16. Habaim Yashreish Yaakov 5747

17. Ki Kaasher Hamayim Hachdashim 5747

20. Vayehi Bishalach Paro 5747 (5771)

Yidden’s golus experience enhanced them in 2 ways 1) they had an Aliya, 2) The birur of the sparks in Mitzrayim, thus- Paro sends us from Egypt once the work is done.

21. Ki Sisa Es Rosh 5747

This is a Maamar for Parshas Shekalim. It explains that the half shekel represents Mesiras Nefesh (self sacrifice) and Teshuva (return). This insight explains why everyone gives the same amount, only a half shekel, is an atonement for our sins and is “Over al haPekudim” (higher than Torah).
