Matanah 5 – Scorpion – Teshuvah Alone Will Not Bring the Geulah – HaShem Himself Davens for Moshiach – Daven for Protection, Not for Wealth – Analogy of a Child Saving Money – Speaker: Rabbi Nasan Maimon.
Hilkhos Matanah 5 is based on Likutey Moharan 22.
08:10 am – PARAGRAPH 32b. It is dangerous to calculate the Ketz – the revelation of Moshiach.
08:30 am – PARAGRAPH 33. Teshuvah Alone Will Not Bring the Geulah – HaShem Himself Davens for Moshiach.
08:55am – Q&R about bringing the geulah – analogy of a child saving up for a trip to Eretz Yisrael.
08:56 am – PARAGRAPH 34a. עַל־זֹאת יִתְפַּלֵּל כָּל־חָסִיד׀ אֵלֶיךָ לְעֵת מְצֹא רַק לְשֵׁטֶף מַיִם רַבִּים אֵלָיו לֹא יַגִּיעוּ – “For this let every pious man pray to You at the time that You are found, only about a flood of vast waters [that] should not reach him” (Tehillim 32:6). Do not overthink and worry. Daven for protection, not for wealth. Instead of asking for material benefits, we need to pray for HaShem’s protection from sudden harm. When we reach out to HaShem for His protection, He not only keeps us safe, but also grants us our needs with kindness.
09:06 am – Closing blessings. NOTE about putting on fresh clothing for Shabbos.
