100 Brachos This long class explores the idea of 100 Brachos as one of the oldest ‘customs’ Jews have. What it means, why it started, and what is the secret behind it. The class concludes with a wonderful explanation according to Chassidus.
Birchas Hashachar (Introduction)Class One: (thought on Birchas Hashachar)
Wednesday 17 Kislev, 5774/ Nov. 20 2013. Class Two: Introduction to Birchas Hashachar. This class overviews the 15 Birchas HaShachar based on several sources, including the Alter Rebbe’s Shulchan Aruch. We also explore possible reasons for why we say these Brachos every day. The class finishes with Arizal’s idea that this is readying Asiya (and the Malach Matat) for some divine revelation.
