Rabenu Yonah speaks about the hope that is engendered by our Bitachon, and the idea that Hashem is All-Powerful and therefore, he can save us from even the most dire situation. He also speaks of the importance of realizing that all that occurs to us is from Hashem, and the humans who bring it about are just His messengers.

you're listening to the 56th edition of
the bittoken podcast
and we're going to continue in robina
and he says like this
with tulane we spoke about the fact
that
goes in two directions comes out of a
munna
there's something called helles which is
hoping
believing that believing that comes out
of bitaken it's an extension of it
the
this desire this
uh you know believing that things are
going to be good for us
that also comes out of bitakhan and
therefore it's referred to as
which means attached
and it also the passage is written yiv
khar
okay so we're going to have an
understanding based on that
who is attached to all life
this person has to be talking parish
what does it mean
yes
myself
a person has hope
to change his ways to be better
because the person knows and he has
faith
a person recognizes that he has an
opportunity an ability to choose and
therefore
he has be taken a person
has hope why does a person have hope
because
he knows that it's possible to change he
knows that it's possible to be better he
knows that it's possible to attach
himself to hashem was the source of life
therefore a person
has hope as long as he's alive he can
change
the name
another aspect of this be taken that
we've mentioned
hashem
is that a person should believe
in all that hashem promises you
all you didn't view
has made many promises to the jewish
people
to individuals as well
all the wonders and the goodnesses
that
he promised through his messengers
always fulfill his word and he will
he will he will
up make his word upstanding
says regards to
regards to abraham
that he believed in hashem
the nemer passage says
here nobody
the grass will dry up
and the flowers
will become
destroyed but the word of hashem will
stand forever which means that there are
things in the world that we think about
parts of nature
that are beautiful
and that are represent life perhaps the
green of the grass and the
beauty of the flowers but those things
as we know are fleeting they dry up
but hashem's word
stands forever
we have to believe we have to know that
if hashem made a promise the jewish
people are going to return to the land
of israel
the jewish people will be protected
forever
we need not be afraid
that one of the things that we learn
from from
is that we need to know
that everything is in the hands of
hashem
hashem can change nature
you can change a person's muzzle you can
change
the way mazel the word mazel which we
think of as luck it doesn't mean luck it
means it's from a language of nozzle
which means that hashem sins down from
higher realms to lower realms he has a
certain path that the chef up travels
and traverses
but
we need to know
that hashem can change the path that she
can change in nature she can change
even the order that he set up
in order to bring a person
that which is good for him
says
first samuel chapter 14 verse two
that the hand of hashem
i'm sorry ain't sure there's nothing
that stops hashem from saving from
salvation
whether it requires a lot or a little
hashem can do anything hashem is
unlimited
the gum kitsara kuraifa
even if as the passage says
in tehillim in psalms chapter 22 verse
that the difficulty the problem
is very near it seems like how will we
get out of this issue how will we escape
from the problem
yeshua saying
hashem's salvation is also close
it seems that the problem is close but
really the salvation is close he called
you
hashem can do anything
there is no limitation on hashem's
abilities
in mr pasik says
isaiah 51
chapter 6
it tells us an amazing thing look look
up to the heavens
turn your eyes heavenward
and look down to the land meaning can
look from the highest aspect of reality
to the lowest aspect of reality
and then he doesn't quote the rest of
the puzzle here but the rest of the
puzzle i wrote down on the side
the heavens and the earth right we think
of those things as something that are
eternal
it could last forever
but they will actually
they will actually wear out
yeshua kenya musan says the pasta says
the verse those who live there will die
hashem salvation however is not like
that in comparison so we spoke about
that the grass and we spoke about those
are things that are obviously fleeting
but even the heavens and the earth
which seem to have longevity
nevertheless they also can
be destroyed or or you know they can
pass away
the human beings who live on the earth
can die but the promise of hashem
the promises that god god makes to us
the jewish people etc
to us as individuals
those last forever those promises
so even when things are tough
even when things are challenging
we need to place our trust on hashem
a person needs to place his trust in a
time of oppression a time of darkness he
needs to know that the truth is
hashem can save me from any problem from
any situation
can flip around in the blink of an eye
even if the difficulty the sword is on
the person's neck
right
even if it seems like death is near i
will still hope to hashem i'll still
place my faith in god
this is what we spoke about before when
we said that there is a tachalas a hope
a person has hope but bobby talking
things can seem to be very desperate
very difficult perhaps even impossible
but bobby talking has hope he has hope i
know it's going to be okay
i know it's going to work out i believe
it's going to work out you know it seems
that there's no there's no hope
one of the
stories marisha shiva tells often and
has been talking vods but i've heard
them in other vods as well
the story of his father-in-law reviewed
libnecrits
who
was during world war ii
and the people of his town he thought he
was in a safe place it didn't end up
being a safe place he thought it was in
a safe place
it was on the border between russia and
the russians had taken over the city
and
because he wouldn't renounce his other
citizenship he wouldn't
admit you know take on the russian
citizenship
he ended up being sent to siberia
and in the process being sent to siberia
so many of the people who were there
who
sadly afterwards were killed in the war
but they didn't know that at that point
that it was dangerous to be where they
were they thought siberia was a terrible
sentence it was a sentence to death
it was a life sentence to siberia
most of the people died there 40 of
people died
but he heard a voice inside of him
saying it's going to be all right
it's going to be all right and indeed he
and his wife and his children
one of whom was my rishi she was is my
worship russian she was wife
so
she should be healthy and well
so they were saved in siberia they were
sent for something that seemed like a
terrible situation but his bitarchen
spoke inside of him he had hope
he had hope
and that's the
challenge
that the rebellion is talking about the
hope that a person has even in desperate
situations
it's going to be good
i know it's going to be good
that's what we mentioned earlier
62 9 in psalms trust in hashem at all
times
perish because what does it say at all
times what does the verse mean when it
says that
it means to say
gamba is shatsara kuraiva even at times
when the difficulties seem close yeah
the autumn directly not something you
don't know how you're going to be saved
it doesn't seem possible to be saved
it seems like this situation is hopeless
vineyard i'll be talking
about
this idea i'll be talking that we've
spoken about
is something that's mentioned
in the verses
right we see when it comes to be talking
this kind of language of trust him at
all times trust him forever what does
adeyad mean forever
god created this world and the next
world
means
forever and ever what is forever and
ever so it's referring to zerabinion to
two worlds this world and the next
hashem created both worlds
this world in the next world
so what is it teaching us
he's created all of the reality the
deepest reality the physical
uh superficial reality as well as the
deeper spiritual reality
which we refer to
everything is in his hands
therefore
trust in hashem could call
hashem can do anything hashem has all of
the power
of the quran
it says
that you need to know before whom are
you serving we're serving hashem
who are we acting in front of
who are we trying so to speak to to give
nachas ruach to to give satisfaction to
through our good deeds
it's in front of hashem
and he's the one who's going to pay
he's the one who's the ability to pay
so to speak
he he gives a good reward to all those
who have done good
so what is this teaching us
what is the idea
sorry that's the previous statement
when it tells us when it tells us about
um
recognizing that we're serving hashem so
it's teaching us here two concepts in
bitcoin
that we mentioned
trust in hashem forever and ever what
does it mean
you need to remember hashem created all
of the worlds as we said and therefore
because of show me the interact reality
the outer reality all of reality
everything is in his hand and therefore
we can trust him and it's going to be
good because he can bring a salvation in
a moment
another aspect of this which is very
important is that hashem makes a promise
of skar he promises that we're going to
receive a certain reward in this world
the next world there are results of our
actions that are positive and good
when we do good deeds we do good actions
so good things come out so i'm getting
distracted because there's a turtle in
my backyard here and i don't want him to
walk into my house i left the door open
but he's not walking in
okay
so there's an aspect here of trusting in
hashem that a person is going to receive
his due reward just like a shepherd
takes care of his flock
remember me
says
who has
who has measured
when it comes to the depths of the
waters
i believe that's what it means
we talk the idea that we're going to
read here
is that the concept that you're talking
is
that we mentioned
shall we talk about them
that we should not trust in people we
have to trust in hashem
it's only hashem is the one who takes
care of us therefore we need to trust in
him and know that everything is going to
be good
hey the bahamas you need to know the
truth
it's easy to trust in people it's it's
you know we're human the people are the
ones that we see here
but the pasik is teaching us
telling us
that
nobody can help us
unless hashem is geyser unless hashem
decrees
that that person is going to help us
like the posix says
curse is a person
who trusts in a human being
detach yourself from people
detach yourself from people means
don't think
that this person perhaps is the only
person who can help you but also don't
think that this is really the person
that this is really the source
of your positive
situation it's not a human being
if there are people who are
your boss the person who gives you the
money
whatever the situation is it's not him
he's just a messenger from hashem he's
just
a
hashem has to provide you with your
needs
and the reverse is also true the the
inverse of this is also true
no one can cause you harm no one could
cause you damage
number
says i trusted in hashem i will not be
afraid what can a human being do what
can flesh
do to me nobody can do anything to me
hashem lee lawyer
hashem is mine i won't be afraid what
can a person do
in them says
hashem is my light and my salvation
there's no one that i need to fear
so we have here
foundational ideas here rabinian is
teaching us
as we said
again just to go over it we have to have
hope right hashem can do anything
even in a difficult situation
we have to have tacheles with we have to
have a positive outlook it's going to be
good
things look really bad
the sword is there on a person's neck
don't give up hashem can save me he's
created the entire reality he can save
me in this moment he has he said he can
do anything
and
and this idea that
hashem
is nemo
hashem is trusted trustworthy makes a
promise he's going to fulfill the
promise promises salvation call israel
personally and
and nationally
and final point last point as we said
don't trust in people
don't believe that the people of course
we have to be thankful
as we are thankful to people
as we express our gratitude to others so
then
it reflects in our feelings of gratitude
to hashem
but we have to constantly remind
ourselves always remember that it's not
the person
it's not
the
means it's not the it's not what we see
in front of us but it's always hashem
using that person whether it's for a
negative situation or whether it's for a
positive situation we need to always
remember
that everything is from hashem thank you
so much for listening see you again next
time
