Rosh<\/em> Hashanah<\/em> [New Year\u2019s Eve] for the trees. Man is called \u201cthe tree of the field,\u201d and Rosh<\/em> Hashanah<\/em> is the time of sentencing\u2014for judgment or for mercy. Hence, the month of Shevat<\/em> is the fifth of the winter months, which is regarded as Hod<\/em>, when Daveh<\/em> [affliction] becomes Hod<\/em> [glory\/majesty].<\/p>\n\n\n\n This means that when we are rewarded with walking in the quality of Hesed<\/em>, he extends from the Sefira<\/em> of Hesed<\/em> to Hod<\/em>, and all the blessing is in the quality of Hesed<\/em> [mercy\/kindness], as it is written, \u201cFor I said, a world of Hesed<\/em> shall be built,\u201d where through the blessing we are rewarded with fruits. It is as Baal HaSulam wrote, that this is why on the 15th<\/sup> of Shevat<\/em> we bless on the fruits, since this is the whole distinction between Kedusha<\/em> [holiness] and Klipa<\/em> [shell\/peel], for \u201cAnother God is sterile and does not bear fruit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The success in the work to be rewarded with fruits is only through Hesed<\/em>, since when we work with the quality of bestowal, called Hesed<\/em>, we are rewarded with Dvekut<\/em> [adhesion] with the Creator, and when we are rewarded with Dvekut<\/em>, we are rewarded with everything. Hence, on the 15th<\/sup> of Shevat<\/em>, called Rosh<\/em> Hashanah<\/em> for the trees, we must strengthen ourselves with the quality of Hesed<\/em>, for by this we will be rewarded with fruits called \u201cA fruit bearing tree.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" February 7, 1955 Rosh Hashanah [New Year\u2019s Eve] for the trees.
