Vayeshev - Moshiach Unfolds Quickly

you're listening to the weekly partial podcast with Ari goldwag recorded with hm's NeverEnding assistance in Rim Israel 5785 2024 this week's Paras parev we have an amazing story ysep atad and his brothers the dreams the jealousy selling him into slavery going down to Egypt the encounter with Po's wife ending up in jail for 12 years and finally the beginning of next week's paral being taken out of jail because of his ability to interpret dreams to understand dreams to understand the messages that Hashem is sending into the world through those dreams unbelievable Odyssey what I always say is my favorite story in the T and I'd like to focus in on a part of the story which is the dreams of the Sim and the Sim the dreams that Ys interprets and as a result two years later comes out of jail to interpret parro's dream and the reason that I would like to focus on these is because they have to do with our times they have to do with Gula they have to do with Redemption they have to do with mesiah the dreams of the Sim and the Sim as thees explains and as the Zohar explains although of course they were dreams for themselves and yoseph interpreted them for themselves that they had to do with the fact that the s maskim who was sent to jail is going to come back out of jail and become once again the cup bearer of parro the sarim the baker been sent to jail is going to come out of jail three days hence and he's going to be hanged for his crime yes there was a specific meaning for them but the Tyra never says anything extra the Terra doesn't include stories unless they have a lesson beyond the beyond the simple understanding there's also a lesson for us and as the explained here in the med the dreams themselves parts of the dreams were interpreted by Yosef but parts of the dreams were not interpreted by ysf there were details in the dream that meant something and because they weren't interpreted by ysf as the mfor explain that left it for us to understand that there was a deeper meaning not just for them and actually there was a meaning for yose himself it was those were dreams of redemption for the sarkim he was going to be led out of jail he was going to be returned to his rightful place and so there was an implication for ysep as well that he was going to be returned to his rightful place but as we'll see it speaks not only of them but also of us it speaks of the Jewish people our Redemption our returning to our rightful place both in the time s of The Exodus when the Jews would leave Egypt ultimately and also in regards to us when we are ultimately going to leave this very long Exile that we've endured for 2,000 years so let's look together at the Mish and understand a new A New Concept in the story of the dreams that yoseph interpreted and if we look at the dream I'm just going to say it to you outside before we actually read the M inside the dream the SAR maskim describes how there was a geffin there was a Vine and on that vine there were three branches and on the branches first there were flowers and in quick s succession the flowers turned into Buds and then the Buds turned into the these fresh fruits of grapes and then the sarim took the grapes he squeezed The Grapes into a cup and he takes that cup and he puts that cup in the hands of parro and parro drinks from the cup all of these different details of the dream are important not all of them as we said were explained by yose so the medish is going to fill in the gaps of what the implications of the dreams were for us and in so doing we're almost there we're going to read the measures in a moment but in so doing as I'm for explain Yosef interprets the dream of the sarkim of the of the cup bearer of parro in a positive light in a good way he's going to return to his post but he interprets the dream of the sar from the baker in a negative way and so the medish wants to address why is it really we find there's a general principle kazal sages teach us that the interpretation of the dream affects how the dream manifests when you have a true dream a true message of Hashem so it manifests based on how the dream is interpreted why did yose interpret the dream positively for the Sim and negatively for theim why was it indeed that he interpreted this way and that's indeed what happened so the Mish gives us a sense of why says the Mish theim describes how there was a Vine in front of him says this is actually a reference to the Jewish people this Vine that he saw was us why how do we know where do we see that am Isel is called a Vine Shar the says in 80 ver9 and we find it elsewhere as well the Jewish people are referred to as a Vine can still see the remnants of the vine right behind me over here is a vine he said on this Vine there were three branches who are the three branches it's a reference to according to the m it's a reference to Moshe Aon and Miriam who would be the Messiah team who would redeem the Jewish people 210 years hence also mention that Z says that the three represents cohain Ley Isel the three factions of the Jewish people the three elements of the kadha the Holiness of the Jewish people let's focus here we focus on what the Mish says because the Mish focuses and stays focused on the fact that there's reference within the dream of the sarkim to the G to the Redemption of the Jewish people who are the Redeemer players Moshe Aon Miriam as we said before the branches were flowering this indicated the fact that there will be a flowering of the the Redemption of the Jewish people and I will add and this is my own understanding it seems like it was in Rapid sucession it seemed like once it starts to flower it just it just keeps moving flowering budding producing fruits ripening fruits taking down the fruits squeezing the fruits amell's Redemption once it happens it happens quickly moshu comes the times of the Exodus and the times ofi comes within a year it happens it unfolds am Israel goes out they go receive the T they become a nation it's it's an unbelievable unfolding a quick unfolding we can also look in recent history and see the unfolding of the current Gula process the Redemption process where we're Suddenly at seven million suddenly it took 75 years 100 years we Suddenly at 7 million Jews in AR Israel unbelievable unfolding a flowering like it's brought down here in the that speak about the of is is going to be it's going to slowly rise or like the sun like the morning it's going to start off small GNA get bigger and bigger and bigger and all of a sudden it will be bright and light the sun the sun breaks through the Horizon certainly indicative of what we've been seeing over the last 100 years but that's the description that theim gives about what happens in his dream because he's talking about Redemption growing and think about Yosef he's been in jail for 10 years at this point he's going to be in jail for another two years but there's a hint to him personally and to am Israel nationally that when the Redemption comes it comes suddenly it comes in a flowering way it comes in an accelerated way also says the buds came up first it flowers then it buds it's a process and then the Clusters form into grapes and they ripen G thees does say this it's not I didn't make it up the the very Vine that flowered immediately bued Those Grapes that budded they immediately ripened when you get to the point of redemption it's it just happens very quickly the process process unfolds very quickly this nation Falls Kamas Falls that was a little slow Falls that was a little faster Syria Falls lightning speed let's see what happens with Iran because now the M says an amazing thing something very interesting and very deep the Sim in his dream talks about the K the cup of pharaoh the cup of pharaoh it was in his hand he describes and he mentions the cas actually there's four times the word the word cup is mentioned in this par four times we every year on the night of PES drink four cups of wine representing the salvations of am Israel we're going to go through four gas we've gone through four Exiles and we we've been redeemed and will be redeemed altogether four times the four cups that we drink that represent G represent Redemption multiple redemptions were hinted to already in this dream of the sarkim in his personal redemption in yose's redemption in am Israel's Redemption there are four cups what are these cups we also find this is more famous more welln it says in in regards to the Redemption from Egypt says I will take them out I will save them I will redeem them I will take them to be my nation four languages indicate four redemptions indicate four types and levels of redemption correspond to the four cups that we drink now we're going to find out something amazing about cups that have to do with Redemption they have to do with Messiah that have to do with what what happens when Messiah comes he says it the four cups of P correspond to the four times he repeats this idea the four times the word Coast is mentioned in the dream and right after the dream where he goes back indeed and becomes the cup Bearer again Etc as we said re says that there is a corresponding there's a correspondence to four Exiles four kingdoms that we come under their jurisdiction their domain here's an amazing thing we're going to see that the cups the cup of the cup that we take on pesak there's four cups and these four cups have a dual purpose they're cups of poison says and Ley that are given to the nation that had jurisdiction over us the Exile in which we found ourselves that Exile ends where Hashem pours the cup of poison into the mouths the open mouths of the destructive Nations we found ourselves in God gives the idol worshippers to drink hem says sh the god of the people of Israel said to me bring bring the cup of anger to me there's a cup of Wrath The Grapes of Wrath the cups of Wrath are poured upon the Nations when it's time for their destruction and Amy Israel to rise one of the themes that we keep speaking about we spoke about in the B podcast we keep speaking about is that Amy Israel is supposed to lead the world in order for that to happen there has to be a destabilization of the hierarchy of the world of who's in charge the West the powerful West the powerful people of yes the Islamic world World there has to be a shake up a rattling a falling and that's represented by this cup the says elsewhere in the golden cup of Babylonia which is in the hand of Hashem Hashem poured out that cup caused the destruction of B says pours out causes to rain upon them the evil ones corresponding to that is going to give us four cups of Salvation in the future Isel and it iterates you have the four that iterates over history but also within I would say each Gula individually there's also a a more pronged aspect of Salvation which is why we keep we keep doing it we keep talking about it today not just to remind ourselves of what happened in Egypt not just then it's going to happen again we're going to have all four aspects in the final Gula it's going to unfold in a similar way it's unfolded and is unfolding in a corresponding way and what's it about think about it it's about the s maskim in a certain way represents us it sounds hard to understand but take it please hear it the sasham is being returned to serve parro parro is the most powerful man in the world at that time he's the one who represents the kingship of Hashem in the world it sounds it sounds hard to understand what parro yes parro am is coming under his Dominion hasem manifests through him to go through that challenge and difficulty in order to become the nation they are to become whoever is the leader of the world Hashem manifests through that person the hearts of the great ones are in God's hands the sarkim is now returning to his post to be to serve parro let's look at it from our perspective what's our job our job is to return to our post to be the king of the world to to lead the world in service of Hashem we need to be the proper cup bearer of Hashem of God if we are properly serving him which is what Gula is all about we go back into a state of subservience and representation of Hashem representing him in this world serving him being a conduit for His blessings for his will into the world how appropriate is it that this dream which is the sarkin going back to his post to serve parro corresponds to us going back to to serving Hashem properly and thereby bringing the K the overflowing blessings into the world but for the Nations who are serving Hashem Who are the Idol worshippers who are not serving Hashem properly so this cup which represents the overflowing cup of Hashem it's a cup of Destruction for them but that same cup is a cup of salvation for us it's the yesu is the is my portion he is my cup says 16:5 yesu I will raise up the cup of salvation for am Israel the cup which destroys them serves to raise us up unbelievable thing look at what's going on in the world right now watch as the Nations the the Iranians and the and the circle of fire that they developed as it falls and is destroyed Isel is lifted up think about it in terms of as the as the 10 plagues destroy MIM Isel is lifted up Isel stands up Israel leaves goes out be r with a great outstretched [Music] hand says pretty clearly and explicitly sit at the table in front of me Hashem against my enemies destroy my enemies and let my cup overflow at the same time as my cup is overflowing my enemies are being destroyed with the same Cup points out the measures yesu doesn't say the cup of Salvation singular it says the cup of salvations plural which I would say based on what we've been saying it's the same cup manifesting four times manifesting in four ways in each individual time the me says m one for the days of mhia one for the days of it's not clear exactly what these two days are that I mean as far as I know Mia msia comes after the war of G could be there's different levels different points there's m timei d time it could be referring to that or it could be referring to the fact that for good that there's a the cup is doubled it's a cup of double salvations because there's a doubling there's a a destruction of G which is our Salvation And there's a Salvation of us as we rise so the measure says that's the understanding that's what Yosef heard in the dream when he hears the dream of the sash he hears this amazing news for there's going to be G there's going to be Redemption there's going to be redeemers there's going to be a mosha Aon and and Miriam there's going to be in the future a Mor and an I'm adding that it's not what it says in the there's going to be a mhia there's Beav this is going to be the the they're going to sprout out there's going to be branches Amel is going to have their ultimate Rising so when he hears this good news this amazing dream the s is telling him it's news for him he's going to be saved when you give me this good news I hear I hear something positive in your dream I'm G to give you good news as well I'm going to tell you I'm going to interpret your dream positively this dream also means you're going to be redeemed but what about the SAR what about the the the baker what about his dream the starts off he says even I was in my dream he starts to tell a dream which Joseph ends up saying means you're going to die AF even the word AF besides for meaning even it also can mean anger and there are four people who when they said they started talking they started with the word AF which means anger and they ended up experiencing D experiencing hashem's wrath as it were he speaks about three wicker baskets one on top of the other that were on top of his head these represent the three the first three Exiles of am Isel whereas the Sim spoke about a positive thing he spoke about's G Redemption theim the baker spoke about about the actual Exiles themselves and he speaks about the the the topmost basket which had in it all the the breads of parro and the birds were coming and eating out of that basket the uppermost one represents the highest the most powerful one of the Exiles which is the Exile we're still now it's all inclusive it's it's above everything the the adim the West think about most clearly the British Commonwealth the Sun never sat set on the British Empire it had people giving them taxes from the entire world but even today who controls the economy who's has the most powerful economy in the world who's giving the who's getting the most money from everyone it's America so that was represented these four malus the birds were eating on through down what does this mean it's a reference to the fact that am Isel we have we have we have we have people who are uppermost most represent the Jewish people doing the will of hem but we have people the regular the the regular people also the the the Salah eats through all of us theim the West they take us they take all they take all of our power away from us they take all of our money from US taxes Etc so the spoke negatively about the difficulties of that's what y hears he said you gave me bad news about you gave me negative predictions about what's going to be for am Isel the Exiles are going to have to endure the challenges the difficulties the oppression I'm G to also have to tell you bad news in three days hence you're going to be taken out of here and you're going to hang from the Gallows and the birds are going to Peck away at your flesh so yoseph heard Within These Dreams and we hear with the Within These Dreams something that doesn't just have to do with th those moments but also has to do with us also has to do with Redemption also has to do with the challenges and the difficulties but ultimately has to do with our Redemption so what do we take out of this of course we take some in interesting insights into what it looks like mhia it's all about this lifting up of am is the fall of the nations of the world but besides for that I would say that what I take out of this is that the things that we see we've heard this story many times we've heard about these dreams so many times we know what what the dreams meant they meant this guy's going to come out of jail this guy's gonna this guy's going to end up dying it also means that yose ultimately is going to come out of jail he's going to end up interpreting parro's dreams that's the that's what we all have learned that's what we all thought about but did we ever think that there's more to these dreams that everything in the t is written for us that there's personal Redemption written in here for each and every one of us there's a message in the tah and really Hashem is sending messages just as he sent a message for yose to understand that he's going to be redeemed he's going to follow in the path of the sarim that's why he immediately says before he even gets to the baker's dream he says you got to save me when you get out this is a dream for me too we also have these messages Hashem is sending us all the time they surround usem is talking to us we can see even in world events if there's an unbelievable Redemption that's coming out of such a terrible difficulty for am Isel but something is brewing something is rising something is something huge is happened happening bdash is not far off what does it mean for me in my personal challenges in my personal difficulties how is that a message for me that hey things are going to turn around for me too just like things turn around for Amel it manifests for each and every one of us individually as well and what does that mean what is what are the what are the ramifications of this for me hey maybe it's time for me to get back to Earth Isel maybe it's time for me to believe that the Redemption really is close and I want to be there to see it I want to be in Earth Isel to be a part of it I want to bless you I ask you to bless me Shem should help us to see the redemptions are on the way nationally individually Shem should help us to prepare properly for themm should help us to believe that that is coming and have that b have that amuna have that faith and be strengthened thank you so much for listening have a wonderful shabas this podcast was made possible through the gracious donations of
