have with
us welcome an
[Music]
honor and we're going to be speaking
about the importance of Torah but before
we do that forget a little bit
background about the rabbi and the great
work you're involved with I born in
Israel and
land and the
major was
theom but you know my grandfather was
very big famous RAB
was he was one of the leader of the
Iraqi
Community was kid when he passed away he
was Big Mo and everybody know him you
have a
in in Gula and I I raised there and I
was connected to a lot of ranim there
not of course but all rim
and was
a one of the my my one my relative the
big Rabbi
shom
is and he
become of Israel
and is my father cousin
cousin by the way he sent me to America
I didn't think about that he told me go
to America teach because Israel don't
need
you isra in America they need so I went
to
America and he came here so I was
learning in but I was going to classes
once a week so I was connected to him
to to
this I know a lot
of and this the rabis I I know learn
from them lot of things came to
America and he have the community of to
again he have the community in Queens so
he brought me up to organize the
community we start the community was
before I came but I came so that time
there was the major people was Israeli
people not American not bukar Israeli
people but was seminars seminar they
sent to the
SCH we teach there we start the cles
that time I speak about 90
92 every night 2 hours wow from that
time to today we didn't stop every night
two hours starting a lot of people learn
by me not teaching lot of rabbis was
there pass by in Israel and America and
they we do in the morning and the
nights and it's all whole story you know
and now is little Chang lot of the
Israeli move back to Israel and to
different places and we stay now now in
the present time
this we have classes we
have always learning always in morning
they have classes till 11 1130 in the
nights in the
afternoon the point is I told him every
time our sh is not for daving daving
have a lot of places to D the purpose of
sh is tor
if you have a Les not point the point is
learning this is the point this is the
effort that make because you have a lot
of come now every block have more
than so we don't need we don't need
another SCH we need place of T to learn
to and to teach T and to educate the
kids because this is the next Generation
to to help them to educate the parents
have the to learn but the K we see lot
of parents that was St by us and the
kids become because this this the
purpose 100% to go to every so
often and before the she starts after
the she ends there's always a Shear in a
class that the rabbi gives early
late so we're gonna be speaking about
that topic the importance of learning
Tora what is the importance of learning
speaks about
reasy so the said first as we know
famous adultery and kill people murder
[Music]
and adultery adultery adultery
and so the continue second mdash
for nothing
what's I don't hate my table because
nothing re
what's non reason nobody crazy guy to
not hate somebody with not reason
meaning it's not enough reason to hate
him you have reason but it's not really
reason this
called to crazy guy stupid guy hate him
why because he have different shirt I
have white you have blue I don't like
him it's not it's not it's crazy so mean
there is a reason he told me something
he talk me something but it's not you
know the says that sometime make some
deal spoke with deal to make a deal so
yes
don't he promised to buy and didn't buy
he didn't pay didn't what mean promise
to buy
so have be with him so the mean of that
you not allow to have to have Angry some
provision Tora if the Tora don't allow
to be angry with him you don't allow to
be it's not emotional that you feel so
this is so this is and
unfortunately unfortunately till today
we have this problem that's but let's go
to the first mdash so the Torah said
three reason this
is we come to
ask why the world destroy
says what
is nobody explain why did destroy first
one so the
conclude explain that they don't respect
the learning of T so the question coming
what said
clearly and now it's a different reason
so what do you mean of that what how can
how imagine the says as M Power there
was some King you have you know King you
have a
ministers and he that King has he L
Music he was some violent player was
very professional and everybody he come
to the
king he feel good close to the king and
the people in the community and the in
the country decide to make Revolution
against the king
to kill him and to take the place and
they push that guy also to come with
him and in the end you know say the
endat him and they C they caught him so
now all the people was
hanging dead sent to dead to sent of
dead but that boy the king had a problem
why he like because he's a violent for
him in
no she said you know what I put in the
jail you be in the jail day and the time
you come to my house to to play that you
this support okay this past few years
one
day he had accident someplace and he
lost his hand and he couldn't play more
the day they couldn't play the king turn
H you why because I lost my hand no you
already need to die but because you make
the singing I live you in life this the
answer
Le it's it's putting theide there is a
music of Tor then then then don't do
nothing so
this if you Lear even there is lot of
damage Israel you know what happened
Israel so what the solution is
and Lear up that
even
do highest they can do but if there is T
don't look at that wow powerful again
the music of T making so this is power
of the Torah very good amazing so that's
the importance of the Torah and the
power of the Torah now there's so many
you know person now hears this says you
know okay I got to start learning Tor of
course
we're supposed to learn every single day
and every single night but there's so
much Tora whether it's the whether it's
there so many whether it's m character
development to become a better person
what should one learn okay I tell
you usually people
like I tell you what the meaning of that
the meaning of that that first thing we
need to know that the Torah is not
Hebrew it's not BK not not English Tor
is own language language of
Tor to understand Tor even you want to
the simple
bookself or Ben any book you learn is
different language that you know even
the people rais in Israel they speaks
Hebrew it's not Hebrew to Tor it's
different
language so to understand something you
need to learn the language of the Torah
where learn the language of Tor by the
the the first thing the other side it's
it's not can spend all the time because
you know people start to to keep MIT
they need to learn it's not Wi-Fi can
get get from my my my okay I keep
Shabbat I Tak myself to keep Shabbat so
what how to keep Shabbat I take to to be
a dentist I really want to be dentist
you need to learn few years Tor is not
less than that to understand how to keep
to you to learn it without learning Tora
you can't keep T it's not come forever
some people make 5 years you feel Rabbi
why because keep five years who teach
you you know how to keep T you know how
to keep Shabbat the M says in in the
troduction
of says if you don't surely you don't
keep shabat surely so we have two things
we have time to spend by learn to learn
the language of the Tor the other
side but the problem something people
feel bored with that so we need the to
exciting to give excit questions
because was saying that if somebody
learn to deeply is not pleasure in the
world like that 100% true not pleasure
in the world like that but you're
learning like not out is not don't feel
that but
the like so some
people but if there is a story of shom
one father came to him and told him
Rabbi my kid don't want to learn in sh
you want to go out you Rel
family now you can leave the room tell
the father I want to talk to him
alone so the rabbi take seat with him
half an hour and
and everything is good so talk with him
what happened the didn't talk he start
to learn but he going to his level he
explained thear in his level the boy was
so happy because nobody the rabbi give
the classes out everybody the same it's
not everybody the same everybody's D
head so we need to go to his the went to
his level level and explain to be
exciting for this is the problem but so
so now there is classes for everybody of
course there is
she bring make lot of classes like but
this is as you know it's not it's not
it's only for for good for women maybe
but men need to sit and learn open
learn and of course very important this
is important because is there is a oil
for the car without oil the car you need
that oil theg the oil to move but you
need oil only you need the car need the
wheels you need Tora but the oil is the
the so this is very important the and
the learn the and you even you don't
remember
learning learning I don't remember you
learn don't remember the word but you
connect I heard once that I think it was
a he said that even if you learn and you
don't remember at least one in one ear
out the other but it give you brainwash
it clean your brain a little bit change
you 100% changes as you see the the
experience is people come to learn every
day Tor as we know the T ask you to
learn every day no one a week in Shabbat
from the RAB it's not enough learn T is
change you change your your famili your
kids everybody change 100% there's a
story of salant they asked him I only
have 10 or 20 30 minutes to learn what
should he learn so the the rabbi told
him learn
mus what happened he said he'll learn
he'll see has more than 30 minutes to
learn something something similar to
that somebody came to the rabbi RAB ask
you learning Tora I haven't got time a
busy man so s your C calendar you see
this you don't know to WR calendar you
know your calendar open new page this
from this tor afterwards feel it no you
feel it after T we start with Tor then
feel I have somebody work with us see
have a recorder in the phone he was
businessman if you call me the due time
you not answer I call you back but from
this hour to this hour I never answer
the phone because I'm learning wow it's
Rec I learning the world now
learning you have to set a time for
learning T this is going to be a
question we go up to sh wow very very
powerful
wow you gave us so much on this topic uh
you know some people are they're
learning but sometimes they might not
feel the Gish the excitement of it if
they're any advice that the r could give
they need to find what they like they
like to come to come to they need to
find what the heart push him to do what
the heart desires 100% yes and when he
feel that he'll be happy 100% happy we
have me custom of a final message for uh
the r to give over okay the final
message I tell you today our generation
our time now is
the very hard time in Israel and all the
world yeah so it's from hasem it's not
in coming alone hasem control the world
so hasem talk with us what He tell us we
didn't me to find out what hasem want
for us
now I think first thing the
two is is like we say what everybody
need to think twice I tell a story
I heard recently stories in Israel
so one Nur call somebody there is a
commun called zaka zaka is the people
care of the dead people there is
somebody passed away they hav got family
nobody you need to BU them so okay I
happy to do it but in the Israel rule
you need to find if you some you have
some relative in in the not you need ask
him to Priss can bu somebody
so the told yes there is a name is he
have a son this is his name telephone
number but he never came to visit him he
never connected okay I need to call the
son to ask him if he if he agree to come
to I he call his son the son say excuse
me I haven't got father it's not my
father what do you want for me leave me
alone it's not my father you make
mistake shut the phone
up the guy understand he's reading his
father IGN but his father he call him
[Music]
back I told you don't don't me I call
the police you call me back I don't want
you that guy didn't I can't bury him
without that a Jewish man die without
bury how could be he come back he
didn't he start to cry in the phone do
me a favor don't ask him nothing for you
only I give you a send email sign on it
why B I I want to B him
and not the the boy person start to cry
in the phone
right so he didn't shut the phone he
wait for okay send me the email I
sign okay he send me sign thank you
thank you and he closed the
phone after a few hours yeah had phone
call from that guy what time the
barrier not his father his father's
father I want to come w and he
came after he so he didn't ask him
question he came so they make 10 people
be him after what happened here what
happened he said him that's in the story
he told him 32 years
ago I was fighting with my
father and I from that day I didn't talk
with him no connection at all
disconnected when you call me I said I
don't know I don't have connect my wife
tell me why I start to think you crying
to bury somebody you never know you
never know you never met only to BU him
you crying for that I see it's my father
I don't care so my wife told me what
happened that you don't connect with
father I start to remember he's was
something
small for that something small he lost
32 years connection with father he lost
his father the father his kids no
grandchildren nothing he haven't got
father to K the to their grandfather
why this we need to
connect this is the
story and learning more everybody need
to have is not it's obligation
of this way we got the
solution be now people ask for the war
will stop okay what St we ask from Final
you
know is
