Why Kavel and Not Yehoshua? - Rabbi Jesse Horn

many of them freshly wonder why he was specifically khalif who has succeeded in quieting down the nation and supporting moshe publicly why not you sure wasn't he the greater the more famous the more prominent of the two mcfarlane point out that yeshua indeed was there's a guru in the beginning of seif yeshua that says when he was mashaaris moshe was more than a tom and he was the relationship was so deep he literally did everything to follow follow motion fill in his shoes and midrash and reinforce that by pointing out that he cleaned up this farm in moshe's basement but sometimes people want to hear someone who they think is not the leader groomed for excellence and that's yeshua was yeshua we heard of him before we hear him again afterwards moshe changes yoshua's name knowing he's going to be successful whether that change took place now or mutually rasmus looks his final but ultimately yoshua is someone who people see as moshe's protege khalif they see as one of them matter of fact that's one of the reasons why khalif has to go to severum to go diving by the kivrayavos according to rashi quoting the madrish because frankly he was more susceptible he was one of the mainstream people he wasn't unique and different like yoshua yoshua was groomed for excellence for religious leadership khalid was one of the people there are two powerful religious messages to take from this little devour torah one is that sometimes messages are more well heard more well received by mainstream baal about him not by the leaders and number two there are different roles different strokes for different folks each person has to figure out what they can do to serve hashem as best as possible one person's job is to be the leader like yoshua one person's job to be a mainstream regular person like i'll leave and navigate the crowd in the right direction the cause miller blind used to point out some people serve hashem by eating in some by fasting and perhaps the religious message is so profound but so important the goal is to figure out what you can do the strengths you have that goddess brother who blessed you with to serve him as best as possible it's so easy to be competitive to look over our shoulders at someone who looks like they are succeeding more in any area growing more religiously making more money succeeding getting better grades who knows what the issue is the goal is not to beat somebody else the goal is to become the best you you can become karish baku needs on his team yeshua's colleagues in each of us medrush actually says embracious rabb that avraham is tantamount to islam and i think the message is that even though they were so different from each other as long as you're trying your best and pulling your weight as long as you're doing what you're cut out to to do and not try to you know double up with someone else's role that's ultimately what college brother who wants the deep religious message is what strengths did god bless you with and how do you use them to make the greatest impact you possibly can
