done that.

Yes.
>> Sure.

>> Recently or
>> No, many years ago
>> when the
TV was black and white, not the beer.
>> TV was color.
[clears throat]
>> Those sunglasses definitely was black.
Mandy, what's the story?
>> Posting the link
and
>> Mandy, it takes too long.
>> Okay.
>> Okay. Good evening everyone.
Can actually turn the volume down a
little bit more.
So, everybody knows the story this week.
Yakob was going home with his family
from the
Luven.
>> Yeah. And suddenly he heard that his
brother, his his love brother, his twin
brother was coming towards him. Abame
400 people they were coming came to to
kill him actually.
So, one of the things they said to
I crossed this yard with my my own
stick. That's all I had.
Big family,
a lot of sheep, a lot of slaves.
So,
I think that says Eden
my were diminished. In other words, I
did a lot of good things, but the fact
it did so much with me every it did took
away from the from the bank account.
It's a pushup shop
that was saying
the fact that I'm that's also the fact
that I can realize that everything is
yours.
So that was that's part of the
is adding to that
because nobody can say I'm deserving
whatever gives us. So if Hashem gives us
we have to realize that's it doesn't owe
us anything.
If Hashem would give us what we deserve
would be in big trouble,
a person has to become humbled and be
embarrassed.
The more with him, he became more and
more humble.
He didn't change even the slightest bit
from when he left with he had a and he
says now I realize that everything that
I have that's all I have
he remembered I'm in the same level as I
was then
remember 20 years ago I was poor I had
nothing this
took everything away from him, right? He
was going to kill him. But he knew that
Yak was at Sadik. So he made a deal with
him. He said, "You know what? On you
take everything away from me." So it's
considered he killed me. So when he
arrived to his future father-in-law, he
had
his stick. That's all he had, his
walking stick.
a person reaches the level of
realization that is whatever is given is
only
he becomes becomes humble
that's that's a sign if a person becomes
humbled by theem does with him this is
the right thing
was saying the of
of our existence in this world is to
learn from the
why did he say that why did he mention
the god of my father my grandfather of
to know to realize that that's what it's
all about our to learn from them
asks
he's saying
but also
he's trying to from and he's saying is
my grandfather my father but as the same
he's saying
so if you act like your continuing the
legacy of your
perish
If a person chooses hearts to do to
follow in the footsteps of our
forefathers.
So this helps him be able to live up to
that
other
connection a real connection to them.
That's what the says
I know him. I know
I know I know I know him from from the
beginning said I know him that he's
going to teach his children and his
grandchildren's descendants to live that
way.
We see the fact that they acted in such
a way that it became from that
gave us the and story is not the is not
a story book
whoever things that the is a story
bookish because if you want to write a
story you can write much better stuff
especially today with AI.
This next piece is
one of my favorites forum. I consider
him one of my rebas. He's buried in
whenever I go to if you ever go there.
Then you go a little further down is the
bishop. And a little bit after to the
left there's a there's a there's a cave
m I have to crawl in. Whenever I'm there
I go I he's one of my rebas. I learned a
lot of his forum and um he has a safer
if you want to if you want to feel a
connection to Shabas has a safer called
Shabas. He goes through the we learned
it a few times and we had a group in in
Flabush
and
delicious. So this is a from this week's
para which is very very appropriate very
potent.
So we all know the story of yeah went
out leaders of she went to there's a lot
of different media that one of says that
the the the shikes over there in that
area they wanted to slept her out they
knew that she was a special girl so they
tried to seduce her to come out so they
started dancing around and that's how
she came out to see what's going on
that's how they helped her but say
Benamore his father was
what he
He
grabbed her, raped her and kept her
captivity. Mamesa that we had the last
couple of years in in Gaza
the Lisa. Yeah, this is very very
similar.
So he came. So when when the B Yakov
came back, Shim and Allevi who were
Bitzvah boys, but they were toughies and
they realized what happened. They they
said uh they they made a plan to to get
rid of the not only them but the ga the
>> yeah so they told them that u
you know that we are we are different we
have a different religion and by us
bismila is most important so we can't uh
so they tricked him they said you know
what if you decide to come to follow we
can't we can't become like you because
zimala can't change that but if you come
like us
we'll take you. You give us we'll give
us your daughters. You'll give us your
daughters.
So this this
went and and spoke to his father who was
the uh the mayor of the city or the
president or whatever you want to call
him. And um and they said, "Yeah, let's
let's do that. We'll do business with
them. We'll make guilt."
the kids
the third day of the which everybody
knows that's the most most painful time.
So the two brothers and they went in
they went in with their swords and they
slaughtered the entire town.
So in the dialogue brings a part of the
dialogue said to Jacovu
immediately as soon as he as soon as he
heard about the deal he said okay let's
let's let's go let's do it let's do it
he went and spoke to the whole town he
said we got to do this we'll make a lot
of money
now let's do right now.
We think
ask anybody said you love Hashem. Yeah,
of course I love Hashem.
He'll explain loving Hashem.
He'll ask any

is going to answer.
Oh,
>> good evening my nephew.
>> Evening my
just spoke to him before on the phone.
Sounded very good. Yeah.
If you ask do you love is gonna answer

but if you take a look at the fact
it's not true
look at this look at the picture try to
picture what's going on here
his father was the king he was the
leader of the of the entire city
the god what
>> he wasn't the mayor he was the king

tell you he's the king.
He grew up with all the goodies that Ben

how image you see that he went he went
to uh to approach the situation.
He couldn't wait a second. Right now
right now,

Whatever you tell me, I'm going to do.
I'm ready to do whatever you want. I
need this girl.
Give me ask whatever what do you want

nothing held him back
nothing nothing nothing he couldn't
restrain himself
if you if they were to tell him chop off
your arm chop off your leg then you get
her he would do it
what at the end when they told him they
have to be.
He was
shown him. He was already he was an
adult
in tremendous pain. I've been uh years
ago I there was there was an
organization called Brisav
organization.
They uh they do. Yeah. You were
involved.
>> Yeah.

once they made a deal with me. They
wanted me to come sing at a as a dinner.
So I said, "I'll make a deal with you.
Give me 10 sand and we got a deal." So
they mim. But one of the one of the bris
was a little kid. And the next one in
line was a 16-year-old boy.
Was a sight to see. This guy almost
jumped off the table.
But yeah, so here imagine this guy is in
the boy jumped on the table. They wrote
the
>> Yeah, but he was he was petrified when
he got when he got off the bed. You know
when you go into a doctor's office,

can do it, I can do it, too."
>> Wow.
>> It was you. It was you.
>> Yeah. Yeah. He saw my sunglasses.
[laughter]
Besides all that,
imagine the whole town was laughing.
This guy's letting letting himself chop
himself off because he he wants his
girl.
But he paid no attention. He wanted her.
He was ready to go into fire for that.
He did immediately
because he wanted her.
So now get getting back to us.
If we would talk
such a level,
nothing would hold us back.
We jump over mountains.
You see the that the whole life is only
not interested in anything in the world
but that
we wouldn't pay attention pay attention
like goof not to our physical
our hearts would melt
fire would melt from
Um, who is this?
Forgot his name.
I think it was his name.
His wife, he wanted to go to he wanted
to go to Shiva to learn. He said, "His
wife, I'm going to Shiva." So, his wife
said, "What about the kids? There's no
food. No food on the table." So, so he
said to her
in the field
and give him
he was learning in the in the in the
elevated place of the of the marketplace
in the but his clothing would tell
was he was so engrossed in learning did
that he left his code behind and he was
he was there he was here he was all over
the place
on him the says that on him the
love that you have for the
don't know what's going around
>> you do that then the world
>> huh
>> you do that into the world.
>> Yeah. You wear sunglasses, people think
you're crazy.
He
went nuts.
He didn't know.
But
we
full of baloney.
I bring you the best.
How do we act when it comes to physical
things in this world?
When a person wants to get something in
this world,
how how difficult it is how we labor and
do everything in the world to pull us in
the world.
What L stands for? Every leave always
laid.
How difficult it is and how how
difficult we labor
to bring for our families.
We're constantly the is working all the
whole day overtime
should do it this way should do it that
way.
If a person would act that way when it
comes to
that would be
approximately 250 years ago.
>> Yeah.
[laughter]
When it comes to
its he didn't say that he got to a level
that's so so so strong that nothing
meant anything
>> right nothing was important to him
>> not saying go
>> no it's not what he said
>> well that was 2 years ago by the way
>> okay
>> that was 2 years ago the master
that was almost 2,000 years ago.
He wants he wants to compare himself to
>> he's saying that there was such a dude
where a person gets so draw from
learning.
>> Yeah.
>> They were disconnected from this
breath smell so bad.
So we described already how he came into
big box of ashes. But when it came to
the difficult
he put his whole face into the the
ashes.
They were so connected to the
body meant nothing.
in order to miss the every single day in
in ice in ice river to break the ice in
>> that's why he was able to p such a
shield
>> yeah he was exactly exactly the world
exactly
connected
he was he was basically he was connected
to
Aba Masa.
>> Okay. Could be. You looked it up in
Google. Thank you.
>> The Google
a person who labors.
It's not going to go to waste.
A person who really wants
we labor a whole day. We're chasing the
buck and no matter how much you have,
it's not enough because
if you have a billion, you want two
billion. We're not talking about
millions anymore because millions
says
pettash.
Yeah,
we're always missing something, lacking
something.
Take it into your mind. Take it into
your heart.
[clears throat]
At least as much as you're investing
into your physical.
It's not worth
even one of one point, thousand.
at
least the minimum
at least split it 50/50
a half a day, a half a week, half a
month, half a year
depending on what you work with, what
your what your is
at least 50% of your life should beem.
While you're doing away, don't let
anything distract you.
with a complete heart.
Fire
to connect
through
say dos. There are dos and don'ts.
We know that is part of him. It's not
like us. We are human beings and we have
certainness
is part himself. So David says we should
be connected to him
[snorts]
and a person
he connects his
essence of his life
because when a person speaks
said when a person you put your hand in
front of your mouth while you're
speaking you'll feel the wind coming out
of you
blew into
blew into him. So when we speak the
is part of the the part of the
when we connect to him we long onto him
from the tremendous distance that we
have in this world. We're in such
this is called it's why is it called?
Because the isum he's hidden in this
world. He hid himself. The is all over
the place. We don't see him. If we would
see him, we would have a different life.
But he put us here in this darkness. And
in this darkness, he wants us to serve
him.
When created the world
that was why he created this world
he knew that we're going to be distant
away yet he wants us to be connected.
There's nothing in this entire only
wants wants to have
the fact that we connect to him through
that's he has
so now he goes back to our so working in
the
So while we're doing a
physical
whatever it may be some people work with
the brain. Some people work with
physical labor but
we shouldn't disconnect for a moment our
love and our connection that we have
today
to be cautious and heed to everything
that he warned us about. In other words,
to to to deal not to do anybody, not to
not to hurt anybody.
See, everything in the world is from
him.
There's nothing.
There's nothing in this in any other
worlds
anything but his co his light and his
shea and his
nothing else. There's only
so I heard I heard a interesting story
today from uh what's his name? Rabbi
Gold. Rabbi huh?
No, he's a
>> he's his nephew of
the first cous.
He told a story that the guy was driving
onish
from Tel Aviv. I don't know which
direction say which direction but he was
driving on a motorcycle and suddenly
this motorcycle started slowing down
slowing down slowing down and and
stopped. It's pitch night pitch dark and
there's nobody there.
Nobody, no cars, no good, nothing mamish
middle of the night.
So suddenly he remembered there's a
from the brisket of he say mad.
So he started saying mad once, twice,
five times, 10 times, 20 times till mish
became mad and suddenly he sees a truck
coming his direction. this huge tractor
trailer and the guy pulls over on the
side. He sees him stuck and on the
entire side of the truck.
The guy picked him up and he said and he
told him that 20 years before 20 years
earlier he had in this exact place
he had a a motorcycle accident. his his
motorcycle broke down completely and uh
somebody picked him up and he was
waiting for the day when he'll be able
to do back of in that place
in every place where we stand
everything that we See and everything
that we do, everything that happens in
our life is the
through that when a person is conscious
of it, he gets the love and the fear of
the
we should plant into our hearts
love that we should have for him and
fear. The fear doesn't mean to to be
scared of he's going to punish us. Fear
is of the greatness of Hashem.
So if you guys ever want to get ever
