What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Daniel Glatstein’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
Wednesday, Thursday. Wednesday, Thursday. Right? So, what month is coming up? Who knows? What month is coming up? Tammuz. Good, Ari Leib. Excellent. So, um So, I want to tell you a few things about Chodesh Tammuz. So, a few good things are that we know really, if you think about when the Torah was given, Torah was actually given in the month of Tammuz. How's that? Cuz Moshe Rabbeinu went up to Har Sinai what what month? Sivan. What day? The 6th of Sivan. Ari Leib, ever since you won the Chinese auction, you're even uh you know? On the 6th day of Sivan and Moshe Rabbeinu came down 40 days later. And what day did he come down? Shiva Asar BeTammuz. So, technically speaking, he's coming down with the Luchos on the 17th day of Tammuz. So, the 17th day of Tammuz was the day really that he brought the Torah down. So, therefore um Rebbe Nachman of Breslov says Tammuz stands for Zman Matan Torah Seinuh. Zman Matan Torah Seinuh. So, you'll ask what happened to the vav? So, Rebbe Nachman asked that. What happened to the vav? So, with the Luchos, the measurements of the Luchos were vav by vav, 6 by 6. But, they were broken. So, the the vav was taken out of Tammuz. That's what Rebbe Nachman says. Or uh Rebbe Nachman says like this. We know that uh Chazal tells us that when Moshe Rabbeinu broke the Luchos, then it brought shichcha to the world. It brought forgetfulness to the world. Which means there's a concept that had we accepted the Luchos Rishonus, you would have learned and you never would have forgotten anything. However, now
