Chapter 64 Episode 13

Rabbi Shulman continues learning the Maharal on Hallel, focusing on the “מן המצר” section and how Midrash reads “סבוני” as referring to Gog U’Magog—the archetypal head of the nations opposing Malchut Shamayim as expressed through Israel. He outlines a Midrash describing three escalating attempts by Gog U’Magog to attack Yerushalayim, then pivots to a Zohar-based reading of “דחה דחיתני לנפל” as spoken directly to the yetzer hara. Finally, Rabbi Shulman begins unpacking the Maharal’s careful reading of “עָזִּי וְזִמְרָת יָהּ וַיְהִי לִי לִישׁוּעָה,” emphasizing that the “yeshuah” is attributed to Hashem Himself, not to “strength and song.” Outline: https://danielggordon.github.io/ateresami/gvuros-hashem-64m-20260608-031337-outline-20260608-031412.pdf
