Shaalooommmm sweeetest friendsssss!!!!
This dvar torah should be a zchus for my beloved friend Moshe Yehuda ben Pesha Dina that he should have amazing simcha and success this year!!!
Also - to Daniel Simcha ben Chava Reizel for all the brachos!!!
In this weeks parsha we read האזינו השמים ואדברה - Listen the heavens and I will speak. ותשמע הארץ אמרי פי - And the earth will hear the words of my mouth.
The word שמים is an allusion to the soul and the word ארץ is an allusion to the body.
The word דיבור always means to speak TO someone, it connotes connection. לדבר עם - To speak with. You don't say אמר עם - because the word אמר does not necessitate connection. That is why Hashem gave us the ten דברות - because there was a deep connection. When he created the world and nobody existed he used מאמרות - from the word אמר. The utterances were without connection to others.
The Zohar Hakadosh says that after Moshe died, he shined in the souls of all Jews through the song of Haazinu. So the pasuk says - האזינו השמים ואדברה - Listen the soul [שמים] and we will connect through my speech. It uses a future tense [ואדברה - I will speak] because even after he dies we will listen . ותשמע הארץ אמרי פי - Let the body [ארץ] listen to my words but without a strong connection [אמרי] because Moshe connects to our souls and not to our bodies
[Based on the Eretz Tzvi of Rav Aryeh Tzvi Fromer Hy"d Ztz"l]
In every generation we can connect to Moshe Rabbeinu and to all of the tzadikim of all the generations. We can do this by learning their teachings and reading about their lives. In this way we can be inspired and become that person whom others look to for inspiration.
Have a delicious shabbos sweetest friends!!!
