MIN TORAH PORTION - PARASHAT CHAYEI SARAH פרשת חיי שרה — 20

oh you don't hear me now you hear me okay shalom shalom from israel hello everybody uh first please uh help me to to spread this uh lesson portion lesson that i'm we're going to do um so please share on facebook on whatsapp i'm telling them what whatever you can to spread the message of uh i hope i pray that i could bring you the message of god from israel so today we're going to speak about the portion of um the life of salah and actually personally i i really love uh the i really love salah i really feel connected to the to to her because i feel that she is like she's a character that ver that she's a very important person in the story of a vlam i feel that sometimes we are forgetting because we are talking about ava'am it's hack and jacob i isaac and jacob so we for we are forgetting that the power of the woman that that wasn't uh in the story and i feel that sarah she is a very important character and actually this portion it's it's called hayes but actually in this portion we're going to start the first uh verse saying that sarai's passed away and avon really said and it's and it's something that um that we can see uh in the in the first verses we're talking about the chapter and uh first um [Music] yeah 23 and we're seeing that um that that the bible said that the life of salah was um years and seven years so we can see and all for good this is like how it's rotten uh and we're asking ourselves why do uh it will be why to write it in indeed in this way like to say 100 and plus seven plus seven like like why to separate and why all for good so uh one of the of the explanations in the jewish explanation is that whole ur life was for good and this is like uh a deep message that each one of uh of of the part of the of her life was for good today uh after we we just say we're going to say goodbye to sarah but we're not going to say because it's not like the the final goodbye because we're going to see something else in this portion about salah i want to focus on a different story um maybe eliezer by the way uh botsa maybe will join us soon i don't know but i want to to focus on on another story in this portion a story that appeared um in the in the middle of the of the portion um about eliezer the the one that uh a low gaia a low alien hello mary um it's the one that worked for is it's kind of a slave of of islam and ivan sent him to find um [Music] a future bride for its for isaac and is going to the well where uh the people like most of the women coming out to uh to bring water to to their house and eliezer uh the slave of of he said he prayed to god and telling god god please help me how how can i know with the right uh oh i said here let's see okay so i will i will keep to telling the story how are you we are live hello you can see over here i will show you a bit of the view over here it's a very very very spiritual city um i was i was born over here um so it was uh beautiful to be here in shabbat and to share with you also these views brother and friends brothers and sisters so i was in the middle of the of the story of uh of the well of eliezer and uh i would i would say like just what's happened and then i know that you wanna you told me that you wanna say something about it so i just i will tell you the simple story so elias are coming to the well and he asking god how can i know who is the the future bride for for isaac how can i know please please give me a sign god telling him i would grieve i will bring you two signs the first one is that uh the future bride if you will ask her to bring you water she will give not only for you she's not she's not gonna going to bring to bring water only for you she will bring water to your camels too and the second sign that she will be from the house of avon and then eliezer see uh the signs and a leather i'm what do you think about these stories yes um a lot um first of all let's speak you know eliezer you know that's also my name so so say something about eliezer ellie that's god helps it's god is my help and eliezer it's mean god my god no as there was help yes so god is god is the help and and this place god also gives us this strength of knowing how to be helpers in this world and eliezer was a very unique uh servant of abraham he was he was he was supposed to his daughter was supposed to marry isaac in the beginning and he um um sacrificed his own interest over here for the will of his um um his of his teacher his master um and we could see also something and also beautiful about eliezer that until he meets until he meets um uh rebecca so he's called the slave he's always called the slave the slave of abraham and when he when she approaches him as as as sir as as lord as mr you know and she approaches him and suddenly not as a slave as so as as as a mister from then the torah always calls mentions eliezer as a man ish beginning in the beginning it's evid evidence is slave then it's ish and but you could see that he's very dynamic so as a true servant we need to be dynamic it's not oh i know the truth i'm i'm i'm the influence over here i will tell you what to do no you need to be dynamic with the situations we learn from him all the time you know that also our position changes why because in this position he knows to be he now needs to test her you know first he went only with the orders now suddenly he saw that once it was like there's a potential over here one's a glad tesla so he needs to be now the man and then when he goes and meets her family her parents um her brother and her father he comes back to be a slave because because he wasn't in a place of analyzing them because he already knew that she's right so he needs to do his mission yeah like you say when when we read the bible we need to be very careful for the small details like how uh how the bible called for someone like you you say that when when at the beginning they called him flame after they called yeah and then a man ish and then back to slav it's like is is like the atmosphere that he was uh in this moment and there was this mission exactly exactly exactly exactly now you could see something else so beautiful about rebecca about we've got first of all the word we've come the same letters of kieva of closeness and also we see next person that she goes and how does she know that she has twins she feels that that says that that is his next person that inside of her so it's so close that it's inside of her that's also the letters of the name kielva it means that she why the reason that she's so holy is that she she doesn't she doesn't separate herself from reality everything everything she feels from inside she doesn't she doesn't fake her feel or her feelings and that way she could be in a true way sensitive now i want to say one thing about another um character that that comes back allah in our portion through this situation and what is that character it's an animal what is the animal it's a camel yes brother yes yes a camel all the time she gives water to the camels and they mention all the time then when he comes when eliezer when the legend comes and meets the family he mentions the whole stories with all the details and says again camels and camels all the time you see camels and then also on rebecca and is on the way when she meets um isaac for our father first time what happens to her she falls off the camel again camel so you see in hebrew the word camel how do we write camo so the word gamal besides the word camo it has a meaning of what is it's like weeping when a person is addicted to someone to something so so it's weeping him you know from the addiction okay so so this is this is one thing that's true surely when we give a true charity to someone we don't create him also we don't create we don't make him dependent by us we also don't make him addicted to us you know at the true chair the true charity is a charity that that that helps people to win over the addictions yes brother we know so we know that when we see um a word that um that repeats in the persian all the time and in in this situation you say it's the the animal the camel in hebrew it's like to bring uh someone to give out of addictions out of addictions i just want to say that you said that when we see something it's kind of a message we need to to pay attention for something going back all the time it's not only about the the animal all right right right the animal symbolizes also we see that the camel is is is the animal of the desert is the animal of of of um of um journeys you know and and and this also symbolizes a lot the water because the water symbolizes the deepness the torah you know the the ability of of being built for long journeys in life so we need to have a very deep breath this deep breath needs to be filled with hair now you're drinking brother yeah with live water live water of true knowledge of knowledge of love not knowledge of faith not knowledge of closeness of to god to the creator and to humans and to the recreation and over here the last thing we could see also um with the camel with the word camo it's also rewarding it's it's too reward you know it's it's as so so this is another true uh way of of of doing charities of doing charity is when a person is in a place that he gives from himself and you you just give him the right feedback i don't know if if people here can understand i i really want you to understand all the people that sing seeing us right now how important is to read the bible in hebrew i don't know if if i could do like uh hebrew lessons to to all to all of you like because there is so many things here that we're talking only about the word gamal camel um there is so many secrets so much a secret behind it and and and and this is like for me it's a sign that we're uh the generation of redemption uh because we back to speak in hebrew so we in in one hand we need to be very careful because it's the the language of god but in the other hand we need to say thanks every day that we can understand all those things that in those days only the smart smart smart people could understand like we are just talking in a couple of minutes and it's amazing and there is so much it's beautiful it's so beautiful yes yes yes it's a beautiful it's um it's also a beautiful portion of our connection um to the land because um you know abraham you know it's important to say this that in the beginning and also the torah mentions this there's also the wars but there's also the story and why why are there specific details and in the beginning um um efron efron he was the owner of the property of of of of where our fathers and mothers are buried and and in marat and uh and and and uh and over there um he in the beginning want to give it to them to and free but the torah mentions the whole negotiation that actually abraham is negotiating to pay he's telling them in the beginning no it's all fine you know and then at the end he tells them you know okay you know what is what what is distance amount 400 shekel kiss if it was a very huge amount in those times okay if you're interested in the caves but it's not one the cave of the patrick's patrice the cave of the practice of the fathers exactly so you could call it enough ways yes uh i think maybe a year ago that uh it was like a politic political issue that uh trump say uh start to talk about uh the the control of israel in the uh judah scenario um so there was a lot of of of talking about if it's right or not but one of the things that i need to you need to understand that the cave of adam and eve the cave of abram saga all the fathers and the mothers may peace be in our and all of them i don't know all of our fathers respect the the truth they are very they buried there yes not like just a place that that you know like uh we just want like to take a land it's it's this is the place what we're reading right now and and he said we can see in the bible very clear that avraham is buying this place from a phone we can see like the everything that he's doing so i just want i wanted like the ball it's very good and and with that with that it's also very important because this gives us a very very deep connection also because we know that that that the torah exactly mentioned didn't want to show that abraham knew how to do business because actually it's it's he he he insisted to pay and and but it is to guarantee uh the belonging and this is this is something that's very important to know about the connection to the land over here we belong to the land it's not about ownership in terms of of of um of of control it's it's responsibility that the land will bring its presence to the whole world and that's our heritage and it's a heritage it's a heritage that has place for all the children's of the fathers but really that's the will of the fathers that's why our fathers insisted to do things in the right way that we could continue them in the right way i think that if there is something that's very special in the in the jewish faith that it's like the understanding that the land and the the the faith can walk together like it's not something that you you say um it's not a okay you understood what what i wanted to say and and jerusalem and and the israeli all the israeli land uh on the land of israel is something that have a deep connection to the faith there is things that you can do when you are not in israel and there is things that you have to do like like this year we are doing shemitah this is something that this is happening only in israel like shemitah the meaning of shemitah yeah the thing is that we can't uh sell uh and and buy and there's a lot of rules about fruits uh we need to give the the the main idea is like to bring to give the land uh time to to to rest and there is a lot of things behind it but this is the main idea and and there is a lot of things that that have connection to the land yes yes you know you know you know there is also something about what you said now could i make a then another idea for the portion about exactly what you said about the year of shemitah and you could do only in the land okay are you with it yes so he says so so here brother okay and friends they say in the beginning of the year of the of the year of sarah that when she passed away sarah our mother may peace be on her so she was 127. so the main uh um um scholar rashi thor skyler that lived thousand years ago that wrote the comments and the whole torah so he says that she was a hundred without scenes like 20 and 20 beautiful like seven okay so now i talked about it in the beginning yeah wow nice so could i so i'm sorry i wasn't here so i want to say something to relate to that and it relates to what you said now about about the seven yes because every seven years we could only do it in in the land of israel yes and and and over here you could see that the hundred yes is a century now we want to be in a place that that every stage in our life every generation that we go through would represent the the highlight of the century that we live in yes the highlight we we in our life we don't want to to you know to to be part of fashions that pass and and and but for us the place to do it and to and to express it is in the land of israel and that's why the beauty is seven okay then that's exactly what you said now about the shemitah amazing amen i want to share with you something that that i saw uh you hear me i'm with you brother i want to share with you something that i saw that i think that we didn't put enough attention to this story uh to this uh point um so as we know as as we spoke before earlier we're coming to the to the well and uh waiting for the signs of god the first one we said that is going to be that you will bring the water to his canal too um the second one is that she is going to be from the family of ivan so there is something really special that i saw in verse um [Music] not not 46 sorry um that we can see that when eliezer is asking her um if she can bring water to his camel uh to himself and then she's saying that she will bring water to his camel he understand that something is understanding that something happening here so he said all right there is there is a sign here this this is a miracle it's happening what god told me it's happening in front of my eyes and then is taking his jewelry and bring her is not waiting to the second sign he bring her her jewelry that this is like the way that that in those days um uh they was acting when they want to do a meeting between uh trying to for a future bride and uh um he's not waiting to the second sign bring her the the jewelry so this is a sign of of that he won't like to to to to ask her if she want to meet it's hack isaac and then he asked her where you live what is your family and i think when i read it i felt like there is like a deep sign here for us to understand what is to be a believer sometimes we need to wait for two signs but sometimes we need to get the first sign and then to act and the second sign will come after that we will act and this is like something that i when i saw it i i said all right now i start i'm starting to understand what is the the journey and and what is the movement that were that happening right now in israel when the israeli country rebuild so what's happened we saw a sign we came to israel and then all the other signs started to happen like when we won the wars when we uh got back jerusalem if we were waiting for all the signs it wasn't happening we need to see the first time and to go and to believe that the second sun will come and for me it was like something uh beautiful it's so beautiful it's so beautiful because again it's not it's not fighting reality and you could also see that um um you know there is a place of um like you said this is a movement of faith because because god always speaks to us and and through through nature uh through people um through ideas through emotions we only need to believe in the good second we stop believing in the good so we stop seeing the the the signs and and it's so beautiful what what you said over here is because because liza said it sounds such a good and he said okay with all the other issues we could deal now let's first of all give a true opportunity over here to to to to the good and i i just just came up to mind me when you spoke yes that i i feel and scientifically where the second sign is when she fell off the the camel when she saw isaac over there because always she served you know the hate and the camels and then what we spoke about but suddenly suddenly when she sees him you know it's already now it's already a totally different reality because in a true relationship you live inside the science that's why you need to have a true dialogue you're not separated but god speaks to us all the time in a place in an individual way but when we find our soul mate so god speaks to us through each other and that's that's the dialogue and over there we could help each other to give a true flat reflection to each other we could we could help each other you know to know exactly where we are you know and and and hello yeah okay better yes yes yes maybe so maybe that's the second sign huh maybe i i must say that most of the the the big and and the best things that happened happened in my life i don't know about you um it's happened when i was i built i just wha what i was walking with my heart like i didn't wait you know when i just did something because that's what i felt and then years later i said wow this decision was amazing like this yeah hey tell me hello shabbat shalom the second side [Laughter] all the time good signs that will bring everyone to the path of joy of love of blessings and everything and with everyone together thank you thank you so much thank you love you guys all right so i'm going to to read your question here um thank you elaine okay i see a guy is asking i want israel to build judea and samaria do you agree yeah of course we need to build everywhere it's not a politics it's it's it's it's our belief of course i disagree with with uh violence i i disagree with with anything that that that people are gonna uh get hurt uh but i can tell you from my perspective as a former idf uh captain that the the israeli uh idea the idea the israeli army is one of the the best armies in the world not only because we are have we have a strong army it's because that the people over there the people over there they're keeping uh for they keep they keep they are fighting not only because they want to fight they fighting with um what a second yeah that is gareth they are they don't forget that the the soldier they are not forgetting that there is uh people over there and we are keeping uh when we remember that we there is a uh with it we are a human and there is human over there too so uh i must say that everywhere that they go in judah and samaria even when we've been in a very hard situation and people's trying to attack us we all the time said that we are not going to attack people that not involved because we know to separate and we don't want to to to to fight uh against people that not involved um so yeah this is what i think about judea and samaria and i i know that most of the israeli uh believe that there is no other way we need to live together with the other people um and if something else would happen i don't know but this is what i feel right now um okay i'm reading your uh your question um gaia had a birthday masala of gaia all right or not i don't know ah no january okay i don't know people okay uh can i read your messages [Music] um all right so i think that uh there is no other question that or maybe i don't see i don't know but i don't see any other question for the portion so i will just finish with with the with the last thing that and then we will say shabbat shalom um there is a beautiful uh story that you can see in the end of the portion uh when isaac meet uh vivka and then yeah he bring her to the tent and we know that sarah passed away in the beginning of the persian and then when if kai is coming to the tent all the sign of the holy spirit coming back to the tent so what is the sign so one of the sign was the candle saga was uh lighting what i'm going to tell you right now it's like the story that's behind the story you won't see it in the portion but this is one the stories that that you know went from father to son um in the jewish faith so there was one sign that um when she was lighting the candles for shabbat they were uh keeping the uh the fire until the next shabbat and before shabbat the kel the candle was um the fire was stopped and then she was uh light a new candle for the new shabbat so her light was for a week so this was the first time the second son was the the cloud there was a cloud uh um in the top of the tent all the time and there is another uh uh more two sides i won't spoke about it but but just to understand them the message here that when sarah passed away all those signs was disappeared and this is why one of the things that islam understood and that's why i said that i felt like that in the beginning that sarah she is a very important character in in in the bible because we understand that the holy spirit was in the tent only when she was with the one when she passed away something happened so that's why ivan telling tuoliezzo to go to bring to isaac uh to bring him a bride so when he bring uh his khan to the tenth all the signs uh coming back and then abraham understand that he have a uh continuity uh for his um that isaac will be the next generation that's going to uh to [Music] want to be careful with my words here uh to bring yako and then to bring israel [Music] last thing that we see in the portion that you can see later that we see that um that avraham has passed away too in the end of the portion and there is another story that tells that ivan didn't know that asav will be will be would go to to a bad to a bad behavior we went to a bad behavior uh so uh it's happened only when he passed away uh and then i will just do kind of a build up for the next week about the sub and um that's it i think that's it all right so uh shabbat shalom and again portion of we see that there is like a lot of power for the women's and we believe we believe and i believe that we must as as as as humans to to to remember that a real redemption will be manned with and women together um and we can see it in dispersion and that's why i feel very connected to the to the character of sava and with katu and all the mothers and that's it shabbat shalom i love you very much thank you for all the you know i'm telling you every every every shabbat for all the messages all the the things that you are uh sending me feel free to send all the time even if it's take a couple of days or i don't know uh to answer i i'm trying to to to reach to all your messages so thank you so much i see it i feel it i feel uh your love uh not for me for what i'm trying to do and thank you so much and uh that's it i'm working on a very special thing that i'm praying that will i will i will finish next week and i'm sure that you're gonna love it um beautiful song that i i will keep it in a secret a little bit and then i will i will let you know so see you next week in the portion lesson see you every day i don't know in instagram youtube uh facebook wherever you you follow
