WHITE FIRE IN THE COMING AGE

B"H


POINTS TO BE EXPLICATED MOTZI SHABBOS:



MAGGIDIM ARISING AS RESPONSE TO SPECIFIC ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS

TASK FOR OUR AGE (POST-RABBINIC) IS TO WRITE THE THIRD TORAH

RABBININC AGE BASED ON BLACK FIRE OF TORAH--NEW AGE BASED ON WHITE FIRE OF TORAH

THE TASK OF OUR GENERATION(S) IS TO BE A BRIDGE FROM ONE AGE TO THE NEXT

WE LIVE ONE FOOT IN ONE WORLD AND ONE FOOT IN ANOTHER

WE LIVE IN THE IN-BETWEEN PLACES

MIDRASHIC COMMUNITY-- SEEING THE IN-BETWEEN PLACES

NOT JUST RABBIS-- WHOLE KEHILLA MUST WRITE TORAH TOGETHER

PEOPLE MUST BECOME EMPOWERED TO KNOW THAT THEY ARE ALREADY EMPOWERED TO WRITE TORAH

PEOPLE MUST KNOW THAT THE TORAH OF THEIR LIVES IS LEGITIMATE

MAGGIDIM SPECIALIZE IN HELPING PEOPLE RELATE TO THE TORAH OF THEIR LIVES.

MAGGIDIM SPECIALIZE IN BRIDGING TORAH TO LIFE AND MUST NOW DO THIS BETWEEN THE AGES

THE NEW MAGGIDIM WILL NOT BE LIMITED BY MEANS OF MAGGIDIC EXPRESSION BECAUSE...

THE PRIMARY JOB OF THE MAGGID IS TO "RELATE" WHICH CAN BE DONE THROUGH MANY MEDIUMS

THE NEW MODEL FOR JEWISH INTENTIONAL COMMUNITY IS MIDRASHIC

JEWISH INTENTIONAL COMMUNITY WORKS LIKE FRACTALS FROM HAVURAH TO KLAL YISROEL

NEW AGE WILL DEMAND FULL SPECTRUM, FREE FLOWING JEWISH COMMUNITY MODEL

NEED FOR UPBUILDING THE SOUL OF THE STATE

ESSENTIAL LINK BETWEEN THE LAND AND THE DIASPORA AND THE NEED FOR BOTH

JUDAISM IS ESSENTIALLY MIDRASHIC BY NATURE
