כִּי שְׁתַּיִם רָעוֹת עָשָׂה עַמִּי אֹתִי עָזְבוּ מְקוֹר מַיִם חַיִּים לַחְצֹב לָהֶם בֹּארוֹת בֹּארֹת נִשְׁבָּרִים אֲשֶׁר לֹא יָכִלוּ הַמָּיִם:
We continue on with insights in the popular chapter that we say three times per day, Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha. The main A part of Ashrei, אַ֭שְׁרֵי יוֹשְׁבֵ֣י בֵיתֶ֑ךָ ע֝֗וֹד יְֽהַלְל֥וּךָ סֶּֽלָה׃ is present in Tehilim chapter 84,5. The Chida, his commentary Yosef Tehilot, quotes from the Rama M’Pano, who asks the next dilemma: The appropriate Hebrew for this verse אַ֭שְׁרֵי יוֹשְׁבֵ֣י בֵיתֶ֑ךָ Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha, which suggests, “ Privileged are the ones who sit in Your house,” should be אשרי יושבי ב ביתך Ashrei Yoshvei B’ Betecha Privileged are those who sit in your house. Exactly what does “ Fortuitous are the ones that sit your house ,” suggest? He points out that it seriously means is, “Fortunate are classified as the people today, who, they them selves, grow to be your home..the chair, the dwelling area of God Himself.” So we examine it as Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha, Those who sit and turn out to be The house. They're Your hous e. They are God's residence. That is the occupation of each Jew, as we are saying, “Zeh Eli V’Anvehu/That is God, and I'll develop a dwelling place for Him.” The dwelling spot for Him isn’t just an external making much like the Guess Hamikdash or maybe the Mishkan, but fairly the individual himself . This idea exhibits up while in the Alshech, who clarifies, the pasuk exactly where Hashem claims V’Asu Li Mikdash/Make for Me a Mikdash, and I’ll dwell in them . It doesn't say dwell in it ( meaning the Mishkan). “ I’ll dwell in them , usually means the Jewish men and women. These days, we don't have a Mishkan or Mikdash. But We've got our prayer. And once we pray, God dwells in us . We speak with God when we pray, due to the fact He’s there. Once we pray, He comes down, for the extent that there's a Halacha that one particular is not permitted to wander in front of somebody though they're praying. The simple rationale is mainly because it will distract them. But the further rationale is for the reason that after they're praying, the House close to them will become holy, similar to a Wager Mikdash, in order to't enter that holy zone which is bordering anyone every time they're praying. And that explains, going back to we reviewed yesterday, how the pious Adult males of aged, would ponder for one hour before they prayed. As we mentioned, the supply was Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha/ Fortuitous are people that (just) sit and hold out. But now We've a deeper rationalization: Fortunate are the ones that turn out to be God's house . How can we come to be God's household? What brings the Shechina down? It comes down only as a result of imagined and contemplation. As well as the Shulchan Aruch brings down that these pious Guys of old would reach such large levels of relationship that it had been Practically just like a prophecy.
We will spend a while discussing the mizmor of Ashrei that we are saying three times each day. A lot is claimed about Ashrei. Actually, who suggests it thrice a day is guaranteed Olam Haba. The Mishna in Masechet Berachot (fifth chapter) describes how the Hasidim HaRishonim /pious Guys of outdated would take one hour in advance of they prayed, in an effort to have good kavana . The Gemara in Berachot 32B claims the source for This can be, Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha/lucky are those that sit in Your property. But how? Where by do we see, through the phrases “ Fortunate are the ones that sit in Your property,” that a person is supposed to ponder right before prayer? Among the explanations is usually that “ Privileged are the ones that sit in Your property, ”means that you won't have to say something. Just sitting in your own home accomplishes one thing. That is significant, and it’s brought down in every one of the poskim and commentators. The significance of ready prior to deciding to pray is brought down l’halacha during the Rambam. It states that a person ought to expend some time prior to he prays, to apparent his intellect of all the clutter so as to be able to center on the fact that he is standing in front of God in prayer. Our minds are so chaotic and so preoccupied that we must get out that point. Rav Wolbe, in his sefer Alei Shor (vol 2, pg 359), says which the Hasidim HaRishonim waited one hour. We really need to wait some thing . What does ‘ anything’ signify? He suggests that 5 minutes might be an excessive amount of, so try a person minute within the clock. Sit for a person minute, within your place, and say nothing. Just understand that you are about to stand in front of Hashem and filter the clutter of one's brain. He states that we're regularly rushed, within our modern existence. We're often relocating at that quickly speed, and we need to decelerate before we pray. So he indicates sitting down for one particular moment. And that is our Ashrei Yoshveh Betecha. This fortune arrives by way of sitting , waiting and getting ready, whether or not in shul or at your home, prior to deciding to pray. This concept did not to start with exhibit up with the Hasidim HaRishonim. Based on the Seforno’s comprehending, it’s basically a command from God Himself. In Bereshit 35,1, Hashem tells Yaakov Avinu, וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֱלֹהִים֙ אֶֽל־יַעֲקֹ֔ב ק֛וּם עֲלֵ֥ה בֵֽית־אֵ֖ל “ Go and get up and go to Bet El and dwell there .
Usually translated as “trust,” bitachon is a powerful sense of optimism and confidence based not on explanation or experience, but on emunah. You recognize that “G‑d is good and He’s the sole just one in cost,” and as a consequence you don't have any fears or frets.
That may be why wheat, out of each of the vegetation, is decided on to say “ from the depths,” and that is why after we converse about our berachot , there is a distinction between Hamotzi Lechem Min Haaretz and Boreh Peri HaAdamah . He suggests the phrase HaAretz refers back to the depths Whilst Adamah is the upper, a lot more superficial layer. So the opposite greens originate from Adamah and also the Lechem will come Min Haaretz . The message is the fact that out with the depths, within the rotting and seeming deterioration is wherever The expansion will come. This is exactly why we say Et Semach David/ the growth of David Hamelech . We mention the development of Mashiach Ben David being a growth. We mention Boneh Yerushalayim like a creating , but we also take a look at growth . The symbolism of progress is the fact that it comes when points are deteriorating. Progress will come when it looks like matters are only getting ruined, and we don't see any development. That's the way progress will come about- only by way of deterioration. And that's why we sing this music of Shir Hamaalot/A music with the depths, to realize that that's the place expansion originates from. The commentaries express that we sit on the floor we sit on the floor on Tisha B’Av- to symbolize that we're happening. But then, in the middle of the day, at Hatzot, we stand up- simply because as we know, it says Mashiach is becoming designed on Hatzot of Tisha B’Av. Just at the point in which we are taking place and seemingly rotting and deteriorating, that is where by Hashem is preparing the future expansion. That is the message on the wheat kernel, and that's the psalm of Shir HaMaalot Karaticha/in the depths I get in touch with to You might have an exquisite daily bitachon day.

(17) Now יהוה had said, “Shall I disguise from Abraham what I'm about to do, (18) because Abraham is to be an incredible and populous country and many of the nations from the earth are to bless by themselves by him? (19) For I have singled him out, that he may possibly instruct his small children and his posterity to maintain the way of יהוה by performing what is just and correct, in order that יהוה might convey about for Abraham what has become promised him.
