Chapter 64 Episode 13
<p>Rabbi Shulman continues learning the Maharal on Hallel, focusing on the “מן המצר” section and how Midrash reads “סבוני” as referring to Gog U’Magog—the archetypal head of the nations opposing Malchut Shamayim as expressed through Israel. He outlines a Midrash describing three escalating attempts by Gog U’Magog to attack Yerushalayim, then pivots to a Zohar-based reading of “דחה דחיתני לנפל” as spoken directly to the yetzer hara. Finally, Rabbi Shulman begins unpacking the Maharal’s careful reading of “עָזִּי וְזִמְרָת יָהּ וַיְהִי לִי לִישׁוּעָה,” emphasizing that the “yeshuah” is attributed to Hashem Himself, not to “strength and song.”</p> <p>Outline: <a href="https://danielggordon.github.io/ateresami/gvuros-hashem-64m-20260608-031337-outline-20260608-031412.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://danielggordon.github.io/ateresami/gvuros-hashem-64m-20260608-031337-outline-20260608-031412.pdf</a></p>

Chapter 64 Episode 12
<p>This dvar Torah (based on the Maharal’s approach) develops the idea that **הודאה** is not merely saying “thank you,” but a form of **תשלומים**—“repayment” through giving oneself back to Hashem, which creates **דבקות**. It explains why Hallel singles out three groups—**ישראל**, **בית אהרן**, and **יראי ה׳**—first as recipients of distinct חסדים, and then more deeply as possessing distinct modes of דבקות. The derash then moves to “מִן הַמֵּצַר קָרָאתִי יָּהּ,” using Midrash to show that the Divine Name invoked shapes the form of the response, and that the Name **י־ה** specifically embodies *merchav*—expansion—because “בְּיָ־הּ ה׳ צוּר עוֹלָמִים.”</p> <p>Outline: <a href="https://danielggordon.github.io/ateresami/gvuros-hashem-64l-20260510-151330-outline-20260510-151406.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://danielggordon.github.io/ateresami/gvuros-hashem-64l-20260510-151330-outline-20260510-151406.pdf</a></p>

Chapter 64 Episode 11
<p>This dvar Torah (following the Maharal’s flow through Hallel) addresses a theological tension: if Hashem governs with chessed—giving beyond strict deserving—does that compromise emes (truth/consistency)? The answer is that Hashem’s chessed itself is integrated into emes through a larger, exact accounting across time and roles in Creation. The piece then reframes “repayment” to Hashem: we cannot truly pay Him back with offerings or mitzvot as transactions, only through הוֹדָאָה—acknowledgment that returns the gift to its source by giving ourselves over to Him. Finally, it explains why Hallel highlights different circles—Israel, Beit Aharon, and Yir’ei Hashem—each receiving a distinct manifestation of chessed.</p> <p>Outline: <a href="https://danielggordon.github.io/ateresami/gvuros-hashem-64k-20260506-194558-outline-20260506-194641.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://danielggordon.github.io/ateresami/gvuros-hashem-64k-20260506-194558-outline-20260506-194641.pdf</a></p>
