Good morning, everybody. Welcome to Basi Legani 2016 number nine. And with God's grace, I don't want to know if I don't know if we could say the grand finale. That's something you could finish as a But on some level, the grand finale. So, we are up to the last perek of the ma'amar, perek ches, chapter eight, which is in the kuntres page chof vov. Chof vov, oh, very nice. Chof vov 2016, chof vov, yeah. And the the series and this class is dedicated leilus nishmas Harav Hagaon Rav Avraham Chaim ben Hagaon Rav Mordechai Ze'ev HaCohen ben Hagaon Rav Avraham Chaim HaCohen ben Hagaon Rav Mordechai Ze'ev HaCohen. And by Reb Ezra Dovid Philip in honor of the Rebbe's shluchim the world over. For bracha v'hatzlacha ad bli dai. And thank you very, very much. So, actually, this chapter summarizes the ma'amar and brings it back all the way to the beginning of what it started. The whole idea of the ma'amar was Basi Legani Achosi Kallah. That iker shchinah betachtonim hayah, the shchinah's primary residence was in the lowest world. And then there was the expulsion of the shchinah through the seven sins. That's what it says in Medrash Rabbah on the possuk Basi Legani. And then came seven tzaddikim and began to heal the fragment fragmented world. Moshe, Avraham, Yitzchak, Yaakov, and then you have Yaakov's son is Levi, Kehos, Amram, and then Moshe is the seventh. And Moshe is the one who brings the shchinah all the way back to the earth where originally it was, especially through the Mishkan, building the Mishkan. When says on that day, Basi Legani Achosi Kallah, I came to my garden to my wedding canopy, wedding pavilion is Gani Gnuni.
