so we have here the rabbit so kinder
this is a very very very special safer
because it's the Seekers that they'll
ever spoke to give us a sham to the
children and so I'll tell you like this
before we ever get started
Rob saadia gaon says that there are 620
letters on the two tablets with the Ten
Commandments and that represents the
fact that the Ten Commandments although
they're only ten really contained within
them all 613 commandments of data I saw
of the Bible plus the seven rabbinical
Commandments which is the total 620 620
ladders on the two tablets to represent
613 mitzvot is plus the seven rabbinical
Commandments so the whole theta is
represented just in the Ten Commandments
but really you could condense it even
further the whole Ten Commandments is
really summed up in the first two
Commandments because as we know all
positive Commandments are really
conveyed through I'm the Lord you got it
took you out of Egypt and all negative
prohibitions are all conveyed through
don't have any other guides before me so
really the whole Torah is summed up in
the first two Commandments we're really
you could condense it even further
because the first two Commandments are
summed up in the first commandment I'm
the Lord your God that really says it
all but really you could condense it
even further that the first commandment
is really summed up in the first word a
90 I meaning the realize the the
committee Hashem the true absolute
existence and that sums up the whole
Tyra but really the truth is you could
condense it even further and that not
only are all the 620 command
Commandments 613 biblical and seven
rabbinical summed up in 620 letters of
the Ten
and not only are the 10 commandments
summed up in the first two Commandments
I'm the Lord you got there shall be no
other gods and not only the first two
Commandments summed up in the first
commandment I'm the Lord you got and not
only is the first command I'm the Lord
you got summed up in the first word I
anarchy but the first word on IKEA is
summed up in the first letter Aleph
which means one which is Hashem who's
one and that ever says that comets Aleph
aw that every little child learns when
they first start to learn a LOF base is
the Comets Aleph are of an IP within
which is the NA key of the van a key
similar characteristic amazement rahim
within which is the is the first two
Commandments within which are the all
the Ten Commandments within which are
all 620 Commandments within which are
all of the halacha x' and everything
that will ever be revealed for as long
as Taylor
Chabal path becomes infinitely unpacked
and revealed and it's all right there in
the Komets olive of an IV the point is
that when we teach things to children
we're not leaving anything out we're
condensing there's a difference there's
a big difference sometimes and you don't
have enough time to convey something or
you're speaking to an audience who's not
well versed enough in the area so you
just pick one thing to say and you skip
other things that's not what we do when
we teach children when we teach children
we're teaching them everything just in a
very condensed format and a tiny little
Nakula or point that contains the entire
amis and and you really see that in the
style the way that ever spoke to the
children the debbye is giving over the
essence of toyota and see this in a very
simplified form but it's not transfer
shalom that it's lacking anything it's
not any nothing was taken out to the
contrary everything's there it's all
it's all contained
within the simple words now specifically
the style of the Seekers should serve as
a sham I just want to speak a little bit
about that those who are familiar with
the rebus serous especially from Lakota
Cephas which is probably how most people
learn sip as the the edited surface
you're familiar with the fact that the
style is very very much shock love
otário shock limit are you normally we
think of in terms of of Gemara
question-and-answer refutation proof you
know back-and-forth honing a point until
we come to a conclusion and see this
Chabad was always in that style of
learning in Yanam of Panem you saw
Toyota in the style of niggly the theta
meaning using the Talmudic dialectic of
back-and-forth in order to teach
spiritual concepts and the nabis style
is really that way I mean there's a lot
of back and forth back and forth back
and forth and you know some sick is like
a Rashi citta you could have 2030
shila's before we even start to clarify
things right and the question-and-answer
the back and forth format is really
inherent to the whole style of the
seeker yet when we learn these these
seekers when the way that that ever
spoke to children you don't really have
that you don't really have the back and
forth the question the answer the
refutation what you what you have
instead is just straight just straight
whatever said akin for state machine
kunsan kids don't understand tricks they
don't understand now that's why also
children don't understand sarcasm should
never be sarcastic with children they
don't get that they take everything
straight and therefore you deliver
everything to them straight so you see
the style of these sickos it's very
straight so to a certain degree for us
adults who are used to look with their
sickness it might seem at first kind of
like I don't want to say the word boring
but I'll say it let's just say
like it's not challenging you know
there's not that intellectual discovery
right that process of exploring the idea
and in turning over another stone in
another stone
it doesn't have that but instead what it
is and you have to if you change your
expectations then these seekers are very
very very your smock and exciting and
satisfying and fulfilling it's it's not
about the back and forth it's about the
straight delivery that I was taking a
point and he's delivering it to you in a
very straight simple path where you can
really get the point and absorb it well
for yourself okay so let's take a look
here a sigh huh which was actually
delivered Olive - Hey - Thomas Kaufman
Alif which is on page 42 of their
evidence a kinder from volume hey which
is BAM it better and volume okay Lucas
Norrish an officious the copper snake we
will read it Nitish and we'll translate
in hind cepacia
that that Celt as in them last in your
when hidden zine given in mid bar in
this week's parsha mean impartial hook
us it tells that in the last year that
the jews were in the wilderness a there
is a designing orangutan in Eretz Israel
before they entered the land of Israel
as an in Eden Ashtaroth Givaudan Jews
were punished for a net gain given
China's Aachen for some undesirable
things and that ever doesn't mention
what the undesirable things are because
why elaborate it's undesirable right
that itself is a it's a lesson when
they're a be should hotkey hasten may
shinobi new so machina knowledge so
Hashem commanded maysha to make a snake
verse may Shahada marked from Cooper
which measure made from copper from
nutritious Unger's of Eden as there of
us vets if I
to them Nakashima fascias the hi better
Levin and he told nation whoever looks
at the snake at the copper snake will
live so anyone who needed healing they
should look at the copper snake and they
will live and the rabbit doesn't
elaborate on any of the other details of
the narrative there okay
Xan indicas Al Arabiya Brock in Russia
of the empathic Nevada so our sages who
Rashi brings in his commentary on this
verse explain see then can there not
tighten other maken labin can this snake
really kill or enliven this copper snake
has any power to do anything nor but
rather then you didn't cooking it off to
maybe ten when Jews would look up
because the snake was on a pole it was
high so when they would look up they
would be looking up to heaven
Hans anima Shabet their hearts so their
father in Himmel and they would
subjugate their heart to their father in
heaven does HUD say I scalp that healed
them
so it wasn't the snake it was the snake
was to get their attention to look up
and when they would look up they would
think of a sham and they would be healed
thus hast this means need cooking dick
off the net given China's a converse
hidden Hobbiton irrespective of the
undesirable things that the Jews did
when trotzdem was a Hubbins if not given
in in mid bar or not near the Rhine in
Eretz Israel and even though they were
still in the wilderness and not yet in
Eretz Israel okay so two negative things
they did not nice things and they're in
the mid bar they're not yet in their
destination in the Holy Land for that's
vague and nevertheless even though they
had those two negative things about
their situation nevertheless Bashar's
eaten haben a roof Kirkuk
a Burstyn as soon as the Jews looked up
to a sham on get bettin Hill phone even
and ask request help from above hadass
like a verdict that immediately worked
as by Eden's Oh sign the high that the
Jew would live the haben becoming a mass
in Latin from Abington they received
true life from Hashem when signing give
Libyan Leben God in past us and they
remained alive in the most literal sense
is a Hobbs a forgiving to the extent
that then they merited as in a courts
excited Rome in just a little time
afterwards nor condemn zelban you're in
that same year
Zions a orangutan in an air attack a
dish they entered the Holy Land vas Z is
Guevara Arusha far together lead off a
Beck which is an eternal inheritance for
every Jew it's interesting by the way
why is it necessary to mention the Eretz
Israel is a yarosh afar yet the reading
of a Beck and in eternal inheritance for
every Jew is it important to shop here
it could be that I'm missing something
it's very possible I'm missing something
but I don't think it's important for
adhering that when there's an
opportunity for him oh you don't miss
out on it there's a minor from the
rabbit about an advertisement that was
made for the Seder and they put a cup of
wine so the rabbits have put four cups
to show the four cups that visual of
four cups is not actually something you
would see it to say they're right
because you don't have filled them all
for at the same time you do one after
the other so you really only have at the
Seder you don't have one cup at a time
that would be full but the rebus point
was that when you have an opportunity to
be mechanical people about something you
don't lose that opportunity so even
though technically you could have a
picture of matzah and wine and that
would convey the idea of say there but
if you have an opportunity to teach that
concept of for car
by visually representing four cups so
don't lose that opportunity go ahead and
teach it the same thing is if you
mention exes at all maybe it's not so
important that shot here but if it's an
opportunity to remind the children that
Eretz Israel is an eternal inheritance
for every single Jew so of course we're
gonna mention it okay
all right so basically this part of the
see huh
and you see here basically they broke it
up this way that you know here yeah well
that's over here so this part of the
cipa is really the the parsha part of
the seeker and whereas you know in a
grownup seeker you might have six seven
eight pages of back and forth and then
at the very end you might have the hero
you know the the director of the
teaching so here we have you know this
much on the partial and then the hero
begins the directive begins here and
continues until the end okay so it's
very light on the expository teaching
and very heavy on the didactic teaching
the instruction the hero Lamoille what
you should do what you should take from
this alright let's let's continue inside
there far hot men ah hero for ya they're
eating therefore based on this story we
have a teaching and instruction for
every single Jew a fellow for Yiddish a
kinder was cannon learnin on fashion
himesh mid parish Russia even for little
children who all they can learn at this
point is kamesh Russia as far as if dog
fauna hidden it is required from a Jew
as need coke indica flossman offensive
in there Finn's Danish from gallows
irrespective of the fact that we are in
the darkness of gallows amir haben it
delete the Chi
from them they stomach notion delete the
kite phone Beshear said que no and we
don't have the light of the base
immigration the light of mushiya okay so
we're in a difficult situation we're in
the darkness of Gullah so we don't what
does that mean we don't have the light
of mushiya we don't have the light of
the base ohmic dish from that's vegan
nevertheless darkman didn't they maybe
shouldn't MIT simcha leaded acai don't
lift the kite we have to serve Hashem
with joy and vitality and brightness how
would you say to a child we have to
serve a sham and with with excitement
okay
so this is sort of a parallel to the
situation in other words it's a very
very very basic parallel what's the
story of not flesh enough patience we're
not getting into knowledge we're not
getting is an officious basic story is
the Jews were not yet in Eretz as well
they were still in the mid bar they had
just done some undesirable things okay
so the situation was a negative
situation nevertheless that did not
prevent them from being able to look up
ask em for help and immediately getting
that help
so therefore what's the thing that we
need to take from this that if we're in
a situation that's negative if we're and
we are we're in a situation of Gullah
s-- where we don't have the light of
machine we don't have the light of the
basis of english but we should know that
even though we're in a difficult
situation that is not going to prevent
us from being able to look up and say
how shanem help us and immediately being
able to be helped by a sham or the way
that ever says it here is even skips
that whole part of asking a sham and
just goes to the bottom line which is we
can serve a sham with simcha lab at the
chiton lift the kite right so basically
the formula the the parallel is the
hidden in this week's partially eden
were in a difficult situation but that
didn't stop them
okay so else we might be in a difficult
situation but that doesn't stop us it's
a very very very simple parallel and a
very simple Nakota but such a powerful
new color I mean think about how many
adults would pay a coach would pay an
inspirational speaker you know how much
money they would pay to be able to get
that message of you know what we all
have obstacles we all have difficulties
but you know
but nothing can stop you from doing what
you need to do beautiful and that's the
message that was given okay now we're
gonna do a little bit of a it's
interesting the questions generally in
there evidence of candidate circles are
not shot questions like hmm I wonder how
that works it's not like that
the questions are more like questions in
the head off part of the seeker so it's
more like you might wonder if the head
ah really is serious
and that's the kind of question we're
gonna have right here okay can they
neither skinned on a mole a filo an
alternate dragon a Jewish child and
sometimes even an adult could ask we can
mend in them a beast in mitt simcha on
Hayase when is nor in there Finn's
Danish mandalas how can we serve a Shem
with with vitality with with joy and
vitality even though we're still in the
darkness of galas okay so now here's the
that's a question yeah it's not a
question I'm shot in the story and the
Commish it's a question about the hero
but really can we really do it and it's
not like a deep question it's not like a
like it's not even like like a specific
challenge to the logic of the hero it's
more like can how are we sure can we
really do it and what's the answer the
answer is such a simple straight shot
answer
Landon's d-theta in hind thickest editor
so the theta and this week's partial
teaches us as a feel of and me is now in
mid but even when you're still in the
wilderness no okay them a gator I net
Cicero before you went into Ed's Israel
the shots are better men cooked out of
some a Beeston but if you look up to a
sham can sign with high you can live
means Oba coming from a mission a mess
in Levin you can receive from a sham
real-life that's it so the hero was
nevertheless even though your might you
might be in the darkness of godless you
can still connect to a shaman servation
with with the full joy and excitement
the question was really can we really do
it yes you can really do it very simple
very very very simple yes you could
really are you sure yes we're sure
that's what the parsha teaches us that
we could do it okay all right
and then the Hammers at home when
dissolve bazaar in owns it site so just
like it is in the parshat we're doing
the parallel again this is the second
time we're doing the parallel between
the parsha and our times when the Zell
Bazaar cannons at sight so the same
thing in our times then mitigate
Finian's in Aachen garlis even though
we're still in galas a minute da Vernon
bettin when Manan vivant mashiac now and
we are praying and were and we're asking
and were demanding we want mashiac now
why are we demanding well mushiya cos
nothing equipment Christmas yet still
hasn't come so obviously we're still
demanding and even though we're in a
situation where we want machined at
every point that once want in English
you know when you say that in in Russian
Turkish rates him which means we want
but it doesn't have its rots in which is
desire want in English means to be
lacking something something's lacking so
as long as we want mushiya we're still
lacking mushiya so we're still in a
difficult situation
foon - beggin nevertheless can buy
ensign with high we can still have life
which means lemon myth I'll and yon
finita sky - and Taylor who knits us to
live that means to have vitality and
excitement and all the matters of
Judaism and Toyota and mitzvahs was a
sign in Calle Nevada Fiorina which are
our life and the length of our days when
the highest our zip or aesthetic in in
pocket peg look and Leben and that
excitement has to come out in our
day-to-day life Murphy Hall full of
alcohol last say say rabbit here is
incorporating one of the twelve sukham
Kiko - Vallecano may be fearful of
Colossae say so what does it mean to
have this highest that it comes out in
our day-to-day life which means in our
mouth and our heart which is thought
glass I see to do it which is action all
three devotion in MA
keyboard or mice f3 lavona fish from
Tanya see the hole tanya is in this
little circle okay
siphon Ageha to zero both in regards to
one's work that he has to do on himself
on side to varrock indoors elbow off
under it and also to accomplish the same
with others very fundamental concept and
all that ever citizen and the children
that whatever you've got you got to give
it away that's the way you really have
it is by giving it away to others okay
Oh Misha yeah that advice tough as
detailed over said hot becoming be
Arusha is the highest as act buyer and
when every Jew shows that the trader
that he inherited is the most precious
thing to him by the way where is this
where is this coming from
doesn't say that and we hadn't said we
didn't say it so far it's not in this in
this city but again you never miss an
opportunity to hammer home a main point
just like we hammered home that idea
when you mention air it Cicero you
mentioned that it's a yarosh afore every
single Jew forever when you mentioned
trader Toyota is a you dosha for every
single Jew and it should be that that
the most precious thing in fact when
they remember first and rolled out the
twelve silken an alpha - hey dish ER
tough Shin lawmen valve so the first six
soaking worth from that for Brennan and
Lattimer was the second group of six
broken when the rebus said Pettit
sevillana the first of the the sodium
nervously was Taylor civil oh no mean it
means that a child should know just like
he has toys and dolls and things that he
finds precious so you should know that
Taylor is precious if the tire kitefin
theta theta is precious child knows what
precious is yes things if you left his
dolly in the car and you went into the
into the into the store he doesn't want
to leave his dolly wants to go back and
get the dolly or maybe even more you
left the dolly in the store and you got
in the car you're gonna have to go back
to the store to get the dolly right okay
let's continue here when paid up by
lights I'm Paul Pegg looking Leben bees
as I'm gonne celeb and fits a light do
inviting fun Tyra and Tyra illuminates
his entire day to day life until his
whole life is conducted according to the
teachings of Toyota

should be complete

machine who come ooon empty race alley
hidden from the mid buffoon galas and
take us all out of the wilderness called
galas on fiat z to unser helical ond and
lead them all to their holy land edits a
shared glamour tommy Danish a mother
kept abominations are shown about a
flesh Shana the land on which Hashem
eyes are from the beginning of the year
to the end of the year on the land is
bunts and the land will be complete
lousy fears if roof in a Yiddish in - in
gansan because the land will conduct
itself completely a Jewish way wow
that's some deep social commentary for
children obviously the children are not
aware of what the rabbit is commenting
on that else as well needs to be a place
that's not just a Jewish land but the
behavior of the people in the land has
to be Jewish which means al Peter but I
was putting that in there planting the
seeds for these for these ideas like all
these core ideas are just sprinkle along
the way okay woman gateman shifts at K
nodes so they do hola meet this force
Lima and we go with Michele said que no
to the true and complete redemption and
that is our circle walker show so let's
wrap it up basic concept here basic
concept is this week's parsha the Jews
had some problems they did some not nice
things I'm not sure what the night not
nice things were it's not important and
they got into some they had some
problems I think they weren't feeling
well because they needed to be healed
okay now that that's so important the
point is I shouldn't old make sure you
make a snake and everyone will look at
it and they'll feel better well how is
the snakes was to help oh it's because
when you look up you think of a sham and
then you're okay Wow so what does that
mean it means that even though they were
in a difficult situation as soon as they
look
- a sham they were okay and what does
that mean for us that means that even
though we're in a difficult situation
we're in Gullah sandwi we don't have the
light of the basem ignition the light of
my shift but as soon as we think of a
shaman we want to connect to a shop
we're gonna be able to connect this
young completely with simcha and labid
the kite flick the kite and even though
you could ask is it really so could we
really do it yes this week's pageant
teaches us you can really do it and you
can live completely in accordance with
theta and you can affect everyone around
you to live that way - that's it that's
our CFO okay that was really beautiful
