In regards to the Torah's account of Moshe bringing forth water from the rock, why does it first say that 'water will come forth' but actually 'a lot of water' came forth? What is the unique attribute of food that has a spiritual aspect? What was the unique challenge that Moshe faced with the striking of the rock? Why did he feel it necessary to bring forth water from a different rock than the one commanded by Hashem? What is the idea behind the statement of our sages that 'all the rocks poured forth water' when Moshe struck this rock? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.

you're listening to the weekly partial
podcast with Ari Goldberg record with
Russians never-ending assistance in Roma
imma she's real 57 79 2019 this
week's partial hustlers is partial
suckas I like to read to you from the
Marissa Adam first from sucking the
verses speak about the sin of my shrub a
know of Moses and Aaron which caused not
to be able to enter into the Land of
Israel he did not they were not McCallum
Shimon to the extent that they could
have been and should have been here's
what it says it's a few verses in
chapter 19 sorry chapter 20 verses 7
through 12 13 let's see right there I
show Michelle a more Hashem spoke to
Moses and said Coty's a matzah take your
staff oculus a dava I run a few a'right
the Jewish people had come to Moshe was
the end of the 40 years they said that
they're very thirsty there's no water to
drink Miriam had just passed away the
air the well which was in her merit had
had gone there very thirsty so Hashem
told him take your staff gather the
congregation together a table around
Akiko you and are on your brother
lobotomy La Silla you will speak to the
rock lain am vanoss on name of you will
speak to the rock doesn't say to hit the
rock and said to speak the rock in front
of their eyes and it will give its
waters it tasted I'm I'm and I sell you
shall take out from from their water
from the stone which Jesus ate of SB
Ihram and she'll give to drink to the
ADA to the congregation and to their
cattle now I want to point out something
I'm actually before we get to my
driggity so I want to show you thought I
heard yesterday for my cousin you know
save gold wag and he read the front of
my Chicago mr. Hawkins is an amazing
thing points out if we look over here it
says that the rock is going to get its
water we'll see and the continuation is
gonna say it's gonna it's gonna actually
give a lot of water here it doesn't say
a lot of water and also here it says
aside of that as it be iran the
congregation will be given
to drink and to their cattle there's a
vs in the middle which implies that
there was they were on different levels
ss tough L we find in cos L the word s
means secondary okay so let's see
because in the ham shift it turns out
not that way oh you got Kamisha it's a
matter man finish em II took the staff
as he was commanded cashier TiVo by
acute awareness a call Alpena has Sola
motion Aaron gathered the entire
congregation to the stone family i'm
shim eun-ha my room i mean i still has
their night seal ahem I mean you said to
them here Oh rubella is can I take out
water from this rock my Ramesh's the
other day my office has said over my
tail Pam oh him he raised his hands and
he hit the rock twice I see my Marah
beam it says a lot of water came out
with h2 either avi Iran it doesn't
separate them with the word at the S it
says that the congregation and their
cattle drank ok so they're on the same
level and the message of Kozma says
before we get to the Madera so dementia
Hoffman says an amazing thing that
originally the water was not supposed to
be a lot of what it didn't need to be a
lot of water because as we find anything
spiritual whether it's the carbon owes
the sacrifices when they were eaten
whether it was the Mun or whether it was
left him upon him anything that has a
spiritual quality to it it was a
physical thing but I had spiritual
qualities to it you didn't need a lot of
it all you need to eat was a little bit
and that was enough to make a person
feel full and had a spiritual capacity
to make a person feel full despite the
fact that it was only a small amount
originally they were supposed to be
given that water to drink and a small
amount of water would have been enough
but in the end they needed a lot of
water because because of the change in
the way that things were done we'll see
what the problem was with a change no in
Jogja Sodom but but there was a mistake
that was made that cause a negative
spiritual effect on the Jewish people
such that instead of them having a sense
of satisfaction from the water even a
small amount of water
they also had to have they had to have a
lot in order to feel full to benefit
from it originally they're supposed to
be on different level from the animals
because animals no matter even if it
because they're completely physical
they're motion so you can't give them
something spiritual and they enjoy a
little bit that's just how it works so
they would have been on a different
level in the Jewish people but in the
end because of this severa so they lost
that level now the alternative arc has a
whole interesting shot again one more
thought I'm sorry before we get there
and that is that we see that when it
comes to spiritual things the ideal the
ideal is a person has a Munna be taught
him so there's a concept which we've
spoken about in the in a be talking
podcast that when it comes to I'm gonna
be talk on a person is happy with what
he has a sub our Russian says the HD Rav
I have a lot because he needs a lot in
order to be happy Jockamo Venus is
actually call I have everything because
even though he does have a lot he
doesn't need a lot to be happy because
he always feels like he has everything
that he needs so it's a it's a deeper
level another thought that I had also
again I'm sorry before we get to Maria's
Adam another thought that I had on a
personal a personal thought that
inspired me is that sometimes it feels
like with our partner saw with our
livelihood that we need to hit I need to
hit the rock we need to like do whatever
we have to do whatever we can and we
feel like our fearless may not be
answered unless we do a lot of effort a
lot of PR a lot of crowdfunding but
there are other times when we experience
that's that's the Bayaka so so and he
hits the rock and that's not the ideal
situation a shaman wants us to be able
to just ask and quiet voice and to be
able to receive without the demand it's
a higher level it's a deeper level and
it's possible every one of us has that
inside of us the possibility to attain
that as we get to higher levels would be
toughen we can reach such a thing okay
now let's get into magic I saw them
partially minimum with Titus is an
amazing thing he says that a whole
partial entire which is our partial well
I made that's I can't sir column Leah's
classified I take a person says the
other on a verdict needs to be strong
in his mind the kinda miss Akamai she
released some cash - to keep the
commandment without trying to make any
kind of calculations it's easy to say
wow I can't do this Mitzvah right now or
I need to do it not in the ideal way
there's all kinds of excuses that come
up in the normal stream of life
don't do that says the altar the option
shanira Molloy Beruna Hawking even it
seems very clear very strong ain't I
didn't I 70 a column insufficient person
should not bend even a drop from the
command of a Shem now her Shaina met -
mmm let's see hmm afresh unless it's
exactly not unless it needs to be
exactly what a sham commanded whatever
he says explicitly without your night to
visit me there for MS don't turn away
from the truth
come along I'll let ya Libya - you're
buying a claw claw person has a
calculation not to do exactly what it
says no terror not to do exactly what
it's a shams will the result will be
negative - how the little kid does but
there's a light touch the flag Amory you
will not help at all
what'swhat's the parsha it's our partial
Y and Leia mountain be like tshane ela
ain't even a thrill Shem says motion
aren't since you did not sanctify my
name you didn't do things properly
okay lots of years have callers lrr is
the Shonan something I'm therefore
motion Aaron were told that they would
not bring the Jewish people to the Land
of Israel
I hate some memory vote he pushes to
Avatara
the sin of memory is very difficult to
understand wear rubber boots out there
but first we show himself since the
alternate verdict
there were many opinions that were
stated about this only my first by my
rock cause of young I'm a to be lucky
shiny there's something that they were
missing in there
Kirishima and the sanctification of
god's name in there a moon and their
faith re-kick receive allah might bits
admob be kiddush Hashem what is it that
caused a lack of lack of sanctification
Russians name who each layers between
LUN mmm it's a lack of complete faith in
Hashem we don't have you talkin on
chemin we don't have faith in Hashem we
don't believe in a sham it's a hellish M
it causes an non-sag sanctification of
God's name
Mitchell are bizarre elements in my
favor yeah bezees a faint heart to
understand where was the sin with
initial each name is a monocot so Sean
where was it that he didn't show proper
faith my ish lava Markakis Acela what's
the problem yet the stone I wish with
helium Ellis aloneness and mine we found
has I'll say at the beginning he spoke
to the stone but it didn't give water
right away
youkai sight and then you hit it in kala
a dick dick in my ass on coca why I
shouldn't get so upset why I shouldn't
so get gotten so nitty-gritty with him
like I say eventually I'd see my and he
needed to hit it because didn't the
water didn't come out so what's the idea
rush of customer first machines couple
of have on him amazing thing the before
Shem say the commentaries say that the
rock was switched village even also
should see varsham the reason that the
rock didn't bring forth water was
because he wasn't talking to the right
Rock looking learn us and my malady were
ill Avadh that's why I didn't give
that's why I wanted income out of it
when he spoke and I'm a speaker that
doesn't explain it enough champagne my
last an opportunist couple have one what
should he have done
I'm the meaning is morality mushroom
informant sharaba
but the idea is explained according to
that which it says in the mesh
ke ke liye kuch Merkel dementia Sela
she's already loved a favela locker
she was specifically told him to to
speak to a particular rock and not a
different Rock
yeah dokey Taha'a Connie some enough
lace rocky Luca description mine we know
that the purpose of every single NACE of
every miracle is to sanctify God's name
mine akira-kun oh yeah she will leave on
bilasa cultivate spark in order that
everybody recognize shams great power
and his great abilities logic across
that president call - no massive that
God is intimately the van in hashim's
divine providence is involved in every
single person's life in every single
situation of law human more Shamim even
for a Jews walking in the wilderness
there's no life there visible measures
ravishes Felice really more the idea my
Shack like a sellout
whom evacuate even a Miami zone they
said hey he knows the rock he knows this
the rules of the rocks so he could take
out water from any rock and so I might
show me but Suffolk so one she had a
problem here was his problem okay did
you shoulda said why you have to take it
out of that rock Ketchum could do
anything take it out of this rock or
maybe they were saying why does Moshe
make a nice specifically with that rock
why can't motion make a nice with a
different Rock it's only that rock that
has the power right they would say they
would there was something missing the
cloudy straw was saying something that
would take away from the from the
miracle and he was somebody I mean be
Suffolk so now Moshe had the following
doubt in shame and I'm about to derail
Malcolm if he listens to them and speaks
to a different Rock so then he won't
listen to the words of a shame I kind of
shine that's the measure she says so
look this is what happened named Sasha
collimation Bailey bum Vuitton a same
Suffolk awesome of Okinawa the Jewish
people put Moshe in a tailspin they sent
him into a very difficult situation in
Lhasa Ski de ville de la silla eclair if
you would listen to them and say look
don't get a miracle from a different
rock as well officially if the washer
muchacha Lam
they shouldn't think that a sham can't
do it from the other rocks that's a
solution if they think that that's true
when polka show them you know
conditioner mine and when we get rid of
their suspicions so then it will be
kiddush Hashem sanctification or shams
name or the Davila sila she feel a sham
the other option was speak to the rock -
I'm specified key - Lola Vidal TV I'm
welcome in order not to nullify the
command of a Shem shades musical a
shammy Amash a year and EBA if film
comes out it will be whatever it is a
listen to what a sham says to do via
docking Gama can't even show me a key
desertion Billy Dero in the customs
nickel if you would have known something
you would have realized that there's
nothing to even talk about what's that
that the dietitian Reba emotionally
that's like ionic FS
maken-ki manageable miss Cabo called
there's many other member alya like him
who cares what people think you got to
do what a sham says that in itself is a
killer sham oh it's a safe code doesn't
come a movie now must wash em who cares
if they have every single human being
who ever lived is opposite you and
you're you're saying I got to do a sham
school and they're all saying no don't
do it as well who cares what they say
that's like that in itself is a
conditional shell I do at a sham says no
matter what even if everyone is against
me but he was afraid says the altar Oh
should've ran normally she fasted
peneleus Khayyam kiddush Hashem he was
afraid that day there would not be the
proper sanctification regime's name
relates to the perk of earnest a
Macomber who and shams shams intense
would not come what a sham walk with the
with speaking to the rock hashem wanted
that they should all see that just like
a rock does Hashem his will or doesn't
speak it doesn't have a mind of its own
right so to a person should do it should
do whatever a sham says doesn't you know
rock doesn't have the ability even a
normal situation to pour forth water
yeah okay cold come on Sasha my clothes
become an instant okay my records once a
bridge from Ivica Lara's like we said
the purpose of a miracle and that people
know about ash I'm sure some should
become famous in the world so to speak
the mu and mu cos mi sistema people will
just say that it was natural motion
knows about the water rock
officially there clay Casella and
khinkali kirshen instead of a thousand
the whole miracle would be nothing okay
no yeah I me the cycle is I think dr.
sham so he was stuck how do I make the
kiddush Hashem to be great a machinist
asked me be more if I change the shams
if I do a little bit differently the one
of sham said so I'm walking with search
sha for the moment it's what you gotta
do sometimes you gotta do what the
situation calls for a little bit of
veering away so you can get back on to
the path we cubed every I'm welcome
it's me most or maybe I should be doing
exactly - I'm said with simplicity
excuse me basics PR Suffolk so what did
he do
name of arbitrage is I'll show him D
Brucella on her Rashi explains that he
spoke to a different Rock YK area be
tighter here kiddush Hashem Yadav came
in our Alice a big circle Israel he
decided that it would be a bigger
concession ultimately to synchronize
shams name and show everybody Shimon are
my rim Yuri bellies you think that I
should then it's just there's only a rot
one water rock any rockin can pour forth
water
surely I'm showing here Oh piss compare
the title of they shouldn't have any
question no no possible thought could
enter their minds are there's a a queue
cool uncle Avada everyone would see
there's nothing miss havisham kind yeah
ahem in slum this they can also be
taught muscle is a shame at Darwin a
sham and insert Aparna so here's this
what I said before just like a rock that
doesn't speak and doesn't hear and
doesn't require livelihood coma coma
crime the abortion welcome nevertheless
fulfills the word word of Hashem meaning
the rock has nothing to gain by
listening to God so to speak Colorado we
have met listen to God because we
everything we get is from him our life
is from him we need food we need to live
walkabout in semi-live carbecue Ibrahim
welcome he chose to do that which looked
like to him would be a greater kiddush
Hashem then when a shaman commanded him
okay
shame yes the commotion was over if he
would have done with apes that what he
was commanded you sure Hashanah it would
still be left with doubts you know a
flush angle means that there's no
greater solution than that ok managed
even me tequila a la silla
I mustn't mine that's why I originally
spoke to that rock and it didn't give
forth water you mister Lila Cilla's it
Seymour welcome because it wasn't the
correct Rock le claire has monitory need
so Michael Nagila at Smith the radical a
sham Moshe Bader was on a very exalted
level he didn't have any kind of bias
he just wanted to do he felt that it was
the right thing to do in other places we
find that motion Rubino
made a decision to do something on his
own for instance you through the he
threw down the Lucas three under the
tablets he broke them why an ashram says
in the end of the tyre Shekhar she
Martha Raye it was the right thing that
he done that he had done
right but here I made a mistake so he
was tried to run away from clash I'm
gonna hug like kiddush Hashem hugger
like a Satsuma Shalaby does he come I'm
I share something so he struck it
because it didn't work when he spoke to
it he struck it twice until the water
came out now what's the problem then if
he was doing the right thing why was he
punished so he says an amazing thing
this is an amazing thing there's a
message that says that when motion
remains struck that rock in the end not
only did the rocks
not only did that rock I'm sorry pour
forth water but in fact all of the rocks
in the entire world at the same moment
poured forth water to show that everyone
should know that this miracle was
occurring throughout the entire world
very interesting it's very similar to
what we see in regards to the the when
there was a yumps of excuse me on a Shem
split the water so all the waters in the
world split so everyone should know that
this was possible is something that was
going on it was like better than social
media
everybody knew at the same time the
waters were splitting all the waters in
the world split everybody knew at the
same time the rocks the rocks were
pouring forth water that being the case
is the altar of navarre 'dick that being
the case an amazing thing if he would
have struck the correct rock if he would
have struck the correct rock I'm sorry
if he wouldn't have struck if you want
to spoke into the correct rock instead
of worrying that perhaps people will
think that Shem can't bring out water
from any rock only this is the special
water rock if he wouldn't have made such
abundance if you won't that mean any
calculations and he would have just done
exactly the Shem had said the rock would
have poured forth water and all the
other rocks would have done the same and
there would've been no question in the
minds of the Jewish people that Hashem
can do anything and that was from a
shaman it wasn't just a water rock okay
that was the mistake of mushroomy no
Welsh Rubino
should have done exactly simply what
Shem said
okay and it would have been a greater
Kadisha sham because everyone would see
you listen to a sham you listen to
what's right you do what's right simply
without asking questions it doesn't mean
it doesn't mean we can't ask questions
and try to understand things to the best
of our ability but the questions are not
there for us to understand but not to
question as far as what we're supposed
to do we are supposed to follow the tyro
we do what the Tyrus says whether we
understand it or not that's why we have
who Kim never spoke to me of laws that
we could understand we've lost we can't
really all of them are hukum possession
are a cost of B Takahashi Macaulay Becca
Valbuena Scottish shine says the alter
and finishing off this idea that this is
what I means the verse when it says
trust and I shine with all of your heart
don't rely on your intellect and elect
us is me varsham I feel the coldest air
don't move from the word Hashem even a
hair's breath Gemara Seamus she a CO
della Palma lucrative person needs to do
things you person wants to get to a high
level and spirituality person needs to
do the action as best as you can sort of
wash em it needs to have - faith in
Hashem common woman sister charm like I
said it's in mr. shermin chapter 20
should start house on Ashley should've
over there come with us and it could SMS
you know my celibacy beetle Hashem
there's these three things and a service
of God one is the point of truth second
is looking into his action understanding
what he needs to do and the last is
trusting in Hashem I'm doing what he
says there may be times where think it
seems like I got to do something other
than what he says but no I do what he
says and I trust that it's going to be
it's gonna come out good I like Daisy
Bovada yet slayeth person will certainly
succeed in this way can watch tomorrow
because of lagina attire the hakama
Tommy Shan will not prevent good from
somebody who goes perfectly in the ways
of a Shem meaning a person goes simply
it means that we need to do what it says
we need to do what the tyre says because
that's what it says because we know that
this is the will of Hashem will of God
that was given to Moshe obey no 3,300
years ago on Mount Sinai we were all
there our souls were all there so we do
what it says simply we don't make such
abundance we don't we
do it it says you don't say well the
times are different we don't none of
that right fine understand it I
understand it but the tire what the
Terry says is what we do as I make sure
I bend that was the mistake the motion
motion made when a person lives in a
state of Tammy Moose has come back to
with the mush Akama said when a person
lives in a state of Tammy massive of
simplicity going with a showman
simplicity so such a person it doesn't
need a lot it doesn't need a lot of
water small amount the water is gonna be
enough
a person who has true beat often do you
not they don't need a lot of money they
need exactly what they need they need
exactly what their need that's that's
the person who goes with simplicity they
get you get what you would you give so
to speak I shouldn't still call ya des
me nothing like that my drinking some
quotes shemin's our shadow right if we
raise our hands so then we see the
shadow moves as well the way that we
interact with a collage mark was how he
interacts with us if we act it's mimos
with simplicity with wholeness with with
faith he's gonna provide for us let's
say sham provides for us and if we think
that we have to do things in a smart way
to calm a you know a calculated way
differently then ashram says perhaps
so now sham says you wanna do it your
way have it your way
when the results are different the
results are like we said that there's no
real difference between the people and
the animals there both have to have a
lot in order to feel satisfied whereas
if a person goes with simplicity there's
so they certainly finally don't need a
lot to feel satisfied they're happy with
what they have and they might have a lot
or they might have a little but either
way they feel satisfied easy well sheer
who is rich that's a math Patel Co
someone who was happy with what he has I
want to bless you and ask you to bless
him me I should help us to incorporate
this idea into our lives to recognize
the importance of going simply with an
emotion should help us to be able to do
that should help us to be have true
simple betoken faith in him that he'll
provide us with all of our knees and
Shem should
