Revelations

If I would tell, that God himself spoke through the Rebbe!?
Nah! Can’t be!
Well, without bringing the proofs, the basic idea is this, and it’s an idea that will be the future Torah of Moshiach!
What is Judaism?
Our understanding of what’s Judaism, is very similar to the Rebbe Rashab’s advice/admonishment on how people view a Rebbe: some view him as a experienced man, hence as any person with experience he has to know more than others; some view him as a Torah scholar so as any person in possession of a higher wisdom he aught to know more than others, and its worth adhering to his advice; but some understand, a Rebbe is someone, whose body doesn’t obscure his Godly soul! hence all he says is God!
In other words, what is Torah? some view Torah as a book given by Mosses – sure they believe God dictated it, but fundamentally they compare it to all wisdom, and hence as all wisdom have boundaries, limitations, definability, parameters, so also Torah.
But Torah is not separate from the speaker, as wisdom is separate from the speaker.
When I write a book, that information leaves my domain; however all Torah (until the times of the Shach and Taz – great Rabbis approximately five hundred years ago) including the Torah of the Rebbes was written with Ruach Hakodesh, as rabbi Yosef Cairo the author of the Shulchan Aruch writes “I am in actual fact, an angel speaking through me.”
So all of these writers in fact didn’t write anything, they didn’t consider anything novel, they merely allowed Divinity to be written through them! as prophets allowed God to speak through them!
What’s the difference?!
The difference is very profound, for when something is separated from God (so to speak) it can be defined, labeled, boxed and sorted! However, anything that is part of God, is a living breathing vibration, that as a person singing can change, can actually go higher and lower, can stop and start!
This is why all people in all ages find that whenever they read the Torah (Bible) they are always studying something novel – how can it be? – when we finish reading a book, we never want to read it again, for we got it, and would be bored to reread the same wisdom.
However you could always listen to your favorite musician playing live, because every time he plays he is in fact different, there are nuances that you never noticed, nuances that he enhances, and hence a living vibration is not boring!
