How many years did King David live? Do you know? I'll tell you, 70 years. On which day of the week did he pass away? [music] On Shabbat, the seventh day. On which holiday? Shavuot. And what is the name of his wife who was destined for him since the six days of creation? Bathsheba. There you go. >> [music] >> The number seven characterizes King David. Every physical object has six sides, [music] the four directions of the sky plus above and below. The number seven is the inner [music] point. On the holiday of Shavuot, let's connect to our inner point through the book of Psalms. Through King David, [music] we will connect to the Holy One, blessed be He, connect to the people of Israel, and connect to the destiny of us all. May it be God's will that we merit the giving of the Torah and have a joyful Shavuot. Amen. May it [music] be so.
