PROPHECY TODAY, GUARD EYES, PS5 Videogame, NOAHIDE MEZUZAH, HAVDALAH 101 - STUMPTHE RABBI (114)

[Music] we are back to our weekly St Rabbi where after some you guys will ask some questions will give us the answers so tonight will be for for Leana Sana Doris but Jor um Orit but Elana uh baa but s Ben B and also for Mar Julie Mara Samuel B Mara Seas B Mara Alexander B Mara LS Ben Mara Amir Ben shahin sha Ben faran benam um David Ben elad and all of is that are supporting the and doing and especially uh the ones that are uh helping our organization and of course all of the righteous noahides to watch our sh and support and spend time getting other people uh closer to so we have a and and uh uh to be honest with you I am so excited about the K that I had today uh that I just want to dance but uh I'm going to leave you in suspense because it has to do with this uh not only with this parasa uh but uh it comes at the end it comes at the end of the par uh it comes at the end of the Paras uh when I had this K just uh earlier today I uh I started to dance it's just that good of course everybody's going to have their perspective but I highly doubt anyone is not going to get shocked when they hear this uh but we have to get there we have to build it up to there we have to learn uh the if you to in T and you got to something good I believe you but if you didn't toil in Torah and you tell me that you know T I don't believe you why that's not how you learn Tor that's not how you get knowledge of Tor some people pretend like they know Torah because they just feel like God speaks to them these are delusional people these are people that need to be put in a institution they are danger to themselves and to society only way that you gain toah is by learning toah and learning not just learning when you learn superficially but learning and toiling and once in a while gives you an Insight that is your from says that there are insights there are new insights new that only you can bring into the world and therefore when a person goes up to sh if they toiled and they brought all those Kim they get rewarded handsomely because why they made they they magnify the Torah uh as they say like to to make the Torah greater and and uh more glorified but if they did not toil in Tora and therefore did not get those Kim to the world they get rebuked they get punished why you are were responsible for new insights that were supposed to magnify the Torah and you didn't do it therefore you uh you did the opposite so a person that uh that is going to learn T has to know that it's not not you're not doing anybody a favor by learning to you're doing yourself a favor but uh let's get on with the I'll be honest with you I'm so excited about this I can't even think about anything else will help me think about everything else until we get to the so we have we have I don't know when I was this excited about a it's been a long time since I had something like this and I uh uh I don't know it's not even a matter of hoping that you like it or don't like it uh to be quite Frank with you I'm so excited about it I don't care whether anyone likes or doesn't like it because it's as it's to me as clear as the heavens but um sometimes uh let you see who's the B who owns the house and uh it's it's m like a uh uh I don't know how to explain it I honestly don't know how to explain it if if if if you guys weren't waiting for K and uh instead you were waiting for somebody to dance I'd be the dancer right now that's how excited I am about this K uh but anyway let's get let's get on it let's get on it um okay so we have last week par last week's par we had mik we have one of the most dramatic stories in the Torah where after the uh the brothers uh sell YF we have the whole uh uh jail sentence that he serves uh and for 12 years he's in prison then uh he uh uh you know the sentence from was complete and uh showed us an Insight of how decrees uh work from heaven where when somebody uh has a uh terrible time has a difficulty has a some type of disaster uh they need to know that the moment that that disaster was decreed the end of that disaster was also decreed and uh we learned that from last week's par where it says that that they hurried him out of the hole the jail over there was a hole in the ground a huge enormous filthy disgusting hole with a lot of uh criminals in there but uh when the decree from heaven was over they hurried him out of that hole why because he does not he no longer belongs in that decree in that evil decree and that terrible decree in that uh nightmare of a life that he lived for 12 years the decree is over therefore you cannot suffer for an extra minute more than it was decreed for you in Sham this should give hope to anybody out there that is suffering through any type of trouble whether it's a heartache or headache or whatever ache uh you should know that that trouble will be over and quite frankly if a person does not know that the trouble that they're dealing with will eventually be over it is very very easy to become suicidal uh simply because uh what a person doesn't think that their life will ever get better and in fact the misery that they're in is a permanent misery it becomes impossible to uh get your head around it and to uh and to rationalize a a reason to live uh of course if a person has to in their life these types of arguments do not cross their mind I have a uh uh my my mother's uh sister older sister uh Viola sh she's a extraordinary sad for she did cha many many years ago and uh she was uh one of those special sadikot that uh you uh you don't need much uh before you realize this is a very special person but uh my aunt uh she had a life has a life that's literally like the modern day job uh just for a woman terrible uh difficulties that she's had uh where uh you had uh you know her oldest son was uh impr prisoned for uh for a crime that after sitting in prison a life sentence of over 20 years that he's been in prison they just discovered that the whole thing was a setup and he did not commit the crime meaning he's been sitting in prison for over 20 years for nothing for absolutely nothing and one of the good things that happened is that he did Serious chuva in that prison which is a miraculous story of itself ended up getting married uh really special special story but nonetheless after they discovered that the whole thing was a setup that the part of the setup came from the police itself that hated the family still they did not release him they still have not released him from prison uh because they want to go through the uh through the uh miserable uh uh process this is all over Israeli News over the uh last couple of years uh this is one of my uh cousins then aside from that her uh uh our one of our uh second oldest son uh he um he is he was a fantastic fantastic human being I remember when we were little kids we used to look up to them they were like the gim they were like the heroes the heroes of the city of NATA uh it's one of these uh just special people really warm hearts and of course we all got in trouble we all did stupid things but nonetheless you know the uh when a person's good they're good and uh Shalom he uh uh one day got into a motorcycle accident and died uh just uh not too many years ago if that wasn't bad enough or uh you know the uh I think it was within like a uh a year or so of that happening her husband died uh and uh and on and on and on and on I mean I could uh literally the amount of difficulties that uh she has had in her life is really unimaginable unimaginable uh and I only know an ounce of it uh cuz I'm not there and I'm not as involved but I just hear from time to time different things but uh I remember when I uh when I went to Israel last several years ago and uh I really wanted to make it a point to see her cuz I haven't seen her in many many years over 20 years uh almost probably 25 years something like that and I went to see her and uh such a special tadik such a special woman and uh I've always admired her even when I was a little kid uh I always admired how she was modest and put together even when I didn't know what modesty was and I remember when I went to Israel and you know I she heard me say she was so excited about it uh that literally you see started crying hard and my other ant ra and Viola and Dina my my mother has a a big family of of sisters and a couple of brothers and when I saw them it was very exciting but when uh when I heard something that uh she said I believe to my mother at some point or to somebody else that she said that if or I think she even said it to me either way it's printed in my mind for years uh that if it wasn't for her her fear of the almighty her fear of her love of surely she would have committed suicide a long time ago and that's one of the scariest most real statements you could ever hear and the reason why is because you when you feel pain no one else can solve it for you you feel pain you feel pain and there are certain things that are unsolvable and when a person does not have any hope that this pain will eventually be over the decree will be over at some point it's very easy to become suicidal unless you have t when you have tah you know that this world is simply a temporary world you're not living here forever therefore any decree that you have regardless of what it is is temporary with the longest amount of time that it could be it's just your lifetime and needless to say most decrees are much much shorter than your lifetime so the decree on on yadik was uh was a heavy decree he had to be surrounded by criminals and garbage for for many years but then when it was over showed us that when it's over it's over immediately after that the uh turned the The Prisoner into the visero the most powerful man in the world not just Egypt but the most powerful man in the world in the making initially became the most powerful man in Egypt but then in the uh this week par he becomes the most powerful man in the world and it's with with this particular Paras that we will learn how to invest many many people have asked me over the years how to invest in the market how to make a lot of money and so on I generally do not like to speak about my business uh uh of the past as far as how to do things number one because it's not what I do anymore I don't invest in the market not a dollar not a penny not a nothing I don't follow nothing uh once in a blue moon somebody tells me what's happening but generally speaking I don't follow uh and number two I know what it comes with meaning when you give people advice it comes with baggage it comes with baggage because if it uh if it works no one's ever going to be grateful uh they all own the idea because everyone thinks the more money they have there the smarter they are but then they'll come back to you for more and they'll keep bothering you forever and if it doesn't work they'll never stop bothering you again so in so many words I simply don't do it uh especially since it's a it's a responsibility it's a headache I already have enough that I have to deal with and quite frankly uh you know if I'm not getting uh paid for it why would I do it there's no benefit to it it's not going to help anybody's life and if you tell me no no but if I make more money then I'll donate more money spare me the nonsense you can give you could sell that to some homeless person that has no brain no experience and is gullible to believe that stupidity anyone that wants to donate is welcome to donate anyone that doesn't want to donate don't worry it's not uh it's not going to hurt us in any way we simply feel bad that you don't have the Merit to donate but the reality is is that there's been many times that people have asked me to uh you know uh help them with uh investing and today you're going to get a sh about investing uh but it's not going to be your uh traditional sh I'm not going to start showing you charts I'm not going to tell you to follow any particular pattern I'm going to tell you a fullprof system of how to invest in anything in the world if you follow this system uh to uh to the T there's a uh certainty that according to the statistics that you will succeed uh if you do not follow it to the te then you will not succeed meaning it's not guaranteed because obviously you could poti potentially pick bad Investments but the strategy itself is fullprof it's the way that the uh the most successful people in history have invested whether it be uh the ones that you know of today uh such as the Warren buffets of or or the the top hedge fund managers the uh uh in the world uh or it is the uh you know the the former tycoons uh uh the Roth Childs and uh and you know and the other uh uh tycoons that have lived over the years now in reality none of them invested anything because all of it is in the tah as I always tell you what I learn I learned one thing early on and I see a proof of it and every single week every single time I learn T everything is in a t says the M toil in it and toil in it because everything is in it literally everything is in it including this you now anyone that wants to learn something if they're going to learn it from some uh Flesh and Blood person that has wisdom that he gained throughout the world you can gain certain things you can lose certain things but when you learn something from a tah it's guaranteed success why because it becomes Divine it's the Divine instructions and of course many people that have listened to the T succeeded EX extraordinarily and one of the places we see is in this week's par so after the whole craziness that happened last week where we saw that the brothers come to buy food and then YF tries to see whether they have done chuva for selling him 20 years before that or not whether they're still adamant about their mistake or not you know he wants to check and the way he checks is by asking them to go bring their younger brother which is his full brother both from the mother and the father whereas the rest of the brothers are only common father yov and he wants to see Benyamin and of course in order to trap uh Benyamin in order to see what the brothers will do if the circumstances were the same meaning that uh Benyamin uh could potentially be uh uh uh a his new slave uh the um yep's New slave which at this point they believe he's a uh he's a pharaoh he's a he's a visoy of Egypt so with that being said we start into this week's it says then approached him meaning he approached yourf not knowing that he's yourf yet he approached yourf and said if if you please my Lord may your servant speak a word in my Lord's ears and let not your anger flare up at your servant for you are like Po you are like Pharaoh what does it mean you like like Pharaoh what does it mean Pharaoh you're powerful why is y yudah was a lion was a GI the uh the uh says that when there was the wars of the tribes when the tribes went to war with the different nations of Canan after the whole thing that happened with daa being raped and then Shimon and Levi destroyed the whole city of Shem the nations of Kanan all attacked the family because it say it's not uh who gave you guys permission to go kill one of our uh friends you killed an entire people because they raped one girl what are you guys doing so they sent their entire armies armies full of giants armies full of weapons huge monsters all types of things anyone that reads the midashim literally it puts all of the superhero films you've ever watched to shame it's it's it's it's the stuff that's in the they haven't thought about it in Hollywood and quite frankly if you actually uh look deep enough into the uh the the people that actually originated the stories of the superhero fil films of today you'll see that practically every one of them is a former that went off the and went into Hollywood that's actually what happened either that or they learned from somebody that's a former pretty much all of the stories come from the tah and because they stopped learning apparently they haven't come up with all of the stories from the tah because the stories of the wars of the tribes are some of the most fantastic stories out there either way y when he would fight these Jew uh Warriors and Giants he uh would be literally like uh the equivalent of the uh fake superhero in the films called The Incredible Hulk where he was powerful he would Roar and literally buildings would be destroyed as a result of his Roar he would hit something and Destroy many things literally uh in one day in one of the wars he killed 30,000 people by himself I mean real real details they have exact figures exact places exact times a lot of really details that you can't just come up with out of the uh out of your uh imagination uh another interesting feature that was that udah had is that when he would Roar there would be a piece of copper that came out of his body uh all types of interesting things so this is now in a in a argument and he's coming to YF the viso and he says you are like let me tell you something you're like par now if if you're trying to pick a fight with me why what's how are you insulting me by telling me you're like par how are you insulting me by telling me like Paro if you're trying to fight with me trying to argue with me saying that I'm like Paro I mean technically that could be a death sentence because you're uh you're in essence embarrassing the King which is po himself so if you're trying to fight with me I mean I guess perhaps you're asking for a death sentence but if you're trying to appease me how is telling me that I'm like going to help our little argument and this is one of the secrets that uh you learn from here where anytime a person has a toah in his mind they're able to contain themselves even at a a a Moment of Truth a difficult moment where you really have a uh uh the desire to argue but you know that arguing is not going to get you anywhere good you need to contain yourself so what do you do try to get to a reasonable stand but if you're dealing with somebody that is in a more powerful position than you or perhaps a person that thinks that they're better than everybody else one of the ways that you can calm them down is simply by giving them a compliment giving them a compliment giving them a little bit of kab and that's in essence what a uh Y is doing here strategizing by saying listen you are like par you're powerful you are so powerful you have whole countries and everything else we're nothing we're just a regular people we made a mistake I'll be your slave don't take the little boy he has to go back to his father and he starts the argument which even though he is uh very commanding and he Stern with everything that he's saying he is trying not to fight because he believes that this decree is certainly from God and therefore okay you're right we're wrong and we're going to follow according to the Tor we stole there's a decree there's a rule of the land we're going to follow the rule of the land but let's please be reasonable you're par you are very powerful at the very least take me instead of the boy why because if the boy is a uh uh doesn't come back my father's going to die because my father is so deeply connected to him spiritually that he literally would die he would die from pain if uh if he does not see his young boy come back home uh and uh you that keeps his composure keeps his composure and tries to reason with so here we also learn another secret where uh in uh the first chapter in verse number 22 it says UD says that we said to my Lord the youth cannot leave his father for should he leave his father he will die now the fact that the father loves that yov loves his son fine we understand that but why would the youth Die Why would the youth die because his father loves him so this is where you have to read the commentaries now you're not going to find find it in any commentary you're going to find it if you study you study to you're going to see the same places that I said if you go to uh to to you go to Mid you go to many of the mid you're going to see that each one of the tribes not just y each one of the tribes had certain powers and the power that uh Benyamin had is that he would turn into a werewolf literally he would turn into a werewolf at night and uh that's why the blessing that yov gives the Son and the sign and the flag of of Benyamin is the wolf a uh so the point is is that Benyamin would actually turn into werewolf and the reason why yov was scared to let him go with with the brothers to Egypt was because every night he would turn into a werewolf and since he was still young and uh not at his full strength and does not have all the protection and everything else that uh some of the older brothers have some of the strength that the older brothers had yob was afraid that if the Egyptians found out that he's a werewolf that kill him so that's why if he left my father he would die why because yob himself was a hero yob himself was a hero was was a powerful person that we already learned from uh the previous par where before he went to the uh the house of lvan he was able to pick up a boulder that uh uh you know that all of the people together had to pick up by you know together he was able to fling it like a bottle cap so he was a very powerful person and also when he went to the wars with the uh with all of the nations of Kanan they yob had a bow and arrow a special bow and arrow where this bow and arrow was simply like a uh the unending missile he would simply send a uh an arrow and the uh the bow the the arrow would would simply just non-stop killing people one Arrow would kill thousands of people unbelievable hundreds of people so the things that uh uh you you saw you learned from this like wow why would anybody ever watch television when you have such beauty in the Tora itself when you have such beauty in to quite frankly when you watch some of these movies you compare them to t you say listen the uh the the Torah first of all is a lot more realistic uh even with the supernatural stuff until they short Chang the uh the stuff that's in the movies is not anywhere near what's in the toah is much better anyway here we have this whole thing where yah is trying to appease this visery now after the visoy which is yourf says no no they uh you said you know please let your servant remain instead of the youth YF says no no no no I can't do that can't do that he's going to be my servant he's going to be my servant not anybody else and at that moment at that moment that's when the battle got heated because that's when y saw that this cannot be from Heaven this cannot be from Heaven why because it no longer made sense if you really just looking to get a servant because you feel like you have been taken advantage of fine so take me as a servant clearly I'm more powerful than Benyamin you says I'm smarter than him I have more more experience than him I'm the leader of the tribe I'm going to be your Serv it but since you don't want me and you insist on having him obviously you have bad intentions you have evil intentions strange intentions this cannot be from Hashem this is not a decree from sh there's something wrong here and that's when the battle gets heated and he starts uh preparing for battle first thing he tells the mid says he tells naali go and go around all of Egypt tell tell me exactly how many cities he has and how many points of attack we have to goali had a speed that he would be able to go around the entire city in moments I think in today's uh Comics World they call that some guy named flash naali went in a matter of moments he came back reported to Yuda that there are 12 places in Egypt Yuda says to each one of the Brothers you take that City you take that City you take that City I'm going to take two cities everybody has one I'm going to take two and now you have a fight he tells ysf if you do not agree to the terms I'm pleading with you we will destroy all of Egypt and we'll start off with by killing you at that moment Yuda tries to take out his sword and he's not capable of doing it he's not capable of doing it then there's a roar a roar that's unlike anything they've ever heard outside of their own house coming from y's son the roar That Shook the entire Place made an earthquake and at that second you understood this is not coming from theim this is from the house of yov what is this what is this Roar what is this power how are they stopping me where is this YF getting this power and it says that because he sees his brothers are ready to fight for Benyamin they're ready to fight they're ready to die for him they're ready to do everything that not going to let him go and he sees ah they're not going to repeat the mistake they made over 20 years ago with me they're not going to repeat the mistake they already they feel the pain they're willing to die just not to make the same mistake it says that y that YF could no longer restrain himself he kicks out all of his servants and he says one of the most emotional statements where every single year that I read the Paras I always start like shivering when I hear this start shivering and uh today was no different shows me they still have some uh some uh some connection to the Tora and uh he says that he tells a uh he can't restrain himself anymore he kicks out [Applause] everybody he cried in a loud voice Egypt heard and Pharaoh's household heard and ysf said to his brothers I am YF is my father still alive but his brothers could not answer him because they were left disconcerted before him the second that YF said he is their brother is the father still alive who showed each and every single one of the brothers everything that has transpired over the last 22 years their whole rationale of what they did and how they made the mistake of a Lifetime by selling their brother and not only selling him putting him in danger throwing him into a hole full of snakes and scorpions selling him for a des graceful price that could not even buy a pair of shoes because they feel they they felt that he is trying to go against the kingdom steal the kingdom but in reality he was simply delivering a prophecy that a who gave him they saw how they made a mistake of a Lifetime by not going to the and asking what's the D here they saw how they pined wrong and when a person that has realizes that they passing wrong realize that they just made a mistake immediately immediately that person has a horrible feeling the greater the the greater that horrific feeling that trepidation that horror but even when a person is not just looking at a single thing but rather an entire lifetime over 20 year of mistakes he realizes that he made a mistake that led to more mistakes and they've been living a life over 20 years they've been lying to their father for over 20 years they've been lying to themselves for over 20 years V they got so scared at the fact that they made such a great mistake AK all of them died they all had a heart attack and died that's what the uh the say they all they couldn't speak because they were uh disconcerted what's disconcerted they died and resurrected them all from the dead and say to us WOTE to us on a day of judgment WOTE to us on a day of rebuke if the brothers of that were that only made a single mistake literally died because they realized how they made a mistake died from that mistake what will happen to us when we are at the of sh and tells us we lived an entire lifetime of mistakes we didn't have we didn't keep Shabbat we didn't protect our eyes we kept looking at everything like a water fountain everything that moved we looked we kept chasing money we were T we didn't study Tor like we're supposed to we lied we cheated we did all these different things but when the rabbi said listen you got to come to the sh don't worry Rabbi I'm coming even though you know you're not coming he say the Rabbi says listen you do your me Rabbi don't worry I know already you haven't learned since it originated from the rabbi asked you did you learn the weekly par don't worry Rabbi I already know it from last year you don't even know which par it is and what's the name and you can lie to the rabbi you could fool the rabbi you could fool a lot of people but at the bed of sh you cannot fool anybody and when a person is shown every single one of their lies every single one of their actions and every single one of their thoughts and not only shown them but actually is put through the motion of going through that sin going through that emotion when he thought about somebody else's wife brings his friend's wife that person's wife and that person his best friend his brother and they witness him looking at his friend's wife look looking at his brother's wife and saying wow I think I should marry her she's not good for him she's good for me and his brother is right next to him he says that's what you were thinking when you look at my wife and I invited you for shabas that's what you were thinking how could you do that the poor sadik looks at him and says that's what you thought about me when you said thank you for the food I liked it you thought that maybe I would catch on that's what you thought about out every single one of the sins every single one of the thoughts the filthy disgusting thoughts a if we all had to report if I had to report my own sins forget the thought just simply the sins that is that I've made in my life there would not be enough time for the world to continue and the list would continue what Miracle the kadh gave me on a silver ploted to allow me to do Chua and at the very least try to fix it by getting people to do Chua and thereby trying to sanctify his name and turn all of those sins into mitv because there's simply no other way to fix it there's no other way to fix it you cannot simply just erase it you can't just erase the fact that you killed a person you shot a bullet and it hits somebody oh I'm sorry okay Sorry's not going to bring him back to life life same thing when it comes to wasting seed same things when it comes to all types of crimes you stole money you cheated you lied you uh whatever you did each and every single one of us has a has an account and I'm talking about myself you guys may all be sikim I don't know I'm telling you that before I knew what the Torah is I thought I was perfect when I learned to I realized that I will never be perfect not only I wasn't I will never be perfect and the only hope that I have is to help people do Chua because if I had to Simply do a lecture about my own sins from the past and it wasn't killing people and it wasn't stealing money and it wasn't anything against the laws of the land but it was against the Torah if I had to report it there would literally not be enough ink in the world to report those sins and needless to say if I had to report my thoughts May Hashem have mercy just on the thought of having those thoughts and even more so if has to put me through the hell of actually showing me all the things that I thought of and all the things that I did and put me through it I have no doubt in my mind I will ask him to put me in the seventh level of Gom and say thank you at the end the reality is that the more a person understands where they stand in reality the more they realize how much they're obligated to love AEM not just fear Him obligated to love for the fact that he gave you the opportunity to do from all of the filth that you got yourself involved in when you lived without him the fact that allows a person like me to do chuv needless to say to get people to do Chu uses somebody like that was in the 50th level of Tuma put me in this world to go help different people from all over the world by the dozens by the hundreds by the thousands to go come back to fight the wars of I tell all the time even if I don't have a single Merit in sh let it me at least be a tool that you use to get people to serve you why it simply makes life worth it without it there's no reason when a person understands what they did against their maker that gives them everything in the world he gives you panasa he gives you a wife a husband kids uh vision and it gives you all types of things that you don't even think is a big deal says one of the easiest ways that you can fall in love in hem is simply by thinking about all the problems other people have and you don't you never broke a hand you know how many people break their hand and how much how much pain that is you never broke a bone that alone is a reason for you to love hem that alone is a reason for you to love hem that you never broke a bone you know how many people suffer breaking bones you never lost an eyee you know how many people lose their eyes you know what kind of miserable life it is to not have eyes to be to be blind you never lost your your hearing you have your hearing you know how many people suffer with difficult hearing or being deaf altogether you never lost all your money you know how many people lose all of their money you never went lonely you got married right away without a problem you know how many people are still looking for a wife or a husband at later ages when a person realizes how many problems other people have that were not decreed on them that alone is a reason for you to fall in love with hem says Shalom when a person understands what they did instead of loving hasem all of the crimes they made against Society both in the world and in heaven where instead of loving aadh for all of the bad things that he didn't do to you instead we did bad things against theem we did bad things against people we were invited for for for a dinner and instead of saying thank you we were looking in the wrong places we're invited to do business and instead of doing business we were stealing or looking at different ways of how to take advantage we were invited to uh come eat and instead of saying thank you for the food we were simply criticizing everything that was there and how it's not appropriate and not up to your standards and on and on and on if a person simply thinks about that immediately they should shiver no different than how the tribes were shivering and that's why the says that if the tribes literally died from the fear of the fact that they made one alic mistake how are we waling around with full confidence that we're all going to go to heaven and not even realizing that there's not a day or even an hour that passes by without us making a mistake how is it possible so this is a very very difficult rebuke it's as truth as it gets but it's it's something that we all need to take into consideration now after all of this after this meeting the emotional meeting the uh the brothers hug they after they come back to life there's a lot of Tears discussion and the uh before he uh before he sends them off to go bring his father he gives each one of them gifts and he tells them here this is for you this is for you this is for you each person gets three different suits but Benyamin gets five perhaps the reason why Benyamin got five is the same reason why he got five portions when they were eating in last week's par anyone that saw the commentary over there sees that it's a uh while the other brothers got their portion Benyamin got his portion like theirs but he also got a portion from a portion from men a portion from Ephraim the two sons of YF and a portion fromat osnat the the wife of YF that was actually the sister-in-law uh the sister-in-law of of of Benyamin but also technically the uh uh uh close relative because she was actually the daughter of Dina and this brings us to uh another interesting thing where you have this week's par you have a lot of interesting uh insights about powerful women in Judaism powerful women in Judaism that mentioned in this week's par where you have the uh when there's the uh they come back to yob to tell him that YF is still alive after a whole testing and making sure that really is alive the uh yov says let's go we're all going and he takes the whole family 70 70 people now when they're mentioning in the par these 70 people it says that there was a is one of the people these are uh ruven's Sons H Shimon Sons I'm sorry Shimon sons and Sha Sha was the son of a Canaanite woman so the said what is this Shimon tadik one of the tribes could it possibly be that Shimon married a Canaanite woman even though his grandfather his uh great-grandfather and his father forbid it is it possible that Shimon married a kenite a cursed woman obviously it's not possible so what's the truth here the truth here is that the kenite woman is Dina Dina that was actually his sister from a different mother Shimon married DIN and they had the son sha so that's why sha is called sha the son of the Canaanite woman because Dina was raped by Canaanite uh uh the uh the uh so because she was raped by the Canaanite she's called the uh the Canaanite woman and the only reason why Shimon married her is because she was in such depression after this rape she refused to leave the house because the baby that came out of that rape constantly reminded her of the rape so yobu made a decree what's the decree we're going to take this little baby this baby girl we're going to send her off to Egypt why just that's it she's still part of am don't worry yob says I got a plan for her too he puts a special Medallion on his baby tells her exactly who she is then Dina is gonna restart our life get married Shimon marries agrees to marry daa agrees to marry Dina and they consummate the marriage and they have a child and that's sha Shaul is the son of Shimon and Dina now what happens to this uh this little baby that goes to Egypt she gets adopted by ptif ptif and they adopt this little girl now one day there's a young man named ysf that goes into the house of a of potifa as a servant of course everybody knows the story where the wife of potifar tries to meet with uh with YF and potifar himself who is a homosexual actually bought uh bought bought y because he wanted to make homosexual crimes with him now also say that saw in a dream that uh uh the uh there's going to be a a lot of holy things coming from ysf his children uh have to do with the Mia and so on and she wanted to be part of it meaning it came from a good place if you will but she didn't realize that it's not going to be from her but rather her adopted daughter why because after YF was uh released from the prison remember where it says that last week's par that uh took come on a his uh special uh Carriage which was the there was the king's carriage and there was the this the uh uh secondary carriage or replacement uh Carriage that the king had and he gave it to YF and ysf went through the entire city all over Egypt and all of the people were screaming a now the uh the women that saw the beauty of YF threw their underwear at him YF that was a sadik looked down didn't see any of the women who were throwing their their uh clothing at him wanting to propose to him wanting to marry him but then he got a medallion thrown at him he picks up The Medallion and he sees there's Hebrew engravement on this Medallion and he says who's this woman who is that woman that's oat he says that's who I want to marry I want to marry osnat that's the daughter of ptif the very same guy that put me in prison because of his wife I want to marry her why because she is the only Jew in Egypt this also this also answers the question for all of those people that say wait a minute if YF married a girl in Egypt so what your married some Gentile no nothing works like that you just have to learn all of the behind the scenes in order to know how manipulates the world like putty like body and he sent already the the cure for the ill 20 years before there was an ailment 20 years before there was an ailment he sent UT and that's the other uh girl that's a woman that's mentioned that's mentioned in this week's par you have the which is you have the that's mentioned this week's par you also have is also mentioned why is mentioned there are many other sisters in the family why is Sak mentioned because Sak got a special blessing from yov her grandfather when they gave the news to uh to yob that is still alive they knew that this is big news so it's could give him a heart attack could be dangerous to give somebody such big news uh at one shot so they sent Sak to go play a tune of music and and sing for yov before they gave him the news in order to put him in a good mood so he is able to accept good news and uh initially yob did not realize why his granddaughter is in his uh bet midash singing But as soon as they came with the news in the carriages he realized that she just saved his life and he gave sah sah the daughter of Aer a blessing to never die and Sak is one of the 10 people that never died and went to heaven with a clothes on she never died and she's actually the one that told mosenu hundreds of years later after the whole uh uh ex Exodus happened after everything happened with Egypt with the slaves and everything else we're talking about hundreds of years later cuz mosenu was born 130 years after this week's par was just born and then he only came back to be the mashia that took us out of Egypt 80 years later so we're talking about 210 years after this par sah is the one that tells mosu where y's bones are buried which was inside the Nile River because they were hiding in because the Egyptians were worshiping y now Sak got this blessing another that got an extraord ordinary blessing so here we have the Dina we have a um we have and then we have a fourth woman who is the fourth woman y y the mother of M where she if where she mentioned in the par literally she's not mentioned but she's mentioned in the numbers where when it says uh that uh yov uh came to to Egypt it gives all the numbers and then it says zon's Sons uh and daughters are all all the people all his sons are numbered 33 uh what's 33 if you do the numbers of all of the different people you see it's really 32 so say why is 3 33 33 because the 33rd one was born right when they got to the Border or to the gates of Egypt y was born y was born and then say wait a minute if she was born then that means that uh she gave birth to mosu when she was 130 years old yes so how come the T didn't make such a big deal out of it but yet it made a big deal out of Sarah giving birth at 90 years old couple of reasons couple of reasons that are very simple number one the uh the uh the whole uhh thing with Y wasn't as miraculous as uh as Sarah because y already had children that's number one number two Sarah did not even have a uterus so she didn't have the body part in her body to have a child so the age wasn't the biggest deal out of the story of sah it was a uh complete uh transformation of the body either way after this I know we're already almost an hour into the shoe and I haven't got to neither my K nor the the business advice but now we're going get to it so now we have YF gives the uh the brothers some insights before you go meet make sure to tell them that you are all Shepherds why because shepherds are disgusting in the eyes of the Egyptians to disgusting is to and there are plenty of places in the Tora where it says there are certain things that are considered to homosexuality to a idolatry is a TOA all types of things that arrogance is a TOA uh this is one of the place we learn what the word TOA means is from this par that it's disgusting uh it means disgusting and here we're talking about how shepherds are disgusting they're considered lower class in the eyes of the Egyptians YF says tell them that you are Shepherds why because if you go into the business world with the Egyptians Shem you may become an Egyptian we don't want that we want you to stay a Jew what about don't worry about we have a strategy we have a strategy says that sustained his father his brothers and all the father's household with food according to the children later on it also says that uh YF uh YF uh gave a uh sustenance to all of the Egyptians also according to the children why does it keep mentioning why does to say according to the family to show the R the mercy of a Jew that is not only to help somebody but to help somebody according to their needs there are many times people think that they're helping somebody just by giving them whatever they have oh here here you go here's 20 bucks go go go and they think that's helping somebody that's not helping somebody when you see how Kos who helps people he helps them according to their standards if somebody was rich and then decreed for that person to lose all of his money if you're going to help him you have to help him according to his standards meaning that if he's used to eating steak you have to help him eat steak if he's used to driving a a good car you can't just give him some garbage car and say listen it's better than nothing that's not the way to help why because when AOS brings a Salvation he brings a Salvation to each and every single person even a person that's going through a difficulty according to their standards I witnessed this with my own life I could see how nursed us and nurtured us even throughout the great decline that we had and we lost all the money and blah blah blah never put us in a situation where we had to beg for anything even when there were test where there was literally zero money in the bank still there was never any food missing still there was never any real feeling of true poverty always babied us and that's one of the things that yadik is doing here yadik is saying listen each one of you is not just needing of food needing of P but also you have to get helped based on the amount of kids that you have why because it's known that kids waste food it's a well-known thing you give a kid food no no but I want that okay you go yeah but I want that okay here you go yeah but I want that but kid you're 5 years old you're going to eat a meal for six people yeah yeah I'm going to eat it I'm going to eat it please please I want I want I want it okay fine you give the kid all the food that he wants he takes three bites and he walks away and you have two and a half plates of wasted food it's a known thing kids waste food is not just called a sadik for nothing he says if I'm going to help my brothers I'm going to give you according to the kids because I'm going to give you extra according to how many kids you have are because it's known that kids are going to be wasteful I'm not going to give you oh you have five members in your house you have six members in your house you have eight members in the house and everybody gets according to the members $100 a person no no no if you have five members but three of them are little kids I'm going to give you a certain amount if you have five members in your house but only one of them is a kid and the rest of them are adults I'm going to give you a different amount why because the adults are not as wasteful they're not as wasteful and he gave customized solutions to each and every single person but to show that it wasn't favoritism just for his brothers he also did it for the Egyptians now how did your how did yourf go to the point of teaching us how to invest how to invest in a fullprof way fullprof way and also show us that the Torah is divine unlike the the uh the new testament which which we also like to uh call false Testament or the Quran all of these other false uh false documents that have nothing in it that's worth worth a penny how does the Tora show us not only the uh strategy for success but also that this success is guaranteed because it's coming from the Tor and the Torah itself it's divine this is how it is hold on to your chairs you're about to get a shoe that's a separate shoe of its own but this Sho is going to prove to you two major points that will change your life if you take it into account first and foremost says so after everybody settled down it says YF gathered all of the money that was to be found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canan through the provisions that they were purchasing and YF bought brought the money into the pharaoh's Palace what does he need all of this money what does he need all of this money step number one of investing when things are good the market is high which the market was at this time when there was s years of sustenance what did yourself do that almost nobody in the world is doing today unless they're a expert investor he gathered cash how do you gather cash how do you get more cash during good times you sell yeah but everybody else is buying and the market keeps going higher exactly that's when it's time to sell your Bitcoin went from zero to I don't know 50,000 sell yeah but it could go to 100,000 let it go to a zillion doesn't make a differ difference you made your money move on move on where do I buy no where do I buy now nothing the market has gone up for 13 years straight it's not normal you are more likely to lose than you are to gain yeah but I'm maybe I'm going to miss out okay then you're an idiot and you're going to end up losing all of your money you don't know how to invest what do you do in a market Peak like this you sell everything that you can as soon as you can why because it's gotten to a point where you're more likely to lose than to gain because the biggest part of the profits have already been made yeah but I'm afraid of missing out no no you're not getting the point this is not a preservation strategy this is a moneymaking strategy how is selling everything a money-making strategy tune in and you'll listen and understand how this is a money-making strategy when everything is profited it is gain and you've made your money you get out you sell your property you sell your stocks you sell your Bitcoins you sell your whatever else was created in the world that to make some type of fictitious money sell everything gather liquidity and after that step number two do nothing stay on the sidelines don't even watch the news don't buy anything just gather as much cash as possible and and simply sit on the sidelines that's what ysf did when everything was going good ysf gathered all of the money from everything that Egypt had and brought it to the house of Po after the decree of starvation famine everything came YF had what to give the people which is the food they needed he had the ability to see what was going to happen before it happened as we saw from the beginning of par from the from the dream of but knowledge in itself is not enough you have to take action and he took action and he was able for to prepare for this decline by having all of the food ready but how did this become a money-making operation because YF gave them food but they ran out of money so YF said okay now that you ran out of money now I need you to give me your properties your animals your everything else your cows are worth nothing if they're not going to eat your buildings are worth nothing if you're going to be dead the market has crashed the market has gone down 50 60 70% no one wants to buy anything because everyone thinks it's going to go to zero yadik takes step number two all of that money that you gathered now you buy when nobody else wants to buy everyone simply can't wait to sell everything they have because they think it's going to zero because it's a major crisis it looks like the whole world is going to get destroyed I'm going to go back to caveman times that's when you buy when everyone out there is literally throwing up and just simply predicting that this horror this depression will never end that's when you buy you take that cash you've been sitting with on the sidelines and that's when you buy you don't buy Market tops you buy when everybody's selling at a hurry it's a major crisis certain Investments have gone down 80 90% 95% that's when you buy yeah but if it goes down another 5% it's going to go to zero if it's a legitimate asset it can't go to zero it can go lower but not to zero you have to obviously be a you know a Sav investor to know what's worth what but you have to understand that you have to do this with preparation you can't sell when everybody else is selling and expect to make money you have to already be sitting on the sidelines for a while it could be even years and then when everybody else is selling that's when you put all of the money to work all of the money to work you go full in on the things that you've done research on and the things that you know what they worth and so on you put everything in there and after that you simply wait that's what did and it says says that YF acquired all of the land of Egypt for parau for every Egyptian sold the field because the famine had overwhelmed them and the land became peros here we see that step number two of money making is to buy when everybody is selling that is byy low byy Buy Low sell High that's where it originates from the toah but it's not buy low because you looked at some chart and eventually the uh the investment is going to go lower the Stock's going to go lower no that's not buy low sell High Buy Low sell High originates from the Torah where you are preparing by selling High first to gather cash and then you wait until it becomes obnoxiously and irrationally low and no one else wants to buy it that's when you buy it and then you reap the extraordinary profits why because eventually things normalize and that investment that went down 90% suddenly recovers 30% of the way there now that may not seem like much because if you owned it at where it was you owned it at 100 and it went down to 10 and now it's back up to 30 the guy that owned at 100 still down 70% in reality not much has changed for him but the guy that bought it at 10 or 12 or 15 that guy just doubled or tripled his money without it recovering to where it was at some bubble price we're not we're not delusional to think that things will recover to they used to be that's not how you make money you make money mostly by determined on your purchase price on the purchase price not the selling price not the uh fictitional price that a fluctuation every day that's how you make money in business regardless with it's real estate stocks or anything else in the world it's all determined based on when you buy it not anything else not the charts not the weather not the price president not the economy Nothing Else Matters simply put your purchase price will determine already whether you're going to succeed in investment or not again this is based on Market rationale everything of course is decreed by K whether someone will profit or lose is is determined by but if a person puts their and wants to be a Savvy investor if you're already going to be in the market and you're trying to be a millionaire know that millionaires are not being made today millionaires are not being made today millionaires that exist today already started years ago the only people that going to make money out of this Market are people that get out of this Market completely liquidate everything and sit on the sidelines as if they don't know what the market is they don't know what real estate is they don't know what stocks are they don't know what anything is all of their money is in cash and they don't talk about they don't think about nothing until everything crashes until they see the headlines of every newspapers that there's blood on the street streets everybody wants to sell everything the world is going to zero that's when they get the money out and that's when they start buying and they go full all in I've done this a couple times in my career when I was on Wall Street and that was the major success couple times that we had that bigger than anything else bigger than anything else now if a person wants to do that and that alone of course that'll make them very successful but it's not going to make them a likable person or a person that anyone admires what's going to be a true success if you do step number three step number three that says here here we have the last step and also the of allim it was worth it to be born just to listen to this k step number three of success real success not just monetary success is what yadik is teaching us now chapter 47 verse number 23 YF says to the people to the Egyptians look I have acquired you this day with your land for par here a seed for you SE the land at the in gathering of the Harvest you will give a fifth to par the other four parts shall be yours a seed for the field and food for yourselves and for your household and to feed your young ones remember what we said about extra for the young ones because they waste and they said you have saved Our Lives May we find favor in your eyes my Lord and we will be serves to par so YF imposed it as a statue till this day remember that statement till this day regarding the land of Egypt it was par for the fifth here we see that YF acquired everything that these people had they ate all the food that he already gave them but they still needed more YF says we already made our killing we already made all our money we already have everything I could turn you all into slaves I own you but I'm not going to do that only a tyrant does that only a pharaoh does that only a dictator does that I'm a Jew you know what I'm going to do I'm going to give you an opportunity to succeed how give them jobs give them opportunities he gives them back property their property the property they're familiar with and he says you work the land you do everything and all we want from you is a 20% tax rate that's it you keep 80% the property in reality is Mars we're giving it back to you we're giving you opportunities to succeed I can tell you listen you work the property you're my slave I'll give you 500 bucks a week I could tell you I give you 500 bucks a year the depending on where you live in the world I can tell you listen you work the land I'll give you 10% of the profits 20% of the profits yourf says no to make a society succeed you have to make sure that people have the opportunity to succeed in a big way if you want the economy to grow it is not based on the tax rate it's not based on the uh the uh the the technology it's not based on a lot of things what it's based on is do people want to be here and why would they want to be here because they see that there's an opportunity to make it big but if you tax them to such a point where you say listen you're going to do all the work and we're going to take half the prophets Guess what at all times those people that succeed are going to look for ways to cheat the system look for ways to pay less this is what happens in America and all of these other countries but the reason why Egypt grew tremendously whereby YF became the most powerful person in the world the leading economy in the world after this happened is because he gave everybody an opportunity to succeed by giving them the work by doing the kindness to them even though they were not Jews I'm giving you the opportunity to work I'm giving you the opportunity to make a lot of money you're going to make 80% of the money just be honest when it comes to paying back to the kingdom you pay 20% now this sounds good but this is where it gets better the says to us every sentence is a prophecy every sentence is a place where you can see a himself every sentence you can decipher the difference between our holy Torah and all of the garbage of the world that was created by man whether it be the New Testament the Quran and all the other nonsense that's out there in Buddhism and all types of idolatry this is where it makes a difference when our Torah says something it's not a superficial statement it's a guarantee here the Torah says that yourf imposed this statue of a 20% tax rate regarding the land of Egypt until this day is a referring to 3,000 years ago this day is today so I went and checked I went and checked YF put a law that the Torah said it's permanent until this day can it be that if you go to Egypt right now the tax rate is 20% well did the work for you you go to the internet you'll see tax rate in Egypt corporate tax rate 22.5 % personal income tax rate 25% now some of you are impressed wow it's 22% 25% it's close enough could have been 50% like America could have been all types of 90% like other countries in the world but Egypt it's close to what Tora says but then the nayay say ah whatever it's a coincidence show me 20% Then I'll believe you got it you got it 22% for corporations the law here is in regards to people regards to people says 25% 25% it says regards to people but that's if you look at a simple tax rate but in reality tax rate doesn't work like that in Egypt and in most countries there's a grid the Grid in Egypt is based on your bracket if you make 0 to 15,000 uh uh Egyptian pounds you'll make zero tax rate 15,000 to 30,000 20 two and a half and so on and so forth now for it to be a 20% tax rate in Egypt for individuals you have to make between 60,000 and 200,000 Egyptian pounds which is not very much money according to American Standards but nonetheless 60,000 to 200,000 you're paying 20% tax rate then you go and you look at what actually happens in Egypt you'll see that while the average salary for as far as the country itself cuz there's a lot of people there that make a lot of money it's 327,000 227,000 of the uh Egyptian uh pounds is $21,000 not much money but that's the average but in reality the most typical salary is 109,000 per year $7,000 forget about whether it's a lot of money or a little money according to your standards what is the salary the average the most common the most typical salary in Egypt meaning what is the standard there it's not the average the average is based on a scale where some people make a lot they make two three four million and the increase the overall average for the guy that's making 50,000 so that's not a real number the real number is the most typical salary the most typical salary in Egypt today December 2021 is 10,339 339 Egyptian pounds which is $7,000 going back to the grid is the grid said 60,000 to 200,000 20% tax rate anybody need any more proofs that the Torah is divine and everything else is garbage this is what prophecy looks like when the Torah said there's going to be a tax rate of 20% in Egypt until this day countless leaders presidents pharaohs and otherwise ruled Egypt and could have changed the tax rate a million and a half times and can change a tax rate tomorrow it doesn't make a difference why himself decreed the people in Egypt are going to pay 20% tax rate yeah but there's a we have even 25% no one's going to make that much money why because I decreed that it's going to be 20% tax rate so no matter what happens in the entire world Egypt decreed permanently to never have an a person is paying more than 20% taxes on the average why the Torah decided decided this anyone who understand such a thing this is unbelievable this is no different than a to telling us that the cotel the the Western Wall will never go down somebody could try to blow it up tomorrow it'll never happen this is no different than all of the other prophecies but this is something you can see with your own eyes you can go on the internet you could do the analysis yourself you can see how decides this is what the tax rate will be the tax rate rabai in Egypt is 20% why decreed it fulfilled it why that's how it works aad decrees fulfills meaning an entire nation comprised of millions and millions of people with everybody trying to make more money everybody trying to do whatever it is that they do to become more successful doesn't realize that the typical Egyptian will never have enough success never have enough success to go over this grid and pay more than 20% taxes but if the average does change where suddenly the economy in Egypt skyrockets you'll see how will manipulate the world and therefore lower the tax rate where everybody's just going to pay 20% even if they make more money why it was decreed in the tah and therefore it's true that's what Torah reality looks like that's what prophecy looks like these are things you will never find in the Quran in the New Testament in anywhere in the world a prophecy is not saying listen one day the this guy is going to come back from a dead and all of a sudden the sheep and the lion are are going to be best friends and he's going to ride both of them and he has long hair none of that stuff prophecy is decrees something that doesn't make any sense whatsoever and then he makes it happen he does it time and time again in the Torah and we see it with our own eyes today an entire country 3500 years later is still living with the decree of Yik 20% tax rate no matter what happens that's what we're going to be the tax rate in Egypt forever there will never be higher the average person the typical person will never pay more than 20% taxes this is unbelievable and gave me this gift today to find this and I think that this is no less great proof than all of the other proofs we've mentioned scientifically quite frankly I like this one better than others perhaps I'm a little biased because it's my uh rather than uh something that I read in other books but nonetheless this is verifiable this is something you could look at yourself you don't even need a calculator you could just simply go but will put these papers online just for anyone that uh wants us to sa the time and you can see this yourself who decrees what will be and we have to simply just catch up to realize that there's nothing in the world that could override what Hashem said with that being said hopefully you guys enjoy the K as much as I did perhaps at least close to it now we're going to take some questions and we'll go from there see I'm going to get a little closer to the screen so I can read it and also get my drink I already made a blessing for this before okay first question hi Rabbi this is by Michael GD uh GD okay I Rabbi question efforts of guarding one's eyes does it count if a person has the ability to completely blur out their eyesight specifically driving through a highway that has Imus Billboards I'm not understanding what you mean by blurring out their their eyesight uh if you're talking about uh a person can uh look at the single spot or do something with their eyes where they can't see certain things uh they can do that intentionally and at will then uh sure as long as it does not uh put you at risk uh you know life risk if you're let's say for example driving uh you can't uh really do that uh uh most of the time because you need to pay attention to the road unless you're not driving but uh if there is a uh billboard you could just simply look at the uh at the mirror or the uh the side the other side and avoid looking at the things everywhere um you could just focus on looking straight generally speaking you know there is a extraordinary reward for a person that protects their eyes not only uh do they not end up wasting seed intentionally and even unintentionally uh but also they have a better quality of life because their uh their focus and their Clarity is uh is much more significant than someone who does not watch their eyes a person who does not protect their eyes uh is not only uh uh not using the creativity that Hashem gave him the tools that hasm gave him in order to protect themselves but also is going to live a lesser quality of life he's never going to be happy with what he has she's never going to be happy with what she has if she looks everywhere uh then she'll always want something that she doesn't have she'll want a dress that she doesn't have she'll want a car she doesn't have she want a husband that she doesn't have he'll want a wife that he does she doesn't have even if he has one one another one and a person that looks and doesn't protect their eyes not just uh for the issues of morality and and and immodesty but just generally person that just looks freely at everything and everyone is going to have a terrible life so if a person can use different uh tools that Hashem gave him uh that such as blurring your eyes or looking at something uh straight at to the point where you have a uh narrowed Focus uh or uh different different visualised uh uh abilities that a person can have uh the uh in order to protect their eyes you should do it I mean there is a uh a way that uh you could look straight at something but not not see it uh this is something that I learned years ago where I could look straight at you but I'm not I don't I'm not paying attention to what you have what you have like I'm looking straight through you I'm looking at what's behind you or perhaps even nothing but you for for all intents and purposes you're looking at me and you think that I'm looking at you this is something that uh uh I learned to do years ago and uh there are all types of different things that a person can do in order to manipulate their Vision in order to protect their eyes uh uh in some way and yes whatever gift you have whatever talent you have or you want to develop to uh uh to do that you should do it the easiest thing that everybody can do is just simply look away look away that's the best tool that's the best tool in the world and even if you have these other great tools you're still going to need to use this uh this simple tool of looking away uh so that's that's important and if you do that you'll be rewarded both in this world and the next uh by the way I just saw one of the questions gets erased because the thread keeps going I think the question was by Michael Weaver so Michael if you you had a long question over there if you want to send it again I'll try to get to it okay the next question that I have here on the screen is by Sam Davis can a nonu pray T and does it do him any good is there any he can't pray uh no you the T which is Psalms is what is part of the writings of the tanak and is uh permissible and recommended for all of society both the Jews and the non-jews the uh the written part of the Torah which is the entire tanak uh is a uh not only recommended but an obligatory for uh for everybody to study uh in order to know the will of hem in order to know what is your purpose in the world whether you're Jew or Gentile so when a person reads T which are the uh the prayers and cries of uh compiled by Dav but were also written by other before him like Adu and other before him but you have that are different prayers and praises and Christ to hasem this could help anybody with a uh understanding of what the words are being said and uh and and does it it's very very good to do highly recommended for you to use it as your prayer uh this is also the reason why I don't think that noahides should make themselves like what's been made in recent years like uh noahides uh led by I don't know some organization that uh told them they should make themselves a prayer book a Sido uh in order to know what to pray every day in reality that's not really uh uh person should pray with their own words to hasem uh whether he's Jew or Gentile should pray with their own words but the Jews have an organized Sido because the sages instituted it for the non-jews you should not make a sid but rather you should pray with your own words and if you to read something that's already prepared the best prayer in the world is the is Psalms and don't think that I'm telling you to do anything different than the Jews because the vast majority of the Sid that we have and the M that we have in high holidays is psms that's the vast majority of what Jewish prayer is so uh it's the best thing for a Jew and a non-jew uh to read when they want to pray to hem is is is to read it is very very good for the sh and surely is very helpful next is coming by uh question by Charlie if we will be making babies after the resurrection of the Dead uh and there is no longer a yet does that mean all those Souls will be good and make geden after a thousand years uh yes so as far as what will be after mashia comes the rambam says we're only going to know for sure what will be after mashia comes once it happens we have some basic things that we know that are going to happen such as that the msah is going to come there's going to be a war of goou Magog uh there is going to be a uh a resurrection of the Dead uh and then eventually there's going to be the days of mashiach where there's the Salvation in the world for the last uh approximately thousand years of uh of this planet and then there Isa so there's a this world and then there's the world after it and then there's even a world after that but anyway the point is that it's a uh there is a debate of uh uh what's going to happen during that time of mashiach whether there is people are still going to eat still go to the bathroom uh still uh bring children to the world there's a debate uh between the sages and the rambam says we're only going to know for sure once it happens but on the argument that there will be children that come to the world then simply those children will be new perfect not that are uh that are sinners that need to uh fix anything they're simply going to be new uh or it's going to be people that have already completed their tun uh and they simply come to the world in order to uh serve hem without any uh yet without any evil inclination and so on uh there's nothing for them to fix it's just simply serving hem during the time of mashia uh that's that's what will be but uh yeah the all of the anybody that's going to be alive and survived the war of go Magog and uh uh is going to uh uh live in this world throughout those uh uh the last thousand years of the world and eventually go to uh to Heaven uh Jack is asking uh RAB I regret to inform you that I was unsuccessful at getting rid of the PS5 or the PlayStation uh that I bought my teenager but I made a deal that he would listen to shim while playing video games at least we came to a resolution oh and no no Manis or Mesa uh Only You Rabbi and a few others um as far as the PlayStation uh 5 uh part of being a parent uh we talked about I think last week or the week before that about uh how terrible game consoles are for children um and part of being a parent is is to make to tough decisions which means that you have to decide that you're going to do something for the benefit of the child uh even if that means that he's going to give you a headache about it for a few hours or even a few days or even a few weeks uh this is like uh if uh a father that knows that Shalom his child is uh deathly ill deathly ill and there was actually a real story like this uh and they uh they told the uh the father that uh if you know because something happened happened we have to keep this child awake for the next I believe it was 2 days and uh if he falls asleep is a very high chance he's going to die so the father's new job was simply to do everything possible to keep this young kid uh awake now in the beginning it was fun the kid likes to stay up late but then after a while the kid gets tired he wants to go to sleep and the father says no no no stay up stay up for a little longer so the kid stayed up for a little longer and were playing and they were playing and then the kid gets tired he wants to go to sleep and the father says no no no you got to stay up stay up stay up and the kid starts crying says I'm I don't want to stay up anymore I want to go to sleep no no stay up stay up I'll give you a present okay so this went on for a little while okay but then the night gets uh longer and longer and we're already into morning hours and the kid's dead tired he says I want to go to sleep and the father says no no no you have to stay up stay up and the kid starts hysterical crime just let me go to sleep I can't take it anymore and the father says no and the kid starts yelling at the father and starts yelling and and and and I hate you I don't why are you doing this to me you're torturing me I can't believe you uh what kind of father are you and the father obviously his heart is being ripped apart to 50,000 pieces but he knows that he has to do this to save this kid and he continues to do this and the kid starts screaming and yelling and hitting and doing everything possible and the father is doing everything possible to keep this kid awake even if that means he has to pinch him a little bit he has to move him a little bit he has to do whatever he has to do because he knows he rather have a little bit of pain a little bit of crying right now versus not having a son and this continues for a couple of days it may even be three days that this happened but perh it was definitely a couple of days and uh after that the boy went to sleep a lot of yelling a lot of screaming a lot of hating a lot of cursing a lot of horrible things came out but the kid survived and they were able to save the kid uh about 50 know 20 years later that kid told this story in his wedding and he says that I to to everybody in the wedding he tells him the whole story and he says I never thanked my father I never thanked my father for that day because it took me 15 20 years to understand completely why he did it because it hurt not just that night but after thinking about how did he keep me awake all that stuff it took him a long time to understand it but eventually understood it because if he didn't do it I wouldn't be here in doing the wedding so that's one of the difficult things that a parents has to know you have to make these tough decisions David uh was uh did not make that decision did not rebuke his son of Shalom and uh never told him no and the Torah says as a rebuke on of one of his sons of shalom that's why his son eventually turned on him and tried to kill him his son of Shalom tried to kill because he never David only showed him love only did what he wants him to do you know only uh you know let him play with the PlayStation as long as he listens to sh you know while he plays with the PlayStation Tora says that's not the way it's not the way you have to make the tough decision if he cries let him cry it's better he cries than you cry that he's serving some Idol or dating some Goya or marrying some Goya or doing all types of other things it's better you cry to he cries today than you cry tomorrow and uh that's the only advice I can tell you uh that is a uh 100% truth it's a to tell you oh it's okay you're you know he's going to listen to shulim while he plays PlayStation quite frankly I think it's a uh it's uh not not going to be effective just because uh when you are in those games and I remember as as a kid I used to play those games you're in a different world somebody could literally die next to you you wouldn't be able to tell the difference because you're in a different world so it doesn't matter that he's listening to shim those shim are not entering his n because he's filling it with all types of uh superficial and actual impurities that are are harming him much more than uh uh you know can help him and the Torah that's good he's not giving it the full full attention that it deserves for it to impact him so I again applaud you for trying to do it but I insist that uh you're going to thank me one day uh and even if you don't even if you hate me it doesn't really make much of a difference but I know that your son will be appreciated uh in 15 20 years from now that you took away his console and made him cry for a week he's going to appreciate it and you're going to appreciate it a lot more trust me when I tell you I deal with a lot of kids I deal with a lot of kids and the kids that have the most difficult time paying attention to a are the kids that are come from a uh place where they play video games I had a kid that was able to quote me quote me on different things that I said in sh he used to come to my shim he used to be able to quote me he used to uh do all types of things but eventually that kid turned upside down and uh and and then simply went back to his old ways I mean I believe he still keep Shabbat still keeps some Basics but he never grew past a certain point because he never abandoned the video games so yes he was able to use certain talents and abilities that hasm gave him to record certain things to say certain things but he was never able to overcome some of his physical desires some of his spiritual limitations uh and and really get to a point of actually opening a seph and reading it he just wasn't able to do it the most he can do is watch and the reality is as much as I love to uh have more and more people watch my by itself is not enough to get a person to its full potential you need and the books sh and the books especially people that got fired up from the and did or converted or both uh as a result of the they have to continue listening to that same Source permanently as long as that source is still good it's still valid it's still Co they have to continue staying close to whatever sadik got them to do chv got them to to to to the truth but for them to grow they also have to add books they have to add books people that play video games have a nearly impossible time reading books and really studying tah for a extensive period of time three four five hours 6 hours they it's almost impossible for them the same thing with people that watch television and movies and so on it's almost impossible for them to to sit there and read a book for 2 3 4 hours like some people are hearing me say these times like what are you crazy who has that kind of time if you learn tah four hours is nothing if you learn real Torah four hours is nothing uh it's it's it's but in reality people that you know don't uh don't study to to them it sounds like impossible for them oh yeah I studied an hour yeah isn't that good yes it's good if for a starter for a starter to learn for an hour is good but if you already in it for for for a couple years it's not enough you have to do more how much more as much as possible two four six eight how much do we appreciate you know you have to do more and that's that's how you grow if a person that's only going to watch is going to limit the uh the amount of growth that they could have uh both uh both knowledge wise and spiritually and the people that uh play video games or watch television are already the themselves giving themselves a disability a spiritual disability because what the uh uh what the videos do to a person is they train the mind for instant gratification they want instant gratification immediately when that person sees a movie he sees how the the editors cut everything so quickly where there's a constant stimulation to your mind of something happening whether it's visually or audio or both there's constantly something happening to keep you glued to that screen even more so with games there's constantly something happening constantly something that you have to do so it trains the mind to have a constant instant gratification so when it comes to actually solving real life problems whether it's marriage problems or child problems or business problems or all types of uh uh serious problems needless to say Torah problems Torah complications that require extensive time consuming and required thinking that could take hours if not days they simply can't handle it they can't handle it they can't hold a thought for that long they're used to arriving at a conclusion instantly there's a stimula there is a solution stimuli there is a uh some type of action happening as a result of it stimuli effect stimuli conclusion stimuli ta da da something happening all the time so a person that is giving this poison to their kid is is is simply giving their kid a a handicap uh when it comes to uh their life and their uh their ability to cope with real life problems uh and it's a uh again they people that play video games some people that play video games are brilliant people they're able to solve uh real world problems they could uh build Rockets they could do a lot of things but you're never going to see someone that's addicted to video games which is the vast majority of children today do anything useful in the world other than that you're never going to see them in a successful marriage you're never going to see them actually be a good uh uh husband wife or or or or or father because all of those things that you know that take time attention and and and and real investment requires something that they simply have uh discarded because of of of the video games and the screens and so on and this is also part of the reason why I myself uh uh you know at times would have a difficult time to to study certain subjects of the Torah because even though I was never an addict to video games I was never an addict to television still I spent enough time in front of a screen that uh you know that I was used to a certain amount of instant gratification I also read a lot of books uh as a secular person I an extraordinary amount of books so that helped me to a certain extent but again there still had to be an adjustment where I was used to arriving at a conclusion after a certain amount of time but then when you start learning Al it literally can take you five years to understand a certain problem it could take you five minutes the the the weekly parasa I've been studying every single year for I don't know the last 12 years or so but only this week did I see the new insight that I told you about today uh so sometimes you it's it's a culmination of events that and and studying that will get you to a point but if you cannot retain that uh consistent mind frame you're never going to get to that conclusion so I'm telling you again and I appreciate the question a lot and I appreciate your effort I'm telling you again it's worth it for you and your dear wife to push further suck it up accept the crying and simply take that play Playstation away and throw it put in the garbage shatter it to a million pieces and tell your son I promise you you'll thank me for it try to pafy him in some way if you want talk to him maybe I don't know take him to a to a zoo or something I don't do something that he likes to do uh that's not video games and I promise you this will be a a present that you're giving yourself as well as him because you're he's still young enough where he hasn't lost himself yeah hasn't lost himself to in his in his attention span to the digital world and there's been studies that I've read about how parents that give their children iPads and iPhones at a young age are actually ruining the development of their children they're ruining the development of their children where you see that the child that is given an iPad or iPhone at a early age you know as an infant he could instantly figure out how to play with it so it makes the parents think oh look my kid is really smart I only figure out how to play with an iPad when I was 30 or 40 years old this kid is you know a year old and he's already knows how to play with an iPad so it makes the parents believe that the kid is really smart in reality they just gave that kid a mental time bomb that uh is going to limit his his his learning uh to the extent where that kid more times than not is going to develop certain necessary skills like speaking later on in life uh and and other types of uh skills why because again it's very very addictive uh and it's problematic and uh I can tell you from my own personal experience when my uh uh daughter my first kid uh God bless her when she was born we gave our kid an iPad and we were fascinated by it watch she loved the thing she uh she she did all types of things I couldn't believe a little kid does it but then when we wanted to take it away we started noticing that it was simply impossible and she was literally on the thing you know for like hours and my wife and I have have been around the block for long enough to know when something is a problem and immediately we realize okay this is this is this is this is poison there's no reason in the world that anybody needless to say an infant should be addicted to anything uh digital at such an age like okay watching it it's one thing if it's kosher if it's this if it's that but to have such an addiction at such an age no this cannot be good and we went through the pain went to the pain of taking that thing and yes she cried and she complained and I think it was like three weeks or something like that of of uh of of dealing with it but uh eventually that uh that test was over and until this day none of my children play with iPads and iPhones and and anything yes you know we show them different digital things that my wife chooses uh you know that we already know what it is there is a there is a I don't know some type of Torah story all types of things that we know for sure our kosher that we choose for them we pick for them and they'll watch it for a certain part of the day uh yes as part of their education well they'll learn I don't know Al or they'll learn the uh ABCs or math different things both from books as well as digital I'm not against digital but to give a kid full control of the digital world at such a young age needless to say video games you're simply destroying that kid and I'm telling you from experience with thousands of kids thousands of kids this is a you're going to regret it if you don't do this and I know it's painful I went through it to a certain extent myself with with my kid and my other kids never never dealt with it and will never deal with it but yes I'm not against screens I know I'm very well aware that screens are part of the world today there is a digital media there is a lot of good stuff along with the bad stuff um I'm not anti iPads and iPhones and and and digital media but everything has to be given with a lot of thought with a lot of preparation and giving children control is simply a mistake that is going to uh uh be very difficult to fix very difficult to fix and I'm telling you this because I have the people that have listened to me and the people that haven't listened to me and then the people that just simply uh didn't even know and I see the results where their kids are and how much more uh they have to go through uh before they finally get the gist of things and when they get the point and when they develop uh and really the most valuable asset that person has is their mind and uh don't want that mind to uh be uh to to be ruined and and when you think about it there is nothing beneficial there's nothing beneficial about playing video games that is worth that risk some people will say yes there's certain benefits scientifically where it gives a person quicker analytical skills According to some studies which I've also read uh yes even if that is true that it gives a person quicker analytical studies analytical uh uh abilities uh uh According to some studies even if that's true uh it's still not worth the damage that it causes in other places uh the video games and uh one of the greatest things that or the worst things that uh the video games cause is they make a person numb uh and more numb to society to real life uh make people numb to real life numb to their feelings and and they make certain people live uh with with a uh delusional mindset of uh of you know thinking that they really are this important person on some I don't know Army team or something shooting people uh they they believe that they're really their their work on uh I don't know video games that uh build houses or whatever it is all these uh games they actually believe it's like important for the world um you know and especially the uh the people that watch other people play video games on like yoube tube um I mean I I I think that already speaks for itself that it's a very serious and deadly uh uh disease that people are actually gotten to the point where they watch other people you know play video games it shows how sick people are doesn't make any sense whatsoever um but nonetheless people are doing it millions of people are doing it and uh then you know people are surprised why is this guy still alone at 35 years old still living with his mother why is this girl uh not interested in getting married ever why is this person uh you know uh not fixing anything in his life why is this person not wanting to uh change and so on and so forth and uh you see that the the amount of losers that you have in society today is a greater percentage of the world than ever before you know in the in the past Generations you know children would work uh I know when I was a kid I started working at 10 years old uh that's not standard uh uh you know today obviously but uh you know and I don't necessarily recommend for people to get their kids to start working at 10 years old if they have an option not to but nonetheless uh today you have uh people getting their first job at 25 30 35 years old and I'm not talking about people that go to Yeshiva and they're learning and they're Scholars and no no talking about people that are simply completely secular okay they're not studying anything but they decide that they're going to do everything possible except work a normal job until they're 30 years old they don't even start their life until 35 years old that is a disaster when you have 30y old still living with their parents that is a disaster uh it's a disaster to society and it's a uh it's a real sad scenario perhaps it explains why the Japanese uh do not have any more kids and their society is on the verge of extinction because the average age in in uh in Japan is the oldest among all of the of the world to the point where if they don't change they will not be a Japan within the next few Generations because they don't have any kids uh but nonetheless I understand why they don't have any kids because the kids today uh if you're going to have one of these loser kids that's going to you know you bring them to the world you going to have to support him until he's 40 years old um perhaps it's better not to have a kid if that's going to be the kind of kid that you're going to have uh so again it's a uh important for a person to know if you're G to raise kids you're gonna have to make tough decisions you have to make tough decisions but that's because you're a parent and you know the uh the outcomes of things more than the kid will and you have to do it for him as well as for yourself and there's no doubt in my mind that you'll succeed as a result and the kid will too Michael and Page 27 B the sages considered replacing gel witha but decided not not to saying perhaps due to raan gel's resentment uh he would be divinely punished as he lacks the merits of his ancestors to protect him if the convert is a Ben then what more Merit could anyone have than aam who was an acquisition of hem okay so I'm not following what's the uh what's the question really um I mean as far as if you're comparing a convert to uh to the whole abaka story as far as um because RAB AKA came from converts uh yes I mean the thing is you have to understand is that although RAB AKA was a big sadik uh all the r AKA came from converts uh because everything that the sages did they dat for the sake of Hashem they did for the sake of glorifying the tah they uh they were not looking for fights they were not looking for alterations they were simply looking to magnify the Torah to magnify the Torah to do what's the best for the Torah but what's the best for the Torah also is best for its Learners so R AKA has students ra has students those students will uh will have to deal with those consequences and uh while ran Gamel uh perhaps wasn't uh viewed as great as R AKA uh the fact that he was already at that position he was also the descendant of DAV which means that he was fit uh to be mashia Anda was not fit to be mashia even though he got to the highest level of kadus uh the 50th level still he was not fit to be mashia uh that was one thing that ran gel did have over and even more so the fact that he was already in that position meant that uh you know there is going to be more damage to him and his students then there's going to be gain for RAB AKA and his students because whether AKA becomes the N or not uh in reality uh not much is going to change his students will stay his students whether he's Nasi or not uh but on the other hand if he uh ifan gel is n or not will make a difference why because people already view him as a certain person already has a certain job a certain role in the world whereas if you remove him from it some people will have uh comments to say say oh you know what maybe he's not that great maybe I'm going to learn from somebody else maybe I'm going to learn on my own and the sins that will come out of that as a result of and so on was too much of a risk was too much of a risk for um uh for for any for the sages to to think it's worth it uh and again that's what they said that raban Gamel uh surely would not be happy with the fact that uh that he would be removed uh but that could also lead to a Divine punishment he wasn't a bad person he wasn't aom so there's no reason for them to make such a change when the upside uh wasn't really all great because A's teachings you're going to get one way or the other is likea so it's one way or the other everything is good uh so the really there was just downside uh as a result of doing it and that's why they didn't uh they didn't make that decision it's not uh uh because uh only because R AKA was a convert but rather because of whoel was too uh as well as what the downside would be in one way or the other but either way in regards to comparing a a convert to a natural born Jew it all depends on uh on you know which what convert it is meaning if you're comparing a convert that's a that's a scholar uh then sure this convert is as extraordinary as it gets but if you're talking about a convert that's not really keeping he doesn't have the benefits and the blessings and the protection that uh that the Torah talks about those that protection those blessings are not just for anybody that converts but then becomes that they lose those blessings so that's also important to know it's not by default just like it's not by default for every Jew that's born Jewish or Jew in general to have a share on the World to come no you have to you know live as a Jew not just born as a Jew uh you have to die as a Jew live as a Jew yeah that so it's a there's a important not to uh uh summarize big topics uh so uh in such a fashion that uh we uh we think that oh you can just do this one thing and that's it doesn't work that way there's uh the bigger the issue the more pieces are involved but either way they were both great they both contributed to the world tremendously uh and to no end our oral Torah uh that we have today is uh is is thanks to RAB AKA uh you know because you know his students the 24,000 students that he had we don't really have their Torah they all died and the Torah that we have today is from his uh uh his five students that after the 24,000 students died uh he he restarted everything from scratch which is mind-blowing of its own and uh that's the Torah that we have in the world today literally millions of books are coming from RAB AA and his handful of students uh Robert is asking for a few years I've been giving out CDs for C without having to talk I've noticed that because I have a baseball hat since I haven't completed my conversion some Jewish people are reluctant to accept the CDs I feel that they might think it's missionary stuff and uh rightly so because the wicked missionaries are attacking Jews what can I do to improve these short interactions uh simply you could just say uh you know this is Torah from Rabbi you know whoever if it's let's say for example if it's me this is Rabbi youron ruen he's an orthodox Rabbi uh and uh and not uh and simply uh keep it simple don't um go into whole entire discussions I'm in the process of conversion but I haven't converted yet because the second the people he that you are in a process of conversion your credibility is in the garbage according to them uh because they feel wait how can you tell me to learn Torah if you're not even a Jew according to people that are uh not religious a person that's not a Jew is not qualified to help you needless to say teach you uh secondly uh even if you already complet completed your conversion uh and you told somebody listen I am uh you know I just completed my conversion here's some Torah many people are very superficial uh and they won't accept that advice so I I'd say you have to keep it shorten to a point uh Without Really discussing your own personal uh uh status just simply by saying I this is Rabbi such and such this is let's say Rabbi yon ruin he's an orthodox Rabbi it's a very inspiring story here you go and just move on simple and uh move on I think you'll have much more success uh Martin is asking uh my friend's daughter converted to Judaism but she and her husband are considered noahide okay they converted to Judaism but they're considered noahide they are thinking about purchasing a home in a Jewish Community uh in their uh in case their daughter decides to come visit from Israel with her children would they be able to do things like putting a muuza on their doors thank you um now to say that they're uh oh my friend's daughter converted to Judaism okay not okay I misunderstood I thought that your friends converted to Judaism I misread I thought your friends converted to Judaism but they're considered no hide okay okay so my friend's daughter converted to Judaism uh but she and her husband uh meaning your friend are Noah hides and they were thinking about buying a home in a Jewish Community okay in case their daughter decides to come would they be able to put a mza okay got it all right all right so putting on a muuza uh is not something that a non-jew should do uh even if it's a non-jew that's in the uh process of converting they should not put a muuza up until they complete their conversion and if they're not converting they should not put a muuza up and the reason why is because it could create confusion and people will think that that person is a Jew uh which could lead to a lot of problems such as desecration of hashem's name if let's say they see you drive on Shabbat and uh you're not Jewish so you're perfectly fine for you to drive on Shabbat if you're not Jewish but they think that uh you're driving on Shabbat as a Jew uh or perhaps they see you eating on uh you know uh Pizza on uh you know non koser or Pizza on PES all types of things so having a muuza is a big deal uh and it's uh highly highly advisable for non-jews not to have a muuza uh on their doors in fact forbids Jews from selling a muza to a non-jew forbids Jews from selling a mza to a non-jew it's forbidden for a Jew to sell a mza to a non-jew uh and I've had a couple of times more than a couple of times where different wonderful people that watch my sh that are not Jewish sometimes they're in the process of conversion sometimes they're just simply uh going to uh become the best Noah hides in the world and uh they decide to do something good and they figured let me add blessing the rabbi spoke about a muuza being a good thing so they figured I'll buy a mza and they send a order for I don't know a couple thousand dollar worth of muas and uh you know I don't know who everybody is so I ask everybody questions you know you Safari or you skazi or you this or you that to make sure you're giving everybody the right thing uh and uh long story short it has happened also within uh and multiple times I had to uh uh uh cancel the orders and uh refund people money uh and because they you know they were not Jewish and uh in one case somebody got offended the rest of the cases when I explained it to them that I'm simply forbidden uh from s muuza uh people understood it and in some cases actually told us listen Okay f I was just looking to do something good so just use that money for as a donation for the organization to do K I keep learning your thank you very much for telling me the truth and people appreciate the truth uh so again if you are a noahide because you're looking to do the will of hem you will not buy a muuza because we're forbidden from selling it to you and if you buy a muuza from a non- koser place or some internet website that you don't even know who wrote it then there's really no point in buying it in the first place uh just print it off your computer it's useless you know the whole point of a muuza is if it comes from a from a holy source to to a person that's looking to uh follow what it says but if you're not allowed to have if you're not allowed to uh sell it as a Jew you're not allowed to sell the muza to a noahide and the noahide should not have a muuza on their door they're allowed to own it but they're you know not to put it on their door but that's a very big test for certain people and I've seen way too many way too many uh no hies uh that were good turn into bad noahides as a result of them becoming too Jewish without actually becoming Jewish where they adopted so many of the Jewish laws that they simply have lost the desire to convert because they simply live as a Jew already and uh they keep whatever they want they keep kanuka you see them lighting the manur on kanuka they fast on yum Kip they eat you know matah on PES and you see them living like a Jew but they live in I don't know in Arkansas somewhere or in Montana or in Zimbabwe or wherever they live in the world there's no Jew to be seen except themselves and they're living like a Jew but in reality they're not Jewish and they no longer have the desire to be Jewish because they figure they're already doing everything unfortunately this is when a noahide becomes a bad noahide because they're inventing a new religion they're stealing MIT from the Jews and it's not a good thing uh unfortunately I've had encounters with a few of them some of them used to be my students and have turned against me because they thought that I was being mean I'm not mean to anybody I tell people the truth in order to help people uh if you find that mean then you know maybe you should seek mental help uh but uh the key is to understand that it's a uh if you're going to do things that are written in the Torah because God said it then do it the way God said it and not the way you decided and when I say God said it that also means how the sages of Judaism have interpreted it not have you interpreted it or he interpreted it or they interpreted it or even I interpret it it's how the sages have interpreted it and that's what happens a lot of times when people say no no I'm just listening to the Torah not the rabbis there is no such thing if you're listening to uh to the Torah that means you have to listen to the rabis the Torah is written Torah and the oral Torah and people that uh you know pick and choose what to listen to what not to listen to end up becoming bad noahides uh and end up creating their own religions and it becomes a very very problematic person uh and many times they actually even become anti-semitic uh which is the strangest thing in the world uh but nonetheless I've seen it quite a few times these types of people become the biggest haters of the Jews uh all they have to say his bad thing about Jews and they end up uh you know looking and act like Jews and I've even had cases where people simply decided to call themselves Jews they never converted they don't even know what the basics of Al are but they decided that they are not only they are Jews but they even call themselves Rabbi they even call themselves Rabbi they call themselves Jews some of them even make YouTube videos pretending to be Jews starting organization as Jews there is a lot of corruption out there a lot of corruption out there and uh and it's it's sad it's sad because why because these people end up becoming the a really uh big problem for those people that really genuinely want to convert uh because it's people like that that uh bring uh first of all they bring decrease bad decrease to the world uh second of all they uh make Judaism look terrible third of all they make the Jews look terrible and last but not least they make uh the Jews worried about converts because they see uh people like ashraa and his students that quite frankly are uh as much Jewish as the uh agori population that eats people in India uh you know they don't do anything that's Jewish other than simply mention certain things they don't like about the Torah they don't really do anything that's Jewish but nonetheless they consider themselves Jewish people like that it's better off that they were never born in the first place uh so again if a person wants to listen to the Tora they have to understand there's a place in the world for Jews there's a place in the world for righteous noahides uh and there's even a place in the world for Wicked people uh person should decide which one they want to be and follow what needs to happen in order to be that if a person is a noahide they should act like a noahide they should serve the Torah serve a and and and follow his Torah according to how the Jewish Shades is interpreted because quite frankly without the oral Torah there is no point in the world for the noahide uh there is no uh uh there's no place in the world that noahide uh would learn what to do how to do it or even that there is even a status of being a nohide or the significance of being a nohide so you can't say I follow the Torah while going against the sages doesn't make any sense it's a contradiction it's an oxymoron so again I'm not saying your friends are are doing any of that I'm simply telling you things that you know are on my mind that have something to do with your question so with your friends as far as they their daughter that converted to Judaism if she is a uh uh she is married uh obviously she would come visit them with her husband that's no problem but when it comes to uh uh their uh their food she has to know that she is still Jewish so even though her parents are her biological parents she can't eat their food uh they she would have to be the one that cooks and she has to bring utensils or they have to order kosher food and she has to take those things into consideration uh uh secondly uh the uh when it comes to uh um her uh uh her parents those parents should not uh move into a Jewish Community uh and uh adopt to the uh Jewish uh uh laws of let's say putting a muuza up and thereby looking like they're Jewish to some people because it create create confusion uh there's no shame in being a righteous noahide uh there's nothing wrong with it there's no reason for a righteous nohide to look Jewish they should look like a righteous nohide still modest still ethical still good person simply not Jewish there are plenty of good noahides in the world I don't understand why noahides are embarrassed of them being a noahide and they try to pretend like they're being Jews it doesn't make any sense to me if you're Jewish then be Jewish if you're not Jewish then don't be Jewish be a noahide and being a noahide it's a righteous noide is an extraordinary thing it's a fantastic thing you'll have a share of the world to come job the prophet job was a noahide there's a book in the tanak that's written about a righteous noahide I mean it's and it's not the only one there are other righteous noahides that I mentioned the point is is that there's no reason for a person that's not Jewish to look Jewish it just doesn't make any sense it's not it's not a plus it if anything it looks like deceiving it looks deceptive so a person that is a no hiy should not put on should not wear should not look like they're a Jew they should look like a normal noahide that looks like a respectable person and represent the tah according to where they are uh if they are in a process of conversion that's a different story then they have to start acclimating and looking more like a Jew but if they're not converting they're not looking to convert they should look like a noahide not like a Jew they should uh they shouldn't uh uh think that it's a negative thing to be a nohide it's a fantastic thing to be a nohide if you're a righteous nohide just like it's a fantastic thing to be a Jew if you're a righteous Jew but if you're a wicked Jew it's the worst thing in the world to be there's literally nothing worse in the world than a wicked Jew nothing worse in the world because even their punishment is worse punishment than the wicked nju so a person should know that uh they shouldn't be ashamed of their own Skin of Their Own uh nationality of their own status they should be proud of it as long as they're following the Torah and uh I I think that it's important for them to uh uh to have good guidance of uh of where to go and what to go and and and not necessarily try to uh to fit in anywhere just simply do the the best that you can according to what the Torah says uh and it sages and hopefully they have some type of Rabbi that they're uh learning from and that they're following that's giving them guidance and uh is going to tell them the truth and not just pacify them perhaps because of money or otherwise because unfortunately I've seen that too where people uh tell people whatever they want to hear just because they figure listen if I if I give him this this and that he'll give me money and then I could do good things with it that's unfortunately what led to a lot of Orthodox Jews getting millions of dollars from the Christian Church which is now uh showing its fruits of the amount of missionizing that's happening inside Jewish communities so uh nothing good comes out of Lies uh nothing good comes out of being fake uh nothing good comes out of it and that's why the Tora says from a thing of Lies stay away from not only don't lie but stay away from anything that looks deceptive stay away from anything that looks deceptive and that's why each time for example when I learn my there are certain things that it mentions in in in books and uh we review them each time and there are certain things that really you don't want to say them like it says it in the book A B C D okay whatever it says you read some Torah some one of the pages and you look at everything a b c d this looks amazing but then you have e uh and it's really terrible like you don't want to say it for whatever reason or another it's just one of those things where you hope you you could just omit it and technically you you can if you want to but we always choose not to Omit anything to Simply tell the whole truth completely so everybody knows this is what it is deal with it handle it manage with it think about it toil over it and don't think that oh he didn't give us the whole picture and therefore I found something else and da da da da no no we're going to give you the whole picture on a silver platter and that's what you're going to do that's what you're going to have and I think that when a person is uh real with themselves and honest completely and not being deceptive of trying to uh look like something that they're not they'll live a much more fulfilling and righteous life and uh although the uh the act that your friends are looking to do seems like a very nice act that many other people uh also want to do it's uh it's it's only something that will lead to more trouble uh than it's worth and uh and unfortunately sometimes that trouble can make them lose their eternity and I've seen that happen also unfortunately uh okay another couple of questions getting a little late but uh since my sh last so long let me get another drink Dennis is asking um or Denise Dennis I think it's Dennis sorry I don't know uh can you share some tips for a person to be able to get the most out of experiences that are not pleasant to go through yet there are Mercy from hasem Ser saving us to be able to figure out why something happened and what the mistake was that uh it was needed for one to go through and uh when the mind is not ideally clear so even if a person has an idea of what and uh uh of the what and the why it's difficult to trust okay so uh difficulty is something that exists in everybody's life there's no doubt about it everybody has difficulty both the uh young the old the male the female the righteous the wicked everybody has difficulty now a person needs to learn a lot about uh what is what is we have an entire series of lectures uh we have an entire series of lectures about that's called we also have a bunch of lectures about it as part of our Jewish ashfa series I would say at least 20 lectures over there speak about it and it's a very very extensive issue that constantly requires um strengthening meaning it's not something you learn about one time and you're finished uh it's something that you constantly have to repeat constantly have to remind yourself in order to develop a spiritual imagination spiritual imagination meaning that you have to use your imagination not just for business purposes and for uh for all types of other things but use your imagination in order to understand that whatever is happening in your life is for the best so I give you a couple of real life examples that I'll think about as I'm talking so for example there's a uh a righteous person that I know that when they were going on a shid to to find a wife uh they uh they uh made a uh a promise to themselves that whatever Hashem sends them they're going to accept meaning they're not going to say no to anybody whoever Hashem sends them they're going to say yes and not only yes to go on a date with them but to marry them this is a level ofuna that's very very extensive uh very high level and uh nonetheless this is what happened and uh to to uh to see something like this in real life is one of the great pleasures of my life that I've seen with my own eyes so anyway uh he uh was uh went on a I don't know I think it was one date with somebody or a few dates with somebody and then the person didn't want it didn't want to continue then he went with another person and that uh second person they went on several dates everything went great and uh they wanted to get married they wanted to get married and uh they started talking about marriage started planning everything the the families met everything looked fantastic uh there was attraction there was similar ideology uh everything was was fine you know there wasn't a uh anything really significant missing and he thought that within the next I don't know few weeks or so he was going to be married and uh suddenly he gets a uh a call that uh it's off and uh no discussion no discussion no explanation the whole thing is off and of course he uh was uh really uh uh hurt by it at that time uh but understood that everything is from Hashem everything is from Hashem there's no uh uh doubt in his mind and uh but he just wanted to understand why this was good and for for a while for years he uh he went through the thought process of why this happened I mean if she said okay I'm not attracted or or or the money or or or something that I could hold on to and rationalize it and understand it fine but simply everything went from being great to suddenly everything is off like why would God do such a thing why should I go through the turmoil the the emotional turmoil of thinking I found somebody to build a home with and now all of a sudden it's off with no explanation I didn't even do anything bad there was no arguing there was no issues simply one day we're on we're getting married and you know a few weeks later it's off no explanation no conversation no friendship no cordial uh uh con nothing strange why would God do such a thing well he has serious amuna he continued of course uh he asked the uh this question for years years but he didn't wait for years to get married he went on the next date and the I believe it was the next woman that he met that he ended up uh getting married to today they have a extraordinary house full of children uh all the good things in the world uh but still always a person that uh serves Hashem completely and learns this tah is constantly investigating themselves and why there was certain things that happened in their life and he always asked himself why this happened like what was the benefit of it fine okay he ended up meeting his wife and this was a stepping stone that surely meant that his wife was the best one but still that doesn't explain why would God you know do you know break this whole thing abruptly and then later on years after I think after they already had maybe three or four kids he ran into a uh a person that he knew from from Yeshiva and uh they started talking and so on and so for and person with Yesa said oh did you uh hear what happened to uh such and such he says no no I don't know what happened to such and such he goes yo you know he he's the one that married uh such and such person and he realized he's saying who's he marri this person he married that girl that that that he was supposed to marry oh yeah no I didn't hear what happened goes no listen they got married within a uh a year of marriage she got really uh sick and has been bed written and Comas and all types of horrible treatment ever since and uh now I think I believe that the the girl was like on uh either dying or or dead no children no nothing just simply a tragedy from the minute that they get married and then he says he didn't know but uh now he knows meaning he didn't know this whole thing happened but now he knows why did what he did simply was protecting him simply was protecting him from a life of tragedy uh because he deserves something else so a person that uh understands that whatever hasem does is always the best it doesn't mean that you'll like it right away uh it doesn't mean that you'll think it's the you'll think it's the best right away unless you understand that Hashem is your father and there for he's not going to give you anything that's against your interest when you truly understand your interest the problem is that we do not really know what our interest is we know what our desires are so we simply determine what our interest is based on our desires and we look at the picture of the world like I explained it in last night's lecture we looked at the the picture of the world as if somebody's looking at a picture right in front of his face so yes you can make up somewhat what's in that picture but in reality you're too close to the picture to really decipher the full picture as you get more and more distant from that picture you start understanding uh more of what's actually in front of you AEM on the other hand he looks at the entire scope of the picture not just what's on that picture completely from a complete uh distance but every single thing that will ever have something to do with that picture and he doesn't make a decision without determining all of the factors meaning that as the says that there's not a a finger a finger that's ever pricked by a needle without there being judgment in heaven that this is the best thing to do what does that mean it means that before causes any type of damage to a person's life he has to determine everything that's going to affect it and be in affected by it so therefore if let's say for example there is a person that is decreed that this person is going to dieom okay horrible thing now before that decree before that decree there's a judgment that he's going to but before that's decreed and it's official hem has to evaluate everything because the Satan comes with the case prosecution this person did such and such he deserves death penalty he comes with his case he's the prosecutor and he has has a valid case the person does deserve death penalty he did something that deserves a death penalty according to the law but doesn't work only according to the law in plain sight he looks according to the law that affects everybody and now he looks okay this person is uh deserves to die let's see who's going to be affected by it he sees oh the person's uh spouse is going to be affected by it do they deserve to have the suffering of having somebody die let's see he looks at their entire account oh yeah over here they have they made a similar sin and they deserve to die themselves needless to say to have somebody die so they deserve it okay moves on to the next chapter the parents oh do the parents deserve such a horrible punishment which is one of the worst punishments or the worst punishment you can get in in your life uh in your lifetime is to is to have a parent uh see their own child die uh and this is a horrible thing and hasem evaluates do the parents deserve it did they do something that warrants such a suffering if it's determined yet shom then he goes to the next chapter he goes to the kids and then he goes to the uh other people and uh he goes to let's say people that uh he works for people that work for him people that he knows and so on and so forth and he looks at everybody and has to determine the same conclusion for everybody and what ends up happening is that say wait a minute this person everybody in his immediate circle deserves it but there is somebody that he knows from 20 years ago that was in the same class as him and that person has grown in tah exponentially that person is aad that person is an amazing person that does not deserve anything bad and when that person finds out even though he hasn't heard from him in 20 years surely if something like this happen the world will the word will G around and that person will hear that his old friend from 20 years ago just died and he will have pain as a result of it starting to think oh maybe I should have talked to him I should have reached out and he does not deserve that pain and cancels the decree of the Satan cancel the decree of a Satan why not because the guy doesn't deserve it because some sadik that he knows from 20 years ago doesn't deserve that pain so the when a person understands the the the the amount of judgment that and evaluation that goes into every single decision surely it becomes much easier to understand why everything that Hashem does is 100% perfect the best the greatest and in fact if we knew the truth from hashem's perspective we would have done much worse to ourselves we would have done much worse to ourselves that's why actually the uh and the Z and other places say that when a person goes up to Sham and has shown all of their sins all of their actions that were against theem in this world they ask and plead with hasem to throw them into geham they ask to be thrown into geham because of the embarrassment that they have because they now see the full picture they see the full picture so it's say when a person understands that if they're going to a job and uh they get instead of arriving at that job and getting that million dollar contract instead they get a flat tire that's not because God hates you it could be because God doesn't want you to make money but it could also be because God does not want you to make that particular money why because that person that you were about to sign a million dollar contract with had you not gone into that accident that person is a litigious person where everybody that he does business with he ends up suing them and ends up getting everything back and more and Hashem does not want you to do business with such people and end up losing money as a result many times people do big deals and they end up losing more than they gain you know why because they do business with the wrong people so it's it's important to know that if there's certain amount of money that's de Creed that's meant for you no one in the world can take it from you and a certain amount of money that doesn't belong to to you no power in the world can give it to you it doesn't belong to you even if you steal that money hashm will take it back in one way or the other so it's important to know that whatever hasem is going to is doing for you uh that's out of your control because your control is simply whether you're going to do things according to what Hashem said or not whether you're going to serve Hashem or not that's that's what's up to you as far as the things that happen in a person's life whether they'll succeed in money they'll fail they'll they'll get married they'll be single they'll uh have kids not have kids live die all those things are determined by hasem so when a when a when a person understands that really uh everything in life is determined by hem except whether you're going to serve hem or not then they know that since Hashem wants me to serve him and in reality that's the only thing that's in my power and everything is in his power then surely everything that Hashem is doing to me in my life is in order to to entice me to serve him better even if that means that hasem is giving me a difficulty that makes it more difficult for me to serve him it's not because doesn't want me to serve him it's because Hashem wants the difficult servitude from me he wants me to cry he wants me to cry he wants me to learn to through suffering he wants me to still pray to him when I'm in pain he wants me to uh to uh to say I love you even when I feel feel like I'm on fire he wants me to say that I can't wait I can't wait to serve you even if that means that I'm going to be destroyed in the process he wants me to say thank you Hashem for taking everything he wants me to go through the suffering and if that's what he wants and I'm here to serve him then what's the problem this is why uh the uh the bmov says that if he want if he goes up to Sham and in heaven they decide that they're going to throw ran G he's only going to ask them one question is that what God wants and when they tell me yes he says I'm going to run to get why my whole life my whole point was just to serve hem he said my whole life was just to serve AEM if what hasem wants for me is to jump into fire and get destroyed then I'm I'm running because my only point in the world is to serve hem so the more a person understands that they're in the world to serve hem and therefore Hashem whatever he does for you and does to you is for you to serve him even better than what you're serving him which means that when you serve him through pain that's exactly what he wants when you serve him through suffering that's exactly what he wants when you serve him through Prosperity that's exactly what he wants when you serve him through every other way you serve him more that's exactly what he wants what he doesn't want is for you not to serve him not to pray him not to learn about him that's what he doesn't want so all of the things that he gives you all of the things that he takes from you is for you to use those tools to serve him better and when a person understands that that's the whole point they got the point in life they figured out the trick they figured out the code to life to cheat code to life um all right next uh wrot a Jack said he wrote a song uh about the Heretics the Heretics say a little bit of manace in my life a little bit of Mesa by my side a little bit of slifkin all I need a little bit of Rosman is what I see a little bit of mous in the Sun a little bit of mazik King all night long a little bit of Goldberg here I am not Mambo Number Five but Gom number [Laughter] seven we're not happy they're going to go to Gom we we would love for them to uh to do Chua but uh we'd also like for uh uh you know whatever happens first but I get your I get your humor I like it fine uh David is asking uh this was a question from last Wednesday how can one stop procrastinating and be more productive in anything that he does in life I think the last question answered it uh if a person is here to serve AEM uh then they and they know that hm is the one that's running the world and the whole purpose purpose of you uh being in this world is to serve hem uh which is what's going to get you the greatest benefit in history uh the greatest benefit ever uh that a person should be uh uh should never procrastinate and should constantly do whatever they can to push themselves uh to do whatever they can uh to to bring more good to the world if that means that you uh uh having a better job uh is going to give you the better ability to serve hem because you'll be able to live in a better Community then that's what you have to do if that means you have to wake up earlier then that's what you need to do the begins with uh to to uh uh wake up early and uh and be zealous to uh go chase after we learned that from abuu when told him to uh you know do the with with with uh really could have done it at any point during the day could have done it at any particular time butu woke up he woke up early early in the morning 4:00 in the morning 3:00 in the morning he woke up to go do the even though that means he has to go uh kill his favorite son his only his main son uh his real son he's going to kill him but he did it early in the morning why because if I'm here to serve hem I'm going to do it to the best of my ability because at the end it's going to be to my best interest to serve hem at the highest level same thing with mosu m was told by hasem that after this war I'm you know you're going to die so mosenu did not delay he literally went to war right away when the people found out that he's going to die after this war they didn't want to go to war they wanted to procrastinate M says no such thing we have to do the will of hem immediately there's no such thing as procrastinating we're all here to serve hem because serving hasem is the only purpose we have in the world if a person doesn't serve hasem there's no point for them in the world uh as far as to their interest there's only point for for Hashem to use them uh to uh to to do things in the world but they have no benefit of being in this world if they're not serving hasem so if a person is a procrastinator with uh with the things uh in their life then they're going to procrastinate with their servitude of hem and if they can procrastinate with the servitude of hem that you could think that okay if I'm procrastinating with praying for hem if I'm procrastinating with studying Torah if I'm procrastinating with doing Mitzvah if I'm procrastinating with giving takaka if I'm procrastinating with all the other things of that has to do with Hashem uh alongside procrastinating also with work and with marriage and with all the other things but I'm also procrastinating with hasem then guess what uh don't be surprised if Hashem procrastinates by you know putting breath in your lung procrastinates giving you money to to eat procrastinating with sending you things that you want so what would you feel if hasem just simply decided you know what what he needs air okay let me let me wait a few seconds before I give it to him what he needs food he's hungry you know what let me wait wait a couple of days before I send them food uh what he uh he needs uh kids let me uh wait 10 15 years uh before I send him a child so a person needs to understand there's a mid there's a measure for measure it's not a game it's it's it's a simple rule that institutes in the world he operates with us the way we operate with him and there's a measure for measure judgment if we procrastinate our servitude of hem then surely uh he's going to you know we're we're bringing procrastination to ourselves the blessings that we want will be procrastinated uh so a person you know that thinks about it in that way obviously does not want Hashem to procrastinate and not give him kids for 20 30 years doesn't want Hashem to procrastinate and not give him food for two or three uh days doesn't want to procrastinate with anything people want everything they want on demand so but they need to know that if they procrastinate with hem then they um they're going to get a lot of difficulties in their life now person can now say yeah no no I don't procrastinate with Hashem I just procrastinate with everything else not possible not possible it's not possible to not procrastinate with Hashem and procrastinate with everything else why because first and foremost the evil inclination the first thing that it's going to cause a person to procrastinate with is with AEM before anything else they people are always going to be more zealous to go and serve this world go make more money go find more women go find more men go find more honor go find more materialism much much more than the they're going to go find AEM so there's no such thing as a person is more uh uh procrastinating with uh with this world and not procrastinating withm no there's a person that's procrastinating uh typically is procrastinating with Hashem first uh and uh and the the other reason why is because when a person does not procrastinate with Hashem meaning when a person is zealous to go and do the will of hem that in itself that level of servitude in itself to hem makes the person not a procrastinator in everything else why because the servitude of hem requires you to wake up early requires you to be dedicated requires you to be organized requires you to be uh consistent persistent uh to to to be uh uh someone that's serious the servitude of Hashem is a full-time job and that in itself breeds good skills and and habits everywhere else so it's if a person has a procr inated they should know the first thing they are procrastinating is their servitude of hem which will only yield them a procrastination with the things that they want which is the blessings and if Hashem says you know what okay I'll procrastinate your Heaven also how about this we're not going to send you to heaven for a thousand years instead we're going to send you somewhere else kafak Gom all types of other wonderful places that perhaps maybe you don't agree they're wonderful so a person needs to understand you can't play games with hem can't play games with hm hasem is is is the king of all Kings and he brought us into this world to work full force full force when a work when a person works for hasem full force certainly they're can to have a much fulfilling life and much more righteous life and uh they'll benefit in every aspect of the world okay last question it's almost three hours uh let's see um Foundation just comments comments comments okay does hasem expect the Nations to slaughter their animals in a quick and painless way would it make sense if all slaughter houses of the Nations uh also use the slaughter method of the Jews uh no they're not obligated to do slaughtering like the Jews no uh the only obligation for the non-jews is for the them not to eat the animal while it's still alive uh which unfortunately is uh something that people in Asia uh in other places in the world do they eat animals while they're still alive uh this is a violation of the seven noahide laws uh it's very vicious very gruesome disgusting but unfortunately it's uh it happens it's common even in uh in China in in other places in the world uh you know where they eat different animals alive it's horrible horrific uh thing but nonetheless it's it happens so that's the main law that the Gentiles have uh when it comes to food they could eat whatever they want as long as it's not alive when they're eating it as far as how they kill it it's uh it doesn't matter um what I have given the seven species of Israel are based on many measurements such as kazite of bread uh is required to join a zon if the these fruits return to massive size during the era of mashiah as when the 12 Spies entered Canan then the basis of these measurements will be radically changed how can this be resolved uh no the uh the the um the measurements that were made uh where they're using the kazite as a olive and a uh uh uh um all of the other things that they're using as a food is based on what it was what the fruit was when that measurement was made it doesn't actually have an actual connection to that fruit like if let's say instead of it being a Zite it there was I don't know uh some other grain that was common uh that they would use and that's what they would use but they chose the kazite because that was the most common being one of the seven species uh but also that was the proper specific size so even if uh things returned to what they were massive size of of uh uh grapes and massive size of other vegetables and so on uh first and foremost that does not change the original uh law that was decreed uh you know in the Torah in and by instituted by the sages uh based on the sizes that it was everything is based on what it was uh at the time it's instituted and not what it became and I'll give you an example if let's say a uh you know somebody has you know uh two stamps okay he has two stamps each stamp is worth a million dollar all right because there's only two stamps like this in the world and each stamp is worth a million dollar now he invites uh you know his friend over to the house and he says I want to show you my stamps each stamp is a million dollars why are there a million dollars I'm not understand stamps oh it's a million dollars because there's only uh two of them in the world he says oh wow okay great let me see see he takes one of the stamps and he rips it in half and he says uh what are you crazy what are you doing you owe me you owe me money he goes no actually you owe me money because according to my calculations he takes out his calculator he takes out his iPad his iTunes his all these different things and he has statistical analysis done it says since now it's the only one in the world in fact your stamp is worth $10 million so in fact it's not only do I not owe you a million dollars but actually you owe me $5 million because I just made you a bunch of money so I'm not going to take all of it I made you $8 million not asking you to give me the whole $8 million uh after all you uh you did do uh keep these stamps but I'll let you keep 3 million you give me 5 million you're still profitable you have $5 million in your hands now obviously a person that thinks about this if they think about it logically it makes a lot of sense technically he uh he just made him a lot of money perhaps you're not going to agree to give him $5 million but you would think okay you know what maybe you did me a favor now there's only one stamp now my stamp is worth $10 million he goes to an auction they agree it's worth $10 million he sells it for $10 million you would think oh you know what at the very least you should give him a you should give him a million dollar because he's the one that helped him helped him get the price of the stamp that was worth1 Million into $10 million even though he lost a million he gained uh eight so the point is you think oh so maybe you should give him a million dollars give him something Ty of fee something Ty of commission absolutely not not only does he not owe him any commission for what he did and the guy owes him money the guy that ripped a stamp so the qu second question comes up is does he owe him what the stamp was a million dollars when he ripped it or technically what the stamp is right now it's a $10 million stamp does he owe him $10 million right now because technically that's what the stamp is worth right now $10 million and the answer is he owes him $1 million why at the time he ripped the stamp that's what it was worth it was worth $1 million and the is determined based on what it was worth at that time and not what it became in the future not what it became in the future and also has a situation where if let's say somebody stole a beam stole a beam and uh and took that beam and uh put it in a building build an entire building umpire State Building it's a $100 million building but that beam is holding the whole thing now you going say oh that's my beam I want the beam back I want you to destroy the whole building if you don't give me half your building I want you to destroy the whole building because I want my beam either give me half of this hundred million or give me my beam which would require you to lose entire $100 million what is the law over there the law is you would think okay technically he should pay him he should pay him but how much should he pay him should he pay him the price of the beam that's let's say $10,000 or should he pay him you know what he wants 50% of the money because technically the whole building is on this beam or should he pay him some other negotiated price perhaps 5 million two million what kind of price should he pay him said that not only does he not pay him a does he not destroy the building but he doesn't pay him an ounce more an ounce more than what the beam was worth at the time he took it and he does not destroy the building how much was the beam worth when I when I took it10 $1,000 yes I know I stole it it's not right to steal but you do not benefit out of my stealing so I'm simply going to give you if I can give you the beam itself without destroying what I have no problem but if I can't give you the beam I'm going to give you exactly what it was worth when I took it $1,000 that's all you get not a penny more no interest no nothing why cuz our the is determined based on what it was at the time at the time the event took place so when the sages instituted these specific measurements and used specific things Kaz and and so on they were using them because again they also had extrapolations from a t where T used specific uh uh verses and they said this is what it is this is what it is so the first thing is to to answer your question is it was determined when that Z was that size not when it would would be at the time of mashia which is an exceptional time and not at the time that it was at the time of M which also exceptional time we don't make Al based on exceptional times we make Al based on the standard time which is at the time the is made uh so that's one secondly even if everything you know the the fruits grow tremendously it doesn't mean that all of them will grow there's still going to be some what we consider normal size and also some that are extraordinarily blessed so you'll have a combination of both thereby not causing any any contradictions in the Torah whatsoever where even the what was decreed by the sages and used by the sages originally could easily continue to be instituted uh at the time of mashia when that time comes thank you again everyone for learning to with me it is uh late it's three hours we've been talking uh okay one more question if you host a friend and I and I'm converting can I force him to accept the noahide laws no you can not force anybody to accept anything uh but if you're hosting him and uh you invited him to come to you uh then you know then you have to tell them we have uh we have certain laws I expect you to respect if you're not going to respect it uh either leave or I'm not going to invite you again uh but if a uh if a person is uh just shows up at your house then uh tell them you know same concept tell them if if you don't uh uh accept my respect my uh laws then you know you have to leave but you cannot force anybody to accept anything can't force anybody to accept anything not Judaism and not uh uh noahide uh okay last one Isabel is asking please go can you please go through the proper way to do aala meaning uh we do the prayer then how much of the uh wine are we supposed to consume what do we do if if we have left after that amount do we need to do a prayer if we decide that we wish to drink it uh after uh we put out the candle and if I may please explain the best way to take out the candle uh to do uh okay soala is a follows you have a where so you have abala where all have a in them and uh the it depends a um it depends if you are uh uh you have the custom of doing some of the extra blessings or not uh there are certain extra blessings that could make abdala take you know four or five six times more time but they're spiritually more extraordinary and there's a people that just fulfill the basic requirements which is uh just say some of the basic blessings the you go to that you don't do any of the additions and again that's everybody has their own uh um customs of what they add or not but the basic requirements of the abala is first to do the uh the you do the blessing of but at that time you do not drink you don't drink the wine but you look at the wine to see your reflection especially reflection of your forehead the said that some someone that does not find uh the reflection of their forehead uh on the wine uh meaning after seriously looking sometimes it takes a few tries or you have to look at a few different shades but someone does not see a reflection of their forehead on the thing should be concerned for their life to be concerned for their life so when you do the blessing of the Gin you simply look at the wine and see your reflection you do not drink after that you do the blessing on the uh on the Bim um uh the Bim is a uh you take something you smell it uh something that smells good incense of some kind uh you could use pretty much anything that smells good uh you smell it and uh you have to make sure that you know what it is whether it's if it's a some type of tree of some kind uh you know a branch of a tree then it's a if if it's some type of flower then it's if it's a some type of incense or something like that then it's so make sure you do the right blessing and then you do the uh now the is you light before you start abdala which means that you have to start abdala after the uh the Shabbat has ended already you don't start aala before Shabbat ended uh so you light the fire before you start aala and when you do the blessing of you uh take your uh uh fingers your finger your finger you take your hand like this you cover your thumb and you move put your hand next to uh the the fire not too close you don't have to burn yourself or anything but close enough that you can see reflection of the fire against your fingernails uh making them more shiny and so on and then you turn it like this meaning the opposite of what my hand is where you constantly seeing the the back of the hand but now this time without the covered thumb some people have different Customs the point is to see the fingernails which is to remind yourself that you're going from the holy to the mundane just like a uh ad made a mistake of uh of uh uh you know making a mistake in ganeden you should know that he as a result uh went down uh in his uh in his significance you are going from the holy to mine but don't go down meaning stay holy the whole week stay holy with your Kusa stay holy with your Torah and so on and so forth so that's in essence the reminder from that uh Fire part then you do the last blessing which is that's that blessing then you drink pretty much the whole cup whatever you have should be three ounces should be three ounces you drink the whole cup uh you know as quickly as you can uh that's really what you're supposed to be doing you're not supposed to be like sipping it and then you know giving it to people or anything or sipping it and like drinking it the whole night supposed to in essence drink the whole thing uh drink the whole thing that's why person that can't drink the whole thing shouldn't you know get one of these cups that's too big uh that's like 6 ounces or 7 ounces and it's tough for them uh if a person has a difficulty drinking wine they could drink grape juice instead just as long as they drink the quantity it should be 3 o is what they should drink and they should consume it as fast as possible uh literally should be within a few seconds that not like uh uh don't take like 10 minutes or 20 minutes walking around with it or anything like that like you should drink it as soon as possible uh and it should be three ounces um now if a person cannot drink wine they could drink grape juice uh kosher grape juice is very common you should drink it I ideally you should drink wine and not just wine but wine that's so it's ideally it's best to drink wine that's uncooked wine that's ideal for aala okay uh but if you uh can't handle wine it hurts you or something like that which is common uh then you either have to find a wine that doesn't hurt you or simply drink grape juice but even if grape juice if grape juice affects you then give somebody else the uh the uh the uh uh the wine to drink give somebody else the wine to drink uh or perhaps even give them the the the the thing to doala Al together but if you want to do the abdala and somebody else drink the wine you technically can do that if that's the case they could drink it uh that's that now after you have drunk the wine then you do the last blessing uh which is the shal that is the blessing for drinking wine uh and that's it after you've completed that uh uh that uh uh blessing you're officially done with aalah now some people will say yeah no abdala is really finished after you've drink the wine yes technically you're right abdala is finished after you drink the wine uh but you still have to do an ending blessing for drinking the wine so you have to do that now what about the uh the uh the candle uh the way we do it at my house is is as follows I learned from he is an extraordinary one of the head he's the son ofi which was one of the also and a huge and Rafi says that people that pour their wine on the fire of the candle to shut off the fire are desecrating the wine they're desecrating the wine it's inappropriate uh to pour it from the glass from the cup on the uh on the uh candle to pour it out it's not appropriate it's desecrating the wine so how do you shut off the wine uh there's a couple of ways uh one way that you can do is that uh typically when uh there's a custom that people have to fill up their cup of wine all the way to the top now of course unless you have an extremely Steady Hand like a sniper from the uh from the Navy SEAL uh typically you're going to hold a cup and there's going to be some wine that pours now let that wine pour onto that plate that's under you now that wine poured onto the Cup by itself you're not pouring it yourself it poured by itself because you know it's moving that wine that's on the plate you're allowed to use that wine to shut off the candle that wine you can use because that's not wine that that was part of the blessing that's not wine that is an Essence That was supposed to be drunk that's wine that poured out that's fine that's fine cuz no one's going to drink that wine that's not really wine that people drink so that wine you can use to shut off the candle you could use that wine for Thea of touching the wine and then putting it on your head for memory and all types of other that have to do with that particular wine that poured by itself not that you're pouring it and now half the glass is on the cup and you think that you're a genius no the wine fell by itself because you filled it up to the cup like it says in t that the uh the wine uh the co is a uh the cup is filled up all
