Our Parsha "Vayigash,"-"Approach" this Shabbos is a very interesting one,as it is almost like a fore-runner of Mashiach's time,when the split between our people will come to an end.We can always "Approach " HaShem for all things but we need to make peace with our fellow.I am referring to the split between the Southern tribes of Judah and the Northern Tribes-sometimes refered to as Ephraim (son of Yosef).When Ya'akov called his sons together to Bless them (Bereishit 49:1) and told them that 'They must Gather together so he could tell them of the End Of Days,there is a hint within his words that suggests that if all the sons of Jacob come together,the End Of Days and the Redemption would start.This is a major way to bring Mashiach.After King Solomon,his son Rehoboam ruled Judah and it was then that the Southern tribes of Judah split from the Northern tribes who then went under Jeroboam ben Nebat .This split is what will rectified in Mashiach's time.So Judah and Joseph represent the two opposing parts of what should be our single nation of Israel. This is what HaShem is waiting for.For us to "Vayigash - "approach" our fellow Jew and not look down on him and by making Shalom-Peace with our fellow,we can then "Vayigash-Approach" HaShem as one.Taking the first three words of this Sedra ,"Vayigash Eilaiv Yehudah," we Gematrically get 396.At the beginning of Bereishit,in the first verse,the word "HaShamaim,"-"Heaven," comes to 395.HaShem,the Aleph for "Elokim," is 1.With HaShem being felt in Shamaim (Heaven),if we take this "1" and add it to the word "HaShamaim" we get the Gematrical value of 396.The same as the Gematrical value of the first three words of this Shabbos Parsha.So ,this means that if all our people approach each other as one,we can become worthy of 'being with' and "Vayigash" -'Approaching" HaShem in Shamaim.The hidden way I see that the Hebrew in this Sedra is phrased,can mean "Vayigash Eilaiv Yehudah," - " And Approached Him Judah(Yehudah)."The Him could mean "HaShem.That HaShem Approached' Judah because Judah had come to be at peace and one with his brother.The 'him' could also refer to Joseph,that Joseph would 'approach' Yehudah for peace and oneness.Even though it does mean that Judah (Yehudah) approached Joseph the fact is,that if we all approach "Vayigash" our fellow Jew and become one,at peace,then HaShem will 'Approach' us and we can again be at one with HaShem as we were in Gan Eiden and so,we will all be Blessed with Shamaim with HaShem.Let us all be one Nation with a common goal to serve HaShem sincerely,the Torah way we are supposed to and then we can all "Vayigash" - "Approach" HaShem as one.Let us all try do our best just to follow HaShem and His Torah and do Hashem's Mitzvot and make this Shabbos a very special one by really trying to keep HaShem's Holy Day so we can be close to HaShem in love.Please let us all try to put a smile within HaShem and a warmth and feeling of love by giving HaShem what He asks of us,as if we truly look around,we can really see that HaShem gives us so much beauty.I wish You HaShem,with the deepest love,a beautiful Holy Shabbos with love and I wish you all a beautiful Holy Shabbos with love.
