0626 - Adding an Explanation to a Sicha in Lekutei Sichos in Nigleh

00:00 In Likutei Sichas, Chelek Yutes, the Sichah to Chag HaSukkos, page 348, the Rebbe asks a kasha in nigleh, what is the difference between the dalet minim and the mitzvah of sukkah? Even though in both places it says that should be yours, Chag HaSukkos tasa lecho, and by the dalet minim be'esrik and lulav it says, lakachtem lachem beyom rishon. Nevertheless, there's a difference that by the dalet minim be'esrik and lulav there, you cannot be yetzer when you use a borrowed one. It has to be given to you as a present, but you can't use it as a borrowed one. While you could use a sukkah that's borrowed, even though in both places it says it should be yours. The Rebbe has a whole avichas there in the kasha based on the Alter Rebbe's Shulchan Aruch, et cetera, et cetera. Then the Rebbe has one paragraph, which is the answer al pi nigleh, and then goes into a whole sichah to answer al pi chsidus. Now, the way I remember is that when that sichah was given unto the Rebbe, there was no answer there al pi nigleh, because in the farbrengen, the Rebbe did not give an answer al pi nigleh, he just gave the answer al pi chsidus. So the Rebbe wrote that how could you ask a strong kasha? He doesn't write the word strong. I don't remember the loshon, but something like if there's a kasha al pi nigleh, it has to be answered al pi nigleh, and then you could go into

01:18 chsidus. And that's when the Rebbe wrote the answer al pi nigleh, and then continued there is the answer al pi chsidus. But the Rebbe wrote that if you ask a kasha al pi nigleh, you have to have an answer al pi nigleh. Even though we do find sichas where the Rebbe writes that there are certain kashas al pi nigleh that you don't find the answer al pi nigleh. The only answer you could find is al pi pnimyus, al pi chsidus. But obviously, this was one of those that the Rebbe felt that there is an answer. So he said you can't just write it and skip the answer al pi nigleh, and the Rebbe put in the answer al pi nigleh, very bekitzur. So when you learn that part, it's stuck in very bekitzur to write the difference between esrik and lulav, l'gabi sukkah. Why by esrik and lulav it can be borrowed, and here it could. You gotta really learn to understand the pshat in that word. But the Rebbe wrote it because he said that you have to have an answer al pi nigleh if the kasha is al pi nigleh, and then you could go on into answer al pi chsidus.
