Shalom and welcome back to our par.
We find the par and the Torah goes ahead
and defines the mishk. The Torah puts an
interesting term to it. It's not just a
mishk but it's a mishk
aishk which gives testimony says rashi
what testimony can a physical building
give
the building the building of the mishk
was a testimony to recognize that
forgave them for the terrible of the
after did not know whether they were
going to be worthy often
so to speak want to go ahead and dwell
amongst us Is possible to dwell amongst
the people who have created theel says
as a testimony
went ahead and placed his amongst us
and that itself is the greatest aid
that's the greatest testimony the
greatest proof that has gone ahead and
forgave us for the terrible of the
is another aspect of what it means. Not
just that it went ahead and gave us
testimony but it also allowed us to be
able to testify once again is bring
which says that you are called the of
the so to speak. Our job in this world
is to be aidim. is to be the ones that
are going ahead giving over the
testimony that we're able to recognize
and we believe in the and our job is to
go ahead and two that come into over
testimony by what they saw every's job
is to be the
to go ahead throughout the world in
beyond and to be able to spread
the
to be able to spread the reality
the we are the ones that are supposed to
give over the testimony of what we know
is true more than anybody else in the
world. Says
our job is to be made under
it seems that we went ahead and we went
off track. We're supposed to be the ones
that are testifying that created the
world is
and yet we created anel that says
we're dancing around anel and saying
this is this is how can it be? How can
we have both jobs? How come we who are
supposed to be the
yet we are the ones that went ahead and
did the
we don't think that we're capable of
being anymore after what we just did.
after we just went ahead and did the we
think that we lost our title. We lost
our job of and yes it's true that we can
go ahead and pick ourselves back up but
to be to testify
we think that we're no longer capable
and we don't have the ability
until showed them that the mess up that
you had that the you had that's not real
that's not the real you that the you did
wasn't
it was a mikra you got caught up in
something foolish the convinced you to
do something terrible to create ago You
got confused because Mosha you thought
is not coming back down at the time that
he told you that he's coming down but
it's only mikra it happened as a happen
stance it's not the real you it's not
and therefore the job that you have and
the role that has to be the of the is
not tainted a even a tiny drop because
our job is nevertheless to go to
continue being the of the to be able to
go ahead and continue recognize that's
our job to talk about
the fact
I we did we messed up says that was a
that was a mess up that wasn't the real
us that wasn't who we are and therefore
it doesn't go ahead and ruin us it
doesn't go ahead and ple our status from
being Adam anymore
it only happened
and therefore we are capable and we are
supposed to go ahead and be made about
as we did at the beginning nothing had
changed we messed up we had a terrible
we have to go and do chuva and obviously
goes up and gets. But don't ever think
that that took away from your essential
job of being of from being able to go
ahead and say to recognize that our job
is to continue being the continue being
the ones that are giving over the
testimony of the reality of the as the
brings down says
wasn't worthy of doing such a terrible.
The only reason why the allowed him to
do such a terrible a is only in order to
show
that the wanted that every single who
feels that his status is being an aid of
the his status is being a is no longer
there because of what he's done and even
if he hasn't done about any a that he's
done he feels I'm no longer capable of
saying
I'm no longer capable of testifying
about the
that he shouldn't go ahead and look at
himself as somebody who's fallen
already, somebody who's gone and
somebody who's too far gone to be able
to be the
he should know
that through a person can go ahead and
retain and be able to get back and
regain his original of being. And
therefore
was not just a testimony about the
building was a testimony but it was aka
it was a mishk that gave us back our
ability to testify after having fallen
to theel we're now once again regained
our ability to be a to recognize that
chuva allows us to get back to the place
that were before and even greater and
therefore we're capable of saying we
don't have to be ashamed of the mission
we don't have to be embarrassed of the
mission we don't have to feel like we're
somebody who's not going ahead and
living a truth we're living a life of
contradiction life of steerus we need to
recognize the averas that we do our
bikra they're not the real us and the
mitzvah that we do and the adasis that
we give and the testimony that we're
saying that is the reality of who we are
and therefore is going ahead
to teach to every single one of us that
when we mess up and we fool and we feel
like we're not capable anymore of having
be able to go ahead and have the amongst
us be able to be the says it's a mishk
says this is why you find that aim
brings down that the first thing a
person should do a matim is begin
building a why building the so obviously
the simple translation the simple
explanation is you want to go ahead and
be involved in a mitzvah right after you
come out of it but it says it's deeper
than that
you walk out of and you want to know am
I really worthy am I really worthy of
going out and have in my in my home am I
really capable of going ahead and being
an aid for the can I really get back to
the place that I was before can I really
go go ahead and re-enter back into the
first thing that you do
that we are worthy
that the should be on us and that we are
capable of being the
is what the says in such an important
lesson for every one of us to recognize
that no matter how big the is, it's
never as big as the and even
is capable of
and yes, you are worthy of being an aid
for the you are worthy of going ahead
and standing up tall and proud and
saying
regardless of what you may have done
five minutes ago or a year ago or five
years ago, you are capable of doing it.
You are worthy of doing it. And the
is the biggest the biggest proof that
we're capable of doing it. Hashem should
give us the ability to be ourselves to
recognize this reality of
to go ahead and to be able to proclaim
to the whole world especially with the
coming of
that all of the world to be able to
recognize what we've been testifying
about for thousands of years. Have a
great job.
