??? ???? ????? ??? ? – ??? ??? ????

?? ???’ ?????? ???? ?????’ ???? ???? ??? ?????

The son of Ravina would engage in fasts (occasional dream fasts) all year except for Shavous.

( Perek ??? ?????, Pesachim) (see there)

It implies that a dream fast (to nullify a bad dream) would not occur then, as you can’t afflict yourself on Shavous (Maharil, Magaen Avos 604).

It appears to me the reason, as it is written in Toras Chaim that the Preistly Blessing that has a aspect of Prophecy in it nullifies a bad dream, as a dream is only 1/60th of prophecy. therefore we say ????? ?? ???? ??? ???.

On the Yom Tov of Shavous however which has got a greater elevation then Prophecy, it has a aspect of the Husband(Hashem)and the wife (Yisroel) marrying.(??? ??? ???? ?????????). Moshe Rabbenu being called ??? ??? ?????, therefore you dont need to fast for Talmud Torah.

It says in Chronicles 10, seventy souls descended to Egypt,?????? ??? ???? ????? ??????? this is Roshei Teves, ?????? (prophets).

Thus they were only prophets and no more– ????? ?? ????-do not harm my prophets (psalms).

However after they were elevated to the aspect of ???’ ?????? ???? ????? ????–Hashem will make you like a multitude of stars in the Heaven, which is the Roshei Teves ??? ??? ???? ?????????.

They became the ????? (cluster of grapes- describing a person with loads of Torah) mentioned at the end of Talmud Sotah.
