#69 - Perek Daled P - Mesilas Yesharim Explained

We explained last time, amazingly, how the mitzvah of Shalom explains how tshuva works.

V'hu, in the middle of the paragraph, V'hu ma'a shomar kosu, the pozik says, in Yeshayahu, v'sar avonecha, and your sin will leave, v'chat tofsach, v'chat tatscho, t'chupar, and your sin will be atoned.

Sha'avon mamash sar mimitzias.

This is an important line.

A person has to believe in this line.

once tshuva works, and it's a chidish, as we explained, but then it's, it's not there anymore, gone, and it's uprooted, through the fact that the person has such tzar, and regret on what happened, now, he goes and he summarizes the whole thing, and this, It doesn't have to work like that, for sure.

That means it's a chesed.

Here's the dance.

Here's the balance.

It doesn't go against the din in totality.

Because there is a way to look at it.

Even maybe we'll see soon the word reasonable.

A reasonable way to look at it.

against the desire that he had about the ched, and the pleasure he had in it.

Now comes the regret and the pain over it.

The loss, the mourning, the grief, all that.

So all those things, the mourning, the grief, etc., go against that.

So, there you have it.

The incredible, yet within reason, Kiddush of Tshuva.
