Mamer D"H Vayikra El Moshe 5736 #2, Rabbi Yoosi Paltiel 5782

Description

Vayikra 5736 Class Two. This class is on the beginning and the end of the Ma’amar (and I explain the Ma’amar as I understand it, and שגיאות מי יבין; ואם שגיתי השם הטוב יכפר). There’s ויקרא with no name of Hashem mentioned and there’s וידבר (with Hashem’s name mentioned). He explores the little Alpeh of Vayikra (ויקרא) considering that it means endearment. We explain that there’s the ויקרא with the little Alpe that is lower than the medium and large Aleph, and there’s the ויקרא with the little Aleph which is higher than all the letters. It plays out in learning Torah after the Bittul of Moshe (and us) and Hashem’s love for him (and us); but it also culminates with the Bittul and Chiba which is higher than anything else.
