she saying that she heard for the first
time that I said that a woman is like a
sepher Tora that is she's holy she's
like a queen and she's not she can't
touch the seph Tora I didn't say she
can't touch can touch theph
T but to to read out of it and to to do
what a man
does she said it's the first time she
heard that I that that a woman is like a
queen and two queens cannot be together
and rather she heard that a woman cannot
touch a SE because she maybe she has rep
period or stuff like that nonsense
there's not one source in the Tor that
you find that a woman is not allowed to
be next to the seph T cuz she's in her
cycle there's no such a
thing that that's a whole different
thing when the woman is not pure when
the woman is not pure because of her
cycle her husband can't touch her but
that has nothing to do with the Torah
even a man is not allowed to touch the
parchment man that touch the parchment
according to order to touch the
parchment you want to move the parchment
you hold it with a t or something you
know how to touch the parchment
unfortunately nowadays people touch the
Tora like as if it's a toy there's no
respect for the Torah I mean men are not
allowed to touch the Torah what I'm
saying is that listen first of all in
the Torah there are many levels of
explanations this is called of an
acronym of what's called
pareses is an orchard but the acronym
ofes
ISAT is what's called a simple
explanation and then remes is a hint and
Das is you dissect it and S is the
secret so there's explanations of
everything but the mystical explanation
by a woman is not the the the doesn't
allow her to go after the Tor not to
touch the SE is because she's holy
that's it if she has her cycle that's a
whole different thing but this is not
why a woman is not touching the Tor when
they take out the seph T and they pass
it around the women touch the seph T
they kiss it kiss they can kiss it but
you know they kiss it when the Torah is
covered but that's not the reason if
somebody tells us they don't know what
they talking about and you know
unfortunately in our generation people
say oh I I I I heard it here I heard it
there no just yesterday somebody called
me and he told me I heard that this R I
said this this and this so I said
without a source it's not valid if you
want to say people come now to and say
the say yeah where pull the book and
show
me 99% of the people who standing here
and say the Z say the says that every
even saw it you want to say the Z says
come and tell me which page it is I want
to see with my eye and then I'll I'll
see if it really says that so in our
generation many people says oh I heard
when we had when we were kids there was
a game we called it broken phone
telephone shab I tell you something you
tell it to her you tell it to her you
tell it to her that person is a
completely different story so a person
sits in a sh T and then he says I heard
I heard I
heard no such a thing the Torah is clear
and obvious and everything you want to
quote the Torah you say this is where I
heard it this is where I learned it this
is where I saw it you can come and say
oh you know I I heard it no it doesn't
work like that because 99% I'm not
joking 99 of people they stand oh thear
says like this and this midash says like
that show me show me show me the source
not long AG come somebody come and told
me you know it says in this like this
and like
that said you know I never heard it I
told him you know in which page yeah I I
know which page so we pull out the and I
read I told him you didn't understand it
right yeah you're right it says the
words but you didn't understand it right
but at least here we have a source I can
look and say oh no you didn't read it
the right
way but most people unfortunately
especially in our generation people
become
religious unfortunately in our day
people they became religious and two
weeks later they become you know the
speaker of the town and everybody comes
to listen they don't even know nothing
about the Torah and they come and oo and
they throw big titles and they totally
mislead the people and they teach also
the things that it's I I never even
heard of nonsense like that and where I
live there's also a person comes the
city of cabala he teaches kabala he
doesn't know nothing he doesn't know
nothing he doesn't even know where it it
how can you teach cabala if you don't
even follow the
Torah so and the nonsense that I hear
what people go there nonsense so
unfortunately in our generation people
come oh in the Z it says like this and
like that don't quote if you don't know
exactly the page and that you read it
and understood it so people come and say
oh I heard like this and like that no
don't hear open the book show me where
it says in the book then I'll believe
you then I'll I'll see maybe there's an
argument between two sources you know
there's many sources rambam will say one
thing and will come a different Rabbi
and says no I don't agree with what
rambam says but it has to be an
explanation why he doesn't agree it has
to be an explanation and you know
sometimes it doesn't agree with one
thing unfortunately in our generation
everybody
is everybody knows everything everybody
knows the Torah inside out and the
reality is nobody knows no nothing and
they just throw things out there and
becomes a whole big confusion and people
say but I heard and my you know that I I
used to teach I used to live in New York
I had a group of Syrian men that every
two weeks we had
a 40 men one time one of them comes and
tells me you know that the I my because
we were talking about stealing in
business cheating in
business so he comes and tells me one I
met a rabbi who told me that I'm allowed
to steal from a
gentile what I told him who told you
that he said he said he didn't say the
name doesn't matter the name he said I a
certain Rabbi told me I'm allowed to
steal from a gentile told him are you
out of your mind who told you such a
thing and I told him who's who's the
muga who told you such a thing where
does it say in the Torah that you're
allowed to steal from a it says it
doesn't
says says Lov you know you're not
allowed to steal from a dog even you're
not allowed to steal from anything Lov
is Lov don't steal told them Who's the
who told you such a thing here you have
two sins stealing
and how dare you even who them I can't
even fathom so people come and they're
looking for the discounts it's very easy
to find the discounts people look for
the rabbis who give
discounts why because I don't want to be
so strict give me the easy way so the
same way a lot of people try to find
where to talk about the Tor so people
say oh you know the Torah the woman
she's
impure Maybe I'm Wrong maybe there is a
source to that but I never saw any
source that says if a woman she doesn't
go get called to the Torah because of
that the point is that anything that
somebody tells
you we have
bookshelves you go you open the book by
yourself you read it and if you don't
understand you go to the rabbi and you
tell him I don't understand this line
what does the Torah mean and you go what
with the book says not what what
somebody told you and that's the problem
in our generation that I'm not
exaggerating 90% is wrong wrong there's
no Source stre in the Torah no Source in
people are inventing things people are
giving themselves discounts based on
nothing people are now teaching and
learning all sorts of nonsense now it's
very popular everybody learns cabala
nobody learns cabala trust
me trust me my Rabbi is a very big mikal
he sells on himself that he doesn't
learn cabala how can you learn cabala
nonsense how mean can learn some
terminology and some explanations yes
trust me you open it you're not going to
understand one word one word you're not
going to understand so yeah you can say
some introduction about the concept or
explain something but people are
distorting the truth already to a
pointed in our generation the toah that
is delivered to
people most of it is not even true and
unfortunately you see in the internet
every everybody becomes a speaker person
becomes religious after two weeks that's
it he's a rabbi he doesn't even know
nothing that's the B and the problem is
the Torah tells you you want to really
know the you go to the book open the
book you can't read you go to a a
reputable Rabbi that will read you what
it says and you derive your knowledge
from there because B has a lot of
misconception in many many different
things so that's the problem that people
are looking at religious people and
they're saying oh that's repres
represent God they don't represent God
the Torah represents
God it's very easy to put a keep on and
to put a beard you go to the source you
read from the source what you don't
understand you find somebody to explain
it to you and then you see that Tora is
PIM it's pearls everything makes sense
everything is unbelievable wisdom
everything makes
sense tell now to a woman I'm sorry you
can't come next to the Torah cuz you are
a
queen oh now I understand why I don't
have to put fine on why I don't have to
wear
T you explain to a person why
they oh that makes sense love you didn't
put me down you didn't insult me you
didn't make me feel like I'm like
this toora is only about respecting
human
beings
