Dream Interpretation

 

In this weeks Torah reading,Beha'aloscha, 6-18-22,  Hashem (G-d) says that “He makes known in a dream I shall speak with him” or esvadeh bachalom adabeir bo. See Numbers 12:6. Prophecy comes in dreams. The Gematria of this phrase is 782. I looked up my notes and it also equals akeidas yitzchok , or the binding  of Isaac. What’s the connection ? Based on the Ramban’s commentary at Genesis 18:1, where Nachmanides writes that every time there is a sighting of an angel or speaking of an angel, its all a dream. This is even alluded to at Genesis 18:1, where every last letter from the word yoshev through kechom spells the word ba’chalom, or in a dream. The meeting of the angels with Abraham, foretelling him and Sara of a son being born to them was a dream, and the binding of Isaac was a dream, based on above findings. Dreams are powerful. We need to read the message God is sending us and take appropriate action. Spiritual meets the physical through the medium of dreams.

     
We have additional findings based on the revealed and hidden letters of the phrase , bachalom. The full gematria of that phrase is 1008 (bais, cheit, lamed, vav, mem). Another phrase with same number is darosh darosh, or fully investigate, see Leviticus 10:16. Another phrase can be found at Psalm 113:4, where it says, ram al kol goyim, Hashem, al hashamayim kevodo, or , the Lord is high above all nations, and His glory above the heavens. These findings teach us that we must study the fine details of our dreams because they are messages from the One Above.
