Class One. Little text was read in this class. The idea explored (which is apparently the essence of the Ma’amar) is the idea that all levels of יראה are connected because at their root is ביטול. In a similar vein all levels of תשובה are connected even the lowliest of a sinner and the loftiest of a great Tzadik. We attempted to explain why this is based on the idea that on the highest level (of essence) we are not joining with God but are really one with Him.
Class Two. This Ma’amar asks and answers five questions based on the principle that all Teshuvos are one. Two big ideas emerge: 1) Even Tzadikim can do Teshuva as all Teshuvos are one and nothing can stand in Teshuva’s way. 2) Even the Rasha’s Teshuva has an eternal unchanging element.
