  לכבוד הרב יעקובזון שליט"א

  אינני דוברת אנגלית אבל לאחר שנחשפתי לשיעורים שלך אני לא מפסיקה לשמוע אותם.

  גם בהבנתי החלקית אני נדהמת מעומק הרעיונות ומהמסרים החשובים שבכל שיעור.

  בפרט עכשיו בזמן הקורונה קבלתי הרבה מאוד חיזוק מדבריכם.

  תזכו להגדיל תורה ולהאדירה מתוך בריאות ואריכות ימים.

  יישר כח

  BH!! Welcome back! What a zechus to have our shiur again! Thank you for a most original and beautiful shiur. The part about picking up on other energies around us was absolutely fascinating.  What an insight and eye-opener in life!
  
  Regarding the beautiful idea about the pottery, I’d like to share a story I heard from a mother of a child struggling with Yiddishkeit.  She said she fried a large batch of shnitzel, and her son came into the kitchen, touched every single piece, and then decided which piece he’d like. She cringed because she’s very makpid on not touching food without negel vasser and although she said nothing, she didn’t know if her family could now eat the food. She called her Rav who said that really it’s a problem! His hands are “tamei”!  But he added, that practically speaking, they can eat it since her son always showers, she can rely on that, that his hands were “washed”.  She said this message, that his hands are tamei, was actually a huge chizuk. Because her cleaning lady’s hands were not tamei. But her son, although he doesn’t act like a yid at all, his status of a Yid who “needs” negel vasser, remains intact!!
  
  Thank you for “coming back” and a special thank you for the different options of the shiur on the phone, as well as online, and zoom too, when I’ll get there....
  
  With so much gratitude,

    Thank you so much for sharing! that is a very deep story! Beautiful.

    there is a Midrash on Eicha, "Jerusalem sinned," chate chatah yerushalayim.

    That only Jerusalem can really "sin." Because there is such a deep relationship.

    when you have a few min, watch this video, about miriam bas bilgah -- same message.

  Various and sundry

  I think it was said that Yehoshua's spies set out in  1276 of our years. That cannot be, Avraham Avinu was 1948.

  It was said that the first set of 12 spies said that there was no natural way to conquer the  land and therefore despondency set in,  etc. But,  if that's what was said,  they right, there was  no NATURAL  way to conquer, it had to be supernatural.

  There's an english expression: "to turn a deaf ear".

  The danger was that the 2 spies would pick up on the negativity from 39 years earlier. Why wouldn't they have picked up  on the positive energy of the 2, and not the negative of the 10? 

  Similarly,  If  Osweitzen  was a bastion of hachossas orchim before becoming a place of horror, why didn't Reb Elimelech  pick up on that positive energy from the future and not just the negative? 

  An earthenware vessel has no intrinsic value per se, but is only useful for its function, i.e. to contain something and therefore tumah attaches only when a tumah item suspended in.the airspace of the cavity and not merely by touching it. And more valuable material like silver does have great intrinsic value do the tumah transfers by touching the outside.  But what if the tumah item is suspended in the airspace of  the silver vessel? The silver vessel ALSO has value for bits functionality to hold items.

  I have read many wonderful ways of applying this parsha to avoda that show great symbolism. What about the issue of being actually confident in our own land of Eretz Yisrael in the face of the goyim around us there and in the world?

  Hi Rabbi ! I have learned tremendously from your shiurim. How could I help myself with the feeling of loneliness, as I try so hard to stay connected to people like you teach, but sometimes people are too busy to either answer my regards back
