KI TAVO: Secret Key Turns Curses Into Blessings - STUMP THE RABBI (217)

we're back here on our Wednesday night rabi where after some that are relevant to day-to-day life that are relevant to uh life in general you guys will then ask some questions and will give us some answers tonight's Sho is for the for Leana and I almost forgot also uh davidov Ben and will bless all of those that bless us and uh help all those that curses do but if they're will wipe them out of the Earth soon so uh of course many of you that follow us closely have seen the Breakthrough that happened today with the release of the uh new app uh but before that I want to remind everyone that right now being that it's the high holidays uh season is coming up this is the time where we have our most important campaign of the year to help as many people as possible uh and uh commit we've committed already uh more than we've ever done before we're expecting to help over 10,000 Jewish people eat and have a extraordinary holiday in is uh to help them financially to provide them food to provide them things that they need so they could celebrate the uh with uh with joy and Shalom never with any any type of Anguish uh with that being said we had to rely on we have to uh make these commitments well before we know how we're going to pay them and this anyone that's been following us uh and learning with us for over the years knows that this is the uh way that the organization uh has always been we simply throw into everything we uh get into it to test our to test our and we rely on to to help us uh and uh this is has worked in extraordinary things has provided us a enormous and everything that we've done uh whether it's the Torah learning the Torah teaching the helping hundreds of thousands of people uh in and different parts of the world uh you know uh in in financially and medically uh with all types of things with uh I don't even know how many weddings we've uh We've helped and uh orphans and widows and uh all types of wonderful people that just simply needed somebody to be the messenger of hem uh to help them uh and we have uh wonderful people like yourself that have been uh partners with us and we ask for you to be our support again and this time to do more than you've ever done before simply because the cause and the need is much greater than before but of course one of the big questions is uh you know uh how do I push myself further uh how do I push myself further if uh you know listen I'm comfortable giving a th000 I'm comfortable giving 500 I'm comfortable giving 5,000 but uh stretch it and go uh 50% more 100% more uh that uh maybe it's getting me worried maybe this maybe that so this is actually going to be part of what we're going to talk about tonight in this uh and really the biggest uh issue is uh to help all of those people that feel like they have a uh a cursed life and uh discover a key that b we've learned and developed even further uh uh than what we've discussed in the past uh a key that actually uh sages teach that could help you turn a life that feels like it's a life of curses into a life of blessings so anyone that wants to donate at the campaign and push themselves further to help Amis to help our organization get to all four corners of the world you could uh go to the uh campaign website BH YK uh.org or the link is going to be on the screen and on the description uh and also if you join our WhatsApp uh groups and WhatsApp page you'll see the uh campaign everywhere uh the bhr is giving us a little bit of uh trouble we'll wait for it to do chva and it'll work for everyone because right now sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't but at the end of it all if somebody really wants to uh be partners with Messengers to help to publicize A's name to glorify his name to glorify the the the truth of the toah then uh you found the place especially people that uh could appreciate a good Miracle uh who doesn't need more miracles and you can see over two dozen of our students of our uh previous year donors that have donated the larger amounts that have stretched themselves literally report open Miracles and each and every one of them almost says this is only a small part of the Miracles that I've gotten meaning that this is just a couple of stories I'm picking that are the Miracles it's not everything that happened so the uh the stories continue to grow it's amazing to be partners with with people like that uh and we're looking to uh help many many more people uh in uh in their lives in every way especially uh those that are willing to help themselves so that's the campaign but I know that many of you are waiting for the big news waiting for the big news and if you have not watched the video that we just published about an hour ago uh and uh perhaps you heard me say and uh the promise you uh just uh yesterday and uh that we're going to have a major announcement today uh and uh something I've been talking about uh you know subliminally uh for a long time which is the release of our new app or extension to our existing app the beatm app uh which is AI Rabbi now this is something that is revolutionary I could uh assure you it's not perfect nothing is perfect other than a there are certainly things that uh you know computers will uh will make mistakes on you know but uh we we did everything we could to make it as good as we possibly can uh and we're going to continue working on it uh but as one of my uh uh colleagues says computers are stupid they only do what you say they don't think for themselves so so it's this is very appropriate here but this AI RAB I highly recommend you watch that video that I uh sent out uh and uh you're going to be amazed at the capabilities of what this app is I'm only going to do a very very short uh uh demonstration for you right now just to give you a little bit a little bit a little bit of your attention a little bit of your uh interest and then you're going to see the rest of it on your own from the video and obviously from trying it out so the app as you can see it's uh it's going to be both on iOS as well as Android I think Android may be like tomorrow or the next day uh in some places but needless to say it's going to be on both so don't worry the uh that's for the independent app but the beem app is already approved it's already there so you could actually use the AI Rabbi uh on on our regular app just go to be to in the App Store b z r a t h s h m uh on the App Store you'll download our app and on the bottom of that app you'll see that uh it's already there but if you want an independent app that's uh again like I said so with that being said you look at the AI what's the point of AI Rabbi the point of AI Rabbi is to provide you answers to your questions ideological questions that you have what do Judaism uh believe in this what does the Torah say about that uh who was uh what was the name of abu's mother what was the uh names of such and such in the all types of questions that you have that are going to help you in your learning it certainly is not going to replace your Rabbi it certainly is not going to replace you actually studying from the books from the shim that we have the lectures that we have but it is something that's supplemental and one of the beautiful things that it has is that it has a uh database that uh we have uh worked on to uh to compile to do the research to make sure that it's reliable it's not just going off of the general internet we selected some of the best sources that we can possibly find that will uh you know supplement the uh the main source which is 14,000 lectures that we've made over the last decade or so some of those lectures are still not in the system yet and those will be added uh into the database in the coming weeks so the uh the bre of the uh of the operation will continue to grow tremendously but in addition to our lectures uh you also have the database coming from different major whether it's Vidor Miller zir Cohen the uh uh um a uh the the de online the bed in uh in Lakewood uh you have uh also mfi one of the different that have reliable answers according to according to the Tora and of course we're also going to have the books the books by our own dear R FR my books are also going to be in the database an enormous amount of knowledge that you can rely on now if you can ask for questions uh about uh stories about specific uh rabbis you want a story for your kids you want a story for Shabbat you want a uh uh something funny you want something scary you want something about a specific lecture that I have all of that is going to be in there so you're going to have a lot of fun with it h andem it's going to address Torah questions it's not going to address uh you know uh uh a questions about uh you know whether I like cats or I don't like cats that's not it's not going to answer uh but uh so you go to the app you press the app you see beautiful work by the uh by the team uh it's going to tell you some of the features of the app it speaks over 30 languages and that's going to continue to grow Hebrew Hebrew is not complete yet meaning the text in Hebrew is uh okay the uh audio in Hebrew is not available yet B that's going to come in the uh next uh quarter in the next few months uh but you do have Spanish Portuguese Russian uh Chinese uh I think even you have Arabic lots of languages are already in it so if you uh have uh yourself or family members that speak different languages and you want it and you're more comfortable hearing or or reading in that language ask in that language the the key of learning T is to learn it in the language that you understand that's the key of the so you'll have this app uh you'll ask it questions and uh let's see you have all you know there are obviously some you know suggestions that you could ask uh what's the uh blessing that we say for instant oatmeal uh you know give me a sh about that talks abouta um uh what are the punishments for wasting seed you know there all types of questions that the system will recommend to you if you don't have anything that you want you just want to test it out uh but uh let's see you know there's a random question do we uh say uh let's see do we say Hal on the 4th of July obviously the answer is no but once you press that you will see that the uh the system second okay hold on I didn't verify the system yet uh oh okay so this is okay so we're having a little bit of yet here it's not working let me see if it's working elsewhere okay very good all right so okay so you'll see so I asked over here what are the most important things to teach my children you know this was a simple text the uh system responded to me with a audio response because that's what I chose I chose instead of getting a text response it CHS an audio response and the audio response sounds like my voice most important things to teach your children are honesty and the fear of Heaven the Shak says the most crucial quality to instill in kids from a young age is complete honesty reward them when they admit wrongdoing instead of punishing so they learn the immense value of truthfulness this is how one great safar's father raised him to be impeccably honest Source 44 equally vital is to teach them fear and awe of the almighty so you'll see that the uh you know even though sometimes the accent for Hebrew words is not perfect anyone that watches my lectures knows that you know it's what what these things mean but usually when it says anything it says it in English as well you have an option of getting the answer in text you have the option of getting the answer in uh audio uh in addition to that you're also going to get sources for that the system used that you could look for further information so one of them and the key is our lectures we have thousands and thousands of lectures and the system will pinpoint where I spoke about your question in one of the lectures it'll give you usually three or more sources uh so for example here it's giving me uh three different lectures I pick Let's just pick the first one it's just a little bit a little bit fake a little bit of a lie and it gives you it gives you a uh the lecture uh and a Tim stamp six minute into this 10-minute uh clip that's where I talk about this particular question also one of the things that you can see right here is that it works through WhatsApp it's not just through the app I personally prefer to use the WhatsApp system uh and it works through the WhatsApp you could ask it with with your voice you could ask it with text uh point being is that the system itself is absolutely amazing uh and it certainly could be a uh supplement for your uh you know your undergo questions you need to know what the blessing is on something you need to know uh you know what's the name of a certain Rabbi that I mentioned in the lecture or whatever it is you want to give your uh kids a uh you know a nice story on your Shabbat table and you forgot to learn one before Shabbat you were too busy with you were too busy with five minutes before Shabbat you could ask the system a question you'll get an answer you'll get uh a story and this certainly is something that could help is get closer to a which is the point of everything now the uh the uh application is a uh uh for subscribers meaning that uh you know you'll get five questions for free just to test it out after that you'll have to pay a small uh fee each month uh based on the amount of questions that uh you want to have and I could assure you that uh it's very affordable and and and certainly something that you're going to use a lot more than you can imagine because once you uh once you start uh using it you're going to literally become addicted to it because it has so much information uh that sometimes you don't have time to to ask the rabbi sometimes you don't feel comfortable asking the rabbi you know there are certain uh questions that uh you know people are embarrassed to ask because perhaps they're not so close to their Rabbi or whatever it is again this does not replace your Rabbi it's not foolproof there are going to be issues there will be bugs there will be here and there but of course the the key is that it's a uh it's it's certainly something that can help you in a tremendous way I personally use it and it's a uh sometimes people ask me a question where I spoke about something in a specific lecture you know many times I may remember that I spoke about it but not obviously not where this system Narrows down that answer where I could literally provide the answer in two seconds where not only I give him the answer but I give him exactly where I spoke about it and sometimes when it's a multiple times so enjoy it this is a enormous investment uh by our organization uh whether it's uh developers that we had to hire or it's all types of uh Investments of subscriptions and uh Technologies and systems and endless amount of time endless amount of sacrifice and uh I I can't tell you how much Blood Sweat and Tears went into this thing uh and I'm hoping that this uh is going to reach literally every single Jew uh that's part of am is every single uh Gentile that wants to be part of am anyone that loves the wants the truth this application will reach it and literally reaches hundreds of millions of people and helps them on a daily basis so with that being said one of the questions that people ask me from time to time especially when they you know become more comfortable with me or they just start you know a little you know they have uh you know they have a little nerve they they they don't uh uh they don't uh mind asking questions that are personal and they ask me how do you do all of what you do meaning going from being a person that there was in the investment world that was making millions of dollars that uh you know had uh literally uh career uh that was full of success a clean career I didn't have any major uh issues I didn't steal from anybody uh the uh the couple of lawsuits that you'll see online about me that as you can see they're all fake lawsuits where the people were just simply trying to uh uh steal money from me uh and you could see by the results where you know they sued for a million and a half dollars and they ended up settling for $5,000 obviously if you're willing to settle for less than one% of what you sued the lawsuit is fake and the only reason why you settle is because to actually go to court cost a lot more than that that point being is it was a very very successful career and to go from there to being a rabbi that works I don't know as many hours are there is in a day that I could stay awake and and and and and function that's how much we do it and it's all for there's no salary there's no uh some hidden stash that I have anywhere and in addition to all of that giving all of that money away giving all of the money that people give to help Torah Scholars to open colal to save one K that was a k that was going on for a few decades and during the corona crisis was on the verge of shutting down because you know they weren't able to to fund raise and we merited to save it it's a uh was a huge undertaking uh to to have you know that are Torah Scholars that are to start AED to have all these big events to help hundreds of thousands of people eat to invest you know Fortune into all these different types of Technology uh employees and everything that we do simply based on just faith in Hashem that he's going to help us because everything that we do has always been we do what we need as I learned from my dear Rim we learn what we need we let AEM worry about how to pay for it we don't you know we don't consider oh yeah we maybe we should see save for a rainy day maybe uh you should put some money in an IRA account simple you need something you do it and it works so how do you do all of this stuff I can tell you that uh just like I mentioned in uh you know my early lectures and in the personal story uh I work on and on a daily basis and is no different than your physical muscle if you exercise them they will grow they will grow if you do not exercise them then you will they will not grow and in fact they'll become uh lame and that's in essence the same concept with you have to exercise it now what does it mean to exercise it how do you exercise this how do you exercise this now we have quite a few lectures about we have a whole series about it but I want wanted to delve into something new something new that we haven't discussed in the past new sources new information that is not only going to help you in regards to building youra where you could feel 100% comfortable to make the leap of faith into team AEM into supporting into supporting into your life in general what whatever it is that you need to do whether it's to get married or it's to buy a house or it is whatever it is that you need to do in your business to to to truly have a that hasem is going to be with you but in addition to that to also remove the curses in all of itay starts off with our weekly Paras as it always does everything starts with the weekly parha which par whatever we week you're in the answers to your questions for that week are inside that par now in this week's par most notably uh we we've emphasized and everyone has emphasized the curses that are in the par the warnings that are in the Paras it's the scariest Torah segment in the entire Torah where you have an entire section where gives you warnings not to do certain things because if you do them you'll literally have all of the righteous people that ever live curse you and Hashem curses you and if that's not enough then he goes into the details of the horrors that happen to am is whether individually or as a nation if they go against God and the clock runs out and he starts punishing them and you can see that whole section we're in chapter 27 you know book of Deuteronomy chapter 2728 it's horrific horrific curses but before all of that in between the curses in between the warnings we see that there's an opportunity for blessings but the one that caught my attention this week is a blessing that's so beautiful that so delicious that so extraordinary that I could assure you if you had it your life would never be the same not only at that moment where you have the blessing but ifom you ever lost a blessing you'd know it why because says in chapter 27 uh chapter 28 verse number two all of these blessings will come upon you and will overtake you if you hearken to the voice of hasem your God meaning is so wonderful it's so generous it's so extraordinary so beautiful so good that he says I have the key to everything you can possibly imagine if you follow my Torah not only will you not have to worry about the curses not only will you have to worry you will not have to worry about the punishments in this world and the next and and the the the the different diseases that it mentions and different diseases that it says that are not even mentioned that would come on it things that don't have a cure you will not have to worry about this why because if you hearken to the voice of hem your God the blessings that a is offering you is that they're going to be in such abundance they will overcome you they will what it means overcome you you'll have so much that you'll say to die die meaning that AEM too much too much too many houses too many uh too much money too many kids too many thank you hem it's I I don't have enough time you're be like rarar who had literally ships cities factories so much so that literally it was a world of its own he would make people like Bill Gates and Elon Musk poor in comparison to what he had as much as they have today that billions and hundreds of billions and so on he literally had cities cities and what did he do all day learn toah why we just need to work the abundance that certain people throughout our history of gunten was extraordinary and a who says that is available to you my dear son that is available to you my dear daughter it's available to you now of course it all begins with following the Torah if a person is an atheist don't ask ask hasm to give you blessings you don't believe in him like this imbecile Israeli atheist that uh makes all types of videos making fun of the Torah he says look here's my proof that God doesn't exist look I'll ask you know I'll say if God exists he'll give me a million dollars tomorrow like this is not only stupid and mockery but it just it shows how low their level of intellect is if you don't believe in him why would he give you and if he is God that's the King of Kings why are you making him into a servant that he has to give you something so when a person understands that aadh is telling him I have an offer for you you can have such abundance of blessings if you follow my tah that literally they can get to a point where you say hem too much too many blessings did you ever have that feeling I know know that many most most people did not most people did not why they don't even know what that they don't that sounds like heaven but this is available so the first thing that a person needs to do is follow the Torah why because when you go against the Torah especially with major sins such as wasting seed immorality idolatry desecration of Shabbat intentionally heresy then in essence a person is bringing upon themselves curses they're bringing upon themselves curses and even the what looks like blessings such as money and materialism and so on that they're getting actually is a form of a curse the the the stuff that they have is given to them as a punishment it destroys them so first thing first a person needs to know that they have to do everything they can to eliminate their name from being on the list of people that deserve curses by following the Tora now of course I have all types of students from all over the world some are from a a uh uh a b a bre I also have Safari Jews asazi Jews I even have secular Jews as students in fact there's so many of them all over the world I don't even know most of them if they don't contact me just today just today I had to do something for business and uh I sent the company a message and and the owner of the company sends me a message back says is this really Rabbi your own ruven or is this no no this is me your own oh I watch all of your sh I like everything I'm a big fan next to you know I'm on the phone with him we're on you know supposed to be on the phone for business but we end up having a wonderful conversation and this extraordinary Nish is listening to my sh enjoying them learning from them and I never even knew he existed I never even knew he existed so when a person learns tah and follows what it says automatically they're going to remove themselves from the list of curses but still at the same token despite all of these wonderful people that are from all types of customs and Judaism and so on everyone sins and especially if you're in a process of Chua for issues of immorality or if you stole money in the past and you're trying to give it back all types of things that happened in the past somebody had desecrated Shabbat for 30 years and now they're starting to keep Shabbat and they're having a hard time or whatever it is that people do so what ends up happening is on your way to success there are bumps on the road there are failures and this is certainly going to make a person feel like listen I'm doing my best but I'm not a sadik I'm not perfect uh you know I failed I failed here I failed here and sometimes the person will listen to the it's going to tell listen you're Wicked because even though you did good for six months you failed and uh you know you're a loser and that's not true failure is part of the process of success the most successful people in every aspect of life are the ones that failed but never gave up failure is a choice failure is a choice why failure actually means that you failed and you decide to stay that way it's like you fell and you decide you didn't want to get up now no normal person would do that same concept when it comes to serving hasem learning T doing for you to get to grow you have to fail in the process but you also have to get up so this is is these blessings that we're talking about that are so abundant they're not for perfect people in fact you're going to hear a today that's a of all from the from that will show you that not only are these blessings not for the perfect people but in fact some people that do think that they're perfect are in a much worse situation than what they are imagining where somebody that's actually failing in the process of success is actually considered better than them so first we started with the par now we're going to go to our dear David our King David Mia hasem who says in the Book of Psalms chapter 103 verse1 17 but the kindness of of hasem is forever and ever upon those who fear Him and his righteousness is upon children's children to those who keep his Covenant and to those who remember his commands to fulfill them again emphasizes what the Torah has already told us endless amount of times is kind his kindness is endless not only on you but on your children and your children's children all of that is available if you fear AEM if you keep his Covenant if you fulfill what he says if you exert all of your effort to fulfill what he says the blessings are endless now did he say that you have to be perfect no he did not but he did say you have to keep meaning you do your best and if you fail you try again you do Chua you say I'm sorry hasem I'll do better and you fail again you say I'm sorry hem I'll do better and you truly try don't lie to yourself but to AEM and say I'm going to fail and I'm going to try going try and make a joke out of it because the in says a person that says listen I'll sin but then I'll do chv I'll sin like intentionally I'll sin and I'll do it because I know I can do cha anyway don't do that why because the punishment for that ism is not going to allow you to do cha he's going to give you all types of obstacles you can't overcome so if a person is serious about doing chuva expect to fail but also do not give up for even a moment try again try again try again now further more in the name of ab R Raba says in all your ways know him meaning in order for you to serve a to fulfill the Covenant to fear Him recognize the Creator in everything don't be like those people that always try to put a human element a rational element into everything like for example what's happening now as everyone knows the Cyber attack into theah that killed and injured many of these terrorists in a fantastic extraordinary way as the Torah itself says in three different places where aosh will send this Hornet to kill the enemy what is this hornet in so many words aosh says I don't need special weapons I don't need the atomic bombs I don't need even a war if I want to protect my kids that could just simply send the the the uh uh the uh the bullet myself you don't even have to pull a trigger and when a person looks at what happened how in literally in a matter of moments only terrorists were hurt only terrorists were killed only they were the ones that owned these beepers this wasn't like some type of missile attack that there's going to be some collateral damage no only terrorists only enemies were hurt killed Meed scared and so on it was an extraordinary thing the world has never seen anything like it now someone that has spiritual eyes that fulfills what the gar says in all of your ways know him is saying this is the hand of God clearly it's clear as day this is the hand of God this is not something that a uh is anything else other than this is AEM but someone that does not recognize AEM really will say yeah yeah of course everything is AEM but what you have to understand is that the the Israeli Defense Force and the mad they had these really uh genius programmers who programmed the beepers alongside the bomb team that put these precise amount of chemicals inside every beeper because they knew that if they put a certain amount of voltage into it in the magnetic energy and they'll try no no no what about hem yeah yeah yeah everything is about AEM everything is AEM but let me explain to you the the the chemicals they had this thing no no no but what about Hashem yeah everything is AEM but and they'll do that meaning they'll tell you AEM but in reality they'll always subject to credit to humans and the reality is the ran writes in par anyone that thinks that everything is not a miracle has no share in the Torah of of of M everything is a miracle everything is AEM there is no you there is no IDF there is no your effort you're a good salesman you're a good uh mathematician you're a good there is no you it's all AEM he just allowed you to press the button or to make the call to make it look realistic and not a pure open Miracle but in reality it's all a miracle but when a person says yeah it's AEM but I'm the one that bought the building at a good price and I negotiated and I convinced and this type of ideology is poisonous why it may not make the person violate Shabbat it may not make the person go pray to some Idol but it will kill that person's his faith and confidence in hasem why because his faith and confidence is in people is in skill set is in Talent is in timing is in mazal is in all types of outside factors as if hem is overseeing it and allowed it to work but really it was my effort the more confidence you have in your own abilities in in your own talents the less room you're making for AEM and I could assure you that is the poison of all poisons when it comes to having blessings in your life the in page 24a says that is received MIT with the degradation of the generations King David saw let's teach and and focus on 11 fundamental teachings that will stem into the 613 mitv from those 11 from that Foundation they'll get to then the prophets came and lowered it even further narrowed it even further where from six you can get to all 613 then the prophet mikah three you can get all 63 Isaiah two Amos one and then came and says it's all one ideological belief that will get you to everything what sadik a righteous person will live through hisa what does he mean through his amuna some people think that oh if he Hasa then it's okay that he could desecrate Shabbat no he'll get punished for desecrating Shabbat oh if he believes that uh you know that God is real then uh that's then everything's going to be good no that's not enough meaning that first and foremost a person has to do everything possible to go and follow what toah says but it's not enough to just read the tah learn the tah know the tah or even follow the tah but you have to live the Torah you have to live the Torah meaning that this is reality what it says in the tah both the written and the oral tah that is reality and the more faith a person has in our tah in our creation and the more he puts into that the more he's really going to live meaning that he'll have a life worth living now Shimon gab one of the sikim from the previous generation said to have learned the section of from the famous book from a th Years Ago by he learned it over 300 times now how did this learning the sh 300 time actually turn into life when he came to natana the city of natana where I was born he came as completely broke no money whatsoever but had unprecedented levels and as a result of his he built the biggest yes the biggest buildings that help is to this day his students that followed his footsteps Moshe Ben Moshe he uh also did the same thing build the biggest the biggest buildings and his student student did the same exact thing till this day why you don't have any money how you building buildings I have confidence that Hashem will help me but what do this confidence come from the Mara says that if you haven't seen your friend for over a year and then you run into him or he comes to visit you you visit him whatever it is after you haven't seen each other for a year the is that you have to make a blessing of hasem Makes Miracles why has Makes Miracles because certainly if a year has passed then Rashana the Judgment Day and Yip has passed and the fact that he and you are still alive after Judgment Day for sure is a miracle you survive Judgment Day it's a miracle now where does this stem from the he has one of the most fundamental responses in our history and he writes he writes in the 500 and 61 81 81 T and he says first first person needs to for Russ has to think about the sins he's made to do chva prepare for the holiday take a shower get a haircut but the mid says that look at this great nation why is a great nation says RAB and Rua look how this nation is where its nature is like its creator it's uh it's not a it's a Heavenly nature that they have it's not like the rest of people cuz the rest of people in the world their ways are ways of the world where if they have a judgment that's coming up they have a court case where their life is on the line they're you know downcast they wear black clothes they have a black mood they you know they're they uh they don't shave anymore they don't cut their nails they uh go to their judgment where their life is on a line as if they are uh you know mourning is not like that on the Judgment Day on they wear white and they cover themselves with white and they shave their uh you know trimmed their beards and they cut their nails and they want and they drink and they eat feasting and they're happy because they know that will make a miracle for them and therefore they act in this way meaning they are already drinking and eating a celebratory meal and wearing their best clothes as if they are celebrating the wedding as if it's the greatest day in the world why they're celebrating the miracle that they're relying on on this Judgment Day and in fact this is the says we do this where we wear clean clothes and and the uh cut you know uh get haircuts and and the rest of what the tool says to show that we have confidence in his and his kindness that he will take us and and judge us favorably meaning is goes to expecting a miracle expecting a miracle meaning that having is not something foreign but rather something that is part of our tradition our laws our nation but yet some people have the mistaken notion that they have to exert themselves more than they should and they'll work overtime and they'll get multiple jobs and they'll do all types of things that show that they have more confidence in their own ability than they do in Hashem as if Hashem is not going to help them the sadik rabish Shimon gab say same one that learned sh said I don't understand people you know Jewish people that do not have P I don't understand either they don't believe that their father is going to help them or or there's something missing in that it just doesn't make any sense it doesn't make any sense there's a disconnect between their relationship between them and Hashem people that are constantly worried about money people that are constantly worried that they're not going to have there's a disconnect sometimes people don't realize that that disconnect is ruining their lifei Shalom was a extraordinary do one day he's walking in the market and uh somebody was selling lottery tickets you know in those days it wasn't digitized like today you know everything was there was a limited amount of tickets and so on someone was selling tickets and there were the the grand prize was going to be announced that night and as Soni passes by him he says d one left one ticket left the grand prizes today and he comes up to one ticket left so says okay how much is it he says to him five L okay take here and he gives him the ticket and as he's walking he starts to think what did I just do that five l i could buy a couple of pieces of bread that I could then eat the it will give me energy to learn Tora instead what did I do I just bought a piece of paper what do I need this for and he went back to the guy he said listen can can I can I get a refund can I give it back to you and the guy said yeah sure it's only one ticket left give it back give you five L back and easily you know there's no problem that had extraordinary memory he remembered what the numbers were so later that night when they announced the winner he knew that was the number that he had in his hand and decades later when he's telling this story to his students that he had the grand prize in his hand he asked them how much time do you think I spent being upset about it so one of the students said I don't know 10 minutes five minutes a day he says to them not even a second but Rabbi how you're a human being you had the grand prize had the grand prize in your hand he says if it was mine then I would have it the fact that it's I didn't get it that means that it wasn't mine same thing like that story that I told you years ago about the kid that was hosted by a family to eat each day because there was such poverty over there and every family had to host one of the from the and one day the kid shows up to the house and the lady of the house says to him I'm sorry but today uh the uh the cheese uh was eaten by the cat your cheese is uh was eaten by the cat so I only have some uh bread for you and Juice because the cat ate your cheese and the kiss says no the cat didn't eat my uh cheese ma'am say no no no no I saw the cat you know he jumped you know he's a cat after all he jumped on the table and he stole your cheese and the boy responds to her no ma'am the cat did not steal my cheese so the woman is starting to think wait a minute are you what is he saying what do you mean the cat didn't steal his cheese is he saying that I stole his cheese and maybe I should give him the cheese that I'm supposed to eat and she say them what what do you what you think I stole it and she say no ma'am no I didn't say that I'm saying that the cheese that the cat ate was not my cheese system so whose cheese was it it was the cat's cheese the cat ate his own cheese huh if if the cheese was mine that means it was decreed by a and no one can take it from me the fact that the cat ate the cheese means that it was his cheese and I did not get cheese today from Hashem and that's exactly what the says no one can help you and no one can hurt you if it's not the will of hasem no one could ever take something from you that's yours if you lost something that's because it's not yours the understanding of that is very deep but the reality of it creates an extraordinary Clarity in life we said that to have blessings we first have to start by following the mitv but at the same token we know that we're not perfect we're not perfect so can we still get these blessings listen to this listen to the words of theim and what they have to say we first start with the words ofin spoke so highly of his rebi of Thea he told stories of his The Genius of of the G Vila that are so unbelievable that at the end of his days the G vilner was sick and the family wanted to bring him a doctor and the GOI villain says I don't need a doctor say but please just do it for the family so they brought the doctor and when the doctor came in the G VNA raised his body from laying down to sitting up and the doctor comes in he says to the G VNA how are you feeling I want wanted to check you the go and says to him how many how many parts of my body had to move in order for me to go from being laying down to sitting up and of course the doctor has clueless and had no knowledge of this but the G Villa knew exactly the number meaning that his genius was not just in what people think like Torah knowledge that they think is just old but rather scientific in every aspect of knowledge he's called the G for a reason and this G this G has a SE called EV in this EV in the third chapter second section he writes this you just heard an atomic bomb but you don't realize it yet the G VNA says something that is so profound that if you just simply understand and believe this and apply this to your life your bet skyrockets because it'll tell you where you stand he says someone that has inm confidence in hem that Hashem is in control of everything it's not me it's not my talent it's not my product it's not my technology it's all AEM and I have confidence in Hashem that whatever he gives me is the best thing in the world not that he's only going to give me good based on what I think is good but rather everything that he gives me is good is the best and he's always going to give me the best and that will ow a person to make decisions that are beyond what socalled normal people do because they're no longer relying on their own skill on their own ability on their own finances they're doing the will of hem and thereby they're also relying on hem and the g says someone that has even if they make sins and not just small sins like they forgot to make a blessings they make some big sins meaning they're failing on the way to success but they still have who he this guy that makes big sins but has he is better than some someone that does not have even if that someone learns Torah and does good nice kind things why because the guy that's learning and does kind things but doesn't really have he always tries to add the human element to everything give the credit to the president give the credit to the uh to the you know the Prime Minister give the credit to the technology give the credit to the timing give the credit to all types of factors meaning he doesn't have full confidence in hasem so even if he learns tah and he does good things this lack of confidence in hasem is going to bring him to have jealousy and hatred of other people why because if he doesn't have then really he thinks that it's all within his power so when he sees that someone else has more than him he'll be jealous that that someone has more power than him or more mazal than him or better timing than him he'll hate that person that has better kids than him and better a nice car than him he'll be jealous he'll be hateful even if he's learning thei even if he's learning to why because you doesn't have confidence that everything is from Hashem he has confidence that everything is from Hashem but we have to do this and we have to do that and you have to have good timing and you have to have uh good luck and you have to have this and you have to have all of these other factors and therefore the ga says that the person that's making s but yet has he's better than that guy even if the other guy learns more tah than him because the other guy while he's learning tah while he's doing nice things at the same token inside himself he has hatred of people he's jealous of people and all the Torah that he learns and the kind things that he learns is not because he believes in hem because we already said he doesn't believe in hm he just you know he believes that you know there's like this guy in the world or something he's that that oversees but doesn't care so why you [Applause] learning really he's only learning T to create a name for himself to show people that he has knowledge they don't to show people he knows more than them to create himself an image to create himself a stage meaning his religiosity his Torah so-called scholarship is not really because he has such you know connection with hasem rather he has a connection to himself and this is built upon the teachings that preceded the GOA that originally came obviously from our holy tah and traveled generation after generation into the of that had a V and r v writes in his se he lived a few hundred years couple hundred years before the G and he writes an introduction to his which is like the the uh the the gar of the of of the uh of the cabala the gar of the of the Z he writes this there are those that exert a lot of effort in their religiosity but really they've turned the Torah into an Axe and acts as if it's work they're using the Torah as that's that's their vocation not for the sake of learning to to get closer to Hashem to publicize hashem's name to to glorify hashem's name to help his children but rather they use it only for for the sake of money some people are plumbers some people are you know work with wood some people build houses some people are Bankers these people they use book books of Torah in order to make their money there are there their business is the Torah and these he's talking about's not not just a few these can be heads of yes heads of the B heads of communities and their goal is to have their names known all over the place but yet their actions are like the actions of the generation of the Tower of Babel that build themselves a tower to have its head in the sky in order to build themselves a name and in says on this P these types of people that use the Torah just for the sake of making money just for the sake of publicizing their own name they want to build the Yesa not because they care about learning more doing CH no they're building it Isa so they could show people look there's a building I built it look my name's on there I'm the founder I'm the president I'm the CEO they have people that come to their congregation each week for 10 15 20 20 years yet still driving on Shabbat and they never say anything to them why because they don't want to disturb the business they know that if they tell the guy you're not allowed to drive on Shabbat perhaps he won't come back and if he won't come back he won't continue donating a few hundred, a year so it's better off to just say nothing let him keep donating and you know we'll continue building more Torah but says these people are not building the Torah what are they building they're building their own names because who are they they are the they are the so now we see even more of what the ga was employing here that someone that has even if he has sins he's still better than one that does not have even if the other one is learning T because the one that has confidence in hem certainly believes in hem certainly wants to glorify hashem's name certainly knows that they want to become better and they know that everything is in the hands of Hashem and everything that Hashem gives is certainly for your best interest whereas the one that is using the tah to build their own name it's as a result of them not really having any confidence in hasem they have confidence in themselves and they become the enemy of the are a segment of Amal which are the enemies of the meaning that when a person has not only are they recognizing that the curses that seem like curses the troubles they have are for their benefit they're not really curses furthermore they feel confident that everything with no limitation they could simply ask Hashem because everything is from him and in fact they're not going to give up on their getting better and serving hasem even better and doing even more even if they failed along the way because they know that again Hashem will bless them even while they're failing as long as they have confidence that everything is from him as long as they're trying to do better and they know that everything is from him and in fact the more they exercise that amuna muscle that muscle the more they'll be able to achieve greater things where initially they may think listen I can't learn more than 15 minutes a day but you know what I'll try and they'll try and Hashem will give them the strength and they'll be able to learn even more and the next day they learn to half hour and the next day they learned one hour and before they know it they find themselves reading a book for a little while too initially they say listen maybe I could just read simple books I can't go into the gar and before they know it they say you know what the rabbi said I need to try I need to do item will help me and Hashem does help them and they start learning in fact says a thousand years ago in the fifth chapter the fifth sh about serving a with all of your heart if you want to develop a greater love forem always say with aem's help with the will of hem about everything I'm going to work beem I'm going to see you later I'm G to pay whatever you're doing always say always say why because you're literally connecting hem to every statement to every statement don't say listen I'll try you know no I'll try I'll try my best I'll do my best constantly have AEM in your mind constantly have Hashem in your mind don't be shy to express your love and connection to Hashem why this constant mentioning is going to help you feel it more so even if you fail along the way to success the G says you are beloved by hem and you could even get to a point where it's not just the spiritual things that you have confidence inm but also the material things where you know that supporting tah is not just with learning but also helping other people learning like we talked about yesterday in fact no one can learn enough to fill what they're required so therefore everyone including the Torah Learners have to support more Torah in the world have to support kiru have to support other Torah Scholars as much as they can and and when a person has the desire to have a deeper connection with hm and to have more that means they're going to keep pushing not just their spiritual muscles but their material muscles going say you know what I know that I could afford to give 500 but I'm still going to give a thousand why because this is a good cause this will create more of God's glory in the world this will create Jews that are more religious that are more connected to Hashem this money is going to be used to glorify hm's name so I'm going to give more that what makes sense to me because I have confidence that theem will help me because what I'm doing is to glorify his name and therefore a person pushes themselves pushes the envelope and for that says someone that has confidence in hem only kindness will surround him while somebody else that may be more knowledable about different sections of the tah than you religious for a longer amount of time than you but yet does not have real confidence in hasem that person is nowhere near where you are or where you can be because when you have confidence in hasem that means that you have connection to hem and how do you keep that connection getting stronger and stronger because every muscle needs to constantly work out or else it becomes dull you keep pushing the envelope whatever you did last year do a little more this year last year you contributed a th000 push yourself do more this year do, 1500 this year do 2,000 this year do 5,000 this year do more and Hashem will help you Hashem will help you the more you believe in Hashem the more hasem is going to help you this has been the secret key that I learned from my dear raim for more than a decade this has been the secret ingredient behind not only what our organization does but also why the organization is named because from the beginning and even from when I was a young kid we always knew that everything is with the help of hasem it's just that after we learned more and more Tor we realized that as much as we thought it's with the help of Hashem it was much more than that really everything is from Hashem and the more we show that we know that everything is from Hashem the more it gives us the confidence to take bigger leaps to help more to do more to do things that are completely unprecedented give hundreds of thousands of books for free people make a living out of selling books they hope that they could sell a few thousand books when they sell you know when they write a book they hope that a few thousand people will buy the book fight tell you okay so what did you do you published a book you you you wrote a book you worked on it for a long time what' you sell you sold a thousand books sold 2,000 books you sold 5,000 books 10,000 books you sold great so you made I don't know let's say you made a couple hundred, if that much well what if I told you that if you are part of a part of of of we publish a book the minimum we print starts at 10,000 copies 25,000 50,000 copies why because we want to give it to people it's like yeah but who's buying it no one's buying it it's all for free wait but but how do you pay for it oh hasm pays for it but how do you know when you place the order with the printer company and with the graphics guy and with the editor guy and everybody else when you do all of this how do you know you're going to have money to pay for all of it I don't know anything I know that it needs to be done there's a book that at least 25,000 people should read so that's what we do and through that year after a year another five another eight another 10 books are published we've published dozens of books we've given out hundreds of thousands of copies for free millions millions of CDs and USBS invested a fortune into technology over the years over the you know why because this is what's needed sometimes what's needed is a few ,000 to help somebody get married to help somebody pay an electric bill to help somebody pay a medical bill to to to help somebody get some food sometimes uh you need a whole lot more to help a much much larger group sometimes you need this sometimes you need that whatever hasem is sending to our door after we verify that this is what it is it's it's the right thing that's not a scam of some kind then certainly we do whatever we can to show that we have confidence in hasem without really considering who what when how and while people are baffled like listen if you instead of all these campaigns of helping these poor people you just would have saved the money you could have already bought the building and the aiva that you wanted to start you're wrong why are you wrong hasem did not short Change Us in any way we have a couple of K we have a bed we have an organization we have a lot of wonderful things but we don't have the building in America to have our Yeshiva yet and do you know why because Hashem decided it's not time yet Hashem decided it's not time yet Perhaps through our efforts and our and our hasm now this year will be judged that we will have it and I can assure you that any one of you that decides that you're going to exert yourself to the absolute maximum to show your confidence in hasem to help the organization contribute to the campaign that we have right now for the high holidays contribute your your make your primary investment in the world of Torah with us I could assure you that you will be part of the greatest thing that's happened to the Jewish World in a very very long time especially that right now we're at the time of mashia it's been amazing to do everything we've done and just imagine the people that invested into US 10 years ago they invested into us before we were even a penny stock imagine the people that invested into the first SE that we were giving out for free imagine the people that invested into us for the first few employees just to handle the YouTube channel imagine those people that invested into the first food campaign and continued and continued the amount of blessings that they got in this world is extraordinary but I can assure you if you can multiply by a million it's not even equal to half of it in shamim it's especially those that continued and those that continued you heard many of their voices you saw their videos and you'll see more of them not a single one of them could ever say that they lost out as a result of investing into the organization because it helped us do hashem's will and also helped them have more and see more miracles and blessings as a result so remember it doesn't really matter where you were and how many sins you made in the past what matters is where you are and where you want to go if you are at a place where you are doing everything you can to follow the Torah to follow the Covenant to follow the mitv and you don't give up each time you fail each time you make a mistake you keep trying to get better and you develop that and you exercise it on a regular basis keep pushing yourself to Greater limits there's no doubt in my mind and it's a guarantee from the Torah the name of the sages whether it's the or or even the Tora itself in this week's himself is signing off on it telling you if you do all that I'll give you so many blessings you'll say it's too much you'll say is too much and there's some of you that I know that will take this to heart and use it I'm only hoping that more of you do it because is needs it the world needs it and you need it we all need it we all need to exercise our muscles and this is a great way to do it so with that being said hope everyone got some out of it now I'm going to take some questions from you will give us the answers is the free cup yes so the uh the free cup offer is still available anyone that subscribes to the YouTube channel as a paid subscriber and sends us a receipt uh to uh the email events at BH torah.org uh we will send them a uh cup to their house wherever they are in the world uh all paid for uh as a free offer so you just have to become a free paid a paid subscriber on YouTube and it's a uh tumbler so it keeps the tea hot and for a few hours coffee whatever it is you like to drink thanks for the question good way to plug it um uh let's see isn't it not allowed to from AI uh the AI is not ping the AI is providing you uh that already exists to it requires a that uh not only is uh familiar with the situation and familiar with all of the different uh sources uh but also there's a human element to that a computer could never replace but the AI is not ping any Al the AI is providing you already existing Al so for example if you ask it what is the blessing on uh on on a uh let's say I don't know on you know drinking a cup of Coca-Cola they'll tell you so that's not that's not making a ruling that's telling you an existing ruling that's out there okay for just a bunch of missionaries and people arguing with them I don't uh Rabbi can you talk about Torah codes uh sure I mean I have a film I have a film called Torah science and um ancient wisdom and in the uh in that film part of the film it talks about Torah codes uh so I would highly recommend people go uh go there uh but briefly Torah codes is a uh you know hidden secrets that could be found within the Torah by uh utilizing a in today's world they use computers for this in the previous generations uh the gar says there used to be certain sages that were the counters of letters so this obviously is referring to uh you know things like Torah codes and other other different wisdoms that you can find in the torat through uh uh through mathematics uh but um as far as uh Torah codes it's simply they find they look for specific words and they look for uh you know a place in the Torah where there is those uh that word is spelled by finding the proper letters with equal uh um skips between the uh the letters so for example if I'm looking for in in English for example if I'm looking for the word uh I don't know let's just say for the word for the name Trump okay so what I would have to to find the word Trump in the Torah literally no one's named Trump okay so you're not going to find that but what do they do is that they're looking for the word Trump if there's a place in the tah where there is a equal amount of uh letters separating each letter from each other and the smaller the separation the better so if let's say for example there's a uh you know there's over 300,000 uh 30 4,805 letters in the uh tah in the five books of Moses tor codes are only used in the five books of Moses it's not used in the other 19 books of the tanak it's only in the five books of Moses that's what Torah codes are are used for so anyone that tells you I found a Torah code in uh in Psalms or in uh Chronicles or anywhere else they are clearly unaware the Torah codes do not apply there Torah codes are only from the five books of Moses and if let's say for example they found the T and then let's say there is 10 letters and then there there's the r and then 10 more letters then there's the U and 10 more letters then there's the m and then 10 more letters then there's a p okay so that is you found the letter Trump great now that's not enough to mean anything now you also want to see if there's any other words that are relevant to this character that uh that you're looking at so for example you want to look for assassination now you may find the word assassination in other places in the Torah but also in the same let's say par paragraph As you s as you saw the word Trump and then you're going to say okay I want to find the uh uh the word the name of let's say the Assassin so whatever the Assassin's name the first one or the second one let's just say you're going to find that one also on the same page so here already you're going to see that this is not a coincidence that even though you could say you could argue yeah I found you know the word Trump in page one I found the the word assassin in page 580 and I I found the word uh of the Assassin in page 1500 that's not as obviously that's not as valuable but if you found all three of those words in the same page and in the same paragraph that obviously shows that this is a uh their by Design even more so if you see that the actual context of the paragraph that you're uh that these words are found in has to do with something that's relevant to the to to to to the the matters at hand then you see that this is obviously uh you know the divine intervention where this was already there uh and uh we just didn't know it now the only thing is with Torah codes is that uh when it comes to let's say for example uh uh using Torah codes you're only using Torah codes to discuss things that happened already to use it to discuss things that uh may happen in the future is a waste of effort for two reasons number one and most critical is you don't know what to look for because what's you know when someone is looking for something they're looking for something they're already familiar with they're familiar with let's say the countries that are looking to go to war with each other or they're familiar with certain sicknesses or they're familiar with certain things that may happen based on you know their current knowledge but the future is not necessarily based on the past you know like they say in the investment World Past performance is not an indication of future results same concept so when you're trying to predict the future with information that is present in the past it's virtually useless because the future very likely will have things that did not exist in the past so therefore you don't know to look for it so that's why using these types of things uh to predict the future is is is not useful second thing is when you have different people that play with the Torah codes uh and try to predict different things oh you know for example they people love to do this with politics Trump will win the elections and uh look the word mashiach is in the same paragraph and look the uh uh whatever they'll find all types of things and they show this to the public this is not only foolish but this is Mis bleeding and it caus more harm than good why because every time they've done that uh you know especially in the last several years with you know with technology and and media and and how you know everybody's a cameraman everybody's a has a stage today uh and they you know they go on their computer they find all types of words that are only exist in the current time and have nothing to do necessarily with the future and then they show people oh yeah look this person well this is connected to uh this thing it's connected to mhia it's always connected to mhia somehow and they'll tell people and so now people that believe this stuff will say oh look mashia is coming in three months mashia is coming in six months mashia is coming you know after this election or after this and then it doesn't happen that makes the Torah look bad it makes the Torah look like it was mistaken but the Torah wasn't mistaken the person that was presenting the Torah that way was mistaken the Torah is perfect but the guy found specific things that exist and used it for his own agenda little does he know that there were many other things that are on that same page that he wasn't even looking for because he doesn't know they exist yet so using Torah codes for the sake of predicting the future is a Fool's errand and at worst it's for scammers it's people that simply want to scam people so don't use the Torah codes for the sake of the future if you want to use Torah codes for the sake of finding you know some more uh uh uh Divine uh uh uh uh you know secrets that are within the Torah to to help you with let's say some other information that you have you know there's no problem with it but remember whether it's gatria or it's uh the Torah codes uh these are all the says these are all considered what's they're like seasonings they're not considered wisdom itself they're not considered intellect itself it's considered seasonings wisdom is learning to itself learning learning learning learning the that's where your wisdom is going to come Torah codes is not going to add even 1% to your wisdom it's seasoning on wisdom meaning if you have wisdom already and you know how to utilize it the Torah codes of Gat can add more to it more seasoning to it can sharpen certain things but if you don't have any wisdom Tor codes is not going to help you in any way shape or form if anything it'll uh it'll distort the Torah so uh for anyone that's uh constantly watching the things about Torah codes and all these different uh people that are predicting uh different things about Torah codes if you don't take if you don't want believe what I'm saying right now what I simply recommend for you is look at those same people that are publicizing Torah right now and making all types of ridiculous predictions look at what they said last year look at what they said five years ago and you'll see how they were always wrong their predictions didn't come true oh no but look over here it was right okay so one time out of 50 he was right you know it's a uh anybody could uh be right one times out of 50 it's a uh 2% chance it's not exactly a good statistic now if you show me oh he's this guy's right you know UH 60 70 80% of the time okay fine okay so you could say something but they're not they're not even close to that they just say some random things that are simply part of their current knowledge bank and the future usually will have things that are not in your current knowledge Bank hence the reason why uh it's a uh the future is unknown that's what they say future is unknown yeah they make thousands of predictions and delete the ones that didn't happen exactly that's that's that's conmen that's you know that's conmen that's a uh that's a uh you know it's a waste of time it's a waste of effort and uh it takes advantage of people that are naive you want wisdom from a Tora learn the Torah itself don't learn the seasonings this is like uh somebody going to a restaurant that has all types of uh meat from different parts of the world they have smoked meat they have this meat they have different they have I don't know they have all types of beautiful delicious meat and each one has its price each one has its weight each one has its things and the guy says okay sir uh what would you and your uh wife like to eat oh no we're okay all right so he come back you know he thinks maybe okay maybe they just want to talk a little bit figure out what they want to eat comes back half an hour later okay sir have you uh decided what you want to eat no we're okay we're okay oh wow I guess maybe he's not that hungry so comes back serves other customers comes back an hour later okay sir what would you like to eat no actually we're we're fine with what we had well sir we need the seat then no no we're customers how are you customers all you've been doing is drinking the free water and uh doing nothing no that's not true I've been eating what did you eat well you had some pepper and you had some salt so I eat some of that so now I'm okay wait you ate the seasonings are you and that's your food that's people that spend their time and effort with gatria and with Torah codes as their main Devotion to the Torah it's not Devotion to the tah it's simply a distortion of the tah the tah itself is learning what the tah says applying it to your life learning the laws learning the M learning the different complications the suot learning about the sages that's what the toah is predictions the Torah itself specifically says the hidden is for hem the hidden is for hem it's not for us to figure out what the hidden is Hashem did not make a 600 14th Mitzvah figure out what the future is going to be there is no Mitzvah like that there's no obligation or even a recommendation in the T to try to figure out the future T already told us what we need to do and also how to evaluate the current situations and what it could bring we do good it'll bring good we do bad against the Tora it'll bring bad that's not because we're predicting the future that's just because the Torah said this is the rules so when a person understands that the wisdom of the T is the Torah itself and not the seasonings that person is going to start learning the Torah and stop wasting their time watching videos and reading all types of Torah code books but when a person insists on spending hours of their life watching videos about Torah codes then you you could just simply give them the uh the example that they are like a person that went to the best restaurant in the world and only ate the different seasonings and did not order any actual food by everyone's definition that person is a okay is it heresy if I believe that the Z wasn't written mostly by and I believe that it holds the same status as a mid said that the Z kados is a holy book you have to follow it as far as believe that it's true true that it's a uh it's certainly a uh holy book as far as Al we don't p in from the Z we certainly learn from it there are certain stringencies or that uh we we apply and some people don't apply uh but to think of it uh as a uh anything less than what it is uh is certainly a form of heresy yes because it's not the Z that a person is having an issue with but rather the uh the the opinion of and what ends up happening is that the people that uh decide that they have a different opinion about the Z uh in all cases never actually read the entire Z in all cases without exception they may have read certain segments from it they may have read read even uh entire chapters or even even a few books of it but they never completed it from cover to cover they never understood what they were actually even reading and worse of it all their decision was not of not believing that the Z is holy or was by shim or uh where do they get this information from they got it from all types of Heretics that think that they know better than whether it's the s or it's aash or and other Andi that learned more Tor in a single day than they did in their entire life so it's arrogant and foolish to have a different opinion from people that were much greater than you much smarter than you much more knowledgeable than you uh you know to to have a different opinion than them it's just a stupid thing it's like going into a uh a uh um you know famous uh Clinic that is known as a worldwide renowned this Clinic has the best surgeons let's say for spinal surgery and you go in there and you start contradicting and uh everything that the different experts are saying and somebody says to you well you disagree with everyone but where is your expertise from well you know you know I'm not a doctor okay so did you at least learn medicine well you know not not in University not in med school well where did you what gives you the the the belief that you're right and all of these experts with years of experience Decades of experience a wrong well you know I did read a uh you know a uh spinal surgery for dummy's book and I also watched a couple of YouTube videos so I think that I uh I'm I'm entitled to my opinion now according to all intellectual people that person is a they have a stamp that they're a the same concept with all of those people that think that they can contradict what said because is were not just people that were really smart and popular and and and respected dedicated literally decades upon Decades of their life toiling in the Torah Beyond human comprehension what they were able to do in a single day the these PE you know these people that that contradict him wouldn't do in their entire life wouldn't doing their entire life ask any of these people will you ever able to uh study 16 hours straight without a break without a conversation on the phone without eating without drinking 16 hours straight now come on uh you know a uh a uh only uh some people could do no no my Rabbi does that he just did it the other day it's not uh he may may not be as popular as radya or as raash yet but he did it and he's not contradicting any of but you are with your little YouTube channel and uh and and the the uh three books that you read in your life so a person needs to know where they stand know where they stand we follow just like says that is is compared to a dove where the wings are our sages if we follow our sages am flies flies high if we don't follow the sages the wings of the of the dove are gone what happens to the dove it dies it dies simple so if you want to have a uh valid opinion about any aspect of a Tor you have to find what is the opinion of what are the opinion of the experts the great sages and once you do that you're good I got twice a day it's online but it's better than nothing I'm trying to make more effort to go in person to my community I feel like I'm failing my test and the more I look the more I see so this is something you should take upon yourself now and start going to sh every day okay it's it's a uh a test for you but you could pass it the fact that you recognize that uh you're uh you could pass it uh is good and that you need to pass it is even better just do it now how does one do Chua for using AI chat bots on University assignments I'm not really sure what you would need to do uh chva for if the university uh gave you a task and used a AI chatbot to to fulfill it of course that is not the uh uh the the goal of the university is not for you to uh have a robot do your homework but the Biggest Loser out of that is you because you're the one that's paying for an education tens of thousands of dollars and if you're having a computer do your work you're not getting that education the school is still getting their money so there's nothing you're not stealing anything from them uh even if you got a great grade you're not stealing anything from them uh you're stealing from yourself because you're paying for an education that you're not getting so either start doing your homework or uh drop out of school and get a regular job Rabbi what can we do to spread positivity with all of the fighting hatred in the world it seems like no one wants to be kind anymore if you watch more and more of my shim and and apply those to your life and share them with as many people as possible you'll be spreading positivity in the world how do names have power example the Satan and his wife which we are not allowed to say their names now it's not that the name has power uh but rather when you say somebody's name you call their attention so for example if let's say your name is uh is uh is David and I'm behind you and say hey David now I may have a son that's named David I may have a friend that's named David uh and he's in the same direction of where my voice is going but even though it's going in the same direction and it's referring to somebody else since you're in the vicinity what are you going to do when you hear the word David you're going to turn around yes no no I didn't mean you I was referring to my my friend over there oh okay why because I called your name you have the same name so same concept with the angels uh when you use specific names for them now saying the word Satan is not a problem it's not his name uh there's a name that he has that we do not say uh we use acronyms from it like the we say sat these are different descriptions of him rather than his name his name is something else which by the way there are that say that once mashia comes his name will become actually a holy name his real name will become a holy name that uh uh people will call their kids after him because he's going to turn into a good Angel and so on but it's a different she for a different time uh now it's far as his wife's name uh again we do not say her name because when you say her name you're calling her attention and if you call her attention then you're calling yourself problems why cuz she's the one that's resp responsible uh for the issues of immorality and so when you call her name you're bringing immorality to your life don't be surprised if some uh you know provocative uh person approaches you and all of a sudden they're interested in you or there's a provocative picture all types of immorality or immorality in your dreams wasting seed so when a person says her name they're they're calling her attention in essence inviting her uh to to to obviously oh you called me oh sure I'm looking for more of uh more sins and you know so that's so it's not that they name has power rather that uh just like in this world when you say somebody's name you call their attention and you certainly do not want to call the attention of the malim uh that are on the evil side now what about the malim that are on the good side there are names of malim that are mentioned in the Torah but that are also used used for people like M Gabriel Rafael even though these are names of angels of is angels that has to do to bring a lot of good for for is in the World At Large um these names are also since they're mentioned the Torah these names are also used for people I have a brother named Gabriel I have a nephew named Mikel I have a student that's named Rafael so these are names that are relatively common names for people so there's no problem saying those names because you're not referring to the angel but there are names of angels uh that are not literally quoted in the tah in the same fashion and uh those names uh are uh holy names that a person should not say and the reason why is because if you're saying those names then it definitely is referring to that angel and you're getting that Angel's attention and that angel is a Holy Angel that's going to come to you and if you're not at the level of Holiness to deserve getting that angel to come to you then that angel will have the permission to hurt you shom so that's why it's a it's it's a terrible idea for people to say the names of angels uh you know when when these are names that are not like the ones that I mentioned that is no problem that are you know used for people as well you know there are different K and different uh types of uh uh you know um things that uh mikim write that use these names but they never tell you to read those names out loud or anything like that uh you know you know it's again if you're a pure person you protect your bleed you you you are you know relatively holy person um you can look at those names and things like that there are certain things that person can do with the names but to say them out loud no say them out and in fact even having those names in in a house uh you you should get permission from your Rabbi before you do it because there are certain names that again it can create problems create problems uh not everything holy uh is belongs in every house there are certain things that are holy that uh belong in specific locations and only for specific spefic people and if a person that's Unholy or even if they're good but they're not at the level of Holiness that's required going into that type of Realm can actually create more problems than good uh so so it's not a uh it's not a good idea you know many times people buy all types of things that they're not aware of uh of what they do and uh and and many times they see a lot of problems coming to their life instead of blessings so don't uh don't don't think don't don't you know over uh overstep your boundaries know where you stand uh speak with a that knows you and where you stand when you ask for guidance about everything not just some general person that's willing to uh uh ask your you know answer your questions uh and you'll make uh decisions that are at the very least not going to hurt you what will it happen to a feminist Rebel wife at the end of her life well feminism is against the Torah uh and if she's a feminist then typically she's also against uh much of the Torah if not all of it and people that go against the Torah will get punished severely at the highest level all right thank you for all your hard work and videos I'll continue to be part of your Channel do Jews still believe in mashiach not only do the Jews believe in the mhia but the mhia is one of our 13 principles of faith meaning that we believe that the m M can come at any given day any Jew that does not believe that the mashiah can come at any given day is considered a heretic in fact the belief in mssiah comes from Judaism it's not a Christian invention like your pastors and Priests have told you uh the belief in mashia is in the Torah it's in from Judaism and anything that the uh uh Christians have told you is simply a about originating from Christianity is simply a lie uh it's a uh it's a lie to it's one of the ways that they try to uh sell you their back of potatoes and while telling you it's a bag of gold but it's a complete lie I Rabbi I learned that the chief Rabbi of England Israel Brody was a Freemason and he established the rabinal Council of Europe how is a chief Rabbi also a Freemason at the same time uh you'll have to ask him uh I don't know you know uh to what capacity he was whether he really was uh you have to know also so that the vast majority of Freemasons even though there are that say they have you're not allowed to be associated with it in any way but the vast majority of Freemasons uh are not really the ones that are part of the idolatrous and you know practices that they do at the upper levels uh a lot of the people that are Freemasons they're just going to networking meetings they're just looking for business contacts they're looking for friends they're looking for attention so they're not the ones that are doing all these uh you know horrible ceremonies and things like that uh that's uh you know usually when a person is deeper in there I actually uh um you know knew somebody that was a Freemason for I don't know maybe 60 70 years something like that you know he was he was in his 90s so this is a guy that was uh knew a lot uh and uh yeah there there's certainly uh certain things that uh are 100% idolatry and even satanic but again it's not across the board should a Jew be involved in Freemasonry absolutely not what is what what does it have to do with your uh your life you should be part of your Jewish organization you should be part of your congregation you should be part of your K you should be part of uh world of tah not uh you know wasting your time with these uh foolish things not even for the sake of business it's not it's not necessary and it's certainly not a not a good idea uh you know because if you open a small opening for the Satan he'll end up taking over your whole house that's what hasem said to in the Book of Genesis he says to him uh if you uh repent then good but if not you're leaving an opening and if you leave an opening you know it's eventually going to end up being a disaster as a non-jew if someone stole for my deceased mother am I obligated to forgive the thief in order to not return after death no you don't have to forgive the th Thief at all uh for the foolish person that says that the prophet Isaiah the holy prophet Isaiah smoked pot this is complete stupidity at a very high level you probably smoke pot a lot so you think that other people smoke pot uh but smoking pot is forbidden uh according to the Torah uh if it's for the sake of pleasure if it's for the sake of medicinal reasons and you somebody has a chronic disease teas of some kind kind and the only medicine available is marijuana that's one thing but if somebody's doing it for pleasure it's absolutely forbidden because it uh distorts the person's uh you know uh state of mind and uh distorting your State of Mind means that you are not prepared to serve your creator you're not allowed to pray that way you're not allowed to learn toah that way and a prophet had to be much Holier and was much holier than uh than than anybody else out there because he had to literally be prepared to literally speak to God at any given moment so to say that the prophet Isaiah smoked marijuana is it's not only a uh something that's stupid like if I can send you a degree to your house if I can send you a degree to your house I'll frame it I'll frame it nice beautiful frame maybe even put like a logo on it put your name on it and then on top of it call you stupid something like that that would be an appropriate that would be an appropriate degree for that statement now I know you may not have meant to be so stupid but I have to I have to make an example of this because you're talking about you're talking about the Holy prophets of am and you're saying that they're degenerates Poe heads like you like you're comparing the holiest people in history to aad plays video games there's no other way there's no other way to acknowledge that other than offer you the certificate or offer you to retract the statements and then I also will retract my statements I'm not going to order the certificate anymore perhaps we can make a different certificate for a good thing that you do like doing Chua and then I could send you a certificate says he's B cha he's great he's amazing we love him Hashem loves him he did Chua he made a mistake wonderful but to go and say that the greatest people that ever lived the ones that himself testifies they spoke to him in such high level that their conversations are part of our Torah for eternity meaning the words that were exchanged between the prophet and are part of Eternity to see that that person is a degenerate pad forsaken the Tor removing his mind from where he's not even allowed to pray needless to say be a prophet you if you understood what I'm saying before you made that statement you would give yourself that certificate and certainly you would give the certificate to whoever told you this nonsense so please do Chua and stop with the nonsense why is Al not translated I don't know what that means sorry by what is the requirement for for the Judaism Messiah uh well the the ramb writes in uh the things that are required to happen in order for someone to have what's called meaning that it's possible for him to be mashia number one he has to be from direct descendant of King David from the Father's Side okay not from the mother's side from the father's side he has to be descendant of King David that's number one number two he has to be a very holy man that follows the Torah number three he uh he has to uh a um publicize the Torah not just learn for himself these are some of the minimal requirements for him to be have even simply the possibility of being mashia he has to bring peace to the world no more no more war he has to get to do CH he's gonna also build the bet mikdash these are things that would make a mashia peace in the world building the bet mikdash uh now this is the reason why no one that has come until now claiming to be mashiach or other people claiming them to be mashia or even in the of mashia meaning even the possibility of mashia uh because for example in uh you know if you're coming from Christianity and you believe that uh Jesus was the Messiah there's a very simple way to show that that's false even from the new testament which we also call the false Testament because it's false one of the ways is that you'll see that in the New Testament the uh New Testament says that Jesus is the son of God meaning that they're claiming obviously this is idolatrous and blasphemy but they're saying that God impregnated you know the uh the uh the zonai his mother now Mary Mary Mary Thea so now the problem here with this is that if they they actually believe that which is forget about the fact that it's complete stupidity and forget about the fact that that would mean that she she committed adultery with God who forbid adultery because she was married to ysf the carpenter so if she was married to ysf the Carpenter and yet God impregnated her that means that God committed adultery he violated his own tah so this is again another level of stupidity but even if let's say you want to go down this rabbit hole and say that this nonsense happened that in itself would mean that Jesus cannot be the Messiah why because Jesus is from the descendants of David not from the descendants of God not from the descendants of God now second thing is in the New Testament the false Testament it also gives the descendant of the lineage of of of uh of Jesus from yoseph from his father and it gives 25 different names in one place and 25 different names in a different place and you'll see that the 25 names in both places are not the same now of course the the uh uh the missionaries uh you know see this get confused and after a while they come back say no no one of them is from the mother and one of them is from the father well first of all if you see to give the lineage uh of of the mother and show that somehow she's connected to King David is useless because the Messiah does not come from you know the the mother's side David so it's irrelevant to know what her lineage is that's number one number two you'll see that from the Joseph side it has no connection whatsoever to King David and even if you wanted to argue that ysep side comes from David it's still irrelevant why because you already said previously that Joseph is not his father he's just the guy that's married to his mother he's the guy that his wife got pregnant with somebody else and brought a m to the world and that's the reality Jesus was a Mel the wife committed adultery so to turn the zon that brought to the world into the mother of God who's now somehow humanized himself to become a person that then goes against the very same sages that tried to help him calling them Pharisees instead of literally following their teachings and and and the words of the Torah they were trying to help him so to call this guy God or Messiah or anything that's positive is ludicrous but the point being is is that from the New Testament you can see that it's not possible for Jesus to be the Messiah not only because he never brought peace to the world if you haven't been sleeping under a rock you could notice that for the last 2,000 years the world has been in constant War mainly spearheaded by the church the very same church that created this belief system of of yoske Killing In The Name of Jesus instead of bringing peace to the world there so there's no world peace the BET mikdash was destroyed the Jewish people that are called aem's chosen people murdered year after year decade after decade generation after generation the Torah the New Testament contradicts it the New Testament nullifies it the New Testament says it's no longer valid the same Torah that God says will never change the lineage of Jesus have nothing to do with King David and even if you wanted to say that Joseph was related to King David even if you wanted to say that Joseph was King David okay just just Shalom but just stupid thing that they would say it's still irrelevant why that same book said that Joseph is not Jesus's father so what do you say oh no no but we believe that he was the adopted son what Jack in the Box Chinese cookie did you get this from so if you want to follow the truth you'll run away from Christianity you'll leave all the lies there you'll start learning what the Torah says and you'll see that in the Torah you could ask any question that you want and you'll get answers with sources that do not require you to stretch the truth to the wildest places of your imagination hoping that you're correct but the minute that you tell this to somebody that even has the same belief Sy system as you you'll see that both of you have maybe the same general belief but completely different beliefs that make that up where you believe one thing that they believe something completely different and it's not a custom it's literally belief some people believe that Jesus was God some people believe that he was you know a the Son of God some people believe that he was just a human being that is a uh you know is is a good person and some people believe all types of other things like you're never going to find two Christians that have the same belief why because they're all being lied to and the the one thing with with with uh with lies is that you keep lying keep lying keep lying and you'll see that the story keeps changing keeps changing keeps changing so I highly recommend you watch the different lectures we've made about Christianity about the New Testament you literally find yourself initially baffled distraught uh perhaps even traumatized that you've believed a lie your whole life but the good news is after you have abandoned the LIE then you can make yourself into a vessel to accept the truth and follow the holy Torah that has legitimate a information that is provable that scientifically archaeologically uh based on the verses based on literally every aspect that you can possibly imagine and you don't need to stretch the truth you could prove everything rationally and you'll see that all of the Jews that are following the Torah have the same exact belief system same exact foundational belief system some may have different Customs than others for example the Jews that are from ashkenas from Europe may have different customs of food different customs of clothing different customs of how they fulfill certain mitv uh then let's say the Safari Jews from Yemen or from Syria or from Tripoli or from theim or from uh you know different different uh uh parts of Judaism those are different Customs that are different but as far as the foundational beliefs it's the same thing across all of Jews uh all the Jewish people that are following the Torah now if you find a Jewish person uh that is not following the Torah instead he's an atheist then obviously he may have been born Jewish to a Jewish mother but he's not following Judaism so he's not exactly the uh representation of Judaism Judaism is defined by what the Torah says not by uh what any says you have to follow what T says and you look at the the greatest sages of our times in previous times have always had the same fundamental beliefs they haven't changed in 3,300 years whereas in Christianity you'll see they literally change from week to week from month to month from year to year from Pastor to Pastor from priest to priest the priests of today completely disregard the priests of a 100 years ago 200 years ago 300 years ago they don't even quote them they all write all types of books quoting thems in themselves they care less about the history and of scholarship for the last 2,000 years that came from different uh uh Christian Scholars why because everyone in Christianity believes that they're the best one that their belief is the best one this is the exact opposite of how we work in Judaism in Judaism there is nothing new there is nothing new everything we say has to have a source that comes from before us so I heard or learned what I learned from from my Rabbi my Rabbi learned from his Rabbi his Rabbi learned from his Rabbi and of course all of these rabbis either you learn directly from them through speech or from their books and they quote where they got it from and you see they got it from a different book from a different Rabbi from a different generation and you'll see how everyone eventually goes back to the Torah itself it all goes back to Mount Si it also goes back to the written in the oral tah no one can create anything new there is nothing new if you mention something you're as as a Jewish teacher you're obligated to provide a source you're obligated to provide a source why because this not only a shows that what you're saying actually is part of the Torah for the last 3,000 plus years but also by bringing the source you're also bringing the Salvation you're bringing the mhia closer and that's what the m in says that we learned that by bringing the source uh when you say brings the Salvation from The Book of Esther when Esther uh found out from M that there were two people that were trying to kill the king she went and told the king now as the king's wife she could have easily taken the credit for herself and said listen there's two people trying to kill you and simply taking the credit but what did she do no she said to the king listen there's two people trying to kill you I heard this from modai now this didn't really seem to matter at that time because okay so they saved the King's life they killed the murderers and that was that for years nothing happened but the name m was written in the book of memories of the king and years later after the the decree against the Jewish people was passed by by Haman he wanted to destroy all of us the king saw in his book of memories that there was one person in there named modai that was not given any type of a reward for saving his life and he said you know what give him a uh give him a reward honor him and so on and this was the beginning of the Salvation that eventually destroyed Haman and all the enemies now how did so the so the the sages teach how did this all happen it was due to the fact that Esther not only only told the king what she told him but she told him it with a source when she told him to the source she brought truth to the world when you bring truth to the world you bring the Salvation closer had she not given him the source that means that Mod's name would have not been in the book and thereby all of that domino effect of positive all the domino effect of Salvation would have not happened so from there we learn bringing truth to the world brings salvation to the world and that's why when I speak and any Torah scholar that speaks when they mention things they'll tell you page numbers names of books it's not to impress upon you their scholarship but rather to provide you a uh a statement of authenticity that this is not something that I'm making up this is what our tradition is this is what we're obligated to do to show you that what we're saying comes from the Torah it doesn't come from our mind doesn't come from our opinion in Christianity none of this exists any of these famous uh pastors uh that have uh hundreds of millions of dollars in their bank accounts and write books that are sold like as if they're free there's no appreciation for previous scholarship no concern whatsoever for previous scholarship and in fact all of them renew all of them renew the old and disregard the old and you go from one Church to another church One Pastor to another Pastor you'll see they're all different there's no two that are alike there's no two that are alike why it's all man-made so there's no limitation to how much you can manipulate man-made opinions abandon the opinions of men and adopt the opinions of God and you'll save yourself from Eternal G in this world and the next hi what is the reward for guarding your eyes and guarding your breath a uh first of all you make yourself a uh a vessel to receive blessings because the one thing that destroys all blessings is by uh being immoral by wasting seed uh secondly there's a uh over 100 lectures and a few films that I've made about the topic of wasting seed uh called T watched the film called tunit that we made uh it has uh over a hundred and uh over 110 sources uh maybe even 117 sources in it uh that from the different parts of the tah uh that will show you all the different things about the issues of immorality of wasting seed not protecting your eyes uh once you see that film your uh understanding is going to Skyrocket and then after that you follow the uh tun guide that we have which has a very comprehensive study guide uh that uh every guy and girl should uh should add to their regiment to overcome the issues of immorality uh especially with pornography modesty and things like that uh the guide is free you can download it from our website b.org in the ebooks section it's called t t i kku n uh and you'll see it over there and you could click it and it'll open up different lectures um that we've made about the topic according to rambam kabala is blasphemy is that correct the rambam never said that are there people in the world who guarding Angels Satan such as asav yeah of course all the people that follow the uh evil for what are the biggest mitv says we don't uh quantify or give a uh a price for every single Mitzvah uh but clearly the uh most significant obligation that we all have is to sanctify hashem's name that's called kashm K and everything that we do as whether it's keeping Shabbat giving learning Torah that is a uh part of it is sanctifying hashem's name but there's also things that you could do to sanctify his name hashem's name to do Kem uh that it's not even from directly from a uh positive mitvah uh but certainly the uh the purpose of uh of us being in this world world as far as our servitude of hem is to sanctify his name so much so that the says if you did not sanctify aem's name today for what were you created meaning if a person did not sanctify aem's name that day simply there's no point for them to be in the world so everything that a person does to uh follow the tah is a a level of it is sanctifying hashem's name but of course a person should do things Beyond above and beyond uh the obligations to sanctify aem's name as far as the value of each and every other Mitzvah we don't know the uh amount of reward for one Mitzvah over the other but we do know the punishment uh for violating certain MIT uh for example if a person steals uh and they get caught in this world they uh they have to pay double but if a person kills intentionally then there's a death penalty uh if a person desecrate Shabbat a uh you know accidentally at the time of the bet mikdash they would have to bring a sacrifice today they would have to give takaka but uh if they uh intentionally violate Shabbat uh they drive on Shabbat for example intentionally knowing that it's Shabbat that at the time of the bet mikdash they would get a death penalty uh today they still get a death penalty it's just not uh executed by the uh the sages because we don't have a Sunan anymore but they still have on their account a debt of a death penalty uh so when you see for example what happens unfortunately where you see a 29 year old young guy successful lawyer multi-millionaire nice guy everybody likes him you know decide to take uh a stroll you know a drive uh with a uh you know you know and enjoy his brand new $500,000 Ferrari uh on the day of his sister's wedding crap crash and die um that's correct that's that's death penalty that's death penalty not only death penalty to him death penalty to everyone else that suffers from it so point is is that the uh we know that there are certain things that have more severe punishments than others and I dis I discussed much of that in the Gom film uh where it talks about different levels of punishment for different sins I only understood the part about messia Messiah having to be a descendant of King David anything else yeah I just gave you a 15minute rundown of uh the obligations of Messiah if you didn't understand it then watch it again when I post it on YouTube tomorrow all right if I pledge charity before Rashana is this setting up what Hashem will give me for the upcoming year Well if a person gives Saka let's say for example right now for the campaign that we have then they're in essence investing into the Torah this will certainly improve their judgment that's on R for the upcoming year there's no doubt of that uh good coming out of it if you're giving it to the right place now uh can it happen more than just for one year sure meaning it doesn't have to be just hasem gives you a reward for one year he can give you a reward for a lifetime he can give you a reward for a day it depends how much uh you contribute uh and also people have to be very careful to not promise to give and not give because when it comes TOA uh when you say I'm going to give let's say I'm going to donate $5,000 to uh but I need to uh you know I need a couple of months to do it no problem now if a couple of months pass and you have the money and you don't give you have a problem why why because you promising to give money for the sake of Torah is considered a vow it's considered a so uh it's breaking a is a very very big problem it's a very big problem so a person has to make sure that whatever donations you promise to give to whoever you promised if you spec specified where you're giving it to you have to give it to now the only uh uh uh side note that I would add to that is that if let's say for example you promise to give to a let's say a certain organization and you promise I'm going to give them you know uh $5,000 uh in you know let's say in a few months from now or even in a week from now and then you have the money but in the interim between the time you promised and the time that you had to give you found out that this organization really is not what you thought they were they're really Heretics they're really teaching things that are against the Torah they're Idol worshippers then you no longer have to give it to them and you should not give it to them because you would be supporting and becoming partners with the heresy that they teach but you still have to give the money for the sake of T just have to pick a different organization that that's doing it so that's the only time that you're allowed to not give it to the place that you promised to give but you still have to give don't you know when it comes to a uh donations for the sake of the Tor whatever you said you will give uh it becomes a vow in fact there are some opinions we don't to this but there are some opinions in the say that even what you think that you're going to give uh should be considered like a vow but that's not what we we is what you say what you say that you're going to give you have to uh uh you have to give now seeing again even if you write it it's the same thing it's a whatever comes out and that you say you're going to give you have to give uh if and that's that's important for a person to do what he says where am I answering the questions from I'm looking I have a feed from uh YouTube Tik Tock uh some coming from WhatsApp and some from uh uh Facebook so um hundreds of question questions hundreds of questions I can't look at every question plus you know sometimes people uh comment so I have to skim through that and waste time sometimes the questions are not really uh relevant uh to the matters are hand or sometimes you know so I'm doing uh the best that I can rob Israel said that we are allowed to turn on and off electricity on is this true no it's not true he should go back to rical school a gentleman of course gives his future wife an engagement ring when the couple gets engaged said this is forbidden the engagement ring is given after the wedding ceremony is this for everyone or specific to their custom uh well I mean technically it's a uh the whole concept of engagement ring is not a is not a Jewish custom at all engagement ring is something that was invented by the Americans uh specifically by uh uh Diamond's a girl best friend uh K Jewelers I think it was that's the whole kind the whole the whole thing of engagement rings is an American invention it's not even ancient one came from Jewelers very very good marketing still be used to this day uh but as far as giving giv a gift uh to the woman and and a man and the woman giving a gift to the uh to the man when they're engaged this is you know some people prefer to do that some people prefer not to do it but there's no obligation whatsoever to do it uh and uh really the the person should not invest a lot of money in the gift that he gives a woman before they get married he should give her uh whatever he wants to give her after they're married after they married married this whole uh you know American tradition of giving expensive engagement rings before getting married is not only stupid and has nothing to do with Judaism uh but it's also very expensive and leads to more problems than good leads to more problems than good you know how many times I've heard you know people tell me listen what do I do with the engagement ring we ended up bringing off the engagement do I still have to give it back which the answer is yes yeah if you broke off the engagement you have to give the engagement back he gave it to you only under the condition that you're going to marry him he didn't give it to you just because he wants your uh your uh finger to look uh sparkly for somebody else to uh to enjoy uh but uh as far as the whole thing of giving big gifts before marriage is not a good idea but after marriage buy as much as you want spoil her spoil him enjoy but the the whole thing of giving the uh big engagement rings big big waste of money and problem causer how can a nohide break a n there's no concept of n for a nohide there's no concept of n or a or for no Heights so the best thing for everybody is to know that don't make a n don't make n don't make and that that would save you a lot of headache okay we learned for nearly three hours we uh hopes that uh the about are not only going to be learned but applied anyone that wants to uh push themselves to the Limit and beyond the limit to help to help the organization continue bringing more Glory to's name bringing more Torah to the world bringing things more like this AI Rabbi the movies the different things now is the time to help us to help us build the Yesa to help us help is eat to help us build even more C to do more things we have a bunch of things that we've been working on a couple things just came out the AI Rabbi is out that's going to be continuous development we have a uh a couple of small uh uh films that are going to be out in the next few days we have a huge film our big annual film coming up very very soon I just got a notice today that the uh possibly the final version is ready which means that release will be within probably the next month or so month two months depending if it's really the final version or not uh usually there's a couple of final versions but that's the major production movie the last one if you guys remember that we had this a uh the G movie and that g movie has made more people do cha than I can count uh so this movie is very different than all the other movies before every time we re uh remake ourselves recreate you know re redo ourselves reinvent ourselves I should say uh to bring more stuff to to to do uh new things that could be uh applied that we haven't done again we don't like to repeat the same thing we don't like to repeat the same stories we don't like to repeat the same things we like to bring new things so the movie is very very different than all the other films we've made before and uh I know it's G to help a lot of people anyone that wants to help with that it's a huge production enormous amount of money goes into it time resources money so anyone that wants to be a partner in the film there's still time to become a sponsor and uh put your name and the credits if you'd like uh as far as the uh uh technology we also have a another major app uh that's in the works that uh um could very well be uh you know another life Cher for countless Jews for countless Jews um and this is certainly in the works we have both a lot of things we have a few big things happening in Israel we have of course the big campaigns right now where we have the ks learning the couple of events uh we're going to end up having three events uh in Israel for the high holidays uh to uh three different opportunities to help feed Torah Scholars uh give them money for the holidays they would be learning the shots for a whole day and uh lot of good things a lot of good things huge commitments still don't know which vessel is going to choose to help us pay for all of it but if you want to be a partner in there now is the time to push yourself more than you ever did before and I can assure you that the more you push yourself to help us the more is going to help you every one of the years we've had this I've said this only difference in this year is that it's bigger commitments but also this year we brought more sources who the past donors the past donors came and spoke for themselves to tell you the extraordinary Miracles they got so now is the time to donate to help and of course everyone should certainly subscribe to the new app the AI Rabbi uh spend a few dollars get yourself nice uh Rabbi ruin in your ear at all times from the shim and also from your questions and you don't have to wait for every Wednesday for questions because you could literally get them every day just at all times you don't have to worry about if your turn's going to come up and I'm going to read your question because you could literally ask a million questions if you'd like thank you very much for learning with us bless each and every single one of you donate at bk.org or the uh website bash.org BH torah.org and all the other links that are going to be in the description on the screen and everywhere else bottom line is you could do a lot of good things with the money that hasm gives you and also if you are sending larger checks uh for for some of the larger donations you could also do it by sending me a copy of the check uh to my WhatsApp or my email and we can deposit that way if you want to save the time and the uh headache of sending it in the mail you could also do it that way if you'd like only if it's a US check I can't deposit International checks with a digital version of it uh but they with those has to be a physical copy so if you're from Canada or the UK uh then those checks would have to be uh original but us the banks accept the checks digitally okay and B theem we'll continue to learn again together next week call the greatest investment that a person can possibly do is to invest as much as possible into CU hi everyone bezra hashem's rash sh campaign will be starting soon and I wanted to give you my experiences with it hi my name is sh Levy Shalom everyone my name is Jonathan my name is Moshe and I've been a contributor to Rabon sh and RAB campaign since the start of my TR over the last couple years I was fortunate enough to partner with them during this campaign I have seen protection from the almighty and blessing for my family what I love about the organization is they're very very clear on where the money is going I just wanted to give a short video and tell everyone who have personally seen and experienced the Miracles and the blessings that Hashem has given me and my family since I've started supporting B Hashem my mother's cancer going to remission my wife's pregnancy being easy and delivering Healthy Babies I've seen many miracles many blessings I found a wife had two amazing kids had an increase in parnasa I would like to encourage everyone to become a partner with this organization if you contribute to this campaign because there's not many like this that give so much to am Israel and I truly believe one of the biggest reasons is because of supporting Bez Hashem and receiving a personal blessing what BM does is it makes you into a real authentic Jew according to the Torah because once you understand hasem once you know AEM and and and you understand why things happen in the world why things happen in your life uh this is the biggest wealth that one can require and this is the kind of wealth that no money in the world can buy only the performance of Mitzvah and the study of Torah can buy you that and I really invite everyone ask that everyone uh participate for their sake and for the sake of am isra and obviously the sake of the world I urge you to open up your heart open up your wallet support this incredible cause by donating you're not only helping others but you're also opening the door to Divine blessings in your own life by really setting hashem's children on the right track Let's Make a Difference together one person at a time thank you and may Hashem bless all the sponsor and grow thez ratm [Music] organization well to start off AI Rabbi is both an independent app on the App Store both Google and IOS as well as part of our Bez the shm app so of course let's start off with the a Rabbi beautiful appearance as you can see AI Rabbi has many capabilities first off it's an AI model that is based on kosher Torah sources that we have uh investigated and we have deemed kosher that's based on AA based on Orthodox Judaism unlike many of the other uh different things that you may find out there that are just based off of the internet or chat GPT and different things these are Torah sources not only are these Torah sources you'll actually be be provided the sources as you'll see from this presentation the second thing is when you use it in our app you'll also be able to pinpoint the questions to specific shim so if you watch one of my shim you have a question about it or you're looking for something regarding a specific sh AI Rabbi is going to be able to provide you the answer third you'll be able to speak as well as text the AI Rabbi and the AI Rabbi is going to be able to speak or text you based on your preference and last but not least you'll be able to use it on WhatsApp as well let's see a demonstration so as you can see AI opens up it's a beautiful appearance it has a uh 30 different languages that are available to you so if you want to ask it in Spanish and Chinese and uh uh Portuguese whatever you want to do it's available for you we'll start off with a simple text question that we want aab to uh answer us tell can you tell me about rabiaa so as you can see it goes over here and usually after about uh a little a minute or less it's going to give you not just a short answer it's going to give you a whole story that you could write a book about if you want and you have an answer of all answers over here and it keeps going and going and going and going and going and then after you see this beautiful answer not only you have that you also have the sources what are these sources so you have sources such as Al or you can go to perhaps place that you may be familiar with oh what am I and what am I so first as see first we find out who is this R so it's time stamped to the sh so it doesn't only provide you the sh but it gives you the time stamp exactly of where the sh I'm speaking about the topic itself and as you can see it provides multiple sources different shim that one was one this is another and so on and so forth and as I said you could also do this on the regular app so everything is one place go to the BM app you see on the bottom it has here AI you press the AI and it's the same exact thing as the other app only difference is when you have it in the main bzm app you'll also be able to ask specific questions on specific shoing next let's say you wanted to have a audio response so you would have this response over here you press it on top and I already asked a question just to save time and uh I asked what is the difference between Orthodox and reformed Jews you're probably could have different questions let's see what AI Rabbi answers and what's the voice sound like rabie ruven AI speaking here as rabie yon Roven I firmly believe that there is only one authentic form of Judaism that aderes to the Torah Orthodox Judaism if you like me you probably want to listen a little faster reformed Judaism is a distortion of the true teachings and should not be considered a legitimate branch of our faith the key difference is that Orthodox Jews believe in and observe both the written Torah Five Books of Moses and the oral Torah talmud Jewish laws and traditions in contrast reformed Jews reject the Divine Authority and binding nature of the oral Torah reformed Judaism originated in the 19th century with figures like Moses Mendon who advocated being a Jew at home and a regular person outside this philosophy led to rejecting aspects of Jewish law and practice that reform leaders saw as incompatible with modern values today okay now also with the same thing with this if you want sources you have sources let's just pick any one of them let's pick the second one and it goes to one of our 14,000 lectures that are out there that you'll see myself speaking about the father is Jewish and the mother is not Jewish stamp hours the uh the child is not Jewish this is another leure this is going somewhere else this is a whole lecture about reformed Jews so you'll see that this database that we've created here is not only comprised of uh different reliable Torah sources that are available whether it's musfi or or hi or different places that uh we have reliable answers but you also have lectures so whether you want a text a text answer or you want a video answer as far as the sources you'll have that as well and you'll also have yourself a written or a uh audio response next want to see what else the rabbi can do now let's say you have a relative that speaks a different language whether it's Spanish Russian or 30 other languages that we have in the system and you want to answer the same question that you had or a different question but in Spanish so I asked it can you uh tell me what I should tell my kids but why should I teach my kids in Spanish speak let's see what about if we did it in Chinese want to know Chinese tell me I speaking here you get the point amazing stuff but let's say I want a text response in Chinese or let's say you know what Russian give me a response in Russian as you can see I went up there and pressed the text on top and then I asked the question in English or I could ask in Chinese I could ask the question in Russian but I could simply just tell the system to uh respond in uh in a different language if I want and it'll respond in a different language and then again you'll have endless sources for different things you'll even have ra V Miller in there you'll have different things that are available out there but we did the work for you by simply doing all the research that could possibly be done to make it easily accessible for you what you could access on your own we did for you simply by click of a button what else is available here now of course everyone knows one of the main ways that anyone can reach me is through WhatsApp and I think it's the best platform for messaging and you may agree because you've asked me questions on it what about AI Rabbi does a rabbi like WhatsApp well if you press this green button you go to WhatsApp and now all of a sudden you have ai Rabbi on your WhatsApp and as you can see I've asked it some questions what did I ask him do Heretics get punished in this world or from just the next World I ask him an audio question do the Heretics get punished in this world on the next world let's see what aien AI speaking here my dear friend Heretics who deny the Torah and MIT are punished in both this world and the next 100% according to the severity of their sins in this here you see rabot lots of wonderful things and one last thing I want to show you is that if somebody let's say wants to get a devout Torah for Shabbat or wants to get a story or want something you have different options that you can go to AI Rabbi and you could ask him if there was a film you're asking about there a you know common questions that you'll also already have on the platform that you could just ask the ask the system and see what it says and here again this is also both on WhatsApp as well as on uh the app itself and here I'm going to ask a rabbi for is their Eternal punishment and here initially since I didn't apply I didn't uh sign up yet with this phone it's going to ask me do I want a voice recording or do I want a text message so let's just say I want a text one so it's going to give me a text response oh and here we go it provided me sources in the lectures that I could press and go watch or it a uh gave me an audio response as you can see here these are the lectures you can press them but over here it says I have four remaining questions so the free questions that you get just to try this out to see how amazing this thing is is H five questions after that there's a small subscription fee depending on the questions I wouldn't be surprised if you end up learning an enormous amount of toah as a result of this uh app because that's the whole goal of it you'll have the ability to ask questions at will you'll be provided sources which are extremely important and bring the MH closer as the says to us and most importantly you'll be able to know the truth and be able to rely on the sources this is after an enormous amount of and sacrifice and it's just simply another way that you could learn to and support our organization and make sure to learn from it share it and will bring mhia closer enjoy call and be holy n [Music]
