Welcome to Monday Torah, a stimulating class by Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Jacobson, one of the most sought after speakers in the Jewish world today and spiritual leader of Congregation Bais Shmuel in Crown Heights.
This week’s class delves into the mysterious whinning note of “marcha kefulah” in the Torah.
It is a rare musical note, found only five times in the entire Torah. It represents profound yearning and lamentation. Why did only five words get this note?
The Kabalistic and Chassidic story behind this note and its relevance to our lives, takes us on a journey into the very yearning of man to cleanse the doors of perception, touch the infinite, and the challenge to synthesize the forces of tension and resolution in our lives.
The weekly video webcast is aired on TheYeshiva.net and COLlive.com each Monday evening at 8:30 PM EST.
