What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Mendel Kessin’s own words— taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
Tonight, uh, we're only a couple of days away from Pesak, as they say in English, Passover. So, obviously, it's very appropriate to talk about Pesak. But you what's interesting is that there are many different what's called angles of understanding Pesak. And I would like to talk about an angle of pesak which personally I've never heard spoken about it from that angle really by anybody you know yet this angle that I want to talk about is fundamental and it's essential in fact I believe in many ways it is the true understanding and meaning of what Pesak really is and why is it so important? That's a very important question and what we will see as an as a uh a sort of like an intro is that Pesak is a very unusual holiday and it celebrates or commemorates a very unusual time on the divine plan. And I I think in many ways most people don't realize the parallel that Pesak has to the redemption itself. And not only the redemption but the entire divine plan and and this is what I'd like to talk about the resemblance or the parallel of Pesak to the divine plan itself. Okay. And uh that becomes the major concept of pesak and not only that it becomes the major concept of the divine plan and it also will explain the meaning of the mitzvah. So let's begin to try to get a handle on pesak. Now we all know the story of Pesak. Obviously it takes uh a place in many different uh paras in the Torah and so on. You know we know
