What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Yitzchak Botton’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

we're going to look at today at apostol from tehillim we're going to see an unbelievable connection with this verse to the holiday of shavuot the giving of the torah so the verse begins like this means you send it upon high that talk about moshe abenu who went on har sina that's a little maroon the continuation of the verse is shavita means you've captured what was captive that's part two part three of the verse is you have taken gifts for mankind this is all again speaking in relation to moshe rabbanu's ascent on har sinai he captured what was captive and now we're saying at the same time there's also an aspect of he took gifts for mankind in this in this on this special day and the last part of the verse is that even rebels will dwell with hashem that means that god will even reside among among rebellious rebel-type people these are the four parts of the verse and these all these four parts of the verse connect with the special day of matantora ashi says that alita lamarom is considered as if moshe went up to heaven because really the harsina at that special day wasn't just a regular mountain if you look at the verses in the sukim it says that there was lightning and thunder and a cloud and the divine presence the divine presence hashem himself came down on some level on this mountain and also all of the heavenly hosts were were there so really baby literally would say heaven came
