Bayis - A person's Home - Part 17

00:00 Beham shech in continuation to the earlier installments on the topic of Bayis Yehudi, a Jewish home, we now continue with installment number seventeen and concluding this series on Bayis Yehudi, discussing the Rebbe's insights on the Geulah redemption, and that also our homes will be included in this Geulah. In the Sicha tav shmem zayin, early 1987, the Rebbe spoke about the Jewish nation wandering in Galus. The Sicha was translated by Sichas in English, and we'll read it from the translation. May we merit that speedily we will see the ful-fulfillment of you shall declare emancipation all over the world. Ukrasam dreir, complete and true salvation. So long as Jews are in exile, they are not at home, but in a state of children who have been exiled from their father's table. And so they cry out, "How long?" Dovid HaMelech expressed it as follows, "Even the bird has found a home, and the wild bird a nest." This is mentioned in Psalms and Tehillim, Chapter eighty-four. Hashem has mercy on all his creations, and divine providence will see to it that this small bird will find a home. It will have to search for it, but it will find a real permanent house. The migratory bird who moves from place to place will also be provided for by Hashem, blessed He, that even in a temporary stopover it will find a place to rest. And yet, the child of the Supreme King of Kings, the Holy One, Hashem Baruch Hu, has no home or nest, not even

02:07 a temporary home. The Jewish people must be buffeted from place to place in the diaspora in this lowly, dark world. Hence the question and the cry, how long? Till when must the, the child of the Supreme King of Kings, the Holy One, Hashem, blessed be He, wander in the exile? The only answer is, as it is mentioned, "I have found my servant David, and in all their affliction it is also painful to Hashem, as a result of which the Jewish people who are compared to a bird will find a true house, the Beis Hamikdash. May it come speedily in our days through the clouds of heaven, which will form a temporary nest and then b-- and then bring all the Jews to the permanent, abad the future temple which is built and ready, waiting to be revealed from heaven. Even as the bird has found a home, and the swallow is migratory, swift-flying, b- uh, songbird, a nest for herself and where she lays her young on the ruins of your altar, Elekehatzvakeis, my King and my God. In a Sicha on the twentieth of Av, tav shin lamed daled 1974, the Rebbe speaks about the work Maaseh Nevah Avodah Zenu on the time of Galus exile. And this is a preparation for the upcoming redemption. So the Rebbe continues that in this work, the Neshei Ubanei Yisroel, the women and the daughters of the Jewish nation are more than the Balabatim husbands, because it is dependent on them that the house should be moley

04:19 shvalim. The house should be full of shvalim. As mentioned in an earlier occasion, and as the Rebbe e-elaborated on this concept, that this means the priority of the house should be the shvalim. And the Rebbe says this is even s-- more dependent on women than the men, because the men could only bring the shvalim in the house. But in order to make the priority and the neshama of the house, the soul of the house, and the liveliness of the house as it should be, this is dependent on the homemaker. And then the Rebbe, as he begins concluding the Sicha, adds that a person should know that the house is connected with the shul and the Beis Hamedrash, the study hall. And when he makes the house secondary to the shul and the Beis Hamedrash, so b'meila, when it comes to the redemption, and as the Talmud tells us in the Tractate of Megillah, that all the shul and all the study halls are gonna be transported to Eretz Yisroel, so b'meila also the personal house of a Yid will also move to Eretz Yisroel. And here the Rebbe adds that although I did not see a clear source that it should say in an obvious manner in the Gemara, in the Talmud, the Rebbe continues, aber hagishmakeh zach iz dos. It's a very delightful thing and a good thing, and v'yhi rotzon that it should be fulfilled very soon in the redemption. I'm concluding with a Sicha that the Rebbe delivered on Shabbos Parshat Vayietze,

06:17 10 Kislev. This was the birthday and the passing of the Mitteler Rebbe. The Sicha was delivered in the year tav shin nun beis, which is late 1991. And the Rebbe begins concluding with a beracha that b'negeir to accepting good resolutions in the above-mentioned topics, this should immediately hasten in a revealed state the, the true and ultimate redemption through Mashiach Tzidkeinu, and this will be visible for the f-- e-eyes of flesh of every Yid and of the whole Jewish nation, and immediately all Yidden will be going with the clouds to Eretz Yisroel, together with all our activities that were accomplished in the time of Galus, and together with their physical property, and together with the shul, and also their individual houses. And b'meila everyone will go with goodwill in a way that they are permeated with the light of Chasidus and the Kedusha of the Neshama. And they will all arrive in Eretz Yisroel, in Yerushalayim, to the Beis Hamikdash.
