In Elokim’s creation, both above and below, including both those who act and those who are acted upon; whether HaShem/Elokim;s Kingdom is recognized or not, however, obviously depends completely on the deeds of man in the world below.

Among thw things that one must understand is the concept that HaShem/Elokim is King over all His creation. Namely that HaShem/Elokim(s) existence is not dependent upon anything else that exists, and neither is HaShem/Elokim(s) existence comparable to anything else.

The two obligations that we must fullfill everyday are thr recital of the Shema and the daily prayer service. When the Holy Temple (Beit ha-Mikdash ) stood, the daily and additional sacrifices were also included among the daily observances.

When one stands in awe before HaShem’s, Greatness, they are purified of the darkness associated with their physical body, and is enveloped by the Divine Presence. The greater this awe, the greater the purification and envelopment. Feeling awe of HaShem is particularly important while studying Torah and performing mitzvots, for the learning and observances cannot serve their ultimate purpose without it.

The study of Torah is an absolutely necessary matter, for without it, one cannot do what one is supposed to do, how can one do it? In addition, however, Torah study in its own right is an end itself, for it plays a very large role in bringing all beings to perfection.

Serving Elokim involves two elements: study and observance. Observances are divided into four categories: those that are continuous and constant; those that are performed once a day or a fixed number of times per day; that are periodic; those are occasional or circumstantial. Continuous observances are those which are incumbent upon mankind at all times, such as the fearand love of Elokim/HaShem. Periodic observances include matters that must be observed at specific times, such as Shabbat observance and the Holy days. Circumstantial observances are those which depend on events and situations. Thus, for example, one can fill the commandment of separating the dough offering (challah) only when one bakes.

Another difference between Moshe and all other prophets was that all others could not voluntarily initiate a prophetic vision, but could only do so when Elokim willed to bring His Influence to bear on them. Moshe, on the other hand, could do so at will. He was given the ability to bind himself to Elokim whenever necessary, and thus experience a revelation. This is what Elokim meant when He said of Moshe (Numbers 12:7), “He is trusted in all My house.” Elokim likewise told Moshe (Exodus 33:19), “I will make all My good pass before you.”
