In this first shiur of the *My Generation* series, we begin exploring Rav Kook’s *Meimor HaDor*, found in *Ikvei HaTzon*.
We discuss the historical context in which Rav Kook was writing and how he saw light emerging from darkness — even in the spiritual confusion of his generation.
Together we learn the prologue to *Ikvei HaTzon*, uncovering why Rav Kook chose this name, and begin the essay with its opening theme: **the great, subconscious pain of the generation.**
Rav Kook teaches that this deep, unspoken pain is not only psychological but cosmic — a pain that transcends language, reaching toward redemption. He speaks to the struggle of our times and even hints to the inner turmoil that will surface near the end of days.

Daniel’s Vision: The Shattering of the Statue, War, Iran and the Light of Redemption
In this shiur, we explore Daniel Chapter 2—the vision of the great statue representing the empires of history, shattered by a humble stone—and ask: What does this prophecy teach us about today’s war, the role of Am Yisrael, and the unfolding of redemption in our time?
Drawing on Rav Kook’s Orot HaMilchama, we dive into the spiritual psychology of war—not as chaos alone, but as a deep awakening of the soul. War shakes the world, but it also shakes us inwardly, revealing the cracks in false structures and the hidden light within.
We also explore how Hashem guides history through both miracle (nes) and nature (teva)—what Rav Kook calls or haganuz, the concealed light—and how the long arc of Jewish history is filled with Divine orchestration, even when it’s hard to see.
This class weaves together prophecy, psychology, Rav Kook, and current events to offer a deeper understanding of where we are, what’s breaking, and what’s being born.
