Wagschal, Harav Hagaon Yehuda Shlita

Emes as an Expression of Rachamim

Parshas Ki Savo/Selichos

Harav Hagaon Yehudah Wagshal shlita

This Motzaei Shabbos we will begin to say Selichos, a major focus of which are the 13 middos harachamim. I would like to highlight one of the 13 middos harachamim that doesnโ€™t seem to reflect rachamim, and that is emes: ืึถืจึถืšึฐ ืึทืคึผึทื™ึดื ื•ึฐืจึทื‘ ื—ึถืกึถื“ ื•ึถืึฑืžึถืช.

Emes means truth, exactitude โ€” which is what din is. Yet we want Hakadosh Baruch Hu to behave with us lifnim mishuras hadin, which means going beyond strict judgment. Where is the rachamim in emes?

In order to understand this, we need to have a clear understanding of what emes really means. Obviously, emes means truth, but thereโ€™s a deeper meaning to emes as well.

We say in Aleinu every day, ืึฑืžึถืช ืžึทืœึฐื›ึผึตื ื•ึผ ืึถืคึถืก ื–ื•ึผืœึธืชื•ึน โ€” Hashem, our King, is emes; there is no one else besides Him. Shouldnโ€™t we say that Hashem is one โ€” echad โ€” and there is no one else besides Him? What does emes have to do with there being no one else? We see from here that the two concepts are one and the same: emes is echad โ€” one. Because when thereโ€™s only one truth, thatโ€™s emes. A ย person who says sheker is making up a second thing that doesnโ€™t exist, and thatโ€™s the definition of sheker.

Man is Pure Sheker

This idea is also reflected in the Midrash in Tehillim, which relates that when Hakadosh Baruch Hu was deciding to create Adam HaRishon, there was a big debate between the different middos as to whether man should be created. Chessed and emes were on opposite sides of this debate, as the passuk states, ื—ึถืกึถื“ ื•ึถืึฑืžึถืช ื ึดืคึฐื’ึผึธืฉืื•ึผ: Chessed said, create Adam because heโ€™s gomel chassadim. Emes said, donโ€™t create Adam, because heโ€™s kulo sheker.

If the Midrash would say that emes argued that Adam shouldnโ€™t be created because he lies often, I would understand. But the lashon of the Midrash is that Adam is kulo sheker โ€” heโ€™s entirely sheker. Is there really no truth in Adam? People indeed lie sometimes, even often. But they donโ€™t always lie. Why is Adam considered kulo sheker, to the point that he doesnโ€™t deserve to be created?

We can answer based on the above idea that emes means one. A malach, for example, is one, in the sense that he is single-minded: he focuses only on Hakadosh Baruch Hu and ruchniyus; gashmiyus plays no role in his existence. An animal is also emes; itโ€™s also one-track minded. It has one goal โ€” gashmiyus, and its sole focus is the world we live in. A beheimah has zero ruchniyus.

Adam, however, is pulled in opposing directions. He is made up, on one hand, of a chelek Eloka mimaโ€™al โ€” his neshamah, which is striving and pulling him towards ruchniyus. And then he has his guf, which is like a beheimah, pulling him toward gashmiyus. A person is all over the place; by definition, he is not emes, since emes means being one-track-minded. Therefore, emes said, donโ€™t create him, since heโ€™s kulo sheker.

Hakadosh Baruch Hu did create man in the end. What, then, was His response to the argument that emes put forth? The Midrash says, based on the passuk ืึฑืžึถืช ืžึตืึถืจึถืฅ ืชึผึดืฆึฐืžึธื—, that Hashem took middas haโ€™emes and threw it to the ground, so that emes would grow from there.

All in One Direction

What does this mean? A person, by definition, is a walking contradiction โ€” kulo sheker, since his guf pulls him to all the taavos and gashmiyus of the world, while his neshamah pulls him to the highest places in ruchniyus.

But Hakadosh Baruch Hu created a tremendous chiddush. He took emes and threw it into the ground, essentially declaring that itโ€™s possible for a human being to live in this world and tend to the needs of his guf, his animalistic side, but to channel all that to Hakadosh Baruch Hu. In other words, a person can be one-track minded with his guf and harness it in the service of the neshamah. Just because he has a guf and a neshamah, that doesnโ€™t mean he has to lead a double life, torn between his striving for good and his pull towards bad. He can live in this world and take what he needs from it, while channeling it to avodas Hashem.

If his purpose and goal with that gashmiyus is just to party and have a good time, heโ€™s living a sheker. But if he takes that enjoyment and uses it to clear his mind so he can focus on avodas Hashem, then even his guf is helping him serve Hashem: โ€œNow my mind is clear, and I donโ€™t feel deprived, so I can focus on whatโ€™s really important without worrying about my health, or about parnassah or other physical needs. Iโ€™ll throw my guf a bone so that I should be able to focus.โ€

Then, even though heโ€™s gashmi, he is headed in a single direction. He can then enjoy his gashmiyus ื‘ึฐึผืฉึดื‚ืžึฐื—ึธื” ื•ึผื‘ึฐื˜ื•ึผื‘ ืœึตื‘ึธื‘ ืžึตืจึนื‘ ื›ึนึผืœ, as it says in this weekโ€™s parshah. Emes can grow out of the ground, out of the gashmiyus, because itโ€™s all one.

We canโ€™t deny that we have a guf, with physical needs. Our challenge is not to let that physicality lead us to live a double life, a life of contradictions, such as if Iโ€™m one person in the beis midrash and in shul, and a totally different person when Iโ€™m at work or on vacation. True, I have my gashmiyus needs, but that doesnโ€™t take away from my focus on avodas Hashem, which is the emes of what a Yid stands for. Thatโ€™s our avodah, and thatโ€™s middas haโ€™emes.

We can now understand what emes means in the context of the 13 middos harachamim. A person is expected to serve Hashem and to bring himself, and the world, to the place where Hakadosh Baruch Hu wants him and the world to be. Sometimes, we slip and do the wrong thing, and middas hadin demands that retribution be served.

But middas haโ€™emes dictates that since Hakadosh Baruch Hu is emes, everything has to stay focused on the goal of serving Him. Even if we made a mistake, or we slip up on occasion, we, and Klal Yisrael in general, are working towards the goal of bringing the world and ourselves closer to Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Yes, we made a mistake along the way, but we still stay focused on the main goal.

Middas haโ€™emes is one of Hakadosh Baruch Huโ€™s attributes, and if we behave with the middas haโ€™emes that comes from the earth, maintaining a focus on avodas Hashem in our life, we can turn to Hakadosh Baruch Hu and beg him to exercise middas haโ€™emes as well and stay focused on Klal Yisraelโ€™s ultimate goal. Even if we made mistakes, and even if we slipped up once in a while, we say to Hakadosh Baruch Hu, โ€œHere we are, fulfilling Your ultimate goal and staying focused on that.โ€

In that zechus, He should grant us a yeshuah and a kapparah.
