b'Rabbi Kalman Worch leads the Shiur through the beautiful passages of this classic work of the Italian scholarRabbi Shimshon Chaim ben Rabbi Nachman Michal Nachmani, who passed away in 1779 .Rav Shimshon in his extensive essays on Parshas Shmini,working off the final section of the Parsha and the Pasuk \\u05dc\\u05b0\\u05d4\\u05b7\\u05d1\\u05b0\\u05d3\\u05bc\\u05b4\\u0595\\u05d9\\u05dc \\u05d1\\u05bc\\u05b5\\u05a5\\u05d9\\u05df \\u05d4\\u05b7\\u05d8\\u05bc\\u05b8\\u05de\\u05b5\\u0596\\u05d0 \\u05d5\\u05bc\\u05d1\\u05b5\\u05a3\\u05d9\\u05df \\u05d4\\u05b7\\u05d8\\u05bc\\u05b8\\u05d4\\u0591\\u05b9\\u05e8quotes a long form of our Havdalah Bracha that makes mention of Tumaah and Taharah and the Upper and Lower primordial waters,and the distinctions between Kohanim,Leviim and Yisroelim.Rabbi Worch leads the class through Rav Shimshon\'s ingenious deciphering of the list that bears on the fundamentals of our faith and will enhance your recitation every Motzei Shabbas.The last part of the lecture deals with the fascinating sources that indicate that many aspects of our Kashrus laws will be altered in the Messianic age,the Zera Shimshon explains this startling concept and allows it to be the springboard into next week\'s Torah reading,Tazria and the underscoring of the Mitzvah of Milah in its first few verses and why circumcision is performed even on Shabbas.Rabbi Shimshon Chaim had only one child, a son, who died at a young age. Rabbi Shimshon Chaim decided to dedicate his \'Sefarim\' to the memory of this child who had no continuity of a family. Hence the name "Zera Shimshon" In the introduction to his work,he promises that anyone that takes upon himself to learn from his writing, will be granted"children, praise, health, \'parnasa\', wealth, honor".We thank the Illinois Center for Jewish Studies for the use of this materialPlease leave us a review or email us at ravkiv@gmail.comFor more information on this podcast visityeshivaofnewark.jewishpodcasts.org See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
