Before
we talk about and learn together a few
minutes
parshas Mishpatim, I wanted to encourage
I wanted to express with Yehuda. It's
interesting Yehuda made an appeal Reb
Ezi and I were excited. Yehuda one week
made an appeal for Schneim Mikve Targum
and I liked it a lot. It was like you're
right. It's an Indian and people should
learn the parsha.
Like we could even talk about that in a
few minutes.
Cuz I'm going to go right there cuz I
wanted to make a different appeal but I
want to express with Yehuda Tsvi.
It's it's
I'll come from the following word. In
last week's parshas Mishpatim, so when
Moshe and Aaron Nadav and Avihu and the
Shiv'im Zekenim saw Hashem bishas
Kabbalas haTorah, Hashem had a livnas
sappir or sapphire
had a sapphire brick in front of him
bishas yetzias Mitzrayim.
Now yetz they were looking at Hashem
bishas Kabbalas haTorah
but they saw Hashem that bishas yetzias
Mitzrayim he had a sapphire brick in
front of him. Now if you're wondering
how did they see that? There's no time
in Shamayim. I just like saying that
fact but there's no time in Shamayim and
of course when you see there's no
yesterday by Hashem everything's
eternal.
So it could get people
it could get people a little overwhelmed
but you could if you see
not if they saw Hashem so they could see
what was. So when they saw Hashem they
saw during yetzias Mitzrayim he had
during shivud Mitzrayim he had a livnas
sappir in front of Hashem.
Time is is for us. Time is in our world.
In Shamayim there's what?
>> [laughter]
>> He's right. He's right.
I like start times. yes. I started my
father my father is is in front of me
and I'm working hard and being more in
time. End times, I'm not masking. I'm my
hug. There's no such thing.
By a doubt, I don't want any minute. I
like Armenian change. There's no more I
sometimes speak 5 minutes, sometimes an
hour. There's no And what does it mean
an end time? Let's do the thing. If
we're tired, we'll go short. If Maybe we
should do a few more mishaberachs that
week. Maybe the end time thing gets I
can A start time I hear we all have to
know. But when you do something, do the
thing. I appreciate Rebbe Shapiro's
here. I see right cats also. There's no
end time.
I don't know what time did I see 1/3
now. I get I get it. People The guys
leave, walk out. We say there. I just
mean like we're doing something, so
we're let's do the thing. And we're in
the middle of Let's get lost in the
thing. At start time, we all need to
meet somewhere. I I tell my kids
I tell my kids cuz when we have maarivs
in the shuls, I run out of shalos
shuddis for maariv. So I tell my kids to
me this is my parnassah. Parshas I have
a job after running to make maariv to I
said in your own homes, you finish
shalos shuddis. You go halacha. You're
in the middle of shalos shuddis. You're
schmoozing with the family, you're
singing zemiros. Shalos shuddis goes. At
the end of the minyan, you'll find
you'll find I remember there at the shul
I go to vision. It's an usual we collect
the minyan late. You're in the middle
shalos shuddis. You don't end shalos
shuddis. It has a start time and end
time for shalos. It's It's wild to have
an end time. Maybe Tuesday you'll end
shalos. I beg my kids. I tell them if
you have a job, you have a have a shul.
If not,
you're doing shalos shuddis, you do
shalos shuddis. The end of shalos
shuddis of any, you'll get a group of
from minyan. You say there zechor
zechor.
>> [laughter]
>> But as it were, we have to have Okay.
I'm not talking 72. I'm talking 172,
272. Tell me
shalos shuddis.
But kids are happy. How do we go to the
time the kids are is that the Shas
Kabbalah Torah?
>> [laughter]
>> We're back on schedule, back on time.
The So kids are doing Kabbalah
May-Sha-Aron and this Cain and the value
and this Cain and they see a sham that
he has a liveliness
in front of him Shas the Shima.
The question is and and a value that
that's a big big Sugya that a sham feels
our pain what we're going through things
the
Shas Kabbalah even
the Torah big Sugya. Why is that what
they saw Kabbalah Torah?
Why is that they saw? So during COVID I
found I found the
I found
that of all the men can Yania Torah the
biggest one is nice about the Torah
and Shas Kabbalah
a sham was being nice about the one of
the
Torah.
I want to say something different.
The men can Yania Torah even it's the
most important the men the men
my high the Shas Kabbalah
the
a sham was um
my high the Shas Kabbalah
a sham had a liveliness
he was with our Torah.
What's happening?
So I want to tell you like this.
I've said over every show in the country
this Shabbos people speak they're going
to speak on Parshas Truma.
Maybe they should say a verse from a
different Parsha.
Every Simcha this week is either
Mishpatim or Truma or Metzei.
It's a funny custom quality Israel has.
And the is the is that when a person
learns Torah a sham's talking to us you
can expect that a sham's talking to your
Sugya. All of Klal Yisrael is learning a
certain parsha, so Hashem's talking to
us.
Hashem's mamesh talking to us. Hashem's
talking in the Torah. So, Klal Yisrael
understands if we're having a sheva
brachos during the week of Mishpatim, so
we understand let's look in the parsha
and see what Hashem's saying about the
simcha.
Let's find out about it. Hashem's
talking to us. Of course, he's talking
to our things. All of Klal Yisrael is
reading this. That's pshat Rabbanan in a
konnen from the parsha. If something's
going on, being threatened by Iran,
okay, let's let's be mavaser. I it's
parsha in the city. I asked my mishpacha
to look over the parsha. I my mishpacha,
of course, you read the parsha and you
you see what's going on and you like
Hashem's talking to us. Parsha like
that. When you're mavaser common, it's
like shaya. Things that you're going
through, you read about it, of course.
You didn't always even the Indian that
he had looks at the parsha. He had
checking in on his life. He's mamesh
checking in. Hashem's talking to him.
I like that it's the opposite what
somebody thinks. The guy comes to Torah,
he has like so many worries.
And then he learns, he's like, "Does the
rabbi even know me?"
Rabbi Ross sometimes says I've heard
Rabbi Ross this we've discussed this
about guys. Sometimes people yell at a
guy, you talk to a guy. You're yelling
at this and his Sugya is a different
Sugya. A guy told me mamesh this week he
was crying.
He said, "My father's minding me
someday. I don't mind what he's minding.
He just doesn't know my life."
What he's saying is remarkably
disconnected to where I wish he was like
on my page. Forget on my page, in the
same book as me. Forget in the same page
as me.
I'm here. He's handling me and he's like
no shaya to what I'm at, to where I'm
at, to what's going on. The guy was
mamesh crying this week like this.
It's important by Torah. We had come to
Kabbalas haTorah from Mitzrayim.
And Eureka when they saw Hashem Kabbalah
the sheet the
and the journey we had come from that
was in front of Hashem the witness up
here. And specifically
Hashem's talking to our story. This is
where you've come you see we saw Hashem
he was
coming from our story. We saw him the
sheet that's what we saw Kabbalah Torah.
In speaking us to the very same place we
were coming from Hashem was coming from.
One can expect that and Torah it's
one can expect that and Torah.
When I was a youngster my rebbe shiyurim
and shmoozing would like hit exactly
what I was thinking about and I thought
like it was a
it could be yeah could be there's such a
thing. Now I understand this like
like that's the shittim. Somebody goes
to learn Torah by rebbe one can expect
it will
talk to us. So yeah Hashem's talking to
us. So of course it will talk to us
again one can expect that that's that's
the assumption.
Perhaps that's that's I just like your
push. You didn't check in on the parsha
and read all of
learning the Hashem's talking to us this
every year that's to then tune in and
listen in and look at the parsha and
read over the parsha.
I've had many times you did see
remarkable amount of times I learn
nicely on planes. It's one of the only
I want to learn if I saw more things as
planes it would be better for me. But I
learn I have an associate like a learn
association on a plane. So I learn
nicely on plane. A guy a guy who was
near me saw me you're such a master. And
I said
if I'd always be on a plane maybe like
but at planes I
got so much else to do.
The mice uh
it's uncanny going somewhere and I think
I'm going to speak about a certain
topic. Then I'm learning Chumash and I
Hashem like tells me other things like
you're watching Hashem learn. You're
being spoken to. It's clear that's how
learning Torah. Especially all of Klal
Yisrael is reading the parshas of Torah.
We call the parsha Shavuous that we just
completed.
All of Klal Yisrael is reading these
parshas and then there's Yitziat
Mitzrayim happening. That's what Hashem
is telling us what's going on. So we
name those weeks Shavuous. They have a
name those weeks because that's what's
going on. Hashem is telling us all this.
Now so let's continue. So I liked a lot
what Yudi Zweig's appeal.
I've been I've been on an appeal the
last couple of months and I want to
share it with my friends. Make big Rosh
Chodesh seudos.
Rosh Chodesh he said make Mitzvah Seudah
great again. I want to make Rosh Chodesh
also. Not not not as not a difference.
Rosh Chodesh I brought my wife the first
time to Rebbetzin Brimm. And of course
Ki Yadua the Nashim have a connection to
Rosh Chodesh. But it's for Nashim and
Nashim Rosh Chodesh. Zman Kippur and the
whole Torah is Rosh Chodesh. It's a big
thing. I brought my Mishpacha
my wife to Rebbetzin Brimm and she the
first thing she said, she said make sure
to have big Rosh Chodesh seudos in the
home.
It's interesting when I was a youngster
my brother was a masmid. He wasn't the
type to go out much. He didn't eat out.
Rosh Chodesh we would go to Mirus
together.
I don't say I understood Rosh Chodesh. I
mean I went out other times too. But my
brother I was there I could only get him
to Mirus. Today if we would go out it
would be a lot fancier than Mirus. Rosh
Chodesh is a big thing. Mirus is
wonderful but in Rosh Chodesh we'd go a
lot further than Mirus.
And it's interesting to be mechazek Rosh
Chodesh.
The the Yevanim wanted to start up with
Am Yisrael mevatel three things. Shabbos
everybody would transgress Shabbos.
Amisah that's our names. Am Yisrael
Shavuous and Shabbos. That's who we are.
That's the
Mila everybody would guess that they
started up with Bris Mila. The third
thing is a new thing. It's a new thing.
New thing.
You wouldn't put it in that that like
list of like mitzvahs to start up.
Now, we do our whole count is different
than the
They count the year of the sun. We're
busy. We count the moon year. We we
count a different year. We count the
year by the moon.
And there's a big Indian of
coming back.
New things.
New
things.
A guy
asked me a question. Such an honest
question. A guy asked such an honest
question.
>> [snorts]
>> And I'm so I was taken aback. He said,
"I have ADHD, Rabbi." Said, "ADHD, he
said, I get tired of things fast." Said,
"What does marriage look like for an
ADHD guy?" He said, "The
same person decades it is."
Now, his mistake is and we make the
mistake to ourselves and to others. We
like lock in way too strong.
I I wanted my own self, my inner voice.
I used to say, "Daniel, here you go
again." I threw that out.
Even when I want to give myself muster,
it's never Daniel, you go again. There
you go, Daniel. Oh.
Because there's a certain voice that
says are you like you're stuck there.
Not stuck at all.
You think like you found yourself. I'm
51. I'm beginning to you know like the
guy found the whole thing.
It's grace. It's huge. We find new
things. Don't box in your wife, either.
Never. Don't box in your wife. Let her
be new seen. If you're if if you're very
shallow, you're like you'll see you're a
certain thing. You'll box her in. Okay,
she this is what you don't know your
wife. You're crazy. Guy thinks he knows
his wife. You have an ashama down like
an ashama's like crazy. You don't know
what she doesn't know. We're letting
newness. See some don't always put it We
we put things in boxes cuz it like
predictability in some ways helps us.
When guys come to Yeshiva, I always try
to compare them to a different guy who
he is.
I just want to feel safe.
You know, dogs scare me cuz I don't know
what they're going to do. I can't
They're unpredictable to me. So, I want
to like I want to get the guy is a
three, four. Like I get his enneagram
number. I get the guy he resembles early
in the Yeshiva, sees him. But it's
hogwash. So, it's not an emes. Of
course, he's a new person.
Good. So, we need a little security. We
need a little You think you know your
spouse, you know yourself. Let for
newness. Let room for newness.
The sugiyah of Rosh Chodesh is a year
It's always being mechadesh, always
coming ever fresh, ever being s'chazek,
ever coming back. Haman said, "Yeshna
Yamecha." The Rebbe said from quote in
Isaiah that yeshna is their sleeping.
Like they just like
There's not Then all of a sudden Klal
Yisrael Mordechai come Mordechai It's
out there comes and is mechazek. A year
has the koach of the moon, chiddush,
new, fresh, another start, another
s'chazkus, a new chizuk is Just when you
thought this is him,
where did this come from? An explosion
of newness.
I watch I watch like the all the de'ah
sh'u'raize, all these campaigns and
things. It's amazing. Shas, you have so
much newness. I'm just like encouraged
by the newness for like the next
initiative of our people.
When I just when you think you've sized
us up, this is what we are, like we have
a new initiative, a new chizuk, a new
encouragement, a new thing that like
flies through our people. We're like the
levana.
We're not just flat and this is what you
see.
We're not like that. It's not who we
are.
I'm sorry. I have this quest to gather
characters. We we see
like grow and it's true the entirety of
our people.
We're we're moon people who are
constantly being
encouraged and renewed and and ever
starting again and being has again. You
think it's here and it explodes to
something bigger. How much like
convinced that's it. The fuzz of
I'm in there they're not they're not
they're not in unity. All of a sudden a
new thing comes out. Where did this come
from? We're moon people.
I want to suggest to the that we start
making a bigger deal about
I'm not just talking about for our
families, for ourselves. I'm trying
personally. I It's interesting in the
Shiva. I'll tell you honestly. In the
Shiva for Adar, so we didn't want to
make like a big
you're worried the would drink. I don't
know. We have our own government issues.
We have to be careful.
But I I wanted
to see what we did in the morning. Now
you make a
in the morning. I knew it wouldn't be
too bad.
I have her dance better at night. That's
the way it is.
Minus and everybody dance well day. We
have a help. I'll see you. But I know if
you know how to make
at night people are much more like.
So I knew it wouldn't be so but I wanted
to see for me. I made it for a few
people. The came left. It was very nice
but we sat. A couple of sat. I
is
a big thing.
And I want to be
all of us to it's copper. Look at the
Look at the
get hollow
dish and
and I want to be
for ourselves to make a bigger deal of
have a soda. Have a nice
Have a nice steak dinner with the
family. Go all out. Good music
soda.
To be
but the Indian but not just to have the
day
have the day. Interesting when they
wanted to attack us every year. They
wanted to attack us. They They take away
Rosh Chodesh. I wonder today again, even
when we're not attuned to it, I wonder
today if any enemy would study our
people would say, "Okay, I'm taking away
Shabbos." They'd want to take away and
be well. I wonder if anybody would study
us today. Now, of course, of course,
Rosh Chodesh is doing big things, but
I'm not sure we're attuned enough that
Rosh Chodesh is a big one.
And to make a bigger deal of Rosh
Chodesh, so big deal. And then the cult
of a new starts fresh fresh Rosh
Chodesh, new beginning mamesh.
So, that's the first thing I wanted to
jump on the back of you that see the
appeal for Schnay Mikrah. I wanted an
appeal for Rosh Chodesh to be much
really to make sure it's
by Chabad Chassidim. They're very
There's big big sukkahs of Rosh Chodesh.
Suddas of big suddas by many tzaddikim.
By tzaddik tell you Rebbetzin Brimm, the
first thing she said to my wife, "I
don't remember I don't remember if it
revolves and if it was Rosh Chodesh when
we saw her." It makes sense why was she
being much but maybe not. Maybe I don't
that I I don't think my
I'm not sure if we remember if it was
Rosh Chodesh, but she told us big Rosh
Chodesh suddas in the house. Make Rosh
Chodesh There should be a big deal. So,
I wanted to remind my friends of this be
much. It's a big thing to have Rosh
Chodesh to be a moon type of person
chizuk.
Constantly being much a new a new a new
a new a new a new a new a new a new a
new a new a new a new a new a new a new
a new a new a new a new a new a new a
new a new a new a new a new a new a new
a new a new a new a new a new a new a
new a new a new a new a new a new a new
a new a new a new a new a new a new a
new a new a new a new a new a new a new
a new a new the first thing I wanted to
share with the chevre.
I'm very interested. I don't have a
clerk shot, but I want to share this
with you my I I wonder about the
Nasi'im. I'm very interested.
The
Kodesh says that that Yitzchok Avnei
Shoham in the list of the gifts, the 13
gifts to the Mishkan. So, it says
all the way at the end of the list is
the Avnei Shoham, Avnei Miluim.
Now, the Chaim Kodesh's bought, those
are the most expensive. Shtup them at
the end of the list?
They belong first, they're the most
chashuve gifts.
Put them first in the count of the like
shtup at the end, they cost 600,000.
The The Chaim Kodesh says this is the
most expensive. You describe the gifts
that were given, you put them all the
way at the end? It's funny how funny
they have to put them all the way at the
end. The Chaim Kodesh says that this
reflects the mussar to the Nesi'im that
they gave it last.
And there was some taina on the Nesi'im.
I'm always interested exactly show me
the taina. It's so pragmatic the
Nesi'im, that's such a good cheshbon. I
picture the Nesi'im are the responsible
ones. And what they did is so smart,
they said, "Listen, we want to give to
Everybody wants to give to the All of
Klal Yisrael, they had to like push it
to hold back Klal Yisrael from giving.
They push it So, everybody, they wanted
to give to. It was like a very
cheshbon'dike thing. The Nesi'im said,
"Listen, let Am Yisrael give.
And what they don't give, we'll give.
We'll push it Let's see Everybody's just
giving randomly. We have things we need.
We're building a Mishkan. There's
There's keilim, there's requirements.
Their cheshbon is so like pregnant It's
so practical and gishmak.
They said, "Let everybody give what they
give. No matter how much they got
cheshbon, let people donate, and
whatever is not given, we'll give."
Somehow they're punished for that.
There's some I'm trying to figure out
where like where what's wrong with that.
That's a nice cheshbon.
I'm sorry?
That's That's a certain way. I jump Klal
Yisrael did fine. You see that Clauswell
didn't need anything. Like if you tie
and jump in and just give
it's a good but they're very but they're
pragmatic. Clauswell did just fine given
This is certain this is certain sense
when it comes to
it's not it's not a
thing given to them. There's something
about the
about excitement given given a crazy
way. Don't be so normal. Don't be so
here. There's somehow here there's a big
had got the wave.
And not to give in this manner. Like
this manner there was some is such a man
that
they should have just take excitement is
more important than the things.
It's interesting. It's interesting to me
in every show there's like the
Not just every show and every idealism
and every idealism there's the
structure. I yesterday comes and sees
and our system is like pathetic.
He said what do you got because we just
we wanted
and not we weren't caring about it
making too much sense. We're all waiting
around
novelty
then there's always the practical guy
who makes the sustainable and work.
But there's a reason we weren't thinking
about the sustainability.
It's interesting that here like they
were coming in such a practical
pragmatic way and there's something to
construction that's not about like all
the practical
I picture the rest of
just jumping in
wave were excited. We want to build. We
want to construct. We want to help. So
well we got to we got to organize here.
In a certain way the excitement and the
rush of excitement is what you needed as
much as you needed the organization.
I can see this in construction in our
own lives and in many things we build.
The excitement of the thing
I I I got to give like a
This might not even do justice, this
mashal.
A little kid is like trying to serve the
soup Shabbos or trying to set the table
Shabbos. And the kid sets it all wrong.
I'm not coming the wife a Shabbos should
be gorgeous, set up perfectly. I'm not
coming to that. It's easier on somebody
else's thing. Only bringing out the
point the kid sets up and it's not so
neat. The kid serves soup, there's
usually like a trail of soup along It
might not be the most organized thing
with a perfect but isn't it much bigger
that the kid wants to serve and is
getting involved then the nedivus halev
is bigger than the organ Now there's
something called organization, there's
such a thing.
But the the heart of the matter and
somehow the nesiam I criticized You had
a very like cheshbon thing and probably
somebody has to be mesader. First just
understand, let people just bring. It's
only afterwards they're trying to like
get the thing under control. I picture
the scenes. The scene in parshas trumah
was wonderful. People are giving,
they're making announcements like
there's no people on earth this would be
true. They're not struggling, they like
have to not by
like the piles of stuff are like
there's
daiva
there's like extras like you can't
imagine and they have to ask everybody
let's stop. Okay and then there's the
neis that everything ends up being
needed exact.
Because what's there is the nedivus, the
generosity and the beauty and each yid's
each yid's donation is important.
But um yeah I I don't have a teretz. I'm
not I'm not but emes beemes I'm
struggling with the what's wrong.
There's some einash there things
kodish writes that it's put less. It was
a bad cheshbon. Maybe again again I'm
not saying shut. I I really want I'm
thinking about it again this year. I
don't know. I don't know to be
I tried. I tried but I didn't see that I
would be so excited. I
That's a
Because people are upset. Kalish there's
a room for organization. Good, you're a
mess but there's a get my friends are
nice. They didn't but I can you feel
what I am thinking?
I'm I'm bothered. I'm Demis, I'm
bothered it's and I I don't like a
forced shut.
I said Dovi, I don't know I Demis don't
know and there's things going on. What
they what they said so like sensible.
So let's see what everybody gives and
then we'll fill in the blank.
Maybe they underestimated Kalish or
maybe that's the time it doesn't sound
there's something about there's
something too practical when it comes to
like getting involved in Kalish. Stop
being so practical. Say practicality for
and is there a place it's funny even
watch the system. People just brought
tons. Then we're like woah woah woah
like we have to like make these
announcements. Could somebody get the
people because Kalish will get excited
and we're fired up about something.
Say that we have to contain it. We have
to find the vessels to contain this
thing but there's an excitement. Maybe
that should come first.
I write balls and I have a whole shalom
organizations.
There's always the person there's always
the chaos and the organizer. It's a big
shalom who should be the one who should
be the two.
I always think that the one is the guy
who When I say one I'm talking about guy
I'm talking about what that the anchor
of the thing is the idealism.
Then if I do have to build systems. Yes,
right comes next. You first have to have
the I if you have the system minus and I
you try to stop it is there room for the
idealist. First is the schmuck. Then it
seemed there's some tiny here to start.
Okay, let's let's do this work. What are
we doing anything organized?
The boy said Mishkan.
Then it seemed I'm giving everybody just
running giving you shirt.
This last call was being so organized.
Let's see what everybody
That maybe, but I don't know. I I
Mishkan know what he say you invest you
like it. That's how I hear it. The the
first thing the first meeting shouldn't
have been okay, let's do this organize.
Let's not. Let's have everybody Rabbi
say Mishkan.
People are just taking off shirts,
giving their ties, throwing things in.
The Nashama giving their mirrors. It's
mamish Mishkan. Let's go.
Knock them. Let's figure out then we
have to make it out. Rabbi say we have
tons we're overwhelmed. We're doing a
little accounting here. Knock them like
the structure. Maybe they started too
fast with the structure. I don't know.
But it That's right Russ. What's the
Sugya?
Kailis like promoting chaos like they
they should be a good structure like why
should they
The more organized amongst us are like
squirming in their seats like what
what's the picture you want this thing?
I I had many pictures yet how this would
play out in an in in a system. How this
would like if the structure's there like
dominating the the idealism with the
idealism then you build the structure
around it. Here like that skull is let's
see what they bring. That's that
Mishkan let's go and then then knock
them we'll see how to get this all.
I want to close I want to close that I'm
with something I've said many years and
I want to but I I don't want to say what
I said last year. I want to be more shy
of to it.
We've asked many years. It says they had
die for a sir. There was enough and
extra.
Anybody learns the Homish if there's
enough there's not extra. If there's
extra there's not enough. It's two
different things. Die means was mamish
nice it was exact.
Explains the Hamakolish that the MS
those extra.
But it was a nice what everybody gave
like was exact. If you If you did it in
the life and of Teva, it wouldn't it was
much more stuff, but everything was used
and necessary.
And I want to express that the purpose
of the Nace.
The purpose of the Nace is the reality
that every single year's donations are
necessary. That's the purpose of the
Nace. It's that we need coolum. We
mamesh need coolum. The Sugya of Purim,
the Sugya the Ikkas Sugya Amalek about
this unity of Kli Yisrael we don't need
everybody. That's how Amalek is. The Gra
says in Even Shleima that Amalek's about
period.
And the Sugya is lech kness kol
hayehudim. Haman says
mufraz umufar, they're separate. The
ikker nekudah of achdus is that we need
all. There's no extras in our people. We
need all. And Esther says lech kness kol
hayehudim. I love I love shalach manos.
I love the look of our people.
Beautiful. Go to the streets for shalach
manos. Everybody's running, gifting to
each other. To massive Yehudim not just
bringing everybody's celebrated, needed.
From the little children to them to to
the to everybody in the mishpacha giving
gifts to one another.
And the nekudah of achdus Yisrael, the
minhag I I appreciate a lot. And you get
in danger when you instead of like
criticizing Kli Yisrael, observe our
people. The mitzvah of shalach manos is
gorgeous how people grab onto the
mitzvah.
It's a mitzvah that's celebrated and
done very serious.
And then I love by the kri'as hamegillah
that everybody comes. Just observe our
people. It's We have to make sure to be
yotzei. Make sure the kids are not not
banging at the wrong times for sure. But
it's interesting to observe. To me it's
pashut that the minhag Yisrael that the
kids
>> [laughter]
>> I mean our inner children also. But the
minhag Yisrael that everybody comes.
The minhag Yisrael that
comes to me is clarlich knice kol
yidden. That's the sherish. Haman Haman
the Amalek wants us to say not
everybody's necessary. Only some. Give
me your best. They try to knock it on
and by krias some megillah when we fight
Amalek everybody comes to shul, but
everybody. Everybody's there, men, women
and children.
And I want to express this daiva heiser,
this amazing nice, a remarkable nice.
There were gifts given by every yid and
yet when we construct in the mishkan it
like came out exact. Everything should
have been the wrong size. We should have
had tons of stuff, but there would be a
mashmaist that he was actually didn't
need him.
What he and it wasn't that way. The laiv
of every yid he gave this thing in his
way it was mamish it was like so
perfect. It's lucky pashit after we were
done. It's lucky everybody brought. You
have to picture the scene. It's a
beautiful scene. After we put everything
together it was like nothing left.
There wasn't one thing left, Shloima. We
put everything together. It's like shoo.
A guy I pictured the guy who like only
had a drip, Daniel. He like brought this
Then at the end there was nothing left.
He's like it's lucky I brought it.
Now really wink wink there's no wink
wink. It's true. It's true. We went to
we mamish went to made it we we mamish.
In the world of ruchni somebody asked me
that it says daiva heiser should say
heiser v'daiv.
Say it was extra. First there was extra
and then daiv. Why does it say daiva
heiser? According to the Sifrei Devarim
it says first it was extra then it's
daiv.
The iker nekudah is that it's daiv. It
was exact.
If you want to know the math it was
heiser.
In the chitzonistiker world like if you
would have done the computations it
looked like more. That's not emes. The
emes it was daiv.
Every single thing was needed. That guy
brought though we couldn't have done the
mishkan without him. The nice is moire
something. By the way we couldn't have
built the Mishkan without that guy's
thing. That is Nais. It's funny in the
world of practical, you would never
think like this. See, if you went and
this This is like a different world than
this is the Nais know what I'm saying,
but this is like the opposite. The Nais
come, let's see what everybody gives.
We'll give when That's not how Mishkans
are built.
The Mishkan's built that every Yidden
there was way extra and there was
nothing extra.
I don't know if the Mishkan would have
gone up if that guy didn't give his cuz
Yidden are needed.
It's
all of Israel. All of Israel is
together. Push out a Yid, there's no
Hashra'as Hashchina is entirely of our
people.
So comes out the Nais is more than
It's so lucky that it's true. It's not
just We tricked the guy.
When the guy said it's lucky I brought
my little things. It's
like jokes on him.
We fooled him like that. You shouldn't
be fooling anybody. It's the
There was day. That's the It says day
first. It doesn't say
day cuz the It was day. It was perfect.
So lucky he brought his thing.
Now, if you want to know in our world of
what I'm saying, in that world of the
pragmatic world of the Nais, there
there was extra stuff. Not in the It was
day. In the Nais, if that guy wouldn't
have brought his thing,
wouldn't have worked.
I think this Indian is an Indian of
at a time of the year
and and I had it to put it other that
you throw and nice call you them this We
need each one of us each each one's
limited. Each one's to feel each one's
of that counts that matters is day.
We can't do without. We can't. It won't
work.
So it's funny. It's I think in a
different
way I've the times since I'm a kid.
The younger me for sure saw it like a
cute thing, like a sham
like fold the guy like make a youngster
young like you were needed. Wink wink
wink wink.
The guy comes to the basketball game and
on the team gives him like 30 seconds so
good you came. He's like a little slow.
They push him like praying he doesn't
show up to the game. A player of game
guys ask me Rebbe, could you like send
them to eat out please he shouldn't come
by the game. And the guy gets his 30
seconds but you have to be nice. Oh so
thank you so much for coming and you
give him
So like the killu the guy is a nice like
yeah they didn't feel.
That's not that's not how ruchniyus
works. What's that? Who went to work
with him?
Cuz we're not talking about a physical
we're talking about yidden in the
daifus.
If you can't trust this daiva haiser to
the naseem's chashban
that good there's a practical they're
being practical whatever you
That's not what's going on here in the
world of practical like takka make sure.
But in that world by the way in the
naseem's world I don't I don't I'm not
coming to criticize naseem I'm talking
chazal say something to study it so I'm
trying in the naseem's world where I I
balls I wonder if the naseem would tell
the yid that we don't need it.
The daftus lishnah.
In their world we're trying to figure
out like practical they would tell you
know we have enough.
It's not that we're building this thing.
It's not that it's not what's happening
here. Yeah is there practical
arrangements to do later on we'll figure
that stuff out and then that is him.
Die but what happens is each kid's the
daifus and excitement and passion.
There there there's what to learn in our
own structures of our homes and our own
ruchniyus structure structure and our
families and our yeshivas and our shuls.
Sometimes this person is like excited to
contribute in a certain way and you make
a binder. Now, we don't
I started to do children. I like running
things. I like certain songs and
shimmies. I'm doing children. Guys would
say, "Rabbi, could we sing?" I would be
mad, but a guy would ask, "Rabbi, could
we sing?" I'm Cobra man. I'm like A guy
wants to sing like a tissue box song on
Friday night. Today, I often will sing
with the guy. I I can't say always. I'm
more inclined. There's a backer
recently. A Friday night he asked to
sing a song. Could we sing a chainu?
Friday night a chainu.
He was so sincere. Let's sing a chainu
with him. Let's talk Let's That will
figure out that also will will make
shabbos in there, too.
Even then, I want to say from a guy
who's afraid of these things. Like to
me, I was certain like, "No." I Maybe
that's like the head of the museum. Like
you're so organized. Pasha. Let's see
what each one brings. Like we don't need
that. We have enough of them.
It's not how it works. He wants to sing
a chainu. No, no, we have a So, maybe
let's sing a chainu together with him.
He's getting bringing his his initiative
here. He wants to be part. He's excited.
There's yesh to our mirror in our own
homes in our own I see it in my own
private session. I see things like this.
Certainly in a home, certainly in a
yeshiva, certainly in a shul. Somebody's
being mishtative. This is their way.
But, we don't need that. He wants to be
mishtative.
He wants to be mishtative. This is his
way of being mishtative. That let's
figure out. His wave is needed. There's
another person. He wants to sing a
chainu. Let's go. A chainu. Let's go.
Let's Let's add this a chainu. It will
be that. It will all fit in, and
everything will be needed. Have a great
shabbos.
I never
