Promptly, \u201cAnd [the Lord] called unto Moses, and spoke unto him out of the tent of meeting.\u201d \u201cAnd spoke unto him\u201d means He alerted him that Israel would sin before Him and that this tent of meeting would be mortgaged for their sins and will not persist in their hands, as it is written, \u201cAnd [the Lord] spoke unto him out of the tent of meeting.\u201d He told him that it was destined to be mortgaged for the sins of Israel and will not persist. But the cure for it is, \u201cWhen any man of you brings an offering unto the Lord.\u201d Thus, offerings protect everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>51) The&nbsp;<em>Korban<\/em>&nbsp;[offering] should have been called&nbsp;<em>Kiruv<\/em>&nbsp;[bringing closer]. Why is it called&nbsp;<em>Korban<\/em>?&nbsp;<em>Korban<\/em>&nbsp;means drawing closer of the holy&nbsp;<em>Ketarim<\/em>&nbsp;[plural of&nbsp;<em>Keter<\/em>], the&nbsp;<em>Sefirot<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;<em>NHYM<\/em>, which come close together and connect to one another until they all become one, in complete unification, when the Holy Name is properly corrected. When it writes, \u201cAn offering unto the Lord,\u201d it means&nbsp;<em>Korban<\/em>, the drawing closer of those holy&nbsp;<em>Ketarim<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;<em>NHYM<\/em>, to&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>, which is&nbsp;<em>Rachamim<\/em>, middle line, so the Holy Name is corrected, and to unite it properly, so as to find&nbsp;<em>Rachamim<\/em>&nbsp;in all the worlds. Then the Holy Name will be crowned in His crowns, meaning that everything will be perfumed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>52) All this is so that the&nbsp;<em>Rachamim<\/em>&nbsp;will awaken, rather than the&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>. This is the reason why He is for&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>&nbsp;and not for&nbsp;<em>Elokim<\/em>&nbsp;[God], since&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>&nbsp;indicates&nbsp;<em>Rachamim<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Elokim<\/em>&nbsp;indicates&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>, as&nbsp;<em>Rachamim<\/em>&nbsp;are what is needed rather than the&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>. However, it is written, \u201cThe sacrifices of God are a broken spirit.\u201d It writes, \u201cThe sacrifices of God,\u201d and not \u201cThe sacrifices of&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>53) Also, it does not write, \u201cThe offering of God,\u201d but \u201cThe sacrifices of God.\u201d Only the slaughtering is named after&nbsp;<em>Elokim<\/em>. This is why their slaughtering is in the north, since the north indicates the name&nbsp;<em>Elokim<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>, since offering is to that name,&nbsp;<em>Elokim<\/em>, which is the side of&nbsp;<em>Gevura<\/em>, so it would be perfumed and the spirit of&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>&nbsp;would be broken, the&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>&nbsp;would be weakened, and the&nbsp;<em>Rachamim<\/em>&nbsp;would overcome the&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>. This is why it writes, \u201cThe offering of God,\u201d to break the power and assertiveness of a harsh&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It writes, \u201cA broken spirit,\u201d so that this forceful spirit of the&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>&nbsp;will be broken and its spirit, strength, and assertiveness will not increase. At that time, man should stand on the altar with a broken spirit and be ashamed of his actions, so that this assertive spirit will be broken. It is all in order for the&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>&nbsp;to be perfumed and for&nbsp;<em>Rachamim<\/em>&nbsp;to prevail over the&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>54) \u201cWhen any man of you brings an offering unto the Lord.\u201d What is \u201cOf you\u201d? The writing comes to exclude&nbsp;<em>Adam<\/em>&nbsp;<em>ha<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Rishon<\/em>, who made an offering when the Creator created the world. He did not offer cattle or flock, but a horned ox with a single horn. \u201cWhen any man of you brings an offering,\u201d excluding&nbsp;<em>Adam<\/em>&nbsp;<em>ha<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Rishon<\/em>, who was not one of you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>50) On the day when the tabernacle was made good, the Creator hurried to be in it.
