Nashamot, as a slave. But not the Nashama of a Sadeek as they have Ruach HaKodesh. Because of this their Nashama is free from having to occupy in such work.

The female slave in parsha mishpatim is the “am haAretz” (common man) that dresses in the good of klippa Noga. The mother, slave and handmaid are souls of Bria, Yetzera and Asiyah. At times a Nashama is sent without a garment in the secret of “Yhv”h is a man of war”. Whether a Nashama is a mother or hand maid the source that is sending this nashama dresses it in angels. This is the secret of the “man Gavrial”, as the source of his (the mans) garment, is in him (this Angel). It, his source is from the side of Givurah so to subdue the other side so that it cannot overcome him. But their Nashama are uniquely from the givurah even before being sent in garment of the angel, so the other side is subdued by him much more than by other souls. But the body of this Nashamah is from the right side. These bodies of the right side illuminate with the light of their nashamot. This is their tikun. While bodies from the left side find tikun in being subdued by their Nashamot. When a Nefesh that was in the first body must return in “gilgul” to fix damages for its own sake. Then its  second body becomes the main one. After death in this world this Nefesh will resurrect only in its second body. At the time for resurrection , each body will take its portion of soul according to the level that was rectified. In the time of the Resurrection of the Dead a body will be wiped out from the world.  if she did not complete all the 248 positive mitzvot with this body and the soul will be resurrection in the body of its last incarnation.  By transgressing a positive mitzvah one causes ה ,  the Malchut of Asiyah to descend and separate from  Tiferet, making it to only descend to the first three of the “kelipot”. So by repentance this can become easy immediately rectified. As the first three sefirot of the “kelipot” can transform to Holiness. A deeper level of transgression causes Tiferet to become disconnected from Bina as well. A even deeper level of transgression is caused  when a person transgresses a positive mitzvah in such a way as to damage bina and cause it to descend to the last three sefirot of the “kelipot”. Even worse than this is when a person transgresses a positive mitzvah in such a way as to damage chochmah, separating it from keter. But even when this happens by “Teshuvah” the  cause the upper ה ,  Bina, to return to  keter, at which time chochmah will ascend with it. Non-believers and those who deny the prophetic authority of the Torah. When a person violates a negative mitzvah, prohibition of the Torah, his “teshuvah” does not evoke immediate forgiveness., but he must wait for Yom Kippur for atonement. This is because this type of sin damages Yetzirah, specifically the level of Tiferet, causing Malchut to separate from Teferet, as well as the six sefirot of Yetzira to also separate from Teferet.. In this class, their Nefesh must reincarnate to rectify this sin and their body is destroyed and lost and it does not arise in the time of the Resurrection of the Dead After the Resurrection of the Dead, higher new souls will descend from the world of Atzilut.   They are the soul of Adam called “Zehira Ila’a”. This is the secret of what is written in the Zohar, (Pekudei 253a) that from the time the Temple was destroyed, souls have not entered “Heichel Ahava”. When Adam sinned, he lost the “Zehira Ila’ah” which is the levels of Ruach Nashama Chayah and Yechida of the world of Atzilut.  Rather than fall into the kelipot, which are only in the three worlds of BY”A, they were taken up to their places. Thus, only the Nefesh of Atzilut remained with Adam after the sin.  Adam’s sinned  caused the “moach” of dat to descend between the two shoulders of Zeir Anpin, into the upper third of Tiferet, until the chest. There, the “chasadim” separated and went into the right shoulder and the gevurot went into the left shoulder.

The four worlds of ABY”A are identified with, Abba-Atzilut, Imma-Briah, Zeir Anpin-Yetzerah, and Nukvah-Asiyah. There are no kelipot on the level of Aba and Ima, the first three sefirot of Imma , and the levels of keter within Zu”N. With respect to the rest of the levels, the kelipot do attach to and nourish from when people sin. The levels the “kelipot” do not attach to and nourish from are called “Zahira illah” (upper illumination) of “Adam HaRishon”. Except for the Nefesh part of each level there is no nourishment by the “klippot” in the levels of Yechida, Chaya, Neshama, and Ruach of the world of Atzilut;  Abba and Imma of Beriyah; the twenty aspects of keter in the Zu”N of Beriyah, the aspects of keter in Abba, Imma, and Zu”N of Yetzirah and the Abba, Imma, and Zu”N of Asiyah. This is altogether ten partzufim. Each partzuf contains ten sefirot and each sefira itself has ten, making one hundred ketarim of ten partzufim. In turn, each keter has ten sefirot and four upper levels of yechida, chaya, neshama, and ruach. All of this is called “Zihara Illah”, and it is part of that which was completely removed from Adam and ascended to its holy place. There are two levels of “zihara”. The first is “Zihara Illah” of Atzilut, composed of yechida, chaya, neshama, and ruach of the world of Atzilut. The second level is is “Zihara Illah” of BY”A, which incorporates the entire two partzufim of Abba and Imma, that is, the chaya and neshama of the world of  Beriya, and Arich Anpin, or the yechida of Beriya; the four levels of yechida, chaya, neshama, and ruach of each keter from the one hundred ketarim of the ten partzufim from the Zu»N of Beriyah through the Nukvah of Asiyah. All of these are called is “Zihara Illah” of the three worlds of BY»A, as mentioned. These two types of  “Zihara Illah” were completely removed from Adam when he sinned and are called level one. Souls from the “Zihara Illah” include Chanuch, Yosef ha Sadeek, Yoshua ben Nun, Achiya haShalomi, Elishah, Yoshua ben Parachiyah, Yoshua ben Chanina, Yishmoyal ben Elisha, Yosi ben Kisma, Rav Hoshia and Rav Chaninah Saba.

The Prophet Amos was from “Olam Nikudim” from the aspect of the kings who died. They are the 5 Givurot. Rav Tarphon was from the 288 sparks. They are the 5 “givurot” of מנצפ”ך  and “mym nukvin”.

The Rambam was from the left “peah” so he did not merit to the Zohar. While the Ramban was from the right “peah” so he had this merit.

In Moshe are a few sparks from the source of Kayin but his source is Hevel.

Chym Vital writes in Shar gilgulim After Adam sinned the level of Ruach and Neshama of Atzilut were removed from him and flew upward. The Nefesh of Atzilut flew above him, but it did not completely leave him.  Enoch took the “zihara” of Arich, Adam the zihara of Abba, Eve of Imma, Abel of Zeir Anpin, and Cain of Nukvah. I do not know if all of these are considered to be sections of Atzilut, or of BY»A. Further investigation is required.

Not all the souls were equal, since, the limbs that were most affected by the sin of Adam fell deeper into the kelipot than other limbs more distant from the blemish. As a result, some souls pursue sin more than others. The limbs used by Adam to commit the sin fell from him to the corresponding level within “Adam Belial”. There they were enveloped and enclothed by the “kelipot”. Thus, the impact of the sin on a limb determined how deep it fell into the kelipot, since God made them correspond to each other, Adam Bliya’al  also has 248 limbs and 365 tendons. Once  all the souls are separated from “Adam d’kelipa – Adam Belial”, removed through good deeds, “Adam d’kelipa – Adam Belial”will collapse .The souls fallen into the depths of the “kelipot”, into “Adam Belial”, became hidden. Now, when it comes time for one of these soul to come into this world, it cannot immediately leave the depths of the kelipot through some merit of a person in this world. But it must first be included in the level of the “Tzelem” and “Ohr makif”  of three different people from the same root, one after the other. After that, it can enter a body that is born and become a soul on the level of “Ohr pnimi”, which is considered to be its first actual reincarnation. After that, it will reincarnate as many times as it needs to.  As Holiness is the life energy that results from separating from spiritual impurity which is called death. Until all the souls that fell among the kelipot of “Adam Belial” [the despicable man] that are intermixed there from the head unto the feet have been gathered. Mashiach will not be revealed nor will the Jewish people be redeemed. This is what the Zohar says: (Pekudei 258) “Until the feet come to the feet” as it says, “They stood on their legs on that day on the Mount of Olives”. (Zechariah 14:4). All the souls of Kayin are from the 5 givurot of Ima, so they seize in the “klippot” of “Adam Balieal” which is  סיסרא

“gilgulim” (Reincarnation)

Mishpotim Bs”d

Our parsha begins “and these are the judgments that you shall set before them”. Concerning this R. Shimon in the Holy Zohar begins to reveal the secrets of “gilgulim” (reincarnation). Most of this parsha in the Zohar concerns “gilgulim”. Evidently this is a good time to delve into “gilgulim” so let us learn. R. Shimon begins by informing us that the “judgments” referred to in the above verse referred to the punishments involved in one’s incarnation in this world. In general its better not to have to come down here, its better “upstairs”. We learn from Safer Bahir the souls of the wicked can’t leave from here but must “gilgul”.1 The Ar”i teaches that Torah is the source and root of the essence of light of the Nefesh, Ruach, Nashama, Chayah and Yachida. It spreads out in every parzuf. It is light of the Ayn Sof. A man occupied in the Torah gives delight to his creator when he does it for its own sake, and guards the commandments. This man when he leaves this world his soul will find rest and not require “gilgul” (reincarnation).2 In commentary on Zohar on proverbs its taught Man will be forced into ”gilgul” (reincarnation) if he does not learn Kaballah. Not every man has a ”segulah” (help from above) to learn the Kaballah of the Ar”i. One can loose their reward over this. But there is no danger in learning the Kaballah of Rama”k. Every one is obligated to this.3 The Zohar explains that actions of Holiness produce a breath for the soul that is an intercessor for him above. The Holy breath after the body is disposed of becomes a breath giving life. It becomes his ”Yesod”, the gateway to the quality and quantity of the light which his soul lives by and delights. Like a seed sown it guides the departed soul to be bound in the supernal glory of the bundle of life. 

  There are wicked people of whom the verse says, “And may He hurl away the soul of you enemies as one shoots a stone from a slingshot” (Samuel I 25:29); they don’t yet merit to enter  “Gehennom”.  after their deaths to cleanse their sins. Rather, their souls are tossed about as a “stone in a sling” until their sins have been cleansed enough to allow them to enter “Gehenom” for NO MORE THAN twelve months to atone. But by “Kuf Ha Kelah” (stone in a sling) there is no set time for this, sometimes it takes  ten, one hundred, or even one thousand years, depending on to the extent they sinned A secular profane action causes the soul to be cast as a ”stone in a sling” when it leaves this world. (it becomes a ghost) Preventing its accent to Gan Aden. This soul cast as a ”stone in a sling” has no rest. This is the worst punishment. There is a Nefesh that is cut off with its body. There is also a Nefesh that is cut off, but not its body. A Nefesh that has “corait” (cut off) cannot return to its place above that it would of had if it would have been a worthy person in this “gilgul” (incarnation). Its Ruach also has no rest. Its Nefesh also has no Divine pleasure. Its only as any animal.4 A “Nefesh” is given 3 ”gilgulim” to begin ”teshuva” if it is not successful it is then destroyed from our people and descends to one of the 7 dwelling places of Gehenom to be forgotten for all generations.5 Rav Nachunyah ben Hakana teaches By facing away, ignoring the commandments while in exile one can be “gilgul” as an unclean animal6. When a person sins, he draws the “sitra achra”, called death, towards him. Therefore the “kelipa” cannot leave him until he dies, when the flesh rots in the soil. Then the kelipa that was tied to him leaves along with the “kelipa” from the “zuhama” that was imparted to Adam and Eve.
Now you can understand the concept of “chibut hakever” [torments of the grave]. After a person dies and is buried in the dust of the earth, four angels immediately arrive and deepen his grave to the height of the man, as it says in treatise Perek Chibut Hakever. Then they restore his soul to his body just like during his lifetime, since the kelipa remains connected to both.
Then these angels take him by the corners and shake and beat him with fire. Just as a garment is held from the ends and shaken to remove dust, until the “kelipa” leaves him completely. This is called “chibut hakever”, which is like the beating and shaking of a garment. They deepen the grave in order to create an area within which to shake and beat him. If one is jealous regarding spiritual matters, he will not require much of “chibut HaKever”. However, if one is jealous regarding worldly matters his bones will have to rot to be cleansed of their attachment to the “kelipot”. One who leaves this world and does not require any punishment. The first is that from the moment he dies he ascends in the secret of “mym nukvin”  through the Yesod of Imma, which is called Olam Habah. This  group is called “Benei Olam Habah”. In other words, he is like Zeir Anpin, who is called Ben [a son of] Imma. For this reason a righteous person is called a “Benei Olam Habah”. There are other Righteous people who are not fitting to ascend by themselves and they must combine with a soul more righteous than their own and this is why the Sages say “Every Jew has a portion in the world-to-come”. (Sanhedrin 91a). The “mochin” (consciousness)  called “life of the world-to-come”, are the source of one’s existence in the world to come. It is also called “chayei hamelech” [life of the King]. In the secret of what the Sages say, “All those who wear Tefilin live”. As Tefillin draw this consciousness called  “Chayay hamelech”.They draw the life source that flows to the world-to-come while even in this world, which is Imma.

Chym Vital writes in “Shar Gigullim” that I heard from my teacher that all who are buried on Friday from the fifth hour onward do not have to undergo “chibut hakever” torments of the grave. This is because the holiness of Shabbat itself separates the “kelipa” from these people without any pain. This is the secret of ‘something extra’ on the sixth day (Ex. 16:22) — for from the fifth hour onward the holiness of Shabbat begins to shine. Every soul has a specific name based upon its level within the limb from which it was hewn. Likewise, each spark from the side of the “kelipot” has its own name. And so the “yetzer hara” of one person is not like the “yetzer hara” of another person. After someone is born and named by his father and mother, their name is not by chance the name is given by God. This name itself is imprinted above on the holy throne, as is known. Just as there is for a person a pre-determined name from the side of Holiness, likewise there is an established name from the side of the “kelipot”, the “yetzer hara” that enters the person at birth. There are people who have only a Nefesh from Malchut of Asiyah of the “kelipot”, and there are people who have an entire NR”N from the “kelipot”.

The Aor Yakar teaches that the names of men show concerning their eternal qualities. It also shows concerning one’s magidim (angelic teachers). From names it possible to determine the number of ones gilgulim. By arousal there is raised mym nukvin (lower arousal) and there descends mym duchrin (upper arousal) and accordingly is their magid . It was like this Rebbe Shimon saw Rav Hamnuna. He came down to teach R. Shimon secrets of gilgulim in our parsha.7

Many books have been written explaining the teachings on the subject of ”reincarnation” or gilgul (גִלְגוּל). These books explain when and how reincarnation takes place and give details regarding many soul-roots and how we find them reincarnated in the Bible and afterwards in the time of the sages, and even in latter generations. The purpose of “gilgul” is to rectify blemishes of previous lifetimes and each successive incarnation manifests and rectifys new, different dimensions of the same soul. Know, that if a person merits obtaining his Nefesh (Animal soul), Ruach (Divine emotional soul), and Neshama (Soul of Divine intellect), and then blemishes them through sin, he will have to be reincarnated to rectify the damage. When he returns in a gilgul with his Nefesh and he rectifies it, his Ruach will not join him. This is because his Ruach remains blemished, and it cannot rest upon a rectified Nefesh. Therefore, his [blemished] Ruach will be reincarnated into another person, joining up with the Nefesh of a convert. The Neshama will likewise do the same. And the Nefesh that was rectified will receive a rectified Ruach of a righteous person who was similar to him in some of the particular good deeds that he performed. It will actually take the place of his own Ruach. Similarly, if he rectifies his [blemished] Ruach completely, then he will receive a Neshama from some righteous person, which will act in place of his own Neshama. This is the esoteric meaning of what the sages say: “Righteous people are greater in death than during their lifetimes (Sanhedrin 47a).” Now, after this person dies, his [own rectified] Nefesh will go together with this Ruach [of a righteous person] and through it [i.e. the Ruach] receive the blessing fitting for itself. It works in the same way for the Neshama with respect to the Ruach. After a person dies, they return in a gilgul and achieve tikun together.

According to the teachings of the Holy Ar”i, Adam becomes David who will finally be reincarnated as the Messiah, as indicated by the fact that the initial letters of Adam David Messiah (alef, dalet, mem) spell Adam (אָדָם). All were contained within the soul of Adam.

May we merit to see such revelation soon with the coming of mashiach and building the Holy temple quickly in our days in rachamim.

With respect to the chasadim of Abba, they do not stand in the yesod of Abba, since it is a very narrow place. Therefore, they go out and surround yesod from without, which means that the chasadim of  Abba stand within yesod of Imma and clothe the yesod of Abba. Unlike the gevurot, which lack unification, whether in yesod of Abba or Imma. Therefore, it was not possible to establish one teacher for all of them, for there is no one yesod unique to all of them who could teach them.

From what my teacher once answered, I could see that this is not really the reason. For I once asked him regarding this, suggesting that two teachers could have existed corresponding to the two  yesodot, but he wouldn’t answer me — seemingly because he did not want to reveal everything regarding this matter, though I don’t know why.

From another world-for real !

Filed under: Garden of Eden, Riencarnation, spirits, worlds, Zohar

THE BEGINNING OF manuscript IS MISSING.

What we have here is all that we merit, the rest of the ancient text has been concealed from this generation

They spoke with each other what they could not speak before this. They emerged from that opening and sat in the garden underneath the trees. They said to each other, Since we were here and saw all this, if we die here, we will most certainly attain the World to Come. They sat down. A sleep fell upon them. In the meanwhile, the one appointed (a supernal Holy spirit) came and woke them up. He told them to get up and go into the orchard outside. They went out. They noticed the scholars of the word of GOD, who talked of this verse: ”In this wilderness shall they be consumed” (Numbers 14:35), but not in another place, THAT IS THAT THEY WILL MERIT THE WORLD TO COME. ”And there they shall die” , but not in another place, MEANING THAT THEY WILL HAVE THE LIFE OF THE WORLD TO COME. That concerns the bodies – THAT EVEN IN THIS WORLD, THEY WILL ONLY DIE FROM THE ASPECT OF THE BODY – but not their souls, WHICH WILL BE similar to the denizens of the Garden, MEANING THE SOULS WILL MERIT THE GARDEN OF EDEN.

As there are souls which as its written in the bible are “cut off” :

“For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for its life; therefore I said to the people of Israel, You shall not eat the blood of any kind of flesh; for the life of all flesh is its blood; whoever eats it shall be cut off.” (lev 17)

This is referring to even in the upper world. The merit of the soul is given to another and it as a individual soul ceases to exist. It will not be given a chance at another incarnation. It has wasted all its chances.

The appointed one told them to leave. They left with him. He asked them, Did you hear something on that level? They said, We heard that a voice was saying that whoever stops shall be stopped, whoever curtails shall be curtailed and whoever curtails shall be prolonged. He said to them, Do you understand what this means? They said no. He said to them, Did you see that great eagle and that child that picks grasses? This was Rabbi Ila’i from Netzivin, he and his son. They arrived here and they saw him and his boy and this cave. As soon as they entered into this darkness, they were not able to stand it and died.

That child, his son, stands daily in front of Betzalel (the man who by the Holy spirit made the tabernacle in the desert), when he descends from his high School, and said to him three things, prior to Betzalel’s divulgence of the concealed secrets of wisdom. All his sayings are concealed secrets, since ”neither has the eye seen, that Elohim, beside You” (Isaiah 64:3). That is what is said: Whoever stops, shall be stopped means whoever ceases from the sayings of Torah in order to speak of vain matters, his life will be ended from this world. His judgment remains for the World to Come. Whoever curtails shall be curtailed means that whoever cuts short the Amen and does not extend it leisurely, BUT SAYS IT ABRUPTLY, shall have his life shortened in this world. Whoever curtails shall be prolonged means that whoever said Echad (Eng. ’One’) must hurry with the Aleph OF ECHAD and shorten its pronunciation, and not dally with this letter at all. Whoever acts this way shall have his life extended. (this is referring to the mediation on the oneness of God in all creation)

THE APPOINTED ONE told them, Go out from here. You are righteous AND DESERVING A HIGHER LEVEL. They emerged. The appointed one presented them with a rose, WHICH IS THE SECRET OF manifestation of the Divine presence IN THE ASPECT OF Divine creativity and inspiration. When they left, the opening of the cave was concealed and was not visible at all. They noticed the eagle, WHICH IS THE SECRET OF THE FACE OF AN EAGLE in the Divine Chariot (see the vision of Ezekial) from which souls are emanated and other energy, which descended from a tree and entered into a different cave. They inhaled the scent of the rose, AS THE ILLUMINATION OF Divine wisdom IS CALLED SCENT, and entered there. (certain scents can effect your mind) They discovered the eagle on the mouth of the cave. He told them, Enter friends, the truly righteous, since I have not felt the gladness of having company since the day that I have been here, except through you.

They entered another orchard, MEANING TO ANOTHER LEVEL, and the eagle was with them,. When they arrived at those scholars of the Mishnah (a compilation of ancient oral teaching explaining the Bible) , the eagle converted back to the shape of a man, MEANING TO THE SECRET OF THE FACE OF A MAN with a glowing robe like them, and sat together with them. He said to the MISHNAH SCHOLARS that were seated, Give honor to the Mishnah scholars that arrived here, since their Master shows them great wonders. One of them said to them, Have you a sign THAT YOU ARE WORTHY OF BEING HERE? They replied, Yes. They slipped out two roses and smelled them, THEREBY ALLUDING TO their Holy actions AND Divine understanding they possessed THAT ARE COMBINED TOGETHER IN THE SECRET OF THE TWO ROSES. They said, Be seated, deans of the school. Be seated, truly righteous men. They held on to them and they sat. At that time, they learned from them thirty Divine ’laws’ that they did not know of before, and other secret meanings in the Torah.

They then returned to the sages, and they found them studying and saying: ”I had said, ’You are angels (Heb. Elohim), all of you sons of the most High, Nevertheless, you shall die like men, and fall like any prince ’” (Psalms 82:6), MEANING ”I had said” during the time when you acted before listening, for “You are Elohim…” However, since you were drawn after your bad inclination, “nevertheless, you shall die like a man…” (Ibid. 7), just like the death of man brings him to dust in order to erase the bad inclination in his corpse. It is that bad inclination that dies and decays within.

Rabbi Ila’i said to them: truly righteous men, enter and see, since permission is given to you to proceed to the area where the veil is spread. Praised is your lot. They rose and entered a place where there were scholars of secrets, whose faces were bright as the sunlight. They said: Who are these? He said to them: These are the Agadah scholars, and they properly see the light of the Torah, daily. They remained and listened to several new illuminations in the Torah, but were not given authority to join with them.

Rabbi Ila’i told them to enter another area and look around. They entered into another garden and also saw, BESIDES OTHER THINGS, people digging graves. Immediately they die, and immediately reincarnate with bright holy bodies, SINCE THESE WERE THE DECEASED OF THE DESERT. They said to him, What is this? He replied to them, They do this every day and, when they die, the evil filth which they received before immediately decays. They quickly rise up with bright new bodies, with these holy bodies that they had when they stood on Mount Sinai, exactly as you see THEM, since all stood on Mount Sinai with bodies totally free of dirt. As soon as they drew upon themselves the Evil Inclination, they again had other bodies other than the bodies they had prior to that, strange bodies – MEANING THAT THE FILTH OF THE SERPENT WAS AGAIN UPON THEM. About this, it is written: ”And the children of Yisrael stripped themselves of their ornaments by the Mount Horeb” (exudus 33:6).

The souls that heard the voice of God on Mount Sinai became refined to a tremendous level , but when they sinned by the golden calf , which is a mystery in of itself they fell from that level. They lost their spiritual “ornaments” they got at Mount Sinai. It is possible to attain these “ornaments” once again while in this world through great spiritual works, and behavior of selflessness and self sacrifice.

A voice stirred and said, Go and congregate there. Aholiav stands on his spot and there are chairs before him. Suddenly, everything disappeared and they saw nothing. They remained alone under the trees in the garden. They noticed another door. They entered there, saw a chamber and sat down there. There were two youths there. They raised their eyes and saw a dwelling that was embroidered in all the kinds of artistry and colors existing in the world. On it was spread a curtain of sparkling light, at which the eyes were not able to gaze. Beyond that, they saw nothing.

ALSO IN OUR “PARSHA” IS THE “EGLA ARUFAH”

The final verses of Parashat Shoftim discuss the “Egla Arufa”  ritual performed when a murder victim is discovered outside a city, and the killer was not known. Targum Yonatan ben Uziel  (21:8) writes that after the town’s leaders fulfilled their “Egla Arufa”  obligations, killing of a calf for atonement.

Then a  swarm of worms would emerge from the mouth of the carcass, and the worms would crawl from the site of the  “Egla Arufa” until the home of the murderer, thereby miraculously solving the crime and identifying the criminal.

Chanukah  בס”ד                     

  Chanukah represents a pattern, a cycle where the Jews are subjected to  gentile government influences who hope that the Jews will forget the Torah. However, at the end they are victorious over those who wish to make them forget the Torah and there is then given birth to a renewed Yisrael. Chanukah is about revolution. It is a reminder to stand up against the oppression. Especially when the nations values and politics have overcome the government of the Jewish people living in the land of Israel. It is a time to establish a truly Torah government. Israel has a mission to bring the world to awareness of God. Thus Israel is called a “Nation of Priests” in the Bible. This can only be accomplished when the Jewish people have sovereignty over the Land of Israel and they govern according to God’s will as found in the Torah.

The Makabees’ decision to fight against the mighty Greeks was irrational, sometimes we are dependent on irrational and illogical moves. As Gods “Ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts”. Heading out to seemingly-unbeatable wars, must have looked to others like suicide missions but The God’s miracles transcend the bounds of nature and shows that by our connection and faith in the Creator of the Universe that even in situations that seem hopeless as Chanukah our faith in The God will lead us to the ultimate victory, please God. The victory of Chanuka requires pride, sacrifice and resolve. You must live its virtues not just talk about them in prayer. They are not a thing of the past they are powers of Chanukah. Compromise is a weakness that victors cannot afford. Freedom is reserved for those who fight for it. Standing up against all the odds is the Macabee way. Standing up for the Divine truth. Chanuka is a time to remember the price of victory. It is not cheap!

We can light all the Chanuka lights that we want but we must remember that the purpose of light is to cancel out darkness. We will never cancel out darkness or defeat evil all the while that we lack the commitment and resolve and the sacrifice necessary to win the day. All our Chanuka lights will be nothing but hollow and empty shells if we fail to remember what it is that they are supposed to really be. Each generation has its Chanukah battles against the Greek secularism that tries to nullify the Jewish Torah life style. In each generation the multitudes of Yisrael hover at the brink of spiritual devistation, God forbid. So it is hard to understand how a person can consider himself serious in his relationship with God and his Jewish identity and yet one does not feel for the suffering of  the Shechinah (Divine Presence) and the state of “Klal Yisrael” (The Nation of Israel). How can one’s  relationship with God be limited to his own selfish interests ? It can’t be only about you?

Chanukah is a time of ever increasing light. This is seen and accomplished through the service of Chanukah which includes lighting of the “Menorah”. The main service of Chanukah is the illumination of the darkness of night with the manorah in increasing intensity from 1 to 9 lights including the ”shamash”. It was on the first night of Chanukah the 25th of kislev that Antiocos made the temple into a shrine for idolatry. On that day he placed a idol in the Temple’s Holy of Holies and did lewd sexual acts there. They defiled Holy things. This was the darkest moment when the house of GOD became a place unfit for his dwelling .This was the climax of the decent of the Jewish people led by their ”high society” as they slid down to the depth of spiritual depravity being absorbed in the ”upper class” (Greek) values of their day, which was called HELLenism. The enemy may have stimulated the decline of Yisrael from outside yet the real enemy was within, it was ourselves. We allowed non-Torah values to infect us to the point that a Cohen Gadol (High Priest) was placed in the temple who had values opposite that of the Torah.

The enemy was within but salvation came from without and within as only a small group of Cohaniem who were living in the hills were able to bring about the spiritual redemption of our people. Reclaiming the Holy Temple, with the miracle of the oil, and the physical miraculous victory where our enemies were concurred. On Chanukah we went from the darkest darkness of our souls, spiritually and physically captured under the dominion of strangers, yet we came to witness miracles and salvation. The Greeks deliberately and methodically defiled all the oil in the Temple. They purposefully wanted to stamp out the means for Yisrael to serve God. The existence and discovery of one undefiled cruse – despite the aggressive efforts of the Greeks – was a miracle in and of itself. The Ben Ish Chai says that in the month of Kislev and especially on Chanuka we can pray for miracles.

The ruling in Israel of the Hasmoneans began during the rein of Antiocus the 4th, who was also called אפיפנס the King of Syria and Talmy Philamtor King of Egypt. They ruled for 132 years till Herod, the Edomite slave . This was from 143-36 Bce.

The Megillat Antiochus tells us that the Hasmonean Kohanim “They found only one cruse of oil which was sealed with the insignia of the Holy Kohen from the time of Samuel the prophet.” Know, that just as this jar of Holy oil was hidden all those years, so to no Jew is ever lost from the collective entity called “Canneset Yisrael” (The Jewish supernal community). Though they may have strayed so far from the path and ways the God showed the nation of Israel so many years ago. As the hidden wisdom received at the Sinai experience when we received the Torah so many years ago is still deep inside every Jewish soul who stood at that fateful day at Sinai. Know, these deeps spiritual roots can never be blotted out though if one contaminates their soul enough by transgressing the Torah it takes a considerable effort to relight the lamp of their Jewish soul.

It was also a miracle in and of itself that this one cruse of oil was not seen by the Greeks and destroyed. Like the light of “Aor Ganuz” (the hidden light) radiated by by the lights of Chanukah which are only perceived by those who merit so and others cannot see it. So too the Greeks could not see this cruse of oil so could not destroy it !

We came to witness oil that burned miraculously. That which had the physical potential to burn for one day burned for eight. This infinite quality of oil represents the permutation of the spiritual quality of oil, which from kabalah we learn is ” chuchmah ” (creative inspiration), right into this physical world.

It is known that ”chuchmah” (Divine wisdom-creative power) is above space and time. Thus we see its revelation in this physical world “mamash”. The oil from the Manora allows us to Contemplate the surrounding lights and עליוןרצון (supernal will). We know rabbi Moshe Chym Lazatto says this light comes around every year for those who are there to receive it, blessed are those who reach this time. Now the ”Chuchmah” (Divine Wisdom-creativity) dresses itself in our dedication as Chanukah means dedication. Chanukah being the celebration of our dedication to Holiness, which is during the time of ”chanuc” (dedication) of the alter as described in the Torah in the book of ”Bamidbar” (Numbers), the dedication of the temple by King Salomon, the dedication of the temple by Yehuda Macabbe, and today our personal dedication to the Holy Blessed One NOW.

Our personal dedication to the Torah is the absolute fixing of the present exile of Edom (the west ), which is rooted in Yavan (greek culture ), which is the source of the hellinism that Yehuda Macabee rebelled against. Yavon is the same spelling as Zion, except for missing the letter צ ’sawde”. A sawdeek is represented by Yosef ha Sadeek. He represents the sefira yesod. As taught by rabbi Shimon bar Yochi yesod is 9th of the sefirot, it is as the 8 Chanukah lights and the ”shamash”. They are paralleled by the 7 lights of the manorah in the temple, and the bulb where the branches meet. Thus it is said by kindling the Chanukah manorah the manorah in the Holy Temple is lit. On Chanukah there shines the lights of ס”ג (light of Divine understanding) to Z’a (source of the Ruach, emotional soul). ס”ג =חנה and יהו”ה (is Z’a)=וכ together is חנוכה . Every aspect can be lit up by נר (lamps) of chanucah. Thus נר is gematria of the Yichudim (unifications) of אהי”ה אלהי”ם אדנ”י each with יהו”ה = נר.

The Holy Ar”i teaches that the light of Chanuka has the power to illuminate the lowest and darkest places. Therefore the law concerning the Chanukah “Manorah” states that it can be lit as low as ten tefachim (handsbreadth) from the ground.

There are 5 aspects of “Erev Rav” according to the Zohar, they are called “Nifalim, Geborim, Anakim. Rafiam and Amalakim” these correspond to the 5 times ביד in the prayer for Chanukah in the “Amida”. 1)The “geborim” correspond to were given ביד “chalshim”, 2)“The many” were given ביד “the few” corresponding to “Rafiam”, 3) “Rashiam” were given ביד “Sadeekem” corresponds to “Anakim”. 4) The inpure were given ביד “pure”, the impure correspond to the Nifalim. These include Azza and Uzzial5) “the strange ones were given ביד of those who occupy in your Torah” Strange ones referring to “Amalakim”. Also the יד cooresponds to the 14 evil time all 5 aspects the Erev rav want to bring upon Yisrael.

Shar Yoseph teaches that we talk in the Chanukah addition of the Amida about how the Hasmoneans stood up and fought the Greeks, but they never fought Greeks only Syrians. Antiocus was king of Syria and not of Greece. It says “You gave the impure into the hands of the pure”. Who were the “impure”. Impurity does not apply to gentiles. It says “you gave strangers (zarim) in hands of Jews”. If the impure mentioned before was referring to non-Jews this is double “lashon”. Also double “lushon” on תשועה and פרקן. Alsoדביר ביתך ,היכלך . מקשדך are triple “lushon”. And why also “lushon” חצרת קדשך it says we lit candles but they are lit in “hachel Kodesh” ? Why is the miracle of the oil not mentioned ? There is a lot of secrets hinted to in these words.

דביר ביתך corresponds to Nefesh, היכלך corresponds to Ruach. מקשדך corresponds to Nashama. The “kidusha” of Nashama is called “Bait haMikdash”.

The way to subdue “zarim” is by Torah.

“Malchut HaRusha” refers to Malchut of the Klippa. The Hasmoneans fought the Syrians who nourished from the klippa of the Greeks. Yavan has many Holy sparks that fell into them. That is why they present a great danger to us.

We see this by the success of the Erev Rav in our days, as they have uprooted judiasm from “Am Yisrael”. Which is what the nations were unable to do in 2000 years. Damages by the Greeks is greater than any other nation. Since the time of Noach many sparks of “kidusha” have went into the Greeks so it says “Yephet shall dwell in the Tents of Shem”. A Safer Torah written in Greek can be read on Shabot and YomTov. The sages say Greek is a beautiful language. But the sages says its forbidded to call something of the nations beautiful. But this beauty is from the sparks of holiness they have taken. Their philosophers came upon many true things, that are in the Kaballah we have today including the 4 “Yesodot” and “hyuli”. The greatest of them learned from the mouth of David HaMelech. Aristo converted through Shimon HaSadeek. If the war would have been with Syria alone there would not have been the miracles. The greeks desired to uproot the aspect of the nation of Yisreal so there would only be left the aspect of Yaakov. This is “katnut”. Then there would not exist in Yisreal the idea of “Am Segulah” or chosen people. This is why they specifically rulled against Shabot, chodesh and meilah as these are the foundations of the “chosen people”. The midrash teaches us The Greeks also made the Jews write, “God has forsaken you” on all of their ox horns (Berieshis Rabbah 2:4). In ancient times baby bottles were made out of ox horns as their funnel shape was good for this task. Thus, the Greeks tried to force the Jews to raise their children under the influence of denying Hashem. This is why the word “darkness” refers to Greece as they wished to darken the world for religious Jews. The Jews fought back and instead educated their youth to love and be committed to Torah. Some say that the “draidel” was played by children who were learning Torah and needed to fool the Greeks into thinking that they were simply gathered for game tournaments.

There is a verse in Ovadyah that says, “The house of Yaakov will be fire and it will burn the house of Asev which is  straw.” The two letters which comprise the word  קש (straw), are the first letters of the words קנאה (jealousy) and  ) שנאהhatred) the character traits of Asev. The first letters of אהבה and שלום, the character traits of Yaakov, spell the word אש (fire).

  Now we need to be against these “Greeks”, they are the Nashamot of the Erev Rav that are mixed in with the Jewish people. We must stand up Bina of Kidusha called שם , so to be שם הגדול (great name as mentioned in the Amida Chanukah insert). Chuchmah then called “Kodesh” will be שם הגדול subduing the evil. The miracle of Chanukah is caused by Bina called שם הגדול. Chuchmah and Bina in the Shechinah is called עולם The filling of the Shechinah called “Chanukah” (the 25 letter “Yichud” of נר ) this is his שם called the Shechinah. As it says “כה (thus) shall you bless the Children of Yisrael”. Then rises Malchut to Bina. So there are 8 days of Chanukah as Bina is the 8th sefirah from below to above. The Miracles and wonders of Chanukah are by Bina received from the 32 paths of Chuchmah that permeate to the 50 gates of Bina making נפלאות.

Rabbi Ashlag teaches that all 25 Parzufim (divine faces of revelation) come down to Prophets, they being attached to the highest powers.

This all shines on Chanukah. חן (favor) from the revelation of the 8 days of Chanukah is as a Temple offering or ”Brit Mealah” (circucision) which both must wait till the 8th day. We receive זאת (SHECHINAH) Chanukah by the revelation of the oil (Chuhmah) that illuminates making one’s face to Shine. This Shining is חן. This is what one must find in their wife (Shechinah) as said in the end of Gemora Gitten. The כלה (bride) being the Shechinah. This being revealed as the perfection of man. This is the ”Gadlut” (greatness) of Yaakov which is called Yisrael. This is the סלום (ladder) from heaven. This is the ו . In this time of Chanukah ”dedication”, this is accomplished by doing what Yehuda Ha Makaabe stood for rebelling against what Yavan represents which is striving for beauty alone without the discretion or recognition of GOD which, thus the pursuit of beauty becomes completely a reflection of the love of the body, and self love. Thus we see reason for their obsession with sports, the human body the main theme of their visual arts, and there obsession with abstract intellectual thought. All the things have only one end the glorification of one self, this is the ultimate product of the philosophy of the Greeks, but when the letter צ ’sawde’ is added to the word’ Yavan’ (Greek) it becomes Zion. Thus when one adds ’sawde’ representing yesod, the power of making the most complete revelation of GOD out of all things and places. Perfect uprightness ,acting as a sadeek. Then true perfect beauty is realized. So, on Chanukah we need to dedicate to GOD the beauty that which is unique to ourselves as we each have a different face. So our relationship to GOD is a personal thing . It is our personal expression of beauty in Divine service. We see in the writing of our sages so many things called “hadar mitzvah”, which is performing the mitzvah in a way which is more than is required by the letter of the law. This is why Chanukah is called holiday of the Oral Torah. 

When the early commentators discuss as to who should light the Chanukah lights. Tosfot on Gemore Shabbos 21a states that only one person per house should light the Menorah for everyone. Rambam states that each person in the house should light as well. What is so strange here is that normally Ashkenazim follow the tradition of the Tosfos and the Sefardim follow the opinion of the Rambam. However, here, we find the exact opposite. Shulchan Aruch, which is Safardi  follows Tosfos stating that in a Sefardi home only one person should light for everyone! The Rama the Ashkenazi authority  follows Rambam (Sefardi) in stating that each occupant should light their own Menorah. This is so strange.

The reason for the commandment of  lighting Chanukah candles is hinted at by the fact that, the mitzvah of  lighting Chanukah candles is fulfilled by the act of lighting itself. One is “halachically” obligated to recite the blessings over the Chanukah candles even if the candles will not be seen by anyone. Even if there is also a “mitvah” of lighting the Chanukah candles so to publicize the miracle. But, by lighting the Chanukah candles themselves the commandment is fulfilled.

All Yisrael are required to fulfill the 613 commandments of the Torah. Since we don’t have a temple now, may it be rebuilt soon some mitzvot involving temple service and other mitzvot due to our lackings can only be fulfilled by learning about them. All the mitzvot that we do bind us together. This is the fulfillment of the letter of the law but this is not enough, as it says in the Talmud “ if only the letter of the law was fulfilled, no one could exist ”. If one only does the least that is required what kind of love does this express ?.

A mitzvah is a vessel for the love of GOD. A pitcher holds water so has an intrinsic beauty to its form, yet with ornate engravings it becomes something to behold. If this thing is a mitzvah that has become beautified it is truly something to love. Each person needs to express themselves with in the mitzvot with the uniqueness of their Nashama, this is to discover ourselves, and GOD’s great source of light within each of us.

It is a time to manifest עזותהקושה (brazenness of Holiness) against the “sitra achra” (other side). By this is the perfection of the mitzvot. It is by this that we become Holy, which means separate. Each of us establishing our own personal relationship with GOD. As it say in Leviticus ”sanctify yourselves and be holy ”. This being sanctification in the permitted or separation. Such as cutting the bread slightly before blessing or doing a ”Tynet debor” (fast of speech). Not speaking is equal to many fasts of food. It is the uniqueness of the individual that makes the ultimate fixing for the creation. It is this individuality that is the complete fixing against the exile of Edom. As they want conformity, a lack of individuality , every one to conform to a certain standardization. As taught by Rabbi Kahana in Pesicta Edom the offspring of Yavan (Greek values) tries to push Yisrael off the Torah path to conform to its values ” be like every one else ”. The perfection of the commandments defeats the darkness of exile. It is this dedication that is required. Now lets look specifically at how the klipa (evil) of Yavan Edom attacks.

The Hellenists wanted to destroy our spiritually, and we commemorate this redemption. Yet, this victory does not guarantee our future. Each generation has to fight its own battles againt the other side,each in its own way.

In the era of Chanukah the Greek kings made the religion of the Jews illegal and took their money and their daughters. In 143 Antiocus אפיפנס went from Egypt to Syria by way of Jerusalem and stole the Temple vessels and appointed מנלאוס as Cohen Gadol so to change the religion of Isreal and to build אצטדען (stadium) of Jerusalem. He sent Cohaniam in the middle of their service in the Temple out to meet his friends. So that the service in the Temple would be discontiued. In 139 army messengers of “Antiocus” who made new rulings forbidding observance the Rosh Chodesh (new moon), Shabot ,and circumcision . Chodesh being sanctification in time, Shabot being sanctification in spirituality through action, and circumcision sanctification in the most physical our bodies. It is these institutions that Yavan chose to strike at as they are at the root of our service to GOD. by observance of rosh chodesh we make known our time belongs to GOD. With shabbot we realize the spiritual impact of our actions which we might have thought were in consequential, such as turning on a light. While the circumcision Yavan fought against actually represents the sanctification of GOD with our bodies. That the most physical things we are involved in should be dedicated to divine will.

It was in the year 3591 169 BCE, around 160 years after the Greeks conquered Eretz Yisrael, Antiochus IV Epiphanes began oppressing the Jews. Under his rule, the Greeks plundered the holy vessels of the Temple, breached the walls of Jerusalem, murdered thousands of Jews, and enslaved many others. In 3593 (167 BCE), Antiochus decreed that the Jews must forsake the Torah and its” mitzvot”  and worship idols. He made it a capital crime to perform “mitzvot”, abolished the sacrificial service in the Temple, and turned the Temple into a place of idolatry. Torah scrolls were torn and burned. Antiochus’ soldiers went from town to town forcing the Jews to eat pork and erect an altar for idol worship. They prohibited the practice of brit “mila” and Jewish women who insisted on circumcising their sons were executed. As a result of these decrees, many pious Jews fled to the wilderness, caves, or other countries; and many were murdered in sanctification of God’s name. Later on, the Greeks returned to Eretz Yisrael in greater numbers, conquered Jerusalem, and put Hellenized Kohanim in charge of the Temple. However, in order to avoid increasing tensions with the Jews, they abolished the evil decrees and allowed the Jews to observe the Torah and the mitzvot. But this did not stop the rebellion; the Hasmoneans continued to fight against the Greeks and Hellenism. The war effort had ups and downs,

The Greeks were great astrologers, they worshiped the stars. So they ruled specifically against Shabot , Chodesh and Brit Meilah so that Jupiter would rule through mars and saturn in Kislev. For this reason they occupied the Temple on the 15 of Kislev. And on the 25th of Kislev they put the Idol of Zeus Olympus in the Holy of Holies as he corresponds to Jupiter and they offered up a pig which corresponds to mars, which is the planet of the Greeks. It was by this flow they thought to war against Yisrael. Mars is the planet of Asev, Pig is in the “mazel” of mars. Mars is over wars and spilling of blood by preventing “brit meilah” the Greeks hoped to preventing Yisrael from taking power from Mars. They sought to prevent Rosh Chodesh thereby preventing Yisreal’s connection with the “memunah” over set days which is the Moon. The moon rules over sickness of the body. During the month of Kislev there is a overpowering of Chesed of Hashem by Jupiter whose light shines making these days of Joy.

It’s said by Rashi that Yaakov went back across the river to pick up the small bottles that were filled with oil for Chanukah that he had left there. This oil was oil made from the olives of the olive branch brought back to Noah by the dove after the flood. It was when doing this that Yaakov came across the supernal angel of Edom (the west ), and he wrestled with him and won at Bait Ael which illudes to the place of the Holy temple. This shows us by the power of Chanukah we can concur the exile of Edom. As yaakov did fulfilling the verse “ I will punish the Hosts on high “. The threat of Yaakov getting the Chanukah oil was enough to arouse the angel of Asev, Edom to attack him.  It is interesting that a verse there states: “When the angel saw that he could not win, he hit Yaakov in his כף ירחו” (hollow of his thigh”. (Berieshis 22:26) It is to say the least interesting that the words “כף ירחו” (his thigh)  ties directly into Chanukah. The word כף with its letters reversed spells פך, (jug). This is the exact word used in the Gemara Shabbos 21b when describing the Chanukah miracle. “The Jew defeated the Greeks and found one פך (jug) of pure  of oil, that was still intact and sealed by the Kohen Gadol. This again seems to hint that the damage the angel of Asev did to Yaakov can be fixed completely on Chanukah. Its also explained that these small jars of oil that Yaakov went back to get represent the last sparks that we need to refine and elevate  in fulfilling our Divine mission of fixing the vessels that shattered thus revealing God in the material world. Each person is allocated ‘Divine ‘sparks’ (spiritual energy) they need to fix that are embedded in our material possessions and everything else that comes our  lifes such as our homes, relationships, furniture, work, car, food, entertainment, activities, travel destinations, our thoughts, speech and actions. You are responsible to discover these sparks and their “tikun” so to refine and reveal these sparks uniting them in Holiness. This is done by directing all your activities to a higher, spiritual purpose. It is this that the “other side” found threatening !

Its also written concerning Yakov and containers of oil that Yakov after his vision of the ladder on Mount Moria built a monument in honor of the event. He sanctified it by anointing it with oil. This oil Yaakov found in a small container he found inside one of the stones he put together as a pillow when he had his ladder dream. This container of oil Yaakov took with him. It has the power of not diminishing in quantity even if it is used it says in the Yalkut Ruvaini. This seems very similar to the oil of the Chanukah miracles. Which also burned for 8 days when there was only enough for one day.

A total of 36 candles are burned on Chanukah. “Yaakov avinu” spent a total of 36 years in exile from the time he left Yitzhak and Rivkah, his father and mothers house. He spent 14 years at the Yishivah (school) of Shem and Ever, before going to the house of Lavan. At Lavan’s house Yaakov work 14 years for Lavan so he could marry Rachel and Leah. He worked a additional 6 years making his fortune and fathering 11 of his children, as Benyamin was born in the land of Israel. It took him 2 years to travel back to Aretz Yisrael.

 Chanukah itself first happened 36 centuries ago, in 3622 or 138 bce, the beginning of the 37th century. 36 centuries had all ready passed. Moses was born 36 years after the slavery in Egypt began. 36 seems to have alot to do with Chanukah. לאה is gematria 36. Rachel Yaakov’s wife was 36 when she died.

There are 36 offenses in the Torah for which one incurs “corait” (cut off).

Sni luchot ha brit teaches that on Chanukah if one lights the Manorah outside His door and a spark flies to the street burning hay on a wagon. The owner of the Manorah is not liable to damages. It is the function of the Jewish people to destroy the decendents of Asev. The sparks flying out into the public domain do this. But such is only permitted in its proper time, sparks flying into the street and damaging not on “chanukah” is a crime and one must then pay damages. Hastening the redemption led to the premature death of 20,000 of the tribe of Efriam, when they left Egypt early.

Also know, in Gemara  Shabbos page 22a we find  the story and laws of Chanukah right next to the story of the throwing of Yosef into the pit before his sale by his brothers!

Another matter we need to look at is what it means to us that on Chanukah that Asev can only be defeated when Yosef is with Yehuda. Its written “These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren” (Gen 37:2). What is this connection between Jacob and Joseph. When Ya’akov saw all these chiefs  of Asev whose names are written shortly before enumerating the descendants of Yosef he said wonderingly: “Who can conquer all these?” What is written after  is”These are the generations of Ya’akov – Yosef.” For it is written: “And the house of Ya’akov shall be a fire and the house of Yosef a flame” (Ovadya1:18). One spark issuing from Yosef will burn up all of these descendants of Esav (RashiYashan 37:1). Through the aspect of Yosef  the illumination of the Holiness is drawn from the aspect of Ya’akov (Yisrael) to all the tribes and all the worlds. Rashi says: “Fire without a flame has no effect at a distance.” It is the way of fire to join and attach to everything, making it fire. This a flame is necessary this is why it’s written that “Their father loved him more than all his brothers.” Referring to Yosef,  Yosef , represents the  “tzadik”. A Sadeek by his Divine service  raises up all Yisrael and their  good deeds. The aspect of Yaakov (representing “Katnut”) is as a fire without a flame. The quality of flame was given to Yosef the “sadeek”. A fire without a flame is an abstract concept.  First, let us try to reach a deep understanding of the idea of fire. Fire has several principal qualities. It illuminates, its aspires upwards, it spreads, it radiates warmth, and it consumes. Fire is also a common image in the Torah for Divine revelation. On the one hand, fire radiates warmth and illuminates, whereas on the other hand, it consumes: “For the Lord, your God, is a consuming fire” (Devarim 4:24). Rashi distinguishes between a fire and a flame. All the qualities listed above should therefore be seen as pertaining to a flame, and not to a flameless fire. The first thing that Rashi tells us is that a fire without a flame has no effect at a distance. Also  Rashi shares with us is that fire itself does not spread to burn the stubble of Esav. The flame of Yosef is needed. What follows from these descriptions is that a fire without flame also does not radiate warmth, and perhaps also according to this its capacity to illuminate is extremely limited. A fire without flame is sort of an “internal fire” directed inwards and not outwards. Cold institutionalized religion is not enough to take our Asev from ourselves and the world. But Divine service like  flaming is required like that of a personal nature , as the service of a sadeek, as Yosef.

Yehuda alone cannot defeat Asev. This brings us to explain Masiach ben Yosef and David. Yuhudah is the fulfillment of the letter of the law. Yosef is service of a personal nature, above that which is required. The god of the Greeks was a impersonal unreachable god. To them god was the unapproachable authority. By the service of Yosef one fulfills the words of the Torah ”I shall dwell in your midst ” . This is how Yavan the exile of Edom is defeated. One must fulfill the mitzvot regularly this is Yehuda, but not only this but in a beautiful way by this we will overcome the present exile. We see the blending of these two aspects in the mitzvah of the Chanukah manora. As almost every one in Isreal fulfills the letter of the law of this mitzvah, being the aspect of Yehuda, yet in many homes even of those who claim to not be religious we find more than one manora lit this being the ”hadar” above the letter of the law being the aspect of Yosef.

In the Chanukah story the enemy of the Jews were not only the Greeks – but the ”reform” Jews who betrayed the Torah, abandoned the Commandments and accepted Greek ways. This was an internal national struggle for the soul of the Jew – the two sides were the ”Sages” and “Hellenists.”. The true story of the Festival of Light is one of a particularly bloody Jewish civil war.As a matter of fact, civil war continued in Judea for twenty years after the first Chanukah. Hanukkah is a festival built upon a mound of suppressed memories and censored texts, a celebration of light that in fact commemorates a Jewish civil war.

The true fight on Chanukah is about. Between Jews and Greeks? No, it was a civil war between Jews and Jews! So that’s the primary thing. Mattatiyahu Maccabe started the war by killing a Jewish traitor and a Greek official present. What was his sin? He made a sacrifice according to Greek customs. Then Mattatyahu turned to the crowd and announces: “Follow me, all of you who are for God’s law and stand by the covenant.” (1 Maccabees 2:27)

The Hanukkah story is really about a revolt against the Hellenized Jews who had fallen madly in love with the sophisticated, globalizing superculture of their day. The Apocrypha’s texts make it clear that the battle against Hellenization was in fact a civil war among the Jews themselves. Here is how the first Book of the Maccabees describes Jerusalem on the eve of civil war and revolt in the time of Antiochus :

At that time there were some evil-doers in Israel who tried to win popularity for a policy of integration with the surrounding nations. It was because the Jews had kept themselves aloof for so long, they claimed, that so many hardships had befallen them. They acquired a following and applied to Antiochus, who authorized them to introduce the Greek way of life. They built a Greek gymnasium in Jerusalem and even had themselves uncircumcised.

Uncircumcision was the price of admission to the Jerusalem gym ! Josephus, tells us, in “History of the Jews”, that one of the most popular plastic surgery operations, in Jerusalem, at that time was replacing the foreskin because Jewish men were embarrassed not to have a foreskin for the race. So, Josephus says that a lot of doctors got rich putting back the foreskins. It was a Jewish problem at Chanukah. Not Jews and non-Jews. The problem was Jews who wanted to adopt a Greek way of life. We don’t have a problem with Greeks adopting a Greek way of life.

Only when the Greeks saw that many Jews were prepared to betray their way of life, did Antiochus find the courage to prohibit ”on pain of death,” the study of Torah, the practice of Circumcision, the observance of Shabbat and Divine worship,and the rest of his injunctions against Torah observance. On the 15th of Kislev he defiled the Temple and on the 25 of Kislev he put a statue of Zeus in the Temple and מנלאוס the High priest offered a pig on the alter to Zeus Olympus and at that point was ended the Holy service of the Temple. The Greeks wanted a pig offered on the alter to Zeus Olympus so to effect the “gilgul Makiff” which causes the whole of the “seder” of the cosmos to its conclusion. As pigs receive their flow from the first face of mars close to Jupiter. They are Tami and send flow of Lilly upon Jews who eat them. The flow of the sefirot is above the planets. The planets receive flow from the sefirot through the Torah’s commandments. The sefirot adjust the flow of “din” and “Givurah” coming to a man from the stars, this is why Yisrael is called “Am Segulah”. The Miracles of Chanukah was made through the sefirot of the “Gilgul Makiff” that made flow of Saturn and mars on Jupiter becouse of “misrat Nefesh” of the Hasmoneans for Torah and Mitzvot. 8 days of Chanukah alludes to its source which is above nature, the stars but from Bina.

The Greeks ruled against family purity laws. The violation of Needah brings rulings of Mars and sefirot of “din”. By טהרה is rule of Jupiter with midot of chesed and Rachamim on one. The purity of women from blood niddah is only after 7 days. The water She immerses in purifies by sefirot of Bina. Yisrael is separated from the nations by “milah” of the 8th day. The return of the rulership of Malchut is by Bina.

Jason’s time as High Priest was brought to an abrupt end in 172 BCE when he sent Menelaus, the brother of Simon the Benjaminite, to deliver money to Antiochus. Menelaus took this opportunity to ”outbid” Jason for the priesthood, resulting in Antiochus confirming Menelaus as the High Priest. Although during the three years As High Priest Jason had given many proofs of his attachment to the Hellenistic party (by building a gymnasium in Jerusalem and by introducing many Greek customs) the zealous Hellenists of the stamp of the Tobiads plotted his overthrow, suspecting him of partiality to traditional Judaism. At their head stood Menelaus.

Hasmonean Dynasty ruled from 142-63 BCE During that time, there was a great deal of tension between the Hasmoneans and the sages. As a result, the sages were not particularly interested in maintaining a holiday that commemorated the dedication declared by the Hasmonean family. There is not 1 Mishna on Chanukah.

The Maccabees became the Hasmoneans; the Hasmoneans, who were Cohanim, became kings of Israel. But according to Torah Law the King of Yisrael must be only from the House of David. This set them in conflict with the Rabbis, and led to the deep split between the Sadducees (the priestly faction) and the Pharisees (the Rabbinic faction), leading ultimately to much strife and sorrow. It is small wonder then that There is not 1 Mishna on Chanukah.

The Sages established many holidays during the Second Temple era, to thank God and rejoice over the salvations He performed for Israel. These holidays are all mentioned in Megilat Ta’anit. Many of these holidays commemorate the victories of the Hasmoneans: 13 Adar was “Nicanor Day,” when the Hasmoneans defeated a large Greek army and killed their commander, Nicanor; 14 Sivan was the day they conquered Caesarea; 22 Elul, when the Hasmoneans killed the apostates who refused to repent; 23 Marĥeshvan, when the Hasmoneans destroyed the brothel that the Greeks had built near the Holy Temple; and 25 Marĥeshvan, when they conquered Samaria and began settling it.

After the destruction of the Second Temple, the Sages abolished Megilat Ta’anit (sa 573:1) because all of the wonderful things that happened on those days were no longer relevant and thus no longer constituted a reason to rejoice. One may even fast and deliver eulogies on these days. Only Ĥanuka remains of all those day, as the Sages explain, because of the unique miracle of the oil that it commemorates and the mitzva of lighting Ĥanuka candles that the Sages enacted to publicize the miracle.

In order to understand better the significance of Ĥanuka and the miracle of the oil – the only remnants of all the holidays that existed during the Second Temple era – we must elaborate a bit on the events of those days and their meaning.

The story of Chanukah happens during the time of the “Zugos”,  between the leadership of Yossi ben Yoezer & Yossi ben Yochanan  and Yehoshua Ben Parchia & Nitay Ha’Arbeli. These Sages where not the leaders of the revolt.

Sadducees represented the aristocratic group of the Hasmonean High Priests, who replaced the previous High Priestly lineage. The earlier Priestly lineage had been blamed for allowing the Syrian Emperor Antiochus IV Epiphanes to desecrate the Temple of Jerusalem with idolatrous sacrifices and to martyr monotheistic Jews.

Jose ben Joezer was a rabbi of the early Maccabean period 191 BCE, a disciple of Antigonus of Soko and member of the ascetic group known as the Chasidim. Yose belonged to the party of the Ḥasidim, and was a decided adversary of Hellenism. One of Yosi’s ideas was: Let your house be a meeting place for the wise; sit in the dust of their feet; and drink in their words with thirst (Avot 1:4). He belonged to a priestly family. Jose ben Johanan of Jerusalem was his colleague. ) was Nasi (president) of the Sanhedrin in the second century BCE. He was a native of Jerusalem. He and Jose ben Joezer were the successors and, it is said, the disciples of Antigonus of Sokho and the two together formed the first of a series of pairs that transmitted the traditional law; in each pair one, according to tradition, was a prince and a president (“nasi”), and the other vice-president, of the Sanhedrin (Av Beth Din)begins the period known in Jewish history as that of the zugot (pairs), which ended with Hillel and Shammai. According to an old tradition, the member of the “zugot” mentioned first occupied the office of Nasi (president) of the Sanhedrin, while the one mentioned second served in the capacity of vice-president.

The Syrian general Bacchides had Yosi ben Joezer placed on a horse to be hanged. His nephew, an important Hellenist, came to taunt his uncle. On the thirteenth of Adar, 3599 (161 BCE), Yehuda the Maccabee’s troops defeated the army of Greek general Nicanor; Nicanor was killed and the remnants of his troops retreated. This day was celebrated as “the Day of Nicanor” for generations. Immediately thereafter, the Greeks sent Bacchides at the head of a large army. Yehuda, unable to mobilize a greater number of fighters, stood against him with a mere 800 soldiers. Yehuda was killed in this battle (3600/ 160 BCE). Bacchides conquered the entire Eretz Yisrael and awarded the position of High Priest to Alcimus, a Hellenist, who executed sixty of Israel’s elder sages. Yonatan, Yehuda’s brother, assumed command of the remaining Hasmonean fighters, who had fled and gone into hiding. Over time, the Hasmoneans regained their strength and managed to harass the Greeks, but they were unable to reconquer Jerusalem. 

The first pair consisted of Yose ben Yo’ezer as Nasi, and Yose ben Yochanan as the Av Beis Din. They received the Oral Law from Antigonos, as did their contemporary Yochanan, whose son Mattisyahu started the Hasmonean revolt. Yochanon The Kohen Gadol father of Mattisyahu was a great “sadeek”. In his days not a hammer was heard in Yerushalyn during the intermediate days of the festivals. The people were sanctified in their Nefesh Ruach and Nashama so they had the power to stand up against the evil decrees of their enemies. Their Nashamot were from the aspect of Bina. As their fathers drew down Nashamot from there. Bina is the 8th sefira from below to above. The famous “Yehudah HaMaccabee” (Judah the Maccabee) from the story of Chanukah was Mattisyahu’s son.

Jonathan Apphus, High priest 153-143 BCE. Yonathan Maccabee was leader of the Hasmonean Dynasty of Judea from 161 to 143 BCE. He is called also Apphus.

Mattisyahu called for a revolt against the Greeks and Jews who had placed idols in the Temple.

Jewish priest Mattatiyahu ben Yochanon led the Maccabean revolt against the Seleucid Empire (167 BC-160 BC) with his sons Yuhudah, Yochanon, Eleazer, Yonaton and Shimon. He is acclaimed as one of the greatest warriors in Jewish history alongside Joshua, Gideon and David. Led by Mattatiyahu Jews entered Jerusalem and purified the Temple (164 BCE), these events are commemorated each year by the festival of Hannuka. They were called the Hasmoneans as they lived in חשמון in Yuhudah. Later they moved to “Modian” which is near ben Shemon where they killed the greek kings messenger who commanded them to worship idols.

. On 24 Av, the Hasmoneans reinstated Torah law as the official legal system, instead of Greek law. On 23 Iyar, Shimon ben Matityahu the Hasmonean conquered the Acra fortress that housed a Greek garrison even after the city was liberated. On 27 Iyar, the Hasmoneans (apparently during the reign of Yonatan ben Matityahu) banned the idolatrous images that hung upon the entrances of houses and stores. On 15-16 Sivan, the Hasmoneans conquered Beit She’an and drove out the gentiles who oppressed the Jews. The Sages also established holidays to commemorate the deaths of evil kings who persecuted them: King Yannai on 2 Shevat and King Herod on 7 Kislev. Many other dates are mentioned in Megilat Ta’anit.

In the year 138 the Makabees killed אפולציוס and the people with him. In 137 Antiocus sent 48,000 men and 7000 פרשים (men on horses) to fight against the Makabbees who had only 3800 men and not enough weapons. With these he killed 30,000 greek soldiers. In 136 לוסיאס sent 60,000 men and 5000 horse men to fight the Makabees who had 18,000 men at בית צור which is 1 km. From חלחול on the way to Chevron. Here in the beginning of Kislev Yehuda destroyed the Syrian Greek army. Then Yuhudah returned to Yerushayim and purified the Holy Temple and made the miracle with the oil.

In 135 died Antiocus the 4th called אפיפנס and there ruled after him Antiocus אפבטור he warred with Yuhudah with 100,000 foot soldiers, 28,000 horseman and 32 elephants. The battle went to the small town of “gufna” which is between Ramallah an Shechem. It was a “shittah” Year and not enough food could be found to feed his army so Antiocus became afraid and there army returned to אנטוכיה.

In 133 Demetrious son of Doro killed אפבטור and took over. He sent נקנור to fight Yuhudah in “Kafar Slomo”, which is near “kafar Saba”. Here the Makabees killed 500 men. The Battle continued in “Bait Chorin” on the 13th of Adar they killed נקנור.

A threat arose against King Demetrius’ rule, and in order to maintain his power he made a pact with the Hasmoneans, giving them Jerusalem and autonomy. Yonatan took advantage of the struggle for power in the Seleucid dynasty and obtained additional concessions from Demetrius’s rival. Thus, in the year 3608 (152 BCE), the Hellenist administrators of the Holy Temple were deposed and Yonatan began serving as High Priest. In 132 Demetrious sent his army to “Arbel” near “Tevariyah” and they killed many people. They came to Yerushalym with 20,000 men, 2000 horseman Yuhudah had only 800 men they fought near Ramallah. Many died in this battle including Yuhudah Makabbee in this year they destroyed the Temple walls. Then Yonaton and Shimon Makabbee fought them by the Jordan River killing 1000 men on the other side of the jordan.

In 129 Demetrious’ army fought Shimon and Yonaton in ביצי which is east of “Tekoa” close to “Bait Lechem”. Yonaton finnished them off and took Booty.

In 125 Alexander fought for the thrown against Demetrious. Yonaton fought for Alexander in Yuhudah and Shamron against Demetrious. He was killed sitting on his throne. After this Alexander married Cleopatra the daughter of the king of Egypt. Alexander trusted Yonaton.

In 120 rose Demetrious son of Demetrious with a huge army to fight Yonaton because of his Allegiance with Alexander. He fell and did not even get close to Yonaton. They fought in “Ashdod”. Not one man from Yisrael was killed. Demetrious lost 8000 men.

In 118 Antiocus the young son of Alexander conquered Syria from Demetrious. He gave Yonaton the eastern “Galil” till “Sulam Sor” which is “ Rosh HaNikra” and the south till the river of Egypt at “Al Harish”. Yonaton went to “Acco” to meet טריפון the general of Antiocus to rebell against him so to take control for himself of all of Aretz Yisrael. טריפון  lured him into meeting for a friendly conference then he killed all of them except Yonaton. . Diodotus Tryphon,  Shimon went out against טריפון. טריפון fled to the “Galil” perplexed but not before he killed Yonaton near Chevron.

In 117 Shimon Makabbee was Ruler of all Yuhuda, He occupied it and ruled. There was quiet for 7 years. Shimon cleansed Eretz Yisrael of the vestiges of Greek influence, conquered the fortress of Accra (23 Iyar, 3619/ 141 BCE, a date later established as a holiday), as well as additional cities surrounding Judea, and fortified its political independence. The political independence that they won, though limited, contributed to the prosperity of the Jewish population in Eretz Yisrael in every way. Previously, around forty percent of Judea’s produce was taken by the Greeks as a tax; now all of it remained in Eretz Yisrael, When Antiochus VII Sidetes defeated his enemies and no longer needed Shimon’s aid, he instigated a conspiracy against him, and indeed, Shimon’s son-in-law Ptolemy murdered Shimon, along with two of his sons (3625/ 135 BCE). In 110 Shimon was killed by Talmi ben Chavuvo near Jericho who wanted to rule but Yonaton ben Shimon took the throne.

In 106 the Syrians warred against Yonaton ben Shimon of the Hashmoniam they wanted to take all of Aretz Yisrael Specifically Yerushalyim and its suburbs. Yonaton won and strengthened his hold on the land. He went to “Shechem” and destroyed the temple of the “Shamroni” on Mount Garazim and he conquered Edom and forced them to convert. It was in his day that the Jews divided to 3 groups Pharisees they followed the tradition of the sages, Saduccem a small group who did not and a very small group called Essene who lived in the desert and were very exacting holding by the most severe ways of Torah law.

In 92 Yonaton died, his son Yuhudah Astrobulus became ruler the “Sultan”. Shalomzion was his wife and Queen. Yuhudah died within a year his wife did “Yovum” and married his younger brother Yonaton, who is called Alexander Yannia.

From 91 to 64 Alexander Yannia was king and Kohen Gadol the Talmud calls him Yonaton the the Kohen Gadol who became a Sadukee at the end of his days. He was strong and captured all of Aretz Yisrael

In 54 ShalomZion died and 2 of her sons had contempt for one another as each wanted to rule. The firstborn was Horkinas, the younger brothers name was Astrobulus. Astrobulus called Pompus of Rome who was in Syria to choose between them. He Choose Horkinus to rule over Yuhudah and Yerushalym. He was advised by the Edomite אנטפיטר until the “פרתים” captured Syria and Aretz Yisrael and gave them to Antigonus son of Astrobulus. At the end of this (period) there came Herod son of אנטפיטר who went to Rome and the Romans made him king of Yuhudah under אפוטרופוסותם Harod returned to Yuhudah and in 36 killed all the house of the Hasmoneans even his wife Myriam and all his children. So there were left no Hasmoneans. (from Sharey Yosef of R. Shabato). The Ramban writes that the Chashmonaim were wiped out because they took the kingship which was forbidden to them and belonging to the tribe of Yehuda.

Yuhudah Maccabee removed the idols from the Temple. In 140 B.C. The Hasmonean Dynasty began under the leadership of Simon Maccabee, who served as ruler, high priest, and commander in chief. Simon, who was assassinated a few years later, formalized what Yudah had begun, the establishment of a theocracy ruled by a Kohen Gadol, something not found in the Torah

After the Hellenists killed Yosi ben Joezer the new Nasi became Yehoshua ben Perachyah and the Av Beis Din Nittai haArbeli they were the next of the pairs. According to Rambam, one of the other great Sages who transmitted the Oral Law during this generation was Yochanan, son of Shimon—who was one of the four brothers of Yehudah , known as the Maccabee. Judah and his brothers led the military revolt against the Greeks and Hellenized Jews that led to the miracles of Chanukah.

The third generation of “pairs” consisted of the Nasi Yehudah ben Tabbai and the Av Beis Din Shimon ben Shetach. Shimon ben Shetach defied the evil King Alexander Yannai, ensuring the survival of Torah.

Alexander Yannai was a King from the Hasmonean line. One of the sad postscripts of the Chanukah story is that although the sons of Mattisyahu were Kohanim (Priests, from the tribe of Levi), they took it upon themselves to rule over Israel following their successful revolt. This was a tragic error, because the right to be King of Israel was granted by God to the descendants of King David, who is from the tribe of Yehudah, for eternity.

During the following generations, the Hasmonean leaders were corrupted by their power, both taking upon themselves the title of “King” and also acting with increasing hostility toward the Torah Sages. Alexander Yannai was influenced by an evil advisor to have the Sages killed—but his wife, Shlomis Alexandra, ensured that her brother Shimon ben Shetach was spared.

Hasmonean dynasty ruled Between c. 140 and c. 116 BCE,

Yehoshua ben Perachyah and his colleague Nittai of Arbela were the second of the five pairs (Zugot) of scholars who received and transmitted Jewish tradition (Avot i.6; Haggigah 16a).

After the Hellenists killed Yosi ben Yoeser, Yehoshua b. Perachya became the Nasi in the year 140 At the time of the persecution of the Pharisees by John Hyrcanus (c. 134-104 BC), Joshua was deposed — a disgrace to which his words in Men. 109b apparently allude. However in Sanhedrin 107b and Sotah 47a it was during the persecutions of Pharisees 88-76 BCE by Alexander Jannaeus, not John Hyrcanus whose persecution he fled. He fled to Alexandria, Egypt, but was recalled to Jerusalem when the persecutions ceased and the Pharisees again triumphed over the Sadducees (Sotah 47a). John Hyrcanus was a Hasmonean (Maccabee) leader and High Priest. He was the son of Simon Maccabee and thus the nephew of Judah Maccabee, Jonathan Maccabee and their siblings. In the Talmud, and in Josephus. John was not present at a banquet at which his father and his two brothers were murdered, purportedly by his brother-in-law, Ptolemy, son of Abubus. He attained to his father’s former offices, that of high priest and national leader . Josephus said that John Hyrcanus had five sons but only named four in his histories–Judah Aristobulus I, Antigonus I, Alexander Jannai, and Absalom. During the first year of Hyrcanus’ reign, he faced a serious challenge to independent Judean rule from the Seleucid Empire. Antiochus VII Sidetes who marched into Judea, pillaged the countryside and laid a year long siege on Jerusalem. Hyrcanus negotiated a truce with Antiochus by giving him three thousand talents of silver, which he obtained by Robbing the tomb of King David to pay the 3000 talents. in 128 BCE Antiochus VII was killed in battle against Parthia. What followed was an era of conquest led by Hyrcanus that marked the high point of Judea as the most significant power in the area. He did this by a new mercenary army supported by more funds that Hyrcanus removed from the Tomb of David. By this army the greek occupation of Samaria was overrun and totally destroyed. John Hyrcanus embarked on a policy of forcing the non-Jewish populations to adopt Jewish customs. John Hyrcanus also destroyed the Samaritan Temple on Mount Gerizim. John Hyrcanus also initiated a military campaign against the Edom. During this campaign Hyrcanus conquered Adora, Maresha and other towns (Ant.13.257). Hyrcanus then instituted forced conversions on the people of Edom to Judaism. Criticism of John Hyrcanus  as High Priest and Ruler by the Pharisees led to a falling out. Thus, this conflict between John Hyrcanus and the Pharisees elevated the status of the Sadducees by John Hyrcanus. One of the final acts of John Hyrcanus  was an act that solved any kind of dispute over his role as High Priest and Ruler. In the will of John Hyrcanus, he provisioned for the division of the high priesthood from secular authority. John Hyrcanus’ wife was given control of civil authority after his death, and his son Judas Aristobulus was given the role of High Priest. This action represented Hyrcanus’ willingness to compromise over the issue of secular and religious authority. (However, Aristobulus was not satisfied with this arrangement, so he cast his mother into prison and let her starve. Before John Hyrcanus officiated as Israel’s High Priest, the people had it as a practice to do manual work on the intermediate days of the Jewish holidays, and one could hear in Jerusalem the hammer pounding against the anvil. The High Priest passed an edict restricting such labours on those days, thinking it inappropriate to do servile work on the Hol ha-Moed, until after the Feast (Yom Tov). It had also been a custom in Israel, since the days that the Hasmoneans defeated the Grecians who prevented them from mentioning the name of God in heaven, to inscribe the name of God in their ordinary contracts, bills of sale and promissory notes. They would write, for example, “In the year such and such of Yohanan, the High Priest of the Most High God.” But when the Sages of Israel became sensible of the fact that such ordinary contracts were often discarded in the rubbish after reimbursement, it was deemed improper to show disrespect to God’s name by doing so. Therefore, on the 3rd day of the lunar month Tishri, the practice of writing God’s name in ordinary contracts was cancelled altogether, while the date of such cancellation was declared a day of rejoicing, and inscribed in the Scroll of Fasting. The Mishnah (Parah 3:4[5])  relates that during the time of John Hyrcanus, he had prepared the ashes of two Red heifers used in purifying those who had contracted corpse uncleanness. Also during the time of John Hyrcanus any “am haAretz could be trusted in what concerns Demai-produce. John Hyrcanus in the later years of his life, abandoned the sect of the Pharisees, and joined himself to the Sadducees. This prompted the famous rabbinic dictum: “Do not believe in yourself until your dying day.” The Chanukah events happened in 167 bce, we see it seems by the end of the life of John Hyrcanus in 104 BCE things had taken a turn for the worst as far as the leaders of the kingdom of Yisrael following in God’s ways is concerned. The son of John Hyrcanus is Alexander Yanai.

THERE SEEMS TO BE A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION WHEN CHANUKAH HAPPENED IN PLACES IT SAYS 138BCE WHICH IS 3622 , IN ANOTHER PLACE IT SAYS THE CHANUKAH MIRACLES HAPPENED IN 167BCE

 The custom of eating dairy is mentioned by Ran (Shabbat 21b), Rema 670:2, and other Rishonim and Aĥaronim. According to many authorities, the episode of Yehudit did not take place at the same time as the Maccabean revolt. Ben Ish Ĥai, Vayeshev 24 explains that since her story also involved a Greek king who tried to force the Jews to abandon their faith, the Sages commemorate this miracle on the holiday of Ĥanuka.

  Another  custom, which is mentioned in a few books, involves eating foods fried in oil. Rabbeinu Maimon, Rambam’s father, writes in his commentary on Ĥanuka that one should not treat any custom lightly, even a minor one like eating sufganiyot, for one should not denigrate the customs of our people.

The Pharisees opposed the wars of expansion of the Hasmoneans and the forced conversions of Edom. The political rift between them became wider when Pharisees demanded that the Hasmonean king Alexander Jannaeus choose between being king and being High Priest. In response, the king openly sided with the Sadducees by adopting their rites in the Temple. His actions caused a riot in the Temple and led to a brief civil war that ended with a bloody repression of the Pharisees. The split came through a tragic event in the Beth Hamikdosh during Succoth.

Yannai, as Kohen Gadol (High Priest), conducted the Service in the Beth Hamikdosh. One of the special services on Succoth was the “Nisuch Hamayim” (Pouring of the Water) on the Altar. According to tradition, together with the pouring of wine which took place during the whole year, a pitcher of water, which had been joyfully drawn from the Spring of Shiloah, was additionally poured over the Altar on each day of Succoth.

This service was, connected with the ceremony of the Drawing of the Water, known as ”Simchath Beth Hashoevah,” and was an annual event during Succoth, which was carried out with great celebration.

When the High Priest was handed the pitcher of water to pour over the Altar, he poured it out on the ground instead, as the Sadducees bad refused to accept this tradition.

Seeing what he had done, the assembled worshippers in the Beth Hamikdosh were infuriated, and began showering him with their Ethrogim.

King Yannai became so frightened at such open rebellion, that he ordered his non-Jewish soldiers to attack the people. This they did, killing six thousand Jews in the court of the Beth Hamikdosh.

After this happening, the people began to hate King Yannai more than ever. There were many uprisings against the King, and he mercilessly crushed the rebels with the help of his paid army. This, in turn, led to further rebellion and bitterness among the people, resulting in six years of bloody civil warfare.

At his deathbed, King Yannai called for a reconciliation between the two parties. Alexander was succeeded by his widow, Salome Alexandra, whose brother was Shimon ben Shetach, a leading Pharisee. Upon her death her elder son, Hyrcanus, sought Pharisee support, and her younger son, Aristobulus, sought the support of the Sadducees. The conflict between Hyrcanus and Aristobulus culminated in a civil war that ended when the Roman general Pompey captured Jerusalem in 63 BCE and inaugurated the Roman period of Jewish history.

Its ironic the the Makabees fought to keep the Jews into the Torah and keep out Greek thought and now under the structure of the Olympic games Israel has the Makabees games.

Today, We are in dark times, it is precisely at these times we have the Chanukah candles, in the darkest days of the year, the days with the longest nights. This is to remind us that there is light in the darkness. The darkness comes before the dawn. Then we will experience the Ultimate Redemption. God-willing, Mashiach will come very soon . DO WHAT YOU CAN the current exile is a crucial part of our future.

  The Tabernacle’s construction was finished  during the month of Kislev, but being its dedication did not take place till Nissan.  Hashem made it up for this with the future holiday of Chanuka in Kislev.  The Bnei Yissaschar explains that the future dedication of the third  Temple will take place during Cheshvan.

THE “JABBOK” ——- THE JABBOK RIVER-THERE BIBLICAL JACOB FOUGHT THE DEVIL AND WON !


Filed under: IsraelJABBOKkaballahParsha VayishlachUncategorizedYAVOK | Tags: ArchaeologyJABBOKKabbalahParshah VayishlachRIVER JABBOK

YAVAK

The  Biblical Jacob crossed the JABBOK river on his way to Canaan. There he fought the angel called the ס”ם, also known as the Adversary , the Satan and won.

WHATS THIS WHOLE THING REALLY ABOUT !

The JABBOK river or in Hebrew  יַבֹּק is a tributary of the Jordan from the east, the first river south of the Yarmuk. The Hebrew name is derived either from the root meaning  a sound imitating the noise of water flowing over pebbles. Some identify  the JABBOK river with The Zarqa River is identified with the biblical Biblical Jacob crossed the Jabbok on his way to Canaan, after leaving Harran. It leads west into the Sukkot Valley, from where one crosses over the Jordan and can easily reach Shechem, as Jacob eventually did. Its modern name is Wady Zirka. But there are those who say that the river is fordable at many points, save when in full flood. The particular ford referred to in Genesis 32 cannot now be identified. But it is said that the Modern City in Israel called  Adam or Tel ed-Damiyeh, A city on the Jordan River beside Zarethan mentioned in the Bible in Josh 3:16 with the parting of the Jordan. It is also mentioned in and Hosea 6:7. The city has been identified by many with Tel ed-Damiyeh on the western bank of the river, just below the mouth of the Jabbok and about 18 miles north of Jericho. In the Book of Joshua 3:16 it states that “The waters which came down from above stood [and] rose up upon an heap very far from the city Adam, that [is] beside Zaretan: and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, [even] the salt sea, failed, [and] were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho.”

The ADAM, or could be translated CITY OF “red” is  A city in the middle of the Jordan valley near “ZARETHAN” (Josh 3:16), The name probably survives at the Damieh Ford, near the mouth of the Jabbok twenty miles above Jericho. An Arabian historian asserts that about 1265 AD the Jordan was here blocked by a land slide. The inner gorge of the Jordan is here narrow with high banks which would facilitate such an obstruction as permitted the waters to “pile up” above to Adam and run out below, permitting Joshua’s host to cross on dry land.https://www.bible-history.com/isbe/A/ADAM,+CITY+OF/

Also the City of Adam stood “beside Zarethan”  on the east bank of the Jordan is called “Damia”. According to the Book of Joshua, the flow of the water was arrested, and rose up “upon an heap” at the time of the Israelites passing over.

YABBOK in Hebrew also means a ford in a river , a place where people may pass over the river at that spot. A ford is a shallow place with good footing where a river or stream may be crossed by wading, or inside a vehicle getting its wheels wet.  Fords may be impassable during high water.

What we are really talking about is how to Ford a River  , how to make a safe and successful river crossing. IN THIS CASE A SPIRITUAL ONE— HERE IS A MAP— ENOUGH FOR THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND …………

ENCOUNTERS WITH “ASEV” — WHO IS “EDOM” SECRETS OF VAYISLACH

THINGS ARE NOT AS THEY APPEAR

Yaakov’s (Jacob’s) bed originally was in the tent of Rachel and upon her death Yaakov brought his bed into the tent of her maidservant Bilhah, seeing her as the link to Rachel. Reuven could not tolerate him choosing Bilhah, a lowly maidservant in his eyes, over Leah the matriarch of the Jewish people, his mother. So he moved Yaakov‘s bed into the tent of his mother Leah. Reuven never actually slept with Bilha, God forbid, That would have been an unpardonable offense – “rather he moved around the bed of his father and Torah considers it as if he had slept with her” as said in Gemore Shabbat.

“Yaakov avinu” spent a total of 36 years in exile from the time he left Yitzhak and Rivkah, his father and mothers house. He spent 14 years at the Yishivah (school) of Shem and Ever, before going to the house of Lavan. At Lavan’s house Yaakov work 14 years for Lavan so he could marry Rachel and Leah. He worked a additional 6 years making his fortune and fathering 11 of his children, as Benyamin was born in the land of Israel. It took him 2 years to travel back to “Aretz Yisrael” (The land of Israel). You can come back to Israel

Rachel died as Yaakov entered “Aretz Yisrael”, as the Torah says its forbidden to be married to 2 sisters at the same time. Concerning this the Ramban says the Holy air of “Aretz Yisrael” would not tolerate Yaakov’s 2nd wife. Our parsha tells us Yaakov sent the Angels to Asev to let Asev know God was with him, at the same time he wanted to appease his brother. Yakov was scared  since he took the  blessings, as well as he also took Leah to be his wife and at one point, she was destined to marry Eisav, so Yakov bowed before Asev and called Asev his master 8 times. God said to Yaakov “ Since you humiliated yourself  eight times by referring to his brother as your  master . your  offspring will be punished and be ruled eight times by a kingship from Eisav ‘s offspring, before the first king of Israel ,Shaul comes to rule.” Benyamin was not yet born and  is the only one who never bowed to Eisav . Binyamin merited  to have The Holy Temple  built in his portion of land in Israel.

Our sages tell us from Barashit (Genesis) we can see many things about the way one should live in this world as is shown there by the examples of our forefathers. In this parsha a point is made by the Holy One, Blessed is His Name to show us that the descendants of Avraham Yitzchak and Yaakov are separate and different from the other nations of the world. In the parsha it is clearly drawn that from Asev comes the people of Edom as it is written ” These are the generations of Asev who is Edom”. “Asev” (Esau), is a reincarnation of Cain. Edom means red, the sages say this describes their blood thirsty nature. Rome descended from Edom. If we spell Rome in Hebrew ”רם“ this has the numerical value of 240 which is the same numerical value as Amalak. Amalak is the countervailing, th \e opposite force in the world to Yisrael. They are now a transmigratory group of souls whose nature is to hate Jews, the nation of Yisrael and GOD. This would all make much sense since the Zohar tells us that Asev is of the side of defilement. Yisrael on the other hand the Zohar tells us means ”princehood and strength”. The Parsha of Chayei Sarah concludes with the chronicles of Ishmael, Toldot concludes with Esau’s marriage to Ishmael’s daughter,  Parsha Vayishlach concludes with the chronicles of Esau. It details Esau’s family line and the leaders and nations that would descend from him, concluding with Magdiel, founder of Rome.

The angel Yaakov wrestled gave him this name Yisrael. The Zohar tells us the angel gave Yaakov this name so that he could prevail over anyone. From this we can learn a lesson as Yaakov faced a conflict here, namely having to fight a Angel. From this conflict came good tidings, as Yaakov received a blessing of power from the Angel. Notice that Yakov asked the angel a question “what is your name”, the angel would not answer. As we know that the angel Yaakov fought was the angel of Asev, the angel associated with evil. It does not like us to ask spiritual questions and prefers that we stay in the “dark” Yakov was not willing to stay in the dark. The true Nature of Yakov and all Yisrael is to Love God and fight Evil, even if risk is involved. The way of Torah is serving God down in this physical world and at times things can get dirty, and down here. When we ask questions we can then grow in the light that the answer reveals. Yakov was the first person able to serve god in love while at the same being attacked by and fighting against evil. The strategy of the Angel of Asev is to keep us stupid spiritually. It desires us to not even think about God and the eternal life of the soul.  So don’t give in to the angel of Asev but ask spiritual questions grow and learn. While you still can. In Gemore Chulin 91a it says there that Jacob’s thighs were hurt – the right thigh or both thighs is not clear.

When the Holy One puts obstacles in our path we should be joyous since we know that by overcoming these difficulties we will be better off than before. It is by overcoming temptations and turning instead to bring light into the world Yisrael is strengthened. From the parsha we can see ways to overcome these obstacles as when Yaakov was going to meet Asev he split his party into groups so to be able to survive a attack. In Safer Giloya Raza its written that the sages added to the Amida a prayer that our enemies be uprooted and shattered. He says they did this so advise us that we must destroy our enemies, and that to pray against them is not enough. It will not even help, unless we war with them. He also sent Asev gifts and most important he got up at night. At the time which the Zohar speaks concerning saying “when the north wind blows” the breath of Gan Aden (Garden of Eden), Chuchmah the first flash of creative inspiration that guides universal consciousness. It was to this that Yaakov rose so that there he could there evoke a will of GOD that would be most favorable for Yisrael. Such that would enable him to overcome Asev and stop him from wanting to do harm to Yisrael. The time most appropriate for revelation of Chuchmah of secrets is at midnight. The proper way to get comprehension of the Torah is to be occupied in Torah at midnight. This is the main time for learning Torah. As this is a time of favorable will to know secrets of the Torah. Its a Torah party. Rabbi Ashlag teaches from the Zohar that at night the eyes whose light is chuchmah (Divine creative inspiration) are closed, this is because of judgments so they are not able to illuminate because of diminishment of divine flow, so people sleep. Sleep is drawn from the ruling of the burning of Gehenem (Hell), which makes a closing to the Nashama (soul of Divine intellect). These do not dress in the supernal light as it is not enjoined to them. Learning Torah at night and carefully saying the ”Sma” (meditation on Unity of God) will help you rise to be occupied in Torah after midnight. At midnight is given light of the left from Ima divine understanding, specifically Chuchmah from the left of ima. It’s the vowel “shuruk”. This is the power of sight that can open the eyes, but for this light to illuminate it requires chassadim. Which is the force of GOD’s giving. The power which has us do Mitzvot.1 In the Torah its written “Yaakov Avenu sent angels before him to his brother Eisav”. The Midrash brought by Rashi tells us that the Group of angels assaulted Eisav and his men shoving them, the “Malachim” (angels) asked of Eisav’s men, “whose men are you?”, they answered, Eisav’s. They proceeded to beat them. “stop”, the men cried, “Eisav is the son of Yitzchok”. The Malachim paid them no heed. “He is the grandson of Avrohom”, this also produced no letup. Finally they conceded, “He is the brother of Yaakov”. The Malachim replied, “If so, then you are one of ours”. Eisav’s true nature is that of being Yaakov’s other half, working together towards the goal of uniting the world under the banner of “Kavod Shamayim” (The Glory of God). He choses to ignore and cover up his true self,  under many layers. The beating of the Malachim peeled away these layers and revealed his inner self. For that moment, after being stripped to the core, he was aware of of his true self. And the Malachim pronounced upon him the title of being “one of ours”. Some times God forces people into coming into grips with reality, by providence. Yaakov Avenu achieved success in his endeavor. Eisav’s mercy was  aroused. The impact of this encounter is being felt up to this very day.

Yakov’s meeting with Asev in this week’s parsha  teaches us about all confrontations to come with Asev to our present today. The word in the Torah for smite, when Yaakov fears Asev attacking is “והכהו”, Whether we read it forwards or backwards, it is the same word. In  Da’at Chachamim its says this is so as  Every blow, that the gentiles inflict on Am Yisroel, will eventually rebound and hit them back.

It is not easy even for the most beloved of Hashem Yaakov Avinu look what he had to go through he survived living with Lavan for twenty years, fought an entire night with the angel of Eisav, living through a confrontation with Eisav, Yaakov  went to the city called  Shechem and then Shechem son of Chamor (literally, “son of a donkey”) raped Ya’akov’s daughter, Dinah, and kidnapped her. From that crisis came another catastrophe after Levi and Shimon: killed all the men of Shechem , Then Yaakov feared retaliation by all the nations of Canaan. It is not easy even for the most beloved of Hashem Yaakov Avinu so don’t be surprised when facing difficulties just “serve Hashem”. The child conceived by Dinah and Schem  was named Osnot. Osnot ended up, in the house of Potiphar and later married Yosef. From Yosef and Osnot, Menashe and Ephraim were born. The God has ways of doing things we would never come up with , by this know personal and national salvation may only be a moment away !

Know, Lavan was Bilam’s grandfather and Beor was Bilam’s father and Yitro was Balak’s grandfather. These people are closely related. Aspects of Jacob and Esau are in all of us and they  stand in perpetual battle. Soul against body, the scholar and the warrior – the body’s selfish drives and the soul’s share and transcend. These 2 voices are always pulling us in opposite directions.Should I take  or give to another?  Am I here to serve myself or to serve God or only myself ?

When Esav heard that Yaakov was wealthy, he desired to take possession of his wealth. The lesson is don’t show off, unless you are looking for problems.

Preparing to meet Asev Yaakov divided everything that he owns and cherished into two camps, placing  each camp  1 day apart  (24 hours) . in order to save the 2nd camp in the event of a war with Eisav. We can learn from this that if we face difficulties,  space them out, so to not be overcome. In the  24 hours is  amazing secrets. The number 24 hints to the permutations of the name Yhv”h and And”y, the number of books in  תנ”ך – The Bible, which includes  The Torah 5 books, 8 books of  The Prophets and  11 books of The Writings. Interesting pure gold is 24 Karat,  the Torah known as Gold! The earth turns counterclockwise  on its axis ,approx. 23.5°,  once in every 24 hours a day. At Earth’s equator, the speed of Earth’s spin is about 1,000 miles per hour that’s 24,000 miles a day !

  In the parsha we see clearly Asev becomes the nation of Edom and Yaakov becomes Yisrael. Our parasha concludes with a list of the descendants of Esau, indicating his exclusion from the covenant of Abraham .  It is Esau who must now go into exile as its written: “Esau took his wives, his sons and daughters, and all the members of his household, his cattle and all his livestock, and all the property that he had acquired in the land of Canaan, and went to another land because of his brother Jacob”(36:6).  Jacob, or more correctly, Israel, alone, continues the covenant of Abraham. Asev goes to ”Seir” which the Zohar says refers to a strange God. While Yaakov goes to a place called Succot and then to Kedesh which refers to ”kodesh” (Holiness).

So always Go in the way of KODESH !

   dots            BS”D

In parashat Nitzavim we read:

הַנִּסְתָּרֹת לַיקֹוָק אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְהַנִּגְלֹת לָנוּ וּלְבָנֵינוּ עַד עוֹלָם לַעֲשׂוֹת אֶת כָּל דִּבְרֵי הַתּוֹרָה הַזֹּאת:
“Concealed acts are the responsibility of the Lord our God ; but overt acts are the responsibility of us and our children unto eternity, to carry out all the words of this Torah.”

In the Torah portion Nitzavim is the above verse in chapter 29, verse 28 there is dots over some of the letters in the Hebrew text. There are only 10 times this sort of scribal marking is found, so it really calls out for some explanation. It is as if you underlined some passage in red ink, or a highlighter.

In the Torah scroll, it appears a with  dot over the ע of עד,  meaning unto. Why is only half the word dotted?

עד is a word that suggests continuity. A dot on only one of the word’s only two letters breaks it up. Maybe this is suggesting we may not know the secret things now, but in the world to come we will ? We simply have to do the best we can now with what we know.

If we don’t read the phrase לנו ולבנינו, us and our children because of the dots on them, which at times denote the marked world is “like” erased. Then the verse would start “Concealed acts are the responsibility of the Lord our God, and overt acts also.”  While the children of Israel are still in the wilderness, they are not wholly responsible beings; God is concerned with both their public and private acts and will dispense judgement, like a parent. Once they cross over the Jordan, into their promised homeland, Rashi informs us that then, they have to take collective ownership of their actions. Now they are adults with autonomy. They have a responsibility to maintain law and order among themselves as best they can.

Concealed acts concern the Lord our G-d; but with overt acts, it is for us and our children ever to apply all the provisions of this Teaching. (Deut. 29:28).

In the Torah scroll there are eleven dots over the words of this verse, over eleven consecutive letters:   the words lanu u-le-vanenu (= for us and our children), and over the letter ayin which begins the next word, ad (= ever). This means that we have responsibility for each other, helping each other obey the rules and do mitzvot – and we also have responsibility for ourselves. This is the longest run of dots in the Torah, eleven of them, and immediately before the dots is an eleven-letter phrase – ליהוה אלהינו. As we’ve seen, we don’t ever erase God’s name. We avoid even a suggestion of doing such a thing, so we wouldn’t put those eleven dots above ליהוה אלהינו. But the association is there; is it coincidence that there are exactly the right number of dots for ליהוה אלהינו, put in right next to the phrase, on the next available words? What if we read the verse without God? Then it reads “Concealed acts and overt acts are the responsibility of us and our children unto eternity…”

In  Avot de-Rabbi Nathan , in addressing the subject of these dots, presents an dialogue between Ezra the Scribe,  who set the text of the Torah and the rules of copying it as is today, and Elijah the Prophet, who is destined to resolve all questions and uncertainties:

Ezra said:   If Elijah should happen to come to me and ask, “Why did you write it thus?” I shall answer him, “I have already put dots over them.” And if he should say to me, “You have written this well,” I shall remove the dots.

It follows from this interchange that the dots were an accepted sign for deletion, and if Elijah should reveal to Ezra that these words were not to be written, Ezra would argue back that they indeed had already been marked for deletion. The use of dots  as a deletion sign can be seen also in  Isaiah found among the Dead Sea Scrolls.

Since Ezra was not sure whether or not these words ought to be written, he wrote them and added a deletion sign over them; it was decided that this practice continue to be followed in all Torah scrolls.  As a result, Scripture itself hints at two possible readings:  according to one, the words with dots over them are to be included in the verse; according to the other, they are to be omitted.

This verse is the longest run of dots in the Torah, eleven of them in all. Immediately before the dots is an eleven-letter phrase – ליהוה אלהינו. There is a tradition that when letters are dotted it is like the words are erased and not read. There can’t be dots on the 11 letters of ליהוה אלהינו as we don’t ever erase God’s name. We wouldn’t even make the suggestion, so we wouldn’t put those eleven dots above ליהוה אלהינו. But since are exactly the right number of dots for ליהוה אלהינו . We would read the verse “without God”? as “Concealed acts and overt acts are the responsibility of us and our children unto eternity…”. The “clippa” nourish from 11 sources.

These are some of  the dotted words mentioned in the Mishnah and Talmud:   elav = to him (Gen. 18:9 – Bava Metzia 87a), be-kumah = when she rose (Gen. 19:33 – Nazir 23a), ve-Aharon = and Aaron (Num. 3:39 – Bekhorot 4a), rehokah = far, long (Num. 9:10 – Mishnah, Pesahim 9.2), ve-issaron = one-tenth (Num. 29:15 – Menahot 87b), lanu u-le-vanenu = to us and our children (Deut. 19:28 – Sanhedrin 43b).   Sifre and parallel texts also mention the words:  u-veineikha = between [you and] me (Gen. 16:5), va-yishakehu = and he kissed him (Gen. 33:4), et-tzon = flock (Gen. 37:12), and asher = which is (Num. 21:30). There are many more in the Gemora Sofrim in mesechtot Katanot. You can find much more on this in catagory “mesora”. Most explain that  dots come to limit or mitigate words of the text, as in the “halakhic” teaching about the “Pasach sheni”  for those who were “on a long journey” (Num. 9:10) when the Passover sacrifice was to be offered:  “Rabbi Yose said, therefore there is a dot over the letter h ,in the word “long”, to indicate that it is not because the person is surely far away, rather he may be anywhere from the threshold of the Temple forecourt and beyond (Mishnah, Pesahim 9.2).

The masoretic literature mentions additional dotted words, however Torah scrolls today do not have dots in these places. It is found that some of  these dots  do not indicate deletion, rather they indicate a controversy.

In the list of the seventy people who went down to Egypt says:  “To Joseph were born in the land of Egypt Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath daughter of Poti-phera priest of On bore to him” (Gen. 46:20). The Babylonian masoretic tradition relays that the letter yod in the word Poti-phera has a dot over it.  This indicates that the name Poti-phera was written according to the Babylonian tradition as a single word, and not as two words, which is the generally accepted tradition.  The dot over the yod, where the two words are joined, hints that there is a difference of opinion as to how this name is to be written – as one word or two.   Indeed, the masorah indicates explicitly that there was a controversy over this question.   It is interesting to note that according to the Yemenite tradition the name Potiphera is written as a single word, so the ancient controversy that existed in Babylonia continues to this day among different Jewish communities.

In the verse, “Why will you turn the minds (written tenu’un, read teni’un) of the Israelites” (Num. 32:7), a dot was reportedly written over the first vav in the word tenu’un, and a controversy over this is reported.   According to the generally accepted text today, this word is spelled one way and read another. Apparently, according to the minority opinion in the Babylonian tradition, the word was written with the letter yod and was read as it was written. We also find that the words in the Torah that have written by them the letter nunand a dot is placed above the word or above the letter. These are not “zitima”, and there is disagreement and controversy over them.

“Zitima” is a Greek work meaning derogatory and erroneous.  Some say   “zitima” is as , “machlakot” Hebrew for disagreement “u-pligin aleihun” and Aramaic as disagreement over them.

This passage connects between the dots that are written over an entire word or over a single letter and the sign that appears in the margin in the form of a final letter nun or a letter “zayin”.  This is an early masoretic mark which appears in ancient manuscripts where there is a note of “keri” (read)  and “ketiv” (written).

“The secret things belong to the Lord our God; but those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this Torah.”

The secret is understanding this verse in context. The verses right before talk about the Jews leaving the path of Torah and “mitzvot” (commandments), God getting angry and removing  the Jews from the land of Israel.

What does the verse mean ?

God is saying: “Don’t worry, I will take care of all the hidden sins you do not even know of, they are not your concern. Your only concern is those sins that you are aware of.” Also other people’s sins that are public knowledge, they to are your responsibility. The “Aor Hachym”  explains “areivut”  It literally means each Jew is mixed in , connected to teach other Jew. As each Jew is as a part of one’s self. This creates a necessary  mutual responsibility of one Jew to another. This exists in the physical and spiritual realms. These are things we are responsible to fix also. We see the effect of being collectively responsible for one another with the incident of  Achan, who deliberately violated a Divine Commandment, and took property from the city of Jericho, after it had fallen during the conquest of Canaan under the leadership of Yehoshua. The subsequent defeat of the Jewish army at the battle of Ai is attributed to this lone act.

Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch suggests that the verse means when we are scattered in exile don’t spend all your time trying to figure out mysteries, like when redemption is going to happen. Your concern is only with the revealed – do the commandments and let God figure when the time of redemption will be.

The split between “nigleh” (revealed) and “nistar” (secret) in our verse  is as the Kli Yakar teaches that every commandment has  two aspects to it:

  1. The physical requirments of its actual performance .
  2. The “kavanah” (intention), to understand and become learned in the commandments secrets , which God hid from the other nations.

​He ends up connecting this to teshuvah, saying:

….it is not concealed from you, so you have no excuse to say that you didn’t know that the Holy One Blessed Be He accepts the teshuvah of the sinners, for you knew the matter of teshuvah more than all the nations because “Yisrael and teshuvah preceded the world” [Pesachim 54a].

And if so, then when Hashem created teshuvah, you were also there.

And if the nations need prodding about teshuvah – like the people of Nineveh – behold, you don’t need any prodding because the secret of teshuvah was revealed to you ever since that ancient time.

The Kli Yakar goes on to say that no one need ascend to Heaven to find out whether Hashem will accept our teshuvah; the answer to that secret is already known to us.

The parsha begins ”You stand this day all of you before Yhv”h Elohech”a”. The sages say the day referred to here is Rosh Hashanah.

As every word of the Torah is precious. One can find so much meaning to its voice. Its written ” Not with you alone will I make this covenant and this oath; But with him who stands here with us this day before Yhv”h Elohech”a and also with him who is not here with us this day” (29:13-14). The Torah is Eternal as hinted by ” also with him who is not here with us this day”.

Its further written ”you will enter into covenant with Yhv”h Elohech”a, and into his oath, which the Yhv”h Elohech”a makes with you this day. That He may establish you today for a Nation to himself ”. This is what it is to be the Nation of Israel. The nation of GOD. Who here makes a covenant with us. Concerning this Covenant a few verses later GOD reminds us ”It should come to pass, when one hears the words of this curse, that he blesses himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart, Yhv”h will not spare him (18-20). But now standing in front of the Jewish people are noble men but they are not educated in Divine wisdom-Torah Knowledge. Many even naked of knowledge of Torah law. Only with knowledge is one given free choice. One would not know that the creator has forbidden growing two different types of plants close together unless one read this in the Torah. Then we know what to do. Without this knowledge there is not free choice. Without knowledge of the Torah one ends up with a different kind of life, so the generations changed. Most of us have heard stories of our religious ancestors. But a lack of Torah knowledge can rip away faith in the Divine God, the giver of the Law from generations. Creating a Jewish culture with different values not necessarily focused concerning piety, holiness, or respect for Torah, which is their heritage. Jewish youths found delight and closeness to God meditating on the Midrash (Ancient Jewish spiritual texts). When the House of learning Torah was the community gathering place. Today instead they gather at basketball games and parties. Yet the mitzvoth are not profane or ordinary, but they are Holy purifying and sanctifying the Jewish people revealing Godliness and also in all worlds. In a generation where every one wants to be part of the fad and fashion and no one wants to be left out. It is difficult to live as an individual with the uniqueness and distinctiveness of the one God and one people. Thus there is intermarriage, indifference and assimilation. Yet there are those that see GOD as omnipotent and believe it is under his laws, values and concepts we must love. Others can be found among our people that do not believe in a God that is effected by man. It will be between these and those that the future of the Jewish people and The State of Israel will be decided. Will Jerusalem be a reflection of the Heavens of Holiness; this cannot be accomplished by secularism alone, nor by impassionate religion resulting from spiritual starvation, creating a comfortable convenient Judaism. Which is something like playing ” Charade ”. The parsha concludes saying ” love Yhv”h Elohech”a, and that you may obey his voice, and that you may cleave to him; for he is your life, and the length of your days; that you may live in the land which Yhv”h swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.”

When Moses had finished writing down in a book the words of this law to the very end, 31:25 Moses commanded the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of YHWH, saying, 31:26 “Take this book of the law and put it beside the ark of the covenant of YHWH your God; let it remain there as a witness against you.”

What is written on this scroll exactly? In chapter 28 are the blessings and curses. 

So let us all , as in this parsa accept upon ourselves the kingship of GOD this RoshHashanah, and become the nation of Israel spoken of here in our parsha so that we may see the words in our parsha fulfilled ”. And Yhv”h Elohech”a will put all these curses upon your enemies, and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.” (7:30) With the arrival of our righteous Mashiach quickly in our days.

VaYalach                                                                  בס”ד

This week’s portion ,Vayalech, tells us what transpired during Moses’ last day on earth. On  that fateful day he wrote down the whole Torah scroll. The Torah scrolls we use today are copies of copies of copies of the original Torah scroll written by Moses on the day of his passing, on 7 Adar of the year 2488. Moses commanded the Levites to Take this new Torah scroll and place it at the side of the Ark which also housed the Two Tablets inscribed with the Ten Commandments . This Ark was in the  Tabernacle in the desert and later the Temple in Jerusalem. It is interesting that Rabbi Meir held that the Torah scroll needed to be placed inside the Ark, at the side of the Two Tablets. Rabbi Judah teaches that a shelf protruded from the outside of the Ark and the Torah scroll was placed on that shelf. 

Parashat Va-Yalech mentions for the last time in the Torah  “The place YHV”H will choose” (Deut. 31:11). Before the Tabernacle was set up, the high places were permitted, and the sacrificial service was performed by the first-born.  Once the Tabernacle was set up, the high places were prohibited, and the service was performed by the priests…After they arrived at Gilgal, the high places were permitted…When they came to Shiloh, the high places were prohibited.  There was no roof to it, but below [were walls] like a house of stone and curtains above, and this was the resting place …After they came to Nob and to Gibeon, the high places were permitted…When they came to Jerusalem the high places were prohibited and were never again permitted

It says in our Parsha :

“Their children, who have not known any thing, may hear, and learn to fear Yhv”h Elohech”a, as long as you live in the land to which you go over the Jordan to possess.” (devarim 31:13)

This means forever folks, You should know that the sages teach us three things are given on condition, the land of Israel, the Holy Temple and the kingdom of David. ” These are given on the condition you keep my covenant”. The land is God’s, on this condition he gave it to us. It is not an outright gift. Our presence in the land of  Israel  depends on our observing the commandments. 

Moshe said “I am no longer able to come and go, and G-d has told me you will not cross the Jordan” (31:2) This reminds us of the times Yisrael needs new leadership.

In Chupat Eliyahu we learn 3 gifts Hashem gave to Yisrael, but they are received through  yesurim (sufferings). These gifts are Torah, Aretz Yisrael and Olam Haba (the world to come). The  building of the bait ha Mikdash (the Holy Temple) is an inheritance in merit of Torah learning.

There is no free lunch

As said above we must “learn to fear Yhv”h” as “Ratzon” (will) is Atik (the source of delight). Chesed (kindness) is “ratzon” concerning the “avoda” (divine service) of Yisrael. If there is no “avoda” there is caused hiddenness of this Divine will called Chesed. The Nashamot of Yisrael bring out “Dat” (knowledge) from potential to actual by the giving of the Torah. This is called Z’a (Source of the Ruach, emotional soul). It is all arranged by Hashem in his free will to give us all free choice. Thus there is revealed accordingly the power of evil which stands against the  “kidusha” (holiness), so there will be displayed love and fear of Hashem. these are all acts of his kingship. They exist so that we may approach levels of Holiness needed in the service of  Hashem. The “chuchum” (wise man) understands the good  that is hidden. Where ever he is he sees the place of the level of “kidushah” (holiness). The evil is only to teach the good (it will never leave his hands weak !).   Fear  embraces humility and humility embraces “chasidut” (piety). So by fear of sin one gets all these qualities. All the time one is only occupied only  in the simple meaning of the Torah they see themselves  as poor and dead. The main part of the Torah is its secrets. One who has the fear of Hashem without chuchmah (Kabbalah) will not reach the “midot” (attributes) of “chassidut” (piety). Fear of Hashem is Chuchmah (Wisdom that inspires), turning away from evil is Bina (understanding). The beginning of the mitzvah of fearing Hashem is to know that “elokenu” (our God) is the ד”ו parzufim  (masculine and feminine aspects of Hashem). These are the Written and Oral Torah by whose ruling we were taken out of Egypt.

Bina (understanding) is אשר who made man in צלם (supernal image) of  מ”ה (name of 45/source of Z’a-ruach). If a man gives his heart and dat to the fear of Hashem, behold the letters of  יהו”ה cleave in  his heart. One who merits this has no lack. This is what it means “Make Me a migdosh (temple), and I will dwell in them”..  One sanctifies their heart so  as to have dwell in it יהו”ה. But if his heart lacks fear  of Hashem, the letters of יהו”ה are far  from him.  This is the greatest possible lack.

It’s said that one person may take another’s portion in gan aden, so all are not the same. One serves from fear while another from love ,  but booth are called sadeekem. One is greater than his fellow in humility and the fear of sin. Our parsha contains the name of another parsha in it “Mekaitz”. In the verse  “Moses commanded them say, ” At the end (“Mekaitz”) of 7 years, at the time of smittah during the holiday of Succot” (Deut 31:10) May this connection be revealed with the coming of the Mashiach quickly in our days !

BS”D

Varah—Vaera

In our parsha it is written “And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, by the name of א”ל שד”י, but by my name יהו”ה I was not known to them.” (Exudus 3:6)

Abraham apparently knew this name, since The Torah states a number of times:

“and Abraham called upon the name of יהו”ה ”  (12:8, see also 13:4)Abraham apparently knew this name but NOT LIKE MOSES . Rabbi Sa’adia Gaon, Persia, 892-942,  writes Moses knew God by the name יהו”ה alone and not through other names. Not that he did not know the other names but his relationship was directly with יהו”ה. The patriarchs were definitely familiar with this name but they were unacquainted with how it works, not like Moses.

The Ramban explains this according to Eben Ezra  thus :

Thus God said to Moses: ‘I have appeared to the patriarchs with the might of My arm with which I prevail over the constellations and help those whom I have chosen, but with My name יהו”ה with which all existence came into being I was not made known to them, that is, to create new things for them by the open change of nature.  And Wherefore say unto the children of Israel: I am יהו”ה and inform them once again of the Great Name יהו”ה , for by that Name I will deal wondrously with them, and they will know that I am the Eternal, that makes all things. God revealed himself to the Forefathers through nature. This sort of revelation is expressed by the name “Shaddai,” which is linguistically similar one who “Meshaded” (shifts) the normal course of nature. In the future, God, He will reveal Himself to Moses and the Children of Israel in a miraculous manner beyond nature, a revelation of YHVH. This is the name which represents hidden Divine inwardness, and therefore is not read as it is written. It is a lofty name, and hence, revelation of the name YHVH is miraculous.

What is it with this name יהו”ה ?, We will try to understand a little bit as this involves the infinate wisdom of the God.

Its written “forever יהו”ה your word stands in Heaven”. Every moment Hashem judges in everything its life force. What power it needs always. What barrier will not be transcended is determined by שד”י, changes are by יהו”ה

1

Malchut is a garment to Teferet, as אדנ”י is a garment of יהו”ה

2

There needs to be the 4 letters of יהו”ה in Teferet and the 4 letters of אדנ”י is in Malchut so to make tikun in proper order. יהו”ה is only revealed by אדנ”י .

3

Rabbi Avraham Abulafia in Safer cheshek teaches that there is no doubt that when one returns to intellect and cleaves in life force according to the force of olam haba, which will be according to his comprehension. By this Hashem (God) shall arrouse you upon the form of זכירה (memory) and on Chuchmah till that you lack no power, G-d willing. Every time you want to remember יהו”ה with all its vowels or Holy Names, the 12 letter name from 3 names of 4 letters or 3 יהו”ה or its 12 permutations.4

Know the Name from permeating it in all 22 letters as in Safer Yetzera of Avraham Avinu, if you don’t error with letters or nikudot. The prophet Jeremiyah worked Safer Yetzera alone. He was told (By Hashem) to find a friend to learn Safer Yetzera with so that they could permeate the alp-bet together, thus fulfilling as its written “ speaking in the fear of יהו”ה a man to his friend. So they could acomplish anything.5 יהו”ה gives Nashamot (souls) to the letters. Forever the Nashama of the letters is the Name. The letters of יהו”ה are the Nashama of man.6

All Holiness of “Kadosh Kadoshim” is from “mazel”. Everything derives from Mazel. The letters יהו”ה come out of Atik from the beard and connect to this Mazel. It supports other letters in Z’a.7

It’s tought in Shoshon Sodot that Aretz Yisrael is not under the supernal princes (angels) above but יהו“ה. It is nourished from Keter elyon (source of Divine will and delight) by the middle piller. Aretz Yisrael recieves flow of ברכה (blessing) from עליונה ארץ (the supernal land).8

There is one חיה (angel) in the rekia called Yisrael. Yisrael are born from the ”house of Hashem”. Here they cleave in ” the portion of יהוה is His people”. So they may inherit what is fit for them of Torah and mitzvot from treasury of Hashem this is their crown. This treasury is from the 32 paths Chuchmah. 9

Know, The Vilna Gaon, the Holy Ar”i and others parallel the Hebrew months with the order of the encampment of the tribes in the desert. According to this calculation, Tevet, corresponds to the tribe of Dan.

The 100 blessings are Light floating on בשר (flesh) with 2 צירי (Vowel of Binna). From this the Yesod of Imma descends to Zu”n. Then He is called יהו”ה אלהי”ם.10 Those who walk in the ways of “avoda zara” (strange worship) the way of Hashem being strange to them. Then the way of Hashem will not rest in their hearts.1 In the Parsha it says “Behold the children of Israel will not listen to me, so why will Pharaoh listen to me, I have blocked lips.” Rashi explains that this is one of 10 kal v’chomers (all the more so) that are mentioned in the Torah. These correspond to the 10 sefirot. In chapter 7 verse 28 Moshe is told to threaten Pharaoh that the Nile will swarm with frogs which will come into your house and in your bedroom and on your bed and into the house of your servants and your people and your ovens and your kneading troughs. ובמשארותיך  (kneading troughs) is the longest word in the whole 5 books of Moses, being the only 10 letter word, in the holy Torah. Nothing in the Torah is just coincidental. On passach we put the “Afikomen” on our shoulders as we did with the kneading troughs. Concerning the plague of  frogs, they were obliged to act in a  manner the opposite of nature  to sanctify the name of God, it is written (Exodus 7:28): ‘And they shall go up and come into your house, and into your sleeping chamber, and upon your bed, and into the house of your servant, and among your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading dough’; Since when do frogs  not take heed for their lives but choose to enter  into the hot ovens !. how much more shall we who are in duty bound and are commanded to sanctify God’s name, do such a thing! Concerning the plague of  frogs, they were obliged to act in a  manner the opposite of nature  to sanctify the name of God, it is written (Exodus 7:28): ‘And they shall go up and come into your house, and into your sleeping chamber, and upon your bed, and into the house of your servant, and among your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading dough’; Since when do frogs  not take heed for their lives but choose to enter  into the hot ovens !. how much more shall we who are in duty bound and are commanded to sanctify God’s name, do such a thing!

It appears  that there was a great  need for miracles in the time of the Redemption from Egypt. This is because  of the great spiritual decline experienced by the Children of Israel while in Egypt. As Egypt was thoroughly saturated with sorcery and this caused a weakened level of faith. The land was so full of idolatry that Scripture says: “And Moses said to him (Pharaoh), when I leave the city I will raise up my hands,” and the Sages (Shemot Rabbah 12) comment that from here it is clear that Moses did not want to pray within the borders of Egypt because it was infested with idolatry. He could not find a suitable place to pray.
The Sages also teach (Kiddushin 49b): “Ten measures of sorcery descended upon the world and Egypt took nine.” This is explicitly stated in the Torah (Exodus 7:11): “Pharaoh summoned his scholars and magicians. The master symbolists were able to do the same thing with their magic tricks.” And when Moses wanted to perform a sign and a miracle before Pharaoh, the Egyptian ruler responded: “You are bringing straw to “Apharim”, a town already abundant with straw” This is like bringing magic to Egypt, a land already abundant with sorcery. The Sages furthermore teach (Sanhedrin 67b): “Why are they called sorcerers “MeKhashfim” (magicians) ?Because the word ‘MeKhashfim’ is made up of the initials of the Hebrew words “they defy the Heavenly court”.

   According to the Ramban, God only hardened Pharoes’s heart after the fifth plague. Pharoe was a gluten for punishment of plagues, by his own free will, he just could not get enough? From this we learn that It is our own free will that allows us to constantly look for an excuse to say it was not God who caused this to happen but just chance. Making one unable to learn from a “God given” providential lesson. We just need to open our eyes and to the truth that is before us, instead of looking for excuses to dismiss it. One needs to recognize that every event is orchestrated by God, personally for them then they will be ready for every amazing event !

The Jewish people have experienced four great exiles: Babylon; Persia and Media; Greece, and our current and longest exile — that of Rome and its cultural heirs. These four exiles are hinted to in the verse in this week’s Torah portion, “And I will bring you out, and I will rescue you, and I will redeem you and I will take you…” These verses in our parsha take US out of exile  !

It is stated in the Zohar concerning the Mashiach ” the nations shall seek him, as within him is the secret of the Divine name.” The Metsudat David explains that there will be given power from Atik Yomim , The Ancient of days, to Messiach to rule over the nations, and they will serve him, and none will transgress. He will be victorious.

PARSHAH SHAMOT (THE BOOK OF NAMES) ——– THE SECRET OF GOD’S NAMES


PARSHAH SHAMOT (THE BOOK OF NAMES) ——– THE SECRET OF GOD’S NAMES


Filed under: PARSHA SHEMOT -SMOTParsha Shmot



Filed under: AharonParsha Shmot | Tags: DIVINE NAMESKabbalahLIFE COACHINGPARSHA SMOTSECRETS OF THE TORAHwisdom

BEFORE WE GO VERY DEEP, Here are some INTERESTING POINTS :

PHAROE OF THE EXILE WAS MOST CRUEL 

“Pharoe then commanded all his people saying: ‘Every boy who is born must be thrown into the river; but every girl shall be allowed to live.’”(Numbers 1:22)

Pharaoh’s astrologers told him. “Today the Hebrew’s savior was born, we do not know if he is a Egyptians or a Jew. According to Rashi, The Egyptians male children were also drowned, just like the Jewish children. Thus is is written

“Every son that will be born must be thrown into the water”

and it does not say: “Every son born to the Hebrews” Pharoe was really bad man one can not underestimate evil. Moses was a very good man. The Torah relates that a Mitzri taskmaster was whipping a Jew. Moses saw and  killed the wicked taskmaster. Rashi tells us the Jew Moses saved , who was being whipped was the husband of Shilomit bat Divri. Shilomit was the only woman throughout the Egypt exile who was raped. The commentaries explain that she was overly friendly with the Egyptians and did not maintain a healthy distance. The Jew Moses risked his life for was not one held in the highest esteem, but for him Moses gave up his place in Pharoes palace and put his own life in danger. Another important lesson :

In Pirkei Avot (Saying Of Our Fathers) we learn: In a place where there are no men, endeavor to be a man. This is telling us that when nobody stands up to care for the needs of the community then those who are capable must take that responsibility upon themselves and do what needs to be done.

We see this with Moses. In our parsha we read:

“It was in those days when Moshe was grown that he began to go out to his brothers and he saw their burden. He saw an Egyptian beating one of his Israeli brothers. He looked all around and when he saw that no man was there, he killed the Egyptian and hid his body in the sand.”

  It says “He saw that no man was there”

There was nobody to turn to during this difficult time. There was nobody who would step up and save the man who was being beaten. Therefore Moshe took it upon himself to save the man who was being beaten by killing the Egyptian.

There comes a time when one must do the right thing

We see this also with Batya the daughter of Pharoe 

When Pharaoh’s daughter drew baby Moses from the water in the basket. By this she was rebelling against here father’s decree (to kill the baby boys) and adopted Moshe. The fact that Pharaoh’s daughter still wanted Moses twenty four months later shows further that this action of saving Moses was not something she did impulsively.  BatYa, Pharoe’s daughter, is the heroine in her generation. She saves the baby Jewish boy, Moses, raises him in Pharoe’s palace as her son,  educates him to know his heritage and to feel for his fellow Jews. According to the Ba’al Haturim   BatYa had gone down to the river to convert to Judaism, when she found Moses. Looking deeper into Batyah Pharoe’s daughter we find her mentioned in Divrei Hayamim (Chronicles) we read.

: “And his wife, the Jewish woman, bore Yered, the father of Gador and Hever, the father of Sokho and Yekutiel, the father of Zanoach. And these are the sons of Batyah the daughter of Pharaoh whom Mered took.” (Chapter 4 : 18)

In Vayikra Raba 1:3, we learn that Mered is the same person as Calev. He’s called “Mered” (Rebel) Since Calev (along with Yehoshua ben Nun) rebelled against the spies and did not speak badly about the Land of Israel. Calev saved the “sheep”, the nation of Israel by his bravery and Pharaoh’s daughter saved the shepherd ,Moses. Calev, like Moses and Batyah when the time came to stand up and do the right thing went and did it. This brings us to another issue. The story of God seemingly wanting to kill Moses because he had not yet circumcised  his son  is one of the the most difficult stories to understand in the Torah. How could God threaten the life of Moses who He had just chosen to lead the Jewish people out of Egypt ? Its written  “And God encountered him and sought to kill him.” It is interesting that Moshe’s name does not appear in this verse.  Who did God want to kill ?

It is strange that nowhere in the Torah does it say the name that Moshe received from his parents at birth ? Why was Moses mostly called by the name he received from the daughter of Israel’s tormentor: “And the child grew and they brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he was a son to her, and she called him Moses for from the water I drew him” (Shmot 2:10). Not only this.  The Torah also omits Moshe’s original name.  The Torah also does not tell us the names of his parents, Amram and Yocheved, at first only telling us “a man of the house of Levi” and “a daughter of Levi” (Shmot 2:1)  They are introduced to us with striking anonymity. A similar anomaly is found with Moses’s family. Moses’s brother is not known at all until Exodus 4:14. Moses’s sister also remains nameless for another fourteen chapters (15:1) Whats this all about ?

Smot

“Shemot”, the Hebrew title of the Book of Exodus, means “names”, suggesting how significant the issue of identity will be as the saga of Jewish slavery, redemption and revelation unfolds. Shemot opens with a list of the names of the Children of Israel as they came down to Egypt, counting each individual within those families: “Now all those descended from Jacob were seventy souls, and Joseph, who was in Egypt.” A name says alot it defines and even more a name is a vessel for what something is. In “Smot” are revealed many names of God, those revealed and hidden. In the Book of Smot we will learn how powerful Divine names are, and how they can help us build a world of greater consciousness and conscientiousness. The act of naming opens the potential for relationship, this is very “special” with Divine names. The appropriate use of names can bring redemption. God taught Moses various Divine names and their meanings to prepare him for his role as the  liberator who could perform the needed miracles.

   The Torah does NOT delve into the  details of the  depravity of the Egyptian exile because they are not the point of the story, the point of the story is God’s works and the coming redemption.  So the details concerning the slavery of Yisrael in Egypt are few, but all the plagues against Egypt are discussed. But the Egyptian exile is a model for all other exiles. So lets look at how exile works. Pharaoh begins a multi staged plan of isolation and oppression in order to estrange the people of Israel from Egyptian society. This dehumanization of the Jews is one of the ways of anti sematism, the Torah sets the stage by saying the Egyptians looked at Israel as if it were a colony of insects: “The Children of Israel were fruitful and swarmed and increased and became very strong, and the land became filled with them.” Viewed in such a light, the nation of Israel arouses disgust in the Egyptian people. Pharaoh then tries to get the Hebrew midwives to kill all newly born males. From here it is a small step indeed to the final solution. How terribly reminiscent of our people’s recent history. First the dehumanization, the terrible propaganda, that ascribed the name of enemy to an entire people. Friends, neighbors, business partners, great thinkers to the Germans they learned to see all these people as nothing but Jews, the object of their hate. This alienation facilitated the removal of German Jews from society, or in our parsha Egyptian Jews. In Germany the ultimate consequence was concentration camps and the giving of numbers to each individual, utterly obliterating any sense of individual names for Jews at all. By Jews keeping their Hebrew names during the period of enslavement, the Israelites prevented total assimilation into Egypt. Even today most “secular” Jews have a Hebrew name.

  The main thing is not the troubles that come upon us for our sins or various other reasons, but God’s redemption for us from them. It is this which we should notice and be thankful to God for. Its also strange that the Torah does not say the name that Moshe received from his parents at birth ? Why was Moses mostly called by the name he received from the daughter of Israel’s Pharaoh. As its written  “And the child grew and they brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he was a son to her, and she called him Moses for from the water I drew him” (Shmot 2:10). Not only this.  The Torah also omits Mose’s original name.  The Torah also does not tell us the names of his parents, Amram and Yocheved, at first only telling us “a man of the house of Levi” and “a daughter of Levi” (Shmot 2:1)  They are introduced to us with striking anonymity. A similar anomaly is found with Moses’s family. Moses’s brother is not known at all until Exodus 4:14. Moses’s sister also remains nameless for another fourteen chapters (15:1) Whats this all about ?

  Each (higher soul) Nashama reveals torah according to the source of its soul. These seventy faces of the Torah parallel the seventy children of Yaakov who entered Egypt. These souls express themselves as sixty myriad. It needs to be mentioned that Batyah daughter of Pharoe risked her own life to rescue Moses, against her father’s ruling and her maidservants’ advice. Thank God she did as Moses included all these source souls so he knew all 600,000 explanations to the Torah.1 The Torah Moses was given in ”pardes” (the orchard-variety of levels of Torah) He taught to all Yisrael. All ”chidushim” (new ideas) in the Torah are through the Nashama of Moses that illuminates in each and every Righteous person sadeek by Moses’s הוד (horns of light) קרני in each and every generation.1 Dat (knowledge) is where Moses spreads out to the 600,000 root souls of Yisrael. One sees the Shechiniah Divine Presence according to their dat. The humility of Moses attained all levels of dat , by attaining all levels of humility. By recognizing he was only flesh and unable to do “avodat Hashem” (service God) he came to be dependent on the “chayot” (angels of the ruach). This is how the merit of moses is earned.2 Moses was joined with mida (attribute) called by the name צור which is Malchut.3 Rabbi Yisrael Rozin teaches that one who serves Hashem (God) and learns Torah by their own power will not have the help of Hashem. In truth these things are ruled by the power of Holiness and when accomplished properly they are not doing the work at all, but Hashem does. Hashem walks before him giving him Dat and intellectual powers, He walks before him. Hashem sanctifies him at all times more and more by him subduing himself and his humility. In truth he is nullified to Hashem, he becoming טפל (himself being secondary).4 In the parsha we see how Moses cares not only for the welfare of his own people but Moses intervenes to save the daughter’s of Yitro  from their tormentors .Moses has nothing to do with this conflict between other peoples. Having fled Egypt, he was a refugee, and could have stood idly by. But his sense of justice demanded him to act.. Moses makes no distinction between nationalities or territories. He feels that justice must be done even it does nothing to further his own interests. Moshe sets the correct example on how to conduct one’s self. The Torah teaches us that a leader like Moses has focus on the interests of no only his own people but he does not turn a blind eye to the suffering of gentiles. By this The Torah conveys a  profound message to future generations. Moses did not tremble when he heard the sound of a angel or the Supernal King.5 If, in the days of the horrific Egyptian exile if Moses and others could rise up and find various ways of saying “enough is enough”, we could and should we in any circumstance. As the we were at our lowest point as Egyptian Slave and Egypt was then the greatest empire at the time. Moses went up to the firmament and learned Torah from the angel Matto”t every day near sunset for 40 days. During that time Moses spent 1000 years learning the secret ot Matto”t . Matto”t showed him things of the depth תהום which he could not understand, such as how many letters are between א and מ ?.6 The 49 gates of Binna (understanding) are 49 faces of purity from Matto”t it is the vowel ”cholem”. Moses is Teferet (harmony-beauty) as it says ”a crown of Teferet on his head”. All light of Torah is revealed from Binna (Divine understanding) dressing in Teferet. This is the secret of Z’a (source of the emotional soul called Ruach) and Moses. The 50 gates illude to the 2 ”Yichudim” (unification of God in the worlds) of the ”sma”. At the 50th gate vessels turn to light, becouse of a lack of malchut of malchut of vessels and a lack of Ketter of ketter of lights.The 50th gate reveals complete tikun (fixing correction). The first ה of יהו”ה has 50 gates Bina. Matto”t in “Malachim” (angels) is the aspect of Moses among ”Nashamot”.(higher level of soul-Divine intellect)7 Before there was created the world all the “ruchot” (spirits) of Sadeekem were hidden in the ”Nashamot” of sadeekem.8 The soul of Moses goes out from its ark which is ”hachel Lavanot Hasaphir” (first palace in the world of Bria) which is ”chasmal” (Small still voice) called flesh. This ark is made to Imma (The source of your Nashama Divine intellect). The ark is the 248 limbs. בשר (flesh) is dinim (judgments), that are given measure for measure. The portion to Z’a cleansed is called chashmal, the portion not cleansed is called Noga. Chasmal and Noga are 2 separate parzufim. The aspect בשר is אלהים it is ”mochin” of ”yonika” which is only 6 corners of Bina that makes ג”ר of Ruach. בשר is ב– dat, ש– chuchmah and ר– bina. These being three ”Meloy” of אלהים , with י which is ”moch” ) brain) 6 corners of Chuchmah (Divine creative wisdom) is gematria ש .These are the ”chayot of consuming fire”. ”Meloy” ה “moch” Binna it has no chassadim and ”meloy” א is ”moch” Dat, it has chassadim and givurot . Chuchmah must be enclosed in Chuchmah to revealed. Achoryim of אלהים is gematria ר , it is inside Chasmal. From Z’a of Bria till the end of Malchut are 120 sarufim ”Elokim Kadoshim”. Outside these is Chasmal. Chasmal is names of אלהים. Its interesting to note that deliverance comes from within the source of destruction.  The river where  Jewish babies were drowned becomes the river where the Jewish people’s future redeemer, Moses is rescued.  Pharaoh’s house, the source of so many decrees of evil and suffering, becomes the place where the future redeemer of the Jewish people came from and may we see our righteous Messiah in a complete redemption.

With the opening of the book of “Shemot” (EXODUS), we transition from “Bereshit”, the story of the family, to “Shemot”, the story of the nation. It is a shift in the meaning of “Bnei Yisrael,” from “the children of the man named Yisrael,” to “The Nation of Israel. It is interesting to note who it is that refers to us in this way. It is Pharaoh. We are first called the Jewish people a nation, a people. A  non Jew and not just any non-Jew, but one who is out to destroy us, Pharoe of Egypt   As its written : “Behold, the people , the Israelites ,are greater than we They might join our enemies; they might wage war upon us..” (Exodus 1:9) .

The Ar”i teaches in Safer lekutim that there are seventy aspects of evil, corresponding to the seventy nations, and the Jews must be exiled through all of them in order gather all the souls that fell into each particular form of evil. So why do we speak of only four exiles. In fact the Jewish people were exiled amongst all seventy nations, as is known?

There are four letters in the Name Havayah, which are the source from which the 72 Names Havayah are manifest, as well as the 72 other Divine Names, which are branches from these roots. These four letters in the Name Havayah, are the four rivers of the Garden of Eden. Similarly, in the realm of evil, there are four rivers, by the same names the Pishon, the Gichon, (the Tigris, and the Euphrates). Which divide (flow) into seventy nations. Our sages say: Pishon refers to the Babylonian empire. The river name of the second river Gichon’— refers to the Medean empire or persia etc. Since all seventy nations are included within these four “rivers” therefore the entire Jewish people were exiled to each of these four nations Babylonia, Medea, Greece, and Rome. But the other seventy nations are just particulars and branches of these, and each of these other nations took only one type of soul When Yisrael will finish gathering all the souls from amongst the seventy nations, it will be the time when “His feet shall stand on Mount Zion,” as mentioned in the Zohar and then the verse, “Death will be swallowed up forever” will be fulfilled.

PARSHA VAYISHLACH

THE “JABBOK” ——- THE JABBOK RIVER-THERE BIBLICAL JACOB FOUGHT THE DEVIL AND WON !


Filed under: IsraelJABBOKkaballahParsha VayishlachUncategorizedYAVOK | Tags: ArchaeologyJABBOKKabbalahParshah VayishlachRIVER JABBOK

YAVAK

The  Biblical Jacob crossed the JABBOK river on his way to Canaan. There he fought the angel called the ס”ם, also known as the Adversary , the Satan and won.

WHATS THIS WHOLE THING REALLY ABOUT !

The JABBOK river or in Hebrew  יַבֹּק is a tributary of the Jordan from the east, the first river south of the Yarmuk. The Hebrew name is derived either from the root meaning  a sound imitating the noise of water flowing over pebbles. Some identify  the JABBOK river with The Zarqa River is identified with the biblical Biblical Jacob crossed the Jabbok on his way to Canaan, after leaving Harran. It leads west into the Sukkot Valley, from where one crosses over the Jordan and can easily reach Shechem, as Jacob eventually did. Its modern name is Wady Zirka. But there are those who say that the river is fordable at many points, save when in full flood. The particular ford referred to in Genesis 32 cannot now be identified. But it is said that the Modern City in Israel called  Adam or Tel ed-Damiyeh, A city on the Jordan River beside Zarethan mentioned in the Bible in Josh 3:16 with the parting of the Jordan. It is also mentioned in and Hosea 6:7. The city has been identified by many with Tel ed-Damiyeh on the western bank of the river, just below the mouth of the Jabbok and about 18 miles north of Jericho. In the Book of Joshua 3:16 it states that “The waters which came down from above stood [and] rose up upon an heap very far from the city Adam, that [is] beside Zaretan: and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, [even] the salt sea, failed, [and] were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho.”

The ADAM, or could be translated CITY OF “red” is  A city in the middle of the Jordan valley near “ZARETHAN” (Josh 3:16), The name probably survives at the Damieh Ford, near the mouth of the Jabbok twenty miles above Jericho. An Arabian historian asserts that about 1265 AD the Jordan was here blocked by a land slide. The inner gorge of the Jordan is here narrow with high banks which would facilitate such an obstruction as permitted the waters to “pile up” above to Adam and run out below, permitting Joshua’s host to cross on dry land.https://www.bible-history.com/isbe/A/ADAM,+CITY+OF/

Also the City of Adam stood “beside Zarethan”  on the east bank of the Jordan is called “Damia”. According to the Book of Joshua, the flow of the water was arrested, and rose up “upon an heap” at the time of the Israelites passing over.

YABBOK in Hebrew also means a ford in a river , a place where people may pass over the river at that spot. A ford is a shallow place with good footing where a river or stream may be crossed by wading, or inside a vehicle getting its wheels wet.  Fords may be impassable during high water.

What we are really talking about is how to Ford a River  , how to make a safe and successful river crossing. IN THIS CASE A SPIRITUAL ONE— HERE IS A MAP— ENOUGH FOR THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND …………

ENCOUNTERS WITH “ASEV” — WHO IS “EDOM” SECRETS OF VAYISLACH

THINGS ARE NOT AS THEY APPEAR

Yaakov’s (Jacob’s) bed originally was in the tent of Rachel and upon her death Yaakov brought his bed into the tent of her maidservant Bilhah, seeing her as the link to Rachel. Reuven could not tolerate him choosing Bilhah, a lowly maidservant in his eyes, over Leah the matriarch of the Jewish people, his mother. So he moved Yaakov‘s bed into the tent of his mother Leah. Reuven never actually slept with Bilha, God forbid, That would have been an unpardonable offense – “rather he moved around the bed of his father and Torah considers it as if he had slept with her” as said in Gemore Shabbat.

“Yaakov avinu” spent a total of 36 years in exile from the time he left Yitzhak and Rivkah, his father and mothers house. He spent 14 years at the Yishivah (school) of Shem and Ever, before going to the house of Lavan. At Lavan’s house Yaakov work 14 years for Lavan so he could marry Rachel and Leah. He worked a additional 6 years making his fortune and fathering 11 of his children, as Benyamin was born in the land of Israel. It took him 2 years to travel back to “Aretz Yisrael” (The land of Israel). You can come back to Israel

Rachel died as Yaakov entered “Aretz Yisrael”, as the Torah says its forbidden to be married to 2 sisters at the same time. Concerning this the Ramban says the Holy air of “Aretz Yisrael” would not tolerate Yaakov’s 2nd wife. Our parsha tells us Yaakov sent the Angels to Asev to let Asev know God was with him, at the same time he wanted to appease his brother. Yakov was scared  since he took the  blessings, as well as he also took Leah to be his wife and at one point, she was destined to marry Eisav, so Yakov bowed before Asev and called Asev his master 8 times. God said to Yaakov “ Since you humiliated yourself  eight times by referring to his brother as your  master . your  offspring will be punished and be ruled eight times by a kingship from Eisav ‘s offspring, before the first king of Israel ,Shaul comes to rule.” Benyamin was not yet born and  is the only one who never bowed to Eisav . Binyamin merited  to have The Holy Temple  built in his portion of land in Israel.

Our sages tell us from Barashit (Genesis) we can see many things about the way one should live in this world as is shown there by the examples of our forefathers. In this parsha a point is made by the Holy One, Blessed is His Name to show us that the descendants of Avraham Yitzchak and Yaakov are separate and different from the other nations of the world. In the parsha it is clearly drawn that from Asev comes the people of Edom as it is written ” These are the generations of Asev who is Edom”. “Asev” (Esau), is a reincarnation of Cain. Edom means red, the sages say this describes their blood thirsty nature. Rome descended from Edom. If we spell Rome in Hebrew ”רם“ this has the numerical value of 240 which is the same numerical value as Amalak. Amalak is the countervailing, th \e opposite force in the world to Yisrael. They are now a transmigratory group of souls whose nature is to hate Jews, the nation of Yisrael and GOD. This would all make much sense since the Zohar tells us that Asev is of the side of defilement. Yisrael on the other hand the Zohar tells us means ”princehood and strength”. The Parsha of Chayei Sarah concludes with the chronicles of Ishmael, Toldot concludes with Esau’s marriage to Ishmael’s daughter,  Parsha Vayishlach concludes with the chronicles of Esau. It details Esau’s family line and the leaders and nations that would descend from him, concluding with Magdiel, founder of Rome.

The angel Yaakov wrestled gave him this name Yisrael. The Zohar tells us the angel gave Yaakov this name so that he could prevail over anyone. From this we can learn a lesson as Yaakov faced a conflict here, namely having to fight a Angel. From this conflict came good tidings, as Yaakov received a blessing of power from the Angel. Notice that Yakov asked the angel a question “what is your name”, the angel would not answer. As we know that the angel Yaakov fought was the angel of Asev, the angel associated with evil. It does not like us to ask spiritual questions and prefers that we stay in the “dark” Yakov was not willing to stay in the dark. The true Nature of Yakov and all Yisrael is to Love God and fight Evil, even if risk is involved. The way of Torah is serving God down in this physical world and at times things can get dirty, and down here. When we ask questions we can then grow in the light that the answer reveals. Yakov was the first person able to serve god in love while at the same being attacked by and fighting against evil. The strategy of the Angel of Asev is to keep us stupid spiritually. It desires us to not even think about God and the eternal life of the soul.  So don’t give in to the angel of Asev but ask spiritual questions grow and learn. While you still can. In Gemore Chulin 91a it says there that Jacob’s thighs were hurt – the right thigh or both thighs is not clear.

When the Holy One puts obstacles in our path we should be joyous since we know that by overcoming these difficulties we will be better off than before. It is by overcoming temptations and turning instead to bring light into the world Yisrael is strengthened. From the parsha we can see ways to overcome these obstacles as when Yaakov was going to meet Asev he split his party into groups so to be able to survive a attack. In Safer Giloya Raza its written that the sages added to the Amida a prayer that our enemies be uprooted and shattered. He says they did this so advise us that we must destroy our enemies, and that to pray against them is not enough. It will not even help, unless we war with them. He also sent Asev gifts and most important he got up at night. At the time which the Zohar speaks concerning saying “when the north wind blows” the breath of Gan Aden (Garden of Eden), Chuchmah the first flash of creative inspiration that guides universal consciousness. It was to this that Yaakov rose so that there he could there evoke a will of GOD that would be most favorable for Yisrael. Such that would enable him to overcome Asev and stop him from wanting to do harm to Yisrael. The time most appropriate for revelation of Chuchmah of secrets is at midnight. The proper way to get comprehension of the Torah is to be occupied in Torah at midnight. This is the main time for learning Torah. As this is a time of favorable will to know secrets of the Torah. Its a Torah party. Rabbi Ashlag teaches from the Zohar that at night the eyes whose light is chuchmah (Divine creative inspiration) are closed, this is because of judgments so they are not able to illuminate because of diminishment of divine flow, so people sleep. Sleep is drawn from the ruling of the burning of Gehenem (Hell), which makes a closing to the Nashama (soul of Divine intellect). These do not dress in the supernal light as it is not enjoined to them. Learning Torah at night and carefully saying the ”Sma” (meditation on Unity of God) will help you rise to be occupied in Torah after midnight. At midnight is given light of the left from Ima divine understanding, specifically Chuchmah from the left of ima. It’s the vowel “shuruk”. This is the power of sight that can open the eyes, but for this light to illuminate it requires chassadim. Which is the force of GOD’s giving. The power which has us do Mitzvot.1 In the Torah its written “Yaakov Avenu sent angels before him to his brother Eisav”. The Midrash brought by Rashi tells us that the Group of angels assaulted Eisav and his men shoving them, the “Malachim” (angels) asked of Eisav’s men, “whose men are you?”, they answered, Eisav’s. They proceeded to beat them. “stop”, the men cried, “Eisav is the son of Yitzchok”. The Malachim paid them no heed. “He is the grandson of Avrohom”, this also produced no letup. Finally they conceded, “He is the brother of Yaakov”. The Malachim replied, “If so, then you are one of ours”. Eisav’s true nature is that of being Yaakov’s other half, working together towards the goal of uniting the world under the banner of “Kavod Shamayim” (The Glory of God). He choses to ignore and cover up his true self,  under many layers. The beating of the Malachim peeled away these layers and revealed his inner self. For that moment, after being stripped to the core, he was aware of of his true self. And the Malachim pronounced upon him the title of being “one of ours”. Some times God forces people into coming into grips with reality, by providence. Yaakov Avenu achieved success in his endeavor. Eisav’s mercy was  aroused. The impact of this encounter is being felt up to this very day.

Yakov’s meeting with Asev in this week’s parsha  teaches us about all confrontations to come with Asev to our present today. The word in the Torah for smite, when Yaakov fears Asev attacking is “והכהו”, Whether we read it forwards or backwards, it is the same word. In  Da’at Chachamim its says this is so as  Every blow, that the gentiles inflict on Am Yisroel, will eventually rebound and hit them back.

It is not easy even for the most beloved of Hashem Yaakov Avinu look what he had to go through he survived living with Lavan for twenty years, fought an entire night with the angel of Eisav, living through a confrontation with Eisav, Yaakov  went to the city called  Shechem and then Shechem son of Chamor (literally, “son of a donkey”) raped Ya’akov’s daughter, Dinah, and kidnapped her. From that crisis came another catastrophe after Levi and Shimon: killed all the men of Shechem , Then Yaakov feared retaliation by all the nations of Canaan. It is not easy even for the most beloved of Hashem Yaakov Avinu so don’t be surprised when facing difficulties just “serve Hashem”. The child conceived by Dinah and Schem  was named Osnot. Osnot ended up, in the house of Potiphar and later married Yosef. From Yosef and Osnot, Menashe and Ephraim were born. The God has ways of doing things we would never come up with , by this know personal and national salvation may only be a moment away !

Know, Lavan was Bilam’s grandfather and Beor was Bilam’s father and Yitro was Balak’s grandfather. These people are closely related. Aspects of Jacob and Esau are in all of us and they  stand in perpetual battle. Soul against body, the scholar and the warrior – the body’s selfish drives and the soul’s share and transcend. These 2 voices are always pulling us in opposite directions.Should I take  or give to another?  Am I here to serve myself or to serve God or only myself ?

When Esav heard that Yaakov was wealthy, he desired to take possession of his wealth. The lesson is don’t show off, unless you are looking for problems.

Preparing to meet Asev Yaakov divided everything that he owns and cherished into two camps, placing  each camp  1 day apart  (24 hours) . in order to save the 2nd camp in the event of a war with Eisav. We can learn from this that if we face difficulties,  space them out, so to not be overcome. In the  24 hours is  amazing secrets. The number 24 hints to the permutations of the name Yhv”h and And”y, the number of books in  תנ”ך – The Bible, which includes  The Torah 5 books, 8 books of  The Prophets and  11 books of The Writings. Interesting pure gold is 24 Karat,  the Torah known as Gold! The earth turns counterclockwise  on its axis ,approx. 23.5°,  once in every 24 hours a day. At Earth’s equator, the speed of Earth’s spin is about 1,000 miles per hour that’s 24,000 miles a day !

  In the parsha we see clearly Asev becomes the nation of Edom and Yaakov becomes Yisrael. Our parasha concludes with a list of the descendants of Esau, indicating his exclusion from the covenant of Abraham .  It is Esau who must now go into exile as its written: “Esau took his wives, his sons and daughters, and all the members of his household, his cattle and all his livestock, and all the property that he had acquired in the land of Canaan, and went to another land because of his brother Jacob”(36:6).  Jacob, or more correctly, Israel, alone, continues the covenant of Abraham. Asev goes to ”Seir” which the Zohar says refers to a strange God. While Yaakov goes to a place called Succot and then to Kedesh which refers to ”kodesh” (Holiness).

So always Go in the way of KODESH !

PARSHA                                                         Bo

Bs”d

In this parsha is what is most likely the greatest story ever told. The Story of the Hebrews being redeemed by God and taken out of Egypt.  Upon knowledge of this depends the first, of the Ten Commandments to believe in God. For this reason it is written: “I am God that took you out of Egypt…”. Thus all the Commandments, depend on ones’  belief in the Story of the Hebrews being redeemed by God. As by this knowledge, the God of the Hebrews is their Commander and there is reason to do the commandments in His Torah.

Pharaoh was most stubborn he refused to admit that there is a King of the Universe who was the God of the Hebrews. This is because Pharoah is the same letters in Hebrew as ‘arof’ meaning ‘back of the neck’ this alludes to the fact that Pharoe who represents the evil inclination only wants us to see things from a view from the “back”. He wants to keep God and His intentions hidden. He wants us to have nothing to do with the ‘face’ of God  which is called  “Holiness”. He wants to keep us in the “dark” not knowing whats going on “really”. Not recognizing or understanding our personal Divine providence as it effects our lives ! In this week’s Torah reading, we read of the last of the ten plagues of Egypt, the slaying of all Egyptian firstborn. It is only after this, the most gruesome and severe of the plagues, that Pharaoh allows the Israelites to leave Egypt in order to worship God. This tenth plague differs from the rest not only in its severity but also in the events preceding it. The Israelites no longer sit passively witnessing the mighty hand of God. This time, they must perform the commandment of the Paschal lamb before God’s smiting of all the firstborn of Egypt. One must be careful. God provides instructions regarding the blood of the Passover offering in Egypt. . All animal sacrifices in the temple involved the dashing of the slaughtered animal’s blood onto the altar However, in this case,the dashing of blood was  spread on the doorposts and lintel of their houses. The Israelites who, by the spreading of the blood of the Paschal lamb on their doorposts managed to transform their homes into a “mini-temple,” were worthy of being redeemed. In this week’s parsha, Parshas Bo, Pharaoh, his countrymen, and the land of Egypt are further decimated by the three final plagues locusts six days of darkness, and the death of the firstborn.  With the final plague, as death runs rampant throughout the land, Pharaoh , himself a first born, fearing for his own life finally  allows the Israelites to go free. Rabbi  Hirsch teaches  until now the plagues done by God in Egypt, the  signs and wonders, were  brought about by God’s agents, as though messengers. Now He Himself steps forth to kill the first born of Egypt.

 Some plagues were directed against things the Egyptians worshiped as gods. The Rambam explains that the Egyptians worshiped Aries, and therefore abstained from killing sheep, and held shepherds in contempt. As the constellation of Aries is the lamb. Compare ‘Behold we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians,’ etc. (Exodus 8:26); ‘For every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians’ (Genesis 46:34).  Some sects among the Sabeans worshipped demons, and imagined that these assumed the form of goats, and called them therefore ‘goats’ [se’irim].  For this reason those sects abstained from eating goats’ flesh.  This was also the case in the first two plagues. The Nile was personified in ancient Egypt as the god Hapi, and was worshiped as the source of fertility. The plague of frogs would have been associated by the Egyptians with Heket, the goddess who was believed to attend births as a midwife, and who was depicted as a woman with the head of a frog.By the  ninth plague the greatest god in the Egyptian pantheon  Ra , the sun god is shown false.  Egypt’s people believed they were ruled by the sun. Its human ruler, was Pharaoh they believed was semi-divine, the child of the sun god.  The darkening of the sun signaled that there was a power greater than Ra.

In the very beginning of our parsha GOD informs Moses to go into pharoe and GOD than tells Moses that he will harden his heart to his requests. This happens time and time again. One can only ask what is going on ? What is the use of even going in to Pharoe and asking to “let the people go”, if there is not even a chance of Pharoe conceding to his request. Moses went to Pharoe time and time again asking to “let the people go” only each time to face failure. The Aor ha Chyim says Moses must have despaired. From here we can obviously learn a number of lessons. Take to heart that like Moses, even when we go on a mission to accomplish something that is in accordance with the will of GOD. We may find that it may come only after great difficulty.We must serve GOD with joy even if the difficulties we face create situations that could lead to despair. We must serve GOD with joy and not despair. We can see from the occurrences in our parsha that the difficulties we face are also part of GOD’s plan. We can grow from such things that “appear” as problems, by drawing joy from GOD’s wellsprings. Thus negating the despair, as we know that this too is GOD’s will. Through this one learns to illuminate the darkest hour, and how to reach deep into the well of GOD’s delight. When one faces “low tides”, hard times one realizes GOD is blessing through withholding his blessing. By this we grow and our soul reaches to its source in the delight of GOD in its root and source. When we need to reach far above to see the light.   It says “and the people took the dough before it was leavened, the kneading troughs bound in there clothes on their shoulders. And the children of Isreal did according to the word of Moses and asked the Egyptians for Jewels, silver, gold and raiment. And GOD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Sight referring to Chuchmah (Creative Divine inspiration). As when we make GOD’s will our own. Then being joined with it, so to the will of GOD all around us becomes fulfilled in Chuchmah from which the world is created continually which is fulfilled according to our needs. From this we see when we take our dough, representing our physical concerns and give them less priority then our spiritual concerns when they come into conflict. GOD blesses us in the Physical in more ways than we can imagine. As Yisrael walked out of Egypt in possession of all its physical wealth. The taking  possession of all Egypt’s physical wealth happened during the plague of darkness. For the Jews there was light but with all the Egyptians there was terror of a darkness that could be felt. They could not move at all. The darkness, imposed a rigid horrifying isolation upon the Egyptians. The Torah says  “they did not see one another.” (Exodus 10:23) All communication ceased. No one had family, friend, society to turn to all were completely and utterly blacked out alone.  In Midrash Rabba Rabbi Nehemia says the darkness  came from darkness below–the darkness of Gehinnom, as the verse says: “A land covered with darkness, the shadow of death, and disorder.” When taking the money in the plague of darkness 2/3 of the Hebrews died.

The dough which was to become matza they put in their garments, on their shoulders. Just as we are instructed by the sages to put the Afficomen (last matzah of pessach seder) on our shoulders and then hide it. The eating of the afficomen is called in the seder tzphon (hiddeness). Thus we see when we take our physical concerns as said before and put them aside, as the afficomen is put aside till later in the seder. Then after we are satiated we eat the afficomen which is called in the seder tzphon (hiddeness) then we shall inherit the tzphon (hiddeness) of GOD as described in the song of songs “The cleft of the rock, in the secret of the stairs” reaching to the heights of Godly vision yielding the most profound delight. Thus will be fulfilled again as said in our parsha “And it came to pass on that very day it came to pass, that all the hosts of Yhv”h went out from the land of Egypt. It is a night of watchfulness to Yhv”h for bringing them out of the land of Egypt. This is a night of watching kept to Yhv”h by all the people of Israel throughout their generations.” Thus we will see as our sages say the redemption from the final exile will be like that from Egypt.

God said to Moshe and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, “This month shall be for you the beginning of the months, it shall be for you the first of the months of the year.” (EXODUS 12:1-2)

This commandment  of establishing time in creation the calendar and sanctifying time with holy-days, is the first mitzvah given to the Jews as a nation. SO DO NOT WASTE TIME BUT BRING THE REDEMPTION CLOSER QUICKER !

The Shechinah is destined to join Hashem when Shelah the descendant of Jacob attains his mature form called Shiloh which is gematria Moshe. Shelah and Shiloh are spelled exactly the same, except that Shiloh possesses an additional י .

Before the Redemption from Egypt The God told the Jews to circumcise themselves and to sacrifice a lamb before leaving Egypt, because both of these acts were done with self-sacrifice and complete trust in God. The lamb sacrifice entailed taking one of the gods of the Egyptians, holding it prisoner for four days, and murdering it before their eyes without fearing the consequences.  Circumcision required inflicting a large painful open bleeding wound in one’s self, just hours before beginning an arduous foot trek into the desert. We see from these 2 acts that redemption comes through self-sacrifice and complete trust in God.

And may we see the face of our righteous Mashiach quickly in our days.
