Portion Vaetchanan


Shabbat Parshat Vaetchanan, "Saturday Comfort", there has been close to Tu B'Av, which stated: "It was not good days for Israel like fifteen of Av ..." Hashl"ah writes, "the dates of the year, they have relevance to the chapter we read on Shabbat".

What is the relationship between Tu B'Av to chapter Vaetchanan and to the Haftarah of: "Comfort Comfort my people"?

The greatness of Tu B'Av is the rise after the decline. Joyous event first happened Tu B'Av is proved that the death penalty idle desert. People of Israel were in the desert sin Spies happened on Tisha B'Av, every year for 40 years were dead that generation on Tisha B'Av, the last year in the forty did not die. Israel initially believed wrong with their calculation is not the day of Tisha B'Av, but on Tu B'Av was no doubt because they saw the Moon full and that means it is the middle of the month - that is Tu B'Av. Then the children of Israel understood their punishment was over, so this is a good day. The same goes for the decree of destruction and exile of Tisha B'Av, a day set "endless trouble." Tu B'Av as the day turned out to cancel the penalty in the desert, so it turns out that the decree of destruction and exile of Tisha B'Av - the day of destruction, but had not come to salvation.

 Haftarah ot this week, "Comfort Comfort my people", the first in a series of "Seven Danhmta" (seven weeks until Rosh Hashanna that every Haftarah deal with comforting Israel), heralds the beginning of redemption.

Weekly Torah portion, Parshat Vaetchanan, opening prayer of Moses to enter the Land of Israel: "I begged to God ... and see the good land." If Moses came to Israel, giving to children of Israel the land and build the temple, the temple never was not destroyed. It was an eternal temple like the Third Temple will be built when the Messiah will come. Chapter Vaetchanan interest for eternal salvation and completed.

Chapter Vaetchanan related to the Haftarah of Comfort and to Tu B'Av. All are dealing with the big rise after the decline of Tisha B'Av, the true redemption completed by the Messiah.
