Betach'un for life, sheers, 1681, Yoyim Hamishi Bishabis, Parshis Wa'irah. Today's sheer has been generously sponsored as a scuse for Yeshua's. This scuse of Lima Rataire and Chizek of all the listeners should be as rash and send them Yeshua's and Brochis La'irah Yaman Taybim. We are discussing how sometimes a person maintains their betach'in and the Yeshua doesn't come immediately. And we're giving different reasons how a person can approach it. But there's one thing that we have to keep in mind, a very important idea. The Ghimmar and Rajeshana, and Afghavala Fumadbe says, non-share bina nivribu'ilam. There are 50 shaharim of bina of understanding. 50 gates of understanding, that's a little translation.
We're created in the world. There are 50 levels of bina that a person can have. But the kula nittenule maisha khasarachad. All of them were given to maisha abeinu, besides one, meaning maisha abeinu only had 49 levels of bina. He was missing the 50th. And Abkhayim Briskher, Khayim Salavacic explained, why was maisha abeinu missing the 50th level of bina? And he says a fascinating thing and it's something we all have to understand. He says, one of the 613 mitzvis is the mitzvav amuna, to believe, even though you don't understand. If maisha abeinu would have had the 50th shahar, he would have understood everything. And it would be impossible for him to have amuna, because amuna means that you believe it, even though you don't understand it. So obviously, there are banish lalam
had to hold back one shahar of bina, to give maisha abeinu the opportunity to have amuna. A fascinating idea. And it's very important for us to internalize this. Yes, we have struggles and yes, we know that when we have betakhin, that as our shahar will have you sure, we'll come closer to how Khadish barakul. But there are always going to be things that we're not going to understand. That's amuna. That means even though to us, it doesn't make sense, but a yid who believes in the rebanish lalam has amuna understands that there are things that you don't understand. It has to be like that. Or else you don't have that mitzvah of amuna. The mitzvah of amuna means that I believe, even though I don't understand. And therefore, there are banish lalam held back from maisha abeinu. The 50 is shahar,
so he should be able to have things that he doesn't understand. We are not anywhere close to that level. But when we do have situations that we don't understand, we should remember this concept. Amuna means you don't understand. You can't understand everything. That's the mitzvah of amuna. We trust, we believe, that there are banish lalam is controlling the world and doing everything correctly. Even though we don't understand it, and it's impossible for us to understand everything. Because that's the mitzvah of amuna. The foundation of all the mitzvah or naikhi ashamalay kechal, the mitzvah of amuna is built on the concept that we don't understand something. So when we don't understand it, we shouldn't get frustrated and upset. It's the basic foundation of Yiddishkeit. It's amuna.
