Shira Smiles Shiur
We are resuming sending out the weekly Shira Smiles shiur. Please note that there is a live video showing every Sunday morning at 10:00 AM in the Young Israel of Midwood. Please pass this on to others. If you know of anyone who would like to be added on to a weekly email please forward me the email address. GAD'S GREATNESS Shira Smiles shiur: Elul 5784 Adapted by Channie Koplowitz Stein As we approach the Yomim Noraim, we have the month of Elul to prepare for that auspicious season. We look for ways to help us connect to the work of that month. The three best known acronyms for ????/ Elul [??? ????? ????? ??; ??? ????? ?????? ????????; ??? ?? ???? ??? ??? ????]. [Upon examining these three acronyms, we will note that the first is about our relationship with God, the second is about our relationship with others, and the third is about our relationship with ourselves.] We can also reach some insights from examining how each of the twelve tribes of Bnei Yisroel is associated with a different month of the year, as the Shvilei Pinchas cites the Beis Yissaschar. For our discussion, we will focus on Shevet Gad, the tribe associated with the month of Elul. The Shvilei Pinchas begins with the name Leah gave to this son, born to the family through her maidservant Zilpah. Naming him Gad, she proclaims,"?? ??/luck has come to me," noting that this child was born circumcised. However, Leah's proclamation is written in the Torah as one word, ???, a word that translates as rebellion. Could Leah have sinned by offering her maidservant to Yaakov as a wife when she herself already had children? Yet, Gad had a special place and mission in Bnei Yisroel. As Yaakov Avinu says in his final blessings to his sons, "Gad will recruit a regiment... [when he will go at the forefront of his brothers to capture the land under Yehoshua's leadership]." Yet Gad is a symbol for us in the month of Elul. As Rabbi Rothberg writes, that Gad was born circumcised indicates an elevated status, of one who has already separated himself from total involvement in physical indulgence and is orienting himself to the world of spirituality. Indeed, this is the work of the Month of Elul, to do teshuvah, work on returning our soul to the pristine state as when it first descended into our bodies. Circumcision involves the removal of the physical barrier, the orlah, that represents pure physical indulgence. One who is born without the foreskin is already on a higher level, explains Rabbi Adler in Parsha Illuminations. However, there seems to be a disconnect between the ideal of minimizing materialism and Gad's request for land on the other side of the River, land with plentiful pasture for their flocks. But Rav Rothberg in Moda Labina provides us with the hidden motivation for Gad's request. Gad knew that they were fortunate to be wealthy with so much sheep, and they feared that they would be corrupted by such wealth. They also knew that Moshe Rabbenu was buried in this area. They hoped that the spiritual energy of Moshe's final resting place would protect them from the negative influence of their wealth. Borrowing from Mesillas Yeshorim, Rabbi Gamliel Rabinowitz urges us to maintain clarity of purpose. While our focus must be on olam habo, we must maintain that focus even while involved in this physical, material world. Can we use our physical and material assets to further our spirituality, or, chas veshalom, do we take even the spiritual and contaminate it with physical purpose? As the Ohel Moshe asks: People travel across the ocean for a business opportunity; would you do the same for the opportunity to do a mitzvah? The more energy we expend on the physical and material, adds Rabbi Reisman, the less energy do we have for the spiritual. Rabbi Schwadron zt¡±l brings us a lesson from an image in the allegorical Shir Hashirim. My Beloved knocks on the door. "Open the door for Me, My sister., My dove." At first I am reluctant to get out of bed, but I get up/???? ??? and ????? ??? ?????/I opened the door for my Beloved, but He had turned and left. Why did my Beloved, Hashem,
