Montul is a time of reflection. It's a
time for us to re-evaluate where we
stand. The puk says,
"I am for my beloved and my beloved is
for me." If you look at the first letter
of each one of those words, it spells
out al
spelling al symbolizing that is closer
to during the month of alul than he is
during the rest of the year. Meaning
that right now if anyone ever thought
about doing
this would be the time. If anybody ever
wanted to get stronger with learning
Torah, this would be the time. If
anybody want to take on another mitzvah,
become modest, watch their eyes, donate
money, be uh have extra kavana in their
prayer, this would be the time. Why
would this be the time? Because anyone
that ever experienced the nightmare of
having a trial, going to court, knows
that a court case, it doesn't matter
what it is, it's always scary. Even if
it's only for a parking ticket,
everybody that's a normal human being is
scared to lose because he knows that if
he loses this case, then instead of it
being a $25 or $75 fine, it's $500.
Instead of it being, you know, a $100
ticket, it's $1,000 plus you lose your
license. Meaning the trial is scary
always. Everybody's scared to lose a
trial. So the truth is that when a
person goes to trial scared, he's
terrified because something's on the
line. Even if he's right, even if he's
innocent, even if he has a clearcut
case, meaning that all the things could
be planned and you can organize and you
can pay $1,000 an hour and all the stuff
can work out and you think, "No, no, I
got the best lawyer. I have the best
lawyer you can ever have and I have best
money and I have the best brain. and I
have the best case and I'm right and I
have proofs and I have emails and I have
this and I have that and Hashem decides
you're losing. Why I decide I decide the
show now a person has a trial every year
Jew or non-Jew
is for everyone by the way
is a trial for every single species on
earth that have in them have a trial.
Even the dead that have left 300 years
ago have a trial. Some could actually be
in Gan Eden right now, but they're under
trial. Why? Why are they Why is there a
trial for everyone? Whether they are a
Jew or a non-Jew, whether they are alive
or dead, why is there a trial in Mosh?
The trial is based on what you do in the
last year. Now, it says that Hashem
opens the book of the living that we
understand. In the last year, you did
feeling, you did this, you looked, you
didn't look, you you did a lot. We
understand why someone that's alive has
a trial. Hashem has to assess what has
he done in the last year. What about the
dead? What did he do? He died. He's not
here anymore. Every year, Hashem
assesses what did he leave in the world?
What did he leave in the world? Now, did
he leave kids that didn't believe in
God? Cuz he wasn't exactly so religious.
So, he didn't send them to yeshiva. So,
his kids married Goyote. So, now his
grandkids, they also married Goyote. And
now Judaism has been destroyed in that
family. his his seed is gone or they
became thieves or they became Ponzi
schemers or they became criminals of
some kind or they violate Shabbat every
week. Now he left this in the world
they're going to evaluate and see what
kind of what kind of results did your
work that you had while you were alive
leave. If you left people that were
religious and they're keeping mitzvot
and you have grandkids that are keeping
mitzvot and you have grandkids keeping
and one became a rabbi and one became
and one this and one that and so on
say oh we're going to get you to a even
higher level of so every single person
that understands we have a trial coming
up in a few weeks has to get prepared
has to start understanding okay I have a
trial this is very scary the people that
already left the world are scared. I at
least I should be scared. I should get
prepared. I should show up with
something. So, what do you do? You
prepare for the case. You prepare for
the case. Okay. What could I what could
I show up? Okay, I'm going to show up.
You know what? I didn't really learn
that much this year. I learn maybe once,
twice a week. So, at least for the next
few weeks, let me learn every day and
start making it a thing where I'm
learning every day. Every day, every day
a little every day a little few every
day something. I'm sorry. I only learned
10 minutes a day for for the last year.
Okay, let me do 15 minutes now. Let me
do an hour now. Let me do more. Why?
