What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi YY Jacobson’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
the says this is a verse in Psalms chapter 37 says literally it means trust God and do good then you'll dwell on the earth you'll will dwell in the land. Erit is the land. Is a very interesting term. What does that mean? So Rashi says on means you'll shepherd is from the word raya like aa is a shepherd or you will get nurture you will shepherd yourself through your faith. In other words your amuna your faith will shepherd you will sustain you will a shepherd sustains the flock. A shepherd protects the flock. You'll be nurtured. You'll receive reward. You'll be shepherded. You'll you'll be protected from your am from your faith. That's literally what it means. Tit a deep the deeper meaning of he says the t of a shepherd is someone who takes carefus like from the word sustains nurtures protects. So needs to be shepherded that the amuna will shepherd you meaning and it actually says your amuna will bring you reward but it's not literally means shepherd the amuna not you'll be shepherded from She says the muna needs to be shepherded because we spoke before that there's two experiences. There's das and there's amuna. Das represents the the first section of the m the first two chapters. Das represents something that is visceral knowledge. It's intimate knowledge. It's awareness that is real. You can have which is abstract could be abstract and das is really it's application. It's applied to you. says Adam knew and she motherthered her children cen and he so what doesn't mean Adam is abstractly he knew her he knew about her intellectually yada is an expression of connection of intimacy of oneness so when you speak about
