Parshat Chayey Sarah - The Crown of the Husband

 BH


The Journey to the Keter: Growth Through Challenges

Rebbe Nachman teaches in Likutey Moharan lesson 24 that when one performs a mitzvah with joy, it propels them upward toward the Keter. The Keter, often described as the spiritual gateway to Hashem’s infinite light, represents the pinnacle of spiritual achievement. However, direct access to the infinite light is impossible for finite beings. If one were to fully connect, they would cease to exist as a distinct entity and merge entirely with the light, which is not Hashem’s intention.

Hashem desires that human beings, while remaining finite, experience His presence and clarity. The Keter achieves this by pushing the individual back. This dynamic, known in Kabbalistic terms as Matei V’lo Matei—“reaching and not reaching”—allows a person to gain brief exposure to Hashem’s infinite light before being returned to their finite state. During this “bounce back,” the individual creates vessels capable of containing the divine light in a manageable way.

The result is clarity, providing solutions to life’s challenges and frustrations. Rebbe Nachman emphasizes that the trials of life are continuous, as they are the stepping stones for growth. These tests are not meant to break a person but to propel them closer to Hashem, driving them to perform mitzvot with joy and engage with the Keter.

The Role of Simcha in Accessing the Infinite Light

The key to this process is simcha – joy. Joy in mitzvot enables the individual to approach the Keter, endure its pushback, and emerge with the clarity and spiritual growth needed to navigate life’s tests.

The Keter and Marriage: Insights from Reb Noson

Reb Noson, in Likutey Halakhot (Laws of Marriage, Discourse 4), extends the concept of the Keter to the dynamic between husband and wife. He highlights the verse from Mishlei (Proverbs), “Eshet Chayil Ateret Ba’alah”—“A woman of valor is the crown of her husband.” This indicates that the wife, in her role within the marital relationship, embodies the concept of the Keter.

In marriage, the husband is traditionally the giver, obligated through the Ketubah to provide for his wife’s needs. The wife, as the recipient, might seem to hold a subordinate position. However, the concept of the Keter flips this perspective.

The Keter, as the crown, sits above the head, symbolizing its elevated status. Similarly, the wife’s role as the crown of her husband signifies her ability to elevate him, guiding him toward greater spiritual and personal growth.

The Wife as the Keter: A Balancing Force

The Keter represents restraint and balance. It provides a pushback that ensures aspirations and ambitions are tempered to avoid overexertion or burnout. Similarly, the wife plays a critical role in marriage by acting as a spiritual “brake,” guiding the husband and family toward sustainability and growth. Her connection to the Keter allows her to see when ambitions might exceed practical limits, and her resistance, though challenging, is ultimately for the husband’s benefit.

This dynamic reflects a deeper truth: while the wife is the receiver in marriage, her rootedness in the Keter elevates her to a position of profound influence. Setbacks and obstacles originating from the wife are opportunities for the husband to bend, like the curved shape of the Hebrew letter kaf, symbolizing humility. By accepting this pushback, the husband gains clarity and builds vessels to receive Hashem’s infinite light.

Sarah Imeinu: The Eshet Chayil of Avraham Avinu

The Midrash on Parshat Chayei Sarah emphasizes Sarah’s role as the crown of Avraham Avinu, explicitly connecting her to the verse Eshet Chayil Ateret Ba’alah. Sarah’s passing marked a tremendous loss for Avraham, as the Torah hints in the word v’livkotah (“and he cried over her”), where the kaf in the word is written smaller than usual in the Torah.

Rebbe Nachman, citing the Zohar, explains that the letter kaf represents the Keter. Avraham’s mourning reflects the profound recognition of Sarah’s spiritual stature and her role in guiding their family through challenges.

Sarah’s Divine Wisdom: A Higher Level of Ruach HaKodesh

In last week’s Parshah, Sarah’s divine inspiration surpassed Avraham’s in a critical moment. When Sarah insisted that Hagar and Yishmael be sent away due to Yishmael’s negative influence, Avraham was deeply pained. However, Hashem instructed him, Sh’ma b’kolah—“Listen to her voice”—affirming that Sarah’s Ruach HaKodesh was superior in this matter.

Sarah’s higher spiritual level in certain domains highlights the dynamic of the Keter. Her suggestion to expel Hagar and Yishmael, like the pushback of the Keter, was necessary to ensure the family’s spiritual and practical well-being.

Sarah as the Keter: The Balance of Advancement and Restraint

Reb Noson expands on the idea that Sarah Imeinu embodied the concept of the Keter, the spiritual crown, as reflected in the verse Eshet Chayil Ateret Ba’alah—“A woman of valor is the crown of her husband.” While Avraham Avinu was a towering spiritual figure, Sarah’s role as the Keter meant she often acted as a counterbalance, providing restraint to ensure proper spiritual growth.

Yitzchak’s transition into the role of Keter reveals the balance between joy, restraint, and spiritual growth. Sarah’s life and her passing emphasize the importance of the Keter’s role in guiding and balancing spiritual aspirations.

Sarah’s Dedication to Avraham

Sarah’s immense dedication to Avraham is reflected in her willingness to endure disgrace for his honor. The Gemara notes that even after her passing, she would have preferred to delay her burial so that Avraham could participate in the eulogy and funeral rites. This shows her respect and commitment to her husband’s role, even beyond her lifetime.

The Small Kaf and the Passing of Sarah

The Torah hints at Sarah’s role as the Keter in the word v’livkotah—“and he cried over her” (Genesis 23:2)—where the letter kaf is written smaller than usual. The kaf symbolizes the Keter, representing humility and the ability to receive setbacks as part of spiritual growth. The diminished kaf indicates the profound yet tempered grief Avraham felt at Sarah’s passing, as well as the unique balance Sarah provided in their relationship.

Rashi explains that Sarah’s death was connected to the Akedat Yitzchak (the Binding of Isaac). Upon hearing conflicting reports that her son was both about to be sacrificed and then saved, the emotional strain caused her soul to depart. The Ba’al HaTurim adds that Avraham’s crying was limited because her passing was, in a sense, self-induced—a result of her own overwhelming response to the news.

Sarah’s Role in Mateh V’lo Mateh

The concept of mateh v’lo mateh—“reaching and not reaching”—is a key characteristic of the Keter. It represents the balance of allowing spiritual advancement while providing necessary restraint. Sarah exemplified this dynamic throughout her life, guiding Avraham with wisdom and providing the spiritual brakes to prevent him from overextending himself. Her role ensured that Avraham’s spiritual growth was balanced, sustainable, and aligned with Hashem’s will.

The Keter is the goal of marriage, as hard as it is to get there

Yitzchak and the Legacy of Sarah’s Role as the Keter

In this conclusion, we see how Sarah’s unique role as the Keter transitions to Yitzchak after the Akedah (Binding of Isaac). Her passing marks the moment when Yitzchak takes on the balance of running toward and being restrained from fully reaching the infinite light.

Yitzchak’s Role as the Keter

  • Ratzon and Simcha: Sarah’s passing is linked to the Akedah. Yitzchak’s readiness to be sacrificed demonstrated his ratzon (desire) and simcha (joy) in fulfilling Hashem’s will, aligning with the qualities of the Ketermateh v’lo mateh (reaching and not reaching). This transition reassured Sarah, leading to her peaceful passing.
  • Yitzchak’s Feminine Soul: The Zohar explains that Yitzchak had a feminine soul, connecting him to the concept of Eshet Chayil Ateret Ba’ala—“A woman of valor is the crown of her husband.” This further highlights his role as a spiritual crown.

Sarah’s Legacy and the Role of the Keter

  • Sarah’s Influence on Avraham: As the Keter, Sarah provided Avraham with spiritual restraint and clarity, preventing overreach. Her passing symbolized the completion of her role, paving the way for Yitzchak to continue her legacy.
  • Lessons in Shalom Bayit: The Parshah teaches the importance of recognizing a wife’s role as a spiritual “antenna” and crown within the marriage. A husband must respect and understand the moments when his wife’s perspective represents divine restraint and guidance.

Final Reflections

Yitzchak’s transition into the role of Keter reveals the balance between joy, restraint, and spiritual growth. His ratzon to connect to the infinite light mirrors the mateh v’lo mateh process, ensuring continued growth without spiritual disintegration. Sarah’s life and her passing emphasize the importance of the Keter’s role in guiding and balancing spiritual aspirations.

Shabbat Shalom, and may we draw strength from Sarah and Yitzchak’s examples to build clarity and harmony in our own lives and homes.

Parshat VaYeira - Lot's Matzah and Salt

 BH


Despite being depicted as a flawed character, Lot demonstrates a remarkable dedication to welcoming guests, offering the angels matzot and directing his wife to bring salt, even at the risk of confrontation. This raises questions about why Lot would go to such lengths and observe customs like serving matzot during a time that prefigures Pesach.

These insights into Lot’s actions give us a glimpse of the redeeming qualities that led to his salvation, ultimately allowing him to become the forefather of nations such as Amon and Moav, from whom significant figures like Ruth the convert and Naamah HaAmoni, one of King Solomon’s wives, would emerge. Before delving deeper into Lot’s actions, let’s revisit Rebbe Nachman’s teachings in Likutey Moharan, Lesson 24, which offer a powerful framework for understanding mitzvot out of joy, and Divine perception.

Rebbe Nachman explains that performing mitzvot with joy is essential for spiritual growth and advancement. The joy a person brings to a mitzvah is often reflected in the lengths they’re willing to go to fulfill it, whether through self-sacrifice or zealous dedication. Rebbe Nachman even advised dedicating oneself to one mitzvah in particular—observing it with consistency and care, not by taking on extreme practices, but by engaging in a way that’s meaningful and unwavering.

When a mitzvah is performed with joy, it gains momentum, setting off a ripple effect that impacts not just the individual, but also their surroundings and the world. This momentum brings a person and the mitzvah to a point of spiritual ascent, reaching the level known as the Keter, or “crown,” which separates humanity from the Infinite Light. The Keter serves as a boundary, pushing back anyone who reaches it, preventing complete merging with the Divine. Yet, in this “pushback”—which appears as life’s setbacks, delays, suffering and obstacles—one can glimpse the Infinite Light, provided they approach these challenges with faith and joy.

The Torah presents Lot as a deeply flawed individual, showing a clear shift away from Avraham’s righteous path. As Rashi explains in last week’s Parshah, Lot chose to distance himself from Avraham and his G-d, seeking instead a life of physical comfort and pleasure. Sodom and Amora offered him precisely that: a place rich with worldly allure, like a “Las Vegas” of ancient times—a center for indulgence and earthly delights. Lot was drawn to Sodom not only for its beauty and material wealth but also for its reputation as a hub of immorality and indulgence, a place where anything goes.

Lot’s story teaches that even small acts can contribute to the larger Divine plan. We can learn from him to embrace simcha in our mitzvah observance, and then we may merit to reveal hidden sparks and clarity within ourselves and contribute to bringing about the final redemption!

However, Lot’s story isn’t that simple. Despite his immersion in Sodom’s culture, he retained certain values he had learned in Avraham’s household—specifically, the mitzvah of hakhnasat orchim (hospitality). Even though it was illegal in Sodom to host guests, Lot couldn’t entirely abandon this mitzvah. He took risks to welcome the angels disguised as travelers, a trait he had learned from Avraham. In fact, Lot went out of his way to make matzot for them, which Rashi points out was due to it being Pesach, even though the actual Exodus was yet to happen. He insisted on this specific food and even fought with his wife to prepare it, which reveals the hidden complexity within Lot: his struggle to retain a spark of goodness amidst an environment of intense corruption.

Lot’s wife, on the other hand, rejected his commitment to this mitzvah. She opposed his attempt to show hospitality, scoffing at his request for salt and, as the Midrash explains, deliberately exposed Lot’s actions to the townspeople by asking neighbors for salt. This betrayal ultimately led to her punishment, as she was turned into a pillar of salt—a fitting consequence for someone who used salt to endanger her own family. Here, we see a stark contrast between Lot’s faint connection to Avraham’s values and his wife’s complete rejection of them.

Why did Lot, someone so steeped in Sodom’s values, go to such lengths to honor this mitzvah? The matzot and salt he prepared reflect deeper spiritual concepts. Matzah symbolizes pure intellect, a mind untainted by doubts and confusions, untouched by the “leavening” of negative influences. Salt, often associated with joy and enhancing food, symbolizes the added dimension of doing a mitzvah with simcha, amplifying its power and effect. Lot may not have been able to fully embrace Avraham’s path, but his actions reveal a residual desire to connect to holiness and preserve some connection to his past. These hints of virtue and remnants of Avraham’s teachings in Lot eventually bore fruit through his descendants—Ruth and Naamah—who played pivotal roles in the Davidic lineage and the ultimate rectification of the world.

Lot’s preparation of matzah points to the intellect’s purest form—an unsoured, unfermented clarity that stands in contrast to chametz, or leaven. Chametz, representing a soured and convoluted mindset, signifies the times when the mind becomes clouded by doubts and distortions. By preparing matzah, Lot connected to this higher state of intellect, which is fully aligned with emunah (faith) and devoid of room for doubt. In this way, matzah embodies the untainted perception of Hashem’s presence and the clarity associated with faith. It reflects a direct, unsullied connection to the Divine, and it connects to the essence of Pesach—where faith and simple trust in Hashem override logic and reasoning. Lot’s preparation of matzah signifies his inner recognition of these truths, even if he struggled to live by them consistently.

Salt, on the other hand, aligns with joy, or simcha, in Rebbe Nachman’s teachings. Just as salt enhances and brings life to food, simcha brings zest, vibrancy, and meaning to mitzvah observance. Salt in the Beit Hamikdash was required for every offering, symbolizing that every act of service to Hashem should ideally be infused with joy, as joy enhances the sanctity and depth of every mitzvah. Lot’s insistence on providing salt, even at the risk of his wife’s displeasure and ultimately her betrayal, highlighted his commitment to this concept of joyful mitzvah performance. Although Lot struggled with his environment and his personal flaws, these actions indicated his deeper desire for spiritual clarity and connection.

The Torah points out these seemingly small acts of Lot—providing matzah and salt—to emphasize the hidden potential for righteousness within him. Even as Lot struggled to fully embody these ideals, his efforts reflect his underlying connection to the values of faith and joy in mitzvot. This inner goodness and awareness were reflected in his descendants, Ruth and Naamah, who would both marry into the Davidic line. Ruth, the ancestor of King David, and Naamah, the wife of King Solomon, played crucial roles in the lineage leading to Mashiach. Lot’s hidden spark of goodness, activated in part by these small but significant acts, set the stage for the Davidic dynasty.

Lot’s story teaches that even small acts, fueled by hidden goodness and executed with joy and faith, can contribute to the larger Divine plan. We can learn from his self-sacrifice to embrace simcha in our mitzvah observance, aiming toward clarity and faith that connect us to Hashem. Through this, may we merit to reveal hidden sparks within ourselves and contribute to bringing about the final redemption.

Parshat Lekh Lekha - The Walk of Joy

 BH


Rebbe Nachman once said that every lesson he taught could be found across the entire Torah, Tanakh, Talmud, Zohar, and beyond, revealing the incredible depth and interconnectedness of his teachings. In this spirit, we explore how Likutey Moharan lesson 24 connects with this week’s Parshah.

Rebbe Nachman teaches that doing mitzvot with simcha (joy) is incredibly powerful. While mitzvot can be done in a lethargic or even sad state, performing them with joy elevates them to a whole new level. This concept is echoed in verses like, “Serve Hashem with joy,” showing that simcha itself is a mitzvah. Joyful mitzvot ripple outwards, like molecules affecting other molecules around them. One mitzvah done with joy has effects that extend beyond the individual to impact the world around us and even the dimensions of creation. The joyful mitzvah “reproduces,” creating a product and aftereffect that influences others and brings blessings.

Rebbe Nachman explains that one of the primary blessings a joyful mitzvah brings is the blessing of knowledge. Knowledge of Hashem is the greatest blessing a person can receive, as demonstrated by King Solomon. When Hashem offered him anything he wished—whether wealth, honor, or power—King Solomon asked for knowledge of Hashem. Hashem was so pleased with this choice that He granted Solomon not only wisdom but also wealth and honor. This example shows that true fulfillment comes from knowing Hashem, as the Talmud states, “If you have acquired knowledge, what are you lacking? If you lack knowledge, what have you acquired?” The awareness of Hashem brings a deep sense of completeness.

However, knowledge alone isn’t enough; Rebbe Nachman teaches that it must be paired with emunah (faith). As we gain knowledge, the purpose is to deepen our realization of how much we still don’t know, which strengthens our emunah. This combination of knowledge and faith allows us to access the Keter, the highest connection point to Hashem. The Keter acts as a gateway to Hashem’s Infinite Light, providing clarity and insight. This Infinite Light guides us through life’s challenges, helping us fulfill our purpose and Tikkun (rectification) across lifetimes. By coupling knowledge with emunah, we receive this light, which serves as our compass in navigating life and choosing the right path.

Mitzvot done with joy propel us to the highest levels of divine connection. Just as Avram undertakes his journey, leaving behind depression, melancholy, and worry, we too must overcome these barriers to reach Hashem’s Infinite Light!

Rebbe Nachman teaches that the transformative power of joy in performing mitzvot starts with being a Jew who embraces simcha. This joy then infuses mitzvot, creating a “domino effect” of momentum that eventually reaches the Keter, the gateway to Hashem’s Infinite Light. This concept is reflected in the opening of Parshat Lekh Lekha. Hashem commands Avraham, “Lekh Lekha,” literally meaning “go to yourself,” indicating that Avraham’s journey is both physical and spiritual. Hashem’s directive carries a deeper message: performing mitzvot with joy creates momentum that moves a person toward the Keter. In Hebrew numerology, “Lecha” has a value of 50, symbolizing the 50th gate of Keter.

Hashem is telling Avraham that to reach Keter through the joy of mitzvot, he must actively leave negative influences behind, moving toward simcha in the Holy Land, a place of spiritual freedom and blessing. This journey out of heaviness and negativity toward joy is the path that opens a person to divine blessings and the Keter, the ultimate source of clarity and connection with Hashem.

Rebbe Nachman explains that Hashem’s command to Avraham, “Lekh Lekha,” carries a powerful lesson in overcoming the barriers of sadness, melancholy, and worry, each of which stems from different internal and external sources. These barriers prevent a person from reaching the Keter, the 50th gate that connects to Hashem’s Infinite Light. The phrases “me’artzecha, u’me’moladetecha, u’me’beit avicha” (from your land, birthplace, and father’s house) signify three types of obstacles Avraham is commanded to leave behind.

  1. Artzecha (your land): Referring to “land,” artzecha also relates to artziut, the weight of physicality. Sadness and heaviness in life often feel as though they’re simply rooted in existence itself, dragging a person down with no clear reason. Depression and lethargy from this type of heaviness hinder a person’s joy in mitzvah performance, limiting their ability to reach higher spiritual levels.
  2. Moladetecha (your birthplace): This term suggests both birthplace and conception, relating to the human drive for physical pleasures, especially sexuality. People often seek out such pleasures in an attempt to fill an inner emptiness, but this never truly satisfies and often intensifies the feeling of void. Rebbe Nachman associates this yearning with melancholy and the “black bile”—a form of internal emptiness that makes one believe something external will complete them. Hashem tells Avraham to leave behind this feeling of lack, which is tied to desires that feed on and deepen a sense of emptiness.
  3. Beit Avicha (your father’s house): This phrase points to familial responsibilities and the anxieties that come with maintaining a household. Here, the concern isn’t about feeling incomplete but rather being overwhelmed by practical worries, like providing for family needs and making ends meet. These anxieties weigh heavily on a person and lead to sadness and a sense of defeat.

Depression, Melancholy, Worry – the 3 paths of sadness we must avoid

Hashem’s instruction to leave these three areas—artzecha, moladetecha, and beit avicha—means Avraham must separate from the negative influences of sadness, melancholy, and worry to reach the level of joy needed for connection to Hashem. By leaving behind these sources of sadness, he is journeying towards the Keter.

As Avraham embarks on this journey, Hashem reassures him with blessings. Rashi explains that traveling typically diminishes one’s productivity in three areas: family growth, financial security, and honor. But Hashem promises Avraham special blessings in each of these: offspring, wealth, and a respected name. This divine assurance allows Avraham to continue without fear of loss, knowing that Hashem will protect him in these vital aspects of life.

Avraham’s journey of “Lekh Lekha” thus becomes a model for embracing joy in mitzvah performance, shedding the weights of sadness and worry, and trusting in Hashem’s blessings to maintain his livelihood, family, and honor along the way.

In the journey of mitzvot done with joy, Rebbe Nachman teaches that each act carries the potential to create reverberations, influencing not only the individual but the world around them. As the mitzvah gains momentum, it begins to produce and expand, impacting other people, other mitzvot, and even the broader world. This is the idea behind Hashem’s first blessing to Avram in Lekh Lekha: “I will make you a great nation.” When one serves Hashem with joy, this joy spreads, becoming fruitful and multiplying, inspiring others to serve Hashem with joy as well. The first stage of the blessing is this increase of positive influence, just as having children extends one’s influence to future generations.

The second blessing Hashem gives to Avram, v’avarechecha (“I will bless you”), speaks to the blessing of intellect, which is the highest form of blessing. For tzaddikim, even material wealth is sanctified, as it becomes a vessel to understand and connect to Hashem. Rebbe Nachman explains that certain levels of divine understanding and clarity are only accessible through wealth because wealth itself connects to high spiritual sources. By granting Avram material blessings alongside the blessing of knowledge, Hashem ensures that every aspect of Avram’s life, even the physical, serves as a gateway to perceive Hashem. This makes wealth for tzaddikim an instrument of birkat ha’sechel, the blessing of intellect.

The third aspect of the blessing, agadela shemekha (“I will make your name great”), speaks to the honor, or kavod, of Hashem’s name. Name, honor, and emunah (faith) are deeply interconnected. Just as Hashem’s honor is cloaked in the Ananei Kavod (Clouds of Glory), one’s name is a garment, revealing but also concealing what lies within. Honor represents a person’s essence wrapped in an external form that inspires faith in what lies beyond the surface. This is also why emunah is tied to Hashem’s name; one trusts in the hidden divinity beyond the veil. The blessing of a “great name” therefore represents Avram’s role in embodying and inspiring faith in Hashem.

The final stage, v’h’ye bracha (“you will be a blessing”), hints at a deeper transformation. At this point, Avram has yet to receive the hey in his name, which represents the five voices of joy associated with true simcha (joy). Once he becomes Avraham, the hey becomes part of him, signifying the internalization of these levels of joy. This hey echoes the laughter in human speech, the “ha ha” sound, which symbolizes genuine joy. When one overcomes the obstacles of sadness, worry, and melancholy, they enter a state where simcha becomes intrinsic, transforming them into a blessing that radiates outward to others.

In Lekh Lekha, we see a profound connection to Lesson 24, which teaches that mitzvot done with joy propel us to the highest levels of divine connection. Just as Avram undertakes his journey, leaving behind sadness, worry, and depression, we, too, must overcome these barriers to reach the Keter, the 50th gate, the threshold of Hashem’s Infinite Light. May we all have a true Lekh Lekha, reaching the highest level of joy and connection with Hashem, and may Rebbe Nachman’s teachings bring this light into every aspect of our lives.

Parshat Noach - The Joy of the Dove

 BH


Noach spends 150 days on the ark, followed by an additional 40 days as he waits for the floodwaters to recede. In Chapter 8, verse 7, after opening the window of the ark, Noach sends out the raven (orev) to check the situation outside. The raven goes out but keeps circling and returning to the ark, reluctant to fulfill its mission. The Midrash and Gemara shed light on this strange behavior. The raven accuses Noach of sending him out needlessly, but Noach reasons thata he is useless anyways, as he is not a kosher animal, not fit for sacrifices, nor would he be used for food. Suspicious, the raven even implies that Noach intends to take his mate, despite the clear command from Hashem that no one on the ark—human or animal—was allowed to engage in mating due to the seriousness of the flood and the intense judgments (dinim) affecting the world. This restriction is connected to the principle that marital relations should be done in simcha, in a joyful context. Since this was a time of dinim-harsh judgement, joy was absent, making mating inappropriate for both humans and animals.

The raven, however, ignored this restriction and was one of three beings that disobeyed Hashem’s command. The other two were Cham, Noach’s son, who had relations with his wife, and the dog, who also violated the rule. Noach calls the raven a rasha (wicked one) for its failure to trust him and obey Hashem’s directive. This accusation relates to the raven’s known trait of cruelty. Rashi, drawing from the Gemara, explains that mother ravens abandon their young, mistaking them for another species because of their lighter color. Hashem miraculously provides worms in the chicks’ excrement to feed them. In a way, the raven’s cruel nature, combined with its reluctance to carry out Noach’s mission, highlights its character as self-centered and resistant.

Rashi also points out a subtle hint in the verse that connects this incident to Eliyahu HaTishbi (Elijah the Prophet). The Torah’s choice of the word Yevoshet (the drying up of the water) hints at a link between Noach’s actions, the raven, and the future arrival of Eliyahu, a figure who would also be tested by challenges of compassion vs. cruelty.

The Hebrew word Yevoshet, which appears in the verse about the raven, hints at a future role for this bird. Its letters, Yud-Bet-Shin-Tav, correspond to “Tishbi,” referring to Eliyahu HaTishbi (Elijah the Tishbite). This subtlety links the raven’s mission to Eliyahu’s experience during a period of drought and famine brought upon Israel. In that incident, Eliyahu decreed a famine because of King Achav and Queen Jezebel’s idolatry and persecution of righteous prophets. While in hiding, Hashem provided for Eliyahu by sending ravens to bring him food—an incredible contrast, as ravens are known to be self-centered and unlikely to help others. However, these ravens brought kosher meat and bread from King Yehoshaphat’s table, serving Eliyahu with Hashem’s clear divine intention.

This role reversal of the ravens highlights a profound message: despite the generation’s wickedness, Hashem wished to inspire Eliyahu to have compassion, even when punishment seemed justified. Just as Hashem performed a miracle, transforming ravens to serve another, He hinted to Eliyahu to find a spark of compassion for his people. This connection to Eliyahu suggests that even the cruel can perform acts of kindness through divine intervention.

The transition from sadness to joy and the importance of joy in mitzvot is a powerful reminder that transformation begins with our inner state. The dove, a symbol of natural goodness and simcha, was chosen for the renewal of creation, showing that the key to new beginnings lies in finding joy and meaning within!

Rebbe Nachman, in Likutey Moharan lesson 24 Part II, teaches that true greatness lies in transforming sadness into joy. He gives the analogy of people at a wedding who may start off reluctant to dance but eventually join, often being pulled into the circle against their will. The ultimate goal is not just to cheer up those who are sad temporarily but to turn their sadness into lasting joy.

This transformation aligns with the raven’s nature, marked by achzariyut (cruelty), which stems from sadness and lack of simcha (joy). Hashem created the raven with dark plumage and a somber disposition, symbolizing this sadness and the cruelty that comes with it. A person who lacks joy can become exacting and unkind, closed off from others. By contrast, happiness leads people to be more open, giving, and generous. When people are joyful, they are naturally inclined toward kindness and compassion, whereas sadness can harden hearts, turning them toward cruelty.

Thus, the raven’s reluctance and cruelty represent the challenge of sadness, while the dove embodies the potential for renewal and hope through joy. This story reminds us that cultivating simcha transforms not only our outlook but our very nature, leading us away from cruelty and toward compassion and kindness.

Thus, Noach’s decision to initially send out the raven, rather than the dove, held symbolic meaning. Despite knowing the raven’s negative characteristics, Noach hoped that, with the world beginning anew, this would be an ideal time to transform cruelty into compassion. He even made the raven feel insignificant, telling it there was “no use” for it in the Jewish future, as it wouldn’t be used for sacrifices or for food. While this was a harsh approach, Noach intended to spark some self-reflection in the raven, similar to how Rebbe Nachman once pushed an individual to see his own potential and worth, even when he felt hopeless.

Despite Noach’s efforts, the raven’s cruelty was too deeply rooted, and it failed the test, refusing to fully carry out its mission. Hashem, however, hinted that the raven’s transformation would come in a later time. Specifically, the raven’s cruelty would find a redemptive purpose during the time of Eliyahu HaNavi. In his zealousness, Eliyahu decreed a long famine on Israel, a harsh punishment that came from a place of justice but lacked compassion. Hashem reminded Eliyahu of the need for mercy by having the ravens bring him food during his time in hiding. This act, against the ravens’ nature, showed Eliyahu the importance of compassion and ultimately led to his role in heralding joyous events, such as the coming of Mashiach and attending every Brit Milah, symbolizing his shift toward simcha (joy) and mercy.

After the raven’s failure, Noach turned to the dove, a symbol of purity and humility, which represents the Jewish people. The dove went out three times, each mission marking stages of hope and progress as the waters receded. The dove’s unique qualities align with Rebbe Nachman’s teaching in Likutey Moharan Lesson 24, which describes how a person’s performance of mitzvot and good deeds, when infused with joy, create a momentum that brings blessings. The dove’s persistence also parallels the Jewish people’s dedication in adversity, unwavering in their connection to Hashem.

Rebbe Nachman emphasizes that true blessing is found in intellectual clarity, which brings deep contentment and a sense of purpose. For Noach, the dove’s mission wasn’t merely about finding dry land—it was about symbolizing the possibility of a new era filled with blessings, clarity, and joy, foundational qualities for rebuilding a righteous world.

Noach’s choice to first send the raven and then the dove reflects a deep spiritual lesson about the transition from darkness to joy and renewal. The raven, symbolizing cruelty and sadness, was chosen with the hope of transforming it into compassion. However, the raven failed to rise to the task, reflecting that it wasn’t yet the time for such a transformation.

In contrast, the dove—a symbol of purity and the Jewish people’s resilience—was sent out three times, each time representing a step closer to a new beginning. The first mission was infused with simcha (joy) in doing a mitzvah, symbolized by the dove’s momentum, striving to fulfill its duty. The second mission saw the dove return with an olive branch, a symbol of intellect, knowledge of Hashem, and spiritual blessing. This intellect is vital but must be combined with emunah (faith), to maintain balance and avoid losing oneself to misconceptions.

Finally, on the third mission, the dove did not return. This symbolizes the merging of finite creation with the Infinite Light, allowing Noach to open the ark’s doors and restart creation. The dove’s success, rooted in joy and willingness to do good, demonstrated that true renewal requires an initial foundation of internal happiness and positivity. Rebbe Nachman teaches that it’s a greater accomplishment to start from an already existing state of joy than to depend on an external light/source to spark it. The raven’s inability to find inner goodness left it circling, unable to carry out its mission, while the dove’s readiness led it to become the messenger of a new world.

This transition from sadness to joy and the importance of maintaining joy in mitzvot is a powerful reminder that transformation begins with our inner state. The dove, a symbol of natural goodness and simcha, was ultimately chosen for the renewal of creation, showing that the key to new beginnings lies in finding joy and meaning within.
