Home2Torah The End Times Revealed? VaYechi with Rabbi Aaron Dovid Poston

[Music] Shalom Aleichem holy people peace be upon you from Jerusalem family is the capital of Israel now I'm kidding it always was and there's rot to share with God's help it always will be and we're very grateful to president Trump and whether you voted for them or not okay so we're very pleased with the news and we're going to name the first train station in Jerusalem after him apparently anyway hopefully you all get to use it one day okay so one of the sheets in English that I gave out it's chapter 47 but it's verse 28 believe it or not that's where the parsha begins hey Zama let me give you a copy Mike LaRussa is not here but we have one two three four five six people online so even though we're starting at at chapter 47 verse 28 28 should realize that the way it's written in the English is not the way it's written in the Torah now one of the one of these sheets I passed out on the on the internet was just an example it shows you that via he starts in the middle of a block it doesn't have an indentation in other words when you're sitting at a typewriter and you hit enter after writing a paragraph it begins a new paragraph correct you hit enter new paragraph then there's a thing called a tap on your typewriter I'm actually type where do you know what I mean your keyboard on your computer you hit tab and now you could preset your tab to X amount of spaces so there's a thing called an open parsha and a closed parsha an open parsha means that you hit the enter not you this has got the way God actually commanded Moses to write the total as if you hit enter and it's a brand new paragraph and then it doesn't matter how many spaces that are but there's a thing called a closed partial where there's exactly nine open spaces letter spaces it could be on the same line it could be on the next line but it's nine spaces that are between the last letter of the previous paragraph and the first letter of the next paragraph what's interesting is this is the only parsha that is not just closed because there's a little plenty of closed par shields but it's closed with no letter spacing okay I need those papers you don't think that's where I'm giving a should why I have made copies okay thanks so the example paper that I gave you shows you I don't know if you can read the Hebrew enough but the first part of the first verse would say the afiyah kobarid smith Ryan on the example page right is everyone following me not okay great so what we're going to deal with mostly is why is this closed now let me explain a little bit more history the Torah in its conceptual form was received by Moses at Mount Sinai but it was written most likely over a 40-year period let's say 39-year period from the time of the revelation until God tells Moses to write the 12 books actually 13 give one to each tribe and put one inside the Holy Ark the Ark of the Covenant so with moat when Moses was alive the people complained in early on that they had no water for three days and this was a this was a through a coda through this high level of understanding Moses understood what they wanted and desired was total so they were complaining they didn't have any water for three days so Moses instance suzay who called her the first rabbinical institution Moses instituted a public scripture learning session three every same Monday Thursday and Shabbat so there's no time there's going to be three 24-hour peers there's gonna be three days without a public Torah reading the thing is that they could have read whatever they wanted there was no set pattern like we have today these Parsi ought but for sure during the Hajim the festivals they did read the part of the Torah that related to the festivals now ezra who was the one of the last of the prophets he's the one who named the Parsee oat and he didn't divide up the Torah meaning exactly the way we got it for Moses the way it is in most cases that the Parsee o the weekly par Co the weekly Torah portion begins in a new paragraph usually it's open because it's a whole new thought there are some places let's say like that for example the Christians the Christian Bible meaning the Hebrew Scriptures according to the Christians there's number system we don't have a number system even though I just told you chapter 47 verse 28 that's not a Jewish concept that was instituted by it was accepted by the rabbi's during the middlee Middle Ages are literally twisted end of the Middle Ages when many debates were going on with Christians I don't know if you know famous debates happened and it was very hard to have a conversation with a Christian during a debate when he was quoting they developed these numbers so we accepted them for the sake of talking about the same verse in other words after Ezra divided up and said this is Bray sheath is where it begins where it ends let the thought Noah so the wait Jews discussed the Parsee oak or verse they would say oh it's in the third alley ah it's the second or third verse in the third Allah of parsha snog that's how they communicated the verses they didn't have numbers chapters and none and verses but anyway so we accepted upon ourselves so if we were up if it was up to us we would not have verse 28 in the middle it would have been verse one of parshas deity but it is chapter 47 verse 28 according to the Christians and we accepted it again for practical reasons similarly I see you should know that even though we're now in the tenth month and today was the tenth of peb it and it does say so in the in Zakaria that we it's a fast day it's a rabbinic fast day you should know that even rabbinic I mean this is one of the big things that Christians have a hard time with is that they think all rabbinic s-- are like not from God you know and we have a verse that clearly says when you don't know what to do anyway yeah go to the rabbi's you have to listen to them and then they're not talking about me they're not talking about these rabbis he's all about the same Hedren right the great court that is in Jerusalem or at least was you know at the time but we didn't have Jewish line that was by the the either the tabernacle and later on in Jerusalem by the baits and make - by the temple so so you had to listen to them because they had like a I mean that's the way it is you know that's the way the authority works where was I going with that so basically are we say Nissan is the first month and we write dates it's like a good biblical commandment not January January 1st is it's like forbidden for us to write 1 1 what's the year 2017 or there would be 2018 so when when forbidden the way the rabbi's understood since the Torah says this shall be the first months to you it's forbidden to call any other month the first month but because the uses a system and you screw everything up if you started messing with the system so the best thing when you write a check is not to write 1 1 2018 but to write the word January which is also counterintuitive because these are names of probably gods pagan gods but nobody believes in them so it's a joke so it's better to write the word January first than to write 1 1 2018 ok so we're ready to get going so now we have a little bit of background why not why we're going to discuss why but we see clearly in the scripture itself that this is closed it's a closed parsha and we're going to ask just become filled with familiar with these words it's called a parsha put 2 ha that means a partial it's open means you hit enter you got a new you know a new line we wrap our shuts to mop which means a partial is closed again this is very unusual because it has not nine letters which is normal but zero well let's just call one blank space one letter space so the give you a little bit of an idea why right you see right now on 28th says Jacob lived the land of Egypt 17 years and the days of Jacob the years of his life or 147 years so we now know he lived 147 years when he died but he lived 17 years while in Egypt okay now the reason I made all these fancy things on verse 28 because that's the verse we're talking about but look above verse 27 what we're going to basically see is there's a connection there's a Smith hootsuite who it means a juxtapose one verse is like connected in a way that it's like one single verse remember there's no punctuation in the to' you don't have compositional no periods right you don't have that so we're gonna see to read we're going to see how to read the verse it's going to make sense so we start off with a metric a famous measures that asked this very question via Fiat go bears miss Ryan yet Yaakov lived in Egypt as we now know 17 years llama partial Zeus to mom why is this Pasha closed and the measures gives three answers interestingly enough Rashi only brings down two so you can already see Rashi now in the in the source sheet so they gave you so it pretty much just explained in number one what is an open and a closed parsha and Rashi brings not only to the reasons we're going to mention so let's go through the Metris first and we'll see which one's missing from russia so it says the reason why the parshas closed according to the first opinion is because Jakob was miffed are at the beginning of the Shippuden okay the word an iftar means to pass on from this world Yaakov died and the she boot is the slavery of Egypt began okay it's very cursed it's very short in court Kurt we're gonna we're gonna broaden we're gonna try to understand what it means but I I know that mayor's listening and I want to ask mayor mayor if you could turn on your speaker for a second your microphone the word an iftar alright every Israeli knows the word an iftar means he died correct it doesn't mean it that's not what the word means but that's what it means so where am I going with this when someone is obligated in the commandments like we are right we all the post we're obligating the commandments we're called high of obligated the word an iftar actually means exempt it doesn't mean dead who's exempt from the mitzvahs who's exempt from the commandments of the Lord someone who doesn't have a pulse somebody's whose soul left their body the body is not obligated without the soul told because of the soul being in the body that there's a feud that there's an obligation once the soul leaves the body the body is Couture Couture means exempt okay mayor you got it the word and if guitar does not mean dead nobody dies well except for the most evil people but basically your soul lives on and that's gonna be also key but we're going to get to there we're only on the first line so the first reason the metrics game was because Jakob died now this is the answer to the question why is closed okay we're gonna see why the second answer it gives meaning as an alternative answer is because Yaakov desired he wanted to reveal the end of days meaning the time of the Messiah the time of the the summation the time of redemption the end of days which were properly in right now coming up - he wanted to reveal and they were closed from him it was masseuse min miss tom me Meno it was sealed was closed he wasn't able to reveal it we're gonna do a lot of discussion about that tonight and the third was it's gonna be really hard to understand but we will be discussing it kind of in the beginning of tonight's class it says that it was close from him all of the pains of the world all the difficult things of the world were closed off from him so the clea car tells us that's the the version of the Midrash now if you look in the Rashi on this verse which is number two that what the the third one is is removed it's not even there so with the clear car is basically going to do after he describes one and three is that one of the same and that's why Rashi left it out at least the way he will under he will present it to us will understand one two three is the same and that's why he deals with answers one and three first and then we get into the really the really juicy part of the discussion which is number three why did why is this why is the partial closed because Yahoo wanted to reveal the end days and Hashem closed it off and had good reason why it's it's not a good thing or his genius why it was best to close it off all right any questions at this point okay how are you doing good I just want to tell you some good news a good friend of mine I've been teaching him for the last 10 months he converted today and I'm getting together with him later tonight her it was doesn't work out tonight tomorrow night Saturday night and he's from Amsterdam and he will he's just crazy amazing guy and yeah okay let's go I'm just really happy for him by sharing your limousine so the clea car begins by telling us this is the whole story this is how it appears to me to explain since we find here in our parsha that it's closed but not the way that's normally closed throughout the torah because what you had here is a issue or a measurement that is less than any other closed parsha in fact here you don't have any room at all there's no space at all and he says that absolutely with with 100% intent Ezra the soap Ezra has sulfur we called Messner a sofa another reason why the word so far sofa means describe Ezra the scribe we've all heard of ed he was also a prophet he was probably there's some things he was Kamiya and some opinions he was Milwaukee okay but he was definitely a prophet he sat on the last of the same hedger we called that the great the men of the great assembly and they are the ones that wrote down how we're supposed to pray in other words Jews pray make all these blessings all day long which I'm very happy to at one point learn them with you because we talked about the the word Jew and what does it mean in Hebrew means the praise or the one who gives praise right cuz that's why Leia on her fourth child was so happy that she actually received more than her share that she called him yoohoo da out of absolute gratitude and gratefulness so it's really strange when you around Orthodox Jews everything they do they're making prayers over right I mean everything they eat every odd things they might see after going to the bathroom I mean we're just so happy and grateful that Hashem has given us or called health the ability to go to the bathroom I don't know if you know any older people or younger people any people with different kinds of illnesses not being able to go to the bathroom can cause toxicity and cause death so there's a lot of gratitude and the ability to have a healthy body but it's it's a blessing that talks about it at the heart and the lungs and it's not just the excrement it's a it's a whole mindset first thing we do mate wake up in the morning as we're so grateful that God gave us back our salt not everyone wakes up in the morning so he's giving us another chance another shot of life like I mentioned in the last week's part so anyway he says with absolute certainty Ezra has soaked their this decided this is where Yaakov the story of the Thiago begins why in order to what's the word to put into proximity meaning he's not the one who said there's no space God told Moses there's no space but he decided to be a tea octobe is going to be where we if he begins because he saw the reason that it belongs to the previous verse the previous verse and this verse is really one real verse long verse and what does he mean he's going to explain it if you look at the previous verse it says Israel several to collect notes Israel meaning the people of Israel we know that because is plural thus Israel settled in the land of Egypt and the region of Goshen they write it's in Hebrew they acquired property in it and they were fruitful and multiplied greatly and Yaakov lived okay so Yahoo would be adopted lived so we're going to talk a lot about life and what life's really about so he says he who had a compass of the Sun it's as if it's one verse but the metrics had three ideas so therefore Nicola who's motionless sha knows a load there's going to be these three concepts that were dharshan doubt that were expounded upon in the measures so the first lesson the first language that was darkened out dark means to expound upon like a measures since it's Yakko who sniffed our Yaakov I'll use the word passed on right passed off from this world to the next that's when the Sheep would began that's when the slavery began hey there's no grab this year actually you know my friend max converted today I remember yeah remember honey brah yeah yeah we have a few people online I'll give you a sheet yeah we're not that far we're like one two third paragraph down since Yaakov passed on the slavery began there's a real connection a key sure he sure means a knot there's a connection between these two verses in the following way since that verse said and it begins by telling us that yup that Israel settled in the land of goshen that teaches us a language of Yeshua the word settled now we've spoken about this before Yaakov himself sought to have a peaceful life a yeshiva the Shiva means a permanent settlement and as soon as he wanted that personal that permanent settlement the Rochas of Yosef meaning the Joseph was sold and he was disturbed a sadhaks life a righteous person's life you want to be righteous don't expect to live an easy life don't expect it okay because if it's gonna be a rough Sally you're gonna have a lot of opposition you're gonna have God's going to throwing you a lot of tests but so so this concept of having a sheep in general usually has a negative connotation here it's not gonna have such a negative connotation because the people of Israel we will see that it will in the end that the people of Israel the the Yaakov and the and the twelve sons were actually living quite well okay they had a life of shava and Manuka shava is peace malukas rest VAR cosmo and they had a land holding they owned property they acquired property that would mean they were land holders in the land of egypt and it says they were fruitful multiplied the year the improving human mode but when did these things happen only while Jakob was alive meaning that he was alive he himself felt very alive can you imagine I mean I I'm made me happy with my first grandchild soon but people who able to see their grandchildren and great-grandchildren you know I mean I imagine that brings a lot of life into their into their whole consciousness a 10-lane so and not only that if you go back so there was a settled yet while Yahoo was alive east and this was during 17 years it was only 17 years we're gonna ask why 17 years maybe you know some guesses to make up for the low that's gonna go on first so he was alive where his children were not at war with anybody they were settled in a peaceful way they were acquiring lots of properties right they had a land hoping and they were very fruitful multiplied well so this was all while Yahoo was alive in his merit that all this happened which implies MacLeod which implies that when he died so to the merit that he had also stopped and that's when the ship hood would begin Kilohana em own ueshiba shell shava meets odyssey boot when you're enslaved personal slaves cannot own property slaves don't live a life of Shaba Manuka they don't live a peaceful tranquil restful life I mean that's time to make the doughnuts you got to get up I don't know 4 o'clock in the morning and who knows till when you're gonna be bacon doughnuts well where's the beef you know you got to go out and slaughter some but um you know I'm saying like you're gonna constantly work and how much more so that they wouldn't be able to own any land because slaves are now that a land and wait to hear this one they weren't able to be food for a multiply and if you look on number three on the source sheet right that the Egyptians wanted to decrease the population of the Jews right they would increase the affliction and how would they look what they says this is Pharaoh speaking he said to his people behold the people that showed the people the children of Israel were numerous and stronger than we are right think I thought maybe they'd be a fifth column get ready let us field shrewdly in Hebrew it is myth hokhmah smartly write with wisdom with them lest they increase of course they they not only slaughtered our children later on but they increased the they increased the the slavery and the work it why lest they increase the whole idea of increasing the slavery was to decrease the population meaning even if it didn't decrease literally because they didn't start killing us yet but by working us so hard by the time it came home before you know forth and we wouldn't come over four o'clock in the afternoon at 10 o'clock at night be too tired to be with our wives and we're too worried about getting up on time to make the doughnuts the next day and so that was you could see the connection there that they were interested in not letting us increase and therefore increasing the slavery so even though we just said that the the merit of Yaakov is what kept the sheep food coming the slavery from coming and Suzy died the merit word off we can actually say the opposite but it's still saying the same thing was when Yaakov died that she put began and to cut it short I'll just tell you that how long did get sock in Abraham live one lived on during 81 175 and yahoo lived hundred forty-seven he didn't even come close so we're gonna say God took him out early why so that he would not see his children suffer so he says the beginning of this slavery was actually the reason for Yoko's death thank God shortened the life of Yaakov that he did not reach the age of his father's so he wouldn't see the slavery of his sons which would only paint him because there's a certain time now if you read I think number four and number four in the source sheets we know is very important we know that at the time that we called the Brit Bain atarime at the Covenant between the parts that would be Genesis chapter 5 verse 13 but this was the Covenant that God made with Abraham and he told them that his children will be strangers in a strange land right he says here you shall surely know that your seat will be strangers in the land that is not theirs and they will enslave them and oppress them for how many for four hundred years now all truth be told we were not in Egypt in 400 years so what's going on there's three numbers they're important to know that thirty years before this covenant took place sorry thirty years after this covenant took place Isaac was born okay so that was when eight he was 75 maybe 175 and his covenant took place he was 100 years old when he gave birth to Isaac since 25 so 70 70 years and then 100 years when he gave birth to Isaac so there's a time in the Torah that says you'll be enslaved for 430 years there's another place says 400 years like right here but in all truth we were only there for 210 years and why were we there only 210 years because we were at the base we were as low as you can get we were like idol worshipers and if we went down one more notch we went down 59 levels of impurity if we would have gone down one more notch to the 50th level of purity we would have never to be taken out so God moved everything forward that's how much he loves us and the word Purdue it says your you will go down to Egypt the word Purdue is actually the gallaccio of 210 years we were only there for 210 years but the idea over here is that the people knew that's part of the problem we're going to see later on when Hashem I'm sorry when we were good about to say when we're gonna we're gonna say that a Shem Tok or closed he didn't allow Yaakov to reveal the end we'll see that's gonna be an important part because if we all knew exactly when the Messiah was coming meaning in the long distance not in the short distance we might not have any motivation to do chula if we news coming in 400 years and we're still three hundred and twenty years left party we could relax right no so it's better off that the end is hidden so that we don't become lacks as you as you said but we're going to see that expounded on much later okay so where we left off we said now that's why it says if you grew who you made Charlotte loose you should know anytime it says and this is an hour verse it's actually 29 it says the time approached for Israel to die the ageru Eumaeus rail the moose the crew who means it came close okay anytime it says it comes closer with regard to death you know that the person felt short he didn't reach the age of his forefathers he died earlier okay ma'am we're learning a lot right so let's all tell us that anytime it says this is an aberration raba anytime it says crevo loci in the mammal tom he doesn't reach the age of his father's and the in this way we understand the proximity like we talked about that verse in 27 the verse of 28 is explaining it in a similar way as the first time first way we explained it but guess what that number 17 why 17 is mentioned how old was Joseph when he was sold he was 17 so this is nothing about youth though shamatha Auto Show Yosef that the that was the when Joseph was sold he was 17 years old so that was because to them garen Laham shallow using you should be shovel the Charlotte was right that they weren't able to live a peaceful happy life in Egypt except for those 17 years because they the 17 years that Joseph live with them before he was sold for peaceful but then everything turned to tourmalet okay now we're going to go to number three remember there were three ideas brought down the bedrooms number one because yahoo have died or will use lifts are do you know what the word nifty means to die but it doesn't really mean to die let move it is to die from the word picked or yes but or Pat or exact when someone spoke stops but some of you call death you know to physically die they're no longer obligated visitors the even secular Israelis not religious Jews they all understand NIF car means then and I have a feeling you know through because this is called Russian at college and Jews have a rougher kodesh the Holy Spirit there's no question they even though secular Israeli understands the depth that there's a thing called a soul that lives on it's just the body that's knit tired its plethora but the soul goes on anyway [Music] so we said now we're at the third day so we sit there three examples three things brought down and the men - one was since Jakob died the slavery began you can see the top three lines the second was because it was in order to keep or close out the ability for Yaakov to reveal the end days which we will talk about shortly but right now we're going to about number three which was he was closed off all of the paintings of the world so now we're going to talk about that floor only a few lines and then we're gonna talk about number two a lot since it was closed off from him all the pains of the world so alpha pshaw Hayek all you Muppet Sargeras Yaakov's life do you know how Yaakov described his life when he went down to Pharaoh for the first time can you imagine going in to see mr. Trump and the first thing he says to you is man how old are you but what does that tell you it means you look really old right you must look like really old so look at number five it's genesis forty seven nine yuck so Pharaoh Jacob said to Pharaoh meaning Pharaoh actually asked and how old he was and Jacob said the days of my years of my so Jordans are 130 years meaning he's 130 years when he went down to Egypt and then he describes the days of the years of my life had been few and miserable I mean you know and they have not reached the days of the years of the lives of my forefathers in the days of their so Jordans here and he knows when he brew you may name the goo ray right slow sheeple not China they were math burro in they were few and bitter few and rock people they just were not good the opposite of good so if that's how God was like was when he first went down how do you think the next 17 years are if take that last verse of 27 and connected with 29 of 28 read it again right Israel settle in the land of Egypt in the region of Kanade they acquired property first they were settled acquired property they were fruitful and multiplied greatly and Yaakov lived this was real and kind this was life friend and guess what he forgot all about his past meaning those seventeen years were so good that region lived in the next part where it says the years of his life were 147 we're gonna see that it means like as if the 130 bad years didn't even happen the 17 years were so good that it was a little afraid with my friend he was retro actively all his life was good as if because of those last 17 years being so great 147 years were great ok let's see in the words so we already saw up when he came down right Genesis 47 verse nine miserable 130 years nevertheless the gorilla Shaba the increase of this peacetime Shiloh coke chef assumption that happened during the 17 years shiroi Ashima bun of ashabi saw his own children living in such a peaceful fashion and in the air cause of pirates and acquiring so much property and the year proved a year ago and having so many children michiga food it became forgotten from him he met new coal have sorrow sores on as if they never were this is the third reason why it's a closed partial because what did the third statement say who's close to offer them all the pains of the world okay as if it's one verse the whole reason it's a close parsha is to show us that it's really like one verse for those 130 years not even considered at all days of his life is only 147 they worried years of real living and in fact those hundred and thirty years were plenty of pains but now the my Freya retroactive turn the page ox Optima Freya Nick Shizuku auction a crab all those years were considered as if he really lived as those were the years of his life according to this that it was closed offer him all the pains that have been in the past as if they never were as if all his life was in the Imam the Raven named ah means like the word naive Mayim is nice I mean nice is not very descriptive especially if you live in England they criticize some merit us Americans because you savings nice nice doesn't mean anything to them they have to have these real descriptions of everything but ok so he says can you hyoscyamine the rate of the a ravine also pleasant there was this nice pleasantness all of his ears because in truth really Yosef what's alive as soon as he found that Yoshi was alive that was my hiya you know it means macaé it actually sounds like well Hebrew high means life Messiah it causes life it caused him to be revived and that's why the words be a Fiat Cove Jaco lived is connected to the previous verse and then he just mentions the reason why you Rashi left out that third reason because he doesn't really see the difference between the first reason and the third reason it's really all the same thing and anybody that really contemplates about it will understand okay so now we're going to talk about the second reason which is what I think the most fascinating thing and evening and we said that the second reason was that he wanted to reveal the end days and it was closed off from him okay anybody have anything to say at this point I want to interject did we lose Sharon I think so okay so just to repeat the the second mentioning in the metric was that he wanted to reveal the end days and was closed off from him but it doesn't just say that it says witnessed outcome Amanda Knox Trina was removed from him the divine presence in other words we talk about the Sriman divine presence that's how we're able to have Ruach Hakodesh that's how we're able to connect with the infinite right to see like Adam Rishon saw from one end of the world and the universe to the other end of the universe to the 36 supernal lights and we light on Hanukkah just to remind us which is in the Torah it's embedded in the time okay so he says because he wanted to answer a question now you have to get the question hopefully it'll bother you once we realized oh my gosh it's like staring right in front of us it says Yaakov lived in the land of Egypt 17 years you're gonna tell me we didn't know that it's so simple to figure it out anybody with math a simple understanding of math could figure this out how do we know didn't he just say when he came down to Pharaoh 130 yeah and he died a hundred forty-seven so minus 130 from 147 so why does it have to tell me this enough we have to ask come on it's not necessary so he says what is it trying to tell us by having the first telling me lived in Egypt for 17 years okay a dying Lilia doctor shall he live and survive cheves reshawna well I didn't know that anybody could do the math we know that mean I was reading what he says here but and when he went before Pharaoh he says my life is under 30 years so why would we need to tell us that he lived in Egypt for 17 years because we already got that same those seventeen years we're really living now a little history lesson said behave around the it socco's all the emos while this type of discussion or language used by either Abraham Isaac or any of the other mothers he's going to tell us that it was with absolute certainty that it comes to teach us that the Shema the divine present left from him since it said earlier on now if you look in 45 27 which is number 6 when the children of young Yaakov went up to let Yaakov know that his son Joseph was still alive and they told him all of Yosef words that he had sent in and he saw the wagons that Yosef had sent to carry him and the spirit the actual rock of Yaakov was revived so we see this key Ruach Jakob was re-live Lari under oath where's real Ivan's relived three vitalized his spirit was by the way he was now huh yeah but it was more than that it was returned because the skin had left from him when Joseph was sold when Joseph was sold that's why he was living a very miserable life of those 22 years I mean perhaps even before that he was not exactly living it up either he had a hard life you imagined working for a woman seven years and then being tricked I mean having a brother named a sob and all the trials and tribulations and running away I mean is he he had a very rough life so then when he when Joseph was sold the Shema the Ruach Hakodesh left because he had no idea was going on anybody even gets up new Yitzhak was part of this the the oath not to let Yaakov know we can understand if people are really in the sorrow then Shekinah can leave you only profits with simcha can have prophecy if you're depressed you cannot be a cannot experience prophecy supplies to be Pacifica you hear this guys I want you to know there's another story you have 98 curses in the Torah the last curse you would think this is the way things work we wish gone astray we have 19 blessings 18 19 blessings the last blessing is shown when we are when we bench right we bless our grace after meals last were to show up many of our prayers end with show up because that's like the ultimate out of the curses you know what the last curse is you've had everything and you were not Pacifica and that's why so in other words the worst sin this is it's not just my opinion the worst sin mary here is the worst sinners you can have is not to be the simpler to serve Hashem with joy you have to serve God right with passion and love okay okay so we see in that number six that's chapter in Genesis 4527 that Jakob was revived so so those last 17 years he had this this rule ha'qodesh he had the skinner with him but guess what happened should pay Russia okay and in the end the explanation of that verse is that the the Shekinah came and rested with him and you know that from that says Rock Yakko now you might have thought that the rock rested with him all the days until his death no right before his death right now in the Afiya code there's a crime only his physical life but not the roof he lost the rock at this point before he was able to what's the word that revealed the end days because when Yakov came to Egypt gave of the Mitzrayim syuko of a lone Ruach ocean it's tough with me men watch the enemy odd I'm not sure when it was released but he does say in 46 30 that would be number eight you can read the rash on that the square of doctor was revived the skin which had separated from him because his grief meaning the grief of the sale of Yosef rested upon him once again now number eight Israel said to Joseph I will die this time he actually says to Yosef I will die this time amudha ha ha after they wrote day after I see your face so what does it mean after this time it really means a second time I will die again I mean I got a mite I got my life back so look in Rashi I will die this time and simple meaning is in the target renders if I should die this time I would be consulted that's shock but the Midrash ik interpretation is however I thought that I would like two deaths one in this road and the world to come because the she had left me and I thought that the only one blessed be he would hold me responsible for your death now that I you are alive I will die but once okay so in pain Miyata a mullah notes avoir with salvos Muhammad Mita so immediately right now he was gonna die he wanted to what's the word give his last will and testament and bless the children so we're now getting into the whole blessing of the tribes and at the time he was going to bless the tribes he was going to tell them the end and the end times what's going to happen like in our generation right we're living in the end times a good chance every day gets closer closer so we certainly hope so and after we get finished reading this you'll realize you'd better be hoping it is so he gathered everyone to read the last one test before his death but Hashem was concerned lest he revealed the end days and that's why God removed from him the Shana the Divine Presence but we don't know why but they lead down a maze of town we don't know the reason why the stock Academy matter why the yes screen it was removed okay cold alkane ball part partial system and this is why the parsha is closed why that there's no space to the verses between the verse of Yakko Israel settled in the land of goshen since it was well known whoa ready for this it would it's well known ok you and I didn't know this till the redness right but it's well known that a great amount of damage will be caused from knowing the end because all the earlier generations they knew that the redemption would not take place in their days it set for hundred years so if you haven't done with those generations if he told them you have another two hundred ten years left or to whatever two ninety one night then whatever it is that they were lazy they went to jeweler they say I'll do it in the end of my life if I live that long it's what he says well you thrushes panache em that once you know that it's beyond your lifetime you will no longer seek out a relationship with God listen to the words lo you'd throw shoe at panache em you would no longer seek to the face of God lavaca shout let gula to request and desire the redemption the Altima right all that it's worth because you say what's the use what's the point live life and be merry tomorrow you'll die I'm not gonna sacrifice for this it's a big sacrifice so already then don't tell him the end because if they knew the end then it wasn't the foreseeable future there would be a giving up hope and then a bad situation yeah okay see close a book called the akkada who mentions this Meldrick and he says that when Yaakov wanted he desired he sought out to reveal the end days God God said this is a quote from Isaiah 43 22 which is number 10 on your shirts or sheets but you did not call me Oh Jacob for you we read Emilio is really only told it the first part doesn't matter God does not want the Jewish people to be in a position when they forget about the relationship it's all about the relationship with God can you imagine it's what it's all about just like husband and wife is about the relationship with us and God it's all about the relationship God wants us he squeezes us says by Saudi came they have arms like why he desires the prayers we talked about this before he desires the prayers of the righteous it's all about the relationship rabbi Kelemen he speaks about when he was in Harvard University doing a thesis on comparative religion but really bothered him about the Orthodox choses you know the only way think that they were there moving their lips right there claiming the only way God's gonna hear them if they move the lips isn't God my God who knows with everything what's in your heart you know and for 10 years he pondered the question and then he saw three women walking down the street one day and they were all talking at the same time how could anybody be listening it was all about the relationship anyway I hope you get that God wants the relationship he wants us to call out but this Isaiah 43 is a criticism but you did not call out to me Oh Yakko so what happens when you know the you give up up shallow I hate the high South Cody they were not concerned about God keep me in tears ooh you shot NASA exec because anybody knows the end it's causing or it reveals this end who caused such a great damage they're not going to call to him not going to request his to know his face any of the earlier generations so Yaka we know and he's talking about them they requested a permanent settlement they per they requested a a settlement in a permanent way in a foreign country like Egypt where's the best place for a Jew to live in the Holy Land in Israel we need to be here but when you start building and permanent you know quite properties and building these huge palaces and you have no desire because you got the comfy the life you got target you know you got Dunkin Donuts 7-eleven whatever you know what I mean you got the comfy life over there this is very bad for the Jew the Oakland a piece of art the art so Tom could Kosh I mean to actually live like permanent residents in these other countries and this is the important word mayor who can MIT Josh I'm men huh cool ah and to give up hope to forfeit to lose all hope of any Redemption all your whole life is about building up the client properties in this world or at least in the grew the outside of Israel okay that's why sat down the Fatima Shannon that's why God closed off and sealed the end cockades a thorough the end of ends the the last days condition before door the door so that every single generation is your vacuous Venetian should seek out the face of God to know God that dahveed Malcolm and these are very important words and dove its kingdom who doesn't want to return who doesn't want the machine och anybody doesn't the chakras basically given up hope we need you know we need to do Allah we need a Redemption we need salvation but guess what he also doesn't want us to know you've actually autoshow VBR to saw me he doesn't want us to live amongst the they're not Jews in their country but you have a Coptic meaning it does want us live in the countries of this Dodgers the you macaque in case you are totally but rather we should be anticipating the end and the Salvation constantly always tache Pavel NATO me to zoom and soybean Nina but this is the clean car races 400 years ago he said but because of our sins this meda this action Buddhist character trait is very common amongst us the field was marginal catchment did you know time now he was talking about when you tell them what it is that's already bad and when you don't know what it is supposed to be good but guess what 400 years ago we didn't know what it was and Macomber kohlrabi made my ami aretz so many people they are so ignorant Jews are ignorant ohmigosh mean the Archos I mean they live amongst the Gentiles meaning in prophecy was the rapid prog you know that European Jews ends were well boy Neil and bottom swooning and they build big palaces with a shoe be very important properties the shell of volume stoves the last forever have bin Yannick I am the whole building with would last forever the see bazoo little of Edom door Shima Spanish am because of this reason they're never gonna be seeking out the face of God they're too comfy the whole egg with their whole heart live vml arts up to come back to the land they've given up and we see this today in America I'm sorry to say whoever is watching this al cana kurdish bar who that's why God was MIDI from shaman he left them there I don't want to tell you what all the prophets have to say but we always say negative properties don't have to happen okay if you need to understand what that means the prompter comes to warn us and to guide us to get back on the path so if a prophet comes and tells you a good prophesying that doesn't come he's a false prophet and off of his head but if he comes and tells you these dire these predictions and they don't come true it could be that remember he came to warn you to do Trueba to repent this shift and there was a shift there was a conscious aware awakening and the truth is there's no guarantee that he's a false prophet if he negative profit so negative properties don't have to happen clear everybody just nod okay am i boring anybody yet okay go ahead not so and according to this proposal we've spoken about so far the verse in 27 that Israel dwelt settled in the land of goshen is speaking about the guilt of Israel we're talking about something negative a sin the guilt of Israel that they requested to Beto shebeen they wanted to be these permanent residents and with a land holding that's not even theirs yeah you know we come to this room here to leave it all behind and Vanessa's a bola and of course the damage will come to them because the fee shot case goes miss Ryan how you don't know that because they knew they weren't going to be released for another 400 years or perhaps right with the Qatari calculation only 210 alkane hodo euros he'll be shown him that's why the OSHA rolia generations which knew and with absolute clarity that their own days they would not be redeemed they sought out all these things that are mentioned in the verse that's why the pus that comes together to tell us the ciacco Yaakov to teach us that this nesic that this damage that came out as a result of the those generations because they were then the end was known to them that's what actually caused Yaakov to live but not to have the Ruach he didn't have the Rauf at the end came Yaakov Levada Hayek I was on the Yaakov who was alive but now with the block cadential illegally I played soccer on the Ruach was removed so you cannot really reveal the the end days the look shallow you the path Shaykh Nez exhibit roastin this damage would not spread even beyond that generation if those they knew it they would have passed it down right the Jews have a great method of passing transmission of rural Torah we would cease to exist if we all knew the end of days exactly ok ok guys we have a little bit more to go if you want to continue with me it says that 29 it says the time approach resulted I so we call this song for y'all so he said to please if I adopt paper in your eyes please place your hand under my thigh that is the important part and do kindness and truth with me please do not bury me in Egypt so it says came close the days of Israel to die so there's a measures it says there's some days we'll call the negative that our days of death and there's some days where there there's no death what does that mean the whole time that it's I being a righteous person is in this world we find out that the whole world has some blessings because of him there is some tranquility and and peace that will exist in the world while the sabich's still alive and when he dies those the peace diminishes and his buckle and void and it's because of his death so it says the whole time Yahoo was alive that there was no slavery but for Yaakov himself my readings read over Yahoo God's know he never died Yaakov actually never died it doesn't use the word death we already said that right it says he he came close to him to die and we read that as he didn't reach the age of his father's but when he does die it says that expired in not an even Hebrew it's neva which is like he sighed exhaustion he went to sleep he went to sleep meaning his physical body stopped functioning but his soul has gone after patients addict Nicaragua Mikoto even though a righteous person is called alive when they're dead and I've gotta get ready to keep this a evil person in his life is called dead so a righteous person when he's dead he's alive and they evil person when he's alive he's dead so I'm gonna read the verses again I hope he sure sounded Nikolai with me so so even though a righteous person is called alive in his death nevertheless it mentions Yakko specifically because we dharshan about him that he was so connected with his sons right to called the twelve sons of course Israel doesn't matter here's another name doctor of the twelve sons of ya'qub he he the person is really a Co is connected with his twelve sons so as long as his twelve sons are alive meaning us he's alive just like any father with his children we see in a second so because there's strong connection with his own seed Masaru behind just like his seed is alive a loop of time so - he is alive just like any son is a portion a portion ain't a feeling of his father so to any uber uber Safinaz a fetus is just a limb of the and the father I lost my fields Arabic I am and as long as the seed is still alive meaning generations later as don't make even gum who became so - it's like the father's alive meaning to say he's actually a part of him part of him is still alive so it's mentioned specifically by often because his bed so to speak was complete meaning he had the twelve sons and they were all righteous they were all righteous coulombs Arif I Roth Pauline they were all activist for God I'm only been Russia but someone who gives birth to an evil person he's called it his life death while he's alive he's called dead as aimed bara nozaki Abba the son does not give any credit there's no credit to the father he died oh the bald man I did the eoq can you don't it's as if he's is worthy of excommunication who has McRoy mace okay he he's considered dead while he's alive anybody's excommunicated I know it sounds really like a rough thing there is such thing as excommunication and the person cannot be counted in the minion you can't join a prayer a quorum of 10 people for prayer they won't count them in can't marry you chose it off to them you can't be in business with them you can't be friends with them the whole point is to do true or not it's not a punishment saying your ally not nothing with you ever you're out now until you the truth oh so you come back so it doesn't really have much effect today but in the old days when everyone knew each other small towns yeah so he says eighty car Kayleigh probably cry so how is that possible when do you have a son who's evil how's that reflect house house you alive so we have ad Russia now I think it's number 12 notes number I love 11 says have not heard in each of the David slept with his father's and that yo up the commander of the army had died right he shall have dahveed email Tom dubbed slept with his father's but he make y'all seed of it was it Sadiq does it say he died no it says he slept with his father's it does this mean he slept with his father's it means he left the baby he was expired he went to bed sleep hey you know I mean like Paul stopped but his soul went on and yo of who was evil it says he died so you can see clearly a difference someone righteous people do not die they live on forever and rush i''m are even dead father alive laughs okay so I just read the last thing he says he Lobby his cue the dubbing shall even be yog Mesa why does it mention dogged went to sleep while your died because the feesh had of it he knee up and sadly como so cuz Devon left over a righteous son like him slow mo na Shane came to yog which is not the same case by judging your becomes in him up wish he would be Akko that's why it says Jakob went to sleep La Mesa nemrud dagh fella yummy okay and that's really all I prepared in terms of the parsha but we could talk about anything you want you know anybody have any questions I think I put I went to sleep mer [Music] who who killed your wife I think David had him killed right now let's see 2nd Kings is it gonna say it and Dovie did not want Absalom killed this was dubbing son even though he was evening even though option was evil dubbed did not want to have him killed we're looking in first Kings 11 21 the other explanation I can see he was Sauron Safa because he was a military man this shouldn't be a problem let's see yeah I'll look up I'll try to find the more about this verse if you look like a microscope Douglas it might have a explanation on that verse okay so that's a good question I'm going to look it up anything else yeah are you a subscriber to my youtube channel so we don't go up oh yeah much okay so it's just givin em why I be Oh neh with my logo you subscribe but even if you don't just go in there every time and look for one of the you know but you killed your very commanded by a king so right yeah I mean that's okay but why because he could use he killed Absalom because David did not want Absalom killed and he killed him Saddam had had him killed so he was evil he went against the king but we're gonna I'm gonna look it up it up better okay okay I'm getting I'm getting clear for your mayor anyways so you Bo net on YouTube I've been little about learning a different class I think last week I didn't upload it and I think put it together you know I I have to tell you me like I did this piece a few years ago I try to do a little bit each year sometimes I go back and I see things I never saw before you know like a lot but felt like oh just that one little boy a lot so I'm giving this class on Shabbat morning to a synagogue I only have 45 minutes with them and we spent like an hour and a half so I have to like cut it real short but then they're there because they want to learn the Hebrew but they also know a lot more right off to translate everything but every little will get the main point let's figure out what parts actually like sum up and then spend only a little bit of time in the Hebrew with them the mayor mentioned he wanted to learn let's say more like haha batter I didn't know if anybody else is so only Michelle and her husband run on but I imagine Sharon wouldn't be against it I guess Heather probably wouldn't be against it the only question is more like so let's say the details of how how a Jew lives his life like blessings for example a sings we can spend like 15 minutes out of the I mean sometimes we spend two hours so I don't mind maybe if there's a book here that deals with that I can no problem can start today or start next week but maybe it's better if I give you the source sheets and just spent like 15 minutes each sect each time just starting off with some ideas of hello ha but it's up to you guys so I'll tell you I'll tell you one thing we wash our hands in the morning okay so there's different reasons why so do we know why the the sharpener explains why the the commentators explain why so why do we wash our hands in the morning so [Music] yes so I'm gonna tell you there's four reasons the Gomorrah the the missionary brings down three but I break down I break them into four reasons so you cannot make blessings with dirty hands so if I scratch anywhere in my body that's normally covered that's where sweat would accumulate so that's already considered dirty or touching a private area you and you come out of the shower is still considered so you can't make blessings so when you're sleeping we say that your hands are all over your you're not conscious of what you're touching you couldn't be scratching who knows what you don't mean like us to say your armpit you know you're scratching in the middle of night it's okay so you have to wash your hands so that's one reason to wash hands another reason is because when we go into the temple if we were the high priests right and they're the codeine you cannot do the service without washing your hands and your feet so our purpose in this world is to be priest serving God so just like we're about to enter just when you wake up in the morning you're entering twenty you know whatever twenty hours or hello I only sleep for hours but let's say you know whatever it's 1618 hours of life those hours of life is service to God so you're like a priest serving God okay third reason which is it's called a briea had the shop you are born again you are brand new being just created to the serve God so that's why I think that the the second and third are really the same but I divide them up a little bit because it's different language one is a brief of the Shah and the other one is like a Cohen serving in the temple so Breanna the Shah is a brand-new being you're just like I don't know breaking out of the cocoon out of the womb and that's it you're born again you got the next 18 hours to serve God but it's a different language and the fourth reason which women were spookier Michelle was pointing out now when one sleeps the experience we call 160th of death now we know that when someone dies they actually become tula that's why we have the red heifer and everything and if anybody actually goes to a cemetery when they leave the senator they have to wash their hands there's a so when someone they're basically five levels of herself and the highest level of our soul actually departs that's what's going up and in the morning it reenters our body so anytime holiness is a vacuum that Touma that impurity always comes so now that the soul comes back and forces out the Tula the Touma leaves your body through your fingertips meaning it leaves for the extremity so since it leaves through that and it leaves a little bit of residue you're just washing off those last bits of residue I know that sounds spooky so you're not supposed to touch any opening like wounds your eyes any openings in your body as soon as you wake up you're supposed to wash your hands before you you know touch your eyes or any other openings in your body because of the residue of the rock rock this evil spirit whatever that means but that was that only entered as a result of the vacuum that was now another great thing my rabbi told me is when you go to sleep think of Torah think of the greatest questions you have because what happens is that higher level of your soul departs the ghosts are a little truth there's a world up there there's a world of truth that it enters and then when it comes back into your body it's not she's not saying that you will be consciously aware of the answers but it's at least subconsciously you have go to sleep with a question of Torah right go to a question with a great question and at least subconsciously if not conscious you'll you'll be able to act on it or perceive things differently during the day the following day so there's a lock up a locker they once you're not even walked down let I looked down at Moses a 6 to 8 feet so you have a little bucket by your bed with a little cup to wash your hands with and these water should be thrown down the drain they shouldn't be used for anything else I know that there was a famine or whatever I think use then uses minimal amount of lure as possible the moon want to use the better today we have running water so it's not our problem but back in the day you had to take it out of the well and whatnot people were you know exact but it's best to go all the way to your wrists for now what do you do I mean I'm left-handed but let's assume everyone does the same thing you take your you fill it with your right hand because the right hand is mercy and you did that so we're going to strong in and that's what you're going to do the missile with and what does it mean you take it and then you pass it to the left and then you pour there right before your right first now when you wake up in the morning it's different than the moon wash for bread or for other things so in the morning we wash alternatively three times we start with four on the right then the left three times the right again the left right left three times and that all has to do with getting rid of this rock rock this the remnants of the Spirit that might be on you for washing for bread is the same might be you taking your right you pass it to left you first porn your right but you pour two times on your right according to how about three times and then you change hands and pour it two times on your left but what do they do in Italy see the three times but everyone agrees a minimum of two times but in the morning is for sure three times I know the things but I don't know the reason behind yeah so let me just digress a little bit that's why we're going to learn last week I mentioned certain things that we never really got to speak about I think is very important and Chris don't leave because it's very important you hear this all the blessings that happen all the blessings that come to a man in his house is on account of his wife did we come and kind of started speaking about this a little bit and I don't know so this is going to get a little x-rated okay but why is a it says that a woman is called lefm a woman is called dread that's because all the feasts all the one when we eat it's called zhan it's right the bear pitama zone its sustenance all the sustenance comes through the woman who's bred a a prostitute is called a zona it's this man is Miss placing and he will go hungry he will search for bread of midnight find this person who's putting his son he's spending his own money that he should be spending on his wife her food he's miss placing and he's using a prostitute and it says anybody who's this is the secret of Joseph why he was so successful remember he said look at my circumcise my circumcision I have kept the covenant clean because you sold me to Egypt was the which is the most promiscuous place the lowest place on earth when it comes to sexuality but I kept myself guarded I married it to be the provider the provider the Viceroy the one who was able to save seven years of plenty and in the end because Jakob came down there was no there was no family for more than two years it stopped when he got down but we talked about this last time that right would he go to as much details I just I just did that all of the Providence all the sustenance all of the blessings in a home comes as a result of direct result of the peace between the husband and wife and the way that the husband respects and honors his wife then he'll see a reflection of the Providence coming and God forbid when he disgusts he's disgusted with his wife which is a sign not of the opposite of peace of elm and he goes for the bread outside the house then he'll find a comp extreme poverty it's like a not just a punishment we talk about punish me take an egg and meda remember all these measure for measure we call punishments not punishments they're signs to wake one up that they're on the wrong path so a righteous person will pick up the signs and then we'll do repentance and truly the evil person of course evil the word Rasha Rasha means noise this he's so distracted with noise he's like not having a not having a good day he's not having a real intimate relationship with God and too many distractions and he will he'll probably won't pick up the message and will be punished and see it as a punishment but the righteous person will amend his ways and do truth anyway I just wanted to tell you that Chris and you know whatever I just wanted to share make sure you got that in because that's an important lesson that we left off from last week okay next week Misurata share okay they cui so much you love me for our holy brother and sisters should I show I don't have trans I don't have to turn this thing off [Music]
