2 +1 = Ready for Shabbat - Shnayim Mikra Ve'Echad Targum

[Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] in the last 13 days every day we added one thing to our spiritual arsenal hopefully you're actually really doing it and you're not just sitting here and taking notes there is one big thing that most people don't do it's a hollow ha it's one of the most powerful and important things that we should do and most people don't do it I mentioned that in the previous class and this is called schnike raha I'll go there we have a mitzvah on Arab Shabbat to read twice the entire parish ah and one time the translation by McGraw means twice the Micra the actual text a cattle gone one translation so you read the entire parish ah twice and the translation of own colos this should take you about an hour and a half if you do it fast and if it's not such a long parish ah but first of all maybe we should make a class of the commentary of great sages in the last two thousand years what they have to say about nama gana Carter Goom the benefits you get the reward the effect to you so in your body the howard boosts your neshama and more and more and more for now just take my word that it's one of the most powerful things to do before Shabbat some people even do it again during Shabbat and it's important that you go through the entire text now to do it every Friday is it possible if you're single you don't have kids you have tons of money no worries and everything is great you can do it you have a wife kids and a lot of pressure coming from different directions it's pretty hard to find about an hour to sit down and to read the hope of Asha twice and the translation especially the translation if you're not so fluent in the text and you start breaking your teeth with the Rajon alone chorus then it's not really it's kind of Aramaic it's a different type of Aramaic there are many types of era makes you know that Romaic of the Talmud is not the same Aramaic of days of dissolve more or less the same a little bit difference like in Arabic as many types of a in Hebrew code and even styles like in Chinese there's many styles of of the Chinese language same thing with our meg so on course is a little bit different but nevertheless if you can do it before Shabbat have all of them about hi you're gonna get a blessing that you're not gonna be you're gonna be shocked with the type of blessing you're gonna get from that but since it's not so easy to do that you want to strive to do that of course then you can do it throughout the week and every day you read the portion of the parsha of the same alia if sunday first alia monday second earlier Tuesday third early up and you break it out throughout the week now there's two ways of doing it either you do one McRae winning one part of the parish on Sunday and the translation Monday for the second Aliyah and then Shabbat while we read the Torah you read with the bulk away but whispering not to disturb and then you complete it one throughout the week and one throughout the cria of the Torah plus the translation and you covered it that's the easy way to do it when you don't have to spend too much time so the ultimate way is to sit before Shabbat you read it and really I mean I mean I don't want to say exaggerated an hour and a half maybe if you read very slow and it's a very long parish ah it will take you some time but if not then it's not so much I mean again depending on the paste of the reader so like I told you again the best is to read it before Shabbat and of Shabbat if you can't start breaking it throughout the week now if you think you cannot read through ouch about with the bulk okay besides that this is I'm telling you as a side note on Shabbat when we're reading the Torah it's actually important that you do not only follow the text with your eyes is that you whisper the words yourself too because then you become one with the bulk of it you get more united with the clear of the Torah it affects you much more that's the reason why we read the Torah Shabbat could have been that we read it every Sunday by the way or every month or every Tuesday so there's a reason why we read on Shabbat I mean many asked why we read on Monday and Thursday because Monday is when motion went up to the mountain Thursdays when he came down from the mountain by a backwards and forth wasn't Monday Thursday Monday Thursday the last time that he came down from the mountain was a Shabbat and our young people so but nevertheless there are many reasons why we read on Monday and Thursday and there's a more mystical part to visit the chat here the olden days it didn't have so much opportunity to hear the Torah every day and not always to get it on Shabbat so they were read portions of it on Monday and Thursday but the fact is that hearing them the Torah at any given moment whenever you can is affecting your neshama it's like the the medicine to your souls to hear the Torah and on Shabbat especially listening it's you might not feel it but it's literally the best therapy for your soul in all aspects of its health externa T Manhattan a fresh calmness peace everything so on Shabbat not only that you want to listen you want to follow the words on a homage and even say them very quietly not to disturb of course so just to summarize what we want to add if you can add Nami class Ethel Gumm prior to Shabbat you you will be blessed tremendously you can do the whole thing to have you can do have two three allele whatever you can you do 20 minutes of genomic life at Algoma whatever you can do on Friday even if you need to schmear it over the Shabbat so you do 20 minutes before Shabbat 20 minutes on Friday 20 minutes Shabbat morning 20 minutes Shabbat afternoon just get it done through the Shabbat but the best the best the best is try before Shabbat you cannot do that break it down throughout the week and you should break it down throughout the week regardless in case you don't make it on Shabbat so you already have to take yourself a habit at Sunday you read the alley ow Sunday including the Telugu it's Monday so forth Tuesday and again and worst case you weren't able to do that Friday do you read with the balcony on Shabbat and the point is you try to get it however way you can that by the end of Shabbat you read the parasha twice and the translation that's the bottom line how you deliver it highest priority Friday less priority throughout the Shabbat less priority every day of the week and no priority not doing it at all but don't miss out and don't don't do that besides the fact do that in a very serious way I guarantee to you within three four years you'll know the to have much better you know that most people don't know nothing in the Torah they come three times a day to pray they're learning classes ask them a question of the order of the power shot do you know the order of all Parishad not to Custer she don't put anybody on the spot how can you know not the basic of the basics do you know the ten commandments of my heart basic things every Friday night that's what we do with my kids I test them on basic things why because you you are god-fearing Jew you don't know basic things who's whose father son a little bit of history of the Torah order of what was going on a little bit of years a little bit of history the basic things the Ten Commandments how many curses are in the Torah how many parashat are in the Torah which parashat are the ones that are attached I mean the minimum the minimum so you read the Torah every day you make the top part of your life exactly like what we learn yesterday in desorb you have to leave Kabira Torah to become one calibre when he went to have one why specifically one wine indigo geo shall I why did he go to Sheol oh why didn't it go to any other city because heaven comes to signify the people the unity with the Torah with the Kadosh before you get connected to the Torah then you obviously connected to a shame if you're not connected to the Torah are you gonna be connected to Hashem so we have to make the top part of us and when you read the Pasha throughout the week twice minimoog should be even much more but minimum then you know now I'll ask you what's the power shot today oh of course it's my luck what's what is he talking about no the whole thing with Barak and Balaam what else does it say in the Persia any other events that happen you know I didn't get really to that part yet but so last week we read who cut for the desperate still who cut you ask an average person what was going on who God oh of course the right effort but you know many other things happen there the death of Miriam and the heating of the rock and the wars and so many other things and the whole thing with the snake in there but you need to have a little bit minimum of something or with the Torah it can't be caught off guard somebody will now come and ask you especially a Christian missionary will ask you a question they know it better than us how embarrassing that is so do yourself a favor and do a lot of naka to the Kenosha bajo give him a lot of happiness and be part of the tour make the tour part of you and I would suggest to you to do not only this time you can either come do it every day that you know and we gave what's going on in the power shop that you kind of what's going on it's connected what can I learn from that you don't have to now say five hours every day Rondo I mean I would highly recommend but it is the minimum of the minimum so try to do it today it's still very early we're accepting Shabbat an hour and a half earlier today as we did before and prepare the right way take the the the specious moment in the right measure because other shape we're all gonna have a beautiful amazing Shabbat restful Shabbat and from here we go from high to five and strength to strength [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
