uh tonight actually I have a very uh
interesting uh
that actually starts with a question as
a matter of fact it's a question that
somebody asked
uh so um but it's also connected to our
palasha and it's connected to last
night's Shield it's connected to a lot
of things will try to do our best to uh
keep the time
uh to around an hour before we start
taking your other questions but there's
other sham I think that once you hear
some of the uh things uh you may not
even want to ask questions because he'll
be dumbfounded at how extraordinary and
endless Artois Hashem how everything is
in it as the missionary says
delve into it and delve into it because
everything is in it
so the uh the question is uh if somebody
did something bad to me
am I allowed to hate him now everyone
knows the answer is uh no you're not
allowed to hate because we have a
mitzvina Torah it says that uh you have
to love another Jew you're not allowed
to keep a grudge and so on and so forth
uh but at the same token we have it says
that if he specifically did something
bad to you such as take money then
you're allowed to hate him as long as he
uh has not returned the money so it's
not exactly such a simple meat spot
there's other details to it that we're
going to get into there's other details
to it
uh are we allowed to take revenge what
all depends what did you do what did he
do and so on and so forth
so last night in the shoe last night
we brought a hedush
by the khatam so fell
who uh brings
how come how come
the Torah Scholars of that day
uh although they were Scholars their
children were not Scholars because
normally you would assume that
someone that has someone that's a
scholar and dedicates their life to
Torah their children should also be
Scholars but that wasn't the case and
the gamara brings a rebuke on the sages
of that day those Scholars of that day
uh and says that because they didn't
bless the Torah
didn't bless the Torah so then the
khatam suffer says what does it mean
they didn't bless the toy they didn't do
a blessing no it doesn't mean that it
means that they use the Torah those
sages in that time use the Torah in
order to beautify their own personal
world but not necessarily do a fulfill
the Torah in order to sanctify hashem's
name in order to do the Torah for uh for
the because it's the will of Hashem
because they misunderstood one of the
which is that you uh have to love uh
you must love uh your brother like you
love yourself and uh this is the uh
this is a big teachings in the Torah
it's a big Rule and they in essence like
unfortunately many do today have turned
that into the entire instead of a big
rule in itala and there's a very big
difference between this being Dean title
and this being a big rule in a tour when
you get to the reason based on Hashem of
why what does it mean to be a big rule
and uh because at the end of it all
says
create the world other than the for
reason for the reason of us to fear Him
so in essence telling us that if a
person
learns Torah does mitzvot and learns how
to fear kadoshburg who he has fulfilled
his purpose but if he doesn't even if he
knows the entire oral to Lion ringtone
by heart but he does not have fear of
the almighty it's better off he didn't
do anything it's as if he did nothing
he'll get punished even for his daughter
why because
the fear of the almighty that's his
treasure so in essence it tells us in
many places
many many other places that the fear of
the almighty is the the main treasure
it's the main purpose in the world uh
and uh there is no such thing as
sanctifying hashem's name without
fearing him first and many people
confuse this but they say wait a minute
but why should I fear when uh you know
it sounds so scary when really I could
go to a much nicer version that some
other uh you know a Care Bear type of a
teacher is uh telling me that I should
just love everybody you know be a uh you
know uh lovey-dovey Kumbaya where they
violate Shabbat and Asmara intermarried
and eats pig that doesn't matter I
should love him anyway because he's a
Jew shouldn't I just listen to that
sounds much nicer Torah says no you're
not allowed to do such a thing and the
Care Bear Rabbi should also do true love
with you because he's misteaching you
he's misunderstanding the Torah and the
uh says that the uh brings this
and it's actually quoted in a few places
by the khatam so far that uh this is the
reason why the sages got punished at
that time because they misused the
terrain in essence used the Torah in
such a way that it was just to beautify
their own personal lives and not
necessarily to sanctify kadoshburgu's
name so even Scholars uh and we're not
talking about the scholars that uh you
know are are uh uh the greatest teachers
in history but you know a certainly uh
Scholars at that time can make mistakes
can make mistakes and uh many people do
make these mistakes where they read
something and they don't look at the
entire teaching they just look at one
single statement and make a conclusion
based on that single statement and nine
out of ten times you're gonna arrive at
the wrong conclusion uh because the
Torah is a uh uh endless endless uh well
uh where if you learn the different
aspects of different things you'll see
that there's a lot more to everything
it's not nothing is concluded with a
single statement
but with that being said uh people have
made the mistake in the past even though
when they were Scholars people are
making that mistake in this generation
so much so that the wicked uh Rabbi in a
frat uh
um risking that we talked about uh
recently that is uh creating all types
of uh mum zerim in the world and all
types of desecration of Hashem his
talmid Brandis uh he uh just uh uh was
quoted in an article where he's proud to
announce of his uh appointment of the
new Chief Orthodox Rabbi of a certain
shul in ephrat in Israel
a woman a woman she's religious uh
there's no question about how
religiosity as far as whether she keeps
Shabbat or not but to say that a woman
is going to be the chief Rabbi in so
many words of a synagogue nothing like
that has ever happened in the Orthodox
world nothing ever like that will happen
in the Orthodox world and so but we just
quoted something they're not Orthodox
they're reform but they like to call
themselves Orthodox just like my dear
friend from the good of a banim told me
in the old days it was very simple if
you're a reform you called yourself
reform if you are a conservative you
call yourself conservative if you are
Orthodox you call yourself Orthodox
today the reform called themselves
Orthodox and the Orthodox call
themselves Orthodox you have no idea
what's going on until you see what what
people are doing and it's unfortunate
but uh this is this whole expression of
love to this woman that is leading now a
key lie now it's Israel is the story
version of this very same thing that we
talked about yesterday which is to love
everybody and that's the whole Torah
it's not the hotel
it's a big rule but it's not the hotel
in fact there's even a Mitzvah to hate
certain people them specifically because
they're violating the tala but there are
certain things you're not allowed to do
so this is some of the things we're
going to go into today who you're
allowed to hate who you're obligated to
hate even who you're not allowed to hate
who you're you're obligated to love
and so on and so forth and what what
does it really mean to uh to uh to love
another Jew what does it really mean
