in regards to the question of what
happens when uh you have a uh perhaps a
religious couple uh so they're doing at
least what they believe is what AEM says
they should do they keep Shabbat they
keep kosher and so on
but there's no schom one of them whether
it be the husband or the wife is uh
verbally emotionally
abusive uh and um has no interest
whatsoever in
changing uh so whether it's the wife or
the husband is uh not necessarily as
relevant as the fact as what we need to
understand what it
means when a comes before it comes down
to from sh a person needs to understand
that
that is incomplete it's a partial why
because the other half of that n is
their spouse and whoever the person
chooses to be their spouse is going to
be the completion of that that they're
going to be with eternally eternally
which means that every single time that
they hurt that Nish they're in essence
hurting themselves they're damaging
their own
this is why the
r he says that a
husband
must uh love his wife as much as he
loves himself but honor her even more
than himself love as much as himself but
honor her even more than
himself giving cavod to the your wife is
even more important than even loving her
why because without cavod there's no
relationship even more so on the
opposite side
if a woman does not respect her husband
there's no relationship the husband is
never going to be able to reach his full
potential if his wife is abusive to him
is not honoring him is not helping him
get to his full potential now a woman
needs to understand how you know how
just how important respecting a husband
is now of course we know what our Ten
Commandments are that you know our fifth
commandment is that people must honor
their parents
okay but on the woman's side a woman
once she gets married she's not even
obligated to honor her parents anymore
why all of the honor she has must go to
her husband if there's some left she can
give it to our parents but if not if she
has to choose one between the other she
must honor our husband before her
parents she must honor her husband
before her parents
needless to say she must honor her her
husband regardless of whether her
parents are there or not why he's our
own I'll give you a real story of
something that
happened to real true story that
happened not too long ago maybe a couple
years
ago had someone come to him one
time someone that's a keeps learns all
day decent human being not a
we're not talking about someone that's a
gangster someone that's
keeps relatively new few years into it
you know maybe five six seven years into
it but chose to take the life of being
an but hasn't necessarily worked on
himself and perfected himself yet but
still none of us
are anyway one day he tells him listen
I'm having serious problems I had a uh
you know a daughter born a son born I'm
sorry a son born and they uh the son
hasn't left the hospital it's already
been six months six months that the Boy
hasn't left the hospital we're not able
to circumcise him give him we're not
able to name him we're not able to do
anything
so what do the doctors
say doctors don't know all they know is
that he's sick he's dying they don't
know if he's going to survive the day
they don't know if he's going to survive
the week they don't know
anything so FR asks
what does your uh wife what does your
wife say about how's she dealing with
all of it immediately the someone that
keeps reacted in a very nasty way ah her
she she's lucky I'm even married to her
she uh she's this and she's that he
doesn't say nice things let's just say
that he doesn't say nice things about
her but what should I do he asks
himim surprisingly gives him a response
of a lifetime he says do you want your
son to be healthy he says yeah sure of
course I want my son to be healthy what
kind of question is that's what I'm
coming to you is there a prayer is there
a study session that I can do is there a
anything that I can do to fix it maybe I
could learn the sh maybe I could take on
myself extra mitv maybe this maybe that
he says yeah you can do one thing he
says what he says you have to start
respecting your wife to such an extent
that he completely changes her mind
changes her perception of who you are
because what do you mean he says you
have to buy a present on a regular basis
goes why are you kidding me I make only,
15500 shekels a month being on a goes
you have to buy her something every week
you have to honor her you have to
respect you have to goes where is this
coming what does it have to do with my
son he
says if you want Miracles you need the
you need a
to come down himself nothing else is
going to help your son nothing else can
help not the doctors not the lawyers not
the accountants not the bble not the
nothing only Hashem himself can save
your son because your son right now is
in Dire Straits and right now you have
to understand that we learn in our T
that when hem decided that he's going to
give the tah to on Mount sa theim came
to hm and said hem you cannot come down
to the the cannot come down to mount
saai because all of am they've been
slaves they've been in Egypt for 210
years slaves for 116 years they've been
tortured they've been beat they've been
you know what's happened to them many of
them are meaning that they have
deformities they're missing arms missing
eyes they're blind they're deaf they're
broken
backs and the cannot come down to a
place of
imperfection hasem said no problem let's
make them perfect
and just like that the one that was
blind was able to see the one that was
deaf was able to hear the one that was
crippled was able to walk Hashem
literally was the Healer
live live and well and actually healed
everyone in order for the to come down
to a place of perfection and there's a
mish that we learned from that story
which
says when a is and is a husband and a
wife have a merit of the comes down
between them so ra explains to him he
because you want Miracles the only way
you can have Miracles is if the comes
the only way the can come is
if if if the husband and the wife
have the only way they have schite is if
you start you the husband starts you the
one that thinks this and thinks that you
start and if it's the wife listening to
this then you start don't wait for the
other one to start if each one of us
starts
ourselves can come but if we keep
waiting for the other person to do it
the will be gone forever so the person
said listen I don't know much but I know
enough to know that I should listen to
he knows a lot
of and you have to have he did what he
said
and 30 days on the spot 30 days later he
runs through excited as can be as if M
just came down from Mount sa he said
what happened everything okay he says
you're never gonna believe it my son was
just released with perfect bill of
health from the hospital the doctors
asked me why is he even here the new new
doctor came in he say why is your your
son here he's perfectly healthy take him
home already
when a person understands that the does
not come to a home with no SCH that
means there's no there's no the money
there's no good for the kids there's
nothing good in the world happens to a
place where there's no nothing good so
if a person wants the to come they must
start with schom how do you start with
schom start by looking in the mirror and
fix the person you you see this helps
those that are listening and those that
are not listening and you spread this m
message to all of to understand that our
spouses are ourselves it's the other
half of our own when we hurt them we
hurt ourselves we hurt ourselves we hurt
our connection with and nothing good can
come out of that
