\u201cA gentile who observes Shabbat [Sabbath] must die.\u201d \u201cMake your Shabbat a weekday and do not be needy of people.\u201d \u201cWelcoming the Shabbat should be while it is still day.\u201d The curse of the serpent is that dust will be his food. \u201cA wise disciple is as the Shabbat.\u201d \u201cAn uneducated person has the fear of Shabbat over him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is \u201cweekday\u201d and there is \u201cShabbat.\u201d A weekday is the six workdays, which is the time of work, when we must sort and separate holy from worldly, meaning which is Kedusha<\/em> [holiness], and which is the opposite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During the acceptance of the burden of the kingdom of heaven permanently, when he should no longer think and contemplate, this is called \u201cwelcoming the Shabbat.\u201d The holy Shechina<\/em> [Divinity] is called Queen Shabbat, meaning that during the work, she is called \u201cShechina<\/em> in the dust,\u201d but after the scrutiny she is called \u201ca queen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the meaning of \u201cGo my beloved, toward the bride,\u201d which is the unification of the Creator with the Shechina<\/em>. But when she is in the dust, it is impossible to say, \u201cGo my beloved,\u201d for the person himself makes the separation, as he himself says that it is unbecoming of the Creator to unite with such work, whose entire foundation hangs on nothing, as in, \u201cShe has nothing of her own,\u201d but rather everything is above reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For this reason, when a person comes to welcome the Shabbat, it is certainly still a weekday for him. But after he welcomes the Shabbat, it is called \u201cShabbat.\u201d That is, now it is forbidden to make any scrutinies, which is the time of rest, for with respect to the sanctity of the day itself, it is forbidden to do any work of scrutinies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If, by chance, a person sees that he has no fear of heaven, and thinks that it is forbidden to make scrutinies on Shabbat, since it is forbidden to work on Shabbat, it was said about this, \u201cA gentile who observes Shabbat must die,\u201d meaning he puts himself to death by not engaging in the work of accepting the burden of the kingdom of heaven, since it is written that \u201che lives in them\u201d and not that he dies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That is, saving a life takes precedence over Shabbat. If a person sees that he has no fear, then he has no life, for only acceptance of the burden of the kingdom of heaven attaches him to the Life of Lives. Hence, if he feels that he is still a gentile and wants to rest, he must die.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although he has the option to accept faith from the environment, for he can say, \u201cI see that all the townspeople engage in Torah and Mitzvot<\/em> [commandments], so why should I engage in scrutinies?\u201d They said about this, \u201cMake your Shabbat a weekday and do not need people\u201d (Shabbat 118a). This means that it is forbidden to receive the foundation of faith from people, but he must rather sort out the foundation of faith so it comes only from the heaven, as in \u201cthat his nourishments will come by heaven.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then he is called \u201ca wise disciple.\u201d \u201cWise\u201d means the Creator, meaning he receives the construction from the Creator. He should not be a disciple of people, learning the \u201cone letter,\u201d called \u201cfaith,\u201d from people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the meaning of a wise disciple being Shabbat. One who is rewarded with permanent faith, rests from his work. At that time, the uneducated one, meaning his body, the fear of Shabbat is upon him. That is, \u201cAn evil angel will answer \u2018Amen\u2019 against his will.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n But as for the serpent, dust will be his food. Therefore, he always has nourishments and never needs the Creator, meaning with his work that is Lo<\/em> Lishma<\/em> [not for Her sake], when the whole foundation is built on people, which is dust from the earth. At that time, he only needs people, and this he can always receive and will always stay in the quality of \u201cstill.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n But if a person does not agree to remain in the state of a serpent, which is the will to receive, when he wants to engage in bestowal, then he needs the Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Conversely, the serpent, who was cursed that he would not need the Creator\u2019s help, will naturally always remain in his lowliness and the words, \u201cIf the Creator did not help him, he would not overcome it,\u201d will not come true in him, as in \u201cThe Lord will finish for me,\u201d will not come true in him. Rather, the whole world will provide for him and he will always be needy of people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But one who walks in the path of the Creator and not in the path of the world, is rewarded with being favored by the Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is specifically one who needs the help of the Creator, as it is written, \u201cHe who comes to purify is aided\u201d (Shabbat 104a). It was interpreted in The Zohar<\/em>, \u201cWith what? With a holy soul.\u201d The Creator gives him a soul of Kedusha<\/em>, and with this force he can purify himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the meaning of \u201cRewarded more? He is given Ruach<\/em>\u2026\u201d meaning that if he wants to be cleansed each time, meaning to be purer, and the assisting power of the soul is not enough for him for the purity that he thinks he needs before he received the soul of Kedusha<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But after he receives the soul of Kedusha<\/em>, he feels that there is more room to work on purity, and the assisting power he received is not enough to determine to the side of purity. Hence, he prays and asks once more for help from above. At that time, he must be given greater force than he was given before. Therefore, now he is given Ruach<\/em>, etc., until he is given all the NRNHY<\/em> in his soul.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u201cA gentile who observes Shabbat [Sabbath] must die.\u201d \u201cMake your Shabbat a weekday and do not be needy of people.\u201d […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":6246,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"topic":[26],"class_list":["post-11145","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-rabash"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
