Classes

Class Five.

Miracles beyond nature (1). Class five shifts the focus to another building block in the discussion of healing -miracles. What is common among the miracles in the Torah? The Rambam’s view is discussed.

Class Six.

Miracles beyond nature (2). Part two of the discussion of miracles.

Class Seven.

Nissan gives strength to Iyar. Iyar follows Nissan which is a month of miracles. The importance of the discussion of continuity now becomes clear. The miraculous nature of Nissan pours over into Iyar and results in a month of miraculous healing that is beyond nature.

Class eight.

What is the Difference Between our Avoda in Nissan and Iyar? The class begins with the question of what comes first: the spiritual level of healing or the physical level of healing? this installment contains an interesting discussion of the unbreakable connection between a jew and his/her Jewishness. Note: The Rema MiPanu referred to in…

Class Nine.

Look Up for health. In Nissan we come out of the narrowness of Mitzrayim and all of our limitation. The next and final class explains how this character of Nissan affects the healing that takes place in Iyar.

Class ten.

When the Sun Comes Out in Iyar. Summary and conclusion. If you only have time for one or two classes you can listen to the first one in the series and this one- the conclusion.

Class One.

The Yidden (of Shushan) deserved to die simply for enjoying Achashvairosh’s feast [that may actually have been Kosher]. How can this be justified? 1) Eating Not Kosher? 2) Celebrating the death of the rebuilding dream as 70 years had passed? Page 170-1.

Class Two.

The question isn’t why we deserved to die, the question is how did we survive. The answer is Of course a divine miracle, which we can throw off if we choose to. This is what happened then in Shushan, they went to and enjoyed the feast of Achashvairosh. Page 171.

Class Three.

The Yidden threw off the divine protection, by insisting that they could achieve protection through natural means, by being endeared to the non-Jews at that time. And thus they opened themselves up to accidents and Tzuros. Page 171-2.
