this beautiful series of tum Treasures one of the nicest most beautiful in all of to hillan behold how good and how pleasant is the dwelling of Brothers to have brothers together nothing more beautiful which Brothers all of us are brothers here we are for the last six months ding for each other Brothers how beautiful it is let's be honest the last few months is tragic and as disappointing and as heartbreaking as it's been to see CLA in such pain and such suffering but there's been such beautiful and it's hard to imagine how must get so much it's so beautiful to see my children these brothers unified but unfortunately sometimes we become fragmented and even over the last few weeks we become more and more fragmented some of those ugly issues have reared their ugly head as the war drags on and some of the issues have not gone away but we dive in and we hope and we pray that we'll be able to be we'll be able to unify ourselves again because the know the strength lies in cl's fragmentation when we are lacking when we are lacking Unity we have no strength when we're together we have all the strength in the world you know I heard a beautiful shot it says that when Mo's hands were raised CLA Soul was Victorious in battle okay and when they were lowered K was defeated in battle now to the hands of wage war or lose the war as long as we looked towards heaven we were victorious and if not then we lost but I heard a beautiful chot simply understood it means that we put put our faith in God and of course that is ultimately where the Yeshua will find itself if only CLA all of CLW is and is will put their faith in the hands of Hashem will be victorious but you know why did moa's hands have to be raised they were held up by Aaron and why do they have to be held up they were heavy perhaps the shot is that when moa's hands were raised that means that fellow Jews were lifting each other's heavy burdens and when we are able to lift each other's burdens then our Yeshua comes but if when we see our brothers and they're heavy-hearted and they're not able to lift their heads and to lift their hearts and hands towards heaven then we have no chance to win but as long as we lift each other as long as we hold each other up then we will be Victorious look hamon understood that the Jewish people are easily defeated you know how there is a nation that is scattered and separate amongst the nations of the world and the says when we're F and meur when we are separate and Scattered when we are not United H says it's easy street for me that's when I'm able to defeat the Jewish people but when when the Jewish people were able to join together to gather together to unite and put all of our differences aside all of the things that threaten to break us apart put them all aside just like we did after October 7th when we're able to do that there's nothing that will stop us you know it's no secret there's many different tashas many different schools of thought amongst the Jewish people amongst the religious people and sometimes we allow that pettiness to get in the way recently Rabbi Judah Michelle a good friend told me a story and I put it in the introduction to my latest book called now that's a story and the story was a beautiful story he told me that he lives in raat ches and there was a couple y who were walking by the house right before shabas and he sees that these yes are like eyeing the house and finally one of them comes knocking on the door and he walks in and he says did you live here like 10 years ago you had an Israeli flag out says yeah we've lived here for more than 10 years sure and he starts crying uncontrollably uncontrollably he says what's wrong he says I'm embarrassed and ashamed to tell you that 10 years ago I walked past your house and I saw an Israeli flag out and I ripped it off the door and one of your children answer the door and I looked out and they were like calling out to me to give them back the flag and I laughed I laughed and mocked them well I want you to know I woke up after October 7th and every morning I have this gwing feeling in my n many times I wanted to come by I wanted to ask M over the years but now I feel like I must and he begged M begged forgiveness shom in my immaturity I acted so fanatically and so outrageously if I didn't agree with it I should have walked by bothers another fellow Jew to rip off the flag from his house it's inexcusable well R Judah was there together with his wife and his newly W daughter was sitting on the couch and she says I want you to know something my husband's been off at War Kat haven't spent a day together since the War Began in the of this Bas M the request of M she started crying and she said let it be a for my husband and for our siblings and their husbands that everybody should come back home safely when we're United there's nothing more beautiful to Hashem and Hashem will no doubt Keep Us Safe moving on to the next cap the 14 134th paric ofum the final one of the sheal it's what the levim chanted what they Sayang while standing on the 15th and highest step right in front of the AAR and we need to stop for a moment and put ourselves into the shoes of the levim actually they weren't wearing shoes because you don't wear shoes in the B mik but stand in their place and look out over the Majesty of the B mikdash and the Beautiful sounds and the music and the singing what a what what a scene that's the capital that we just read behold bless Hashem all you Servants of Hashem who stand in the house of Hashem in the night person has to realize that if we are eager and hoping to be Servants of Hashem we have to realize it doesn't start when you're standing at the top of the steps it's a journey you start at the first step and the second and the third and when you get to the 15th step when you get to the Pinnacle look down and see how far you've come how much you've grown and realize it was that growth that brought you there Rak the Great guess we would call him the rebba of breast today is a man maybe 90 years old he looks remarkably young but he had a very very very difficult life his wife was not well for many years emotionally his children as well he has many children that are not emotionally well and until recently and again mamish recently he would have he had no elev in his building would have to walk up all the steps and one time somebody commented to him about the many steps that he had to walk up and he said these are more precious to me than gold and fine fine purified gold POS is gatria 87 andak told him there are 880 7 steps that I walk up every day and those 87 steps bring me to my door have such to the steps of my building because the steps of my building are that which brings me to my home to my mik to my place of heavenly Abode my own personal place we have to look as steps not at as things that are obstacles not as the hindrances of our life but they are the vehicle that allows us to continue to grow and that is the story of the every one of the steps that we've gone through each one is a stepping stone to get to another height another level to get to where we need to go to get to where we need to become until next time zag isant
