Para Aduma is the חוקת כל התורה כולה the ideal way for a yid to live is on the levels of oneness with Hashem called חקיקה engraved. The aspects of Para Aduma develop this philosophy further: 1) Aish and (living) Water are a Keili when all else is purged and the essence alone remains you’re…

(1) This class (the first of two on this Ma’amar) deals with the idea of: לא הי’ צריך להתחיל התורה אלא החודש הזה לכם, ומה טעם פתח בבראשית? משום כח מעשיו הגיד לעמו לתת להם נחלת גויים The Torah doesn’t bring בראשית just to defend a non-Jew’s onslaught, but because the world is where the…

כי תבואו אל ארץ מושבותיכם ה’תשל”ט The Midrash says that this Parsha (of נסכים) was Hashem giving Moshe the instruction and Torah with which to console the Yidden after the מרגלים fiasco. Its consolation has to do with the fact that it is the Torah of Ratzoi and Shov, or Korbanos along with Minchah and…

Class One. To justify creation and the darkness involved we have three ideas: 1) ירידה צורך עלי’ה by going down we go higher 2) נתאוה הקב”ה להיות לו ית’ דירה בחתונים Hashem wants a home in the lowest world 3) Teshuva, The third idea of Teshuva is a must, without it the first two aren’t…

This class is a המשך (continuation from the one before: לכן אמור תשל”ט) In this Maamar the Rebbe adds a fifth level above the four levels of Geula discussed above. More specifically it breaks down into: 1) Iskafia and Ishapcha (the 2 ideas of מצה or סור מרע ועשה טוב) 2) which then becomes four:…

כימי צאתך ה’תשל”ט This Ma’amar addresses the basic question: Didn’t leaving Egypt take one day not many days? The basic answer is that until Moshiach comes we continue leaving Mitzrayim. A) There are limitations of evil. This actually happens in the ONE day. We leave Egypt, this is called מיצר והעלם. B) There are limitations…

ויהי ביום השמיני ה’תשל”ט Class One: This Ma’amar’s heart (ביאור) is about the three numbers: 7, 8, 10. 7 is order and perfection, this is represented by the world as Adam and Chava were in Gan Eden. 8 is what is transcendent of that, this is represented by the work we do now to correct…

והי’ מדי חודש ה’תשל”ט This מאמר is about the constant idea of רצוא ושוב in עבודה which will continue even after משיח comes, but then it will be on an entirely new level. This then is the והי’ מדי חודש בחדשו etc. of לעתיד לבוא. רצוא ושוב on levels where they conflict, on levels where…

מחר חדש ה’תשל”ט Class One: The Torah existed before מתן תורה but we received עוז תושי’ה and שלום to achieve the point of the ביטול הגזירה. The basis for all of this is ביטול. The idea of לאמר that any Yid at any time can recreate the אימה יראה רתת and זיעה of מתן תורה…

בחדש השלישי ה’תשל”ט The day Yidden arrived at Har Sinai two events occurred: 1) ויחן שם ישראל… כאיש אחד בלב אחד Yidden achieved a unity based on a deep ביטול which allowed for מתן תורה to happen 2) ביום הזה there was a revelation of הזה which also (helped) allow מתן תורה to take place….
