Souccot & Sim'hat Torah
Transcription
Kind: captions Language: en With God's help, we are on the eve of the Holy Holiday. Sukkot. Sukkot is a holiday with many lights, many mitzvot, the four species in the Sukkah, and so on. So first of all, first of all, as I said in today's halacha, I just want to say this in short, the matter of the condition, that is, since the entire Sukkah decoration becomes dedicated, so that's why you have to pay attention, you have to pay attention, make a condition before sunset, before you go to synagogue for the evening offering, make a condition that you can use because sometimes he puts a bottle of wine or a bottle of oil for the virtue of the light of the holiday, he puts real fruits. I'm talking about yes, he wants to use it. If he doesn't want to use it, I didn't say anything. I don't need anything. I don't need anything. So that's how he can, but if he makes a condition, he can use them during the holiday. If he doesn't need it, then he doesn't need it now. Tie the lulav today with the four kinds with the four mediums. Tie the lulav today on the eve of the holiday. It's very worthwhile to do it inside the Sukkah, and even better if you can do it in front of the children, the grandchildren, the children, like that. So they sang. So the holy books say that it brings fear of God, that lights up that a father comes like that, loves the mitzvot, ties them, and knows that this is it. This is loving a mitzvah. Loving a mitzvah. There is a Rabbi, Rabbi David Haran, peace be upon him, a great genius. He used to live. In the Sha'arim of a past generation, for example, on the first night of Sukkot, he would not sleep because of the excitement of fulfilling the mitzvah of the Lulav, because it is from the Torah, because of the excitement, he would wait until morning to fulfill the mitzvah. So also when you come to tie the knot and you show kindness, you show kindness in the mitzvah. That's why it's a big deal. It's a great thing for the children to see that their father likes the mitzvot. It doesn't need words, it's not words. Just seeing you is an image that is etched in their minds for the rest of their lives. All my life, it's an engraved image that my father loves the commandments. Look how he ties the lulav. Look at how delicately. Look at how eager I am. Look. thanks. He does it right . Very beautiful. This is a big, big, very big thing. Oh, and also a beautiful outfit. Because on a good day you need more comfortable clothes than on Shabbat. From Saturday. Just ask me, it says in the Shulchan Aruch that on a good day, you need more comfortable clothes than on Shabbat. Just ask me, someone bought a suit and said he wants to keep it for Simchat Torah. He cannot because it is not transgressing the commandments. What did you see? What did you see now that made you leave the suit for Simchat Torah and not wear it now? If he bought two suits then there's no problem. He will wear one on Sukkot, one on Simchat Torah. But telling him I'm leaving the suit for Simchat Torah is certainly not true. That's not true. What is wrong? This does not mean that the commandments are transgressed. Sure what? It is just important enough that in order to wear a syllogism that he wore the suit now and of course we have it so we also have it in kiddush we have it in kiddush that we have it to sit in the sukkah and before we have it to sit in the sukkah to pay attention to the sukkah Rabbi Ben Zion would say that as if he were saying to sit in the sukkah that he sat is not required because to sit is also standing that you stay in the same place it is called to linger to sit is also to linger so no but whoever wants can but certainly the neighbor comes later this is about the neighbor in kiddush also a haircut we said haircut that a person will not enter from a noble for the holiday and therefore enter enter the sages whoever enters from a noble for the holiday the penalty is that on all the festival he cannot get a haircut no there is really no extreme cases that a person was in the prison you want him to do he cannot get a haircut that is okay these are extreme cases that allowed him to get a haircut on all the festival but in a normal case he could get a haircut and did not get a haircut why because he relies on the day of the festival to get a haircut it is certainly forbidden there is no permission in this and also we said a very important thing that a person enters on the holiday to eat The meal is eaten with appetite, so already at the tenth inspiration he will refrain from eating. Today it leaves Jerusalem at 3:20 a.m. approximately, yes, on time, but every state, every city, checks the table in the tenth table so that it can eat the meal wisely, because it is a commandment from the Torah to make the kezayit in the meal, and we explained and explained that what, like the name, we said that the soul was born, the Holy One, blessed be He, gave birth to the soul in Nisan, the body in the teshush, the food of the soul, is a mitzvah. Therefore, we have the decree that is equivalent to Tutu Tu Nisan. We eat the matzah from the commandment of the Torah on the night of the Seder, and now the food of the body is Betu in forgetfulness, therefore it is possible, it can be done with bread, it can be done with bread, it is food of the body, therefore it is precisely the kezayit, the kezayit that can be eaten with bread, you don't need mitzvah because it is food of the body, this is on the night of Betu in Tishrei, because in Tishrei the body is born, but the soul is in Nisan . And now, in order for the body to connect with the soul, this is now the true connection with the soul, this is inside the sukkah. He entered with his whole body, his whole body inside the sukkah, which is the length of a mother, which is her understanding. So now there is a connection between the body and the soul when it is inside the sukkah. Therefore, it is a mitzvah that the entire body must be within the mitzvah. Within the commandment. And so it is for the same reason, for the same reason, pay attention, for the same reason that on the holiday of Sukkot, sleeping is more serious than eating. The Shulchan Aruch ruled, and so the halachah states, that eating ari is permitted outside the sukkah. But sleeping outside the sukkah is prohibited. Because sleep is, as we said, one of the 60 parts of the bed that the soul goes to, so how can the soul and the body connect when he goes to sleep if he is outside the sukkah? Therefore, when sleeping, even sleeping in the morning is forbidden outside the sukkah. This is the reason. This is the reason that sleeping in the morning is forbidden outside. Therefore, one should pay attention to whether a person is a little tired, even if he is not going to sleep, but he knows that because he is tired, he can take a nap because now that it is not time for him to go to the entity, but he can. If he knows that he is going to take a nap because he is a little tired, sitting in the sukkah, let him take a nap. There is no problem for him to take a nap because he is outside the sukkah. He is inside the sukkah. What is the problem? He can take a nap, but why? Because it is called sleeping in the morning? It is beautiful. This is about sleep. Now, the author of Tohumat Hashanah is one of the first. He says, " As one enters a festival, he is eager to eat the meal, to fulfill the mitzvah of Sadauritah." He also says, "It is advisable for him to have a desire to ask, as well, "He should not sleep, if he needs a little, but does not sleep properly on the eve of a holiday, so that he will have a desire to sleep." If he is tired of sleeping, then he will fulfill the mitzvah in a good way. He has the desire to sleep at night on the night of Sukkot, as we said, because it is a great thing, because it is very important, because it is very important for this matter of sleep, because it connects the body with the soul. Therefore, one should be inside the Sukkah, even if it is a sleepover. Now, of course, whoever can pray, the gate writes, the intentions are that the entire synagogue would do it inside the Sukkah. Whoever can pray inside the Sukkah, of course, at least says the rest of the intentions, at least that the lulav, that the lulav will be inside the Sukkah. Whoever prays in a synagogue, then at least that the lulav should go outside and do the blessing of the lulav in the Sukkah. If they can do all the Hallel, if the people who pray in the Sukkah are even better, even better, and the prayers, if they pray in a synagogue, it is okay, it is permissible. I am just saying according to the secret, according to the secret. So the Arizel, in this, his disciple, Rabbi Chaim Bidel, in the name of the Arizel, said that this is Knesset There is no sukkah There is no sukkah So of course he prevented the synagogue as it is written that he should shake his sukkah in his sukkah before he goes to synagogue This is an exceptional case because he is because he knows that he is going to a synagogue that does not have a sukkah So what should he do So at least he will earn the first shake He will do it in his sukkah before he goes to synagogue But if there is a sukkah in a synagogue He does not need After Shacharit He goes out and does the first shake with the blessing in the sukkah If the whole congregation comes to the sukkah and does Hillel Nah What is good if not After that he will see He will return to the synagogue and continue So this is what he will do Regarding the shaking It is very very important Now the sanctity The sanctity of the sukkah is It is the highest It is the highest Therefore Oh Therefore Therefore You should pay attention to putting There are no useless things Pay attention For example If you are not used to it on Shabbat and all A Who does not put for example a pot A pot is right Do not put a pot B On the table is right So if you put a pot for example that you are not used to putting on the table in the living room The sukka is invalid You should pay attention Yes If you put an animal inside the sukka The sukka Invalid. Why all this? What happened? If he puts a can into the sukkah, the sukkah is invalid at that moment. You have to take out the trash, take out the living room, take out the pot, etc., so that the sukkah becomes kosher again. If a Gentile enters a sukkah, the sukkah is invalid. Do you understand why all this is happening? Because its holiness is very great. More than holiness, more than holiness is high. So then things of disgrace can remove the holiness there is a teaching like a person for example like a person for example like a person for example is you know God forbid he speaks idle things and all he is in pride he is a person in pride he is in hypocrisy God forbid then the Shekhina flees the Shekhina flees from him right so the same thing here in the Sukkah because there are seven and a half so that's it so now what is the point of this holiness of the seven and a half so first of all it started with Aaron thanks to Aaron the priest who was a cloud of honor who loves peace and pursues peace he loves people and brings them to the Torah right this is Aaron beautiful so thanks to the ark we have clouds of honor so these clouds of honor yes we we do we make a memorial to the Sukkah seven days memorial to the clouds of honor beautiful now the seven come and a half that is Abraham Isaac Jacob Moses Aaron Joseph and David they come every day i.e. the first day who is Abraham that is why a person will stand at the door why because the Holy Zohar writes you need to invite when you do something you need to invite you need to invite them so first of all you stand there for the best uniqueness What is written in the siddurs is understood today, thank God, it is possible, Kosher Dari, every siddur, almost every siddur has it, you are for the sake of the uniqueness of the son of a living man that you stand at the door, so now all the time you say you don't have to stand at the door from the outside, no, I say from his mouth, and after that they told me that some great ones did it too, because it's a shame about this time. I studied outside all this time, so of course there is a name of uniqueness. I say everything inside is written at the door, but why outside? At the door, inside? How do you invite a guest? You don't go out? You open the door, you're inside, and you let him in like that? So at the door, yes, you will be at the door of the sukkah, but inside, because it's a shame about this time, why will you be outside like that? I did this for years, and even in the yeshiva they would tell me not at the door, it's outside, even my brother, my heart is pounding, no, it wasn't comfortable for me. I would only do it inside, at the entrance inside. And after that, some people who knew I was doing this came and started telling me, "Wow, this rabbi, this rabbi, this rabbi." They started telling me all kinds of names of world greats who also did the same thing from Zebra. Because it's a zebra. Zebra is correct. what? Zebra is correct. All this time you've been standing for uniqueness, why would you be outside? What happened? When you invite a guest, you are inside the house. So, it is certain that all the secrets are unique in the beginning . And he will also earn this time because you have no idea what another minute in the Sukkah is. You have no idea what another minute in the Sukkah is. What is there in it? Surely there is more light every moment. So like this. So first of all, we have the light of the virtue of Aaron, Aaron the Priest. Just by the way, this is the reason that there is a virtue, a huge virtue. Whoever makes a Sukkah as a halachah properly, has no quarrels in the house all year long. He has no one. They will not want to fight with you. They cannot. They will fall before they fight with you. They cannot. They cannot. They cannot. They cannot. They cannot. They cannot. They cannot. They cannot. Why? Because it is because of Aaron, who loves peace, pursues peace, loves people, and sacrifices them to the Torah. So you, you, have now been granted the privilege of maintaining the Sukkah, which is because of Aaron, who loves peace. So the virtue is to receive peace all year long. So here is a virtue. A ticket to receive peace all year long. How by building a Sukkah according to its rules, you make a Sukkah according to its rules. You receive peace all year long. Something amazing. Now after this, after this, the first day, for example, is a grace. So it is Avraham Avinu, our father, Avraham Avinu, because we have five graces that start from Yom Kippur to Sukkot. So the first day of After Kippur is Because it is a celebration of kindness, heroism, glory, and shouts. It goes from the bottom to the top. So the first day after Kippur it was Ehud, after that it was Netzah, yesterday it was Tiferet, today it is heroism. So tonight, tonight, which is the 15th of Tashchi, is the grace, the great grace, therefore it is Abraham our father. Now Abraham our father invites him, he does not come alone. He came with everyone. He came with everyone. The main thing is Abraham. So everyone congratulates you. everybody. You made a sukkah properly. You thought of the poor, you did everything that was necessary, they rejoice over you and in holiness, in purity they bless you. The second day is Isaac. Isaac came, he didn't come alone, if they were all the same. That way, every day is sacred to you. So you can't now have such holiness in the Sukkah that you invite them and they come and it's even more so if you now put Elijah's chair so that Elijah the prophet also joins them. All of this you need to pay attention to. You can't talk nonsense. It is impossible, God forbid, to be young. You need to notice that there is holiness here and you can't be proud and you don't need to talk about anger, God forbid. Anger, God forbid. It drives away the slaughter, as it is written in the Shulchan Aruch that whoever walks upright, pushing the feet of the Divine Presence, pushes the Shekhinah, as if he is driving it away. Therefore, this is the matter of this holiness. This holiness needs to be noticed. Therefore, there is no lack of evil inclination, there is no lack of it, especially between a man and his wife, even with the children. Even with the children, it's not like sometimes, sometimes, there is what you call it, not sometimes like that. He is a close person to himself, so he wants, he wants respect, he wants to be respected, right? I understand that. Why does he bother with the children all the time? Bringing them what doesn't do for them? Out of all the love, so he expects. That's the matter. Out of all the love, he loves the children. He invests in her, he brings her, he brings her home. He doesn't stop, as if God creates to give. So in these moments when he comes, you know, on Sukkot and that, then he expects, he has expectations, he has expectations. So that's why a person needs to pay attention, needs to pay attention to how much these expectations are worth. Because these expectations lead a person to, I know, anger, abandonment, disappointment. These are the expectations. These are the expectations. So please note, no expectations. No expectations. Those who want to live, as they say, in peace , in tranquility, with peace of mind, have no expectations. The only thing I have always brought against my master is that he is of the type of brakes. What God does is best. This is the best. Because it's a shame, a shame that a person would spoil the joy of the holiday, spoil the joy of the entire family. The head of the household, yes? The owner of the house who is angry all the time is yours. The whole atmosphere of the house, the whole atmosphere of the sukkah, especially now with all the hospitals, with Elijah the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and the Shekhinah flees. Well, what's left? And also, the atmosphere, may God bless him, is an ugly atmosphere, as if the atmosphere is full of fire. So everyone is getting up and leaving. It's not good. It's not good. It's not good. That's why I say the point. The point that a person needs to work on. And I tell you, it's worth it. It's worth it. It's worth it. Why what? Because whatever you get now, you will be happy. The moment you have no expectations and you receive, it's a huge joy. If you have expectations and you get them, then always, Why the forests? Because I expected more. You understood it like a person expecting high grades from his son, so he is disappointed. He didn't get the grades I wanted. So he is disappointed. All the disappointments and seemingly negative reactions are because of expectations, because of expectations, that's why on Sukkot you need to know one thing: there are no expectations, and that's why I say, in the divine help, I said this, that's why now there's no difference, who are millionaires, billionaires, I'm a billionaire, whatever you want, there's no difference, everyone, even someone who has a palace, leaves there, leaves there, where does he go? A sukkah is an Ari apartment. Thatched roofs, thatched roofs. A thatch that does not receive impurity, what is it? It's not even a tool, it's leaves, leaves, literally nothing, nothing, leaves, leaves, nothing, gold, no silver, nothing, leaves, like that, everyone is equal, everyone is equal, and therefore, and therefore, this work, this work of Sukkot, of Sukkot, this is a work of idleness, which I understood, I understood that with the Holy One, blessed be He, it's all, how is it written, everyone is loved, everyone is clarification, everyone is righteous, as if with the Holy One, it's clear, everyone is his children. Oh, not because I brought you a little more money than the other one, turn your nose up at me now. What happened? What happened? And everyone is equal, everyone is equal, and then if it is like this, if it is like this, then a person is a person, if he is a person, then he feels like this, it is true that he surrenders to the Holy One, blessed be He, so he has no expectations and everything that comes is welcome. You said, I think this is a huge foundation. This is a huge element that you can learn from this comparison that supposedly everyone now has a city apartment but he wants to be in his palace what do you know how much he spent on the living room he did renovations now a million shekels is there like someone he did renovations in the kitchen a million shekels leaves the kitchen doesn't look at the kitchen now go to the boards go to the boards go to the leaves nothing nothing you understand this I say this thing this thing so that a person so that a person feels that he feels that a person that he is worth is worth the intention not not to turn up your nose not now because the Holy One blessed be He gave you more than the other even if it is in wisdom if it is in power if it is in wealth what He gave to one more if it is in children that one will be praised there many children one less one more you understand it doesn't matter doesn't matter therefore therefore this it gets the person used to it it gets the person used to being happy this is the joy the moment you have expectations you and the joy are far apart I tell you this check check check I am as if I am looking at it looking at it how a person how a person how the Torah can say come on flip the switch now the switch you were In a normal situation now and you were happy on your holiday and you were a happy brother, how do you do it because you have no expectations, you have no expectations from anyone, you just want to cling to the Holy One, blessed be He, and do His commandments. Therefore, you have no problem being a vessel. Now you are a vessel to receive. A person who has no expectations is a tool for receiving. And so, therefore, he can be happy. And another very, very important point, and I think we need to pay attention to it. what? That this light of the holiday is drawn to him all year long. And why? And why? Because it is known that at the creation of the world, at the creation of the world, in Noah, peace be upon him, Rabbi Chaim Pinzo, thus he brings it, in his name, in Noah's name, peace be upon him, brings Rabbi Ado Chaim Pinzo, there he brings it, in the creation of the world, how was there a week before the Pentateuch, which supposedly builds worlds and destroys them? What is written in the Midrash is called Seven Kings, beautiful. The Pentateuch begins with the day, and evening and morning, one day. This is so throughout Elul, strong and blessed. Now he says, he says it this way, as soon as coffee starts in Elul, it's the correction, it's the creation of the world. Says, when are there two systems in the creation of the world? There are what are called days and there are what are called times. Because his name is from time immemorial. So why did we celebrate Passover so long ago? Sukkot, from time to time, Hanukkah, Purim, Tu B'Shvat, all these things are from time to time. So but the days are all the time days a week after that a month after that a year should be nice but here here because these are times you come now on Teshvi right that as we said it is the creation of the bodies that man was created man was created because so so this is the first day he is called he was created on the first of Teshvi that it was a Friday in the creation of the world on the first of Teshvi he was born and then we have 21 days of work 21 days of work that has the uniqueness the final pairing it is at the end of the 21st it is on Simchat Torah on Simchat Torah so 21 days starting on the first of Teshvi it is Rosh Hashanah after that the ten days of repentance until Yom Kippur after that the days we said are the graces between Yom Kippur and Sukkot after that you have the seven days of Sukkot here 20 days another day it is Simchat Torah. This is Simchat Torah. So I mean, these lights are a year-round building. That's why you have time. This is it, it won't happen again. It's not coming back. A year doesn't come back until next year. But it's like you're building a new home from the Rosh Hashanah you made in your new home. The entire Teshuvah was built during the ten days of repentance of Teshuvah. And the same thing about Yom Kippur. Now the whole thing about the joy of the whole year with the blessings of the seven days, with the peace, with Aaron the priest, with the Shekhinah, with the blessings, with everything you produce, with all this thing about the lulav, which drives away the pests, and so on, with the shaking, and all these things, you actually have to pull them all year long because it's not days, it's times. What does times mean? That it will only return next year. Next year. Every year you build this thing, these lights for the whole year. So you see how important it is. How important is idleness? And why? Because the Holy Zohar says that emptiness makes it a tool. tool. How do you get the hand you are eliminated from? And why? And why? Because supposedly yes supposedly the holiness the holiness does not enter where you have a boundary there is a blockage now what will you get rid of in the cedar now there is a blockage if you pass you will not pass says the holiness wants to shake the head the holiness wants to shake the person but pride and expectations it creates a blockage it is a blockage it is blocked it is the blockage it is the blockage it is the blockage what do you expect from the Lord? What do I owe you? Do I owe you anything? I didn't understand. As if a person thinks that he is owed something. The whole world owes him. Do you understand? not. Because a soul that has labored is not labored. You're doing it for yourself. You are doing this for yourself, what you have brought up children for is good and beautiful. They owe you a good read. yes. We must respect you. yes. But you're wrong to expect that. why? Because they vindicated you. Because you have fulfilled the first commandment of the Torah. Freya and Rabia. I say example by example. The same thing about Shabbat is true. This is what a person respects Shabbat, so he brings the source of the blessing. Shabbat, don't worry about it. It will bless you from here until the new year. Of course, that's not the main reason. You don't do it to receive. You don't do it. So it just says, this is a result. This is a verb. This is a verb. Therefore, I say the same thing here. The verb. That you are now striving in these days. The verb. That is for the whole year. Just like that. Because this is it. Until next year. Until next year. You understand. Therefore, what you are now going to live in this whole matter of the E of the A of the year. You will pour out. Everything is built from the darkness. From the 21st day. Everything is built from the 21st day. That's how it was established in the creation of the world. Well, it has to do with the sin of Adam the first and all. I won't go into all the details. Details that are written in the Zohar and Bar-e-Zel and Barmak. What he brings there. And all that. It doesn't. I'm just saying in general. In general, the whole year is supposedly disabled. You write it. You write it. When I say that you write. You write it. You write the year. You will pour out by your behavior. Rosh Hashana. The Ten Days of Repentance. Kippur. The days between Kippur and Sukkot. Sukkot. All. The seven days of Simchat Torah, Isrohag, may His name be praised. You have now written everything. You have finished everything. Oh, you have finished everything now. Let's begin. And so you see exactly what the Sages determined that when would the chapter of Genesis be? After you have determined for yourself the whole year. You have determined that it is finished. It is permanent. Okay, then the Baal Shem Tov comes and says, "It will still last until Hanukkah, certainly all year long, because there is no luck for Israel. But it is not. It is not easily. It is not as easily as you could do easily. Now you understand. I mean, what you do easily today, tomorrow, as if it were the whole holiday. It is much harder. Much harder. Therefore, there is ease here. There is complexity in doing it. Just as the Harash said about the shofar, what a person can do in one moment during the shofar cannot do in a great Torah throughout the year. You need a great Torah throughout the year. To succeed in doing what you can do, as they say in one moment, in one moment during the abundant time, I say the same thing here. The same thing here in one moment, you can do what you cannot do all year long with labor. It takes a lot of effort, so that's why I say, so that's why the Zohar comes and says that as much as you can, as much as you can, take advantage of every moment, a mask, don't start taking trips now, no trips, no blackouts, bring Tamas, sure, why, because you're pulling this with you for the whole year, for the whole year, miracles, miracles, miracles, I just said by the way, hint, hint, so that's why the lulav says, the lulav is a segulah after aha, yes after aha, it's a segulah as if for someone who's in pain, by the way, why, because by the way, it's a maara on a straight line, you understand, so the lulav, that supposedly he took out for you all the harmful and all the bad halals, and he took all of that out now on the lulav with the naanov, right, so he gives you a straight line for the whole year, because it's the spine, the spine, this is the, and therefore the whole prayer, the hint, the 18th and 19th links, because there's another small one, so 19 blessings, 19 links, so this is this matter of the, so man, and you fulfill what you fulfill in that, that the Holy One, blessed be He, says, I created man upright, and they asked for many accounts, a man who has expectations, a man who has pride, the This is then many accounts, it is called many accounts. But an honest person, what expectations will you say thank you very much? I once told someone we will stand for thousands of years, we will stand for thousands of years, we will say thank you very much, we will not be enough, we will not be enough to say thank you very much to the Holy One, blessed be He, for all the favors we will not be enough. So then you understand until a person has expectations to thank the Holy One, blessed be He. You understood this is many accounts. This is many accounts. So what is an honest person? An honest person who grasps the Torah and the mitzvot, puts it into his life within his veins and lives it completely. The meaning is with total submission. In order to cling to him, God bless him. Exactly exactly. Then with the help of God the Holy One, blessed be He, affects the person all the blessings and all the literal all the salvations, all the blessings written in the Torah . So with the help of God you will merit with the help of God we will merit together all the blessings written in the Torah in peace, Som, make blessings and a happy holiday, a happy holiday. Ja.
