Maharal Shiur on Parshas Chayei Sarah by Rabbi Simcha Bunim Berger at Scheiner's Shul

okay good evening this week's appropriately since the is learning we can and do something that includes this week's par also the tells us a fascinating story he took it upon him himself to measure Graves the in thear was this way people who were tahar who were pure were able to steer clear from any from any Tuma this way when he made a demarcation he was able to be right a a where there's a Cav this way nobody would become t he went to he came to the thear says he found elzar standing there we spoke about this in Zar abah he saw and S and she was laying he was laying in her in her arms and she's looking in his head this we'll have to talk about a different different time today's Zer is going to discuss excuse me my is going to discuss marish marish and why this was the place that the and the were buried what is so special about what's going on in this place he left that cave he came to the area of where odishan was Yas abas came out and said you looked at Theus at the form of my of of myuk of my presence meaning I let you see but to see which is you cannot look at him as big as you thinku is and as much as we know that's called the that's it's not just the the form so said back to the Bas I need to measure I have to measure the way it is on the outside is the way it is on the inside you don't have to go inside you can measure from the outside you'll know exactly what's on the inside says I looked at his two heels at the heels I couldn't see I was not allowed to Hashem didn't let me instead I looked at his heels they were like two balls of son the heel is the lowest part of the body it's where the dead meat is the heel of a person the cup is the highest part of a person that's the place where a person SE is that's where a person is that's why it's the the bottom is the most Dead part of a person where the has a by the below the is lower than that the lowest part of is or that's how far that's how removed and Howes was and he couldn't therefore that's just an idea H says then be every person if you want to compare a human being to s if s is a human being then the all people are like monkeys the S and and S is like a like a monkey compared to what's this measuring you have it in front of you the concept of measuring is not just physically where they are it's the capacity of the human being capacity human means to say what the person accomplished in his lifetime call man a person is alive he's called a he's going and you can never tou up and you can never measure mention I'm still going I'm still moving I'm still living I'm still either going up or you're still going down but once a person has finished his job in the ground we put him into the ground now is it what did he do what didn't he do what could he have done what didn't he end up doing now let's measure him now we measure him I once heard a my uncle just passed away he was by he was a person says if you run after the runs away from you the a person runs away from is the how do you find out so I heard from when he came to visit when he came to in in he said look at what happens at a person's Leva a person's L can he can't run anymore you have some people they were very popular and very wealthy and this and by the there's nobody there it was a Friday it was a this it was a that who came it was empty and sometimes you have a l you have hundreds of people there there he can't run away then when now you'll see where is the and who's the not look at what what happens at a person's change life and he can't run away anymore you can get an indication of what the person was like he was measuring the means what did the accomplish measuring and measuring the means to say let's look let's learn in the First Column you see I underlined it came to the was created in the image of hem looking at would looking at the I'll explain everything in the world was created by hem when you look at the mountains you look at the oceans aren't they created by their 100% Everything Is Right Everything Everything is Everything is but nothing in the Bri does it say in English that means to say what breathed into his nostrils like CPR the breath of life and the Man became when you blow you blow from inside yourself if was putting a life into the human being put the is why it's called the is theim of the the name is because Aima which means to say that body which had the Nisha put into it had it not eaten from the would have lived forever it wasn't a G Body the way you and I know gmas because if it's a type of body that n is connect with didn't need any clothing it was totally fused to that Nish do you want to know the difference right of a body that has a Nish that doesn't have a Nish if you've ever seen a person lenu after he passed away if you ever seen a corpse the face has a dead look to it the glance and the shine that there is of a a person the shine the glow like a coal that glows the coal that glows so there's a shine to it when a person's alive and the N is there so the Nish on the point of the face you could see the face I feel SCH I feel crank even if he's sick if he's sleeping but there's a aama there when a person's nter a minute later the face is blank that's it the glow is gone the the D the glow in the coal is not there the more the more the glow the gar says the says whenu came down from the mountain they were scared to look at him why his face was shining when when he came to had to put on a m had to put on M they were they were P scared to talk to him because his was shining through his body to such an extent that theot is that the body became illuminated or Al or an or H skin iron and was and he realized he had to cover up his body because it was what was before what was before the what became after the take a light bulb you see the light bulb is on him shut off the light so you see the bulb that's the or with an turn the light bulb on you don't see the bulb you just see the light that comes out of it now think about this was like even after the sin then in the ground when he's in the ground even that is no you know why because he was created by nobody else was ever created like that everybody else comes from a Hebrew of a man and a woman and they create the Goof and then and puts into the not by made the Goof made the Goof and made the he made both of them together that was of created himself says the when you're looking at you're looking at what himself put into him that's almost like looking at the it's the closest thing to the the med says that when was first created the were bringing they wanted to bring himon and say so St Med the poison that the that they said as right right where do you think they get that T from because who was he was so much look already made a mistake says the mar you was a d says One D like a monkey to a person the difference Darwin thinks that the monkeys and the people have a like a monkey to a person that was to listen to him listen this part is underlined no other person has ever been created with the way was that's like looking at the of that was created by the that we're on is kav looking at the handiwork of hasem that's already like you're starting to look at the just like you can't look at AEM because you have no no connection no [Music] partnership which was created that he brought back the to the world was 248 the number of bones that make up a human body got a was with a had no Oro when he was created the Oro only came afterwards was created without an all of this to be to be covered over to have a to have something on top of a person whether it's GM orus all of that is a part of the goof successful in removing that and therefore went from to and he but it was only still one removed it wasn't let the that's why the gar says with the the form but says it wasn't so good that you looked at that's still only the the form but you can't so what does he want pay attention [Music] I the idea of measuring is I want to I want to understand I would like to be able to TI up to ascertain to decide to see what the Madre of a person is thear and the answer was what does that mean the outside is like the inside you know what that means says the morale that this is cut off over there it's cut off by I apologize I'm reading it to [Music] you each when it says the outside was like the inside means they reached their full potential like you said last year they did their job the outside is like the inside means to say a accomplish what had to accomplish accomplished what he had to accomplish and so you know what they did they were the they were there says the shine of was already like the shine ofish the of the thatu looked like from before the is when he gaed dream after being in shame a for 14 years by he never went to sleep for 14 years at after he came run after all the years of what he went through and then alas came and took everything away from him so how did he look and then he went to sleep he had to put some Stones around him and the stones fused together and they became like one stone right and then he dreamed and there was a ladder St the zashi they were looking down they saw face they went up and then they saw face do Ela mench the face here is the face there that means that all of theas and all of the ye that are going to be born from this face just like is every in the world every Adam none of us would be here if we're not somewhere potentially in Adam the gra kite ofam is that it's one man that was the potential of all of human ity but that also included Humanity of people that could look like monkeys too Humanity of negative people Yu is the ofra means the shank kite he's already the nice he's already the which is the refined marish the malim are seeing the face ofish inelt and they're seeing it over here what they're seeing is how he took the and he put a little which is one of the names of a and was the so he went from to to the person who and now I became the head when he takes away asa's head and his we learn about that that what thought of by meaning to say he now decides are going to go up he decides which are going to go down because all of the of the is and M what were they doing here the office so I'll share with you we spoke by the past will go over time for 2 three minutes Ines whenu came to this place how did he get here so the gor so the Zares says that when when he ran to get the bucker the bucker ran into and he came in and he went into the dark place and he saw that there was a light his heart was there okay because when it says the bucker ran there when came to bury Sor the he went inside he saw what he saw when he went in the first side time he saw a light is G two graves became revealed saw and smiled this is where I have to be buried when he brought there they got up and they didn't want to be buried there anymore means embarrassment we are embarrassed because of the mistake that we made now now you have such and S we have embarrassment because of that now you're coming to live over here you're going to lay down over here we're even more embarrassed said you're coming we're out I'm ready to you're never going to you should you should no longer be embarrassed if you look in the it says you can every time next he put all thean back in inside and then went in but s wasn't he wasn't really to because she ate so therefore he DB he said be took and put in then he put in after he put he buried and then he buried sorrow thees says you think I've Buried one person he buried three people Tien themen them in R writes that the D is through the P that's the d to g when and were first created they were living in ganen but after they sinned they were kicked out right why was Sora buried here the P the teret is because s and a and the and the lived such a good life that if not for Adam they would have made it into Gan they they stopped them from getting in so inine and they were thrown out they were on the outside of right says the G says the that up until wanted to give G the world wasn't interested who is the first person who was to the who was buried for the purpose to wake up and get theu up until up until s everybody was who was buried wasn't getting we say in that's it you're finished go to the guy around go in the they didn't throw her away they put her away sorus put away so she should get up for when and were first put into the ground in they were inside and they went outside they were a veal like they were they were they were put away they were excuse me they they were thrown away Sor was put away Sora was put away for the future is not just Mass burial for Sor and got buried s whoever buried them the first time they weren't being buried to be put away for the next world in the ground he's putting her in she's going to be it's the first time in the history of the world that somebody is being put into the ground be with the type of which was they didn't have that but they got it now now they got [Music] it only who are the the two are able to beate the and the in the of s is when he's it's not over yet it's just the beginning it's going to be a process it'll be fall what has to disintegrate will disintegrate what doesn't have to want and then will come which that's going to be who was buried that way the was able to do it not only did he do it for S he did it also he did it also for that's the that they got up and were re buried again that's what so the were they were that's why and who were in G are buried here and and S and and and and Le who are the of so this is a burial of mention these are the this is where they were buried okay yeah
