CHAZARAH - Menachos Daf 29 | "Nothing but the Daf" with R' Eli Stefansky

[music] Good morning. [laughter] The height of the seven lines down from the top is like from the only times don't get used to this especially in a 4 foot three 72 cm or boy side this is it this this is the height of the minor see this That's what Rab says. Yesterday we learned it's double. Soi asked Rab a bomb question. Here we go. Something like this. The had a stone and the stone had three steps. The would stand on it. How in the world are you telling me it's this? Whoa. It's basically this height and you need three steps. One, two, three. What's the He's going to have to bend down. If it's six feet tall, say I get it. You want to be on top of it. But three feet. Oh my. That's You're the the famous asking me such questions. I was talking about from here from where the branches of the ner start it's ninth [ __ ] from that point but it's nine [ __ ] below that it's a total of 18 [ __ ] like we discussed yesterday interesting he was upset at it like he should have understood I guess I don't know exactly why but that's how it is says in the says oh where do I get to no says in the the flowers even the tweezers that that you use the to to to take out the wicks from the all pure gold who it is. What does that mean? So closed down all the the the gold stores by him purifying the gold to such a level that all other gold was worthless. Basically not worthless but he put everybody out of business. Even says by uh by right that when they brought the ka from the bdash everybody noticed the difference in how beautiful the bdash ka were compared to it was a different color. 10. Yesterday we said is 57 kilo 125 pounds of gold which is about $9 million times a,000 9 billion worth of gold. would bring hold on and this is just for one time 10 time 10 in order to purify the gold they would start off with a thousand and end up with one they would purify it and purify it and purify it just put it into the oven melt it down melt it down so after he still had a lot of gold for all his vessels they're all made out of All the vessels all made as the purest of the pure silver wasn't considered was nothing in his days. You see he had he had a lot of gold says we said he he all the good stuff was gone. He used it up in the mdash. In order to get to one you have to put it into the oven a thousand times. How does that make sense? There in one in 125 pounds of gold there's 288,000 diner kurikini. It's a tiny tiny amount. It's a fraction of a fraction. 288,000. There was one of those one 288,000th of a a gold coin and they wanted to make the minora exactly a kikar. So what did they do? They had to put into the oven 80 times to get rid of 1288,000th of a keer. So how are you telling me that if you put into the oven a thousand times which is only you know 12 times more whatever it is you're going to you're going to come down 999 kar you can't even get this tiny amount the size of a here you can't get down after 80 times in an oven. So, how's a thousand times an oven going to take down um 5,700 kilo or whatever? You do the math in pounds. >> Says, you know why? Because once you pur purify to the purest of the pure, there's nowhere to go from there. It's already pure. How? You can't go. You put in the oven another 20 times, it isn't going anywhere. Yes. Okay. So, after 80 times, I'll take that. He already purified it to the purest of the pure of the purest. one kiker out of a thousand once you reach that level let's he calls it 24 carat whatever you want to call it let's call it 24 karat in 20 you you cannot purify 24 carat or more than 24 carat whatever that is you know I'm just using that number we have so basically what the is going to do is what does the word mean to can mean that it's literally that if a dead person touches it it's tar or that it it it actually accepts to or it can mean that it came from a a pure place meaning it came straight from those are the two options say it came down from going to say that so also has the same exact so you tell me the table that they put upon him it also came down from means that it could accept tumo So by also didn't come down from it just means is a vessel that can accept it makes a lot of sense like says when the refers to that is pure meaning that it could become why it's also so it's interesting the is made out of what when you look at a what is ah >> it's it looks like gold >> so it's goldplated So anything that's goldplated is that gold or is that wood? If you have wood and you plate it with gold, how do we look at it? Does it mean it's not it's but over here the calls and therefore it has wood. What's wood? If it's a piece of wood that's meant to stay right here, like this table right here, it's a piece of wood that's not meant to be moved since we put it into this room seven years ago. Hasn't moved. Doesn't move. What? It's not. So that's why the Torah says you should know the is even though it's not supposed to. It is. Oh, but no, no, no. And here it tells you tells you why. the the famous they used to lift up the the and show all those that came from a distance look how much loves you what's the what what's the love there's a big nace that happened with him when they removed the bread a week later after it was made on chabas says it had the same heat like when they put it in like the day was removed. Here we go. They had a stand in the right. They didn't the smoke that came out to show that it was still still hot. >> [sighs] >> So we must say by the means that it's can't mean that just like by the means by also means it's by the I need to tell you because I thought it's a piece of wood. I thought it's there stationary. No, it's but why would I think that a man that's 6 feet tall made out of metal made out of gold. It's not why not any metal. Therefore, was brought down from these three things came down from the came down in a form of fire. >> I don't know if this is going to do it. Where was it? It It disappeared again. Oh, here. This one. saw them and he copied it. Rashi on the spot. If you look it up right here on this says that the med says that made what happened was that tried >> but he couldn't he couldn't he showed it to him as we're going to see Gabriel came show but at the end of the day to make the was a there was a there was a fiery minra and took the min and he started doing it at the end of the day according to the medish it didn't work out so well the when the when the when the says so came down and and he copied it off the fiery says no said these are the these are the the measurements they should do it as is. So he showed it to him. He showed him a picture of it. He had some sort of like like um belt >> a belt or like you know like >> apron something like that that the workers were have. He came down as a like like a person that works in this and he showed him this how you do it. There's three things that had a hard time understanding and doing until showed him with his finger like like so he had a hard time figuring out the show had a hard time figuring out what are the like like this chart over here. He pointed this is it. this this he didn't know exactly where whatever the the is brings also we know the show you have to have both parachutes even if one letter is missing from the it's no good what's the mean that should be Okay, missing a letter. It says to be the famous saying people say, "Oh, is what's so according to Rashi is this area right over here. It's the bottom right of the the yudis asks if the bottom right of the yud is missing, what's the it's like okay, the top left of alf. What's the difference the bottom right of a yud? So therefore the Rabenam says you have to write a Yud like this and there's a little bottom part and that that's the we and our fill in if you look we have the we of so our is if it's missing it's missing it comes to tell you another check this out here's this is a letter that doesn't have parchment on all four sides. The lament is touching the kof. And that's what it's saying over here. Meaning that even if two letters are touching each other, not that it's missing a letter and not that it's missing part of a letter, if it's missing, it's possible. Even if it's perfect, the letters are perfect, but they're touching each other as so possible. If the inside of the hay was punctured, it's kosher. We're going to see what that means. And it's right leg is possible. Let me explain to you. I learned this from you, not as so. This is the and we have a yud there for later. If the inside foot, the one that's not attached, the detached foot has a hole in it. Let's say it was actually there before he even wrote. He just rode into the maybe in those days they didn't have such beautiful parchment like we have today. Over here you can see that's a hey. It doesn't matter how big that little guy is. It's a hey. We see that there's a little dot over there. It's not a dollar. It's not a r. But if the other side was punctured like this. So this is no good. Why is this no good? Because look it's shorter than the yud on the left. Now, Yoshi didn't want to put the Yud on the other side because that would be K. So, you put it over there, but you could still see that the Yud is longer and this would be possible if it has the the letter possible. If not, it's possible. says he had the same situation that the the the the right part like over here in the in the screen the right leg had a puncture on top exactly what we just said in this case it would be ple if not it's kosher Ramy Barry. Interesting. His name was Ramy, the son of dates. Dam and he's the father-in-law of Ramy Bar, the son of a palm tree. Now, problem number one is that we know that says that a son-in-law and a father-in-law should not have the same name. That's why my father's name Well, that's different. But I know somebody my my uncle he changed his name from Aram to Yakim famous and Miyakim Stfansky my uncle because of a son-in-law because of you're not supposed to have the same name. So but over here it seems like they have the same name Ramy and Ramy though one has a in it and one doesn't [clears throat] some say that it's actually the same person that his name it's dates and and and and uh and a palm tree. It's the same person yet that's why they look in the side they take it out. Okay. The who that he is that he is. He's also known as a palm tree not only as dates. If carried the VV, he had a situation where the bottom of the VV it was missing the word with a puncture comes the famous that if you don't know how to, if it's long enough or not, bring a child that's not too smart in reading, not too good and not too dumb. If he reads it properly like a V, then it's good. If he reads it not like a V, then obviously it says It's like with two yuds, two yuds would spell. This is one of my favorite gumaras. Everybody's people love this when he found he's putting the like over here. This hay has a a tag on top or these tag really it should be like this. These are we're going to see soon gates is is the three things why are you so busy with these tag say the is ready give it already they're waiting for the they need the why do you have to add why do you have to it's taking time here let's go this one human being he's in in the future generations his name is on every single one of these many many it's very important it's all part of the he tells him do me a favor I want to see him in the future turn around turn around he turned around and he found himself bof in the future So he placed himself in the eighth row in he went to the sat in the eighth row. Unbelievable. Wasn't comprehending what's going on over there. Different. They say different things. The whole everything in the what does it mean exactly? It bothered him a lot. It weakened him. Got somewhere. He was talking. How do you know this? It's Yeah, he's actually learning my It's me. He's learning from me. The fact I don't understand it was like a different style, you know. No, it's like Rabenu got it in in the whole came to him. It wasn't like he was trying to figure things out and go over he didn't have it was a different style whatever that means. So he goes back goes to that's why I always say throughout that was on such a level that was asking the why did you give the through me give it through now to me is in English shut up it's a >> it's a very very strong lion it's it's a very strong lionike Be quiet. This is how it came to my In other words, you will not comprehend this. This is this is beyond human comprehension. You showed me his greatness in let me see what he what what is what's you want to go? Let's go back. Let's go to the future. Turn around. He went back. story. We know that when he when he died, they they they scraped his his his skin with hot metal combs and they so but in addition to that, I don't know if everybody knows this, they took his meat and they sold it in the marketplace to be to put him down. This is the this is the war that somebody so great gets the quiet. This is not something you will understand. There's three three seven letters that need that need to get three zans gates. This one right over here. shot in his gates. I I had a dumb question and I didn't like see anybody talk about it but it's like if these are the letters that get the the tagen so what took the rebum so long so put it on every shin you put it in the computer every shin gets it if it was like this patient get it this v and even that I mean the reb could do it in a millisecond too but it's like what do you but it's it's a given every shin gets it every gets it every test gets it he so he put he put in the like we have to understand the depth of this of I saw these very these from that were very they put a little guy on top of the a little uh tag on the car. Interesting. I heard I didn't see this myself yet but that in Morocco thera are like rashy the is like that. I wonder what the the have the and the and the little leg of the h is hanging in the air. They put a little guy, a little crown on top of the lives in the in our world. And why are they hanging the I once made the very big mistake of saying that this is the the author of this is NS's grandchild, not NSI. See, back in the day when I started, I got an email. I'm at you. [laughter] What's this? You should always have faith in Hashem forever. if you put your trust in hem not when when things are going well everything's oh yeah I trust I got all this but even when there's a even when there's a even when everything is it looks like everything's upside down yeah full then will be your cover your protector in this world and the world to come this is this is what I wanted to It makes a lot more sense to say should say it's the rack forever. What's in the ine? What's in the famous of these are the two worlds that created one he created with a hey and one with a yud says rashi over here beautiful rashi this I'm I'm giving you a tip I'm not going to I'm not going to explain rashi to those my my good friends I'll tell after divided his And he put into each letter three drops. And it says also inside if you want to know how to create worlds. I don't know which one got what was created with the next one. says before we can learn the created this world with meaning. Why was it created with a is like a it's like three walls. If you want to leave the religion, you don't want to believe, go ahead. I mean, not go ahead. You have the choice. You're not forced in here my time. And why is the hay hanging? The chuva because if you want to do chuva even the worst of the worst even could have done chuva. Everybody could do chuva from the worst ais. So that's why there's a little opening in the top of why does he why do you need an opening at the top? You left from the bottom, come back in from the bottom says because it won't work so well for him. If you're you're late treat what's somebody who puts down important things you put down making funing things. If you but if you if you with humility you have humility will show favor to you listen to this if you go you want to you want to do Hashem will help you I thought I came up with told me that it says that if you come to be helps you if you want to be mama then he's not going to help you, but he's going to open the door. It's very different. You want to do bad, Hashem will give you the opportunity, open the door for you. He's not going to help you. Over here, when you want to do, he sticks his hand out and he grabs you. Check this out. Why does he have a little crown? If he does, it says on the side, I'll put a crown on him. If you do crown you and why is the the world to come created with the very few why is the bottom of the y bent in like this says because they go with their heads down they're embarrassed says rashy unbelievable he looks and he sees another sadic and he says, "Wow, I'm a sad but look at him. Look how much he accomplished. Unbelievable. Have a wonderful day. >> Merit the of spreading Torah throughout the world. Sponsor a shir today. mdysponsor.com or sponsor at mdy.com.
