What does the copper snake teach us about healing — and why did God cure Israel using the same thing that was killing them?
In this lesson on Parashat Hukat, Rav Israel Yakobov shares deep Kabbalah insights on healing — physical, mental, and spiritual. Drawing from the Baal HaTurim, the Ben Ish Chai, the Rambam, and the Baal Shem Tov, this class covers:
— Why the Torah writes “vayehi” and not “vayhi” in the story of the snake — and what this hints about staying joyful in hard times
— The gematria secret: how adding “it’s from Hashem” (the number 1) turns your judgment (16 = din) into pure good (17 = tov)
— Why years of prayer sometimes don’t bring results — and the one foundational step that’s missing
— The principle behind vaccines, homeopathy, and spiritual healing: the cure lives inside the disease itself
— The Kabbalah concept of “fallen fear” — why anxiety about spiders, heights, or dogs is a fear of God that fell — and how to bring it back to its root
— The hidden Divine Name encoded inside the Hebrew word for “snake” — and how meditating on it cancels decrees
Whether you’re dealing with health challenges, financial pressure, fears, or relationship difficulties — this lesson offers a clear, practical Kabbalah framework for healing anything in life.
