388 views
Why was it important to give out the portions of Israel through a lottery and also asking the Urim v'tumim? Why couldn't Moshe himself determine the unique role of each person and tribe without these tools? What is the concept of the land of Israel as the 'helpmate' of the people of Israel? How does one's portion in Israel correspond to his unique purpose in life? How does one elevate the land of Israel to higher levels of holiness? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.

this week's Barcia is a doubleheader
partials mitosis and mas a and
ordinarily when we have a doubleheader
like this so we end up discussing the
first part show the first positive I
want to actually go straight to the
second partial I'm sure we do a
beautiful piece again from our prime
Friedlander and by the way this is
basically the last or the second-to-last
piece in his safer on minbar and we do
not yet have it has not yet been
released
safer on the forum so we'll be back to
analyzing image Russian as we usually do
but for this week we still have
something to share beautiful idea
beautiful deep peace from crime free
land there he says like this Lucas
artist LP girl so it says in the parsha
in Marseille Savi's ben-israel Vaughn
Martha Lemke at him boy my lapel or it's
cannon Zeiss should probably be
hilarious cannons ice arts ashati Perla
Habana hula airs cannot legally sell so
God commands Moshe to speak to the B'nai
Israel to the people of Israel and say
to them they're coming to the land of
Canaan and they're going to receive it
as an inheritance the land of Canaan in
all of its borders Rashi Rashi says in
that passage by the way is in numbers
chapter 34 verse 2 Rashi says teabowl
ahem I'll shame Shanna's Kalka the girl
knickers calculation of Fela what is
language of falling what does mean it
falls to you sure temple ahem
since it's going to be given out with a
with all lottery a girl as a lottery
therefore it's the language of falling
so we're gonna discuss and try to
understand what is the idea of the girl
what is the idea of the lottery or
what's that why is it that a Shem when
he distributes the the pieces of Eric
sees fell to the Jewish people why is it
that it's distributed through a lottery
what is the concept here and it makes it
sound random yeah we're going to see
it's not at all random not only is it
not random and it's extremely clear that
it's
could borrow who himself God Himself who
is directing the lottery so to speak
it's not really a lot of Riyadh Leclaire
AHA LucasArts Appy girl hi Soraka day
she looked eh Tata many maja Lucas AHA
locking carefully on this house is that
why was it why was it apportioned this
way why wasn't individual given out with
a lottery so this should not be
complaints on the part of the Jewish
people over the fact that they hey I
don't like my portion why did I get this
portion why did you get that portion no
everything is very clearly apportioned
it's not by chance it's a type of girl
which is a lot like our lot in life not
a lot or a lottery like by chance
well a basically Acuras Kalka in this
way everyone will recognize his portion
me-tv shall Adam shoot Tommy Marcus as
mokuba Chaka mughelli the nature of a
human being he said he always feels like
he's not getting what he deserves
he's he's not getting what's coming to
him Magilla Tobias and of course he
feels like he deserves the best of the
best
regression cinema VSAC lovely escola LM
cool eh these types of feelings that a
person allows to simmer and boil inside
of him so it can cause him to swallow up
the entire world I'm not rich I say Liu
Shui kedusha however there is something
there's truth to these thoughts these
feelings Commissioner Mauro Rosales or
say just Alice's good morn Sun Hedren
page 37a call Emma but really never
eylem each person is obligated to say
the world was created for me right a
person shouldn't say to himself it's
also a big eight sorrowful person to say
I have no purpose here I have no life
I'm not significant no cause I'll say
every single human being is obligated to
say that the world was created just for
me wish feeling never Harlem is a Makai
of the homeless abundance is Greylock
Reyes motel solo vocal eylem this type
of thinking having this awareness of the
world is created for me is bound or it
or the point of it is to bring a person
to an awareness to a thought process of
the great responsibility that's upon him
for in regards to the entire
world made of sugar miss Kazue chemical
I'm gonna capitalize my plum also a
recognition that the whole world is here
frame but don't take anything for
yourself
villa die become kuruvi one person can
live on just the small amount of of
carob wanna meet me my button Muto
shilada Michigan in Rome but the
mistaken view of this idea she like
cafes color elements are Kaaba Lodi is
the person thinks he's the whole world
is great for me and I deserve everything
liudmila highly commercial Chaka Chaka
therefore person can go with this
thought that everything belongs to him
okay so that's the dangerous approach
the same thought can be used in a
negative way or in a positive way only I
shall have a knock upon my do I look at
all rights I said that goodbye grandma
nice little gumboot rahmatullah so
before we actually translate what we
just read so the idea is that since a
person can think that everything is is
mine everything is Maggie Ellie I
deserve everything
so therefore the Torah assigned each
person specifically and clearly what is
the portion in Eretz Israel and Allah
will soon see that the portion Eretz
Israel very much represents the person's
specific purpose and life what he is
here what each and every individual he
or she is here to bring into the world
but he says that it's important to
understand why does the Kaluga the
splitting up of the Land of Israel have
to be done with a lottery and also
interestingly it has to be done with you
or in the Tumen the tuna or the special
breast plate that the coin God or the
high priest would wear and they could
ask questions of God and God would
respond and the room would light up and
they could see that as we're going to
say soon that first thing would they
would say what's the portion which piece
of Israel goes to which or they would
ask it was a yes or no question they
would ask this is portion go to this
particular tribe and then the orbit will
respond yes or no and then they would
they would do the lottery and it would
be the same exact the same exact thing
what happened okay beef here at Bashir
saluti I could Tata been a.m. my gosh
she's keep talking okay I see Lucas up
the girl it's difficult understand just
because you know we don't want them to
feel like they're not getting that there
should be we don't want people to feel
like oh I deserve this why did he get
this therefore we do it with the
slaughter eeschema credit he's diamond
up y'all girl should circle you circle
shame it it happens to be that this is
the correct portion what is the idea of
the lottery huh girl
Mazal lottery has to do the content of
Mazel and as he explains here on the
bottom the word Mazel we think of it as
Mazel Tov you know you should have good
luck but we're does not mean luck
the word Mazel the root of the word
muscle is no zel which means to drip or
to come down as to do the chef a-- they
outpouring or the influx that God is
sending into the world comes it comes
drips down so to speak that's the word
Mazel so it has nothing to do with luck
has everything to do with that which is
specifically apportioned by God so the
concept of the lottery corresponds to
this but vitiges Afghan economy what
Sheila Milam even hear us Vinay Adam
concept of the lottery is something
that's beyond the choice of a human
being these are the things that have to
do with the apportioned lot of the human
being my specific role in life hey maybe
we should be Micra khakis damaged people

how a sham showed Moshe I mean all
that's going to be this is another
important and interesting point which is
directly related to what we're speaking
about
Hashem showed Moses all that was going
to be in the future of every single
generation of the Jewish people
how's Eleanor our sages tell us in the
measures it sounds many surmise Allah

righteous ones of that generation shanem

those who are sinners of the generation
we'll see you soon

there you see Habanera the saying that

co-op our surgical shave it when and
wise is being told here what is the idea
here
as fashion was giving each and every one
of the sheraton their portion in the
land so Moshe was also able to see
correspond to this the past of each of
the tribes and the future of each of the
tribes how that specially tough kid how
the special purpose of each tribe would
manifest some reckless world Harlem I
should say you die routine show called
casual call Shamian God showed Moses the
specific spiritual purpose of each and
every tribe as Coliseum Shamu rush
Alchemist Israel and all their future

had on laconic vu welcome corresponding
to that they was set their portion of
Chanukah Lucas saw heist Malvado P girl
gone pyramid tomb it was necessary that
not just be by lottery but it also be by
the umma two men a girl your knock would
cease gonna explain why we need both we
needed the lottery ship ahead in the
cotton Akiva he'll give a voice of Shem
team spirit mascara bashira you don't
understand that each and every person
persons free will comes within a
framework each person what does that
mean it means that each person comes to
this world and he has
specific purpose for example I have a
specific purpose besides for sharing his
words of Torah also someone who have God
granted 8 hours and music so within
music I have to make choices my choices
within music what type of music what
messages do I try to give over with my
music
all of these are our result but the bit
here that I have the free will that I
have comes within the framework of the
purpose that God placed me in the world
in order to accomplish and that's true
for each tribe and that's true for each
and every human being every individual
volition take value here awesome so
where person is the the but here that a
person has the choice the free will that
person will manifest in the world so yes
he has a choice over you know the fruit
there is free will but it's within a
certain framework whatever to Ambala
Hades so that's expressed by the lottery
but when I turn my idea
Shaina girl microcosmic on the point of
the woman was to inform the Jewish
people that it's not just happenstance
that the lottery came out this way elico
VAR h LP a deist icon embryo but rather
it's something which is set from the
beginning
based on the ashrams creation and assure
the fees a mechanical method S Kalikow
each person receives his portion so the
portion and Land of Israel corresponds
to the person's portion his lot in life
his specific you to specific purpose in
life Lovisa
nominal shaft of ram we can understand
the continuation of the statement of our
sages should be Muhammad's a that at
this point
Harrigan Kalama is Colossus idiom Moshe
was also showed all of the future
generations called are useless of
helicam Euclid Lebovitz of Shem should
make a bed in the door each generation
has a specific portion I just like each
shaded each drive as a specific purpose
each generation in time also has a
specific purpose in service of God

bahattin Latour each generation and its
accomplishments antara a car
responding to the each generation during
the Derbyshire shifted their him Nick

of each generation also the judges of a
generation also correspond to the
teaching that's necessary for that
generation come on there are some in
need for the clinical adore each
generation depends the the the way that
that generation is going to be judged in
heaven will depend on the person who's
leading that generation King him out to
be Emma Skye sallam ala Dora the leader
of the generation leaves the their

impressions on each generation humidor

why there's an obligation on each of us
to to recognize who our leaders are and
to follow their leadership and to be
Metheny ourselves to them to humble
ourselves in front of them wish or asami
kamala growing ruby saw slanter just
like just like the song account spoke
about ro slaughter that he was the chef
at a door he was the judge of that
generation dorva door woman he loved neo
during him a bussiness acacia he talked
of this rock of the door right he was
told about the each generation and its
leaders because the leaders of each
generation are the vessels they're part
of the Kanan that we have the the the
tools that we have for art for each
generation to accomplish its purpose a
faint starlets Iceland king Hema
estimates you some who say door that's
why we need to listen to them we need to
listen to our leaders because they are
assigned by God there was our pleasure
that said we go so what's the idea that
showed him each generation and those who
were the sinners and the righteous ones
of the generation him cry mystic
salvation Lakota Sabathia show adores my
name is kal-el Ismail homicides are very
interesting we need to understand who
the sinners are we need to understand
the the mean I could sell a cassette
from one extreme to the other because we
need to see where we fall what are the
trials of our generation what are the
sins that are going on in our generation
and what are the tsadikim law the people
who are in the highest levels what is
their accomplishment because we need to
know what is the the challenge of this
generation called our Omaha to get so
even if C&S
each generation in the and the fights
that it has the challenges the that they
face should be had to laconic vom miss
you know sad or correspond to that are
set the difficulties of that generation
ganache Baja does is been a motive Lara
there's also an effect from one to the
other between good and bad okay and Ain
honor your own Aloha Vinicius Adarsh
offer we can't really understand very
interesting based on this idea we can't
understand the challenges of previous
generations and we see in in the early
1900's so the Jews that came to America
so they had challenges and they gave up
Shabbos in order to work they give up
the Sabbath we don't understand their
challenge and if they would look at us
they want to understand our challenges
in our generation the challenges with
the Internet the challenges with all the
all the different challenges that we
face off with you know hawky hey
Mohammed Amin bahattin Luda who those
challenges were specific for that
generation become like Tommy - Allah
Hossack masconi's Maduro we can't always
come to conclusions about a generation
or from that generation can August has
our hat on the door because the way that
that generation acted had to do with
that specific generation the leaders of
those generations so so they had to lead
them in that way but just because they
were led in that way and they were
instructing that way doesn't mean that
it applies to us we need to follow our
leaders in our generation now now we get
to a point which is Eric's East well he

Jewish people even when they are impure
in Kavala device I'm a dreamer but are
awesome obviously not at the level as it
is when they're pure yes ETF shorts the

explains because there needs to be a

to the final point because it should

szymczak Asif this is what we find the

Hashem mutters cutroso arts enough for
us to see that God can place his his
holiness on this land he could trust to
leave ahead in my scene and and the
holiness emergency struggle of the Land
of Israel dependent on our actions Eretz
Messiah he says an amazing thing which
we spoken about in the past but it's so
important to hear it again
XSI merits can I tell you how arrested
sauce is bi sir
Egypt and Israel were the most terrible
places the most decadent spiritually
deccan in places in the world efficacy
return like the verses tell us in
Leviticus chapter 18 verse three Camus
miss Rama sure shot thermolysis ooh
don't do like the actions of the land of
Egypt lucuma sayers can assure name of a
specialist ooh
and like the actions of the people in
land of Canaan because of rock Russia
Russia tells us my key to my sensual
midstream choking on roku call me color
noise it teaches us that the actions of
the Canaanites and the actions of the
Egyptians were worse more decadent than
all the other nations or some Akash
waves from a cuckoo man I call a line of
Israel was the most decadent place in
the world
birra morale morale tells us she kedusha
cease well doc let's assume it's sad and
that we spoke about previously that
actually the holiness of the people of
Israel caused the Egyptians to be
lowered should I can negate la Hache
kiss as as mama same lesya to Moscow so
they became very lowly because of the
fact that they were in proximity of the
Jewish people's holiness they became
unholy Danish arcite's easterly kedusha
surely nuts la Isla de Caen and da hai
summits are gonna go - really - MA right
this is what happens it was prepared to
be a place of position for the people of
Israel and that itself cause the the
Canaanite nations to be pushed down
while they are Kira Satsuma by uprooting
the impurity and hiring a sign nation
God says I will kill your enemies
Kinesis banana urged Israel he never
come back our kedusha that's how it
became the the root of holiness the
Jewish people come in bali debita I
correct myself vegan army this is how
God shows his amazing
or the Jewish people come in and this is
the place Lana these are was the place
where we are able to manifest the
greatest kedusha the greatest holiness
but it's the Jewish people who are able
to do that and it's not the nations of
the world
hell I dare say it's a hardened ilk
home- should start self economy strong
he finishes off final few lines here
with an amazing statement that in all
the generations the eighth Sahara fights
against the holiness of the Land of
Israel and the holiness of the people of
Israel but if you mean you honey as soon
as de Reynaud specifically in our
generation and this is what I'm feeling
and talking in the 70s and the 80s so
gases for OCONUS this superficiality
emptiness and today we can talk about
the the issues that are going on of
licentiousness
bhavani semi-trailer ad for our home us
one was my service this causes people to
run after physicality and and being
overly involved in physicality which
retort of less consequence news to
kedusha we on the other hand need to
strengthen ourselves in modesty and in
holiness live rock may concern yasuko's
to run away from externalities from from
not real Turkish from that from from
external superficial righteousness so
their channel yes so the Hoffman be
known its new kedusha its requires us to
have more of an awareness of modesty and
holiness and this is something that no
one else can know about because on the
surface we can look very modest but
nobody knows what's going on behind
closed doors so he's telling us that's
what it's required of us
you live in Archie's RAL you need to
have a greater holiness you're a Jew
needs to have a greater holiness grander
modesty now the Dukakis rock may got
some cushy on us and by doing so we can
distance ourselves from physicality and
from superficiality
so I want to bless you I ask you to
bless me Hashem should help us then we
should recognize who we are
should recognize our portion not just in
the Land of Israel if someone is safer
to live in the land emergency stop but
even someone it's not living in Land of
Israel we can recognize what is our
specific spiritual purpose in life
Hashem showed up was to strengthen
ourselves in the areas of modesty in the
holiness some shall help us to be safely
to come back to the Land of Israel and
we should be second to the gula
to the redemption comparable you may
know I mean thank you so much for
