Every Jew Is a Witness to All the Claims of Judaism

The Torah Is Here to Jog Your Unconscious Memory of the Infinity of Your Soul

1 שעה 33 דקות

סיכום השיעור:

This weekly women's class on Sefas Emes Parshas Yisro was presented on Tuesday, Parshas Yisro, 20 Shevat, 5781, February 2, 2021, live from Rabbi YY Jacobson's home in Monsey, NY.

Every Jew is a witness to all of Judaism’s claims. For its truths are imprinted in the core of every Jewish soul. The Torah is here to jog our unconscious memory, reminding us what we always knew about who we always are and who we will always—conduits for Divine infinity.

    Thank you for the wonderful, deep and insightful lecture on Parshat Yitro.  The reference to 600000 letters of the Torah / 600000 souls at the Mt. Sinai triggered my further research that brought me to the following discovery:
    There are "5,888 or 5,845 verses in the Torah."
    I'm quoting this website : 

    https://judaism.stackexchange.com/questions/44230/how-many-words-are-there-in-tanach

    So a couple of questions here:
    1. So how many verses are really there?  5888 or 5845?

    2. Why the discrepancy?

    3. Do you think that this number gives us a hint regarding Moshiah's arrival?
    Thank you once again for your continous flow of wisdom!

    If we are all witnesses

    which is what GD says, and Torah is the document we have to refer to , then we should all be able to serve as a witness, no?

    Someone commented

    They way we approach the position and task assigned to us can determine how we handle the engagement of activity and the result that will either produce hundred, sixty or thirtyfold.

    A witness may have his memory jogged by a document he wrote

    When Hashem testifies to us at Har Sinai as what He did 7 weeks earlier in Mitztrayim,  is He testifying as a witness relying on a document (the Torah)? 

    I suppose He qualifies as a Talmud Chocham for whom the rules about testifying are relaxed.

Dedicated by Nathaniel Yitzchak Grynpas, in loving memory of his wife, Talia bas Rachamim and Rivkah shlita, who passed away on 19 Shevat, 5778, at the age of 36. A pillar of wisdom, humility, faith, and kindness, Talia's dedication to her family and community in Sederot was awe-inspiring.  
And in the merit of her children, Hadassah Malka, Israel, and Meir Chayim.
