[clears throat] the truth is always very
challenging because who has time to
learn you're busy with
of course you're busy and comes and
they're silus
and the po bemoan the fact that there
are very few that really know and I'm
certainly not one of them I'm going to
try to give you a little of a background
to the common shilas regarding the male
um when a person needs a major repair
plumbing electricity appliances and
we'll talk about other type of shilas
like this that come up every
don't forget this year we have a fully
narrow there are six days in there are
five days. There's no shabas this year.
So we really have to know the properly
what says a lot about is actually the
you have to keep p seven days and it's
not true. P is only the first day and
the last day in the middle. So
that is the one of the four you look at
that other as well that make the same
approach. The Torah calls it a Y. It's
only
it's a Y that's a little more mut than a
regular.
>> [clears throat]
>> And this is why really the truth is we
should mention there are three levels
in
there. Of course, the shabas has the
most it's the
has more
and is even more than but
in fact
that's the
is whenever it's fine whenever it's
there are those that hold it and the
truth is when the acting
indicates it's more a
than a real but I must mention
he quotes those that hold
those that hold but he said had they
seen other that I saw they would also
agree that when it's
and therefore and I quote
don't be quick to be
so in other words Ideally we treat like
a and suffic.
So again it's not a steer the fact that
it's more m than y because y is more
than chabas the person gave us three
different levels of shab
now unfortunately as we know is often
mistreated is a zilo
and maybe even it's an innocent mistake
because after all I drive my car which
is thousands of per minute when you
drive your car the
So is we do we put on the lights and we
put on the appliances but it's not a
that's the that's the
is certain
only and even some those that are we'll
see it's a when it's when it's a as
we'll see but let's not forget
and
shimmel
member of the peric bay
So is going on
because the fact that people look at it
it's not it's not and has this
Mishna had to remind us
is a very terrible crime. I just saw the
z he says although there are case where
it's to make repairs in
it's not done even though it's
why
you have to be careful not to do
anything that might imply a zily. So
even though it's mut stay far away now
when is it mut so we're going to get an
excellent start an excellent insight
says
you know how to write
has take vacation
more than that
to corrections even one o in a Safe for
Ezra. What's safe for Ezra? So, Rashi
Taka points out it's a it's a printing
error. It's safe for Azor. It seems
there was one safe kept in the Azor that
was the most it was the most accurate
and that was something like the this you
could know what's right and what's
wrong. And believe it or not, they found
a a mistake in that. Now, what would you
do? comes right after I got to correct
him right so no you can't correct or
write even
ah you'll ask I don't understand I I I
write my shopping list so I write your
shopping list why can I write why can I
correct
but the question is stronger in the same
you know how to write an IOU if you want
to lend money typically write a star.
This you're not allowed to do. But
if the mala does not trust you unless
you give him a star, you're allowed to.
So again, it's you're allowed to write
an
just not to write a.
So the answer to this is probably the
biggest that we need for today is based
on a
says
to press clothing to iron clothing on
why
it's not it's now again that's going to
be the key words key words for today.
When someone irons clothing, you don't
have to be that smart. You don't have to
go to training and the job that you do
is reflects that it's not the most
professional work to do. A better
example, when you write your shopping
list,
you're not writing it like with saffris
or calligraphy, artistic, it's regular
writing. So regular writing is called
that's done
is [clears throat] so that's why to make
your shopping list or to iron your
clothing is
and it's only
but are the next words but to pleat that
means in in a skirt in pants to put
pleat means to put in the crease that
wasn't there and I rashly expl explains
you need someone an um to do it because
it's supposed to last. It has to stay.
[clears throat] So typical ironing is
mut it's a but pleading a skirt a pants
whatever it is which needs an um and has
to be done in the proper way that's a
is not even
so everything is because when you're
talking about a shopping list or an IU
they are both
but to write a safer Even
for that you need a
which means the and the
are both professional craftsmanship
work. So that's the basic now this is
quot
and the and explains when you do
something of an omnis that is awesome.
The truth is that we find the same
concept in the Mishna.
You allow to make a Maka a protective
fence
because this is only
you have to suffice with a
we'll soon see if you have no other
safer whatsoever except the one that's
plebs
because that will be as we'll soon see
which is a whole different but we
understand the very well basically
But the problem for now is so when is it
ever
so this is a good question and this is
actually
a a
lot to do when we write to
so Mr. explains if you which means if
you don't do it now you're going to end
up causing a loss
in other words even
which is
but if it causes a loss if you neglect
it then it's to do even
[clears throat]
the is maybe I the inspiration is why is
mut just because it's of no so you lose
a few dollars
the what's the whole of
tells us it was given to us so we'll
spend our time in Bish making up for
lost time during the rest of the year
if someone is going to have a a
potential do of he's going to be so
worried and distracted he won't have
[clears throat] the ravion
is that if someone's going to be worried
about his he won't be able to learn he
can't concentrate. [clears throat]
So I realized then that the of is to
keep us focused on
and sometimes the
is the same reason keep us focused on
and on the
so the two out of the three reasons
speaks volumes of what is supposed to be
don't be distracted with anything now
there is a third reason and that's
mentioned by the safe harmonic the end
mentions it
waste money that's inappropriate
and that's why we know clearly that is
even a
[clears throat] now the what probably
led and brisket to say that develop
people make a mistake they think is like
you know in between it's not true is
like but
And the truth is in the
said
the Torah says step one is
as explains the Torah gave it to the to
decide when it's but at the end of the
day when say it's
and more so because it's called a
Many people don't say they say it's to
reinforce this equation
and are both have to be dealt with
properly. Now to apply [clears throat]
this more specifically, let's talk about
a following sh. Someone asked me this.
He's not sure. He has sees a little of a
leak. He doesn't know if it's a or not.
Maybe get away with it. How did view
of it? So until today we would say
it's holding the if you hold that
if you go with those
that is only [clears throat] it should
be
or maybe we'll say like we often say
[clears throat] since the reason since
the reason is to keep the to keep the
learning
So once you have a legitimate a real
suffic that's going to bother you.
You're going to tell yourself don't
don't worry about it because only a
suffic but a person's worrying. So zil
all three reasons would indicate even if
it's the even if we're going to say it's
the
but the reason would dictate even a
suffic you're allowed to take necessary
precautions and
says that even a
usually we should say
true but if the reason is to keep the
and the involvement the learning going
that would even be required when you
have a suffic of it of course of course
person that's neurotic but everything
under the sun is a suffic so he himself
he's a suffic if he's if he's coming or
going so you can't make every suffic
into a suffic but a legitimate suffic
also and the say this that let's say
it's a v of it but the work you're doing
might not work it might that help. So
the suffic is if it's going to help it's
also because if you're not going to try
it's really it's really going to be very
distracting [clears throat] and the the
interesting and
says
himself says it's a it's
but we don't treat like a we treat it
like a vi distracting and That's how to
define the word
means.
So we would think it has to be said
right like you find
but
why did the why did the why use why you
say so here it's very likely we could
say another
because the is not because such a big
the is because it's distracting it's
disturbing it's taking away from the
and as early as says it's not totally
necessarily in a big loss. When someone
feels he's wasting money,
it's disturbing to him and it's
distracting. So it's has to be
means that it's something he's wasting
money for no reason in his mind. And
that's why it makes sense and all the
say this. It's
the ink when he talks about he says a
person a wise person doesn't waste
anything because it's all their butters
bria given for a purpose and even to
waste a garel
a mustard seed is already a question
about tashkas now it's a kdish because
it's not even
but the message is of guiding us if The
third reason that we said why is because
of
that would work even in a small amount
and say
does not necessarily mean that's but
when someone's mind what's going on is
disturbing him then it's to have an care
I'm going to ask a question I I don't
have a very good ter but I'd love to
hear from the let's say you finished
learning you learned in your study like
what are you supposed to
you and you want to go to the suka or go
to sleep and you're not going to use the
study the whole night. So impulsively
you reach out to close a light in the
study. My question is what's the to
close light in the study? closing a
light is a
okay
but
and
I don't believe at all that this would
be a this would be a a
how much how many pennies would how many
cost to burn a light all night so why is
it mut I'll say but closing a light is
is only my true what's
So I found this in
he has this problem and he quotes that I
mentioned and he says of it is when
people have the perception something's
being wasted and he says that even
though the cost is very minimal but you
know why why is the light burning for no
reason. Now the truth is as time goes on
people are worried less and less about
closing the light but people used to
close the light before they went out. So
he says it's not but it's a it's
disturbing and he says that it's a
different form of
it's a wasting
and then he asked parenthetically and by
the way if you tell me you can't close a
light so you have to keep the light on
for eight or eight or nine days straight
that might add up but I think is that it
means to say is when someone says I have
to I can't close why you're not but it's
burning for no reason maybe it's using
as something of wasting as opposed to
and take it
the is to do it it's probable I saw in
another says this that it could be the
is it's not even a it's a it's a flick
of the hand of the finger so that would
be but until further notice closed
Closing light is mut. We have to know
exactly what's the head. Next question
is when you definitely person definitely
has a dber of it. There's a leak in the
in the roof. Can he do a good job two
coats or he'll do one now and after you
worry about it and how about once he's
doing it can he fix the whole roof. So
again this is another
so why not do the job properly and
do what you have to do and that's it.
Once you have a head of do the job
necessary if typically it's two coatings
do that as well. Now this
and all later quote this it's based on
that once you have a head to the fixed
you do the normal job. Now of course
doesn't mean let's say someone smashed
into someone's yard and broke the gate.
So he has to put up a new gate. So if
for protection he needs a gate up but he
doesn't have to paint it. the dber of it
means you should take away the the the
the potential da d d d d d d d d d d d d
d d d d d d d d damage or or or or
sakono or fear of theft but there's no
to do the whole roof once you're doing
part of it because that's not of it. So
typically we do a we do the right job
and tab in
says if there's mish no difference one
or two so maybe t but typically when you
have to tell the worker to come back a
second time to finish up the job he
charges another you know fee so that
would be a do of so the you could do the
job properly but not the whole job and
thinking as if it's like all or nothing
do what's necessary to remove the do
>> [clears throat]
>> A very important question. We have this
all the time. People call up, they have
a a leak, they have a problem with an
appliance and
who should I call? So, it's a wonderful
sensitivity we supposed to have when we
need a job. When we go shopping,
buy Jewish, hire Jewish, you need a
worker
craftsman that doing great jobs. But on
we have to wonder is it really because
the whole of of
is which means if he doesn't do it it's
going to be go from bad to worse it's
going to be a lot of damage or minimal
damage whatever it is but if you could
have a go do it there's no need for any
to
so since the is and you have an option
to do
maybe
he takes to the extent if you have a
that's going to charge you aid will do
it for free you have to use the
because the dra of is not to get paid
money for the job because it's normal to
pay money for the job that's not a but
the is only when there's no other choice
hey you have a very a viable option have
the guy do it feel and t the seem to say
this for another reason because when you
learn it's pretty clear that when let's
say there's only available there's no go
available can the go can the yid charge
money for his job he could do the job
because you have to relieve someone's
that's not his roof but it's another's
roof so
should fix it but what's the take money
doesn't to leave the do of so it seems
that ideally aid that works should not
take money so but they do charge so I
can't say it's wrong some if he wants
money allowed to give it to him but to
avoid this issue the seem to all agree
ideally when possible have a do the
job I must mention don't call because
you don't know how reliable they are and
you know when you don't have mishba
dictating your life you end up doing
patchup jobs and and no substance. I
know someone that a guy really messed
him up and did a lot of damage more than
good. So make sure that you have a
reliable guy. If not to take time call a
person from the phone book, I wouldn't
advise that. You don't know what he's
going to do. But if you have a worker
that's reliable, it seems all the pesk
agree it would be better to do it
and
is not a factor because has to keep only
of it.
So this is the and let's talk more
specifically I'd like to discuss many sh
let's start with a broken window. Okay.
So it used to be a glass window which is
even dangerous but even today's windows
the windows is doesn't close it's
broken. You don't want to, you know,
it's it's it doesn't keep out any
intruders. So, no doubt about it. Even
though it's a but this people are
nervous, sleep in a house and the
windows are open. It's that would be a
the lock malfunction, it's broken,
whatever it is. So, you need a um we
can't fix it. But being in a home
without a lock is a dra of and is mut
someone asked the shila the wheelchair
broke and you need some you know
soldering you need a m to repair the
wheelchair so the em is the person's not
in danger stay home but here I saw and I
I think it's ais
says this that to tell a person to be
homebound under house arrest is people
like to go to sh they like to go social
like to go to children a family, but to
tell someone that you have to be home
all days cuz you can't fix the the the
wheelchair that's never
speaks about taking off certain
coverings on on a wound
whatever the case is. So the between a
which is
which is awesome now not negated case
but says
he has no pain
if you don't remove this guil he's not
going to go out the whole whole shabas
because he's embarrassed he looks funny
so
not going out of shabas
so so it's it's not it's a of you know
social life or emotional health. So when
someone cannot go out that's the biggest
dra of it. Even though he's okay and
he's clinically he's not sick but if he
needs the wheelchair should be fixed on
that will be dra of it. The beautiful
question we hear this all the time want
to write whether write over
or rewrite writing on
so
there's no sh because this is a this is
a
he's writing with his pen and it's also
a
and indeed
if you heard you're allowed to write it
because you shouldn't forget it. So it
sound like the is more than just
but the taz is not happy with this and
says there's more than that that is
limiting the t says I want to expand the
somewhat
that let's say a person heard on and he
has good memory he'll remember it he'll
sit down after he'll have to rework it
but he'll get it so there's no do of it
so but you know there is
Because after to learn more you learn to
you figured out the now. So after you
have to learn more but what are you
going to have to do? Go back to the and
try to restructure it and figure it out.
So the is quoted often
than wasting time. Now you're not really
wasting time but you could be learning
more and now you have to go back and
review what you learned till now. the
taz is saying the biggest dra of it is
wasting time. So therefore that also
qualifies for a of writing. So even if
it's not going to forget the but if
you're going to learn now and later you
could do more learning that's of now
this what we tell all the time has long
this this year it's four full days. So
you know give him to learn but if he
can't write you know today especially
are busy writing a lot he loses the the
of it the gishmak of it I tell them take
even take old notes and rewrite it
there's no dra of it but for time
quality of learning quantity of learning
and it's a much better learning when you
could write and the t said that now I do
know I know the the
they say he wrote on like a regular day.
No restrictions whatsoever. His the
stipul he's afraid to write. So each has
their own feeling. But one thing I will
tell you I'll read the chubin. It's an
incredible written by one of theis one
of the
he asked
and he received responses. I don't know
how he received it but this is what he
asked. Can I write
on? And the response was
he and they continued that these
that
the most beloved thing in the versam's
eyes and he calls it are those magolius
those gems of limitra
So therefore,
so then he says if for a
few
says
for those
and if you do write
so again if someone knows he could learn
just as well without writing. No,
but if he if he knows like most of us
feel that the learning will be
compromised then let it be
because the whole isra so in this case
especially this is a
this concludes
there's no doubt about it
a gardener shows up on it happens all
the time they know about chabas and
maybe but is out of their range
So the embassies technically you could
be mal and say I didn't tell them they
want to come to even
but here we're worrying about something
called zil
something on our property we don't let
him do it we wouldn't let him do it on
even though you can also say
but the shabas the noise the
is disparaging shabas
needs more
So would be a zily and tell him please
come back even though again might find a
but we find
too important to compromise on.
Someone asked this question he made a he
made a kdish on if I'm not mistaken he
had a baby girl on but he wanted to make
a a kdish and he couldn't make it in.
So he wanted he he wanted to rent a tent
and put up a tent in his backyard and
how make a kdish
question is can you construct a tent on
see you can't wait to put up the tent
you know let's say the baby was born
before yam so that's called but here the
baby's born on y so he couldn't do
before y so the inab is constructing a
tent is a is a of oil but on and He told
me that this tent that he rent was a
small one, not one of these major ones.
This is a so believe it or not
it's a perfect if he's
pushed off doing it until that's
awesome. But this would be a simple case
of of of
repairing appliances whether it's an
oven, a refrigerator, a microwave, an
urn, a appliances is within a different
besides and that's really the
called
we know you're allowed to cook and bake.
You got to take a why.
So the
extends to certainly and this is even
so therefore
it to repair an oven crockpot again
whatever is needed and there's no other
alternative and earn breaks. So again
you need a to repair it but that would
be the of
is also
but this is now I do know that an oven
is not it's
but the say this extends of
which is also
so
would be included in the of
besides now even though you do need an
um to do it. So the of will not work but
the overrides that a broken refrigerator
a broken freezer. So the
freezer broken a few hours it won't get
spoiled but you can't manage the days of
if you don't fix it you're not going so
it can't last that long. So this again
would be a case of
and although you need a um would be
fine. Someone asked interesting to to
repair his washing machine and dryer. So
I told him, you know, we don't make
washes on. Yeah, but he has children and
grandchildren and and he has to make
washes anyhow. So he's right. If he
needs it on, so it's a it's a true but
then of he has no clothing. The whole of
washing is with a gaval of a because you
have no choice. Dryers the pim say
dryers perhaps should not be repaired.
You could you could dry it by hand. You
could hang things up outside or inside.
But definitely a washing machine if you
need it on on it would be you could you
could pay professionals to do it. But
that would be a dra of it. Now a
dishwasher is interesting. Dishwasher
also needs a
but believe it or not people wash dish
with their hands. We do it on so the
pkim seem to say that that's not enough
of a
the fact that you it's easier. You could
wash the dishes by hand unless there's
an extenduating circumstance. A person
can't wash whatever by hand. This would
not be a of a because you could wash it
by hand. Last year we had sukis that was
very cold. If you remember it was much
later in the season and there was shas
where people wanted to put on the steam
and it wasn't working.
So the question is can you repair steam
heat on? So this is the tells even
regarding Shabas I call
people are sensitive to excessive cold
and you even call a onas to put on the
steam on the heat. So certainly on to
repair the heating
the tricky question this year last year
was much later this year is very early
we might have problems with the air
conditioning sh because let's say it's
not working and person can't manage so
we might think well listen you'll manage
without it I'll manage without it could
be but let me tell you what is
as we You know Rabenu Aadesh had a
certain relationship with Antonyinus the
melik
and once antinus was traveling he said
Rabenu give me a bra. So he says I give
you a braha. You should be protected
from the cold. So says that's a brah I
could put I don't need you. I can put on
a sweater. I'm fine.
You're right. So you know what I give
you? That you should be protected from
the heat. So
that's a good
so from we see not just story an
unbelievable insight some the the the
the
pain of excessive heat could be worse
than excessive cold excessive cold
beyond put on a sweater and another
sweater but heat you can't escape from
the heat
>> okay second laa Um the the would be like
you may like you as so why do we find
the heat we didn't have any we have an
air conditioning today
he feels to have a go put on the air
condition on shabas when it's taka very
very hot it's unbearably heat hot is
and it's very mant of course if some
people are are a little more tolerant
they have they could deal more with the
heat so Each person has a sensitivity
but in
that if it's very very hot and the
should be repaired even
in the
was but he said do it in a way that
would not be mazal in mo
stern
used to say to put on air conditioning
or or in in a in a home but not in a
He goes because in it's a zil unless you
could do it no one's there. In other
words, these type of things create a
certain zil which really trying to
eliminate but
says it's mut in that case to do it as
long as it doesn't create a zilz. Now
someone asked the question the dining
room lights were not working but there's
an you could use candles. So here you
have you need an um to fix it. But then
again we are used to it even though I'm
old they didn't have lights but eating
in the dark we know from Shabas Shabas
you don't have the full shabas. So the
say that to sit in the dark dark dining
room and even they put a candle or two
and they call it the candle light but
we're not used to that type of ambiance.
We need light. So this would be of and
repairing the lights in the dining would
be mut
glasses that broke and you need an to
repair it. So
if someone can't see and they can't walk
in the street so obviously
but there's a more significant that we
have to know the says inv it's an
unbelievable insight on based on a
and listen to the
And could do anything regarding
beautifification
and everything everything is
all beautifification is. Why is it
this is a form of
this is their
to look nice and of course for ush
that's all nice but the end of the day
there is a of
says for us what is the the is
putting on heat that's but and here the
P say this clearly but when something is
needed for that person and we'll soon
see what what that means
that is considered
so that's why on

about fixing eyelasses on chabas. Now
unfortunately he doesn't write the

there like it's not eating but surviving
the shab in
says that's the same replies to
repairing hearing aids even though we
need a real um but this considered a
a phone is not working. So again, it
used to be a landline phone in a house
and if it wasn't working, it was
problems. So the embassy, we can't say
it's a saka to be home without a phone,
but it definitely uncomfortable and a
little nerve-wracking. You never know,
maybe someone's calling in, maybe have
to call out. So the pkim assumed that to
leave a house without a phone is
something we could call. Again, we're
not eating the phone obviously, but it's
a basic necessity that leaves a person
very concerned and worried what will
happen. You know, nothing should happen,
but you have to have a phone. So that's
why in the in in earlier times a phone
you know phone company came down and it
was a big uh peressia but to leave a
home where children especially children
older people are living is somewhat of a
today when people have cell phones and
the truth is if your phone breaks they
tell you we'll be there you know within
a month we'll be there don't worry but
ma we'll we'll we'll transfer all your
phone calls that you get on this line to
your cell phone so the cell phone will
suffice. So probably today if you do
have a cell phone then don't repair the
regular phone you can manage and and
you're not losing anything as far as the
necessity of having a phone.
The Ramo
quotes what I told you earlier that a
person that Isa could do all type of
beautifification
but you look in the gor it's an
incredible

is an a young woman
but an an old woman not. So

even your grandmother

why so rashi explains because this is
the nature of nashim now it's something
for a man you have to understand it's
almost y tell us what's for man for
nashim
the famous
we go on and on. But the point this is a
tremendous insight that makes every
morning
this is her nature. It's not a weakness.
It's the bria. So why do I say this?
Because
what does that mean? Nice for God. more
than than you could handle. So when
coming and there's a
it's a attitude it's there
and you see this come out everything is
and I'll tell you I'll leave it as a
because
but it's a beautiful let's say set the
before okay my son is caught in the rain
and she's embarrassed she can't go to
the second day I have to reset the but
everybody knows that is a so what's the
so if she's so embarrassed she won't go
to maybe
but there's some say could be this is a
special include in our
maybe this also
but then again if this that says
and even if she's not married but that's
the nature of it could
to go to when it was not
and
maybe this included the special that we
we don't take haircuts or shave or
launder on on
but if you don't do it you if you do it
on you might end up doing it always and
not doing before so
then maybe the the of setting a like
washing a including the of
and that even though it's a person feels
uncomfort
but that's a special so that's
setting a this unusual attitude gives us
but no doubt about it it gives us an
insight of our our daughters this is the
and has to be satisfied especially in
Someone asked this question, the
elevator was not working. Can he have of
course you need an um to repair it? So
obviously if people installed an
elevator then people need it. So again
it would be keeping a person under house
arrest otherwise. So that's one one but
there's another hat I must mention at
least briefly
says
why is that? Because if it's
a contemporary example of would be an
elevator because typically you don't
have it in a private home. You could
have it in a shul in a shopping store in
a apartment building. So if there is a
that would legitimize even doing a
the is what does it mean to him? So we
think like just 600,000 people. It's
like the the know could be even three
people like
believe it or not
what is
three people. So it would apply as well.
So so therefore an elevator repair which
is probably
or the
mikvah repairs
repairing a washing dry in the mikvah.
So that the is also the only issue is
there are more limits
has to be
so we could say
but says something incredible he says
people ask me he would say those that
work for government agencies I don't
want to say name there are so many
wonderful organizations but they're
organizations whether they're funded by
governments or volunteers but they're
there to help the rabbi in in a wide
array of of of scenarios. They could be
open
people that there to help with with with
food and other things, whatever it may
be. Again, it's it's a wide spectrum of
of of of organizations.
But these would be
I saw an interesting Shilish.
So they put up these paranches bleaches
we called them in English. So that's a
question is is that they say what do you
mean it's
but says
if it's so I saw one of the say yeah
because if not going to have these
bleaches there's going to be stopping.
So it is a avoiding
a a a form of but if it makes the
more manageable that's probably the of
of a
general question is there a
mitzvah in other words we see a mitzvah
allows us to ask
is there
regarding
So the
two rights
the terror has to be not a because a
mitzvah of keeping
and here's the catch. If you could do
the mitzvah after or it's a mitzvah
it's a mitzvah
it could wait. So then it's on a
mitzvah.
But let's say you have a mitzvah. Let's
you have a shil putting up and for some
reason you need a let's say it's on a on
a steel door. If you don't do it, you're
going to lose a mitzvah every moment.
It's like the this
so
writing that you don't need it. Why you
doing that?
Why are you doing it? Do it after. But
let's say you have only say is this one
that needs correction of how you do it.
Now this would would imply maybe it's
more than implied. This would indicate
if someone wants to make a a
he shouldn't leave the the last letters
to be written on because that he could
do before that's there's no that's avoid
but the point seems to be this a mitzvah
that's
versus just a a and it's avoid
So now we have to rethink a little bit.
We said
that's true. If there's no other you you
could correct it typically it should not
be done even
someone built a suk and he's not an um
obviously and the suka collapsed. Can he
rebuild the ony?
So if it's a today most you know it's
basically all follow directions
but
otherwise it won't last. So this look
happened the first time that you didn't
call it um some people have sukas in in
in unusual areas that they need some
type of of of of a a permanency. You
can't just do the the typical. So if you
need the the otherwise you won't be able
to sit in the suk that will qualify for
be a
to make a very beautiful fancy no
even though it's a nice but it's not a
mitzvah and that should be limited to a
putting up almost always is a mah that's
fine
putting on some people buy until they
they put the onto the beggar it takes
them it pushed them time to time if
that's a and if they'll wear it on on on
the second day that would be fine as I
told you earlier the correcting say is
the biggest how important how careful we
have to be to make sure that the taco
works the based on a misha says
a protective fence is
not but the caution says as well that's
because the mice will do the trick. But
if for some reason the mice will not
protect anybody then you have to do a m
because of the physical danger but it's
also the
so you have to learn the and understand
that the mish is talking about in a
regular case that is good enough. He
puts a knock some beams of wood and keep
a protection but if need be the is also
fixing the which is need of course for
the upcoming shabas whether it's or the
last days. So that would be a
people are going to carry not know the
is broken. Also the fact that you need
people that got used to the is this
considered and more often than not
fixing is a so therefore that was
a
it's only
no real and more than that it's only a
you don't need muchness and that's fine.
Plumbing needs basically if a person's
honest with himself he knows when it's a
do of it or not. But a leak has to be
found and has to be treated. It it could
deteriorate. That's a real potential do
of now stuffed sink stuff. So you have
to just know the mitas if he needs it.
If he has a a lot of children and one's
not one bath not enough, one sink's not
enough. So first of all plunging me and
you do that's a
but if he needs more serious work then
if he can't manage with what he has as
it is this would be considered a a
bathroom a sink is a real and even a
would be m car repairs I think are the
most challenging because car repairs are
always a unless a jump start or fixing
it flat but so what's
is not a the only would be if he has to
go visit or go to his parents to go to
the
and to to to hire car service to go both
ways long distance out of state and wait
and everything that might be a but in
theory fixing a car is most problematic
so I'm ask what are you worrying about
fixing what about going in a car why
isn't going in a car only
because it's a it's a so he said I I
think he was serious. He says, "Anybody
knows how to drive to drive carefully or
safe that you need an um but driving big
deal. You put your foot on there go." So
he tight driving a car is a miser.
Now bicycle is certainly for children is
very important. Bicycle is hard to know
what's you have to look at it. But one
thing I will say someone asked me he
bought a bicycle and it arrived in can
he assemble on his own? I said, "I never
did this before." And I asked around and
most people told me you could do it just
follow directions. Somebody said, "It's
impossible. It's so confusing. I I'm
getting the feeling that you could if
you follow directions, you do it
patiently. You don't need a misman." And
therefore, that's mut
lessons technically might be mut, but
it's a zil and yumpt in a very big way.
Some said, "But I want to learn after
yumptive." I said, "You know what? learn
a like gave us and after if you go your
driving lessons the you know all senra
is being you know misconstrued that's
not the of
repairing a bus believe it or not would
be a of
so it's more of a than a car that's even
moving moving there's
it might not be per se but it's the zil
It's the attention. It's the whole you
know activity that really is disparaging
and typical
regarding moving on on unless someone
has no place to live. It's it's a very
rare situation but typically moving
should be done before after y sewing on
a button to a begged or fixing a hem. So
here this is a little challenging
because the says that
of sewing is considered.
So once it's
not enough
so if someone has a tear in his pants
and if he doesn't fix it it's going to
get much worse. That's a that's even an
um but let's say putting on a button or
fixing the hem. So the pisk say that
there is a ha of sewing with a with a
means let's say if there's four holes in
a button just do two of them do it that
it stays and if the you'll you'll
correct it now but this is a different
once it's ove you're allowed you're
allowed to do but here the the point is
that felt that this is there's no had to
do this because you could do you could
you could do it and manage without this
complete job so the p recommend And for
a man to do it is always mut because
that's a shiny. A man sewing is built
in. Unless he's a tailor. But for an
issue to do it should do it with a
shino. The hem should be done. You know
if you could use a safety pins even
better. But basically you have to do it
to get away with it. It should work.
Someone asked about binding on
you don't need a college degree but
that's a because iron you can't do it.
So that's only if it's for the use of
the shul but to do it now for later.
That's awesome. And last but not least,
an important d to mention is the
question of spot cleaning. Spot cleaning
cleaning is very because even though
made a special
but the seem to be comfortable to say
spot cleaning which mean just you have a
stain here you want to get it off that
is not
spot cleaning is to be represent you
should you should be able to should look
like a mench. You don't want to have a
revival.
So spot cleaning is a that's not a so
it's back to the old of a
shak.

and leave after the seeum. Sh.
>> Okay. One thing we learned has an
unusual kaduca with unusual potential to
focus on and
that's why we treat like a like a

important the attitude has to be proper
and correct the main
alone
is only when
we see to the extent even
which is the most accurate even
correcting is because unless it's a
legitimate
or or a or a there would be no
as we said is only when you have writing
a shopping list and IU any or writing
bakl notes and learning is mut and
advisable when when it's needed to learn
that's not a problem of
of because it's a basic
the also say a suffic is also and
means things are being wasted. It's the
attitude a broken window would be
considered a dra to keep safety closing.
We had a wonder about why closing lights
when it's not needed for sleeping why
that's not a problem but the meaning is
to close the lights a once you have a
you could do the job properly but not
the entire job just do what's necessary
in in the quality of the work for the
place the leak or the hole that should
be done properly the better to get a
worker than a yish worker if there's no
choice only a has to do
and paying him should ask him but he's
allowed to take money like any pup. So
you can't just say I'm not paying you.
You have to work it out with him. A a
lock a broken lock or a a wheelchair we
said is mut because you have the person
has to get out. The
of applies to all mitz as we'll soon see
a gardener should be told to come back
after
a putting up a tent a small tent which
not is fine. Appliances for food is
a washing machine if needed to be
repaired. A dryer better not a
dishwasher better not heating or AC or
lights in dining room are all cases of
eyeglasses hearing aid repairing a phone
the phone again
have a special broad of
that's the
we said includes even three people that
need it fixing an elevator but it has to
be at also So repairing a suka or
putting up a suka if need be even but
not putting onto a beggar is okay.
Correcting nothing else is fine.
