Living Torah Museum Comes To Lakewood - Tour

Welcome to our new branch of the Lakewood Museum of the living Tor Museum the living tar Museum now has three branches the one in bar Park is focused on items that I mentioned in the T and in the N the one in the cat skills in fosburg New York is focused on mishas every K that's mentioned in the mission in fact recently we helped art scroll give out the new mishas on m c the one that we just opened in Lakewood is going to be focused on items that are mentioned in the gamarra as well as the animal section in bar Park we have animals mentioned in in the Tarra in the ccos we have animals mentioned in the mishna and in lakeood we have animals mentioned in the gamar so this is the differences between the different branches also in lakid we're can to have a special presentation on one of the's Dreams was that people should become very acquainted with Kim and understand the a of the mdash well we're going to show you a lot of that here in our Lakewood branch so let's talk about making the mishkon and to use an example all the Antiquities that we have here these are Originals mostly coming from sunken ships in the Mediterranean Sea and when we learn for example inish that it says that the zah that was used for the Mish was zah was pure gold in here we have fragments of ancient pure gold and very pure gold is very very soft in fact if I were to take this piece of gold I can bend it with my fingers and it bends like paper one of the Nissim of making the mishkon was that even though it was made with zah the CM the utensils did not fall apart and Rashi says you should actually hammer out the gold s Rashi says they would take a corus sh a Goldsmith's Hammon this is a 2000-year old Roman period talmudic period gold Smith's hammer and what you would actually do was you would take the gold and you would put it on a surface and start banging it into the shape that you wanted to and that's what hammering with gold means now there's a special about these hammers for shabas shabas these hammers kazal tell us are not M why since you can also use it as a bottle stopper then it has a use as well on Chavis so this is an actual Cor in order to purify gold they had this K this K was called a core AE was a k to cook the gold and they would cook it and the impurities would come out when the left it says hidden were taking out of the smelting pot of MIT so this is extremely important we also have here another interesting thing that unless you see it you can sit your whole life and learn gamar and never understand what the gamar is telling us the gamar says about the Mana the G of the Mana the cups of the Mana what do they look like so thear says it looked like a CO Alexandria thear says it looks like an alexandrian cup we have right here an actual alexandrian cup and notice it looks like an ice cream cup there's no base to the cup and what makes it very very interesting the andrians were very smart people but they were also big shik they used to like to drink so if you came to a party and someone gave you a cup to drink that you couldn't pull it down you kept filling it up again and again and again so the gimar tells us what did the cops of the Mina look like kimus Alexandria this is a 2 and a half th000 year old Al this is a 2,000 year old alexandrian cup that you're actually looking this was found on a shipwreck and you can actually see some of the white Coral that's still on it when something sits under the sea the white items that grow on it is coral Coral is called in the Mish and says when s boats it says in he sent boats and they brought back rash wrote Coral so this is what something looks like in fact this was also found on a sunen ship this is what's called the m and right over here you could see the white Coral that's still on it everyone who had a house would have had one of these shovels in order to clean out the ashes from their fire but the B would had a gold long handled one and Rashi says aak has three walls one two three so you can see what aaka would have looked like the b m would have had a much longer handle so the K could actually put it into his ribs but this shows you what a m actually looks like so we're going to be showing you a lot of interesting things about the bdash in this section and now I'm going to show you not only do we have here a model of the bdash but just like in Yeshiva right when you came into the lobby of Yeshiva there was a big model so whoever was learning could actually see with this tour you're going to get a detailed description of everything in every single room of the MDES what happened in that specific room and now we're going to move to our animal section of the museum and we have animals that I mentioned both in theara as well as animals that I mentioned inila and right here we have an actual Tes an actual goat and the Goat that's a male is called a taies you can see his actual beard and when y sent as a gift he sent and he sent also which we have here in the museum as well and this is a Taxidermy stuffed goat the eyes are f the inside is plastic the skin is real and the horns are real this right over here is the this is known as the orex so there are a few different types of rims the type that's mentioned here in the PK is referring to the gbuk the orex and you can look at his straight horns this right over here is um I this is a ram and you can see from his horns we make shers right over here this is a preserved Taxidermy actual Ram this is a flying turkey there's a whole discussion why could we eat turkeys today if it's a bird that doesn't have a m we have a whole presentation on the question about why we eat turkeys As you move closer here we have here a leopard this is the nare jumping up to catch a gazelle now most people who learn about a think that a is a deer but thear says that you could make sh from the K you can't make shers from the horns of a deer so rep says that the is the gazelle and if you look at his horns from his horns you could actually make shers this right over here is a hyena and this is one of the sheas of bardus there are two kinds of Bas the larger barus one of the sheas is the hyena and most people make a mistake thinking that a k is a monkey well actually Rashi says a k he uses the old French word for an ape and a kud is a monkey or a keua is a monkey so this over here is an actual monkey with his mouth open right here we have a fullsize lion and this over here is a very very beautiful lion and we're standing next to a beer as well as next to a wolf if you learned the it's also for to sell to a an animal that could be ma well this you're standing right now in the middle of the mishna this is what the m is talking about the the the the B which we just saw that's what you can see and here we have a there of is a fox it's a jackal you can see that here as well also we have an entire room which is dedicated to the animals mentioned in the talud in the gimar and if you look this way here this entire room has every single one of the animals that are mentioned in the gimar and we have a full onehour presentation showing each and every animal what's the or and what is the what is the TVA each and every one of the animals that are mentioned by kazal and we show you how the animals live in the wild and all the things that kazal teach us about these animals we will now walk into our section onim what are theim according to all theas and this room right here is all the that I mentioned according to all theas and we have a full presence on so you learning or whether you learning you can actually see here we went back to every word Rashi wrote in old French Ron wrote in Arabic D andak wrote in Old Spanish and identified every one of these creatures in their languages and this was one of the dreams of many is that finally can learn and see the actual preserved animals these are the actual animals this is the look how he coils his body around and they used to make ovens in the shape of a sitting coiled snake this is what's called this is what's called and now we're going to go into our final section that we're going to show you today which is the animals of daving [Music] manyi and many other asked me to make a section that people when they DAV should understand the animals of what's the py talking about people go to sh they D they don't understand the references on that so in the Next Room we're going to show you each and every one of the animals that are mentioned in daving are cobras and right here we have an actual oberved spitting cobra and on a special film we will show you him in action and we explain each and every one of the references of theim of daving and here we have all of daving and all the kinds of shers that you can use based on what K tell us which shers you can use what's theer sh we show you all the different shers what's a AA what's a be all the different refences what is what is what's when we
