Shlach - Finding Hashem in the Pause


What was at the root of the sin of the spies? Why do so many of the ego's wiles center around impatience? If Hashem gave atonement to the Jewish people for their crying over the fear of entering Israel, why did they all die in the wilderness? Should we be waiting for Moshiach, or demanding Moshiach now? What is the concept of waiting in the story of Yosef, where Yaakov waited to see how the dreams would unfold? Why did Hashem wait until Yom Kippur to forgive the Jewish people for the sin of the spies? What is the idea of waiting for 40 years in the wilderness, and how does that relate to finding Hashem in the pause, or in the waiting? What is the difference between Mind and Heart?
