The Mystical Letter Aleph - Part 2 - Rabbi Yaakov Marcus

What’s said in this shiur

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

we have a god-given language here where every letter is a philosophical meaning in the shape of the letter carries that meeting and of course the mathematical value of the GU mantra of the letter will will carry the meaning as well so we said olive is the first letter of the alphabet oneness always represents godliness and yet we said it can't be a godly shape that would be idolaters you can't represent God with shapes so there's some sort of message in the shape of the letter Aleph we're trying to figure out what sort of godly message comes with that letter we said olive is comes with that letter we said olive is spelled a llama Fay I left and I love itself as a verb means to educate right it's the root of the modern word upon so education is always taking something a low potential raising it to a higher level we said olive is the only silent letter because just like God doesn't give himself a physical expression out into the world so - he doesn't assign a physical sound to the letter that represents his oneness and then we looked at it on our chart about kosher
