What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Shais Taub’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
we're learning the MIM let just review what are the MIM what is it literally mean May Robin stress we literally translate it first heavy wat yeah lots of waters okay and then symbolically what are they representing TI tiosa very good that's the technical Hebrew term for it and say it in plain English stress Financial Financial stress okay fine so the novel point that emerges so far in this m is that although we might think that these types of stresses distract us from our spirituality and therefore we would be better off if we didn't have them we are informed of this novel point that actually they evoke or elicit an even greater love of Hashem and so in a certain way they um they have their function they have their advantage and in fact we came down to this world from our lofty Source in the spiritual Realms in order to have this experience and that the net gain in Greater Love of Hashem that the soul is able to pick up from going through these challenges is really actually the whole purpose for which the soul came down to this world in other words up in heaven of course the soul loves Hashem but down here it ends up loving Hashem even more after going through the the challenges now we explained a little bit the cabalistic mechanics of that um and that's going to be important as we set up what we're about to study today in you know what chapter of the mimer we're on five five okay and how many chapters total in the mimer six okay so we're almost done but today is a heavy chapter it's not that long
