Hemshech Rab Brachya 5643 Three discourses given by the Rebbe Rashab on 3 successive Shabbosim during the year (1882-3) covering the topic of the Beis Hamikdash (the Temple). The following questions are explored: 1. Why would G-d prefer our service to Him in the physical world to what transpires in the spiritual worlds? 2. What does it mean that G-d needs sacrifice and how can we explain the concept that G-d is nourished by the sacrifices we offer? 3. What does it mean that G-d has a home in a physical temple and how can G -d be satisfied by such a home? The next topic covered in the classes is the question of space. What is the Torah position on the reality of space (and time)? There are two opinions about space and the ma'amar explains the differences between them and then attempts to find a reconciliation.
