Oh, see we're waiting for you. So, today I had a special a special mitzvah. Besides going to the rabbit in my as usual was a very big crowd. On the way back, I stopped at Lennox Hill Hospital by an old friend of mine. Unfortunately, he's in the hospital for these are and he reminded me many years ago he didn't have children for six years and when the reb was in the beginning when he came to America he was living by Herman that's Schlomi's uncle Schlam's uncle and he came there with his wife he came to the Reb and he said I don't have we don't have children for six years gave him the quiddle and the reb said you're married six years I'm married much longer than you also don't have children and he threw away the quiddle they were shocked out of their heads they walked out totally and he says to his wife on the way out he says and we have to make a decision either we we get divorced or we continue life whatever it's going to be it's going to be as they're talking to one another calls him back said manif hesitant to go back. Didn't know what to do. >> He didn't know she should go back, shouldn't go back. His wife says, "I'm not going back." So he said to his wife, "I'm going back. The Reb is calling me. I'm I'm going back." So the Reb said to Miman, "Qu." They started looking for it. Finally, they found it. And the Reb says to him, "It's from you'll hang around over here. You're going to have Yeshua eventually." And he says, "The Reb said to him, I never stayed for anyone, anybody that did something for me, I did back for them." And this young man came every single month of Shabas for uh from LA Mala and he came all the time middle of the week and then every every opportunity he came to the Reb. Finally, one time the reb was in my house. He wasn't feeling well. So, we took him away from the shul because there was too many people. And for like 10 days, he was in my house. We lived on 47th Street, 8th Avenue, Borda Park. And nobody was able to go into the Reb because he wasn't feeling well. We didn't let anybody in. And everybody knew me. He came every single night and he said, "I'm I don't want to go into the Reb. I just want to know how the Reb is feeling. If he's feeling better, how he's doing." And one night was in a very good mood. And I said to him, I'm not gonna say his name. I said to him, now is the time. Kiman, come in. And he said, "No, I'm not going in. I didn't come to go to I didn't come to go to the I came in to see how the Reb is doing." I said, "I'm begging you. Please come in the Reb now." Came into the Reb with his wife. And uh and I said, "Reb so the Reb said he's not going to take a girl." So he he said so he said he said to the so wife says no but nine months later they had a baby girl only child and bash when this happened I told I I said the le should promise him and I'm going to sing at the wedding and sure enough when this kid got married he called me he said hello you remember you promised me you're coming to sing at the wedding and I went and I sang at the wedding. >> Yeah. So the talk there's to speak of this that happened by because it brings down. >> Yeah. His wife said no. >> Okay. I got it. >> Yeah. I'd like to know the finish line >> finish line had a baby and he has he has he has has eight grandchildren all >> four of them are married already his his son-in-law was there and his one of his was there amazing I remember >> yeah yeah >> such a nonalone >> there's another incredible story that we'll get to a little little bit later because this week's para talks about talks about all kinds of animals that you're allowed to eat, not allowed to eat. So, I reminded I was reminded of a beautiful story that I heard from Maya Silverberg many years ago. We'll have time we'll share it. This week's parish says, "You are my children. Every single every that has a he loves every So you're wearing the entire day. Why? If a person loves wearing don't make different groups if that's going to happen. So, and you're not you're not by the fact that you love them. After knows that he is the child, hem loves each and every individual more than any father loves the child. Don't separate from Hashem no matter what he does to you because everything that Hashem does is for the benefit for our benefit. If you don't understand it, just like a child doesn't understand sometimes what his father does. They agree whatever the father does the famous famous Mosul that a father is working is walking in the uh in the in the mid with all sides with his little child. But the child is holding the father's hand. So he has no fear because it's hunt. So you also you should know that although you don't understand it but the does the best for us as long as you're behaving like a a royal child behaving like a child of the that's called but you're not you're not acting up to your part you're not acting up No, no, no. Whether you behave like you don't behave like he writes in every instant in the is always like a like except for this case no matter what is considered a child of Disha even if he doesn't do exactly like what commands us to do was was thousands of Eden the biggest can do. If you forget that you are royal child, if forgets this fact that he's a a child of the biggest. So we'll do a little we'll get back to there's a whole bunch of beautiful stuff this week, every week. So who's this? That's the very special one, specific one. We're hoping, awaiting, longing for him to come, the king of Mashiach. Why is it called? For several reasons. like says in many that he's he comes as a simple person. Why is he because of our sins? Because of our sins, we're still in goas. He longs for us. Mashiach is sitting waiting like a famous is sitting in Shmayim and waiting for the day. is in pain and crying. When can he come to take us out? But when he met Mashiach, when he went up to Shay and he met Mushia and he asked him, when are you coming? He said came back the next day and said, "You said yesterday," he said, "Hay, you're lying." He said, "No, you didn't understand what I said." I said, "Hay, if you're going to listen to Hashem's, then let's be ham." And he asked he asked how doing cameo. They're sitting here waiting for Msiah to come. When Mashiach heard that Claus is sitting here waiting for him and hoping every day that he should come, he he burst out in a tremendous cry. He's the special one. The one that that only one. Yeah. The special one. Like says he will just he will he will judge each and everyone with justification. He's not going to he's not going to judge them. I'm not going to judge him with with his eyes, but at he will smell each and every person to see what level he's on. the special in that that special which is that Mashiach will be born and bred in the one community. One community. Listen to these words. One community or one congregation will do. >> Let's do it. >> Not such a big community. It's easy. >> Okay. So, let's work on it all together. Now, is coming up. This is Sundays. Let's start a new uh Yankee >> initiative. >> Yeah, new initiative. >> Who will pass from this world? Who will be born? Heard pink. Who will become pregnant this year?

Still see a very interesting piece here. He wants to comed bring us all home. will be the holy city of everyone should strengthen themselves to fulfill ffill the desire of because with our deeds because of your our brother, the famous. It's very interesting. His name was and he signs his name at the end of this piece. >> Only one >> a few places. >> So he says >> doesn't say you say whatever you want. >> That's one of the names of Mashiach. >> Yeah. Yeah. My great-grandson whose bris was last Friday was name. >> Okay. But he he was born on that's why they called him. >> Yeah. Um >> yeah, please want a certain piece. >> No. Okay, let's >> story. >> You want to have a story? Okay, you're in the story mood. >> Not going through. >> Yeah, I will. So there's a I heard the story from the reason the reason I'm I'm repeating the story this week because this week the Torah speaks about talks about so the story is as follows that the once came to a town and of course everyone came to get his braher a couple came into him and said, "We have four boys." Three of the boys are fabulous kids. They have beautiful homes. They got married. Everything is beautiful. Our fourth child until the mitzvah, he was doing great. He was learning well. He's very positive. Suddenly after the mitzvah, the cup is going stopped. by talking to the wall. Sometimes you learn you're talking to someone and the person's not here. There's a blockage. They don't understand what happened. So thinks he puts on his head for a couple of minutes. picks up and said and he says if you eat food which is not kosher if I stop the cup not only in but in everything you become stupid so they look at each other and they say to the it's impossible I mean it's it wasn't like today the pizza shops on 13th Avenue >> there was there was what the mama cooked, that's what you ate. There was no other food. They all ate the same food. Doesn't make any sense. So picks up his head again. He says, "Period." They go out totally confused. They don't know what to think. They don't know what to say. They come home and they start asking this boy, "Did you ever eat anywhere? Did you ever eat other than mommy's food?" No. never finally he remembers that right after his mitzvah he was right there they lived in a little so to to travel from one to the other he had a bicycle he was traveling from he went to one of his friends in the other in the other village and on the way somebody stopped him and said he said yes I'm mitzvah says we immediately saint to firmian. Okay. So I went to Ferminion. The miser was as follows. This was a second marriage. And uh they needed a tenth for the minion. So he went in for the minion. So they say his father asked him did you eat anything there? Said yeah. You can imagine second marriage also. Uh little little piece of meat. >> Meat from a meat board. >> A meat board. Yeah. Meatboard. And it was bored. They ate meat. So they started researching. They wanted to know who the sh is. So they went to that village and they asked who the sh this guy. They went to and they said, "You remember this in this wedding years ago?" He said, "Oh, do me a favor. Leave me alone. I don't want to talk about this wedding. I had enough. What happened? So, this is this is printed in the back of the back of the bala wrote a letter to the Rabun that the name was not written correctly. You should never know from these things, but in a you have to write every nickname that the person was ever called. and one of the names is not written correct and they get dispel as long as this young man is not going to give a get nobody should give and nobody should for the and he ate from that And this boy ate from this food and the cup is going for stopped. So they went back to they found a problem and they asked him so what do we do now? So said that we have a teach us that a person who learns with difficulty it opens up his so they sent him know he's from those days he's talking about a few hundred years ago yeah they sent him and the he finished us good story >> the moral The story is >> you don't rely on because it has some kind of symbol from Chicago, from uh from the San Francisco, you're going to eat it because it has a symbol symbol. Yeah. Okay. So, it's the preadic, one of my favorites for him. It brings this because says even though I walk in the valley of death, I'm not scared of any evil because you're with me. This week's pars you, Hashem, you are righteous upon him and we we're embarrassed with our actions. We're dealing with this right now. We're dealm is going to save us all after. So although they sinned with the eagle, Hashem still gave them and he didn't hold back from them. When it was the Hashem still still gave them abundance, the medish comes to teach us aid who believes in Hashem. And he sees even if he does something wrong is with him. Even in the moment says that when the breaks into a house he says please help me guide and he says please help me. You give us charity even when we're not deserving. When a person realizes that Hashem is giving me old, I don't deserve anything. So he's embarrassed. My God is embarrassed to face you because I know that you're doing with me. I don't deserve it. When a person says that when he realizes and he realiz he he he observes the fact that Hashem is good to him even when he's not good helps him in every situation a person who doesn't have in other words he doesn't realize that even by even right after we did such a withel And Hashem is still good to us even doesn't forget. I mean, he realizes that Hashem is good to us and he's charitable to us even though we're not deserving. Even when we sin, Hashem is with us. He's good to us in any case him from that alone he's embarrassed. So a person's embarrassed. He comes to Davin afterwards. He knows he did a and Hashem just gave him a good deal. They said I'm not deserving of it but still but yet you're good to me. So when you stand in front of the feel embarrassed helps him even walking in the darkness even I'm doing I'm very very embarrassed by the fact that is so good to me although not deserving. I'm embarrassed to raise my face and to face you. We come into no matter how bad things were during the week. Kim Chabis telephones. Those of us who come, some of us come on time, some of us forget the time, but whatever it is, we come to so famous the famous he brings to some brings a few places says My my forefathers made helped them. He said that Hashem who has been my guide from the beginning. In other words, that is from Disha. That's what he's saying here. He knew that everything that he had is from Disha. No smoking. Thank you. Is my shepherd and therefore I'm not lacking anything. He realizes that is with him. You're kind to me. was made by says this is who I'm looking at a person who is poor and humble. What is he poor? Poor means he realizes that everything he has is not his doing charity with me because I'm not deserving of anything that it's got he's been through the entire week and he realized that Hashem look at the Shabbas table all the beautiful food all the beautiful so therefore he becomes a mole You're the one that gives us charity. We're embarrassed. Like we know that a poor person that comes to your door and he realizes that he has nothing to do with you. You're coming, he's coming to ask for he's embarrassed. It's called embarrassed bread. But when a person is good and he does good things or somebody that you did him did a favor to this guy whenever it was and now you come ask him for a favor. So of course he's going to do you a favor and you're not you don't feel embarrassed like you say a person he that he did wrong abandons his bad ways that's why Oh, the next piece is something that I wanted I wanted to share with everyone. She wakes up at night in the darkness and she gives food to her family. Even when we're in darkness, golas is considered dark. So evening go have a to bring down good they do and we think that they're just looking at chamis but they're way up there. tell you a little short story that I had once with on Purim Purim cotton. I was in shim with him with Alisman and uh he had two bottles of banana liquor the Reb not him and he was on a different planet mish wasn't there he said a few wild things one of the things that he said we know that we know that by shabas by kesser is the biggest zeu inim That's why he we don't even know why we screaming but that's the so he said that every shabas when I go up to by I see the reb is there before me so I said to him hey I said to him how's it possible miss of Tuesday so he said yo yo that is there a whole week so we think that the save shak is they go they go up to a different hemisphere to bring down. So even now in the darkness in the darkness of the goss but brings down the gonna listen to Hashem's words. I will bring down rain. Yeah. What is he saying there? I will give. How? What mean you're going to give? Hashem will give. will give. So come through the he says I will give rain. I will give I I am giving to you. Why? Because the sadic has the coyak to give.
