This year uh is really part three of a series of ideas and those ideas are why does the raernish do what he does? Now of course his actions are infinite. We know that. But can they fit into a pattern, a general category that will organize his acts? Because his acts are obviously infinite in terms of their breadth and their depth. But believe it or not, they can be organized into a series of ideas. You know, less you think, well, what do I have to know this for? Because what it will give is tremendous clarity. One in terms of what is happening in the world. And why? Because obviously they must conform to the acts of God because he does everything far more than we can imagine him doing but he does everything. So in order to really have a grasp of what's happening in the world, you really have to know why does God do what he does. [clears throat] And obviously you can't, you know, organize it individually. They're infinite. But we can look at the pattern. And that pattern can tell us a great deal of why God does what he does. and how does it all make sense especially in terms of today's time and that's what I want to talk about and uh continue so it's really important shir uh in terms of what to know the behavior of the lurum but you should know one thing in the end of time he will reveal feel everything that he did and why. So you shouldn't think well maybe a great deal won't be understood. No, you will understand. And obviously when you hear it all, you won't believe the unbelievable cohesiveness of every single thing that he did and how it all makes sense according to justice. Uh before I be begin however let me just dedicate this year this year should be a blessing and a merit for the health and success of the families of Regina bus Yoseph Ruv um and Ben Israel Binyan Wolf uh Ben Zev Hers and Bor Beny Wolf Wolf Schmo Ruven Ben Regina for a Fujma. Uh and also Schlommo Le Ben Akiva Ben Tova Esther and Elon Isaac Ben Sora Tovo. They all have only uh good news to hear. So let's begin. Now it's been uh I think about two weeks since I gave the last year. So what's important is just a very quick summary so you remember what was said. I want you to be able to connect all the dots. Right? Well, I talked about the concept of the anhogus of the raernish lordum, which means how do we understand the nature of the behavior of what the ram does as he conducts his relationship with the creation. And this is obviously nothing compared to what he really does. But at least it will have give us some type of understanding. Okay. I had mentioned that there are four hagus four series of actions that the does and very quickly there's the anhusakum which is those actions that he does to create this world and the future world because that's ultimately what he wants. that maz should precede obviously and it's all about giving mitzvah it's all about creating a test for mankind especially the Jewish people right uh for them to enjoy an eternal infinite reward and so on So that is hoga or the behavior that God does to establish the setup itself. Okay. Now once the setup is done then there's what's called hanoga mishb the attribute of justice where god takes actions in terms of a judgment response. Well what did the person do? Did he do mitzvas? Right? And was he tested? Did he come out doing a mitzvah or did he sin? And what is my response to that? Do I reward him? And I mentioned last time that there is no reward in this world and I mentioned why. [clears throat] And by the way, I might as well say which is very interesting. You'll notice that it doesn't really say anything about hab in the Torah. In fact, it barely says that there isn't if you think about it. And that that of course has been a deep question of many many people. There are obviously many answers. But I feel that really logically there's really only one simple answer and you don't have to go into all the answers that people attempt to do to respond to and so on. What is that answer? Because think about that. [clears throat] I once gave a shir that what this test is all about ultimately is for us by doing a mitzvah to draw down divine energy and that changes the physical world into another reality which we do not know what it is. It is not the messianic era. It's much different than a messianic era. It's a different reality of which we have no idea what it is. So if I want to describe something to you, let's say a reward for your actions, if it in your reality, it makes sense because you can understand it. And not only do you understand it, it means something to you. So it can be it can provide an incentive for you to do that action. But what happens if that that reality is not the reality you know? It's not that you don't see it or you don't hear it or you don't know it. No, you cannot even envision it because it's beyond your ability to conceive even is something that you have to be given the lens. It's like if you're blind or if you have terrible eyesight and you don't have glasses, you can barely see where you're going. So, if you don't see something, what does it mean to describe it to you? You don't know what I'm talking about because you do not experience that reality. Well, then how can I possibly describe it? And even if I did, if God described, what would it mean? you don't know what he's talking about because the reality that he describes doesn't exist. So it's not going to provide an incentive. Doesn't mean anything to you. That's why it's not in the Torah. So there is a reality that God describes in terms of what looks like a reward where God says, "Well, if you do my commandments, I will give you the rains in its time." Oh. Oh, that I understand. Especially if you're a farmer. I understand what it means to have the rains in my time because I know what rain is. That's why God describes realities of the future in terms of unbelievably beneficial. He only describes it in what way? In physical terms that you can understand. He doesn't bother describing the real because there's no words that you can possibly appreciate of what that is. There you are. Very simple. That's why the reality of is not at all described. What is described is that there is some type of reward. That's true. But he but it's only described in physical terms. You know, women will not miscarry. You won't get sick and so on and there'll be rains. There'll be plenty of food and so on. But the real hab of course can never be described. Anyway, that's what an amishput is. And we know also right that the reward if God does give you cannot be a reward. It can only be an increased opportunity to do more mitzvah to get involved in more spirituality. That's what we do know. Okay. The next hanoga and that's what I'm describing now is anoga and I mentioned the ideas of the attribute of the oneness of God which means it takes a supreme being that is above everything in order to do this because God violates if you want to look at it that way he violates mishb he violates justice Because justice doesn't say that you're guaranteed and I mentioned what is a guarantee that the world will survive that there will be a nation in that's a guarantee. Why? Because that's the will of God. He will not be frustrated even though mankind has free will. And therefore that's called it is done only by a being that is supreme and above justice and can do whatever he wants and there's no possible opposition to what he wants. Right? Also I mentioned last week or two weeks ago that Aroinu was offered the position to fulfill the purpose of God. You know and I mentioned also that mankind is guaranteed to exist but not a specific nation. And what Arainu accomplished and he had that sign with the burning the Brisbane Absurum, right? That mankind and what Arau got was a guarantee that was now transferred to the Jewish people to a single nation as opposed to anybody in mankind and so on. So now the Jews are guaranteed to exist which means that they are indestructible and that is why we are the only nation of antiquity. If you think about that look back in a history book and all nations of antiquity are gone. They were all buried underneath the ground. Greece, Rome, Babylon, Assyria, and so on. They're gone. There's no remnant left. Whereas Judaism, Jews were the same guys that we were 4,000 years ago. Why? Because of an Yehud. Because that's what Araminu did for us. He got from us. And that's very important. I also mentioned something very important that God instituted a second division of labor and I mentioned what that was g that remain it's pretty gullless remain assimilated right I should say don't assimilate in the nations that I send you to remain apart and if not then aud them you will serve them and if you keep sinning then God says they will afflict you. So that is a unique avoid labor or task that you have to perform you see and that is the avoid called cullis using these three stages of song. Okay, great. So, that's a review. Is there anything more to say? Well, of course. First of all, I don't recall if I said this two weeks ago, but we see it alluded to in the tillum. It says means God is righteous in all his ways. That's Mishbot. Okay, that is justice. So he's a sadic in all his ways. But in all his actions, he's aid. Aid does that which is beyond justice. What indicate? What does that indicate? Which that's the so the anogish the attribute of justice or the actions of justice is sadic makes sadic but the attribute of right that is the attribute of or the guarantee so he's always looking for your survival or like I I mentioned I did mention is it says I am God your healer which means that justice does not demand rehabilitation that's somebody that wants us to survive no matter what we did now where do we encounter this well if you really think about that you begin to realize something that God guaranteed what that the brio the creation will have a tikun. That's what it means that mankind or that the Jews will survive. They will do the tikun. Whether it be method A or method B, they will do the tikun. [clears throat] Which means that the Jews must survive as a nation through Yakov and through the Yudam or at least through Yakov. That means the descendants of Yakov must survive, okay, to do the that's what is. Well, guess what? You'll now understand something that that was actually threatened, right? It actually was threatened. In fact, it was threatened twice. It would seem so, but obviously there's got to be an understanding of this. When was it threatened? Once. Okay. And it's fascinating. when the Jews did the kettoel when the Jews did sin with the golden calf. So Moshua Benu immediately understood bad news for the Jews. I mean they get out of Egypt finally God takes them out of Egypt and gives them the Torah on the 17th day of Tamas they sin. So that's very bad. So Moshu Rabenu knew immediately he's got to go up or actually he did it when he was already up there receiving the Torah. And God said to him, "Your children have corrupted themselves. Le go down, right?" What was God saying? Well, the Jews could have brought the Messiah. And not only that, you would have brought the Messiah. So God says to Moshe, "Step aside and I will destroy them." That's what he said. Now that's an incredible threat. I mean, God can wipe out doesn't make a difference how many millions there are. In an instant of time, he can wipe everybody out. All he does doesn't kill them. He just diverts his attention from them for a nancond and guess what? They all disappear. That's it. We need the constant input of the will of God. Exist. Exist. Exist. Well, guess what? We disappear because we do not have the ability within ourselves to exist independently of God even after he created us. Do you imagine what we are? We're like a whisp of smoke that in a second could be gone if it wasn't kept on being fueled. Same thing if God doesn't think about us right 24/7 we disappear talk about continuity or if you think you're somebody you don't realize you're less than a zero cuz at least a zero exists you don't it's only the will of God or the thought or the attention of God on you for microscond to microscond and that's the reason why you exist. If he diverted his attention, you'd be instantly obliterated instantly and so on because he is the absolute cause of your existence. It's not like something else. For instance, if you light a fire and you walk away, well, it exists. Even if you walk away, you don't have to think about it. You don't have to attend eventually of course you have to refuel it but basically it exists independent of you but we don't we don't have that feature so therefore when God said I will destroy them what does that mean you have any idea how dangerous that is absolutely incredible so what does Moshu Rabenu do with that kind of a statement First of all, you may ask, "Wait a minute. You said that they are guaranteed to exist, right? So, what do you mean you destroy them? You can't destroy them. You swore that their descendants would be forever. That's the guarantee of so how can theam say I will destroy them stand aside and I will destroy them which is a very powerful question and now you understand what said stand aside I will destroy them and I will make you the nation in which Israel will exist right he needed Moshu Enu to say, "Okay, I will be the the of the patriarch of a new nation that comes out of me, even though I really come out of Ley or whatever. So, as long as Jews exist out of somebody from Yakov, God has fulfilled his promise." Now, you know what? Why the Rabosam said, "I will make you a great nation." He had to because of his oath. Interesting. And Mushraenu knew that. So of course Mushraenu who was the great defender of Clyisville. What does he say? No, I'm not going to do it. I don't give you permission. And the BA wants his permission. He's not going to do it against his will. And the whole thing is lopsided. So Moshu Rabenu said, "Hey, you know, look, if you destroy me, then you can do me a favor. Erase me from your safer. Imagine if Moshu Rabain was erased from the Torah." So of course I hate to say it to use this expression but in that sense since he had to make Mosha Abenu the continuity of Cly Israel he was stuck because he wasn't going to violate the free will of Moshe you see and he had no other choice he needed somebody to say yes now maybe you can say well why didn't he pick somebody else you Well, apparently the Rabanam saw that everybody sinned at least to the extent that they couldn't be the forerunner of the Jewish people. Was Mosha Sunni did not sin with theel not only because not only historically he couldn't sin. He was up there receiving the Torah. He wasn't even there and he wasn't even aware until Dasham told him right that your children have sinned. So he said no. So therefore the Bam said okay I will forgive them. What does that mean? I won't kill them. So thank God you can use that expression that the orenu averted the decree which is really incredible when you think about that and so on you know he averted the decree. But Moshu Rabenu was very very smart because he knew well okay so the Bum guarantees that they will exist but maybe he's going to pay take away the privilege of tikun so now the Jews are no longer the Messakin give it to somebody else I mean he'll look around or find somebody right so even though they exist as a nation right and he won't kill them but maybe he'll give them the ability of tikken to somebody else and moshabu did not want that so what's moshenu do he goes down to kisville breaks the lucas which itself is a very fascinating historical point obviously has tremendous repercussions without going into it and he goes back up, right? He goes back up 40 days later, right? 40 days after the 17th of Thomas, he goes back up. Why? Because his next prayer is let the Jews remain as a messaken, as a rectifier of creation. It's not enough that they exist. No, I want them to remain with the privilege of being the ones who do the tikun. Talk about a lawyer. But in order to really defend the Jews, you have to know hashkafa. If he doesn't know what's at stake, how's he going to defend the Jews? So Moshu Abenu went up 40 days later a second time and prayed to the please let them remain a msaken and theam said okay so thenu went down again okay but he realized nope he's not finished yet because maybe the bam is agreed to this here's what I'm going to do. They'll exist and they will actually maintain their original position which is to do the tikun to rectify creation. But maybe what's called the hedging your bets, he's going to pick a second nation with the Jews to do it in case they fail. So at least he's got somebody else. So Moshu Raenu said, "Oh no, I don't want anybody else." Right? So he went up a third time to defend the Jews and to beg the and this was to beg the what? Please don't give away the power of tikun to any other nation. Let it remain with the Jews. Which is incredible. three requests. Don't kill them. Let them be the Messiah, right? And don't let anybody else do the tikun because there's something special [clears throat] about having saved the entire creation. Just think about what Misha is doing, you know, [clears throat] and so on. That's how much Mishraenu loved the Jews. I mean, imagine if God said to you, I will make you, you know, the Jewish people. How many people would have said, okay, okay, it's too bad about the Jews. They messed up, but you want to give it to me? No problem. You have any idea what that means? That you are the originator of the ones who brought the tikun to the entire creation. It's unimaginable the honor. You know, talk about a legacy. It's incredible. [clears throat] But Moshu Rabenu refused. He said, and not only refused, he said, "You can erase me from your whole safe for which is really eternity." You think about, and I don't, it doesn't say anywhere in the Kumish that they gave him a fee, a lawyer's fee at all, right? This look at what Mashabu did. Talk about a leader that loves Israel and so on. And the Rabam agreed. What did he agree to? He restored the Jewish people to their greatness. And what was the repercussions? Well, that was on Yum Kipa. 40 days later after Yumipa. So on Yum Kipa, God forgave the Jews totally. And that became to us an everlasting holiday of Caporra. And now you understand the real origin of Yam Kipa where we were restored completely to what we were and so on. And in terms of retribution of what the Jews did, God will handle that through the generations, you know, which and we have been. Much of the suffering that we go through is because of the sin of the golden calf. But at least we do the same job we always did. And now devolves again upon us. And now you understand something very important which I'm not going to go into but I will mention because now is the perfect time. You now understand what sukus is. Those clouds there were clouds that accompanied the Jews in the desert. The clouds are covered. Why? Because they are the symbol of the anhog. That is a symbol that we are divinely protected. The symbol was clouds and they left at the right. They disappeared because we no longer had the guarantee of survival. They came back on the 15th of Tish, right? Why? Because an was restored only to us. So they returned. And now you understand something which is very puzzling. Why is there such joy on sukus? And it says three times and you will rejoice in your holiday. Why does it say that? Because the joy is that the whole job, the whole task of rectifying creation, which is the greatest task of all, was restored to the Jewish people and was restored to the Jewish people. That's what's called the reinstatement of the contract, never to be broken again. fascinating story of the history that it was threatened yet it was saved. So if that's the case then there's something very puzzling, right? What is puzzling? Well, let's look at the other great sin of the Jewish people. There were two great sins. The Jews could have had gone to Erit Israel right then and there, right? They didn't have to wander in the desert yet. The Moragim, the story of the spies and their lush horror against Erit Isil hadn't happened yet. So what happened? It happened. Okay. And God and God of course says to meenu, I will destroy them. Wait a minute. This is like a repeat. You can't destroy them because you reinstated them. So how how can you even make a statement like that? How do we understand this? This is not an easy thing to answer. You see, he did it once, but then okay, so he had to forgive the Jews cuz Mashabain refused. But how can you say it again, right? And he, you notice he didn't ask Muain, you know, and so on. Well, you know, I want you to and make you a great nation because he already knew Mo is going to say no. So then how does he say it? And the answer is something very very strange. What was the sin of the moragum really? Was it lash? That's what Kazal say. What was the lash directed to? Now it is true that you should not denigrate Erit Israel. That is true. But that's not really Linara because erit Israel is a land doesn't have consciousness basically. Okay. Nobody's embarrassed. Nobody's damaged. But there is. But really it is lashara. To who? Not ter Israel, although you could say it is. But it's damaging. It's embarrassing. It's denigrating to God because what did they say? Their t was they saw giants in Israel and they said forget it. We can't conquer Israel. There are giants there and they'll kill us all. I mean if you take a look at the you know schlak the whole story of the moraglam it was denigrating to God. They spoke lush and horror about Israel, which is an implication that God made a tremendous mistake. He took us out of Egypt to give us erit Israel. What does that mean? He can't he can't take it over. And look at Rashi. And Rashi says they were talking in relationship to God that he can't overcome these giants. Now I'm not going to go into how could they possibly think that way when [snorts] he destroyed Egypt which was the greatest nation on earth without getting into that. [clears throat] They speaking terrible linara on God's choice to give to the Jews. That was the real sin of the moragim. So what was God saying? God is saying they are referring to my abilities. Right? For they are stronger than him is referring to my abilities. What they're saying is I don't have the ability to bring them init or to have them survive. That means they're questioning my ability of right of my ability to keep them alive eternally. Well, if they don't believe in the nanhaga, so how could I possibly do it for them? Because God only reacts to what we believe. Everything is a mida mida. If you believe God has a certain attribute, then he will display that attribute in response to your belief. measure for measure. But if you do not have faith in God, if you don't believe in him, if you don't believe he has that attribute, then he doesn't display it. Why? Because he acts according to your belief. That's measure for measure. That's called midadin, justice. So here they are saying that God can't overcome these giants, right? and you want me to protect you which is an exact opposite of what you're saying. No, I cannot display that because you don't believe in it. So that's why and the Jewish people mourned that night because of what the moragum all the Jews except and Yeshu they mourned that night because well that's the end of Israel then how can I display the guarantee that I can keep you guys existing forever you don't believe in it I can't do it not because I can't because I won't because you don't believe in it. That's why God can say as far as I see that's why God can say no I will destroy them now I it's incredible how he's got to come up with an answer for this right and he's our lawyer at that moment in time he's our lawyer standing between us and God and God has a very good time you don't believe in it I don't do it know we're the ones who destroyed his ability because we don't believe he can do it. So Moshuenu came up with a brilliant Tina. It's amazing how he came up with this right on the spot. What did they Jews say? So God said I'm going to destroy them. Why? Because they said I can't take them in Israel. I can't defy or I cannot conquer uh these uh giants and so on. Right? So in other words, I'm limited. I am limited my powers. That's what the Jews are saying. Well, if that's the case, then I'm limited and that's it. So Moshu Raenu said, "If you destroy them, not only do the Jews say that, you will actually be vindicating and certifying that that what they said is true, that you don't have the power to bring him in." Why? Because the nations will say, "Well, why did God kill his people? He brought him out of Egypt with all those miracles, 10 plagues, and so on, right? He brought him out of Egypt. Why? Because he doesn't have the ability to bring him into Israel. They will actually agree with the Jews. So you will be giving a voice to mankind to deny your power, your omnipotence. That doesn't make sense. You will actually be certifying the Tina of the Jews to the nations of the entire world. What a brilliant statement that Mosenu said about the other words. Why? Why? Why do you want to do that? The truth is you don't really have to listen. You don't have to care what the nations will say. But it makes a lot of sense. You don't want to certify what they say to the nations of the world because you're making on yourself to the nations of the world. And God said, "You got a point. So I will forgive them." Because he had no choice because there was nobody else to take it over. You see? So Moshu Rabenu with his brilliant Tina saved the Jews again. I mean, this is the man to hire as a lawyer. There's no question about that, you know. But what is so interesting is that it shows you how much he loved the Jewish people that he was willing to forgo eternity. I mean, you have any idea what it means that you say, "Erase me from your safety." You have any idea what that even means? The Torah is eternal. That means Mosh Rabenu's name is eternal. It will never be forgotten in all time. as the greatest one of the greatest Jews or the mo one of the most successful Jews that ever lived. And he's willing to erase that. I mean, talk about a a statement, a claim of greatness and popularity, whatever, and so on and renown. And he was willing to give it up for what? and an incredible position for the Jewish people cuz he realized the prize of God is not Mosha it is the Jewish people and if they don't exist then what is my point of being here and so on and Mosha was able was willing to relinquish that whole idea it's interesting that tanhog is on display, you know, and it's threatened for the second time and so on, you know, but I'm hoping I'm sure I'm I'm sure that uh this there's no more threat and the proof is it's 4,000 years later or it's 3,300 years since Mueno and guess what? How many pgrams, expulsions, inquisitions, right? Holocaust. How much of that have we gone through? Persecutions, 3,300 years worth of that. And we're still around. In fact, we're around longer than anybody else. And we're the only nation of antiquity. So therefore obviously is well and thriving that's obviously so we have to thank God that nothing has damaged that and so on you know so this is the concept of the anhog so you now understand three anhogas of and what he does and some of the fascinating history of these patterns or these categories or these acts of God, some of their history, some of their depth, what they are and how important they are to creation. We see history as it proceeds. The truth is I want to move further in history and so on to explain two very a very important idea. [clears throat and cough] You shouldn't think that God wants only for the Jews. No, once the goyam nations exist, then they have God has hanhog to them too. He also relates to non-Jews. He relates to the concept of nations. And what the obviously wanted, he wanted the Jews, most people are not aware of this. He wanted the Jews not only to observe the mitzvah, to observe the Torah and so on, but to be a model of righteousness to the goyam. It's been said many times, I know Rashim Hersh refers to this many times that we are a light unto the nations. And it's true the BA wants the Jews to be a light to the nations cuz he's not only concerned about the Jews although that's his primary concern because they do the deacon but he's also concerned with the behavior of the because he also wants them to exist because they are his nroy they are his creations you know it's not that they completely exist for the Jewish people or that's their real reason. That's their primary reason. But once they exist, he wants them to be righteous and that is why he made the seven laws, seven no laws. If he wasn't interested in the nations of the world, why would he make laws from the Goyam? Let them originate their own laws. No, he made the seven no laws because he wants a measure, not 613, but he wants a measure of righteousness by the Gentiles, Gentiles also. They don't understand that. But a key concept of the Gentiles, the seven Nokai laws, is they have to do it not because these are the laws of civilizations, but because God wants them to believe in God and they reason why they observe the seven Noite laws is because God commanded them and that's it. If they do that, they are considered righteous. And if they are considered righteous, they will get the future world also. Not in the same measure obviously as the Jews, but they will get the future world. But let me tell you something. The smallest amount of the future world is infinitely greater than the whole six, seven, whatever six, 5,000 years of haz. So let's not minimize what Haba is even at the lowest level. But he wants non-Jews also to have a future. But there was a problem. God wants the Jews to be a model for the Goyam. And as history went on, they were not a model. Especially when with the destruction of the second temple, God destroyed the second temple which I mentioned in the first year. The what? He destroyed this temple because of what? Because of sin and lush and horror. That's a bad sin. Why? Because it's not only that lushh horror destroys you know uh the can destroy the reputation or physically monetarily or whatever another person what it destroys is the unity of the Jewish people and the unity of the Jewish people is critical is paramount to God. So God decided that they can no longer be a model, a proper model that is to the nations of the world. So therefore he decided and only he can decide that that he's going to appoint another nation in some manner. Actually it's another religion because a nation is one thing. A religion can be kept by many nations. And what I'm about to tell you is what the Rambam says, right? No less arician than the Rambam says this. The Mishna that he appointed Christianity, right? This is amazing because when you think about it, what are the odds that some guy that was killed, crucified by the Romans for being a rebel of by the Jews, king of the Jews, because he declared himself king of the Jews and so on. That's why he was killed. He was killed by the Romans, not the Jews, because he declared himself to be king of the Jews. And believe me, the Romans were very careful about any kind of rebel against their empire. That's why he was killed by Pontius Pilot and so on. You know, [clears throat] what are the odds that a man who was crucified as a criminal by Rome should now have a religion or followers of two billion people. There are no odds. But the Burian wanted another religion away from paganism because paganism we know what it is. It's a multiplicity of deities which is further from the truth is a desor. So he wanted a religion that would be more truthful not that it's the complete truth which it's not. This concept of the trinity is a tremendous desecration of the name of God without getting into the whole idea because God says obviously here O Israel the Lord our God lord is one they come along and say well he's really one in three parts I mean we talk about confusion and talk about nonsense and by the way most people do not know just tell you this most Christians do not know that there is no concept of trinity in their New Testament doesn't exist and where they got it from whatever but there is no such thing as the trinity in the new testament so how they could believe that as some type of a divine message is astonishing but any case without getting into that so Christianity really should have been a religion where you have Yeshu and you have the this concept of the triny is what's called a pagan after effect because Christianity what it really is is paganism with a Jewish veneer. That's really what it is. So I don't want to get into Christianity and so on but it's really paganism a multiplicity of deities and but it has a Jewish window dressing you know because they have so many Jewish ideas in Christianity and without the Torah there would be no Christianity and that's why they always seek proofs of their deity in the Torah which of course is false completely defaults. But any case, without getting into Christianity and so on, so therefore, he chose this man who was Jewish. If God's going to choose anybody other than Judaism, who's he going to choose? He's going to choose a Jew and so on. So that's what he chose. And he elevated miraculously a criminal of Rome to be a deity of two billion people. And it's interesting what they introduced. If you really think about that, paganism doesn't have an end. Paganism not only doesn't have an end, but it has no real, it has many deities. It does not have a messiah. They don't believe in Messiah. It's all gods or demiggods or whatever they call them and so on. Right? Not only that, it doesn't even really have an accountability, you know, where you are held accountable for your actions and so on. Doesn't have that. It doesn't have really an afterworld. Once you're dead, you're dead and it's over with and so on. You know, it doesn't have many, many things and so on. Christianity has all that. So it's interesting that even though they have paganistic ar origins all their holidays are basically paganisting paganistic and so on you know and whether it be Easter or Christmas or whatever their holidays are pagan origin they're all Roman origin and so on without getting into them but they all believe that there is an end there is a messiah which they they consider of course Yeshu There is an accountability and so on. There is a gahum and there's a deity although they say there three which is nowhere in the new testament and so on which is inconceivable if according to them it was true Christianity has an afterworld and so on right you know so the ram uses Christianity to promote these ideas which were absent in paganism right Why? Because he is concerned with the goyam. He is concerned with them. He wants them to observe the noide laws and get some form of right. So the Jews were supposed to be that. But how the lush and horror sin they hate each other and so on to such an extent where God had to destroy the basikdash. So therefore, Christianity has served as a model. And what we see interesting is not only that it survived as a major religion of the world, right? But that they became missionaries, right? They went around the entire world. Many religions are not missionaries at all. Either believe them or not. They're they're local and so on, you know. But they actually went around the world trying to make people into Christians whether it be Asia or Africa or any other continents and so on. Why? Because that's their tough kid, right? Is to bring somewhat of a nuna that makes sense which is closer to Judaism in that sense. You know, like I say, the concept of accountability, judgment, a judgment day, the concept of a messiah, the concept of a an end and so on, a one or a deity basically that's one and so on and so on. And the concept of an imam, he wants that. So he invested in them a spirit of going around the world. And that's what they did. They've been all over the world trying to missionize the goyam. Now we begin to understand what is making sense here. But of course the chose a Jew because only a Jew can represent a real a real religion in that sense or to be a missionary for a religion. But there was a big problem. Why? Because Christianity always has a feeling of guilt or a feeling of inferiority. Cuz why don't they Jews accept them and the Jews reject them from the beginning? They rejected them without getting into why in obviously it's all false. No proof. There's not a shred of evidence that anything he said was true except probably said he was Jewish. So that was true. uh so what is the point of all of this and so on you know so they have this sense of inferiority when they gets to the Jews and by the way that's one of the origins of anti-semitism because there's a deep sense of inferiority that the Jews have never accepted them and the Jews are the root of Christianity it's obvious they even recognize that that's why they always trying to bring proofs from the Torah of the existence of the validation of their guy and so on. So as a result of their inferiority, they got to convince themselves that the Jews are wrong and they're right. So guess what? What do they resort to? Kill the Jews. This is the problem. So it's very bad. There's the Jewish people and there's a Christianity. But Christianity is far more because the wants it to go to go around the world. So they're going to kill all the Jews out. So the cannot allow that. So what does he do? Well, you see what the kavana originally was. He wants the world to begin to observe the seven no laws because he wants them to have an eternal existence and so on because they're also his creations and so on and once you're his creation and he gives you a task and if you are righteous then you deserve and so on. So what does he do? says I got to create another religion right that's also MS much greater in relative but it doesn't exist now you see and they will fight the Christians and the Jews will escape so when it gets too big in one religion he'll create another religion and they'll go there that land so what religion does he create Islam 500 years later or less, he creates a religion and he designates a guy Muhammad to found another religion. What are the odds? Where in in Arabia, right? In 7th century Arabia. And who is Arabia? Yeshua. Another Jew, right? Only Jews can create religions apparently. Nobody else is really successful except maybe if you look at Buddha. But that has a whole medish of Afrou the uh the sons of Aroma of Venu went to the east. That's the whole medish and they influence and so on. But in any case, so you have what do you have? Islam. Islam that really does believe in one God although not really people don't understand that their their god which they call Allah is really was really the moon god and they elevated that god to be the god Allah is not the believe me and so on I don't want to get into that and so on but Allah is really the moon god that they elevated just take a look at any of the historical accounts of Islam forming and so on. But the main idea is that it is only one God. What they changed wasn't the deity, which is what Christianity changed. They elevated their their guy into a deity, which of course is Sheha. But at least they didn't elevate Muhammad into a deity. They just elevated him into the greatest of all prophets, which less of a less of a problem than Christianity did. But in any case, all of a sudden, Christianity and not Christianity, Islam took off, right? Muhammad is born in 570. You see a little more than 500 years after Christianity and all of a sudden within what is it 60 70 80 years becomes a world religion where in the Middle East not in Europe and what was interesting is that they fought each other. It's legends the wars that Christianity had that Christians have with Islam. I mean the whole crusades was basically the war between Christianity and Islam and so on. And therefore the mushroom created another religion which in certain in ways is much more truthful. There is only one God and that's what they recognize. But of course what do they do? They also kill the Jews because whoever becomes a world religion their gut feeling is that the Jews are right because everybody gets the gut feeling that the terror is true is MS right and they're jealous and [clears throat] in many ways that becomes the origin of anti-semitism. So we see two major religions which dominate the world. You see because between them both they got four billion people which is more than half the earth or right now it is half the earth and so on [clears throat] and so on that the in some way helped to achieve some sense of uh correct behavior and so on. You know, in any case, we're getting close to the end of time and I have one I have another hugger to complete, which is the Anhuga of the Kates and I don't have the time to go into it now, but I will go into it next the next time and that is a full discussion on what is the concern of the especially at the end of time and there's something that you will realize which is in many ways shocking that there are three Messiahs Shikh Bened and there's a Messiah which is mentioned in the Zoya and it's also mentioned certainly in the Ram called the Mashiach Benon right and the Rya the proof of that is Yakov we actually refer refers to the Msiah Ben except he doesn't call him that although that's really what it is and I'm referring to Shimshine but there's a whole history why do you need a third Messiah and what is it about what's the purpose and so on and not only that what is the concerns of the rail in the end of time that he has to take care of historically and environmentally And we are going to see that everything you see today is really addressing a concern that the is taking care of right before Messiah at the end of time. So I think you'll really find it fascinating because you're going to see how it really uh interacts with the 21st century what's going on and why. There is one thing I wanted to mention because everybody's always interested in current events. So I figured there's one thing I I would mention. Trump has to be very careful. Very careful. Why? Because if you defy God, if you are chosen for a mission, then God will interact with you and remove you from that privilege. Where do we see that? Shaw, King Shaw, Hamelik, he made a terrible mistake. There are several mistakes that Shaw made. Okay. The worst one was that he failed to kill Aog. He failed. Shulan Noi told them the wants you. He's going to give you the ability and the power to kill a mole. I want you to wipe them out. This is a command of God given to him by Anovi. Shmulhanovi. So he was commanded by the Rabonam to do that. Did he kill Aog? No, he did kill the Amalachites, but he didn't kill the king. And the king lived for one day or whatever. And he had a woman with him and they had a kid and from that came Hmon. If it wouldn't have been for that then Shaw would have been king and would have had descendants which were king. Why? Who is Shaw? Shaw was Mashiach Bisf is from Binyam Beno. So that's who Shaw really was. But because Sha Hamel was a murder sadic that we see failed to do what he should have done which is at civo a command of God then God deposed him from his mus you have to be careful when you're in that kind of position you have to be very careful in terms of what you do now I personally believe that Trump was saved from bullet Pennsylvania to take out Ishmael in the form of Iran because that's the last real cleoer or terror agent of Yeshu against the Jewish people and I believe that the Russian wants them gone and he basically saved Trump to do the job and he gave him the power he gave from the power. Trump, like I once said, is not the president of the United States. He's the emperor of Western civilization because everybody regards him as the strongest and greatest voice in the world. Everybody cowers in a certain sense in front of Trump because the reabonam gave them the power almost not of a messiah obviously not but he gave them the power and the recognition of a supreme leader and so on and not only that but he's got both houses of Congress gave him tremendous power and recognition and success because he has allowed him to elevate America tremendously economically, militarily and so on. So what he wants him a fundamental mission of Trump is to destroy Iran and I've spoken about this [clears throat] extensively in previous shurum under that title of Trump and so on know but without getting into it and I mentioned why I believe he's not doing it he's dillydallying he's not doing it making a tremendous mistake because he doesn't understand. I mean, people look at him like there's something wrong with him, like he's a fool. Cuz everybody knows what Iran is. They've been fooling people for 47 years. Everybody knows you can't trust them. They will never repent. They couldn't care less about human life. They just killed at least 50 or 60,000 people and they kill people every day. This is what the repercussions is of allowing Trump to live. So what is he doing really? He's violating the com the wish of God and that's why God saved him which was a nest niglo which is an open miracle that he himself admits. So what does he think? Why does he think God saved him to make America rich? It's nonsense. God is not concerned with America. He's concerned with the entire planet. And he doesn't understand when you see evil, real evil, these guys will put, the Iranians will put a bullet in your head quicker than anything. And he's not destroying them. He's allowing Iran to kill Iranians and their proxies of Hezbollah and the Houthis and Kamas. Every day they kill people. So why are you letting them live? They should have died a long time ago. But you're playing around because you want an agreement. You think that they're going to give you their uranium? Of course not. Because without the uranium, they're nobody. In fact, they're all sitting there trying to build a bomb so they can threaten Europe and stop America because that's the only way they can recoup their reputation as being formidable cuz they're basically finished. So what do you want? You want to negotiate with them? You don't negotiate with Hitler, do you? Are you going to trust Hitler? And therefore I believe he's making a tremendous mistake. And I hope that the bosam in a certain sense has rahim on him because he's been threatened by his life six times which I think beats the odds of any president. He's already been threatened and we don't know what God is going to do. But God wants him to take out Iran. And when I say wants him to take out Iran, to end them, to destroy the IRGC, and to take away this evil. Thank you. I wanted to inform the am the public, the audience, uh that uh a certain milestone has been achieved. The destruction of the basdus happened because of a single sin that transpired. I'm not going to go into the elaboration of this but we know the sin is the concept of or the sin of Russian horror harmful speech. Now many years ago uh actually in 1988 it's a long time ago I gave a shar describing the pinemius which means the internal idea or principle of why lushian horror speaking harmful uh speech is so devastating how it destroyed the bas mikdash why it doesn't bring the msiach And I explained that and this of course is all based on what the says. Uh in any case uh I have tried many times to transcribe the shar and actually print it because there are people that would like to see it in print and read it. Well, it's finally been accomplished. Um Felheim has graciously accepted the uh opportunity to work on the shear and to print a transcript of the shear itself. And they've done really a beautiful job, excellent job. And what I've tried to do also is procure a lot of actually what I what you will consider gle signed on as endorsements for this shar you know they read the transcript uh certainly they saw the transcript and so on and they agreed wholeheartedly uh that people should acquire the transcript in print and to that end like I said Felheim has agreed and done a beautiful job publishing this transcript of that share it has now been uh brought to [clears throat] the United States and it's going to be distributed in the swarm stores uh before Shivamas uh I would urge everybody to try to secure a an addition of this uh shear because it will be lifechanging. I guarantee you that because I don't go into the muser which means you know uh the fact that you should not speak lash and as a meda as a good attribute and so on. But what the she is really all about is when you speak lush and horror, detrimental derogatory speech, what happens according to the divine plan? What happens to your muzzle? That is the question. What is h what happens to your good fortune and so on and the good fortune of your family? and it goes into extensively what the mechanics what the dynamics are of the occurrences that happen and it's all explained in the book. So in order to acquaint yourself with it and to prepare yourself for what is the what is the concept of shre and if you avoid speaking on what happens and so on all of this will be explained in this book that just came out by felheim. So I want to inform the public that it is now available in print. You can buy it in the swarm stores. Uh, and I would certainly urge everybody to get a copy. It's not expensive, but it's very comprehensive to read all about the major movement or dynamic of what caused the the destruction of the Ban Mikdash. What prevents the Basan Mikdes from being built? Okay. why the redemption doesn't happen, why are we still in Gulus? It will explain all of this in this particular book. I have titled the book um the true power of speech, the key to both worlds. And the reason for that is because I think it's an accurate description that really brings forward the message of the importance of Shmre Salos. The true power of speech means it actually has a power a very strong effect when you speak Lashinhara and if you avoid speaking lashhara it actually brings forth severe repercussions either way on this behavior speaking or not speaking and when I say the key to both worlds it's not only that it will bring you peace and harmony and goodwill in this world when you don't speak lush and har but it's the key to yes you'll actually understand why it is the key to right and I'm sure everybody wants to be inhaba the future world of your family and your community and of course the entire Jewish people. So therefore I call it the key to both worlds. So there you are. That's the title, the true power of speech and the key to both worlds. Read it and you'll see exactly why these titles are so appropriate. So again, I would urge everybody to get a copy, read it, and I guarantee you, that's right, I guarantee you that if you do that, it will profoundly affect your life and the life of your family. Right. uh and it will bring you tremendous merit in the fact that you have read it, understood it and actually put into practice the concept of Shm Saloshan of being very careful about not defaming in any way uh another person certainly another Jew and what it will add to the masle the good fortune of your family. And uh when you do buy the book, you will see exactly that it's probably one of the best investments that you've ever made. Thank you.
