-ועבדי דוד ה’תשמ”ב -א

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…

-ועבדי דוד ה’תשמ”ב -ב

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…

וידבר אלוקים ה’תשמ”ב.

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…

A Parshas Nasso Ma’amar ה’תשמ”ג (?)

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…

Vichol HaAm Roim 5744 (a יתרו Ma’amar)

(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…

Karov Hashem 5744.

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….

B’Shaa Shehikdimu 5745.

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)…

Us’Fartem 5745 (Erev Shavuos)

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’…

Tzena UrEna 5745.

Another Shavuos Ma’amar. The Crowns: were there one, two, or three of them? Did they come from the Malachim to us or from us to Hashem? The answer: the source of all the Crowns are the Yidden, and they gave them to Hashem, but we need the help of the Malachim and therefore it is…

Ko Sivurchu 5745.

Class One. Another Ma’amar that is (in part) a Mattan Torah Ma’amar. Why is Hashem introducing Himself as the Redeemer and not as the Creator, considering that Creation is Yesh MeAyin and a far greater miracle? The Rebbe explains because we look at things when they are actual (revealed) and not potential (hidden). Though from…
