Monday 24 Adar I 5703 Torah Lessons
(5703)Chumash: Vayakheil, Sheini with Rashi.
Tehillim: 113-118.
Tanya: For whereas (p. 145)...on a (transitory) thing. (p. 145).To R. Hillel Paritcher's question whether to review Chassidus even in towns where the people have no conception of Chassidus, the Mitteler Rebbe responded: "The soul hears words of Chassidus."
It is written, "Flowing from Lebanon." [1]
Lebanon is spelled (in Hebrew) Lamed Bet and two Nun's.
[2] "Lebanon" thus represents Chochma and Bina of the soul.
When the soul [3] hears, from there [4] issues a "flow", a "stream of droplets" into that "radiance" or Ha'ara of the soul which vitalizes the body; [5] this results in a strengthening of "do good" expressed in the 248 positive mitzvot, and of "turn from evil" expressed in the 365 prohibitions.
Notes:
- (Back to text) Shir HaShirim 4:15.
- (Back to text) Lamed Beit numerically equals 32, representing the "32 paths of Chochma," wisdom; Nu'n equals 50, the "fifty portals of bina," understanding.
- (Back to text) At its source-level of Chochma and Bina.
- (Back to text) I.e. from that Chochma/Bina source-level, the "Lebanon" of the soul.
- (Back to text) It is explained that only part of the soul invests itself in the body to give it life; this is called the "radiance" or reflection (Ha'ara) of the soul, in contrast to the essence (Lebanon), which remains "above." While the simple person hearing Chassidus does not comprehend in the least, his soul does possess the qualities of intellect, Chochma and Bina, that do comprehend, though he is not conscious of this. However there is an effect on him, the "flow" from Lebanon, intellect.
