The 16 expressions of forgiveness

The 16 different expressions of forgiveness, extended explanation. Translation by Rabbi Mendy Greenstein  Kapara - atonement, “atone for your nation Israel. כפרה - כפר לעמך ישראל . When you are in debt to get forgiven for it you need to give a כופר נפש , a payment of your soul. This is  judgment that descends upon you and a difficulty you go through in order to atone. A direct exchange for atonement all at once. Thus, on Yom “Kippurim” we ask for complete forgiveness in the merit the five עינוים afflictions we subject ourselves to.  Slicha - forgiveness, by the golden calf, “and Hashem says, I have forgiven, as you said” סליחה - ויאמר ה׳ סלחתי כדבריך .

If Avraham was beyond the mazal already, this would not have mattered.(Even with his name change where he was told - "leave behind your astrology", it was that the mazal of "Avraham" would have children even if the name "Avram" wouldn't.) Under the mazal,...

Yakov said to Eisav כה אמר עבדך יעקב. - the word כ״ה hints to the acceptance of  מלכות שמים in the 25 letters of the pasuk שמע ישראל, the concept of עבדך. We say "listen ישראל,"  like it says in this pasuk, "thus says Yakov.״ He then says עם לבן גרתי I lived with Lavan, גרתי גימט׳ תרי״ג, this refers to the second paragraph of Shma, והיה the acceptance of the מצוות.  This is like our sages said about Shma, why do we preface the first paragraph of Shma to the second? To first accept upon yourself the rule of heaven and afterwards the rule of the מצוות. Ohr Hatorah Vayishlach, Mamer Im Lavan Garti
