Sinopsis
Hashem created the world with light and vessels—a delicate balance between spiritual ideals and the structures that hold them. But what happens when that balance is lost? In this shiur, we explore how Hashem’s pristine light descends into the mire and muck of this world—enclothed in form, even in darkness—not by accident, but by design. The vessel may look broken, the light may seem hidden, but the descent is purposeful. We unpack Rav Kook’s powerful warning: when nationalism is severed from its holy source, it becomes a destructive force. But when the nation becomes a vessel for Hashem’s light, nothing is more sacred. The ultimate vision is Am Yisrael as a "goy kadosh", a priestly nation that channels Divine presence into the world. This class dives deep into the Kabbalistic and spiritual framework of light and form, ideal and reality, showing how nationalism can either reflect the highest holiness—or collapse into darkness, depending on whether the light is present within the vessel.
