Delving Into Dreams: Exploring Their Role in Jewish History, Torah Milestones, and Prophetic Visions

Imagine slipping into a world where dreams are divine conduits, offering glimpses of the profound and the prophetic. That's precisely the intriguing realm we delve into as we journey through Jewish history, witnessing how dreams shaped the lives and destinies of many righteous individuals. We reflect on Revolba's words that a true Torah scholar's milestone is when he dreams in Torah, opening up a world of intense spiritual introspection. 

As we proceed, we understand that contemporary dreams and prophetic messages are only for the most devout individuals, revealing how our dreams often echo our daytime thoughts and obsessions. Whether it's a business tycoon dreaming of a major deal, a young kid envisioning a game-winning shot, or a spiritual seeker dreaming of Torah greatness, we discover that dreams are an intimate reflection of our innermost desires. Through this insightful discussion, we challenge you to ponder your dreams and what they may reveal about your deepest desires and spiritual quests. What does your dream world look like?

00:00:02.185 --> 00:00:03.669
What did you dream about last night?

00:00:03.669 --> 00:00:17.233
It seems like an important, pressing question because, well, dreams play a significant role in the entire unfolding of Jewish history and definitely of note is safer voracious.

00:00:17.233 --> 00:00:25.301
How many righteous individuals were told prophetic messages based on something that they saw, on a dream.

00:00:25.301 --> 00:00:59.600
And it makes a little bit of sense to us how Revolba said that actually the mark that a person has made it in his Torah study, that he is an honor roll Torah standout scholar, as when he has his first dream in Torah and I never really understood it actually A Torah greatness feel forever away, impossible and still have yet to have anything of a Torah dream.

00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:01.165
But maybe one day.

00:01:01.165 --> 00:01:03.140
But what am I?

00:01:03.140 --> 00:01:07.792
Rebate and just told me an insight that could help maybe bring it a little bit closer.

00:01:07.792 --> 00:01:16.125
He said nowadays is normally the dreams and the prophetic messages are only held off for those significant sadikah.

00:01:17.140 --> 00:01:21.370
We generally just dream about what we think about during the day, our life obsessions.

00:01:21.370 --> 00:01:35.353
He went on to explain how well it isn't crazy for Balabatim or rich businessmen, those business tycoons, to dream in putting together a big deal with fancy investors on a private plane.

00:01:35.353 --> 00:01:44.588
And it isn't out of the question for a young kid who's inspiring to make the basketball association to dream about hitting the game winning shot.

00:01:44.588 --> 00:01:50.111
We just all dream about what we are subconsciously daydreaming about.

00:01:52.703 --> 00:02:19.045
I don't know what that says about my dreams of schnitzel, or most of the time I can't remember my dreams, but I guess if we do find a way to care and obsess, have our life goals, be that of greatness, of Torah, of mitzvahs, of things that have real eternal value, then maybe it isn't crazy.

00:02:19.045 --> 00:02:31.024
We're out of the question how it is that Shmuel wakes up and jot something down, because dreams definitely are connected to the divine, to the holy.

00:02:31.024 --> 00:02:48.147
If we can obsess, if we think about what we really care about the same way that we care about some of our other life obsessions and goals, then maybe we will have some sort of quasi dream about something that is of the sacred.

00:02:48.147 --> 00:02:52.361
So what do you dream about?
