LECH LECHA

Shalom Shalom. We commence this DEVAR TORAH by focusing upon the energy of this week’s PARASHAT (portion). The energy of the PARASHAT LECH LECHA is V’KOY ECHAD. The IVRI transliteration V’KOY ECHAD is translated into the phrase “and hope in ECHAD.” No doubt this is something to attain in a hopeless situation. 

We have entered into a season that the sages termed KAV HAMIDDAH. As noted in previous portions, KAV HAMIDDAH is descriptive of the DARKEST of DARKNESS, yea, it is a time in which CHAOS reigns. The reign of CHAOS is one in which the people mourn being filled with hopelessness. The LIGHT that once shined has been extinguished giving rise to the experience of groping in hopelessness with the expectation of tragedy. Hoping in ECHAD, Blessed be His Name, is positioning to see OHR HASSIDIM, that is, the Light of Kindness.

In the SIDRAH, we have a story revealing ECHAD’S reassurance to AVRAM (Abraham). The necessity of the reassurance from ECHAD was based upon a promise that He had made to AVRAM concerning his becoming a great nation. Years had passed since the promise had been made and AVRAM remained childless. It was a time of darkness, AVRAM and SARAI were growing older in age, and questioning began to arise as to how AVRAM’S seed would become a great nation when it was absent.

In response to the hopelessness, we find these words, “Suddenly, the word of HASHEM came to him, saying, That one will not inherit you (the Damascene Eliezer). Only he that shall come forth from within you shall inherit you… And he trusted in HASHEM, and he reckoned it to him as righteousness.” Genesis 15:4. To establish the words of reassurance, ECHAD cuts a BRIT (covenant) with AVRAM. The BRIT serves as a contract between the DEATHLESS ONE and AVRAM. This contract is guaranteed based upon the nature of the DEATHLESS ONE giving rise to It’s performance in generations to come and the resurrection of AVRAM into Life without END.

Likewise the children of AVRAM are affected by the BRIT. We are destined to ascend into the PROMISE LAND, ERETZ YISRAEL. These days of DARKNESS are to be responded to with V’KOY ECHAD based upon BRIT AVRAM. There is hope in the time of hopelessness that will give rise to ASCENSION out of DARKNESS into OHR HASSIDIM.

 

NOACH

Shalom Shalom. We commence this DEVAR TORAH by focusing our attention on the energy of the SIDRAH. The energy of the SIDDRAH is RANEE AKARAH. The IVRI (Hebrew) transliteration RANEE AKARAH means to sing out. RANEE AKARAH is indicative of the Spirit of ECHAD, Blessed Be His Name, which is war like in nature. This EMET (truth) can be seen in what is termed the HYMN of REDEMPTION found in the book of the NAVI Isaiah chapter 42:10-13. The 13th verse reads as follows, “HASHEM will go forth like a mighty warrior. He will arouse vengeance like a man of war; He will shout triumphantly even roar: He will overpower his enemies.” In this prophetic utterance, the nature, that is, the SPIRIT of ECHAD is disclosed, yea, IT is described as a warrior, that of a man of war. This is indicative of what will be experienced as one ASCENDS into the HIGHER LEVELS OF CORPORATE CONSCIOUSNESS. It is the nature of a warrior that is needful in the END OF DAYS, whereas DARKNESS and CHAOS has risen to the highest level termed KAV HAMIDDAH, yea, to transform the DARKEST OF DARKNESS requires that the OHR (Light) will manifest the SPIRIT OF A WARRIOR. The transformation occurs in warfare.

Timing is thought that travels in a recurring cycle termed MEHUGA. The PARASHAT NOACH is described as a time of great darkness. In order to save OLAM (the world) from destruction, NOACH has to establish the COMMANDS of ECHAD in MALCHUT, that is, the world. Establishing the COMMANDS of the COMMANDER in the land of the enemy is what a SOLDIER is to do. The negative forces that occupy the land must either be assimilated into the COMMANDS or warfare will occur to cause submission. Therefore NOACH must possess the Spirit of a Warrior to establish security in a world of DARKNESS. Since things happen MEHUGA, it requires that the HOST SOULS ascend into the Spirit of a Warrior to effect the transformation of darkness into Light.

Darkness is waging warfare against Light, yea, the time has come that we are to STRUCTURE for STRATEGY. Those who are faint hearted or fearful are not to ASSEMBLE. Concern for corporeal things can not be the focus of a WARRIOR. The WARRIOR must possess TENACITY to heed to the call. This will enable one to fall on the SWORD and not be wounded, yea, the maintenance of the RANKS must be observed. ECHAD will utter His voice triumphantly before His TZAVA (army) and establish His STANDARDS in MALCHUT. The blast of the TRUMPET is being SOUNDED to establish HAMACHSHAVAH ELYONAH bringing RESHUT HARABIM to the ground.

 

BEREISHIT

Shalom Shalom. This week commences a new yearly cycle for the year 5781. According to the Jewish Timeline, ADAM RISHON will undergo a 6000 year cycle to unfold HAMACHSHAVAH HAELYONAH, that is, the Supreme Thought at which end we shall manifest PHYSICAL IMMORTALITY.

The Supreme Thought is the only Thought of Creation. That Thought is that the INVISIBLE will become the VISIBLE. In regard to ADAM RISHON (the human conscious experience), the Thought of Creation is the visible manifestation of the invisible MIDDOT (qualities) of ECHAD in the BEGED (clothing) of the SOUL. This gives rise to the MERKAVOT (chariots) which clothed the SOUL, that is, the OLAMIM (worlds) BERIAH, YETZIRAH and ASIYAH, being transformed into the SHEKINAH, yea, the SOUL is destined to be clothed in OHR (Light). This is what is implied by PHYSICAL IMMORTALITY.

PRIOR TO the beginning, what occurs is what is termed HISTALSHELUT. The IVRI term HISTALSHELUT is descriptive of causal development. Causal development is indicative of the unfoldment of the CAUSE becoming the EFFECT. The portion begins with the revelation of the creation of the clothing of the SOUL of SOULS. The clothing of the SOULS of SOULS is what is termed ADAM KADMON which is the WHOLE OF Creation. Before the WHOLE of Creation, the cause through TSIM TSUM (constriction) became the world of NEKUDIM. The world of NEKUDIM is the hidden world destined to be clothed by the five MERKAVOT.

The force TZUR TAK is what caused TSIM TSUM to manifest the WORLD of NEKUDIM. This Infinite Force is like unto a blacksmith taking a piece of hot iron and striking it with a hammer on an anvil causing sparks to fly. The force TZUR TAK caused a CHALAL (hollow) to appear in the INFINITE FIELD of UNLIMITED POTENTIAL producing a line and residue. This line and residue comprise 288 sparks that are Supernal in nature. They are the pure essence of the CREATOR, ECHAD, Blessed Be His Name, containing information in the form of MIDDOT that will unfold the Supreme Thought.

The Creation of the Universe is the covering that is the shell of this hidden world, making It a SEED. This is what will become a visible manifestation of ECHAD, yea, the world of NEKUDIM that is hidden by the clothing termed Creation will unfold. Thus what ECHAD has decreed will come to manifestation, that is, the earth (WHOLE of Creation) will be filled with His Glory.

 

VEZOT HABERACHAH

Shalom Shalom. We commence this DEVAR TORAH by taking note that it is the final PARASHAT of the yearly cycle. The significance of it being the final portion of the TORAH discloses the nature thereof. MOSHE is a NAVI (prophet). The final utterances of a NAVI are weighty in that they are a disclosure of an EXPANDED CONSCIOUSNESS. Meditation upon such utterances serve as a gateway into MOCHIN D’GADLUT. Ascension into MOCHIN D’GADLUT is elevation into the ETERNAL PERSPECTIVE of the SUPERNAL giving rise to the revelation of the RAZ (secret) things of ECHAD, Blessed be His Name. This can be viewed as rising into the TRUTH of BEING, that is, the DEATHLESS ONE.

The unfoldment of this final utterance segue into the following revelation, it is written, “Indeed, You loved the tribes greatly, all the holy ones were in Your hands; for they planted themselves at Your feet, bearing (the yoke) of Your utterances.” Deuteronomy 33:3. From the ROOT LANGUAGE, the hands of ECHAD are descriptive of His Power. In other words, regardless of the appearance of the holy ones (HOST SOULS) to the five senses, they are visible manifestations of ECHAD’S ability to influence thought, opinion and behavior. It is further disclosed that from their predetermined position of being submissive to the NAVI, they are transformed into vessels that are filled with the SUPERNAL UTTERANCES that give rise to the manifestation of HAMACHSHAVAH HA ELYONAH, that is, the GOAL of CREATION, yea, just as CREATION was spoken into existence by SUPERNAL UTTERANCES, so is the manifestation of the GLORY THEREOF. The HOST SOULS have the predetermined purpose of effecting TIKKUN OLAM thru the power of SPEAKING. There is a SPIRITUAL PROTOCOL that is used to effect the PROPHETIC UTTERANCES. The protocol is submission to the NAVI predetermined by ECHAD to guard and speak that which flows from the CREATOR. Those that are chosen for this purpose are YISRAEL referred to as JESHURUN, yea, this is the nation that has received the RUACH that is upon the NAVI MOSHE. This is based upon two principles. The first being that the time comes in which MOSHE will be made a greater and mightier nation, READ NUMBERS 14:12. The second being that what ECHAD speaks will not return into HIM void but rather accomplished. READ ISAIAH 55:10-11.

 

SUKKOT 5781

Chag HaSukkot. We commence this DEVAR TORAH by focusing our attention upon the instructions given to the NAVI MOSHE concerning the unfoldment of SUKKOT. It is written, “But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you gather in the crop of the land, you shall celebrate HaShem’s festival for a seven-day period, the first day is a rest day and the eighth day is a rest day. You shall take for yourselves on the first day the fruit of a citron tree, the branches of date palms, twigs of a plaited tree, and brook willows, and you shall rejoice before HaShem your God, for a seven-day period. You shall celebrate it as a festival for HaShem a seven-day period in the year, an eternal decree for your generations in the seventh month shall you celebrate it. You shall dwell in booths for a seven-day period, every native in Israel shall dwell in booth. So that your generations will know that I caused the Children of Israel to dwell in booths when I took them from the land of Egypt; I am HaShem you God.” Leviticus 23:39-43. From these instructions given to the NAVI MOSHE, we are able to discern that the nature thereof is ETERNAL. Not only does this imply that the observance has no beginning or ending but in addition, it is one that is TRANSCENDENT. This EMET (truth) is demonstrated in the expansion thereof.

Concerning the expansion of this DECREE, the NAVI ZECHARIAH wrote, “It shall be that all who are left over from all the nations who had invaded Jerusalem will come up every year to worship the King HaShem, Master of Legions, and to celebrate the festival of Succot.” Zechariah 14:16. From this prophetic utterance, we are able to discern that the DECREE given to BENEI YISRAEL to observe SUKKOT is expanded to include the rest of the Sons of Adam at the fulfillment of the GOAL of CREATION. No doubt the expansion rests upon the foundation that YISRAEL (the Host Souls) have made manifest our Supernal Corporate Purpose. The Supernal Corporate Purpose is the PROMISE given to our ABBA (Father) AVRAHAM that “… all the families of the earth shall bless themselves by you.” Genesis 12:3. These blessings are effected through the EXILE experienced by the Jewish people in which we were made to dwell in temporary places.

Our dwelling in these temporary places gives rise to educating all nations with the revelation of TORAH. From this movement, we are empowered to both ingather the Jewish People who have been lost in identification as well as provide an integral education to the rest of the Sons of Adam. Effecting this Supernal Purpose is what gives rise to the Earth being filled with the knowledge of G-d and the birthing of a New Civilization.
