Well [Hebrew word] yekarim hope you had an amazing Purim, BeEzrat HaShem, tomorrow
is Shabbat, Holy Shabbat and I wanted to give a
[..] Chidush on the Megillat Ester it's one of the best Musar books I have ever read, things that
We can learn and apply to our life and today we're gonna learn from the Torah, we're gonna learn from the Megillah how
to deal with evil people.
Because unfortunately in today's world sometimes we encounter evil wicked people and then the Torah tells us how to deal with them
How do we know how to deal with them? Exactly how HaShem deals with them, we have to learn everything from HaShem.
So now in Megillat Ester, after the story breaks and at the second dinner, Ester
exposes Haman being the wicked man that he is, saying that he is the one that is trying to kill me
he is the one that is trying to kill and destroy my people,
Haman is left dumbfounded.
He trembles in terror before the king and the queen and for the first time in the entire Megillah, we find Haman
without anything to say, without any way to defend himself
Because for the first time in his life he has no way to defend himself, had he been with Ester
or the the king Achashverosh
alone
he would be able to defend himself but since both of them
were in that dinner there was no way he could defend himself because if he tells
Ester, Listen I.... you know.... i didn't know you were jewish
if I would know you were Jewish then I wouldn't have killed all of them. he couldn't use that argument
because then, he..you know, he just told Achashverosh
that the Jewish people are so evil they have to be extinct. They are
so wicked, so against him, that ... you have to destroy them, so how
could you say what?! [...] she is going against what you told me
[...] willing to pay three hundred and eighty four million dollars in today's money
Is what he paid [....] in order to do this, so you can't speak out of both sides of your mouth and
That's usually the acts of the evil people the evil people usually tell you one thing they
do something else or they tell both sides things they want to hear
and in reality just go with the winning horse
because their.. the only side they care about is their own
so here HaShem put
Haman the rasha in a situation where he can't get himself out of this hole and
this is something that in wich we actually see how HaShem Himself has dealt with evil people in the past how
far past we go back to creation
go back to the creation and we have Adam and Chava
unfortunately make the first sin of mankind and eat from the tree of knowledge
after they eat from the tree of knowledge
.... HaShem comes to them and He says, you know, what happened? what happened over ..how did you make this sin?
so adam says the woman you gave to me
she gave me of the tree and I ate meaning it is not at our fault.. go go you..
don't go blame ours, she's.. she's the woman that you...you are the one that gave me this woman
and she's the one that made me sin, a little bit of a [hebreeuws] a little bit of ungratefulness here from Adam [hebreeuws]
Chazal said that when [hebreeuws] before HaSimonBarYoChai
died Adam [hebreeuws] came to him in his dream and he said: no one knows the real sin that I made
except you
so please when you come to Gan Eden do not embarrass me and tell everyone my sin because until now
everyone thinks I sinned because of the tree of knowledge but in reality they
don't know the real sin and the real story of what happened
maybe this is the sinned ungratefulness [hebreeuws] said
HaShem hates ungratefulness, this could potentially be the sin but this is just my personal
take on it, not necessarily what Chazal says Chazal said it's ungratefulness but I don't know if this is necessarily the sin
well back to the story
Adam [hebreeuws]
blames it on the woman
HaShem says to the woman:
what is this that you have done? and the woman says meaning [hebreeuws] the serpent you know the snake
He deceived me so I ate it is not my
fault it's the snake's fault he is the one that fooled me and said: look
you are touching the tree and HaShem is not killing you, in reality he fooled her
he mean.. twisted her words
you know.. and that is actually part of her own fault because she said she added words to what HaShem said and HaShem said
do not eat from the tree, she said:
"do not touch and do not eat from the tree" so as soon as he heard that she made a mistake, they.. the serpent, knew
that she made a mistake, he pushed her on a tree, she touched the trees, you see! you are
alive, HaShem did not kill you, so if you could touch it then that means you can eat it, so he fooled her
so she's saying to HaShem: listen he deceived me so I ate and
then the interesting part
Verse 14 chapter 3 in Sefer Bereshit and HaShem GOD
said to the serpent: because you have done this a curse are you
beyond all the cattle and beyond all beast of the field upon your belly shall you go and dust shalt you eat all the days
of your life and
on and on and on with the curse of what He gives to the serpent, we learned from here
[hebreeuws]
Arur [ערור] by the way, is the worst possible curse you can get in the entire Torah
we go to parashat [hebreeuws]
Later on this year we're gonna see that
certain sins the mankind can make in their called arur [ערור], was not a
place you want to mess with and the snake, the serpent, gets the worst possible curse but that's not the point
we all knew this, we all have read Sefer Bereshit, what's the Chidush?
the Chidush here is: if you noticed he asked Adam what did you do?
Adam answered: he asked Chava Eve
what did you do? she said what she did she said she blamed the snake
but what with a snake with a serpent
he didn't ask nothing he just immediately said: [ערור אתה] He said you are cursed!
didn't even give him a chance to speak, why didn't
HaShem give him a chance to speak
because it says I created him as evil and his job is evil and if I ask him, why
did you do what you did, he will actually have an excuse even though he knows what he did is wrong?
he brought death to the world and to give him an excuse and give him a way to get out of it
it's not justice so He didn't even give him an opportunity to speak and punish him immediately
originally the serpent was supposed to be the king of all the animals he was beautiful as the most beautiful creation..
creature other than mankind, other than Adam [hebreeuws]
he was actually able to have arms and legs and walked like.. like a like a human being
but obviously now we see something very different, the point being here is that HaShem knew His creation and
HaShem was not going to be fooled, the same thing if HaShem was not gonna let Adam [hebreeus]
be fool
the king [hebreeuws] even though [hebreeuws] was wicked he still
was not allowed to do certain things that HaShem would not let him do
He wouldn't let him fool
anyone, and that's why He put him in a situation in a hole that he can't get him self out of
this is something that we have to learn from a lot of [hebreeuws] because sometimes we have people in our life that are
energy drainers that are people to just suck our energy dry and they're full of evil and wickedness and we have to stay
away from them and the best way to stay away from somebody like that is to completely shut them out, don't answer phone calls
don't answer emails, don't answer anything and little by little
you will see how
the masks they have put on, the mr. Nice guy that they look like, the mrs. Nice guy that did did [hebreeuws]
that she looks like a Tzadikka or that Tzadik that looks like it Tzadik but obviously you saw some things wrong here because,
that is the point of shutting them out in the first place, you don't just shut people out for no reason somebody
did something and it's completely off character, one day they are saying they are the biggest Tzadik in the world and the next day
you are seeing the guys
cheating people in business and making it...ah..you know
putting a kosher sign on it, one day you are seeing a woman saying she is Tzadikka
the next thing you know the only thing she does is spread LaShonHara and create a Satan between
people, people like that you have to cut out, you can't fix it, you're
not gonna fix it, your friends not gonna fix it, no one's gonna fix it, why?
because there's.. they have to fix themselves if they want to fix themselves, because even HaShem
was not willing to fix them even HaShem was not willing to fix Haman. Even
HaShem was not willing to fix the serpent, so you think your gonna fix these evil people, no
you have to stay away from them, the best thing to do is to shut them out, how
you shut them out and make them expose themselves!?
by completely disconnecting you'll see they send you more messages and more messages and more phone calls and each time they
become more and more desperate and each time they say more and more things, each time they incriminate themselves
each time they show their true colors and
then each time you get it you realize how much of an amazing
decision you made by listening to the Da'at Torah [דעת תורה] to listening to the opinion of the Torah the
opinion of HaShem Himself and what He
did and that is what our purpose in this world is, is to emulate the middot, the characteristics of HaShem
may HaShem bless you and make you stay away from these people and not bring any of these people into your life
and unfortunately if they ever do... now you know, if they ever do come to your life now you know
how to deal with them as a [hebreeuws] thank you for learning with me and may HaShem continue to bless you [Hebrew: Kul Tuv]
