What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Sicha Women Shiur - Project Likkutei Sichos’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

here's an intriguing and surprising question we all know of course that avraham avenue yakov our forefathers were incredible human beings who had tremendous dedication to god so it makes sense of course that we would read their stories but the torah is a book of instructions and the fact is that we do mitzvahs today not because of avraham yakov but because of the revelation at sinai and the instruction about moisha abanos he has the question what are we meant to learn from their conduct which was vastly different to our experience of teremitz was today and why in fact did the unfolding of the jewish experience happen first with a pre-matantora experience and only afterwards with the torah experience great lesson for us in terms of our own spiritual development himself and many places in hasidis describe the big difference the distinction between the way in which avraham avenue kept mitzvos and learned torah and he did learn torah how do we know that us was an elderly or wise man sitting and learning in torah and as we know very well as us we know that avraham fulfilled the entirety even rabbinic laws before the torah was given and likewise so we look at the distinction between the mitres as performed by our obvious and as the shvatim and by the shvatim compared to lucky materials how we fulfill terror mitzvos today post matantoya how does hasidis learning of our forefathers was prior to the revelation at sinai leaf before there was an instruction that you are required to learn to undo mitzvos and prior to the concept of hashem descending on to sinai to present us with the torah which means hainu lima
