23. בעשור לחודש ה’תשמ”ב

Based on a Ma’amar of the Tzemach Tzedek. The first three days separated קליפת נוגה from ג’ קליפות הטמאות לגמרי. The fourth day elevates קליפת נוגה in אתכפיא. Eating is אתהפכא.

25. הא לחמא עני’ה ה’תשמ”ב

Class One. The two allusions to Matza in the Haggada, one in Mitzrayim and another as they were leaving. חידוש נפלא הנמצא במאמר זה that אתכפיא is higher than אתהפכא. This is the basis for how we understand הא לחמא עני’ די אכלו אבהתנא בארעא דמצרים. Class Two. The Ma’amar inside. Two Matzos- before and…

26. ונחה ה’תשמ”ב

Class One. The point that separates קריעת ים from לעתיד לבא is, That at Yetzias Mitzrayim what was limited and our initiative was uplifted into clarity like seeing, Emuna and Bittul, while when Moshiach comes, the faith and clarity of seeing will be brought down into our understanding etc. Class Two. In this class we…

The numbers seven, eight and ten. Three levels in Shabbos. These numbers as they apply to days, weeks and years. To Moshe Rabbeinu and Moshiach.

28. כי כאשר השמים החדשים ה’תשמ”ב

1) פתיחת הצינור Opening new gates requires special strength. The Light originally was in the מקום החלל so that when we reveal it the פתיחת הצינור was already made by the Creator. 2) השמים כסאי והארץ הדום רגלי is the same idea. The higher worlds set up and make it possible to reveal Godliness down…

This classic Lag BaOmer Ma’amar is repeated here. חיי עולם וחיי שעה- תורה ותפילה, תפילה וברכה Torah from the top down vs. Tefilla from the bottom up. RaShbI was one of those individuals whose Torah could change the world and it is without much effort. He was (both) lifted up and brought down by the…

30. ויאמר לו יהונתן מחר חודש ה’תשמ”ב

Class One. There are two levels: 1) סוד שרש where everything stays constant לא ישבותו. This is the basis for the sustained order in the world, and it is parallel to the sun, that is a constant but is sustained by יחוד חיצוני. 2) סוד תוספת which is all about חידוש. In order for newness…

31 -ועבדי דוד ה’תשמ”ב -א

This, the first of two [three] Ma’amarim that are based on a Ma’amar of the same title from ה’תרצ”ט 1939, is not normally a Shavuos title and the Rebbe addresses this anomaly. The content of the Maamar with the same title deals with Yehuda and Dovid, Torah and Ma’aseh. which are familiar themes in Chassidus….

32 -ועבדי דוד ה’תשמ”ב -ב

This is the second Ma’amar on this Possuk. In this one the Rebbe develops many new ideas (based on the Tzemach Tzedek’s notes) on the “old theme” of ועבדי דוד. He brings a Gemara that speaks of קיסר ופלגי קיסר Moshiach and an assistant, He also speaks of משה הוא גואל ראשון הוא גואל אחרון…

33. וידבר אלוקים ה’תשמ”ב

Torah of Moshiach on the level of vision follows the darkness of Galus and the preparing for the Torah of…
