Moses—Leader of Faith above Reason

224The fourth day of Sukkot is dedicated to the guest of honor (Ushpizin) Moses, the revelation of correction in the Sefira Netzach. There is no greater and closer person to us than Moses who brought the method of revealing the Creator and connection between the Creator and the created beings closer to us. That is why Moses is so dear and so important to us.

Moses is called the faithful shepherd. This is not just the force of faith or the force of overcoming but the force of care for the created beings on the part of the Creator that helps bring them to the final correction. Therefore, the entire Torah, which is intended to bring created beings into contact with the Creator, is called the Torah of Moses. This is his main concern, main work, and main purpose.

When we speak about Moses, we do not mean the physical person, but a symbol, a special quality, and the most important thing for us in accordance with the Creator’s program of governing the world. Therefore, it is so important for us to understand this quality and come closer to it.

Moses is like a shepherd accompanying the flock, a guide helping his people move correctly and confidently toward the goal. The common force that takes care of us, protects, guards, and consistently leads us to the goal with love and attention is the force of Moses, which is warm, loving, and caring.

All these forces that envelop us and pull us toward the purpose of creation are called the Torah. This is the upper light that comes to us, clothes in us, and fills each and every one of us together, like a shepherd who gathers his flock and leads it home.

The shepherd has a special mission to take the flock out of the house, bring it to a relatively dangerous place, and return it home in the evening. Due to the work of the shepherd, the herds are nurtured, grow, and multiply. The “faithful shepherd” is a leader of faith because every time his wards move away from home and then return home, thanks to these exits and returns, they gain more and more spiritual strength, more strength of faith that Moses cultivates in them.

Therefore, we need to see ourselves as such a congregation, ready to follow the force of Moses, which takes care of us. As a result of this, we are straightening up day by day and are getting filled with the force of faith above reason. This is the main thing we need, and we can acquire this faith mainly thanks to Moses.
