you're listening to the weekly partial podcast recorded with a gems never-ending assistance in rubbish emissions our l57 77 2017 this week's parsha is partial Savarin at the beginning of our partial Moshe Albania begins very long speech and he tells us some interesting things one of the first things that he says he says like this well Marlin Cambodia he lay more I said to you this is in chapter 1 verse 9 I said to you at that time locale of adidas ace has come I cannot carry you by myself which I may know is one person the Jewish people 600,000 people and motion says how can I either want to carry alone Hashem next verse are similar came here boys can in Cameroon confer fashion I'm annoyed Hashem your God has made you great has made you many and today you are like the stars of the heavens so numerous in number verse 11 but I shall declare was Satan yosef alaykum LF common Hashem the god of your father's should add upon you many times a thousand times the virus has come and you should bless you got sure develop him as he has indeed spoken to you but he said they caused elevated Caucasus Emirate m-michelle vinegar moisture bein goes on to describe the fact that because the Jews people are so many because there are so many Jewish people so he can't do it by himself and he therefore had to appoint on behalf of the Jewish people different judges at different levels different sized courts etc and those things that were too difficult eventually would be brought to him but he had to give out the power so to speak now in speaking about it's very interesting speaking about the greatness in number of the Jewish people who speaks of the blessing of a sham he speaks to the fact that Hashem promised to the forefathers there will be numerous they will be innumerable like the stars in the heavens and in the U at this point they are and let's talk about the blessing let's talk about the blessing the idea of blessing the idea of the fact that did you people are innumerable that counted like the Stars how do we get into blessings how do we receive those blessings how do we get to that point to that place where we indeed are worthy of those blessings so this is what the measure says this is in partial olive beginning of the of our partial beginning of the safer the farm Deuteronomy and it's in letter U and olives section 11 silly this double-rocker how share alike a from here boys come Shem your God has made you numerous session recursive is what the verse is a shop on this hall culture hall I will bow down to the sanctuary of holiness so what is the idea I'm going to be allowing the share of you students in reveal I said in the name of review bin zero comma raka Roka Avraham this is what God said to Abraham show y'all as one of your state ICS that he's going to redeem them with two letters one of the two letters with the name of a Shem which is a two letter name me nine shikaka how do we know this because the verses like this the garments are going to show you are going to be done on oinkie and also the nation that they will be in servitude to I shall judge them we're done which means the judge is two letters Dollard and moon which actually as the ACA points out if you look at the DAR 72 we refer to will soon see we'll talk about the 72 letter name of Hashem which is derived for three silk and three verses in the in the account of the Jewish people getting to jump stuff as they got to the sea of reeds behind them where's the Egyptians in front of them with the water so the verse speaks about the fact that there was a cloud addition placed between the Jewish people and the Egyptians and each of those three verses there has 72 letters and from the the three verses we derive the 72 there are 72 combinations of letters of three letters from each of these three verses which we won't get into in detail but in the middle in a fiftieth one the 50th combination of letters have the name which consists of letters Dollard and note that's what they say it brings down so I shall refer to the fact that it's going to be done he's going to judge the Egyptians he's going to give them that which measure for measure that which they gave to the Jewish people the challenges that they gave so Keisha bulla golem when a Shem comes to redeem the Jewish people gone to Shiveluch time oh yes Hashem even though he originally spoke about a name of only two letters when it came to the redemption itself a sham redeems them with the 72 letter name so this is the first place that we see since I'm a Jewish where we have a small amount so to speak as the theater says says he came under my eyes I said I beg those who are righteous they speak a little bit but they do a lot like MOV no Abraham when he greets them a lot when he greets the angels so he says he can do a little bit for them but he does a lot he brings out a tremendous amount of food and Hashem - because it's a legal righteous they exemplify the behavior of God they bring God's God's manifestation into the world so I Shem - when he speaks he speaks a little bit so to speak and he does a lot he says he's going to redeem us with a two letter name he redeems us with a 72 letter name which of course means try to understand what is the idea of the names the names represent a manifestation of God in this world how we perceive God how we interact with God so God says I'm going to go to interact with the world with a two letter name then only reveal so much and then in the end she actually reveals much more this is his this is his humility his modesty okay that just brings down a few different ways that we see the 72 concept not going to get into that okay very interesting a measure to the next section which is the key to what's going on or how when access is this blessing the blessing that we're speaking about is it starts small it looks like it's something small or it's mentioned that something small described as something small but it becomes much more great much much greater than a sham originally speaks that blessings manifest where within a much greater fashion we speak about the number of thousand we'll get to that okay how does that work how do we get to that so the measure says something which seems to be not connected but it is in fact it's the core java rmi rely be ashamed of eh see Ben's Imre another matter where the light stone in the name of Jesse Ben's emerald is a mop like dealer to the schwa Wroclaw avril lavigne oh why did I Shem when he speaks about God spoke to offer up to a ram and he promised him that he's going to his children are going to end up in a strange land strangers in a strange land and that they're going to be they're going to be in service to they're gonna have difficulties and in the end they're going to be released I was going to bring them out with great Isis might some miracles etc why is the Shem not mentioned to opera moving to Abraham that he's going to give his grandchildren his great-grandchildren the amazing Merida amazing food which she sustained the Jewish people with in the mid bar for forty years why does a from Avene will not receive that information Mary Olivar Tana cascade our kinshasa deacon the Africana says this is the way of the righteous hashem behaves in the way that he expects the righteous to behave i remember i choice in hard day they speak a little bit and they do a lot shem said is going to redeem him routine the Jewish people redeem them but he doesn't mention all the many things that he's going to do on their behalf the Virata another explanation not a depth give me a molecule Ocilla han why - i'm not reveal it to them she look he likes to the hen if you would have revealed it to them how you throw a rock hollow a sales for commercial taro amazing thing you need to understand what this means but the measure says that if the jewish people would have known about the month from a fourth they would have had a mr. être dition but that's what they're going to get they would have said when I came to the mid bar what's the big deal we've already had this we know about this we've experienced this already we ate this in the in Pharaohs place create this month de toluca should know what the measure says how you think that they would say such a thing to haven't let her you know Cyril I'm room the Jewish people when they were in Egypt there were such deep slaves that they had to create bricks even without receiving any heaven now receiving the straw to create the bricks with nevertheless even though they were so impoverished they were so downtrodden what did they say when they were in the mid bar it says the harness are dug up he said we remember the fish that we had a novelty ask though the melons did the good old days they remember the good old days right falafel agiels I had I shouldn't did not want to tell them about the month because he didn't want them to say we've seen this before we know about this before Pella what does it mean what is the matters talking about they wouldn't the month was something that they never experienced never saw they never heard of like they would have had it in Pharaoh's in Pharaoh's Palace as slaves to Paro they never had it they never would have had it what does it mean once the measures mean that they would have said all we had instant Pharaoh's Palace means explanation and we need to understand how this is connected to what we're talking about here the blessings that a Shem or originally says you know manifest is the letter or the two letter name but in the end he manifested the 70-200 turning so it's connected somehow to the idea of till he came under my eyes well you sinned a hard day righteous speak a little bit do a lot like we saw but we need to understand deeper depth alright let's continue Deborah I remember you LOI Bashara VA students Imre another statement of amyloid in the name of years to be a macaque inoculation bakla Avram this is what God said to Abraham to my galvano physical of them that God promised is going to make his children to be many to be great like the stars mean I mean how do we know chana as the verse says Colliers rfo so shall your children be shavelev work on meaning like the stars he took them outside shows and stars he said your children will be like this like the stars above or from barking you in Russia I'm alive when he came to bless them the blessings actually manifested they became even greater than that not really right when Hashem showed this album he said could you pointed me said this how your children are going to be there was almost a a limiting a defining that happened that it could only be as many as the stars that you see but when it comes to the number sort of arrived so many to innumerable to even count and as we see milder life Harbaugh our bet I will make them greater and greater and greater so many when it comes to blessings the blessings are always greater the blessings Michelle says like we said before he does speaks a little bit it does a lot he says that there's gonna be a number but in the end it's going to be much greater than that okay now so so now we get to something very interesting which also seems not to be so clear the connection we definitely see in the Pacific we see that much of anything there's so many and therefore when it comes to judgment when it comes to bringing you you want to come and you want understand what our lockers are you have to go to this judge I can't do everything myself everyone is waiting for me trying to access me and trying to understand what's the right thing for them what's the right Haleh call what needs to be done I can't do by myself there's so many of you we have to create a system of judges right so now the message goes into at that point the point of the system of judges and tells us like this very interesting idea which we also need to understand how is connected here to the idea blessings model ma where's the verse mean when it says to fault painting near Eve a um this email it was government verse says in Psalm chapter 18 verse 44 King David says that he wants to be released from the fighting from the from the worries about those who will fight he was a judge King David was a judge he was someone who they came to with their questions in our waka and he said I want to be released from the fighting of this nation the lommers of it King David so like this fault an immunity on me slowly Haley Deena slug Fontana today I'm Sheila Hale ahem did Exley one-time the verse refers to fact is there is a arm the fighting of the nation sometimes it refers to repay on me the fighting of my nation with these two different ways of expressing this so the measure says sometimes I will have a Tyne on them King David is saying something I will have something that I'm upset about some grievance with the Jewish people and sometimes the Jewish people have some grievance with me I want to be released from that I don't want have any grievances on them I don't want them having any grievances with me Omer la koteshwara who HM says to King David domination of Hearts lon you have not even become their king and you're speaking about the fact that you're going to be responsible for them I have had for Meniere's Camilla column I swear to your sham says because of your recognition of your responsibility towards them and your interest in Rafi being any grievances your already I already have appointed you to be their King over the front of Holloman Issa I see a Vanessa Taylor and I believe she bowed out huh amazing thing he says he says since you have made me their king I want you to please put it in their hearts put it in the heart of the Jewish people that they should listen to me they should hear what I'm saying they should accept one essentia can consider it says the Shaima is ending shamili you should use their ears to listen to me and there's a few things we need to understand here in this magicians description of King David speaking about him as a leader as a judge you want them to listen you know I don't want them to have any grievances what's the idea of the Jewish people not having any grievances I mean have you ever heard you know two people go into it then they come into it antara they want to be judged one of them is going to come out happy the other one's going to come out unhappy that's just how it is so what does it mean I don't you have any grievances how's that possible what does that mean and what does it mean what's the acne they should hear this idea of hearing in its context governor mouth wants them to hear to accept what are you saying what is the idea of hearing and again how does it attach how does it connect to the topic of brockless the blessings that were speaking about until now Lloyd numbers of King David said additionally to see mainly the rich going make me it's also in the same verse make me to be the head of the nation's Oh a breath here you've done this ago Bob when we threatened you myself a lilica if you are the one who's judging the Jewish people so you're going to be given over to meaning they're going to say there is no way out you're going to be judged if you're going to be judging the Jewish people they are going to ask God for the proper judgment and the vanished continues and says that indeed Hashem judges the judges those who are judging the Jewish people they are held accountable for their judgments which is also an interesting concept we'll see how much we get into that but we also need to understand what is the idea that there's that there's an accountability how in this context or how does it relate what we're saying that there's an accountability the judges are judged based on the fact that they're judging the Jewish people there's there are held accountable for what they do for what they say so to understand what's going on here the the thought that I had here is a depth to the thought that I had here is what it's the idea of a month let's bring it back to the month how do we access blessings you know the Mun with something which was his birthday email because I'll say now impersonate the mana so if you would just eat manna wouldn't anything else first of all you eat a little bit and feel full you don't feel hungry anymore you feel like you have what you need that's with them one of the amazing things of the mana besides to that person never had to use the bathroom they were in the mid bar for 40 years say only at the Manatee they're not have to use the facilities the mana was a spiritual food that was completely need laden a of completely consumed within a person's innards there was no refuge there was no extra there was nothing was that's the idea of blessing blessing is it you have a little bit becomes a lot so Digimon room I asked voice in our bay they say a little bit they do a lot Hashem says I'm going to come with the name of two letters I'm going to manifest with my two letter name manifests with a 72 letter name and interestingly even the 72 letter name is dr. 72 letters but it's threes it's 72 sets of three letter names so even within the very name itself there's a multiplicity there's a there's a deepening there's a reboot there's more and more how does one access the blessings how does one access the idea of the month the idea of Misbah resume if he has what he needs that person has what he needs there's no refuse is no extra is exactly what he needs how does the person access step blessing as a person access receiving more see what seem to be more and I believe hidden inside of here is an amazing thing and it has to do the question um yes we said what does it mean that Hashem did not want to reveal to avril lavigne oh the idea of the month because the Jewish people would say oh we know about this from before the month what is the name of the month as the atheistic points out the one the the very name of the moment expresses the fact that when the Jewish people saw it for the first time they said mom who what is this the word month means what what is it it was something which they had never heard of it was something they had never seen before it's something they couldn't conceive up can you imagine food that you eat a little bit and it feels you feel full from eating a little bit can imagine food that you eat you never have to use the facilities after that amazing thing what is this that is the key my friends the Bravo the key to receiving blessings is the question what is this it's the humility when cuz when when the Jewish people say oh we remember how good it was in the old days when we were in Egypt we had wonderful fish and we had melon you remember how good it wasn't we all days when you were slaves and you didn't you might make bricks and you didn't even have straw with which to make those bricks you weep that's the ultimate first time is the ultimate denial of the question of taking out of that place of utter hardships the ultimate hardships is brought you to a place where all he needs are taken care of and all you can say is oh I remember those good old days when I add the fish and the melon when the measure says that they would have said if they knew about it they would have said I remember what we had this month in the Pharaoh's Palace they were in the palace in the times of Pharaohs Egypt Magister seems to be saying as far as I understand it that they would have said if they would have known if they would have had a mass or ax that they're going to receive the money with all we know about this already the the you so the foundational idea of the Mun is I don't know what it is I've never heard of this before how did I get into brothel and I get into blessings how I get into God's graces I don't know about it I've never heard of this the question asking the question now I'm reading this magician I'm trying to understand it and I want to share with you a beautiful idea but I don't know what the menus is saying I don't see how the content of the Mun connects to the concept of blessings I don't see how King David his idea of being the the leader and not whining him to judge Shana I want to judge them I want them to hear I'm saying what does it mean what is the connection when I when I enter into a mentorship I want to understand and I asking a questions what is going on here the question of Manu I get into a place of humility again took place where I don't know everything it's not my ego it's not oh I know it I know all about this look how good things were before why did you bring me to now that's all Iko but the measure is telling us the path in is Manu it's how what is this what is this that's our answer to blessings Hashem starts up and says I'm only going to tell you reveal to you a two letter name that's all it sounds like a little bit so they can they speak a little bit and they do a lot what is the idea the idea is that in the speaking a little bit in not making grandiose all the things that a person is planning or all the goodness or the person is doing but rather speaking a little bit there's a humility there there's a question what is it going to be what's going to happen only a two letter name of a son that's all it's going to be revealed and in the end because of the smallness because of the humility that's expressed there it opens up the possibility for a much greater revelation for a much greater manifestation that's the 72 letter name of Hashem and that's the month you people receive the Mun because they didn't know about the month they received the blessings because they didn't know about the blessings now in trying to and the connection to King David in his request do not judge them they not judge him I think the key to it is in his asking that they hear that they listen to what he says the idea of listening is connected very much to the idea of blessings how so because when I listen as we've spoken about in the past when I listen to I hear one word and another word and another word and another word and then we put all the words together and the concept comes together but hear it in pieces within the idea of hearing in pieces is that I it's going to take time this humility in the fact that it takes time for me to get to the point where at 22 minutes and 52 seconds into this podcast it's taken a long time for me to get to the point but there's a humility and listening and waiting and asking questions and then trying to understand the answers and that humility brings us to the answers if the Jewish people can listen to King David if they can hear with humility the fact that yes they have their understanding of reality and as they come into a court and they say this is my view and the other person says this is his view each person has their view and there's a bigger picture that we're trying to understand by looking at all the views if I can listen if I can receive if I can ask the question if I can recognize that I don't know everything then I can hear something beyond my perception that's the King David was asking he was saying Hashem put it in the hearts of these people that they be able to hear something beyond how they understand things let them hear let them hear let them not judge me because they recognize that I'm trying to see the bigger picture let them recognize that there is a bigger picture let them recognize nothing to have the humility of money what is it what is the idea if they can come in with that recognition they won't have any grievances against me and I won't have any grievances against them and so that's the amazing thing you know you have a blessing and the blessing manifests greater and greater in the lives of the Jewish people if they have that humility to ask Mun who what is it to recognize that they don't know everything you don't see everything they don't have the full picture they need to see a bigger picture and I was thinking you know the message mentions the fact later on that that the juice you are blessed to be like stars why like stars and wine I like the Sun or like the moon so the measure says because the sum of the moon are going to be darkened in the future time but what's the idea why did something were darkened they're not the Stars the reason is because the stars are small there are many stars a share manifest through the stars as it's isn't dark for shelter on Khan speaks about their manifest through all the Jewish people if there's only one great light that it shall manifest through so then it's not that level of humility it's not the recognition that we need each other when Shem says I'm manifesting like through you like stars sources he's saying each one of you is special I need all of you to manifest in this world and I need each and every individual to recognize that I need all the stars in order to manifest my greatness in the world so there's a humility that comes it's a recognition of a greater picture mm else is asking for King David is asking for my sure obey no I'm sorry is asking for and so that humility is represented in the Stars and that blessing comes about when we act like the stars that blessing comes about when we say Manu what is it we don't know everything we don't have our ego getting in the way the blessing comes when we start small so you can I'm in my odd awesome heart be they do a lot Shem should bless us a um should help me ask you to bless me and I'm blessing you know Shem should help us to recognize this lesson to internalize the lesson of Manu how can we understand recognize that we don't know everything recognize that were a piece of a greater whole and indeed a Shem should pour out his blessings and we should be Zeca you should merit to see the day in cases like abraha idly died the blessings are so great and we continue to see a shine thank you for the blessings thanks so much for listening and wonderful Shabbos was made possible through the gracious
