Yud Tes & Chof Kislev (19th & 20th of Kislev): The Connection

00:00 The hemsach to what we discussed benagiah to Yut es Kislev. So we'll mention now what the Rebbe spoke about the inyan of Chav Kislev and its relationship to Yut es Kislev. The Rebbe explained the concept of Chav Kislev over the years with different biurim, what it represents. On one occasion, the Rebbe said that Yut es Kislev is Rosh Hashanah and the male Rosh Hashanah is inyan of a yema richda. So since the continuation of the geulah was from Yut es to Chav, the Rebbe was actually freed already when it was Chav Kislev after he was in the house of one of the menagdim for three hours. In the same sense, we see also by Rosh Hashanah that although it says in Teydah, one day, one day still we make two days Yom Tov, even in Eretz Yisrael, even in the time that the Beit HaMidrash existed. A yema richda, like one extension. The two days are like one hemsach. In the same sense is benagiah to Yut es and Chav Kislev. In another occasion, it was Yud Beis Tammuz, Tav Shin Dalet Mem, 1984. The Rebbe explained that although the geulah was Yut es Kislev, but still the minhag is to continue the fabringen also in Chav Kislev, which means the rabei and fabreng between Yut es and Chav Kislev, they extended into the second day. And the reason is, as mentioned earlier, because this is when the shleimus of the geulah took place. So the Rebbe says al pi haklal, that there is nothing

01:56 that is not hinted somewhere, alluded in Teydah. So we find it also benagiah to Yemei HaPurim, that although it's Yud Dalet BeOder, still the Yom Tov extends into Shushan Purim. So the Rebbe says what is the common denominator for all the different Yomim Tevim, that the inyan of being in galus, because of galus there's an extra day, there's Yom Tov Sheini Shel Galus. So the Rebbe says since galus accomplishes an increase of the Yom Tov, a Yom Tov Sheini, in days that originally are only one day. From this we understand that besides a Yom Tov is l'chatchilah, because of chidush that was davke instituted in the zman ha'galus, so davke that Yom Tov l'chatchilah has to be shlei yomi. And as the Rebbe explained that since the inyan of the second day of Yut es Kislev is because he was in the house of a melaged, which is connected with galus, so therefore it's Yom Tov Sheini Shel Galus. Al derech like Yud Beis Tammuz, that although he was already told that he's free, Yud Beis, the free Rebbe is to be released, although he was already told on Yud Beis Tammuz, still because of a certain holiday that took place then they were not able to give him a documented release statement till Yud Gimel Tammuz, the two days are days of Yom Tov. And the second day is Yom Tov Sheini Shel Galus, adra because it's also metsad the inyan of galus, as mentioned. On a third occasion, the Rebbe said that the

03:50 two days of Yom Tov, basically the Rebbe says in the inyan of geulah there's two prata. There is the etzem inyan of the geulah, the geulah itself, and then there is its impact in the world, lechoir al ha'aretz, to illuminate in the world. So the Rebbe says l'chen, the etzem inyan ha'geulah, the geulah itself, the redemption of the Rebbe was Tuesday. But since there was a meniya, there was a certain obstacle in the way that the Rebbe wasn't completely free, as mentioned. So therefore the geulah was not yet accomplishing an impact on earth to illuminate and bring out a unique revelation as a result of this geulah. This was accomplished on the next day, which was Wednesday, Chav Kislev.
