Likkutei Torah Behar #1: When Life Strips You From Facades, You Can Touch the Truth

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi YY Jacobson’s own words— taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

Okay, welcome everybody. Today's class is dedicated by the Menachem and Batya Abrams in honor of their beloved children. Mazal Yeshua No one is Mushi. Ayala Refael Tzemach and David Gavriel with bracha and hatslacha l'arichas shanim v'shanim tovos. Thank you very, very much. Okay, we're going to start a new maamar today from Likutei Torah from the Alter Rebbe, the Baal HaTanya. And this is a maamar that is connected both to the parshas of these weeks. Parshas Behar which we're going to read next week. The first maamar of Behar. It's also a preparation for Shavuos because the maamar is dedic- a big part of the maamar is dedicated to Torah and how to learn Torah, how to internalize Torah. It's the first maamar in Parshas Behar. Page 78. On top it says "Imrei Behar" or in the Hebrew it's lamed tes, column three. Daf lamed tes, column three. On top it has to say Behar because in Likutei Torah, every Chumash, the pages start again. You understand? So, you can get daf mem in each Chumash, so make sure on top it says "Imrei Behar" 78. Okay. First maamar in Behar. This maamar, this discourse the Alter Rebbe, the Baal HaTanya said Shabbos Parshas Behar B'chukosai tov kuf sameach. That's the year 1800, tov kuf sameach, on chof beis Iyar. In the month of Iyar, Shabbos Behar B'chukosai, and it begins with a passuk in the beginning of Behar. sisters in Eretz Yisrael and all of the soldiers and all of the hostages and all of the families of the wounded and the wounded themselves and all the families of the slain and especially this is a ma'amar that discusses Eretz Yisrael as well. This way and this way. Or the other way? If I have to move it the other way, huh? Okay.
