second par destruction of the world how
do you teach destruction of the world in
a nice way oh yeah they were really nice
people they didn't mean to sin so Hashem
killed all of them that is turning hasem
into a monster no what we say
in implying that hm's intention in
giving the tah is that it should be
pregated among others with sweetness and
kindness uh and to be into bring them
close to Hashem how do you reconcile
with this your more aggressive approach
which is very very recent in kazal an
Outlook we have never seen it to our
world well uh I'm sorry to tell you uh
that uh you're not familiar with
David nor are you familiar with kazal
nor are you familiar with the Torah if
you're saying such a thing why and we'll
finish this off with this
question as far
as it means that you're going to help
people as a result of teaching the Torah
in a way that is going to be soothing
full of Truth full of uh uh intention
for the benefit of others uh you know
not uh pacifying people not a uh you
know not trying to get something out of
people but rather for the sake of
helping other people and and every
person needs to be taught in a certain
way sometimes there's a person that
needs to be taught in a uh way where
you're trying to inspire him to do
things by giving them stories of
inspiration sometimes you have to
inspire him by uh giving him hope
sometimes you have to inspire him by
giving him fear sometimes you have to
inspire him by giving him love different
inspiration at different time
that's what meaning that you're always
going to have the primary intention of
helping people be inspired now as far as
uh saying that you only can inspire
people by saying uh that they're all
good and they're all righteous and
they're all uh wonderful no matter what
they do this is not the way of Tor this
is not the way of this is not the way of
kazal and anyone that says so is simply
clueless would all do respect to you
that you are unfortunately been mist
teing or mistaught uh but I can prove it
to you number one when you first start
learning what's the
first tells us that got everything you
could possibly imagine but he still
sinned and he got punished he got
punished he got kicked out of the uh of
the Gan Eden right and at uh uh at that
time that he got kicked out of
ganeden says I'm going to keep him out
of ganed how I'm going to keep him out
of geden I'm going to put the the
cherubs at the geden but yet these same
cherubs we learn about in this week's
Paras so we learn about the cherubs in
the Book of Genesis chapter 1 verse 24
that they are destructive Angels if or
anybody comes close to ganeden they'll
be killed right away but we also learn
about the cherubs in this week's Paras
where there's these beautiful baby
looking things that are angels that are
able to move that look at is once a year
when they open the of
the all of looks at it if the angels of
the Kim are looking at them that's
favorable if they're looking away it's
unfavorable in so many words the same
cherubs are cute little babies but are
indication of where we stand we also
said that destructive Angels why because
this and this is needed that's why the
second Paras after we go into this whole
thing of first Paras second parasha
destruction of the world how do you
teach destruction of the world in a nice
way oh yeah they were really nice people
didn't mean to sin so Hashem killed all
of them that is turning AEM into a
monster no what we say in the there were
there
wasas there wereas not just like the
nation the people ofas today butas and
those times people that were stealing
people that committing
homosexuality people that were
committing all types of morality that's
why destroyed them fast forward Sodom
and gomorah time of abah ainu what were
they Sodom and Gomorrah destroyed what
do you teach them no solom and gamorra
you know they didn't mean to they they
they meant well Hashem loves them no he
hated them that's why he destroyed them
fast forward Egypt Egypt killed us every
single day 150 babies in the morning 150
babies at night when hasem loved them no
he hated them that's why he destroyed
them all of the wicked people from the
time of Noah reincarnated into salom
reincarnated into into Egypt Hashem
hated all of them and in fact he also
punished all of the Jews that didn't
want to accept the tah and he killed
over 80% of the Jews in Egypt they never
made it to Mount sa so what you talk oh
no they didn't mean to hem loves
everybody no he punished them by killing
them because they didn't want to accept
the Torah so what we see here is that
Hashem is constantly killing who he
calls his enemies which includes Jew we
also hear in the Tora that hasm says in
this week's a Jew that violates Shabbat
gets death penalty so what are you going
to say oh you know if you drive on
Shabbat hm loves you anyway it's okay no
he doesn't he said he'll kill you yeah
but he didn't really mean it oh so hasm
is a liar no he said it he's going to do
it same thing if you look
at where gives us a series of four dozen
curses that happen to people that go
against the Torah four dozen curses and
if that's not enough you go
to where you have eight dozen curses
eight dozen curses almost a 100 curses
for people that do not observe Shabbat
people that waste seed people that you
know go against God in they don't follow
Tor what lie he changed the Torah he he
meant it over there but he didn't mean
over here no Hashem wants you to know
there's reward and punishment that's why
if you look at the
r number three R you know
Ram you know more than the rambam your
Rabbi know more than rambam no okay I
don't know more than the rambam either
ramb knows more than all of us right so
let's see what the does the rambam say
it's Mitzvah number three
is to love hem Mah number three is to
love hem now you would think oh to love
hem don't that's proven my point no no
no no Noah number three is to love hem
that means
removing removing our own
desires reflect on ourselves to do chuva
so how does this teach fear doesn't
teach fear you go to Mah number four for
that number four
says
fourth Commandment fourth
ra the fourth positive commandment is
that which he has commanded us to
believe in a inspiring nature of the
exalted one and to fear Him this
includes
not to be like the Heretics who do as
they wish without regards for the
consequences of their actions but rather
to fear to bless one's punishment at any
moment this is what the exalted God said
in the Torah fear the lord your God this
is in verse uh Deuteronomy chapter 6:13
easy to remember is 6113 and therefore
conclusion is fearing hasem is a
positive commandment in so many words
the rambam is explaining why fearing
hasem is a commandment and not just a
suggestion or as a something that uh you
can choose to do or not to do in so many
words the rambam is given the details of
why every one of the mitv is what it is
point being is that there is multiple in
the
T that are to fear Hashem and not just
fear is all but fear punishment
fear that's what
the in
his and many of that followed taught
that
fearing is not just fearing his a in his
majesty but to actually fear geham to
actually fear punishment now if a person
looks at the five books of Moses they'll
quickly see that this is clear as AEM
shows punishment in every
single he talks about punishment so if
he didn't want you to be afraid of him
why is he mentioning punishment that's
why M when is was afraid to continue
hearing God's voice M tells
isem is scaring you so you don't
sin meaning hasem is intentionally
scaring you so you don't
sin says why is there thunder why did a
create
Thunder to create lightning you could
rationalize in a million ways but create
Thunder just makes a bunch of noise why
create
Thunder says created
thunder in order to straighten out our
hearts meaning in order to scare us and
realize that we are under the control of
God and if we continue going against God
he'll punish us
furthermore if you say that the tah says
that no punishment or it should be only
lovey doy you have to wipe out every in
the T now if you say
that
also and only everybody's righteous then
explain to me the that every Jew reads
not only every day but specifically
every
Wednesday where the
starts what
is
God is the god of Vengeance the god of
Vengeance has
arrived this T that David wrote talks
about the wrath of God and the
punishment that he gives the
wicked so you have said
against the
sages
Shabbat page 54 55 56 talk about the
different horrendous punishments that
Jews get for not rebuking the public for
not
rebuking their fellow Jews to the extent
that they say that the reason why
destroyed the bet mikdash is because the
Jews were not
rebuking page 12 says the Jeremiah the
prophet asked theh not to destroy the
bet mikdash a that spoke to Jeremiah
because he was a prophet says to him if
you could go and find me one synagogue
one synagogue where the rabbi is
speaking and rebuking his people I won't
I won't destroy the BET mikdash Jeremiah
went from K to K from place to place to
find at least one Rabbi that's rebuking
the people he couldn't find one and he
cried to said I can't find one hasem
says then the decree is final I'm
destroying the bet mikdash
and then Jeremiah cried inph that he
wrote and we say this in our prayers on
Mondays and
Thursdays there's no more men of Faith
what's it's not people that don't have
that's going to help them no people that
have faith in in his and his that are
going to stand up for it and teach
people the
truth so you spoke and said don't teach
it now you're going to say
oh loved
everybody says in the name
of shalom
shalom he loves peace he chases
peace and he brings people to the Tor
what does it mean brings people to the T
he loves peace he chases peace but he
brings people up to the Torah he doesn't
bring the Torah down to them to say that
you're not allowed to teach people about
reward and punishment is in essence
speaking
against wanted to continue living says
no I have to take
your talks about it and
also talks about the dialogue between
and where mosu has perfected his body to
the extent that it was in the same level
as
says had to convince to leave this
world convince him like a husband
convince a wife a wife convince a
husband but after he convinced him he
took
his
says
cried cried and he says who going to
rebuke my people like mosu who's going
to yell at my people and tell him to do
CH who
who's going to do it Z brings
Yeshua
Yeshua yelled
at why are you going against
hem scared them said you're going to go
to
G came to was a prophet
after yes why you scar my
people Yeshua says to hem you know I
didn't scare them for the sake of my
honor or the honor of my father I scare
them for your honor so they don't go
against the
Tor
says kiss the hands of
yes thank you for scaring my people
because your intention was to help them
do CH thank
you so now you have Abu
says people used to come to everybody
knows AB had openings Four Corners
guests you want to convince them to
abandon idolatry give food that's what
everybody knows what everybody doesn't
know Z
says convince him to do
ch
how what do you tell them hasm is going
to give you reward he likes you he'll
give you money no AB will teach them
about Gom if you continue with idol
worship you'll be in this chamber if you
continue with the prostitute you'll be
in that chamber if you continue doing
this you'll be in that chamber you would
tell them the details of G
Abu made millions of people do by
teaching left Egypt between leaving
Egypt getting to Mount Si 50 days what
do you do 50 days Z says taught T what T
did he teach them didn't get T yet
taught them
about told them you continue
sinning will put you in different
chambers
and last peric believe it's page 154
B says person that goes against theh can
learn from DAV why DAV said in the book
of that if certain people go against
theem they go to kafak what's kafak
that's when somebody's so bad they don't
even have the Merit to go to G they go
to kaf for extra sentence over there the
says could be a thousand years could be
a million years
what's says it's when there's angels of
Destruction fling the from one of the
Earth to the other end of the
world and destroy it and beat it the
whole
timea saw one of these people one
time asked them what's happening to you
he told them what's happening to Hima
was able to help
that talks about how he spoke to people
that are in
kafak and they told them what's
happening to them while they're speaking
to him how they're being literally
destroyed in ways that are beyond your
comprehension
was wasu a liar a liar Z is a liar is a
liar is a
liar is a liar everybody is a liar
except
you everybody is a liar except your the
that told you there's no fear fear is a
commandment from the
tor
commandment from if you don't
fear you're going to sin you're going to
go
against what's fear against fear of
punishment fear of punishment what's
fear of punishment punishment that
you're going to go to G punishment you
go to kaf punishment you get sick and
die punishment that's much further than
you can possibly comprehend punishment
that makes the Holocaust look like
[Music]
kindergarten
[Music]
to teach people about punishment is
absolutely
necessary so to
say where you can't teach people about
punishment and you love everybody that's
not not from and not from anybody in
Judaism not from anybody in Judaism as
far as kazal kazal has extensive
sections of the to discuss different
types of
punishment has details of punishment of
death penalties which one there's a
debate between the which death penalty
is the worst one do you know
that argues against R which death
penalty is the worst one which one Hurts
the
Most there's no respectfully disagree
there's no disagree you're wrong your
Rabbi is wrong you're
clueless our is real doesn't change is
no here you look at that's what they say
this entire
section talks about which punishment is
worse which one hurts
more Mak you know what makot is makot is
whipping why for
sins their entire sections of the Torah
that talk about punishment why because
punishment is necessary in order for God
to be good and just and that's why the
ranad in in
sh says in section seven anyone that
says that sentence of punishment is
limited to 12
months is a rash because they have
turned God into an evil God that
punishes everyone the same no such
thing talks about different sentences of
reincarnations all of them are different
forms of
punishment all of them are different
forms of
punishment first peric
says when he would
teach he would teach them about
punishment he would teach them about
reward and Punishment
everybody would come they would do chv
but then there was not enough room so
you got a bigger space was not enough
room got a different space not enough
room they had to give him a section
outside of the BET
mikdash outside why there's not enough
space so many tens of thousands of
people showed up to what to hear about
Gom to hear about
punishment what do you
think came and told him Hashem loves you
no matter what lovei hasm needs you
no
is and that's why every infant that
starts to learn T every child starts to
learn T every adult that starts to learn
T learns about reward and Punishment
right off the bat how sined he got
punished kind sinned he got
punished the the generation of Noah sin
they got
punished not to
say oh but maybe you can say punishment
but not the way you say it Rabbi not the
way that I say it do you know any of the
strong speakers of the people that
changed am is throughout the
generations go look who are the ones
that build
communities like again
like
shom Shalom
like
shalom
shalom elar sh
Shalom
great spoke in such a voice at times
make me look like a little
puppy why because when you
care you express that you care you care
by
yourself so you are not going to do what
I
do how do I know you care about yourself
because all you care about is to express
the opinion that's wrong in order
to bring a point out that you think is
correct now if you were to measure what
you do versus what I do for
is you you would not make such a
comment
why because what you do is you take care
of yourself perhaps you donate to one or
two people and that's
it I donate my whole
life I don't need to know what you do
but I can assure you that you and your
Rabbi would not survive one day in my
life why because I donate my whole life
to CL is
my whole
life and it's not a matter of arrogance
it's not a matter of I'm better than you
it's a matter of what do the receipts
say who's doing
what I really like the way that he
presented things and he was very uh very
honest and and uh also had like a
personal uh I would say personal
relationship with him because when I
have questions anything that was uh you
know bothering me he would answer me and
he would be there for me and you know
before he get married the always comes
in and I was going through a very uh
difficult time and at 3:00 a.m. he
answered the phone and he went through
an hour from 3: to 4:00 a.m. no one
knows about this very few people know
actually about this and uh for an hour
he was telling me you know to get
married and I'm going to be successful
I'm going be happy as long as I have the
right uh as long as I have the right
intention you know sh
so I I had needed guidance after maybe a
few months of watching r ruven i I
started asking questions about Shabbat
and stuff like that how to keep it and
this and that he says are I say says go
and buy y the Shabbat Edition I went and
bought it maybe like a week week later
he textt RAB textt me and he says do you
want a to help you do you want to help
you so you can go over so you can you
know properly go over someone who guide
you and he got me in touch with someone
amazing amazing person amazing every
once a week every week literally I would
study I would study like yourself before
I would talk to him I would go over it
uh I would like read it and then I would
jot down note and then once a week I
would go over it with the and I was
doing this for maybe a year year and a
half with him and it was amazing and
this just goes to show you that like
Ruben really really wants to help people
and he's not like the typical Rabbi
where wants to he he generally wants to
make people better better human being
better people as a person that's why I
love his M lectures it it really there
there's tons of lectures on YouTube
where you can go find any topic you want
but there's not so many so many rabbis
that actually teach people to be better
people at least I'm sure for for you
know thousands of people the you know
what he did for me you know at 3:00 a.m.
I don't know anyone who would just waste
you know with their time with a 21 Oney
old and you know speak with me and and
really take the time to listen you know
we finished at like 4:00 a.m. and you
know was there along the way and it's uh
this was you know tremendous Act of you
know and and you know especially that
you know it's like lishma you know
sometimes you know someone gives you a
lot of money Sometimes some someone does
good things to you so you feel like you
have a certain uh uh you owe him
something you have uh you you have a
certain de of gratitude towards him but
you know when you see that there's
nothing you know it's just pure and this
is the uh then this is really beautiful
and this is how it's uh it's supposed to
be when you wake up in the morning what
do you do you go take care of yourself
when you go to sleep what do you think
about you think about yourself when you
live during the day what do you do you
think about
yourself all of the things that you do
is for
you am I making money out of this
lecture no am I making money out of any
of this
no so to go and tell me how to
help at the very least since you're not
willing to sacrifice what I sacrifice
you have to show me your receipts what
are your results how many people have
you
changed this week this month this
lifetime to go and abandon their Wicked
Ways
and come back to
hem to stop going against hem how many
people do you help
one two
five once we spoke to a rabbi in
Canada about five you say five you
helped what you do in a
lifetime I've done in a day
and yes it is a
competition why because you say your way
is better if your way is better go do it
why you wasting your time talking to me
why you wasting time talking to me go
help stop talking to me go help right
now you have thousands of people
watching my shoe online and every single
one of them is making a comment of how
this shoe is affecting their
life people
have transformed their life some have
even changed their religion in order to
come back to as a result of the that
they
watch so if you're going to say that
there's a better way show me someone
that has better results than
me show me one you show me
one if it fits I'll publicize
him if it fits for me to do it I'll do
it myself
but I can assure you I follow in the
footsteps of my R who follows in the
footsteps of his rabim who following the
footsteps of all of the great sages
throughout all of history
andu this is how the M
spoke this is how the greatest speakers
of am Isel
spoke go read some of the books of the
Mida not just what he wrote but books
that were written about him and how he
spoke go read about shom not just about
what he wrote but how people spoke about
him and how he lived his life go read
about go read about all of these great
sages what Worth to kill a Jew or to
drive Shabbat what worth you
think no to drive Shabbat is worse I am
Rabbi I'll prove to
you
hello who knows we have Ten Commandments
you know we have Ten Commandments Ten
Commandments What the six commandment
six one what the sixth
one don't kill don't kill what the
fourth one fourth not six don't drive
Shabbat by God there is no difference
honey a Nazi slaughter a Jew or drive
Shabbat the same thing Commandments
don't fool yourself how they spoke to am
is go read about
mosenu find me
one find me one great sadik that
actually
changed the messes by speaking like the
people that you think are doing better
because we spoke to some of those people
that you think are doing better and when
they told me their
numbers my colleague who was friends
with them said how long are you doing
kiru
and the rabbi over there said he was
doing cure for 25 years he says how many
people have you helped do Chu in those
25 years he said
proudly 10 people maybe even
11 he said
Rabbi it's good 10 people have changed
their
life but if you look at the results
that this aggressive yon ruven is
doing following in the footsteps of the
greatest in history he gets more in a
week than you've done in 25
years
oh how can I help
now
soab if you want to criticize me
personally I'm too ugly I'm too fat I'm
too loud I'm too obnoxious I'm too this
I'm too that I kill us say what you want
but if you want to
criticize the
T the sages and say that they did
something that's the opposite of what
they actually did or that what they did
is wrong and no longer applicable to our
generation then I have to speak up why I
have to prove for the sake of the public
that what you're saying is wrong I don't
know who you are
or what you do and any any of the
results that you've gotten all I know is
few things that you wrote here some of
them that I read but I could tell you
that you have been misled misled about
how to help people change their life
misled about the sages misled about the
Torah misled of how to teach Torah
misled about how we teach and what the
results are if you want to see some of
the results you could either follow the
lectures you could watch the podcast of
people speaking for themselves you can
watch the letters and the comments that
I made you can see the results instead
of take my word for it but either way
before you speak in the name of DAV or
the sages or the Tor at the very least
do yourself the
service and learn it
first don't just assume
that is what the local Rabbi said in the
to make you feel good is is really the
because it's not there's a lot more to
the Torah than just teaching nice things
the tah is reward and Punishment it
can't just be reward it can't just be
punishment if you just reward your wife
eventually she'll leave you if you just
punish your wife eventually she'll leave
you how do you get it to stay reward and
Punishment same thing with your kids
same thing with yourself same thing with
employees it comes together
reward and punishment is
necessary now if a
person doesn't connect to me or the way
that I speak doesn't make much of a
difference to me I'm not looking for
fans or
likes but the moment that a person says
that what we're saying is
wrong that's a different story because
that has nothing to do with me has
nothing to do with me that's what the
have been teaching for Generations if
the said it
it is right not it must be right it is
right why cuz these and these are the
words of the Living
God so if you want to look at what the
have done and what have said I suggest
you educate yourself not from people
from
books go read the books
read
read aor
Miller read any of the great from any
part
of doesn't matter where saf asazi read
about the leaders read about how they
live their life and how they delivered
the
message surely everybody's righteous
everybody's good but as far as how they
delivered the message how do they get
people to change how they get people
inspired and you'll see that in fact the
message is exactly the same as what
we're doing here no different in fact if
I was really being honest with you I
have to pick it up a notch and be even
more than what I'm doing
now
so you'll see this by seeing the
lectures you'll see this by reading the
books and you'll see exactly because
those that spoke spoke like this those
that wrote wrote even more than
this
and we will continue to be able to
follow in their footsteps thank you very
much for learning with me who bless each
and every single one of you including
the ones that want to disagree the whole
purpose of the answer was not to go
against any one particular person per se
but rather to defend the honor of the
Tor for what it is has nothing to do
with me like me or dislike me does not
make much of a difference the key is to
know what the Torah says and not
necessarily what your own ruven says
whether your own ruven lives or dies to
stays the
same the way T has been transmitted from
generation to
generation is exactly like we're doing
it somebody wants to do something else
by all means everybody has a right to do
something else different sh different
things whatever works for you as long as
it works but don't think for a moment
that your way is necessarily the way of
the Sages you have to look at what the
sages
did and you'll see the more you learn
about the sages the more you learn about
D the more you learn about the more you
learn about the greatest people that
ever
led the more you'll see
wow I
guess it wasn't so different than what
he's
saying
