CHABAD ‫ב"ה‬ RESEARCH UNIT Summaries of points of the Rebbe’s Chassidic Discourses ‫בלי אחריות כלל וכלל‬ ‫פרשת נשא תשכ''ו ד''ה וידבר אלקים בלתי מוגה‬ Published for Shabbat Sedra Naso 14 Sivan 5783, 3 June 20231 THE TEN COMMANDMENTS AND THE TEN UTTERANCES ND G-D SPOKE ALLTHESE WORDS SAYING....” (Ex.20:1). Chabad Research Unit – www.chabadresearch.net – cru@lubavitchuk.com The Rashab continues in the Maamar, that the word ‘saying’ hints at the Ten Utterances (‘sayings’) with which the world was created. Generally, in G-d’s commands to Moses, the word ‘saying’ is understood as meaning that G-d was instructing him to repeat to the Jewish people the commands which he alone had heard from G-d. In Rabbi Shneur Zalman’s Gate of Unity and Faith (Tanya Part 2) it explains that every particle of the universe exists because of a constant input of a stream of energy from the Divine. Through various practices, such as having salt (which comes from water) at the table, which is holy, and on Succot, the Joy of the Water drawing, we seek to elevate the lower waters. ‘Saying’ means the Ten Utterances creating the world, which need the input of the Ten Commandments, in order to fulfil the true purpose of Creation. The Rashab continues in his Maamar with a discussion of the verse “If you walk in My statutes I will give your rain in its season...” (Lev.26:3). One, that by means of the Torah the universe was created, as the Midrash4 tells us that the Torah was a kind of blueprint for the universe. Further, the Rebbe explains, the upper waters are the realm of the Ten Commandments, while the lower waters are that of the Ten Utterances. This links with a saying of the Sages: when the Jewish people fulfil G-d’s will, the land is watered by the rain, from the upper waters.
