בְּטַח בַּיְיָ וַעֲשֵׂה טוֹב שְׁכָן אֶרֶץ וּרְעֵה אֱמוּנָה (תהילים ל״ז:ג׳):

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
“*B’tach b’Hashem* (Trust in God) and do good; dwell in the land and shepherd faith.” (Psalms 37:3)

הִנֵּה הַכְּלָל – שֶׁצָּרִיךְ כָּל אָדָם לִרְאוֹת, שֶׁמִּצִּדּוֹ לֹא יִהְיֶה עִכּוּב מְשִׁיחָא, דְּהַיְנוּ לַעֲשׂוֹת תְּשׁוּבָה שְׁלֵמָה וּלְתַקֵּן מַעֲשָׂיו.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
Behold! The rule is that each person must make sure that he is not responsible for delaying Mashiach. That is, he has to repent fully and rectify his ways.

[Likutei Moharan 79:1:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/79:1:3)

וּבְכָל צַדִּיק וְצַדִּיק, מִי שֶׁהוּא צַדִּיק בֶּאֱמֶת, יֵשׁ בּוֹ הִתְגַּלּוּת מָשִׁיחַ, וְאַף־עַל־פִּי שֶׁאֵין בּוֹ הִתְגַּלּוּת מָשִׁיחַ, יֵשׁ בּוֹ מִדָּה שֶׁל מָשִׁיחַ, שֶׁהוּא בְּחִינַת מֹשֶׁה, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב בַּזֹּהַר הַקָּדוֹשׁ (בראשית דף כה:): מָשִׁיחַ דָּא מֹשֶׁה, כְּמוֹ שֶׁאֲפָרֵשׁ.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
Each tzaddik, the more righteous he is, [the more] he is a manifestation of Mashiach. And even if he is not a manifestation of Mashiach, he possesses the aspect of Mashiach. As I will explain, this is the aspect of Moshe, as it is written in the holy *Zohar:* Mashiach is Moshe (Zohar I, 25b) .


###### Likutei Moharan 79:1:4
[Likutei Moharan 79:1:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/79:1:4)

כִּי מֹשֶׁה מָסַר נַפְשׁוֹ בְּעַד יִשְׂרָאֵל, כִּי יָדַע שִׁפְלוּתוֹ בֶּאֱמֶת, וְיָדַע חֲשִׁיבוּת וּגְדֻלּוֹת יִשְׂרָאֵל, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב (במדבר י״ב:ג׳): וְהָאִישׁ מֹשֶׁה עָנָו מְאֹד מִכֹּל הָאָדָם, וּמֵחֲמַת זֶה מָסַר נַפְשׁוֹ וְחִיּוּתוֹ בַּעֲדָם. לָכֵן מִי שֶׁהוּא צַדִּיק בֶּאֱמֶת, וְיוֹדֵעַ שִׁפְלוּתוֹ, וְיַכִּיר חֲשִׁיבוּת יִשְׂרָאֵל, יָכוֹל לִמְסֹר אֶת נַפְשׁוֹ בַּעֲדָם.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
Moshe sacrificed his soul for the Jewish people. This is because he truly recognized his own lowliness, and he also recognized the importance and greatness of Israel, as it is written (Numbers 12:3), “The man Moshe was extremely humble, more so than any other man.” Because of this he sacrificed his soul and vitality for them. Therefore, someone who is a genuine tzaddik, who knows his own lowliness and also the importance of Israel, can sacrifice his soul for their benefit.


###### Likutei Moharan 79:2:1
[Likutei Moharan 79:2:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/79:2:1)

וְאֵימָתַי יָכוֹל לִרְאוֹת שִׁפְלוּתוֹ, בְּשַׁבָּת. כִּי בְּשַׁבָּת נֶאֱמַר (שמות ט״ז:כ״ט): רְאוּ כִּי ה' נָתַן לָכֶם אֶת הַשַּׁבָּת; כִּי שַׁבָּת הוּא שִׁין בַּת, שִׁי"ן – תְּלַת גְּוָנִין דְּעֵינָא, בַּ"ת – בַּת עַיִן, וְעַל כֵּן בְּשַׁבָּת יָכוֹל לִרְאוֹת שִׁפְלוּתוֹ.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
**2. {“See that God has given you the Sabbath; that is why I gave you on Friday the food of two days. Every person shall abide below his place; no man shall go out of his place on the seventh day”** (Exodus 16:29)**.}** When can a person recognize his own lowliness? On Shabbat. For of Shabbat it is said: “See that God has given you the Shabbat.” ShaBbaT is *Shin BaT*. *Shin* is the three colors of the eye; *BaT* is the *bat* (pupil) of the eye (Tikkuney Zohar #70, p.126b). Thus on Shabbat he is able to recognize his lowliness.


###### Likutei Moharan 79:2:2
[Likutei Moharan 79:2:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/79:2:2)

וְזֶהוּ: שְׁבוּ אִישׁ תַּחְתָּיו, הַנֶּאֱמַר בְּשַׁבָּת (שם), הַיְנוּ תַּחַת מַדְרֵגָתוֹ, שָׁפָל מִמַּה שֶּׁהוּא. וְעַל כָּל פָּנִים אֶל יֵצֵא אִישׁ מִמְּקוֹמוֹ, הַיְנוּ לְמַעְלָה מִמַּדְרֵגָתוֹ, כְּגוֹן עוֹשֶׂה מַעֲשֶׂה זִמְרִי וּמְבַקֵּשׁ שָׂכָר כְּפִינְחָס (סוטה כב:). וְאֵימָתַי יָכוֹל לִרְאוֹת שִׁפְלוּתוֹ בְּשַׁבָּת, כְּשֶׁעוֹשֶׂה תְּשׁוּבָה שְׁלֵמָה, שֶׁהִיא שַׁבָּת. כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב (דברים ל): וְשַׁבְתָּ עַד ה' אֱלֹקֶיךָ, אַתְוָן דְּדֵין כְּאַתְוָן דְּדֵין.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
This is the meaning of that which was said concerning Shabbat: “Every person shall abide below his place”—i.e., below his level, lower than he actually is. At the very least “no man shall go out of his place”—i.e., reaching beyond his level; for example, by doing as Zimri, and asking for the reward of Pinchas (Sotah 22b). And when on Shabbat can he recognize his lowliness? When he does complete *TeShuVah* (repentance), which is ShaBbaT, as it is written (Deuteronomy 30:2), “Then *ShaVTa* (you shall return) to God your Lord.” Their letters are the same.

כִּי יֵשׁ שְׁנֵי תְּשׁוּבוֹת. אַחַת: יֵשׁ בְּנֵי אָדָם שֶׁעוֹשִׂין מַשָּׂא וּמַתָּן וְהוֹלְכִין בְּהַבְלֵי עוֹלָם הַזֶּה, וּבְאֶמְצָעוּת נוֹפֵל לוֹ הִרְהוּרֵי תְּשׁוּבָה, וְאַחַר־כָּךְ חוֹזֵר לִמְקוֹמוֹ הָרִאשׁוֹן. וְזֶהוּ בְּחִינוֹת (יחזקאל א׳:י״ד): הַחַיּוֹת רָצוֹא וָשׁוֹב, שֶׁאֵין לוֹ נַיְחָא, כִּי פַּעַם טָמֵא וּפַעַם טָהוֹר, כָּשֵׁר וּפָסוּל, אָסוּר וּמֻתָּר, וְזֶהוּ בְּחִינוֹת שֵׁשֶׁת יְמֵי חוֹל. אֲבָל תְּשׁוּבָה שְׁלֵמָה הוּא בְּחִינוֹת שַׁבָּת, שֶׁיֵּשׁ לוֹ נַיְחָא. כִּי בָּא שַׁבָּת – בָּא מְנוּחָה; שֶׁיֵּשׁ לוֹ מְנוּחָה מִכֹּל וָכֹל, וְנִדְחֶה הָרַע לְגַמְרֵי.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
**3.** Now, there are two types of repentance. One is that of a person who is occupied in business and involved in the transient things of this world. In the midst of this it occurs to him to repent, but he afterwards returns to his original condition. This is as in “The living creatures ran and returned” (Ezekiel 1:14). He has no calm—being at one time impure, then at another time pure; kosher then unkosher; forbidden then permitted. This corresponds to the six days of the week. In contrast, complete repentance is the aspect of Shabbat. He has calm, because: When Shabbat comes, rest comes (cf. Rashi on Genesis 2:2). He has absolute rest, and the evil is repelled entirely.


###### Likutei Moharan 79:3:2
[Likutei Moharan 79:3:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/79:3:2)

וְתֵדַע נֶאֱמָנָה, שֶׁתְּשׁוּבָה שְׁלֵמָה הוּא בְּחִינוֹת שַׁבָּת, כִּי אִיתָא בְּמִדְרָשׁ רַבָּה (בראשית פרשה כב): כְּשֶׁפָּגַע אָדָם הָרִאשׁוֹן לְקַיִן, וְשָׁאַל לוֹ: מַה נַּעֲשָׂה בְּדִינְךָ, וְהֵשִׁיב לוֹ שֶׁעָשָׂה תְּשׁוּבָה. אָמַר: אִם כָּךְ תַּקִּיף חֵילָא דִּתְשׁוּבָה, פָּתַח וְאָמַר: מִזְמוֹר שִׁיר לְיוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
You can know for certain that complete repentance corresponds to Shabbat, since we find in *Midrash Rabbah* (Bereishit Rabbah 22:13): When the First Man encountered Kayin and asked him, “What was the outcome of your case?” [Kayin] answered that he repented [and was pardoned]. “If so, then the power of repentance is indeed great,” said [Adam, after which] he proclaimed: “A psalm, a song for the Shabbat day.”


###### Likutei Moharan 79:3:3
[Likutei Moharan 79:3:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/79:3:3)

וְלִכְאוֹרָה, מָה עִנְיַן שַׁבָּת אֵצֶל תְּשׁוּבָה. אֲבָל לְפִי דְּבָרֵינוּ מְכֻוָּן הֵיטֵב, כִּי כְּשֶׁעוֹשֶׂה תְּשׁוּבָה שְׁלֵמָה וְנִדְחֶה הָרָע לְגַמְרֵי, וְיֵשׁ לוֹ נַיְחָא – זֶהוּ בְּחִינוֹת שַׁבָּת, וּבְחִינַת שַׁדַּי, וּבְחִינַת מט"ט. כִּי מַה הוּא שַׁדַּי – שֶׁאָמַר לְעוֹלָמוֹ דַּי (חגיגה יב ב"ר פ' מו). וּבְחִינוֹת שַׁבָּת גַּם כֵּן כָּךְ, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב (בראשית ב׳:ב׳): וַיִּשְׁבֹּת בַּיּוֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִי מִכָּל מְלַאכְתּוֹ, וְאָמַר דַּי.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
On the face of it, what does Shabbat have to do with repentance? However, based on what we have said the parallel is precise. For when a person repents completely and repels evil entirely, and so has calm—this is the aspect of Shabbat, *Shadai* and Metat. What is the meaning of Shadai?—that He said to His world, “*Dai!* (Enough!)” (Chagigah 12a). This relates to Shabbat as well, as it is written (Genesis 2:2), “He ceased on the seventh day from all His work” and said “*Dai!*”

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
And Metat, too, corresponds to *Shadai,* as is known.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
This is as it is written in the holy *Zohar* (I, 27a) concerning the verse: “He took the human and placed him in the Garden of Eden…” (Genesis 2:15) .

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
“He took”—from where did He take him? He took him from his four elements…. When a person repents and engages in Torah study, the Blessed Holy One takes him from there. Concerning this it is said: “from there it splits off” (Genesis 2:10). He separates his soul from their temptations… to tend [the Garden] through the positive commandments and to guard it with the prohibitive commandments…. If he violates the Torah, he drinks from the bitterness of the Tree of Evil, which is the Evil Inclination. And about all his limbs, which are formed of the four elements, it is said: “They made their lives bitter” (Exodus 1:14)—with the bitterness of the Tree. … But if he repents, it is said of him: “God showed him a tree”—the Tree of Life—through which “the water turned sweet” (ibid. 15:25). This is Moshe-Mashiach, of whom it is said: “with the *mateh* (staff) of God in my hand” (ibid. 17:9). *MaTeh* is MeTat, from whom comes life and also death.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
This is as we have explained, that when one repents fully, evil is entirely repelled and good prevails. This is the aspect of Moshe-Mashiach, of whom it is said: “with the *mateh* of God in my hand”—i.e., he had the power to turn from evil to good. *MaTeh* is MeTat, from whom comes life and also death. For Metat corresponds to the Mishnah, in that the six weekdays correspond to the six orders of the Mishnah, which include the six categories of kosher and unkosher, pure and impure, forbidden and permitted, as is known.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
so that, occasionally, they happen to have thoughts of repentance and begin to worship God a bit, only to afterwards slacken off and return to their original condition; and still later are again stirred only to again fall, changing each time from good to bad and from bad to good—this repentance corresponds to the six weekdays, which are the categories of kosher and unkosher, etc. This is because such a person is similarly at one time kosher, and at another time unkosher; at one time impure, and at another time pure, etc., and so he has no calm.

This is the aspect of *Shadai,* and he has absolute calm. And Metat, too, is the aspect of *Shadai*. Although we said the Metat is the Mishnah, that is the case during the week. But “when Shabbat comes, rest comes,” and “He ceased… from all His work”—this being the aspect of *Shadai*. {Then Metat is encompassed in *Shadai* .} We derive from this that by repenting fully, which, as we said, is the aspect of Shabbat, a person can consequently recognize his own lowliness, as explained above.

**dwell in the land—**This is the aspect of the soul, as is said: “my soul like the land” (Psalms 143:6). In other words, the soul has calm because he has repented fully, as explained above. And when one repents fully, it is the aspect of Shabbat. One is then able to recognize one’s own lowliness and the importance and greatness of Israel. And this is:

**5.** This relates above, to the topic of lowliness, which is “Every person shall abide below his place”—i.e ., one should look upon oneself as lowly, below one’s [actual] place and level.

I again heard regarding this topic in [Rebbe Nachman’s] name, may it be for a blessing, that by his meriting to truly recognize his own lowliness, no one will be able to push him out of his place—i.e., infringe on his livelihood, God forbid. On account of his being genuinely humble and lowly, he acquires the aspect of “nothingness,” and so is not at all ‘below the place.’ Therefore, certainly no one can push him from his place.

This is the meaning of “Every person shall abide below his place; no man shall go out of his place.” By attaining lowliness—which is “Every person shall abide below his place,” always considering himself lowly, below his [actual] place and level—consequently, “no man shall go out of his place.” No man will be able to make him go out of his place—i.e., push him from his livelihood, God forbid, as explained above.

This is as our Sages, of blessed memory, taught: Whoever enters his neighbor’s occupation, it is as if he had relations with a married woman (cf. Sanhedrin 81a). Since he [competitively] enters his neighbor’s profession and wants to push him out of his place and livelihood, it shows that he wants to blemish the aforementioned aspect of lowliness, the aspect of “Every person shall abide below his place.” Therefore, it is as if he had relations with *eishet ish* (a married woman). The letters of *eISheT* are acronym for “*Shvu Ish Tachtav* (Every person shall abide below in his place).” He blemishes the aspect of humility and lowliness, which is “Every person shall abide below his place” in order that “no man shall go out of his place,” as explained above.
