The Mind Once Enlightened Cannot Become Dark

Why the Restlessness? Why the Brokenness? Once I See Truth, There Is No Going Back

1 hr 29 min

Class Summary:

This class was presented on Tuesday, Parshas Eikev, 19 Av, 5782, August 16, 2022, at 18 Forshay, Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY.

Why do the Broken Tablets remain such a great source of inspiration to the point that we took them to war? Why did Moshe feel the need to break the tablets? Why do we compare the death of the Tzaddik to the breaking of the tablets? Why the restlessness so many of us possess?

Come on a journey into the types of relationships that redefine you at your core, because they are engraved in your soul. Once I taste infinity, once I see truth, there is no going back.

This class is based on an address presented by the Lubavitcher Rebbe on 20 Av, 5732, July 31, 1972.

    Moshe smashed the tablets

    Hashem gave Moshe the tablets to give to the yidden. 

    So, Moshe was a messenger, a shaliach. A shomer chinam.  A shomer chinam is responsible for damages he himself caused to the guarded item. So Moshe was liable for the damage.

    Perhaps, this too, was the reason he was eventually disallowed to enter EY?

      There's a fascinating discussion on this in Parshas Ekev. Basically the Luchos were Mose personal property ( a gift from Hashem )

    Second replacements missing from the first

    The second luchos inferior to the first.

    The second Bais Hamigdash inferior to the first.

    Second marriages also inferior to the first?

    If you give up what you have from Gd, you will be like them -- barren!  Barrenness loves company!
