Bronstein. Um I want to thank the RV for
giving me the opportunity to come today
because uh anyway I would have to come
visit him because
so anyway I was to come. So once I'm
here already um thank you for the
opportunity to say some detra but the MS
um yadid rea Bronstein is a very very
close uh you did of mine and even though
he's not allowing me to do this but I
I'm compelled als
to just to say my heartfelt um
admiration for the RV if I ever have a
shila
whether ina or hashkafa
uh But mayor is my address very often
and whatever the Indian is it's
to be able to give me proper direction.
So when we wish the my humble bra for
continued.
So Ronin asked you to speak a little bit
about the Indian of
um instead of maybe
asked me maybe some
is some words to maybe inspire us a
little bit and give us a little bit of a
feel and for the kaducasim and the
opportunity of the final day of sukus.
We know that the suko in general has
many dimensions to it as all mitzvah do.
And in fact writes in the kak that one
of the primary functions of the sukah is
to give us an insight into tamatra.
In fact the kak brings eight ramosim
that we're able to see in the suka to
help us appreciate the mitzvah of
tamatra. One of them being says the
dimensions of the suka. Aside from the
fact he says that it's three walls which
is the ice bay like the Tory begins with
the ice bay and aside from the fact that
it's
aside from the fact that it's
but says 10 * 7 is 70. The suka teaches
you
writes in the kak.
So I want to speak about one aspect of
the lulaf.
This is quoted by the from
that lul is gamatria.
Lul is 68.
What is the significance of the fact
that lul is gamatri?
And especially the say that on hashba
one is supposed to untie the lulv in an
where when you shake the lasha you're
shaking more the lulv than any of the
other meaning in general you're shaking
all dal equally there's no to shake the
lul more than the but on the say to
untie the lul
where the kn is
So what's the Indian da to shake the lul
on more than any other day?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but if there's
one day on the on the calendar that's
gaining more momentum than any other
day, you know, if there's one day
that's, you know, really gaining steam,
I think it's Hishana. You know, when I
was a kid, what's Hishana? You take the
Hishana and you pulverize it. You know,
you beat it to a pulp. And what what
more that more what more do you do?
Okay, you dive in more. It's aima.
But if there's any day on the calendar
that's gaining more momentum as the
years go on, more people are into
Hashana, there's more more people
staying up, more people trying to try to
uncover what is Hashana all about. I
think Hashaba is the day that as the
years pass,
it's gaining more momentum. Correct me
if I'm wrong. So what's the
why is it that as the years go on
so to speak is picking up more and more
esteem
what do we need for
what is is something lacking in yam
kipper is is are we missing something on
yum kipper what more do we need yeah yum
kipper should have done it we fasted the
whole day we had the fiveuyim what are
we lacking on yum kipper that that all
of a sudden now at the end of sukus we
We need we need
so there's an amazing um approach of
and say
and says as follows
we have two every day every day we bring
two carbon
why do we need two
themed as a previous night and the shall
It's the same thing with
there two that a person could do an a
you could do an aila
do you know why the Torah doesn't
discuss
because we have two days of kapar we
have yum kipper which is a
and we have which is that are done. Now
says of the garra tells us that if
somebody is mumipper
it's not necessarily a good sign. In
fact,
one of the goim
was nifer
and writes that
was nifer
zaf a time of anger and wants to know
why did why did he have to say it was a
time of anger so says because the garra
says if somebody's nif on yam kipper
it's not necessarily a good sim because
the kapor of yam kipper comes
and not is not incrementally you need
to be and therefore if somebody was a so
how could it be
therefore
it was it was a time of anger that's the
only explanation for how a could have
been on so
on
says the objective of of
And what's the purpose of
that's why we have two
and
says
most people do of course during the day
I mean what could you possibly do at
night I mean who could who could be
there's nothing to do the lights are off
you know what could what could could
Imagine did anybody do during the night?
No, of course not.
Therefore, the Torah does not mention
because it's not really that significant
because very few that are committed
during the but are done during the day
and therefore the Torah speaks at length
about.
So it could be you could suggest
possibly
that in
people do do
you know with the advent of the light
bulb and
technology that it's possible people
have figured out ways to be bala in fact
I think everybody would admit that Today
most
are doing bala during the day hal people
are getting up during the day are even
walking around but bala probably ruba
duba the ruba of the so is it is it
possible that the significance of rabba
is taken on much more importance much
more significance because what was once
relegated to not even being discussed in
the Tory because who would even
during the day but where
could be is as important and more
important than ever. So with that hakda
let's try to explain uh the current
importance of
and the connection to we know the of is
none other than
for those who do say
I remember when I was I had this to go
to
Victor Miller
I lived on M and 31st has used to walk
to
Ocean Parkway without a 45minut walk and
uh so they once asked of Miller does he
sayen
he says he doesn't say anything that's
found in the except for because his wife
wanted him to say it but uh okay so many
don't say but
is that every night of sukus we have a
special guest and for those who do say
it tonight we're going to say
What is the connection between David Mal
the Mashiah and Hashan Rabba? So let's
start in the beginning. There was a man
by the name of Adam Harish and gave him
one mitzvah
said here you see this tree you could
eat all the trees in the garden but
don't eat this tree. This is the only
one you can't you can't eat
says no problem. And then the P says
that showed Marish the history the
chronology of all mankind for all of
history. And the says andious alf
of
Hashem showed on a man by the name of
David who is destined to live three
hours.
this person has no remedy. What's going
to be with this person
says don't b my business. This is what I
decided. What are you asking about my
so says how long am I going to live? So
says you're going to live a thousand
years. So says is there PayPal and you
know could we make
could you give the gift in heaven?
says why not mali all so says I'm I'm
bequing I'm granting
this David 70 years of my life okay and
the medish goes on to say that Adam gave
David a number of gifts number one he
gave him 70 years gift number two he
gave him malus Adam had malus he gave it
to David gift number three he gave him
Shira
don't think you could just come to shul
and you could say okay I want to sing to
the you have no right to sing
doesn't just listen to song you have to
be authorized to sing was authorized to
sing and he gave that gift to
the the
sing was legislated by David and says I
want that but you can't just make up
your own songs okay
in fact says
that when gave those 70 years
and he said the following words he says
you've made me glad
with your handiwork
who is the
only one person
Thank you for allowing to give me 70.
Yes. So Adam started off with a th00and
he went down to 930. Adam got David got
70. In fact in the par says shim
shekelesh
is the sh that Adam gave David H. Okay,
very nice.
So, Adam really was supposed to live
a,000 years and it was knocked down to
930 because he gave away 70.
We have to understand two things. First
of all, Hashem told Marish the day he
eats from the tree, he's going to die.
But he didn't die. He lived another 930
years. Furthermore,
why was David destined only to live
three hours? Why was that his fate?
So says in the Ali
that David was not just the recipient of
the gift of adishan but as we know David
was literally the reincarnate the gilgo
of Adam Marish. In fact says Adam is
Adam David Msiah.
And even though Adam was supposed to die
the day he ate from the which according
to the medish he did because
was sh but nevertheless
still fulfilled his word literally
because even though Adam was not going
to die on the day that he ate from the
tree but David Hamelik was going to die
immediately that's why David was
destined to live for only three hours to
be the fulfillment of what
But let's think about the lifetime of
David
because says that
specialized in the following three
things. What do we say every we say
is the paragon is the semol
represents life. What else did
not sleep during the dayish? He didn't
sleep 60 horse breaths which is by the
way a big is how long is
because there are those who are not to
sleep that amount of time during the
day. So some say uh 3 minutes some say
30 minutes some say 3 hours
would be after how much time a person
sleeps during the day will they have to
wash. So according to most piskim I
believe the kit
it's 30 minutes. So if somebody sleeps
during the day 30 minutes so they would
have to wash there is a even three
minutes. Okay. However, the beer brings
down that uh the Arizal was not mbed on
shabas. The Arizal would sleep on shabas
even uh three hours. That's the brings
down and there are many people who are
makid on this particular
the
but
did not sleep during the day.
So
didn't sleep and is going to usher into
the world the era of what's the says
because brought mis into the world
brought death into the world. So David
who is the recipient of the life of
Marish his was in bringing me to the
world and therefore the the hallmark of
David is
did not sleep because sleep is a 60th of
and of course is going to usher into the
world the times of
so really
David should live forever. Elm, what
could he do? He's only given 70 years
because of eating from the
so I happen to be uh looking at a safer
and the safer quoted one of my favorites
for the
but I already see that uh it's being
quoted elsewhere. We know
knew that he was going to be on Shabas.
So theam uh
says tell me exactly when. So says I
don't give out that information but I'm
I'm going to let you know you're going
to be on Shabas. So David had a great
plan. He decided he was going to learn
every shabas the entire Shabas. If
you're in the middle of learning the
can't get you.
So the Garra says uh the came and he
sees
and had a great plan. The garra is he
there was an orchard
behind the house of
the was rustling in the trees. He was
rustling in the trees and wanted to see
what was going on and he stopped for a
moment and the got him. But what's sort
of the secret of the garra?
Why did why was he nifa?
So the suggest this is a rem the idea
that the only reason died is because of
the of the
that's the
was
okay
I want to share with you now
the parish
says
because until now based on the medish
and based on everything we've seen why
did live for 70 years because Adam gave
David 70 years was supposed to live a
thousand he gave him 70 and now he's
only going to live 930
says
[Music]
says says, "Ask for life." He's given
the ability to ask for life. So the Zy
wants to know where did David get 70
years from.
Listen to this says
the
gave life to
each one.
Shak
Abraham gave him a mat
gave him a mat
gave him a mat. You'll ask what do you
mean yo is not an avado he's an a like
it says in
the yellahner
points out y is mentioned in the end of
boratious y is mentioned in the
beginning of shmice because safer is the
book of the safer shamis is the book of
the bunim so yakov are in berius y is
the banim he's in shm but he's also in a
yo is sort of so to speak the bridge
between the ais and the bunam y is a
quasi a as
Somebody that wants to be protected from
say
what should he say
[Music]
I come from because we all come from
by the way just I happened to see
yesterday the
take the word
take the yud the the nigla of yud is the
yud and the milo
dollar. Take the VV is 10. Then you take
the VV of say the is 16. So 10 and 16
that's
is 60
and the pay is pay five that's 65 that's
alf
so the the zar
the to of the of is the suk is what is
making from that's the garraina
gave him a gift gave him a
Y gave him a gift gave did not give him
a gift. Why not? Says well comes
and he can't give a gift. What that
means? The last after the okay but gave
him a gift gave him a gift and gave him
a gift. says
Abra was supposed to live 180 years like
say that Hashem took away Abraham five
years early so he shouldn't see as of
going so Abraham had an extra 5 years to
go so he deposited it in David's bank
account very nice
he can't give gifts he's
lived how many
147. He should have lived how long?
>> 180.
>> 175. As much as you know like like
Abraham. So he had 28 years to give.
>> Now you so you can only live as much as
the Av did live not as much as the Av
should have lived.
>> I mean
>> I refer to anything deeper to the
I could only I could only tell you I can
only I'm just a reporter. I'm just
reporting the facts that it says
already. But Yakob of Lenu lived 147
years. He could have lived 175. That's
another 28 years. So 5 years from
Abraham, 28 years from Jacob or up to 33
comes, how long did live? 110
years. He could have lived how long?
>> 127.
>> 147 like his father, like Jacobu. So he
had another 37 years to go. 37. There we
go. The 70 years of
5 years from Abraham, 28 years from
Jacob and 37 years from
the
Ysef is so much more magnanimous than
Abraham and Jacob. Abraham only gave
five years. Yakov gave 28 years and
Yseph was able to give more years than
both of them combined. says
that's why is the only person in who is
called
even though you know is called a sadic
and um
>> Morai is called a sadic in a farway's
purum learning program Shiva of Morai
sadic it doesn't say anywhere that Morai
was a sadic so only people called sadic
was in the it doesn't say was a sad in
it says
and that's it and says why were these
two people called sadic because they fed
mankind
and
fed the whole world who else has called
it sadic
called it sadic you know Why? Because
the before is
those are the three. So y is a sadic. So
he gave 37 years. Abraham gave five.
Yakov gave 28. Ysef gave 37. So David
has a beautiful 70 years.
Why does need 70 years from the
already gave David 70 years? So what's
going on David? So two questions. Number
one, why does David need another 70
years? Adam already gave him 70 years.
And uh David got short changed. David
should have lived
140 years.
So basically there are three approaches
in the it's interesting you know you
think this question is three in the to
address this question it's basically a
ste between the z and the medish the
medish says gave him the 70 years the z
says it came from the first is from the
or
of galante
he says like this Adam gave
David 70 years.
But
if somebody donates blood
and they find out maybe before the
donation or after donation that the
blood is uh sullied or is not uh
sterile. So you need another transfuse,
you need another blood uh donation. So
it says Adam was ready to give 70 years.
But then he sinned with the eight sadas
and if he would have given those 70
years those 70 years would have been
impuged. They would have been sullied.
They wouldn't have been a good 70 years
and therefore David could not receive
them and he had to take a gift from the
especially if you say that the were
massing
or they were the guillegal of the
marishan. So they themselves were able
to be massing those 70 years that Adam
was going to give.
That's the first approach.
The second approach is the
says I'll give you a you know the famous
line in the shuva
shuva talks about how fleeting life is
how quickly white life moves. He says
if a person would live 2,000 years
imagine a person would live 2,000 years.
When you get to year 2000, you'd be
saying, "What happened to my life? Where
did the time go? How did I waste so much
time?" Shuka writes, "No matter how long
a person lives, it's never enough. The
end of the life, you're going to say,
"What happened to the time?"
So says the Marishan is a very generous
person. He offered 70 years. And in year
930, Adarishan said, "Uh, I can't do it.
I can't do it. I didn't realize that
life would move so fast.
That's what writes
says the
you know everybody knows the wrote a
which is basically uh one day
the schla's wife and children they went
into his room and he wasn't there. Where
did he go? He went to he didn't tell
anybody. He didn't ask anybody's rish.
He didn't tell anybody. He was afraid
that they wouldn't give rish. So the
schlah left but he he wrote he worked uh
on an ethical will which is called the
but the schlaw came to he came to shab
the shabas of
and the wrote a parish on the called
and the schlah was thinking long and
hard what should he write a a safer on.
So the schl is very smart because the
what's safer and cloud has the greatest
circulation a sther you know everybody
needs a sther so the was if he writes on
the sid then uh more people are going to
are going to get it anyway so the schlah
wrote a parish on the
and the schllo says that this that was
on his
isumas in in the We say,
"Do not trust in the generous ones."
And people who have no hope, people say,
"I'm going to give you this. I'm going
to grant you this. I'm going to gift you
that." Don't believe them. Don't trust
them. They're not going to come through.
They're going to be
when the time comes for them to die.
They're going to say, "I regret it."
says
that went to he says you're not
embarrassed from your descendants
kept his
so that's the post that continues
so that's the second approach
the third approach is
comes aid in the midbar
and the says
that inami David got two gifts. He got
70 years from other Marish.
David got 70 years from Abraham Yak and
really David was supposed to live 140
years and Taka David did live 140 years.
The only thing is David loved Tory so
much that he said I love it so much. So
even if though if I would go to sleep at
night I would live 140 years but I can't
go to sleep at night. I'm in such love
with the Torah. So to the
learned those are the 70 years of
those are the 70 years of
says in fact David accepted two gifts
did live 140 years but David was so mic
to the Tory that he he fulfilled both
gifts beyond
So here it is.
He had an he could have lived longer
than he could have lived mameish 140
years. So at 8:00 at night, he could
have hit the sack and had a
he could have doubled his lifetime. But
David says, "I don't want to do that. I
love the so much
that David sort of shortened his
lifespan by being both matano within 70
years.
So what does David represent? What is
the the se of
represents not only limit
is the se of
could have lived 70 more years and he
gave it up for the lira.
Is it any wonder then that hosana which
according to what's the tas of
it's for the bal
could a person do the writer
[Music]
Somebody wants to be to the crown of
Torah.
Do not waste even one of them. Now I'm
going to share with you two words of the
Ram. These two words.
It's amazing how the Ram could speak
about a million things in two words. You
ready for this? What shouldn't you waste
your nights with?
It's to spend six months talking about
masks. It's
that
no says the Ram the Ram says don't waste
even one night
and then the Ram says two words that
includes a million things. You know what
else you shouldn't do?
Those two words,
we could speak forever and ever and
ever. What those two words
are rabbis
is the paragon of he gave up his life
literally for
and therefore
the uh
writes that since
therefore the cap is and the void of is
so theor of is.
So is there any wonder then that the
of is the of
I could share with you in the short
amount of time that we have left just um
an amazing rem from the ka satyra of
hashan raba and even though the ka of
all the days of sukus they're nearly
identical but there are some slight
discrepancies and most notably
Tomorrow's
may have in it a tremendous
forim.
And that's what it says every single
day. But tomorrow we're going to read
there's an extra me, not just a regular
me, an extra final me. In fact, the says
it's the only place in the Tory where
you have seven final mems one after
another after another after another
seven final mems one after another after
another after another after another.
over. We know the migill says enough.
The garra says it says me on the second
extra me on the second day and extra on
the sixth day and extra me on the
seventh day. But let's just focus on the
extra men. What's the Indian of the
extra me?
We know the tab begins with
And it also ends with the
so there's a
called shushanos
byitz.
I believe it's found in the back of the
gar.
He says what's the shas begins with the
regular mem and it and it ends with the
final mem. What's the union of the
regular mem and the final me? And he
says very simply,
the oce
represents Misa. How do I know that?
Says the Z says that when Pinas saw what
Zimry did with KBY
saw what did he see? What did Pin see?
So if your eye doctor tells you this,
you have to, you know, this is the eye
doctor says, "Watch out for floaters."
You hear that expression? You know, it's
not good if you see floaters. The zar
says saw a floating ice. What floating
ice? The
refers to Misa. How do we know the
refers to Misa? The zar says because the
says by the of the
she took me. It doesn't say she took
peri she took me. She took the mem there
is a me there me refers to and every in
the needs aid. So the of piri was
looking to be misdiag with other and in
that it says a number of times vat
and the me of mir was with the vatip
and it created m and that's what brought
misa to the world and now sees the me
and he says there's another floating me
that's going to bring misam
So Pinas knew he has to grab the measure
208.
When you take a me and your fit to 208,
you get
to
so he took the me and he made sure there
wouldn't be mis. So the letter me is mis
but you could seal it shut. How do you
seal it shut? You take the regular open
mem and you turn it into a final me. So
shas begins
with an open me because when you're just
starting you're
not safe the waters are not clear until
you get up to
until you take the open mem which is the
me of which is the and you seal it with
not until then you're not safe. So you
need to seal the open mem um by making
it a closed men by the way. That's the
zarak says that's what means begins with
the open me it ends with the closed me
and the yates is in between the is in
between the avoid this to stop you from
starting. He wants you to remain at the
open mem of and never get to the closed
mem of
how do you close a mem?
So the shushan writes
that the final mem is actually consist
consists of two
consists of two dolls.
Two dolls.
You have a right side up doll and an
upside down dollid. And when the two
dollids come together, it seals shut the
men.
Now, where do these two dollids come
from?
This amazing
says that when Marisha ate from the
um first
and said, what did he do? What did say?
The snake seduced me. The snake
messiani is a very
peculiar word. It does not appear
anywhere else in the whole
says. The word hishiani is a compound
word. It's the two names of
and
that's
took away two. He took out the of
and he took out the of
andi.
He took out the of He took out the
dollar of Shakai
Ysef writes in this parish.
So how do you restore the two dolls that
the took out of the two names of Hashem?
He says he quotes a different he says
that it says in a
[Music]
lid alai
the says fortunate is someone who
listens to me he comes to my
is not spelled but
those who come to my
if somebody comes to the Medish,
he brings back another. Someone who
comes to the Bish,
he brings back another. He restores the
dollar to Alf.
He restores the shiny.
Once you bring back the two dolls,
you seal up the men.
You seal up the me.
What o do you think could be two
are two combined with the
is able to take the med the
never stopped going to the bas not
Not because that's the whole mahus of
his name. The name David is
to put back into the
to put back into the he's the two. He
combines them and he seals shut the
bash into the final me.
It's quite remarkable because says that
when Marishan ate from the
me of
was to a number of vuffs in the fra
but if you look in that p
it's
seven times in that
does it
Seven times in that you have
which means the me of me
had seven opportunities
to be
to vaf.
So if there's anybody who could be close
up these men it's David.
And how many times is he going to have
to do it? How many breaches is he going
to have to se seal? By the way, the says
if you look at the beginning of parab
points out twice in
there's a final me in the beginning of a
word and there's an open me in the end
of the word. So in Yesh
there's a final me in the in the middle
of the word because when Msiah comes
David will seal up the open man and ina
when it talks about the breaching of the
walls of it saysim
the word is spelled hey open man even
though it's at the end of a word why
because when the world is
you're at
you're still
when the world is
all the mems are sealed.
So we have seven vuffs in the beginning
of various that the me of miperi is
connecting to.
But when you come to
which is the day of David
is the se of
is restoring asham
the
of the
is able to seal shut all seven openings
in the beginning of beresious and
therefore we'll see in tomorrow's ka
satra

final. Seven final mems. The only place
in the Tory where
can we say
that say I saw in son-in-law
he says the following and we'll end with
this we have seven minim
you have a lul you have an you have
three and two
and you have seven
so let's let's calculate What's
connected who?
So the three are connected three
and the two
that's a group of two is
he says so you're left with the lul and
the
is
we know
that means who's the lul
is the lul
says of bergman Maybe that's the reason
why the say you untie the lul and you
shake the ocean because
he says
but can we add one little nikuda
then maybe this is another meaning on
why the love is
because since David
and David wasn't did not sleep
and brought
to the world and lived his life.
He was mashim the of the
and the of
and therefore is the se of
therefore the lul is
because the lul is mish the se ofavid
is going to seal shut all the mems of
all seven of them when
kimish
So
we mameish scratched the surface a
little bit a little bit of a
of the
great amus and the great kadusha that's
latent in
amen.
