Classes

Class One Hundred and One.

Likutei Sichos vol. 06 page 46 ff. In the aftermath of מכת ברד (for the first time) we find the Pharaoh being remorseful and even penitent. The way the מכת ברד ended reveals levels in the תשובה that the Pharaoh was thinking to do. Did he do the equivalent of תשובה עילעא or only of…

Class One Hundred and Two.

Sefer HaSichos 5752 page 280 ff. This class (only) introduces this Sicha: there is a pattern to how Hashem has Moshe visit the Pharaoh. The first (forth and seventh) He tells him לך… go to the Pharoh at the River. The second (fifth and eighth) He tells him בא… go see him in the palace….

Class One Hundred and Three.

Continued (2). Moshe fears the spiritual evil of Pharaoh which is above קדושה!

Class One Hundred and Four.

Class One Hundred and Five.

Likutei Sichos vol. 31 page 46 ff. מכת חושך is compared to Golus as it relates to the Yidden (as we’ll see in the next class on this Sicha.) Accordingly we discuss how this מכה was a Golus (of sorts) for the Egyptians.

Class One Hundred and Six.

Continued. Inside. Darkness. Two opinions about what is included within the purpose and “Lesson” in darkness. Does it involve both darkness for the world and light for the Jew as one idea or two separate ideas.

Class One Hundred and Seven.

Likutei Sichos vol. 03 page 864 ff (1). The last מכה is different than the others inasmuch that it goes beyond “educating” Egypt to killing Egyptians. The question became why are these more deserving than these? And no answer of logic exists; it is just because of a transcendent love.

Class One Hundred and Eight.

Likutei Sichos vol. 03 page 867-8 (2). The entire event is an expression of the unconditional love of Hashem to the Jewish People, but we must nevertheless prepare. The preparation for going out of Mitzrayim is Mila and Korban Pesach.

Class One Hundred and Nine.

Likutei Sichos vol. 03 page 868 ff (3). Stopping time vs. dividing time; the best of both and its spiritual implications.
