Truth Doesn't Die Moses in all his light and merit, did not enter the promised land, he implored HaShem to which HaShem says; don't ask me any more. HaShem had a reason.

So Moses light, his merits were outside the land; so that when Israel in distress outside the land, Jews in Persia, Mose's merits gained Kol Israel a deliverance; as that was MOses greates role as the sent one to deliver the Israelites out of Eqypt.

This teaches us; that whatever merit we may attain; is not for us; is for someone's future. Reply

Fo Zevulun Your question demonstrates that you got the point of the class. But I think it can be simply answered.

Moses was not the body into which he was born. He was—and is—that essence-core of the universal soul at which truth shines without compromise.

So, yes, just as that never dies, that was never born. It's only that, from the world's perspective, there was a time when it shone through one body, and a time that it shone through another body. Reply

Thank you! May Hashem bless all who are listening, and you and yours, Rabbi Freeman and all Jews and all people - to heal fully and align with G-ds will on the merit of the Rebbe. Mashiach now. Reply

If Moshe is ‘equated’ with eternity of truth of Torah and Torah is everlasting (therefore Moshe) how could Moshe have been born? Didn't the existence of truth of Torah exist before Moshe’s birth? Reply
