Here's a powerful idea for us to know in reference to our Pesach holiday that's in front of us. And we know that when we start the Hag Pesach, we discuss the number four. Four envelops the whole entire Haggadah. Obviously, we have the four Lashonus of Geulah Vehotzeisi, Vehitzalti, Vegalti, Velakahti. We obviously have the four sons, the Chacham, the Rasha, the Tam, and the She'eino Yodea' Lishol. We know that we have the four cups of wine that we drink during this time period. And we of course we have the four questions of the Mah Nishtanah. We have the four questions of the Mah Nishtanah that we ask that we ask. In addition, we also say Arami Oved Avi. When we say Arami Oved Avi in the thing, there's also four Pasuk Vayotzieinu, Vayavi'einu, Venitzcheinu, Veyir'einu. We speak about the four. But you have to know four, the idea behind it is yes, it's four corners of the globe and everything is still complete encompassing. But the four is really five. Every one of the examples I just gave you really has a fifth number behind it representing the future, representing the Geulah, the future that we will have. In the Mah Nishtanah, the Mishna brings down in Sukkim on Kuf Zayin that there's really a fifth question of Mah Nishtanah. And that has to do with the Korban Pesach that why now do we eat the Tali as opposed to Bederech Klal we eat Mevushal and Tali and now we're eating the Tali. Also the Arami Oved Avi, there's another Pasuk Vayavi'einu Lamakom Hazeh. In the future we're going to be brought to Mitzrayim. Of course by the four Lashonus of Geulah, we have a fifth Lashon which is Veheve'eitem that one day Bezras Hashem we will have the time of Mashiach. Of course in the four cups, everybody knows we've got that fifth cup which is for the Kos Shel Eliyahu. All of these things always represent the fifth. Are there four sons or five? So there is a important Yesod which is brought down. It's usually said over Bishaim the Lubavitcher Rebbe. There's different Bishaim different is that there is a fifth son. The Rasha at least comes to the table, but the fifth son is the one that doesn't even know to make it to the table. He doesn't even know there is something talking about Pesach. And that's all part of the fifth words, the fifth all this fifth that we're saying. Cuz Le'atid Lavoh, in the future, the number five will be existent and that we will have a fifth child there. The one that doesn't even realize he's Jewish, he doesn't even know what a Seder is about, he's going to also Bezras Hashem be coming to the Seder. So yes, the the ideas of the Seder has to do with the Yetzias Mitzrayim, but at the same time we represent the number five which encompasses the fact that it also has to do with Bezras Hashem there will be a Geulah Le'atid Lavoh. And let me end with an importance in the number five. Because the number five is something that takes the four corners of the world and encompasses all together to make a Kli, a vessel to receive all this Shefa from upstairs is always represented by the number five or what we call the letter Hey. The letter Hey. Sarai was not able to have children. Sarai, the the wife of Avraham Avinu, she wasn't able to have children. Avraham was not able to have children. You know what happened? Hashem added a Hey to Avraham and added a Hey to Sarai to become Sarah. And lo and behold, she had a beautiful child named Yitzchak because of the Koach of the Hey. And the truth is the Midrash says all the all the mothers because of the power of the Hey, they were able to have a child. Leah had many children cuz she already owned a Hey. Rivka has a Hey at the end of her name. And as a result of that, she was not able to have a Hey. Rachel didn't have a Hey. Rachel doesn't have a Hey in her name. But that Hey was added it was added when she gave Bilhah who has two Heys, one for herself and one for Rachel also. So she was able to go ahead and have children as a result of giving over the Hey. Hey, the idea of the Hey is always that as well. It's represented as a Kli. Hey is always the female at the end, a vessel, one that is able to receive. As we know, the woman is the power to be able to receive and build on something. When she receives it, she's able she's the Koach of Binah to be able to build and expand from it. You turn a Na'ar to a Na'arah. A male Na'ar turns into a Na'arah. An Ish to an Ishah. When you add the Hey at the end, it adds to it the female counterpart which Knesset Yisrael we are represented as the Hey, as this Hey is the five which receives the Shefa, the Ohr that comes from upstairs, which is what we're doing on Seder night or what we're doing all of Pesach for that matter. We're going ahead and getting the number four which is really five like we've stated. And by having the number five, we're able to be able to receive that much more. It's no coincidence at the end of your hands and at the end of your legs, hopefully you have all your toes and fingers, but they're five of them because that is the place where you receive Shefa Netilas Yadayim. You pick them up to Shamayim, all five fingers, and you pick them up open-handed in order to receive the Shefa. Because the number five is what represents the power of receiving, of being able to be Mekabel, to become that. And that's why we have yes, five cups, five Mah Nishtanahs. That's why we have the five things of of Anitzach by Arami Oved Avi, the five children that we do. And through that Zchus, Bezras Hashem we'll be able to reach the five of being able to get to the Geulah Bimheira Veyameinu. Because those are the five letters. We know there are 22 letters in the alphabet, but there's a famous five letters which change when they're put at the end of a word. They're known as the Mantzepach, the Mem, Nun, Tzadi, Pay, and Chaf. There's also Chaf Sofis, an end Mem, an end Nun, an end Mem. Those letters which change at the end, those are put at the end of the word and there are five of them to represent that in the end of days, at the Sof Hayamim, Bezras Hashem Hakadosh Baruch Hu is going to bring the Mashiach and that is really the representation of Kesheim Sheyatz'u B'Nissan, just like we came out of Nissan, so too Bezras Hashem will be Nigal in this incredible month.
