Halacha Series part#4 Home2Torah with Rabbi Aaron Dovid Poston

[Music] many people in the morning read the sacrifices because the sacrifices are on some level personal but on most cases on a higher level it's a a how I translate in English there for the Seaboard for the community in other words in AD are the month of Adar which comes before pestsof becomes for the month of Nisan we all give a half a shekel according to the Torah and that's how census are done they count the coins that everyone gives them then we know how many Jews they are we never count Jews that's a whole other topic why and some of you may be privy to that because it says in the commission of plagues come not a good thing so we count by the coins that they give and the coins everyone gives the same amount whether you're rich or you're poor and I'm gonna tell you the truth in two weeks time you start collecting they have checkouts Club the exits a check out half shekel and it goes to the qurba notes for the communal sacrifices because we're all equal in it so there's this idea of reading the qurba note reading the offerings in the morning before diving to close on a certain level our prayers replace the offerings as it says in the prophets okay so for my Hebrew version I was right underneath this would be paragraph six in Chapter one and it mentions that we only say them during the day okay once you not recite the passages of the sacrifice except by day okay and that's when the offerings remain I mean there's certain times there's certain things that we do okay so then the other idea is paragraph seven there's a certain prayer that one should say when right when we finish reading these offerings that they should be accepted in other words since we don't have the temple we don't have the opportunity as if you're reading them is as if you're offering them up right which actually is a very high level of Prayer paragraph eight says one should be set along with the sacrifice passages the verse exactly you know where and how I remember I was at a meeting it was not really I wouldn't call it an interfaith meeting but it was oh I think some some of you guys were there it was the conference of Israeli Ephraimites and they were interested in all praying together with the Jews and wondering why we couldn't like have a prayer meeting together and our prayers are a little bit different because our prayers really are replacing the sacrifices and certain sacrifices early for Jews and where the blood is spilt and where in how it's offered and everything like that they could join us but we can't really join them anyway that was difficult explanation oh good I think to explain to them that we're a little bit more set in our practices and how we do things and they're welcome to join us but it's not like we can just prayers prayer we could pray anytime anywhere in fact that's really the the highest levels to be prayer to actually be involved in prayer all the time but we can't relinquish what we constantly do and need to do as an obligation and then paragraph 9 discusses some more of the we'll call preliminary prayers that have to do with the the incense offering and the different offerings and now we're go to chapter 2 which is a little bit more no Gaya a little bit more applicable to you guys so I have here we're gonna get to that soon we're gonna get to that soon right now we're here the laws of dressing how to get dressed in the morning so we're not going to do so much I think we'll do the first three I guess we'll do the first four five I think we'll do all six because they really hit okay let's try let's see how much time we can put into this okay so that would be in Hebrew right it's looks like this two pages like that this is the first page but the English if you I gave you guys a link so it looks like that did I give you a copy yet okay did Lavie Shas begat him the way that we dress ourselves with clothes there's six chapters or six paragraphs low-yield Bosch colugo we do shop there's gonna be some very very strange okay but the concept we have to get them the concept is to be very modest one should not get dressed while sitting even in their bed but rather Ella Akaka leuco rather should take his clothing while he's still in bed the Yaak nice bow Rochelle's rolled off the old a new show came while he's still have lying underneath his covers I mean today we dress in pajamas it's not a big deal but if one dress if one goes to sleep completely naked or partially naked then it's not it's not appropriate to walk around the house even naked so get dressed while you're under Neath your covers the ninja Giotto should Medusa so it comes out that when you get up you're already dressed you're not walking the main thing is not to walk around the house naked it's pretty much what it says in the English it basically mentions it in the commentary in the mr. Brewer that you don't want to if you're sitting down when you're trying to get dressed if you're completely naked then it comes out that you're revealing your your body or naked body and a person needs to behave in a modest fashion and with a certain sense of boosha boosha means certain sense though not just shame but like like a little bit of embarrassment little bit of shell thishe a in front of God even when you walk even when it's nighttime in the most inner you know room inside of another room in the innermost sanctum you shouldn't walk around naked even at night why hello below colors comodo is it not that Ash M Hashem he fills the entire universe and when it's dark and when it's light it doesn't matter there's no light or dark to God right it's it's you can see you can see through walls anyway you know that right and one should constantly be careful about this and then he mentions here interesting enough the laws it's not just women also men from the elbow and up should always be covered I'm talking about especially when you're outside but even in the house and he also discusses the idea of people wearing shorts or Nick I guess knickers the pants that come down to the below the knee that he says cuz today people wear socks it's not as it's a little bit more lenient about wearing these clothes because people wear socks but otherwise especially women should not walk around with their legs showing and that he also mentions about bare feet we will talk about surely people shouldn't walk barefooted either okay where we had okay we'll go to number two all you mark people should not say he named the five great tada ream me row Amy I mean the innermost sanctum truth gonna see me can cuddle borrow food my little cards covered up because they said he sees you you doc take this is three you doc take Toluca Lupo's Siddhartha make sure you wear your shirt in the right direction what does that mean it could mean inside out don't wear it inside out it can also mean backwards but here I think it means inside out shallow you have folks how penny me the foots so it might mean both what does he say he said one should not put one should be careful not to even your undershirt even the shirt that people don't see inside out or backwards okay this is going to be also very strange you're ready for strange we already know that right side is mercy the left side is is dim is ms judgment when we get dressed we put our right hand in to the grill put it on your head first and then your right hand in and then your left hand that's how you get dressed what about your shoes you put on your right shoe first you know me now you mean - fela you put on your right shoe first but don't tie it now I'm not so sure if this is Apple - with me but because it's gonna relate to pretty much - Philip okay so you know how to tell you teach your husband's how to dress don't tie it so you put the right shoe on first because the right always comes first and afterwards you put on your left shoe and then you tie it and then tie your right shoe and the reason is can we just read them the rap there a law our shoes that don't necessarily have ties right a lot of shoes today have no no laces so just go ahead and put on your right you first and don't worry about it okay so what's the idea here I'm left-handed so it's gonna be a little bit backwards for everybody cuz I put on my right shoe then I put on my left shoe then I tie my left shoe and then I tie my right shoe what's the idea we already know the right always comes first but why don't I tie my right shoe first I mean according did that right the idea is that when I put on Mike to fill it I use this hand I actually put on Mike's filling on my right arm okay but everyone else puts on their left arm okay it's a whole reason for that so they put on their left arm and when they one of the what's the myths with them it's was tying with filling so they tie it with their right hand so therefore when they put on their shoe they put on their right then their left then they tie their right right then I tie my left because I'm left-handed and I use my left hand to tie so it's a little bit confusing but we're constantly thinking how do we serve Hashem how we come close to a chef in every detail of our life we're just getting started here we haven't even really begun we're going to talk about which Hansen used to wipe yourself with wet wet and when you get in the shower what side of your body to shower with first yeah yeah we're you know it's just a shortened arm this is the shorter life not the kitchen chef Bernard it's a short rod it's the book of law and every detail about our lives is to bring us to God consciousness okay that's what it's all about and it's all in the details you send an email and you forgot to put a dot in the right place it's not gonna arrive right Chris you're businessman or you write a nice letter right your client or to perspective whatever and if if you don't put the dot in the right place you spent a lot of time for that computer and it's just not gonna arrive so old deeds matter okay the next 11 says isolation the kuma is a goof ah you're not allowed to walk with your back stretched out like that you know like with haughtiness okay you have to good posture is good okay but don't overdo it I mean I see some people walking around the streets I'm like whoa he doesn't know the whole of here and why should one write little aylesh are by almost beguiling a rush do not walk an ama is a cubit don't walk four cubits without a head covering so this does not apply to women this is a I should also tell you guys most of what is in the chakra arc does not apply to women but anyway this specifically a married woman should cover her hair of course we're not there yet we're not talking about that so he says it's very interesting what it says in the bottom [Music] even if your house has a roof right and how much more so if you're walking out into the under the sky the air of the heavens one should be careful in all these things and why dollar almost why'd the floor cubits it's actually he says it's like very pious even less than that amount not to walk your head with your head covering and even if you want to get up in the middle of the night so some some say maybe there could be a little bit lenient but there's an idea that if you need to say a brothel you get up in the middle of the night you I'm gonna make a broth off you take your sleeve and you can use your sleeve to cover your head right but you can use your hand your hand won't work your friends hand will work yeah you can use anything napkin and what is this all about so he brings down this idea and we just finished upstairs he says Mitnick Cabo - Nina it's an honour of its because of the glory or the honoring of the divine presence we call actually these things a yarmulke a yarmulke and it comes from year Malka fear of the king the Oliver's fear of the cat just having more constant recognition there's somebody above you okay recent behave I don't think it's so recent the gomorrah talks about it says it was certain rabbi a student who was in a class and this is the Gomorrah okay I'm very upset with him because he did not have his head covering and it made a statement that all married men covered their hairs they're in their heads that's a good Tom mood that's in the tongue it's no the questioning was that just talking about being pious was that beyond the letter of the law so that could be a question so the idea that Moses walk around with that head covering and then these people I mean we are tradition we have a tradition so how far back does the tradition goes at least from the time of the Guevara this person was kicked out for not having his head was it just the pious so we want to be pious that was at least the inference of the goomar could be it could be so let we can assume it's not in the Torah so the question is how far back does this cost of bills definitely a custom but if how far back does it go so if it's already considered a pious act two thousand years ago and we were it's basically OMA it's a it's like a uniform so you in you want to feel part of it you want to be part of it the once it's already in the Gemara and the shortened aarif and becomes a hollow cop so it's not really open for discussion doesn't mean you that you can wear a baseball hat you can wear any kind of hat right as long as your hands can heads covered the question you're asking how far back does it go so there are people who like to discuss these ideas would it really make a practical difference no but for the for the academic you know analysis it's quite enjoyable to treat you try to figure out when and how did it develop but practically it makes no difference because we follow the show Canara and it's very important to cover our heads in terms of women that's from the Torah that's for sure from the time a married woman covers her head and we know that from Salta it was a few other proofs but we have it's more than just a tradition of a development it was already from Fred okay when I say forever I mean time immemorial from the time of the revelation and many societies many doctors Christian you know in Africa maybe in Asia living in a Christian Europe for sure there are different women different customs of women covering their hair married women when they got it from us from the Bible okay the next Halawa is the last level really evening I think is it right we got to know number five we didn't do five I don't have it here I got here I skip something somehow okay number five cuz your highlights min Allah when you take off your shoes you remove your left shoe first and it's out of honor to the right so I skipped that so we went to six we did six and then towards the end of six it says the you've dog Nick of love this sounds very strange you checked your holes doesn't mean you check your holes it means you need to check if you need to go to the bathroom it's very poor we don't make blessings we don't pray to Hashem until we have emptied ourselves from the refuse that the word you know the excrement that we're carrying around with us I remember my roaches even telling me we're very different than the animals the animals they just go wherever whenever they feel like it you know a cat so so maybe bigger all the dog who knows but we we have to go to a prior to a private place yeah we have to can't just go anywhere so he says me a fascicle gufo the low yaly Yaakov Brad Lovaas well if nose bug give Aaron shoes rules reasons from the Cuse what does he mean here what you check to see if he needs to go to the bathroom usually you you know that you need to go but if you don't need to go sit down anyway there's a good mornin says they each rabbi they they went 20 they went and check themselves 24 times obviously it's an exaggerated number but there's a lesson behind it that they checked themselves so carefully to see if they had the feeling to go to the bathrooms you don't feel do you actually sit down know before you go to shoot before you in the morning men go to the minion every morning and before they leave the house before they pray they should check themselves did you guys hear the whole story here okay so I'll tell you this here we have Sahaba and devorah and sahabas from China where China Beijing okay and where where are you from Sharon Massachusetts okay there you go and her hair is covered okay okay so let's start with the Volusion store Chapter three next week [Music]
