CHABAD ב"ה RESEARCH UNIT he Rebbe's Discourses T Free Summaries of the Rebbe’s Chassidic Discourses בלי אחריות כלל וכלל ד"ה והי' כי תבוא תשמ"ג בלתי מוגה Republished for Sedra Ki Tavo 16 Elul 5786, 29 August 20261 THE FIRST FRUITS AND PRAYER T HE SEDRA STARTS WITH THE COMMAND THAT WHEN THE JEWISH PEOPLE ENTER THE LAND OF ISRAEL they should bring ‘First Fruits’ to the Temple2. Let us hope that soon we will be granted the ultimate blessing, when we will all be able to enter the Land, in peace, with the building of the Third Temple, and we will again bring the offering of the First Fruits to G-d, in the literal sense of the words. There we say that G-d gives us from His ‘hand’ which is ‘full, open, sacred and broad’, relating to the four letters of the Divine Name, pouring blessing from the highest level of Emanation into the three lower worlds of Creation, Formation and Action. The idea that the prayers correspond to the daily offerings in the Temple is expressed in the times for prayer, which relate to the times for the Temple offerings, and to which prayers we say. The angels going up the ladder are like the words of the prayer reaching towards G-d, and the angels coming down the ladder express G-d’s blessing to the person and the Jewish people. For example, the Musaf ‘Additional Prayer’ said on Sabbaths and other special days corresponds to the fact that on those days an ‘Additional Offering’ would be brought in the Temple. The comparison of prayer to the bringing of the First Fruits, the best of one’s produce, relates to the fact that prayer is, or should be, from the most exalted aspect of one’s soul. The fact that the First Fruit is put in a ‘basket’ itself expresses the way that we receive abundantly from G-d and are able to make a vessel in which His abundance can be contained. This double process of movement towards G-d and His response to us, links to the idea of the Jewish people entering the Land of Israel, as explained by the Baal Shem Tov5. During prayer a person tries to be aware of the Divine before Whom he or she is praying, and to feel a sense of awe, and love, and selflessness before the Infinite.
