This class explores how Klipa was created and (through Adam and Chava’s choice) was interwoven into the creation creating an entanglement (Taaruvos). This added the purpose of birurim (disentangling) to creation to create perfect order (Hiskalelus). There’s a huge difference between the Torah of Daas Tov vaRa and actual Tov VaRa.
