צאינה וראינה ה’תשל”ט Class One: This first class in this Ma’amar deals with the easier parts of the Ma’amar that follow the two that came before it. The idea of ואני המתחיל the Power that comes from Him, Himself to affect ביטול in Yidden and bring together “high” and “low”. What is unique about this…

Three מאמחז”ל replete with contradiction: 1) Were the crowns created by Yidden or the Malachim? 2) Were there one, two or three crowns? How DO we reconcile the מדרש שיר השירים that speaks of one crown from Yidden to Hashem נעטרה שעטרה לו אמו ביום חתונתו The גמרא שבת that when Yidden said נעשה קודם…
