Rabbi Moshe Weinberger |
| In this shiur (class), Rabbi Moshe Weinberger begins learning the essay of the Alter Rebbe, Reb Shneur Zalman of Liadi, which deals with Rosh HaShana, as discussed in the Sefer Chassidus M'vueres. The themes of Malchiyot, Shofrot, and Zichronot are analyzed. The shiur discusses the nekuda pnimis, the inner essence, of Rosh Hashana, which is revealing our internal recognition of Hashem as King. The essay also discusses the Jewish People as a unified entity who can rise above their normally lowly level to reach the level of standing Lifnei Hashem, 'Before G-d'. |

Rabbi Michael Taubes |
| In the first class of the series, Rabbi Taubes discusses the obligation for prayer. He points out that Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur as times of great need, and are therefore specifically designated as days of prayer. However, these days are also deemed as days of joy. Rabbi Taubes discusses the conflicting and complementary themes of Rosh Hashana. These themes can be learned from delving into the meaning of the names of Rosh Hashana. Rabbi Taubes then goes into the actual davening of Rosh Hashana, and explains the changes at the beginning of the Rosh Hashana davening. The class explicates the addition of 'zachrenu l'chaim' to the first bracha of Shemoneh Esrei and the expanded bracha of Hamelech Hakadosh. Rabbi Taubes continues the shiur with a discussion of the middle bracha of the Rosh Hashana davening, which summarizes the theme of the day. The shiur ends with the explanation of Rav Soloveitchik for why Psalm 24 is recited after the Rosh Hashana Amida, and the message of Psalm 27, 'l'Dovid Hashem Ori', which is recited from Rosh Chodesh Elul through Yom Kippur. |
