The
Ribboinoi Shel Oilam tried to give the Torah to the other nations. Each nation
asked regarding the Aveira that is most difficult for them to keep. For
example: Loi Tignoiv, Loi Sin’af, and then they rejected the Torah. Klal
Yisrael then accepted the Torah. The question that was asked of the Sfas Emes was
which Mitzvah is the most difficult for Klal Yisrael to keep? Moshe is told to warn Klal Yisrael not to go
up on Har Sinai as the Psukim that are written here show. כא וַיֹּאמֶר יְרוָר אֶל-מֹשֶׁה,
רֵד הָעֵד בָּעָם: פֶּן-יֶהֶרְסוּ אֶל- יְרוָר לִרְאוֹת,
וְנָפַל מִמֶּנּוּ רָב כב וְגַם הַכֹּהֲנִים הַנִּגָּשִׁים אֶל יְרוָר,
יִתְקַדָּשׁוּ: פֶּן-יִפְרֹץ בָּהֶם, יְרוָר כג וַיֹּאמֶר
מֹשֶׁה, אֶל- יְרוָר,
לֹא-יוּכַל הָעָם, לַעֲלֹת אֶל-הַר סִינָי: כִּי-אַתָּה הַעֵדֹתָה בָּנוּ,
לֵאמֹר, הַגְבֵּל אֶת-הָהָר, וְקִדַּשְׁתּוֹ כד וַיֹּאמֶר
אֵלָיו יְרוָר
לֶךְ-רֵד, וְעָלִיתָ אַתָּה וְאַהֲרֹן עִמָּךְ; וְהַכֹּהֲנִים וְהָעָם,
אַל-יֶהֶרְסוּ לַעֲלֹת אֶל- יְרוָר --פֶּן-יִפְרָץ-בָּם כה וַיֵּרֶד
מֹשֶׁה, אֶל-הָעָם; וַיֹּאמֶר, אֲלֵהֶם
However,
Moshe had already warned Klal Yisrael earlier in Posuk 12 where it says, יב וְהִגְבַּלְתָּ
אֶת-הָעָם סָבִיב לֵאמֹר, הִשָּׁמְרוּ לָכֶם עֲלוֹת בָּהָר וּנְגֹעַ
בְּקָצֵהוּ: כָּל-הַנֹּגֵעַ בָּהָר, מוֹת יוּמָת Why did Moshe Rabbeinu
have to come back down the mountain to warn Klal Yisrael not to go up on the
mountain if he had already warned them? The Sfas Emes says this is a Nisayoin
by Klal Yisrael. When the Yeitzer Hora is not Matzliach by telling us not to do
Mitzvois he tries to get us to have a very strong Ratzoin to do Mitzvois and
whatever we do is not good enough. So Hakadoish Baruch Hu warns Klal Yisrael,
that there is also a Yeitzer Hora that tells us to do more and more Mitzvois
until a person is pushed into a depression when they feel that what they are
doing is not enough. So there is a limit as to how high on the mountain a
person can go.
There is
a big Yeitzer Hora today for even young B’nei Torah and B’nei Yeshiva who are
learning and are being very Matzliach, however, they feel that what they are
doing is not adequate, because they have this Yeitzer Hora that affects all
Klal Yisrael of trying to become more Kadoish and closer to Kedushah. To this
Moshe Rabbeinu said, I don’t have to warn them as I have already warned them. However,
the Ribboinoi Shel Oilam said no, even on the day of Mattan Torah the day of
the greatest Kedusha it is a Yeitzer Hora. If it would have been just a Lav to
cross a line then there wouldn’t of been this extra warning, however, this
Yeitzer Hora is one that makes you try to get more Kedusha there has to be an
additional warning that there is a limit and line that can’t get crossed that
applies to everyone.
