Parshas נשא - Rabbi Dovid Dubov - From the Rebbe’s Father Reb Levi Yitzchok זצ״ל

from Short Insights from Toras Reb Levi Yitzchok, The Rebbe's Father · host Toras Reb Levi Yitzchok / Rabbi Dovid Dubav

FROM THE REBBE’S FATHER זצ״ל    נשא The Zohar writes Vol 3, 145a. (Brought down in Alter Rebbe Shulchon Uruch) The kohanim should raise their hands to shoulder level, for the Priestly Blessing may be recited only with raised hands. They should raise their right hand a little higher than their left hand.  Regarding the requirement for the Kohanim to spread and raise their hands, the Zohar explains: When the Kohanim spread their fingers down here on earth, it arouses the Shechina above to descend and rest on the Jewish People. There are other instances when this applies, and this is the reason for Lulav and Shofar both being done with the fingers. (Zohar, Vol. 3, 145a.) Questions: 1. Why is the right hand specifically raised over the left hand? 2. Why are the Mitzvos of Lulav and Shofar used as an example? 3. Why does the Zohar switch the order of these Mitzvos as they appear in the calendar from Shofar (Rosh Hashanah) and Lulav (Suk- kos) to Lulav and Shofar? מאביו של הרבי זצ״ל - נשא ברכת כהנים יברכך ה׳ וישמרך: יאר ה׳ פניו אליך ויחנך: ישא ה׳ פניו אליך וישם לך שלום (נשא ו, כד.כה.כו.) מבאר מ״ש בזהר (נשא קמה, א. מובא בשו״ע אדמוה״ז הל׳ ברכת כהנים), מהו הטעם דבשעת ברכת כהנים , מגביה  הכהן יד ימין למעלה מיד שמאל? מהו הענין של הידים? מבאר מ״ש בזהר שם, דוגמאות של מצוות העושים עם הידים והיינו טעמא דלולב והיינו טעמא דשופר, מה הקשר בין ברכת כהנים עם לולב ושופר? למה נקט הזהר לולב קודם שופר, הרי מצות שופר קודם בזמן? לקוטי לוי יצחק , הערות לזהר שמות דברים ע׳ שסח
