#531: Amida: V'Lamalshinim (Part 13 of 13)

S series is generly sponsored by the Saka family and sponsored as well by informant tonight we will please God finish up the the additional composed by at the request of II during the time of the to off what was the greatest threat that R describes the greatest threat at their time and that was the meim those who sought to compromise and corrupt to undermine our M so we last left off to finding what seem to be synonyms but there are no synonyms s ofab differentiates between these words our hope our wish our Dream for the Zim and for the for our enemies and for those with malicious intent we want to uproot them we want to break them into factions so they can't cooperate and be effective we want to cut them into small pieces and lastly s we want to Humble them so we left off with the question why is s to Humble them why is that the last the Crescenda the climax that should be the first to Humble people seems to be the most moderate response the least intense response then crush and uh and uh break and divide and uproot so why is it the last one so one of our mpal my friend fur suggests the following that maybe the word s is not meant to be the last on the list and the most intense maybe it's in parallel maybe that you have separate than the others so you have S and separately the tells us several approaches why Esther invited hamon to her party why did she invite hamon why not go right to I know P getting you ready for next pum why not go right to and say hamon's nefarious plan is against me and my people a he's trying to destroy us so RAB is the first of the to chime in and RAB a go Raba quotes a PK in the 16th paric of mishle that Esther understood it's the way of theem to raise the Russia to raise the wicked to elevate them to a position of prominence to make them popular to make them famous to make them powerful to make them prominent in order for the downfall to be even more painful in other words we have an expression in our vernacular what do we say the bigger they are the harder they fall so sometimes makes somebody big so the bigger they are the harder they fall so Raba answers why did Esther invite hamon it was all a ruse it was a setup to make hon field he was prominent he was a big influencer famous celebrity invited to the party of the queen first party the second party all to set him up the bigger he is the harder he would fall so maybe He suggests upro break and crush is a progressive destruction but s is an independent F the downfall of the mighty oppressors that should be humbled let them think they're large let them think they're big let them think they're powerful and then the greatest destruction of them is s to Humble them to bring them down to reality to realize they're not powerful at all and then we conclude we conclude this we seem to repeat from the BR itself we bless hem Who is the CH is in what tense HOV the present tense we're not describing something in the past we continue to live through times when there are ideologies and philosophies when there are people and forces who seek to corrupt and compromise our M our yish kite they continue to threaten us not only physically threatening us with assimilation threatening us with false and unfamiliar ideologies so that's not something relegated to the past as the R continues to be an enormous threat now and therefore is not Shar it's not in the past he continues he continues to Humble last night Iran is enormously humbled they deserve to be humbled much more but enormously humbled what could be more humbling than thinking your great diverse recipe of of missiles and all of them none of them make it the airspace they're shot down they're ineffective he continues to be him he continues to break our enemies continues to break our enemies he's the crusher of enemies and and he is the subd doer of the of those who are of those who are insolent of those who are the zimand the great writes that what does it mean the present tense to the point of total Destruction they're unrecognizable they don't exist to the point of Extinction that's our break them destroy them to the point of total and utter destruction distinguishes between the and the the get they're broken the Z get they're simply humbled as we spoke about why so points out he says our enemies have to be broken because they want to harm us directly Z are the broad category of R so maybe humbling them is enough they don't have specific plans how to destroy us they're just generally bad people so therefore if they're humbled maybe they'll return and therefore it would be enough to Humble Schwab disagrees not explicitly to's parish is different and he says that means enemies who want to destroy us physically they want to annihilate us they want to exterminate us so the response can only be it's also them so the answer is them it's them throughout history has made it it's them it's never going to be us even though there are some bumps in the road and tragically casualties way too many than we want but ultimately on the whole it's always going to be them it'll never be us but those who make it user them show it'll always be them Z are evildoers who want to corrupt us spiritually so doesn't need to destroy them he needs to Simply undermine their efforts for them to not be able to if they're humbled and they'll be ineffective through being humbled then they won't be able to prosze or to infiltrate they won't be able to ultimately be able to bring us down they won't be able to destroy us so that's this it's a very powerful and important to have for in our time we mentioned a few weeks ago the that one fulfills the of to remember if you have during this if we think about who are the amalik or equivalent in our generation there are periods even of our own recent history where it was hard whatav do you have these Z are communists Z other enemies we had some stretches where it felt who who should we be thinking about during this but now we're in a we're in a period where should take you a long time to say because you get stuck at this bra this BR alone the kav to have Kamas Hezbollah Iran leaders of Ivy Leagues members of Congress uh protesters who take to the streets there are people all around us influencers online celebrities prominent personalities music star they're all all kinds of and z and to have taka to have the kavana that should be show that all these synonyms he should they're not synonyms all these descriptions Hashem should fulfill and it should be Mah and M it should be immediate a word that's repeated in this br more than any other immediately and without weight should fulfill our our Dream our hope our aspiration to eliminate all of our enemies and to bring the peace that claw Israel so desperately want and deserve
