Three מאמחז”ל replete with contradiction: 1) Were the crowns created by Yidden or the Malachim? 2) Were there one, two or three crowns? How DO we reconcile the מדרש שיר השירים that speaks of one crown from Yidden to Hashem נעטרה שעטרה לו אמו ביום חתונתו The גמרא שבת that when Yidden said נעשה קודם…

Class One. This class introduces the essential point of this מאמר. The idea that the beginning and essence of everything is what we give Hashem entirely on our own, this is… 1) תפילה which radiates entirely from the person. 2) הקדימו נעשה לנשמע. The הקדימו, this is what we give Him; consequent of that there…

This is Shavuos Ma’amarim. This, the first of two 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 deals with the same subjects as the Frierdiker Rebbe’s Maamar which deals with Yehuda and…

This is Shavuos Ma’amarim. 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…

This is (being taught) as the third Ma’amar in a Hemshech. This Ma’amar was taught as the third part in a series on Moshiach. In this class we explore Moshiach as a teacher of Torah. All revelation must follow Mitzrayim and concealment in order to reveal. Torah of Moshiach on the level of vision follows…

צאינה וראינה ה’תשמ”ב There are three Midrashim regarding crowns and Mattan Torah, in one there is one crown, in another there are two and in the third there are three. These contradictions are resolved in this Ma’amar. They correspond to serving Hashem with Mesiras Nefesh בכל מאודך in each of the three areas of תורה…

(This is a Yisro Ma’amar) Why was Mattan Torah with so much fan fair and noise? The idea is that Mattan Torah reveals ‘Atzmus’ that breaks ‘The decree that separates the higher from the lower’. The ‘noise’ affects Bittul which is (in a way) the Keli to receive ‘Atzmus’ The Class discusses the change that…

Class One. Moshe’s explaining to the Malachim that they didn’t get the Torah because they don’t have a Yetzer Hara etc, is really about the idea of Dira Bitachtonim. Fortunate is one who comes here (to Gan Eden) with the Talmud in his hand, meaning he brings along the level of Torah connected to action….

Class One This shiur explains the three level of 1) Bitul to Ratzon Prati of the Mitzva, 2) Bitul to the Will for all Mitzvos (as one), 3) Bittul to Hashem (He who has given them the Mitzvos). Class Two. In this class we explore the connection between the three bittuls 1) Ratzon Prati, 2)…

This Erev Shavuos Ma’amar talks about the three steps of 1) Yetzias Mitzrayim, 2) Sefiras HaOmer, 3) Mattan Torah, and argues that in each of these three there was a Koach Elyon that allowed for this event to happen 1) Nigla Alaihem… 2) MiMuchras HaShabbos, the higher than hishtalshelus Koach for Sfira, 3) the ‘Tmimos’…
