This text-based class is the second in a series on Likkutei Torah Maamar "Atem Nitzavim," a discourse said by the Alter Rebbe on Shabbos Parshas Nitzavim, 28 Elul, 5662/1802, and was presented by Rabbi YY Jacobson on Thursday, 18 Elul, 5785, September 11, 2025, Parshas Ki Savo, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY.

This class on the second chapter of the discourse discusses covenantal love vs. transactional love, and why people make a "covenant of love," inviting the connection to graduate to a space that is supra-rational. He discusses the love of David and Yonoson, and the love that Moshe engendered after the sin of the golden calf. We discuss the meaning of love that flows from your truest essence and becomes the most exquisite extension of your self-love.
