2 shiurim for Tehillim
Why does Tehillim 81 define Rosh Hashanah as the "hidden moon holiday"? The shiur develops the principle that the moon's diminishment teaches the foundation of malchus: serving Hashem means receiving exactly what's needed for the job, without self-aggrandizement or feeling entitled as "part of management." This yesod explains Parshas Nitzavim's warning against those who hear the bris yet think "b'shirirus libi elech"—a dangerous mindset that confuses spiritual elevation with ownership rights.
Why did Hashem insist on giving us Eretz Yisrael rather than creating a new land for us? The shiur explores a Midrash that claims Hashem wanted to show His power by defeating our enemies. This creates an ongoing divine commitment to protect us in a hostile environment where the nations perceive us as thieves of their land.
