Show Notes

Episode Forty-Nine, entitled 'AWAITING DIFFERENCE’ analyzes the famous Faith Maxin on Moshiach "And even though He may tarry, nonetheless I continue to Await His Coming each day!" To continue to be emotionally invested and be actively "Awaiting" as the time drags on is obviously counterintuitive and unnatural. Maintaining that level of anticipation will obviously take great effort, yet does it really make a practical "Difference?" Based on a brief letter The Rebbe wrote in a time of personal grief, in this Episode you'll be introduced to a range of classic Torah sources on the subject, that ultimately emerge as greater than the sum of their parts. Exquisitely weaving a redemptive faith-filled fabric of hopeful yearning for Moshiach, He makes the case that the Awaiting itself necessarily makes a Difference by serving to accelerate the process of Redemption, thereby hastening a new world order! This Episode comprising the Forty-Ninth segment of an ongoing study series on The Geula, our final Redemption referred to as the Coming of Moshiach (Messiah).

Episode Transcript

Episode Fifty, 'AWAITING DIFFERENCE - Part Two’ takes the novel understanding of the famous Faith Maxim on Moshiach: although He tarries "I will continue to Await" [His Coming] each day..." into a groundbreaking fresh field of discovery. In this second segment we will learn just how powerful taking this path of greatest resistance can be. The newfound appreciation should inspire us all to try harder to actively "Await" -- despite the obvious challenges of maintaining an unnatural emotion. Culled from the same manuscript as the previous Episode -- from which several classic (and neo classic) sources were creatively collated to prove how impactful "hopeful yearning" for Moshiach can be, here, the envelope is pushed much further. This Episode reaches deep into a related, while unique Zoharic teaching that is significantly, and profoundly illuminated in Chasidic Teachings. The result is the emergence of a stunning new picture of perfection attained through perspiration! Comprising the Fiftieth segment in our ongoing study series on The Geula, our final Redemption referred to as the Coming of Moshiach (Messiah), this class is dedicated l'zechut a full Refuah and long life for Chaim Mordechai ben Raizel.
