- Different levels of the Shechina
- Din is also Torah
- Advantage if there are ten people
Brochos 6a Lines 39 - 42
Two questions we left off with
- The Gemora asks: If we know that the Shechina descends when one, two or three people are studying Torah, why is another verse required to teach us that the Shechina comes down when ten people are davening. We asked: Perhaps tefillah is different than Torah?
- The Gemora answered: Ten people has an added advantage that the Shechina comes down before the ten are gathered; by three people, the shechina waits for them. The Rashba asks from the Gemora 6b that states that Hashem gets angry if He comes to a Beis Hakneses and ten people aren't there. How can the two Gemoros be reconciled?
