Thank you for videos as Christian Mom (from non-giving family) and Jewish Dad (giving grandparents) and easy analogies (candle, water/Abraham/love/Hessed, Gevurah/Wonder woman/?soil?). I was amazed at the difference between the polarities of Hessed and Gevurah in the Kabbalah and America and the Shadra. This makes more sense in balance in my life and what I see.
Thank you my brother, born of a Muslim father and Roman Catholic mother raised in the east and listening to you it’s obvious that there is only 1 source 1 message but different tribes, different interpretation that makes it applicable to that tribe. Still 1 message 1 Source. I was therefore blessed to hear your message. Thank you🙏🏽. Inlakesh

The Lord hath heard my prayer, The Lord hath looked down upon the whole of the earth from His Holy Sanctuary, and hath seen the downtrodden, the prisoners of iniquity appointed to death, yes, the Lord hath heard mine prayer, the Lord hath heard the crying of His people, For all the day long my spirit weeps, my soul heavy under mine iniquity, but in You Oh My God, In You there is redemption. The Lord Hath heard mine prayer, the sacrifice of broken spirit my offering, I have known mine sin, mine sins I will confess, for in you boundless redemption emanates, only in you Oh Lord My God do I trust. I am thine servant, mine enemies approach from many degrees, they wait for my foot to slip, but in You Oh Lord My God, In You do I find refuge. The Lord hath heard my prayer, I Am Thy Servant Lord, teach me Thy ways and instruct me in Thy Holy Law, for I am Thine Servant. I have wondered at the work of Thy hands Oh Lord My God, I have pondered the bountiful creation of Thy Hands, I have sought dreams of the Majesty of the Heavens whose foundations lay to ends and degrees unknown. I have contemplated the beauty and might of Thine audience, as brilliant pillars of fire, whose features one covered in filth may not behold, the terrifying might of thine Holy Servants, the Appointed Angelic Audience whose countenance petrified and made stiff as to die and wither the workers of iniquity. How then if even they at lower degree no man can behold, how shall any man stand before thee? The Lord hath heard my prayer! My heart Overflows as washed in the tender mercies of The Lord My God, He hath heard my prayer, the whole of myself have I laid before The Only True God. I will remember my sin, I will walk a new path, hide not Thine Face from me Oh Lord My God, I Am Your Servant, in You alone do I give Thanks, for a time we are and wither, but You Oh Lord My God, You remain Eternal, from before the foundations You Spoke Into the Ends of Creation, until the shaking of the foundations, only You my God remain. The Lord hath Heard Mine Prayer, flee ye workers of iniquity, for the Lord My God Who Is and Was and Is To Come, the One True God hath heard mine prayer. I am ashamed at mine Transgressions but in You Oh Lord My God In You I find mercy, In You Oh My God I find a New Path, I Am Thine Servant Oh Lord My God, I have become whole as in marriage with thy Holy Decree, I will walk in The ways of old, which Thou Have Instructed and as a Law having walked in flesh, Oh Lord My God, I Am thine Servant, In You Alone Father Do I give All Glory. The Lord Hath Heard Mine Prayer.

There are many metaphors that apply well, LisaCraig. Yes, if Hesed is water and Gevurah is fire, then Tiferet can be seen as a plant - a new flow of energy that develops from the combination of sun and water.
Thanks for your question, Ally. Kabbalah, like all Jewish practices, insists that there is no reality outside of the oneness of the Infinite source. Worshipping anything but the one G0D is the ultimate breach of the practice of Kabbalah. I hope that clears up any misconceptions, and thanks for watching our class. Wishing you fulfilling studies!
@@jessespad I would say the opposite, but the Donme make things slightly uncertain. Definitely no followers of Sabbatai Zevi in any branch of normative Judaism. His conversion to Islam was a catastrophe for many Eastern European Jews. This info on Donme seems good: www.britannica.com/topic/Judaism Thanks for the question, and glad you are watching our channel!
Hey....I am Catholic and we tend to believe esoteric things are from the devil. Even some rabbi on youtube said it was dangerous to learn Kaballah, that just good people should teach it and learn it.
Thanks for your comments, Protestantismo. One key distinction is that Judaism teaches that nothing in creation opposes G0d except, seemingly, human free will. In our understanding, Satan is following G0d's commands by testing humans, and is part of G0d's plan. That being shared, every phenomenon has a holy aspect and a mundane aspect. The holy aspect is openly surrendered to G0d or nullified to G0d's oneness, while the mundane aspect believes it has its own existence, and styles itself as having a reality independent of G0d. The same is true of esoteric knowledge. Some is holy, and some is counterproductive. This branch of Jewsih mysticism, however, was developed by nine generations of Chassidic masters, and is crafted to be taught openly to any student. Of course having a good teacher is critical, but it is free of any of the pitfalls that may have tripped students up in earlier generations. I hope that addresses some of what you raised, and thank you for learning with us!

Hello Joe,
Born of a Jewish grandmother and Roman Catholic father. Light unites us all.
Beautiful and well articulated
So glad you are enjoying these classes, Jonny!
This is good stuff; very illuminating. Thank you for making it available!
Awesome meditation at end! Thank you Rabbi!
Thank you for offering this. I live in the country and have no other outlet to learn
very good profound teacher
Tiphareth reminds me of Aristotle’s mean in Nicomachean Ethics. Each situation calls for its own balance or blend.
A wonderful observation, Phoebe. As well, Kabbalah and Aristotle share a focus on correct action.
Good to have you learning with us!

What is the name of the book of meditations used in this lesson?
Thank you for learning with us, 1kimmy2many. We are using Rabbi Laibl Wolf's book Practical Kabbalah available here: a.co/d/4845nRv
thank you for this episode!

So Gamut is like a ship in a bottle; but Hessed is like an ecosystem inside the bottle, once water and plants are added(?): or is that Tif’eret?
There are many metaphors that apply well, LisaCraig. Yes, if Hesed is water and Gevurah is fire, then Tiferet can be seen as a plant - a new flow of energy that develops from the combination of sun and water.
@@TempleIsraelMI , thank you!
Is the animal soul equivalent to the yetzer hara?
The Yetzer Hara is the emotional expression of the Animal Soul
People keep saying to stay away from such practices as Kabbalah. They say it's satanic and lucifier worship at it's core any truth in this?
Thanks for your question, Ally.

@@TempleIsraelMI Are there modern-day Sabbateans?
Outside of my expertise @@jessespad
@@TempleIsraelMI Thanks for the response. I guess the answer is yes.
