21. Ki Tisa Es Rosh 5744, a Parshas Shkalim Ma’amar

This Ma’amar explores that Machatzis HaShekel has a message ‘klali’, we are a half and the other half is our schar- connection to Hashem. Three steps: 1) Bittul until Mesiras Nefesh as is indicated in the idea of 1) Ze Yitnu, giving with no constraint, 2) a half 2) Above the bittul is the ‘ten’ these are the faculties of the person (in the image of the Supernal man) no one has less than ten and no one has more, but the rich man’s ten are quite different than the poor man’s ten. 3) Emuna that descends into the ten, through the intervention of Moshe.
