Shemos – Ha’boim Yasreish Yaackov

The Mystical meaning of – Why Mitzvos are called peiros – fruits? The Jewish soul is fertile soil for the G-dly seedling “the mitzvos” to take root and to sprout forth their infinite spiritual  light.  The exile also called a planting were we as Jews are planted and seemingly decaying but in truth this serves as preparation for the greatest  growth and development.

Vayechi – Osri Lagefen

The blessing of Yaakov to Yehuda that he will wash is clothing with wine is alluding to the days of Moshiach when our performance of Mitzvos will be in its perfected state. The garments are the mitzvos that garb the Soul in G-Dly light. The wine is referring to our innate love for G-D that is hidden in the recesses of  our hearts that we can reveal only by squezing the ego. With this wine we wash our mitzvos enabling them to shine their holy light on to our Neshamah.
