0:00 The fifth cup corresponds to Eliyahu the Prophet, may he be remembered for good. Every place that has a lack always needed five. Right? So Sarah - Avraham and Sarah - do not have children. 'Avram does not beget, Avraham begets.' What does 'Avraham begets' mean? What did you add to him - a hey - and suddenly he begot? This hey is the 'here is seed for you' - the five gevuros. These five gevuros are sweetened in Binah; there all the judgments are sweetened at their root above.
0:28 The hey of 'here is seed for you' is the da'as. The five places of speech in the mouth, which are also the five tongues. Achah'a, Datlenat, Bumaf, Zasshratz, Gichak... all these five. When the Holy One, blessed be He, takes all kinds of things that are... that the Jewish people, in practice, tread underfoot, that the Jewish people are far from, the Holy One, blessed be He, takes these levels from them, gathers them and raises them to the tzaddik, and the tzaddik raises them to the root.
0:54 This is how the five gevuros are sweetened. That is why, when a person comes to the tzaddik and walks to the tzaddik, gives a pidyon, receives from his Torah, sees his face, takes shelter in his shade. Five things that do these actions... the gevuros are sweetened from upon them. That is why it is written: 'I will remember My covenant with Yaakov,' The vav - it is as if above the hey. This is above da'as; all the gevuros are sweetened above da'as.
1:21 Now Yaakov - He does not remember. And when the five gevuros will be sweetened, then 'I will remember My covenant with Yaakov.' The hey - the completion: 'here is seed for you,' then 'I will remember the covenant of Yaakov.'
