Living Shabbos Every Day

Firstly, good afternoon, Abba. >> Afternoon. >> Huge welcome back, Tavi Adhari. WELCOME HOME. >> [cheering] [applause] >> I WANT TO SHARE I WANT TO SHARE GOOD STUFF, so I'm going to ask Aviad Benyamin and Yehuda to decode but unquote. Let's go. >> Nice cold. >> We're going to warm things up here. This is the shamash. My shoes? >> Huh? >> I want to I want to welcome Mrs. Burstyn. I want to welcome Mrs. Burstyn to the Yeshiva and welcome her here. >> [applause] >> I want to express that the amount that Avi does for Yeshiva is remarkable. I'm coming off my tzei Shabbos when him and Yisroel like saved our life. But just in general, Avi's what Avi carries on his plate, I appreciate a lot that a human a human being can do a lot. And I like when we push ourselves. I think we we contain a lot. And the amount of things that Avi balances is remarkable to me. He's somebody who's strong with the minyanim, has sidurim, kvu'im. Somebody who works, who earns a parnassah. Somebody who's running the Yeshiva. The amount of things that he does is remarkable. Rav Asher Arieli once said in the me'ar that if you have a task to do something, ask the busy guy, don't ask the bored guy. The busy guy finds more room for more things. The busy guy finds more room for more things. I love the way Avi pushes himself and specifically in this way he reminds me a lot of my father. My father had a crazy schedule, like really wild. Literally, if you went through his day, wild. What was very cool is when you met him there was a tranquility. He did not feel tense. And that to me that's like the art. To be busy is important, but to have a certain menucha, tranquility, and a calmness. We're doing a lot, fine, but then calm, patient. I admired my father had this quality and my rebbe. My rebbe, when you spoke to me, looked bored. And he carried a lot. It's a meat of inner tranquility. It's no cons. People certainly you learn with design to do a lot, but we also need shabbos in our life. I'm going to talk about shabbos kodesh. I want [snorts] to talk with Avi Wurtzburger, a busy person, but yet a calm. My father had this meter. He was busy like crazy. He was a chiller. He spoke like a twi- a chilled guy. It's It's a very cool combination. I want to talk about it this this afternoon with Avi and Avi's mother being here because I see in Avi somebody who has a lot on his plate, but has a calmness. Doesn't give that off. It's something I aspire to. You could be You could run around. We got Israel. We go to many yeshivas. So, you're busy. It's not worth if you can't be anywhere. You could be a hundred places and be nowhere. Could you show up? Could you show up to something? Could you be present? Could you manage dial in? Could you dial in to something like hard? I'm here. I'm like very present. Here is called Say there's a lot of why I like guys to take off coats is to dial in. I want to get a guy to be present to this, to the here, to the now. Dialed in. So, it's good you have you're busy, but also a certain presentness, a tranquility, a calmness. I want to talk about shabbos kodesh. This parshas Yisro speaks about shabbos. Yitz, take off your coat and I'm going to share some shabbos delights with you. My son asked me I love in when When sing zemiros, I like zemiros. We were talking with Mrs. Bertram this morning about Zemirot. I like Zemirot a lot. And my son knows that certain words hit me. I'm notorious amongst my children that if I like a song, it's like, "Oh, no." When Ezzy sees me get into a song, he's like, "Oh, no. Are we going to hit you?" My kids say you murder songs cuz then we just sing it till Mommy she can't hear it again. So, in in the Zemer Baruch, I like Baruch Kel Alyon a lot. We sing it weekly, my family, and I like the specific tune. We sing it in Yeshiva. It's a beautiful tune. [music] I like the tune. It's Hasidic. A Hasidic Yid composed that tune. I think it's stunning. Rav Moshe Goldman. He's in my boat. It's a beautiful tune. And I like singing that tune. When we come to the last stanza, so I like singing it multiple times. So, my son asked me. He said that song that he said, "I would sing other of the songs. Like, what hits you that you like that?" I don't want to say always. I want to say in these days something that hits me. The last stanza is Kodesh Yisrael. It is holy Shabbos Hamalka. Shabbos Hamalka, the princess Shabbos, the Malka, the Shabbos Hamalka, the queen Shabbos is holy. El Teyach Bateychem. Bring it into your homes. Make your home Shabbos stick. La Niach Bracha to have much blessing in your house. B'chol Moshvosaychem, in all your cities, Lo Sa'asu Melacha, don't do work. Bneychem U'vnoseychem, your sons and daughters, Eved Vegam Shifcha, your slaves and even your maidservants. So, I sing this always. And the last year or two or five, I sing Kaddish and twice. So my son says tatty like he said some of the other stances are exciting. This one says to bring Shabbos into your house. It brings bracha, but it's very negative. The whole motion say come and he knows I get very excited. The whole motion say come my don't do work. He said we say we have an issue what are you getting excited about? You're singing twice. Usually our says are exciting. Our says are over. Now he knows the latest says important. What are you singing? What are you fired up? You're singing it twice. Don't do the whole motion say come my he said what are you getting excited? It's true. Shouldn't do the whole motion say come But he said why are you singing it twice? What's happening? What's What's firing you up? So I want to share I I I'm not I It's like dangerous whatever you share what fires you up you're at danger of not being fired up then. So I I'm only talking old news. What happens this Shabbos will be this Shabbos. I want to express something that hits me a lot in not doing the whole motion say come that moves me. Not doing the whole motion say come see it doesn't do. Sometimes like a sensitive thing if you share it too much it's private you lose your yes from it. Sometimes could I to keep to keep inside what's exciting you sometimes. I want to share with my friends I have a question. So I'd like to share a rash in this week's that yesterday with the camera and talk about something I'm not saying this the only aspect really to the whole motion say come my don't do the whole motion say come but I want to share one aspect of not doing the whole motion say come that is Certainly the simplest that we don't do melacha on Shabbos. Melacha's creative on Shabbos. God's the creator. I'm not a creator. Hashem is the creative one. But I want to share something beautiful I that means a lot to me. CD, I want to talk about this. I happen It happens to be that I have a pinched nerve in my neck right now. It's been causing me tzuris. And I do think I do Again, I'm not It's always Never tell somebody who has a backache or a neck pain, "Sorry now." It's not nice. Because you're telling "Sorry now" is a doctor who felt that its roots were stress. It's very not nice. You have to be very careful to tell a guy. Because now only not only my in pain, but it's my fault. Like not only it's very painful. A guy has a backache, it's very very painful. A pinched nerve, it's hurting. It's painful to tell somebody "Sorry now." It's not only are you in pain, it's your fault. Like you're stressed. If you're a friend, you can say in a delicate way Right, then it's more stress that Yeah, there's a way there there are I do believe in Sarno. Anybody who needs to know about it Right, Brownstein knows about it. We all were aware and they're and they're and they're helpful techniques. How to help. But be careful cuz the pain is real. Somebody has a backache, they're in pain. Feel their pain. It is Thank you so much, Reb Ezzy. But I do I do tend I care a lot about doing. We're human beings. And we have We all have a lot on our plate we want to do. And we want to do and rightfully we want to do. I look at an Avi, how much he has on his plate. It's incredible. Tremendous amount on his plate. He's working He's holding down a full-time job. He's a dorm counselor. He has a schedule of serious learning. >> [applause] >> He's keeping a lot on his plate. We all need Shabbos Kodesh all week. I want you to hear what Shabbos is. I want you to hear I want to learn a Rashi. I think every guy in Yeshiva should memorize this Rashi. Do like crazy. Do like crazy. It's a beautiful world with an opportunity to be mikadesh Hashem shamayim and do and do a lot of special things. Don't ever forget this Rashi. If I could share a viata Rashi that I think is very magical and it means something to me. Rashi says Rashi says as follows. This week's parsha one of the serous the fifth number five of the serous hadibros that there there 613 commands number four. Thank you Ezzy. There 613 commands. There 10 that are that are specified the serous hadibros. What what's unique about these 10 has to be studied but clearly there 10 that are specified. We can go through the 10 quickly if the ever wants but the fourth the fourth one. The first ones Hashem I'm Hashem your God is awareness of Hashem. The second one is no other gods. One Hashem. Hashem one Hashem. No other forces no other powers. The third one is not swearing falsely. Is not swearing in Hashem's name. Don't say Hashem's name in vain. A shua sheker. Swearing in in God's name in vain is Hashem it's a it's a big shilo when a person's saying a brocha is Hashem not to say the Hashem in vain is the third. The fourth of the serous hadibros is Shabbos. Remember Shabbos. One of the things we do to remember Shabbos is we make kiddush. Shabbos is make kiddush. Some pashte mitzvah d'oraita, it's a Gemara, it's our mesechta, daf kuf vav in Pesachim, the mesechta that she was learning, Zachor al yom haShabbat l'kadsho. Make Kiddush, take wine, and make Kiddush. Kiddush is probably my favorite mitzvah in the world. A mishpacha gets together and is mekadesh Shabbat. We're the Shabbat observers, we're the ones who announce Hashem runs the world. That's the task of a Yid. And Kiddush. I ask my kids, I'm allergic to wine. It's a fact of my life. I'm allergic to wine. I break out in rashes, I can't breathe well. Yayin does something to me, and as such, I make Kiddush on grape juice. That is not the l'chatchila for me, it's l'chatchila. For my kids, I want them to buy a fancy bottle of wine and go out on Shabbat. Thursday, Wednesday, Friday. Avi, when you make Kiddush in your home one day, you go buy weekly. You go to the store and you buy a very very good bottle of wine. Nice, everyone. Buy, not stacking up. You buy preparation for Shabbat Kodesh. It's a mitzvah d'oraita, Zachor es Yom haShabbat l'kadsho. Sanctify, bring honor to Shabbat. Specifically, go to a store, buy a nice bottle, a really nice bottle of cover Shabbat Kodesh for mitzvah d'oraita of Kiddush, Zachor es Yom haShabbat l'kadsho. One of the ways we honor Shabbat is us Levi'im say the yom. What do we call today? What did we say today after Aleinu? Hayom yom sheni baShabbat shebo hayu Levi'im omrim. We call it sheni. We don't say hayom Monday. We call it yom sheni baShabbat, a mitzvah d'oraita of Zachor es Yom haShabbat l'kadsho, I'm remembering Shabbat. So, Sunday I call hayom yom rishon baShabbat. Monday, yom yom sheni baShabbat. Tuesday, yom yom shlishi baShabbat. That is a mitzvah that I say of honoring Shabbos cuz I'm remembering the seventh day. It's the third day to fourth day. I'm remembering Shabbos Kodesh. That's part of Zochor es Yom haShabbos l'kadsho. Rashi says the following words. When it says Zochor es Yom haShabbos l'kadsho, remember Shabbos to honor Shabbos. Sheshes yamim tavod, six days do work. U'vasa kol melachtecha, do all your work. Why is that Shem say very strange pasuk? I want you to hear this, Dovid. Yitz, I want you to hear this. Why is it saying six days work, do all your work? I mean sometimes I don't finish. What's the pasuk saying, do all? U'vasa kol melachtecha, do everything. Sometimes Shabbos comes, I didn't finish a lot of things. What's the pasuk expressing? Six days work, okay, you give me permission to work six. Shabbos, no. Yom haShvi'i Shabbos shabbaton lo sa'aseh kol melacha, don't do work. But it says six days work, u'vasa kol melachtecha, do everything. There many weeks all of us could testify we come into Shabbos feeling sleepy. I didn't do everything. I have a lot more to do. What is this do everything? U'vasa Yaakov. What's being said here, do all your work? Maybe do as much as you can. What's all? U'vasa kol melachtecha, do all your work. I'm going to try and I'm not working Shabbos. So I'll try to get in what I can. What's the pasuk saying? Six days work, u'vasa kol melachtecha, doesn't say anything. I can't work Shabbos beside it. I know it. Seventh day, what are you telling me, do all your work? And obviously any work I'm done is going to be done in the six days. What is being said here, do all your work on Shabbos. >> All your work on Shabbos. >> Don't be >> So be ready for Shabbos. Nice job, Yossi. >> Don't have work that goes over you're going to be thinking about it the whole Shabbos. It's going to be messing with your brain. >> So listen to the Rashi, but I want to say something deeper, yo. You're saying something, but there's something deeper. Listen to the Rashi. Everybody listen to the Rashi. Says Rashi "V'asisa kol melachtecha do all your work." This Rashi is like worth to be born for. >> To be born? >> Yeah, you read this Rashi like your a life well lived. Listen to this Rashi Chaim. I want to try to keep this all my life. I think this is Shabbos like to its deepest space. Says Rashi "V'asisa kol melachtecha k'she tava yishabbes." When Shabbos comes you beinecha should be in your eyes "k'ilu kol melachtecha asuya." As if all your work was done. "Shlo yit'areach malachi." You shouldn't be thinking about melacha. I'm going to I'm going to go I want to go deep into this. I want everybody to hear this. Says Rashi "The task is you should view it when Shabbos comes you should view it all your work is done." You shouldn't be thinking about work. Now the simple p'shat, the simple thing is the possuk God commands me in the Torah "Six days do all your work." "V'asisa kol melachtecha." It's a mental game. I have a lot of stuff coming into Shabbos. K'ilu trick yourself. K'ilu like a trick as as if things are done. You have a lot of projects, but we don't want you thinking about it on Shabbos. So when Shabbos comes you beinecha k'ilu K'ilu is that as if all your work was done. You shouldn't be thinking about it. Now we have a lot on our plate. And guys like "Okay, but k'ilu so v'asisa kol melachtecha I all your work, there's a key little game. You're working hard as if I have nothing. Come Shabbos, the problem is the guy has a lot on his plate. Somehow he's like struggling key little David. It's a tough task, Yitzy. Anybody Anybody's working. My wife's starting a business. She works day and night, night and day, working your head off. Come Shabbos, as if it's the She has a lot of tasks that she knows she's going to have to do. So, what's this game? Key little What is the call my luck there? You have to think key little it's finished, but it's not. I'm supposed to say I Let's say I can't fool myself, Haimo. Let's say I can't fool myself. I just can't. I'm not I'm not so good at that game. The guy has tons on his plate. What is the call my luck there? All your work is done, but it's not. So, it's how good you could trick yourself. I'm not such a good tricker myself. I have a lot on my plate. Binyamin, what's happening here? There's a task, and the time is said do all your work. But I can't do all my work. I have more work to do. Key little says Rashi, as if. When Shabbos comes, it should be in your eyes as if everything was done. You're not thinking you have to work. What is the bottom bring, my friends? Whenever you have a question like this, I'm asking a question on Rashi. Do all your work, says Rashi. It should be in your eyes as if you finished everything, but I'm not. It's all my brain. I'm sorry. Whenever you run It's a question a friction, yo. A real friction, not pretend. I want to do this, but I'm like freaking out. I have a lot on my plate. I'm stressed out. I have a I'm I'm stressed out. It's a lot on my plate. You tell Avi, Shabbos key little it's done, but it's not. I'm worried. Stop pretend. So, what's What's Hashem saying? What's being said here? What's the job of Shabbos Kodesh? And I want to express there's a job of Shabbos of understanding that what we have human beings wired to build, to create, and that's that's in bounds. We also have a space happening of some of state that we're good. We're good. In the Amish good. There's a deep place of some of my is good. I'm not a I'm not a creator. I'm good. Hashem six days and there's a you're allowed to build. And when you all build and create and build many structures there's a space to plug in and arrive and enjoy. Enjoy what is. Enjoy what is. Is a very deep space for understanding Hashem runs a good world. He's put us exactly the situations we need. It's very very deep. This is not just This is not one fooling oneself. This is more real than during the week that Hashem runs his world. Things are okay. Things are okay. We're in a things are good. Hashem's happy with us. There's a tremendous space of truth that's deep that's part of Shabbos Kodesh that you're plugging into the deepest truth of the world. It's interesting. Esther told by Mordecai and we're coming for him. Mordecai says to Esther, I want you to save the Jewish people. Risk your life. But he says to her very interesting thing and it's a very cool energy even in people do things. The energy is not you're saving the world. Oh my gosh, he's going to go off the he's this. Hashem Hashem's doing fine. He's doing Things will be good. Mordecai says to Esther Even without you things to be good it's a to do to be good but I shall be good I shall be good the world is good it's not going to fall apart things are good there's a beginning of Shabbos that you need all week it creates in doing if you see somebody the deepest year does a lot and as a tranquility of things are good Shabbos resides in them the whole week I happen to love the words kinda she love him Shabbos Shabbos is holy I'll take my take my bring it for brocha bring it into your house it brings blessing the whole my don't do work my son what he getting excited negative don't do work the don't do work is a very deep place that we're in good hands that some of the we have it good a human being is constructed of two parts the drive to do and create and build which is totally good but a very deep space called Shabbos that things are good is in a good space things [clears throat] are good if we can bring Shabbos into our life it's the source of brocha to deep deep tranquility a calmness a sense we're in very very good hands it doesn't deny six days of work six days busted but pull something into your deepest space Shabbos is good >> [clears throat] >> six days you doing all your work but we Shabbos and what saying is you're going to a deep space that we're good we're good it's good we're good the we're in a good space we're in a good space be present to a good reality somebody can be constructing and building and creating their whole life. If they don't have Shabbos, they're missing this deep profound Menuchas Hanefesh. This tranquility of knowing I'm good. I'm good. There people that I have met people the worst doers in the world. I have met a workaholic. It's one of the worst addictions of workaholic. I have met people have all sorts of addictions not to feel, not to be present to their soul. So one's addicted to pornography, one's addicted to marijuana, one's to drinking. One of the addictions there people that are workaholics. I've met people like this if they stop for a minute, they get depressed and they don't have Shabbos. It's a It's the hefekh of Shabbos Kodesh. Shabbos is a deep space. I'm good. I'm very good. And Hashem loves me and I love Hashem. And Melachas Tzarichasa, things are good the way it is. It's Sameach B'Chelko. It's mamash good. And if we could bring that deep space and merge that with six days of doing the Asisa Kol Melachtecha, do all our work. Of course we work and we bust it. But we're in the deepest place in in ourselves is Shabbos. And all week I remember Shabbos. And the deepest was not a workaholic, not somebody whose work is just not to feel. I could feel and think. I could pause. I could stop. I could be present and my mindset is good. Hashem's with me. I'm with him. From that space you could do Kol Melachtecha. This task and it's a difficult space to get to. I don't And it's something all of us have to study things. There's what to learn about this. But this task of Kilu Kol Melachtecha everything's done. I'm good. I'm good. I want and I have talked about this Sylvia in our own way of running places with a certain calmness. It's good. What's happening chance saying to me there's stress, there's anxiety, there's high pressure. No, no, no, no. Things are good. Things are good. Tap in, be present. The calmness, the tranquility of Shabbos, Hashem's running things just fine. This balance of being a person who works hard, but having Shabbos at like the core of your being. Calm the lock there's a certain we're in good hands. Hashem runs a good show. Hashem runs things well. This is the deepest balance of a year. This is why I love the I shouldn't say why I love it. But I sing this saying my and your cities don't do work. Come to a deep realization we're in good hands. Hashem's running a perfect show. He's running well, the world's good. That deep deep space to be in is part of the Shabbos. I want to learn about with the but first I want to hear Daniel's worries. >> Um >> [snorts] >> I have a hard time with the word it's like Why don't they use a word like happy? It sounds like big like like all your work's not done. >> Fair question. Very fair. Very fair question. There has to be a deep The word is because there are in the external I don't know there are things that look not done. So it says but the has to reflect the deep space that there's just a regular reality. >> So it's fake until you make it. >> I'm not saying fake it. Does it in the but in the it has to be to get here. That's that's how I'm seeing it. I want to I yeah. I literally seen this balance in doing things when you could be fired up to do and yet you could have a balance. It's good. It's good. It's good. I I've been with I told the chevra I told the chevra that I was at a chasuna I can't There was crazy traffic to a chasuna this week. And I was feeling I was feeling void of Shabbos. So, I got I got I got And a man, an old talmid chacham, took my hand. He said, "You could go slow." I took it like I'm in good hands. Like Hashem runs the world. and I were running on Motzei Shabbos. I I was pretty happy. I don't even remember Shabbos we were coming. It's funny, some Rishonim say Havdalah is a mitzvah d'Rabbanan. So, it's part of Zachor v'Shamor Shabbos l'kadsheiha, b'chnisa u'v'yetzisa. But I I want to If I can, I want to learn another Gemara about Zachor v'Shamor Shabbos l'kadsheiha. I'd like to learn a Gemara Bava Kamma. We're talking about balancing working hard but a menuchas hanefesh, deep calmness and tranquility. You see people that are hard workers, but it's so hard to be in their presence. There's no space. There's no menucha. That's void of Shabbos. I want to share Gemara Tazain. My father's favorite maseches in Shas was Bava Kamma. He learned it many many many many many many many many times. So, I want to learn a Gemara Bava Kamma Daf Tazain with the chevra that I find to be a beautiful Gemara on Zachor v'Shamor Shabbos l'kadsheiha. If we could learn this Gemara together, Gemara Tazain. My father had a tremendous ahavah for Bava Kamma. So, it would be a big simcha to learn this Gemara together, And the >> [clears throat and cough] >> the Gemara says as follows. Says the Gemara. Tanya. Tanya, we learned in a braisa. Gemara Tazain Amud Aleph. Amru alav al Shamaya Hazaken. It is said, Amru alav, it is said on him, on Shamaya Hazaken, kol yamav yo'echel l'kavod Shabbos. All his days he would eat l'kavod Shabbos. Very tricky. He would eat Monday the cover of shabbos. How was How was that? Just the words. He would eat coal yom of haya the cover of shabbos. All his days he would eat to honor shabbos. His key on Monday he'd have supper. It was a key of zachary shabbos honoring shabbos. How do you figure? How do you work it out? A cup. How do you eat supper Monday night with the key of zachary shabbos I'm honoring shabbos? What's going on? I'm going to I have a hidden dish that I've never shared with a human being that maybe I'm going to share maybe in a few minutes. I might share a hidden dish maybe. But let's see. But it says shammai all his days he would eat the cover of shabbos kodesh. All his days he would eat the cover of shabbos. Could be. I don't know if it's true. It doesn't need money. I'm worried. Maybe I'll share it with you privately maybe publicly. So what does that mean? That's interesting. You heard that as a plan that he ate less. No, not that to be hungry. He means he ate less to bring out shabbos eat more. We'll see as a different shabbos. That's a good shabbos. Yehuda says a guy can eat leaving. I know people who during the week won't have soda cuz they want to save for shabbos. So in a way they're eating has a zachary there's a zachary shabbos cereal. I like that a lot. My mama my holy mother had cereal only for shabbos. I like that a lot. >> My mom trying to make no sugar. >> But all week Okay, here I hear I hear. But there's a key of if you could save something for shabbos zachary is a key of zachary shabbos it's very cool. Says the gamora this is what shammai used to do. Matza bahema na Sunday he'd be shopping. He'd be in shop ready mamesh find a nice steak. But him and I find a nice animal. I'm a Zulu Shabbos. He'd buy it on Sunday. Look up at this one this one he did all week. Sunday he goes to the supermarket and he finds a nice piece of steak. He says for Shabbos kind of. Matzah Harris 9 men uh On Monday he found a nicer piece of meat. Minnie of China. See we take the second piece and eat the first piece. So it turned out he was eating the covered Shabbos. Oh let me eat this and save that. In his eating Rashi says so interesting. Let's not Let's read it. It's funny that's called eating the covered Shabbos. >> Why not? I'm saying you bought it for Shabbos and you're eating it during the >> Says Rashi eat the first one. Nemsa turns out I'll zoo he would eat this in order that the better should be ready for Shabbos. The hobbit covered Shabbos. I think this is so cool. It's a It's like a one dish a kid dish. Hillel now Zev it's so cool what's being said here. Sham I thank you it's so cool people know this Gamora don't get the one dish. It's not just he he bought the best thing for Shabbos. He wanted to eat all week the covered Shabbos. See on on Sunday he has two piece of meat and he's like hey this better. Okay I'm going to eat this to save that for Shabbos. So is a hero is a covered Shabbos. I'm eating this not this one. No no no that's Shabbos. So is a hero is an a hero. Why am I eating this one not that? The covered Shabbos. So in his a hero Rashi says Nemsa he was why am I eating this not that? To save the better one for Shabbos. So it turns out it's an achila of kavod Shabbos. His achila demonstrated in what he ate and didn't eat demonstrated a kavod Shabbos. It's a cool thing that his eating would demonstrate a kavod Shabbos. Somebody would say, why you eat that when you eat that? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. That's for Shabbos. See the dafka all week that was his like thing. He'd buy one thing for kavod Shabbos, but then he would find better and he'd eat the first saying, I'm eating this, that, that I don't want to eat, I want to save that. Then he would find better and eat that and say, no, no, no, no, no, no, I want to save the Shabbos. All his eatings were always in an eifen of describing that something better for Shabbos. He was busy with Shabbos the whole week. Now this inyan of being busy with Shabbos the whole week is bepnimius also. Nikudas of Shabbos say he's busy with Shabbos all week. Even during his time of work. But there's a kiyum of zachor es yom haShabbos lekadscho. That eimek that Hashem runs the world. That eimek that the human being were in good hands. Stop being a creator and Hashem Even when you're doing you're remembering Shabbos. That's deeply underneath in every Yid even in their doing. But this is what Shammai would do. Hillel didn't do this. Hillel aval Hillel hazaken midas chesed. Hillel's not arguing on Shammai that you should remember Shabbos. He had a The lashon mashma Hillel Hillel hazaken midas chesed hayisa lo. He had another attribute. It's not that the pasuk can bring that Shammai zachor is a kiyum Hillel also agrees that's a kiyum. But it says he had another mida shekol maisehu leshem shamayim. She'ne'emar baruch Hashem yom yom. He had bitochen that there'll be a better one for Shabbos. So when he eat this one, he trusted there'll be a better for Shabbos. Hashem will send something better for Shabbos. Now I want to express something. I want to I want to What's happening here? Shammai we we go like Shammai. Yeah, we Yes, we pasken like Shammai. There's an engine to prepare for Shabbos Kodesh and this whole thing Now what's this Hillel? Hillel just It seems like something so different. Hillel had bitochen all week. He would find something. He wouldn't say it's for Shabbos, then find better. Hillel would find something would say I'll If I found this during the week, Shabbos I'll definitely find better. All week he would have bitochen. Now Shammai at some you could ask, like Hillel is another applied like what's it saying of Hillel? And all week Hillel would live with bitochen. That I'll definitely find something better for Shabbos. I want to express that the whole task of remembering Shabbos Hashem runs the world. Hillel's bitochen is a remembering of Shabbos all week. Hillel's bitochen, he finds something nice. Shammai says, "Ah, for Shabbos." And then he finds something nicer, put it away, and eat. Hillel's bitochen that Hillel would say when he found something nice, cuz I'm not saying it's for Shabbos, I'll find something nicer. [applause] Welcome home Yehuda. Welcome home Yehuda. Nice haircut, Yehuda. Hillel's bitochen was a key of zachor Shabbos. His very faith, his very remembering that we're in good hands. So Hillel would find something nice. Shammai would say on the nice thing he found, "Ah, for Shabbos." And all week he was busy with Shabbos saying it's for Shabbos. Hillel would find something nice and he'd have bitacha, and I'll definitely find something nice for Shabbos. I want to say that bitacha itself was Shabbos during the week. >> Wow. >> The very faith was bringing Shabbos. I'm in good hands. So, I'm going to save this for Shabbos. Hashem's going to send send me this on Monday for Shabbos. He'll definitely send me something nicer. That bitacha itself that's the hepek of the pressure on the person. Uh-oh, I better Shammai is like doing something. I'll save this for Shabbos. Hillel's like a yoiser amuk in Shabbos. I don't have any pressures. He finds something nice. I'll save it for Shabbos. I'm in good hands. That alone is bringing the bitacha of Shabbos to during the week. The not doing melacha, he would have Hashem will provide. Hashem will send me. That's what Hillel would do. We have two fascinating anhogas to what's going on. Shammai would prepare lekovod Shabbos. He'd find something was for Shabbos. Then he found something better even in his eatings lekovod Shabbos. I'll eat the less, not the more. So, he was just doing more during the week for Shabbos. Hillel would find something nice. So, you would think do like Shammai, save it for Shabbos. Hillel would say, "Hashem's going to provide me for Shabbos." Could have bitacha. That itself is bringing Shabbos to during the week. Even at that time that I'm doing, Shammai is like doing for Shabbos. Hillel's being bitayach. Hashem will give me. Hashem will provide. There's two anhogas that two anhogas that are both They're both very important. Right, Overlander that Sal used to do preparations. It seems from Sunday. He would do something for Shabbos every day during the week. I don't know exactly. If they ask his wife, what do you Somebody could find out. What? >> [clears throat] >> He wanted to remember Shabbos. He wanted to remember Shabbos. So all week he's like handling Shabbos Kodesh. I'm claiming that Hillel's bitachon is itself bringing Shabbos during the week. The bitachon that Hashem will give me something with Shabbos, that alone is the inyan Shabbos. I'm in good hands. That's my inyan Shabbos. That was Hillel's way of bringing Shabbos during the week. They each have an eifen to bring. Shammai's eifen was buying something for Shabbos. Hillel's eifen is Hashem's going to send me something for Shabbos for certain. So it's two eifenim. You could study What? In this, the poskim, it's not me, the Mishna Berurah says you you do both. They're both inyanim. They're such an inyan. Hillel's not arguing on Shammai. They're such an inyan. I know what you mean. If you buy but you could do something for Shabbos Sunday. Even Hillel agrees that there's a maila to do something Sunday for Shabbos. He just here had a certain bitachon. Okay, that's good. So you have two anahagos. You have anahaga of Shammai, anahaga of of Hillel. Two anahagos. Should we read the Mishna Berurah? Should I find it? Let me see if I can find it. Oh, it's good. >> Is it Rebbe, is it the time to say happy birthday to Gribetz? >> Yeah, it's it's by the way birthday. >> Yeah, Hebrew birthday, yeah. >> So we'll sing happy birthday.

I had I told I'm going to tell you this story that it shows but it just to me that I have so many cute little stories like this. I was telling I was staying by my house one night and I told a story that it just happened to me. I got a call This is how it really happened and I told that I got I got a call this week until this going back a couple of years ago. How many years a few a few years ago. I told that a guy called me up this week and he said Rabbi, I want to ask you, mechila." I said, "Well, you know, he's making amends." Anybody knows about the 12 steps, you make amends. So, I have to ask him mechila. He said, "I know every single drawer in your house." And it was a little creepy. He started telling me private drawers and different things in my house, what's in every drawer in my house. He had addiction to he was addicted to medicine, and he was craving stuff, and he would look around my house, and he knew every drawer in my house. I was like, "Freaky." And he He said there were times he was alone in my house and he went through every drawer in the house. Not there's not There's a telling So, the guy was calling to ask mechila. So, I told "I got such an interesting call. The guy went through all the drawers and and and this and he asked mechila." It's like a little unsettling, but He took medicine. He was He was looking He wasn't trying to steal money. medicine. He took He found medicine, but in his want for that, he went through every drawer. And that's the part of describing it to me, what's in different places. So, he was asking me What did you say? Obviously It's funny. I'll tell you it's interesting you said it to me, Al. He wanted me to feel what he did. So, they're actually very impressive. He could have just said, "I'm sorry I looked around your house." He wanted me to feel freaked out. He was like a very cool apology. He really felt badly. [laughter] So, he was like expressing it's crazy what I did. He sent me an He wanted me to feel crazy. It's pretty cool. Yeah, he's telling me where where my socks are, you know? Trust me, it's weird. But the bottom line is is the guy asked me mechila. So, I told this story that I had an interesting story. >> [laughter] >> So, I told this story. Now, if you know my dining room kitchen dining my kitchen, there's just a lot of drawers in the kitchen.
