I want to share with you a true story that happened with me this week. Some lady parked in my spot in front of the Yeshivah. I went over to her and said you are not allowed to park here and I pointed to the sign that said חניה פרטית. She answered OH, בסדר! She closed the back door of her car and then walked away down the street without looking back. I thought to myself that in the past I found people pushing through a crowd and saying together with the shove סליחה as if it is ok to push and be impolite as long as you say the magic word החילס. I don't want to even imagine what their saying סליחות before Rosh Hashanah and Aseres Yemai Teshuvah looks like. Here too from this incident I dread to imagine what kind of meaningful Pesach "Seder" is this individual going to have after her remark and lack of tikkun.!
Hashem who created the world has a Seder for every one of the gezillion blades of grass and stars in the universe as we say םיבכוכה תא רדסמה במשמרותיה ונוצרכ ם. Chazal (Medrash Koheles 7 19) tell המכ ישעמ האר ול רמאו ןדע ןג יðטלו והחזירו על כל אילðבשעה שברא הקב"ה את אדם הראשון אים ומשובחין הן וכל מה שבראתי בשבילך בראתי ð ךתעד ןת שלא תקלקל ותחריב את עולמי שאם קלקלת אין מי שיתקן אחריך that when Adam was created Hashem gave him a tour of Gan Eden and said look how pleasant and praiseworthy is my creation. I did this all for you. Make sure you don't ruin it because no one will be able to fix the damage you will have done.
If man realizes the perfection of Hashem's creation and how beneficial it was made for him, then he won't abuse it for selfish gains. Hashem told Adam תן ךתעד that you must constantly push to be conscious of the fact that there exists a divine order, nothing is extra or displaced. If one thinks about something that means it is significant to him and he will cherish the gift of the world that was granted to him. This תן דעתך is for every person in every generation for Chazal tell us חייב אדם לומר בשבילי נברא העולם. The source for this might stem from this Chazal above יתארבש המ לכו בשבילך יתארב. However, we tend to get habituated to the seder of nature and it also has its laws and that makes one forget that Hashem is constantly making those laws of seder. םלוכ תא היחמ התאו. They don't happen by themselves.
If we examine the letters of רדס we will find that they share the same letters as דרס to trample and step on. When one loses the תן דעתך on creation he loses the daily focus on the creator of the seder in creation. Even the סדר and laws of nature are hiding a דוס a secret which spells the first two letters of סדר. The concealed secret of nature is that it has a letter ר which means a ראש a first cause. When scientists always get stumped and they cannot answer what caused and preceded this earliest link in the chain, the honest ones will reluctantly admit there is no present explanation other than the "G-d Factor" the .עילה כל העילות .
Chazal use the word עקב heel to describe trampling on a mitzvah היהו עקב תשמעון (Devarim 7,12) see Rashi. It does not mean one physically steps on it but rather it has lost its significance and one has become desensitized to it. The reason being because he does not invest effort to תן דעתך to consciously think about the universe, its seder, and how it came into existence through the Supreme Being Hashem.
We suggest that the word עבטwhich means nature also shares the letters of עבט which means a collateral and security. When you take a loan you give the lender or pawnbroker something valuable to you which is an incentive to repay the loan. One can say that Hashem gives a Yid a most precious and valuable loan which is his neshama to "spend" a life time on earth and amass Torah and mitzvos. The collateral that man must give to Hashem is his body and the nature of the world. As the sefarim explain the passuk השמים שמים לה' והארץ נתן לבני אדם that Hashem made the heaven spiritual but the earth He gave man to make it spiritual. The purpose of Man is to elevate and sanctify the physical and give it as collateral to his loan the neshamah from Hashem. The motivation to elevate the security of teva is to realize that it possesses a סדר a secret that is not visible to the naked eye , the Rebono Shel Olam who constantly sustains it.
The Aseres Hadibross has the number of עקב 172 words. The world and its nature and Seder were created through its blueprints the Torah. It is therefore through the study of Torah that one is stirred to fulfill the תן דעתך which is necessary to be conscious of Hashem's constant Seder and intervention in the world. Note that the word עקב is also קבע fixed which denotes seder the opposite of chance.
The Seder night is an exercise to realign ourselves to the creator of Seder found in nature. As the Maharal explains that even miracles and supernatural events have a seder by Hashem. Absolutely nothing is happenstance.
New World Order and Jewish Perspective
There is a conspiracy theory of a group of the powerful elite who plan to govern and enslave the world populace. It is called the New World Order NWO. This narrative is commonly associated with other anti-Semitic conspiracy theories that claim Jewish culpability, alleging that they are behind the orchestration of the NWO, leading to an increased danger towards Jewish communities.
The Rambam writes that Christianity and Islam which are the belief in a monotheistic G-d, was Hashem's plan in order to prepare the world for the final geulah and belief in Hashem. We suggest that the buzz conspiracy talk of the existence of New World Order even if it is untrue, is there to pave the way for Hashem and the geulah when there will be a recognition of a New World Order in the universe which is the Kingdom of Hashem. For Am Yisrael this world order is not going to be new. The Avos and the Shevatim lived by it. Am Yisrael were made privy to it in their geulah from Mitzrayim. Every year we transmit to our children at the Seder that from the moment of creation there was and there will always be a Seder that Hashem sustains. No wonder why they associate Am Yisrael with this conspiracy theory because we are the ones who are committed to subjugate our lives asעבדים to Hashem. We alone recognize and accept upon ourselves the Orders that Hashem has given us in the Torah that align to the profound Order that is found in creation behind which Hashem is hiding only to be discovered by Man.
