Isn't it true that the greatest JOY you experience doing a Mitzvah, from either the details of its LAW, or the KABBALAH associated with it - does not compare to the PHYSICAL & EMOTIONAL PLEASURE a man gets from being INTIMATE with a woman?

Can't G-D change your Destiny and/or your Fortune for whatever DIVINE Reason he chooses? Are you not supposed to believe in The Creator Himself - REGARDLESS of the human or anything else in the Universe he uses for that belief? If on the other hand, you use a particular human being for whatever reason, as the center point of your belief, are you not guilty in some way, of the worst form of IDOLATRY?

Is the performance of the NEGATIVE and POSITIVE Commandments in that order - meant to FIRST REMOVE any impediments to perfection, and then pursue those methods that actually create and and enhance your INTENDED DEVELOPMENT?

Maybe the combination, or infusion of the soul into the body, is meant to show you how to unite with G-D in the here and now - the Universe as we experience it!

I've mentioned this before, but, the combination of fire and water produces USEFUL STEAM! So likewise with the soul and body of a man - the combination producing a PRODUCTIVE BEING!

Can we say that OLAM HABA, the different kind of existence you are talking about, is physicality that we experience here but - WITHOUT the STENCH of waste or disease or accident or - DEATH! Isn't that UNIMAGINATIVELY DIFFERENT?

Isn't the ULTIMATE PLEASURE the perfected combination of a perfect body with the perfect soul, experiencing the rest of the Universe in all its Glory?

Maybe one way to look at the WORLD TO COME is by simply gazing up at the heavens on a clear night where all these and those Stars and Planets are visible. Obviously G-D created them for us to explore and inhabit! Nobody in the history of Man has ever laid eyes on what's - OUT THERE! And of course, we need a certain IMMORTAL BODY to accomplish this!

Maybe an insight into EXISTENCE is the following: if you say that either something is ON PAR WITH, or even came BEFORE The Almighty Himself, that would be patently absurd - since G -D is the ultimate being! But if you use the idea of an UNSEIZEABLE CONCEPT - that of the action or verb - to abstract - that always refers to a continuous change, where G-D is imagined at the impossible endpoint or origin of. This can be considered as a dimensionless point, and/or an UN- GRASPABLE CHANGE.

" ... join with G-D ..." In the spiritual realm? Don't we do that upon death? And He also has His MALACHIM. Why does he need you? Can we not say that The Creator made THIS WORLD so that you could join him, in the here and now, following the correct formula - The Ten Commandments!

Can't you say that the existence of G-D, the PERFECT BEING, means that He does not contain, or have, any IMPERFECTIONS - and we can certainly enumerate those?

Thanks for the Torah lecture. Baruch HaShem Tov ♥

If you want it easier to read, search for this timestamp 35:12 in the video of "Efraim Palvanov" on UA-cam with the videotitle "Secrets of the Ten Plagues & the Passover Seder".

Rabbi, I have a concept that will blow your mind. So Isau came out with Red hair, right? So in my opinion his descendants are the Irish. Who, or what other group of people have red hair, Rabbi? Have you ever seen an Arab with Red hair? Or the Africans, and Asians? What do you think Rabbi? Also keep up the good lectures.

Speaking of Tibet: before I became BA'AL TESHUVA , I had a subconscious desire to follow some form of spirituality and came across this book called " The Third Eye" by Tuesday Lobsang Rampa, who spent three days without food or water in front of a monastery with a tremendous desire to enter. His story fascinated me!

Maybe you could look at the YETZER TOV as follows: Consider a SEESAW with the EVIL INCLINATION clearly delineated at both ends: too right, too left, too high, too low, too in , too out ... etc IOW - extremes producing BAD RESULTS. Now the GOOD INCLINATION, is that UNDEFINED middle point of the FULCRUM. This represents the EXQUISITE BALANCE of GOODNESS! You achieve this by following the Divine Commandments!

The NATURAL LAW you are referring to that every man knows subconsciously, is described by Hillel's dictum -what you find hateful, refrain from doing to somebody else. IOW, man's primary interest is in preserving himself, his health, and avoiding harm and death.

FIRE and WATER can coexist - it's called STEAM!

I met you at the Armon hotel last week and, for me , it was like meeting a star, a real light! I hang on every word from you and Rabbi Mendel. Thanks so much. Every word is needed now, more than ever.

When Joseph revealed himself to his brothers didn't they: - first recognize his VOICE, - and then find it strange that an Egyptian leader should recognize and believe in - G-D?

Your painting a picture of a SCAPEGOAT. Typically, Jews have been used as such. Don't we consider that a form of - PREJUDICE? Isn't that OBVIOUSLY evil?

When it says that the elder shall SERVE the younger, shall we not take that to mean - the younger will SHOW the elder how to serve G-D in himself, so that he doesn't have to be a servant or a slave of anyone? After all, isn't that the true meaning of FREEDOM - everyone pines for?

Isn't a monarchy a form of DICTATORSHIP - benevolent or not? And absolute power corrupts - ABSOLUTELY?

A better description of Trump and his actions is POLITICALLY INCORRECT, which suggests connection with the truth - rather than DEFIANT, implying opposition to Emes.

It's one thing to do a mitzvah like honoring your parents with incorrect intention - but it is quite another to do it with a CONTRADICTORY, HYPOCRITICAL spirit, the way Esau apparently honored his father!

Doesn't it say that the house of Esau will be completely destroyed? So how can he have a Kappara?

It sounds a little silly to suggest that you, as a human being, should be G-D! That's a CONTRADICTION! Isn't it correct and better to say, that you should be LIKE the Creator, experiencing eternity through immortality, as a human being?!

Don't we say that G-D --> IS <-- identified WITH whatever He creates? So why can't you say that the Creator - IS - good?

Can't you perceive a SPIRITUAL ENTITY with your MIND (your feeling and understanding)?

PREFACE: Congratulations on having a COMMENT SECTION - where viewers can exercise their freedom to respond - or not! 😁

Isn't the GREATEST GOOD that G-D bestowed on man - the fact that He gives you TRUE FREE CHOICE to oppose Him, and that which is RIGHT and GOOD?

❤B'H

Are you saying that we need a certain sense of SHAME in order to attenuate our natural IMPUDENT ARROGANCE, assuming that we are - G-D?

Can we not say that THE WORLD TO COME is in a very real sense,expressed by the current Universe we perceive? In other words,we have existed until now on Earth. But there is a whole Infinity, stretching out for billions of light years, with multitudes of planets to explore and to profit from - in terms of just being good and fulfilling G-D's plan of pure pleasure forever; without any downsides! Each man having 310 worlds of his own! The cap it all off - living in a physical perfected immortal body, whose skin looks like the current nails we have!

Why does it seem that you are diminishing the child or childlike behavior, when the Cherubim are depicted as CHILDREN with wings pointing to the heavens? Doesn't that underscore the importance of what it means to be almost opposites: the greatest adult intellect, combined with simple, childlike emotions?

Didn't you mean the - NEOCORTEX, and not the CEREBELLUM? How could any Man believe that he is - G-D, when he suffers deterioration, accident, disease and death?

Rabbi Shimon: maybe you could explain the difference between perception of an OBJECT and your SELF-AWARENESS in the following manner The thing, a table or whatever, is IN YOU - that is in the MIND! But, your AWARENESS, CONSCIOUSNESS, is the constant ability to ABSTRACT from a present reality. G-D has an INFINITE ABILITY to do so; while you - are LIMITED.

Why can't a Gentile create OLAM HABA for one who observes the seven Noahide laws? After all, he also has a certain correct conception of G - D.

Wasn't unjustified hatred what caused the destruction of the second temple - and not what is keeping us in exile now?

How could anyone in his right mind, believe that a golden calf took them out of Egypt? That sounds IRRATIONAL! And Jews are not.

This rabbi speaks the truth of the Torah, hence by definition there is absolutely no connection to any non Jewish ideology. Anyone stating anything different here is merely trying to engage in misinformation.

Blessed Be The GREAT-NAME 🎉

Thank you Rabbi

R' Kessin thanks for this shiur in particular. HaShem Echad.

❤name of RABBI speaking now??

Did you know that GOD says in Exodus 3:14-15 that His Name is 'EHYEH' or 'I AM' in english? 'EHYEH, The God of our fathers - The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob'. This is how He commanded us to call Him forever, throughout our generations.

the term is "mutually inclusive" of the soul. re: timestamp1:22:51

i see your dimples... may the youth in you return!

Dear Rabbi followed you for years… I’m a christian who loves Jews, believes they are Gods chosen people… please know there are many Christian’s who love your teaching…. Thank you.
