Highlights:4:00 Knowing Hashem and seeing Hashem
7:15 Moshe sought moral knowledge of God's ways, not metaphysical knowledge of God's nature
10:30 Moshe sought to understand why some righteous people suffer, and other righteous people prosper; why some evildoers suffer, and other evildoers prosper
16:30 Moshe couldn't understand the goodness of God as it is manifest in the universe; the prophets could understand it
18:15 Completely righteous people don't suffer, whereas incompletely righteous people do suffer
22:00 What completely righteous people believe to be right will occur to them
26:00 The answer to the question about the suffering of the righteous was acceptable for the prophets but not for Moshe
29:30 Is God good if He is good only to the extent that people are completely righteous?
32:30 Seeing Hashem's back means seeing the end of His actions, in the future; seeing His face means seeing Him in the present
36:00 A person should emulate Hashem if and only if His actions are knownThis lecture series is a project of the Jacob Lights Foundation.

Highlights:0:00 The position of our Rebbe, the wicked King Manasseh, that idolatry is appropriate
5:00 Manasseh's case against the Isaiah in which he charged the prophet with heresy and executed him for that crime
8:45 Can Hashem be seen or not? Moshe's stance and the prophets' stance
12:00 Can Hashem be known or not? Moshe's stance and the prophets' stance
20:30 Moshe uses words differently than all the prophets do, and is therefore termed "not a man of words"
24:15 The contradiction between the Torah and the Prophets regarding the importance of sacrificial worship (https://open.substack.com/pub/shnayor/p/ee-and-r-3_4-between-the-torah-and?r=111271&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web)
29:45 The prophets do something fundamentally different from Moshe and the Torah
34:30 Moshe's request to see God indicates that Moshe is supposed to see God
36:30 The last of the books of the Torah implies that Hashem can be known
38:15 Idolatry is wrong only for those who are familiar with Hashem and know Him
43:00 Manasseh's argument why idolatry is appropriate according to the Torah itself
46:00 Manasseh considered the Torah to be aspirational until such time that its great potential is unlocked
48:00 Manasseh considered avoiding idolatry to be akin to rushing the end of times before we're ready for it
51:15 The unrequited overture to the Nation of Israel at the time of the Exodus offering them knowledge of Hashem
54:30 The Torah has always been aspirational
