Shemot - The Secret of Success through the Three Alephs
from Parsha with Rabbi David Bibi · host david bibi
Shemot - The Secret of Success through the Three Alephs based on the Shvilei Pinchas The Chida, zy”a, writes in Avodat Kodesh (7), “concerning the appellation: ” אהיה אשר אהיה . Heexplains that this name employed in tefilah is capable of affecting salvation for everything in the world: I found in the manuscripts of the kabbalists that it is “ appropriate for a person to pray to the appellation אהיה אשר אהיה ” for any problem in this world — for sickness, for children, for wisdom, to be remembered, for monetary matters, to be saved from a storm at sea, for danger on the roads. It is essential, however, that he be pure, and that he utter sincerely: “Let it be the will of the esteemed name אהיה אשר אהיה ” “ that You have mercy on me and act on my behalf.” He should state his request clearly, and should repeat it three times. יהי רצון מלפניך השם הגדול אהיה , אשר אהיה שתרחם עלי ותעשה, וישאל בקשתו בלשון ברור, וכן יאמר ג’ פעמים But how does this work? Additionally, it is worth examining the statement in the TikuneiZohar (144b) that with the words: ” — “ אהיה אשר אהיה HKB”H alludes to tefillin shel yad and tefillin shel rosh. For, in thefour passages contained in the tefillin shel rosh, the name Havayaappears twenty-one times — the numerical value of thename אהי”ה ; this is alluded to by the first אהי”ה . Similarly, inthe four passages contained in the tefillin shel yad, the nameHavaya appears twenty-one times — accounting for thesecond mention of the name אהי”ה . Thus, the two tefillin together are alluded to by the phrase: ” אהיה אשר אהיה “.
