Here [it seems] we are not speaking of a conscious yearning form of Repentance, but rather a step forward in Jewish practice which has the effect of bringing the person to a higher level almost without realising it. Rabbi Shneur Zalman explains that G-d's being sanctified means the revelation of Divine holiness in the heart of the Jew, that his or her heart flames with enthusiasm to be absorbed in G-d's infinite holiness. Chabad Research Unit – www.chabad.research.net – cru@lubavitchuk.com The reason why each of these is from the level of Keter, Crown, the Transcendent, is because holiness is always a step beyond, transcendent. It is inside the person, and it suddenly reveals itself in his or her practical life This is the background to the Midrash suggesting that the holiness of man might be like the holiness of G-d. A Midrash3 discusses the idea of the holiness of G-d and of the Jewish people, as expressed in the verse Holy, Holy, Holy, with an image of a King whose subjects made three crowns for him. In the first mode, G-d declares that He is holy, in the first verse, and then in the second verse, on a distinctly lower level, there are the two kinds of holiness of the Jewish people. This can be further understood from a discussion concerning the topic of holiness in last week’s Sedra Kedoshim, where we read "You should be holy, because I G-d am holy". The Midrash4 comments further on this: you should be holy, do you think you can be as holy as Me, the Torah says "for I G-d am holy" My holiness is greater than yours. The Midrash links this with the verses ‘[You should be holy because] I am holy’ (Kedoshim 19:2) and “you should sanctify yourselves and be holy” (Kedoshim 20:7).
