Shvii Shel Pesach (5772)
by Mordechai Dolinsky

We are about to usher in Shvii Shel Pesach. The whole year we draw from our reservoir of Emunah to inspire ourselves to be committed for the fulfillment of the ratzon HaShem. On Pesach, we receive min HaShomayim the hashpaos of this emuna, which we receive through our connecting to yetzias mitzrayim. The greatest gilui of the malchus Hashem was at Krias yam Suf, the shvii of Pesach. Le’ts make ourselves recipients of this emuna by connecting to the many miracles and lessons of Krias Yam Suf.

Have a meaningful and inspiring Yom Tov and gut Shabbos.

The most awesome and challenging aspect of the Seder is the obligation for one to feel as if he himself was redeemed from Mitzrayim.  The true meaning of this is that it is literally true, the fact that he is “out” is only because there is a personalized Will of Hashem and no other factor.

Have a wonderful and significant Shabbos.

The main point of our Yom Tov is to keep focused that every moment is potent with receiving a strengthening and a realization of the emunah and gratitude. Shabbos this is compounded since Shabbos is also related to yetzias mitzrayim and the foundations of emunah.

Receive and enjoy.

Have a wonderful Shabbos and Yom Tov.

Pesach (5770)

As we enter the Yom Tov of Pesach we focus on the main purpose and theme—the strengthening and renewal of the emunah; the belief in Hashem as King of the Universe and our supreme gratitude to Him for which we commit and submit ourselves to His Will.  The main time for this is at the seder and continues the rest of the night and afterward, the rest of Yom Tov.

We should all be zocheh to receive the utmost blessings of the emunah and gratitude.

Chag Kosher V’Sameach.

Shvii Shel Pesach (5769)
By Mordechai Dolinsky

After the greatest demonstration of Hashem’s love for us and control over the universe, comes a cloud that tampers with the excitement and inspiration—the reversal of the Egyptian submission.  This is followed by again an awesome Divine demonstration.  A great life lesson to “ hang on” despite the dark clouds.  Let’s yearn for the coming of Moshiach.

Have a significant celebration of the krias Yam Suf.
