אות א הלכה א הלכות עירובי תחומין כשמניחין עירוב דהיינו מזון שתי סעודות מותר לילך ממקום העירוב אלפיים אמה לכל רוח נמצא שהילוך של שבת תלוי בסעודה של שבת. וזה מבואר בדברי רבינו נ"י. במאמר המדבר ממחלוקת על פסוק בקמים עלי מרעים תשמענה אזני וכו' (סימן רע"ז) מבואר שם שעיקר הילוך שבת שתלוי באכילה של שבת בבחינת דוק בככי ותשכח בנגרי עיין שם היטב. ועל כן תקנו חז"ל שמקום הסעודה קורם שמשם מותר לילך תחום שבת. כי עיקר ההילוך תלוי בסעודה כנ"ל עיין שם: הלכות תחומין ועירובי תחומין.
Therefore we complete the Torah then and call all of Yisrael — the essential tikkun is through the N'kudah (= the entirety of Torah completed then). Each person of Yisrael receives his N'kudah from Torah → it illuminates in all of Yisrael, each in his fellow → the tikkun of the entire year is completed. Therefore the simchah is exceedingly great: all the N'kudos of all of Yisrael illuminate then, each in the other → the light increases more and more through the collective illumination of N'kudos one into another → the simchah grows immensely. All the N'kudos are in the aspect of tzadik — and by the tzadik is the essential simchah: "Or tzadikim yismach" — "The light of the tzadikim rejoices" (Mishlay 13); "Simchu tzadikim baHashem" — "Rejoice, tzadikim, in Hashem" (Tehillim 97); "viTzadikim yism'chu ya'altzu" — "And the tzadikim shall rejoice and exult" (Tehillim 68); "Or zarua laTzaddik ul'yishray laiv simchah" — "Light is sown for the tzadik, and for the upright of heart — simchah" — Amain v'Amain. 16 This takes place on Sh'mini Atzeres (Simchas Torah) — the conclusion and end of all the Yamim Tovim. All the tikkun of Rosh HaShanah and Yom HaKipurim is completed in Sh'mini Atzeres. Therefore it is called Atzeres — a term of asaifah [gathering]: it gathers and assembles all the tikkunim made throughout the year (especially the Yamim Tovim, Rosh HaShanah, and Yom HaKipurim) — all is gathered in Sh'mini Atzeres where all tikkunim are completed. It is the finale of Sukkos — the last Regel called Chag Ha'Asif T'kufas HaShanah — "the festival of the ingathering, the circuit of the year" — encompassing the entire year. 15 It emerges that walking on Shabbos depends on the meals of Shabbos. And this is explained in the words of Rabbainu, of blessed memory, in the teaching that discusses machlo’kes [dispute], on the verse “When evildoers rise against me, my ears shall hear” (siman 277). It is explained there that the main walking of Shabbos depends on the eating of Shabbos, in the aspect of “dok b’chakay v’sishkach b’nagray” [check the teeth and you will find in the legs] — see there well. And therefore our Sages, of blessed memory, established that the place of the meal determines the location from which one may walk the t’chum Shabbos [Shabbos boundary]. For the main walking depends on the meal, as above — see there.
This is what the Sages said (Megillah, ch. "HaKoarai Omaid") regarding Kri'as HaTorah: "Hanay sh'loshah, chamishah, shiv'ah — k'neged Bircas Kohanim" — "These three, five, seven — correspond to Bircas Kohanim." The essential Kri'as HaTorah b'tzibbur is to draw and illuminate the holy N'kudah where the holy love dwells → through this, shivray Luchos are rectified. This is the aspect of Bircas Kohanim (as explained at length above). Therefore we say Bircas Kohanim after Bircas HaTorah every day — for the essential tikkun is in the aspect of Bircas Kohanim: arousing the holy love dwelling near the holy N'kudah drawn through Kri'as HaTorah — through which everything is rectified. 17
