Good morning.
Will speak about we'll speak about
want to dedicate this year for that of
him and his family should see open and
revealed.
So we wish each other why do we wish
specifically this good wish of
the Greeks wanted to nullify three mits
that if they would succeed they would
uproot the entire yiddish and that is
shab
andesh if there's noes you're eating and
pes you're not fasting and you're
if there's no shabil
every single week and there's no
testimony that the who created the world
in six days is a permanent o a sign
between us and that escorts us no matter
where we are and if you don't have that
so where do we do a for that we light
and we remember the miracle of the oil
what about shabesh
is
and therefore we say and you remember
all that but how come you don't do
to all these three we do. Shabas is the
seventh day
eighth day comes after 29 days 29 plus
plus 8 + 7 44 that's the 44 candles that
we light along with the shamish. So we
do do for these three wonderful mites
that we are both to do again and again
even today.
Clementine
Paulo has all kinds of dreams and he's
very distressed until finally Ysef comes
and he interprets his dreams and now and
Paul is very very happy. The says
question of the week. How did Paul know
that interpretation of his dreams was
actually correct? He heard a lot of
different things from different people.
How do you know? Oh, finally this is the
right one. How do you know?
>> What's that?
>> Dream of the solution.
>> But if it was so simple, I wouldn't ask
you this to call the answer. Everybody
says because HE DREAMT THE SOLUTION. OH,
RIGHT. THIS IS WHAT I also dreamt. But
now we know I'm asking.
>> He gave also details himself. I'm asking
THE PAKAZA pakaza is one of the ah
bigish
when p had his dreams his limbs actually
became disjointed
and they didn't return to their proper
position until ysef interpret the dream
he doesn't say it but I think based on
that we can understand what why the says
his servants also saw oh this is how do
you know you didn't have my dream look
at you look at All your lips look now
when interpreted June correctly and he
all goes back to being looking normal
in the eyes of his servants because they
also saw oh this has to be the right
thing a family looks like he always used
to
>> what's the source of it
is one of
800 900 years ago
>> and and and he learns that after that
all
>> I don't know he doesn't tell us the
source doesn't tell us the source maybe
Adam I'm assuming had a that we don't
have
places the brothers according to their
age. Listen to
they sat in front of him.
You're the oldest. Sit right here.
You're a little younger. Sit behind him.
Rashi brings he would strike on his
goblet and he said
next NEXT
you're all from one mother I see it I
see it in my golet you're all from one
mother so you guys
you guys sit here because this is a
chronological order this is the right
thing to do then continued and he
Binyamin
I'm getting this thing you don't have a
mother oh I also don't have a mother you
know what
do you notice a subtle difference
between the way he turned to the
brothers and the way he turned to he
said to the brothers
to he says
the difference
is it time to recline or is it time to
sit
is reclining. So you're doing
is what you're doing right now. You're
sitting. So be consistent. Either
everybody should sit or everybody should
recline.
Every single word is exact and precise.
There's no mistakes. If you wrote
something, there's a reason behind it.
>> I would say that well your your your
lining when you're doing something that
is joyous or something like that. When
you're moving
>> when you're doing what?
>> When you're doing something joyous.
joyous good when you're mourning. You
don't do that. For example, when we dip
the carpass because well, not morning,
it's like he's remembering something sad
that they don't have a mother, right? Um
maybe that would be the reason that's to
be
>> interesting.
Nice.
>> There's a called and he explains it a
little differently.
tough iron base
that a son who sits by his father
does he recline or not
>> a father sitting by his father
>> recines what sitting by his reb
>> he doesn't recline unless
>> unless
>> his g him permission even if it's which
is not he does not recline unless the
given permission and if It's a
it's
even though he didn't learn anything
from him, he is viewed as the of all of
us and therefore you don't reclaim the
adds that all these and these din apply
when you're all sitting on the same
table with that person with your father
with a with a god but if you have your
own table you need to recline
clearly comes out from here the sits
near
A is like
it's not that you'll eat while
reclining. Just not right. But that's
only if you're sitting in the same
table. Who's the king? If you have your
own table. Why not recline? What does it
say about the pers that you're about to
eat?
That means there's three tables. There's
a table for Ysef. There's a table for
theatim. There's a table for theim. It
comes out that theatim did not eat with
on the table. So what do I have to do?
Sit and recline. YOU CAN RECLINE. ENJOY
YOURSELF. But what did she say?
Sit with me on my table. Oh, if you're
sitting next to the king, you can't
recline. Therefore,
you must sit and not recline. And that's
why the inashi's
words. But I like your answer too.
Let's move to Kaneka. It must be that if
paras mik is read every single year
during kanuka there's got to be a for
kanuka in parasik
the puk in our mik
says shu
lanu
the puk instructs you to break lanu
break lanu what is lanu lame v 30 56 how
much is this 86 break Yeah.
>> Break the 86. What do you have?
>> 43. 43 and 43. The B continues and
instructs you.
A little from the is alle.
So take a little take the al if and add
it to the 43 you have and that's 44.
That's the 44 candles that you light in.
But now we move to a much much much more
serious topic and that is life and death
shah serious serious
wuven said that the following thing
happened to him last year his wife was
hospitalized during Kaneka his wife I'm
sorry his mother was hospitalized during
Kaneka and his mother is an almana
second day of Kaneka she calls him she
says please you know in the last few
years since your father passed away. I'm
always careful to lie exactly on time at
home with a please go and lied for me
with a exactly on time.
She insisted on the time
your mother asked you to do something.
He went and he did just that. Let's say
time is 5:00 p.m.
At 5:15 he gets a call from his sister
who's in the hospital with his mother.
She says, "Mommy is dying."
3 minutes later, his mother expired.
And now he starts thinking, "Wait a
second. Wait a second.
Was that
was that actually a mitzvah?" Another
question. After she dies, she died
before 30 minutes, which is the mitzvah.
When someone walks by and he needs to
say
inv there's such a thing called
if somebody is not lighting today and no
one is lighting for him he's not
planning to light and normally he's
lighting for him at home he has to say
when he sees the candles of somebody
else
he doesn't say because he's not lighting
anything but he does say he says
when you see a candle which is burning
after the person died is itim Is the are
these mitzvah that you can actually say?
So we have really two questions here.
Was he able to light? When somebody
tells you he is dying and the doctors
all confirmed and ya comes and says he
has five minutes to go since I have to
lie for 30 minutes person himself is he
if he is ready willing and able can he
lie knowing for sure all the dice
confirmed he's going to die in the next
5 10 minutes is he allowed to light
>> if he's allowed to light and that's a sh
on its own when one sees the these
candles lit Will he be able to say
what do you say
>> 30 minutes according to one
say if it a small amount of time
>> what are we asking
>> go according to the 30 minutes
>> we need 30 minutes without it
>> if you light with not enough oil to last
for 30 minutes
that's what we asking
The doctor said she would die 15
minutes. But who believes the doctor
when they say you should not be
>> Do you believe the doctors when they
tell you to violate and eat? Yes. Do you
do you believe that doctors when they
tell you
to violate Shabas and to drive to to the
hospital? Do you believe them? You're
not worried about you're not worried
about
>> they say someone is going to die.
Understood that we cannot live so to
speak. Do they have empowerment to say
maybe you need another
>> ah so when the doctors say this person
right to die you say come let's go out
to party let's go to the beach what do
you say to the person to the patient
>> but we don't take it at face value that
dimensions
>> even if it's 28 doctors simak and one of
you I added comes and confirms these
doctors are right now the raam was also
a doctor and the raan now do you believe
him or not
>> I don't believe
>> I'm not telling you you're wrong I'm
asking you a question says about someone
We learned how
>> there is such a thing called light.
>> What's that?
>> You're not putting out the candles. The
candles still being lit.
>> No problem. He can say the can light.
>> Can you say when you see these candles
after he expired?
>> He died 10 minutes after he lit. There's
still 20 minutes to go and he is not
around.
>> So the candle doesn't belong to him
anymore. Can you say which is the name
was uprooted from it?
You did right.
>> So no problem. So both questions no
problem. You have any liars to what you
say
even if you put enough oil for 10
minutes.
So if you know you're going to go away
in 10 minutes, where's the mitzvah here?
You did the mitzvah. You lit the candle.
>> But the mitzvah for you is to light in a
way that will last for 30 minutes and
you should be the owner of the house and
of the candle.
>> We're not going there. We're not hiring
anyone. Yeah,
>> I would say that he he basically was
going there to do the mitzvah but
afterwards you know
you
>> in Hebrew in Hebrew what you're saying
is called I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENS
AFTERWARDS
>> OKAY
>> can I light with an amount of oil less
than 30 minutes AND SAY OH MAYBE IS
GOING TO PERFORM ANOTHER MIRACLE OF
HANAGA
>> NO
>> SO BUT WHEN ALL THE DOCTORS confirm that
you have 10 minutes Isn't it like
lighting with not enough oil? You're
saying no.
>> Let's see.
This Shil has to do with three different
ways that we can understand this guy was
about to die.
Let me ask you a question. A person lit
Kanuka candles. He's healthy, 100%. He
put oil for two hours.
Three minutes after he lights the
candles, a guy comes in and says, "WOW.
I LOVE THIS HOUSE. Sell it to me." So,
it's not for sale. He says, "Oh, there's
no such thing not for sale. It's for
sale." He takes out a checkbook and he
writes him such a I don't even know how
to pronounce this number. So many zeros.
It's so he sold after four minutes. Is
it?
>> The house is not his.
>> Says
you're not
in both cases. If he intends to sell or
if he didn't intend but he his candles
did not light in his house, he's
homeless.
is not very I don't know how no m this
mice is don't know how often this
happens but it's very a person who's in
a hotel
and at 5:00 p.m. lights candles and he
checks out, says,
"You have to be the owner of the place
where you're lighting in. What are you
doing?" 3 minutes after you're checking
out, 20 minutes after, you have to be
there for 30 minutes. The has to be in
your possession in your house or the
house where you're staying during the
time of the which is half an hour says
the you are not. Isn't it similar? Same
idea. Once this guy dies, what happens
to his house? It's not his anymore. It's
transferred to the Yoshim. It's not his.
Ma, you lit without having A HOUSE FOR
30 MINUTES. IT'S LIKE SELLING THE HOUSE.
IT'S LIKE CHECKING OUT OF THE HOTEL.
It's the same application.
>> What does this wife?
She's still alive.
>> As we said, this almana,
>> no husband called her son and said,
"Listen, light for me." which means she
doesn't have a husband and when she dies
the house is no longer hers.
Isn't it like
says has anotherish bigish you light and
10 minutes later you go and you blow out
the candle intentionally not
he has a biggerish
you light with the intention to blow out
the the candles
and then you say no I actually like the
candles I'm going to keep them you're
not
you intended to blow out the candles
within the time 30 minutes of the
mitzvah you're it
when she knows she's about to die in a
few minutes. Isn't it the same as I'm
blowing out the candle in a few minutes?
So why should she be?
No.
>> Oh,
here you're checking out of the hotel.
YOU'RE SELLING THE HOUSE. YOU'RE BLOWING
OUT the candle. here I'd like to stay
was the one doing the not fantastic and
therefore
not so sure that we can apply this
second way to look at it
when you're lighting with not enough oil
you have a problem here I put enough oil
but isn't it similar to a person who is
lighting 15 minutes before alo shak you
have to have 30 minutes to allow your
candles to light, right? You come home
10 minutes before
you're allowed to light throughout the
night, right? But what about 10 minutes
before and you know there is no 30
minutes. Are you allowed to light?
You need 30 minutes. You're not going to
have it. Unless somehow you decide they
convince to push off Alo this morning. I
don't know if that's happening. Are you
allowed to light when you're coming home
from the flight 15 minutes before Alo?
Yes, the Mishna seems to say the
language of the
comes and he speaks exactly about this.
He says a person who landed he came from
the states that that's his ex the
example that he gives
and he came to the house 20 minutes
before Aloy
you can light.
Why can he light? It's as if the mitzvah
for you was made today because you were
until now you couldn't light couldn't
light. They gave you 50 minutes for the
mitzvah. So this person is about to die.
They're giving him 50 minutes. They're
giving him 10 minutes. Whatever it is,
that's when
created for him for this type of
mitzvah. But after obviously no one can
say the
you won't be able to. So according to
that she'll be able to light
but one who sees the candles will not be
able to say
or the third way to look at it is like
you said I think
I did everything
I'm alive gave me a mitzvah I'm not
supposed to be a ni even if comes and
convince me we don't listen to about
that I am supposed to
If I do everything right and then the
candle is blow out,
if the candle is blow out, I don't have
to relight it. According to that also,
you'll be able to light. But one who
sees it after the person passed away
will not be able to say because there is
no anymore here.
Can you rely on the doctors when they
say they confir 28 doctors told us? Can
you rely on us on them?
You don't need to. When a person is
dying, in fact, he's going to die.
We learn
people when they're at the stage called
he will die. But
save B writes that the first three days
when your person is a gois you can
continue thinking that he's alive
gives an example if somebody comes and
says you know I saw your relative I was
I was visiting her yesterday I saw him
dying he's a goes so in the hospital
should you should the person who heard
this start mourning right away sitting
sh right
says no after 3 days for sure. Yes. So
up to 3 days even of say normally they
don't last. You don't have to think oh
he's going imminently
even if the doctor is saying the person
is going to die
we don't have to take it from well
we can ignore it and we can say doctors
normally speak based on averages
an average means the person is in that
situation it could be cuz usually they
do within 15 minutes sometimes it's 3
minutes and sometimes it's an hour and a
half THE AVERAGE IS ABOUT 15 minutes
they don't know for sure
since according to this it's a
and
up to three days you can think I'm going
to live and if you have the opportunity
to do the mitzvah you can continue doing
the mitzah so
summarize it all the of
while you're lining you can say
the
for the person seeing the candles later
wanting to say the over with him
and we should say he should not say it
some say you always have the problem to
say this unless you're within the first
30 minutes and who told you you're in
the first 30 minutes when you walk by
and you see your neighbor's candles do
you know when he lit you don't know
where he lit you don't know so maybe
it's after and once it's after the first
30 minutes of the mitzvah. Some say you
can't say the of that that's not the of
a mitzvah that's of a hidden we say in
the mitzvah. So some say should always
be a suffic
but there is such a concept inv
but in a case like this with all this
fus that we presented we should say do
not say these type of candles but the
person himself will be able to say to
say the for
when we walk by someone's house so say
>> only if you didn't light today you're
not planning to light and nobody's pl
and nobody is mo you had at Mhm.
>> How do we count the three days of
process from the moment the doctor says
she's going to die in 20 minutes or when
when is the doctor
>> when he gets to the stage according to
the doctor's call goes so then if you
don't know if you stay with the person
you know exactly what's going on but if
you don't know you can assume after 3
days you should not tell the person to
start morning but after 3 days for sure
yes
>> but even if the doctor saying 20 minutes
is not a goal you know 3 days anyway or
>> if you don't know to 20 minutes later
find out what's going on if you don't
says they told the person that his
relative was dying. I saw him you don't
have to worry and start mourning after 3
days. That's the language
in
another serious sh a little less. I'm
talking about life and death here.
But very very Noel
is a
and every Shabas not
he finishes all his preparations before
Shabas early. So he leaves the house
about 2 hours before Shabas to be able
to sit and learn and to accept Shabas
out of sinning and learning.
This is ankinazi.
Very important to notice to note
shaban
what he does or what he used to do until
now unless we'll correct him is he also
wants to sit and learn. So he lights
about 30 minutes before his father and
then he runs to the shul and he sits and
learns. His father lights 30 minutes
later. But now he comes and he says you
know some people commented that could be
that this is the wrong thing to do for
two reasons. First of all it's not
exactly kibu that you light before the
father normally
not only the father lights but everybody
in the house at least the men the boys
they light. You first allow your father
to light and only then the kids light.
Not exactly the
when you light before your father. And
the second thing is
the first one who lights at home is
what are all the other people doing when
they're learning.
Everybody writes it's a mitzvah. So you
want to take away your father's mitzvah
and leave him with with a change with
the dessert. You want to leave him with
a hiddu. What's up with that? Is that
the right thing to do?
>> It's not his house. It's not his house.
It's the FATHER'S HOUSE.
>> AND ESPECIALLY THAT IT'S NOT YOUR HOUSE.
IT'S YOUR FATHER'S HOUSE. ISN'T it kind
of abah to leave your father with the
hiddu and take away the mitzvah? Is that
what you're saying, right?
What do you say?
That means he's going to get reward much
more than anything else. What does that
do with our
Let's deal with. Is this kibbu?
When you're sitting on the table with
your father,
the al if says you have to prioritize
your father. Give him first. Let him
wash his hands first. Can you say to
your father, listen, I'm going to watch
before you cuz I'm going to go learn
before. And can I get what about it's
also part of what we learn in the Torah
is in order to fulfill what says
>> that he says his father will be happy
that the son
>> that's a sh if the father would come and
say I'm very very happy but the son is
asking is it right not to prioritize my
father if the father says get out of
here I want to see you learning we don't
have a shil you're trying to diffuse the
shilah and I want to deal with the
shilah
we learned it from Jacobu was not
punished for the 14 years he spent You
should neck finish. So those 14 years
>> who told him to go
he told
>> can you go tol without sitting and
learning it's how to conduct yourself
without yeshiva
most explained that's the reason he sat
in yeshiva so and didn't fulfill his
father's wish he did because you can't
go into a contaminated place without
protecting yourself the only way to
protect yourself is to learn how to deal
with it that mean to immerse
and saturated with and
okay now maybe maybe I'm ready to go and
meet who I'm supposed to meet outside
a very wicked person so I'm not so sure
we can give a proof from anyways that's
before and anyways that's not
this is
good no good
you like it you don't like it you don't
Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> The light of the candles is
>> to prioritize your father is also the
Yeah. What's the definition of
to feed him if you need
to dress him to take him out for a walk
if he needs to help him get up to help
him sit down all the other things that
give him and joy are part of kibbut but
that's not the definition of kibbu from
the toy
as if I don't do it they can't try
if you did you make a bonus
>> take food before your father sounds
do a mitzvah before your father.
>> What does that mean? I'm doing a mitzvah
for my father
>> before
your father. If I want to say earlier
or only think that
>> this is Christian
>> says
if you have your father you're hosting
your father
that's his language you have an
obligation to honor your father.
Make sure your father washes his hands
first.
Serve him first.
I'm quoting you the obligation. Honor
your father.
He comes first.
Especially at this your father's house.
He comes first.
was asked a similar question. He was
asked by a bah or a person who's married
and he's with his father in the house
and he says my father does before he
goes half an hour he goes to the mikvah
he dips a g
HALF AN HOUR BEFORE HE ACTUALLY I WANT
TO LIGHT and I want to leave and my
father is my father says no what kind of
business is this I have to lie before
you say very very similar to the was
asked do I actually have to wait for my
father to finishes all all his
preparations. How many can you say for
one mah? And he keeps going
asks starts by saying this really should
not be a shila funny language. He say
should be it shouldn't be a
this of
and not exactly of he says this that
should be
but it should not be because we have to
somehow make a compromise and peace
between the father and his son because
the son is obligated in and the father
is obligated not to cause the son to
transgress by
upsetting him. So they should somehow
resolve this. But if you're asking me
says we have to talk about it in this
because it should not be relevant.
He says the father is not right.
When we are all standing here enlighting
prioritize your father I think that's
what you were hinting to before. But if
I want to light half an hour before you
it's not there's no issue of
priorization. I'm doing a mitzvah now
and you're doing a mitzvah later.
I'm hungry. So I have to wait now half
an hour until you finally light so I can
eat.
We don't find this type of a isue until
your father writes. You're not supposed
to. No, when you're standing together
about to do the mitzvah or do something
else, whatever it is, prioritize your
father. But there's no issue for me to
go ahead before him and to do any that I
want.
>> The fact that uh you mentioned that the
first person who writes,
>> well, we're not dealing we're dealing
with first. We'll get there.
I so
we have no problem. Get out of it. When
he wants to do it half an hour early,
there's no prioritization. I'm doing a
mitzvah now. My father's going to do it
later. Prison is only when we're
standing together about to do something.
Let your father go first. But is he
really demoting the mitzvah element the
mitzvah part the of the father when he's
lighting first taking the mitzvah and
making his mitzvah the mitzvah and his
father only the hindu mitzvah
and sim shake
tremble
shake tremble
this how you remember So yeah,
writes you're allowed to light a candle
from another candle
comes he says no we're knowing to be not
to light from to because the mitzvah is
one.
So what you're doing for the for the
second is demoting the first one. Don't
use candle to candle. That is the min
says the
the the
because the rest are not for a mitzvah
at all. That's his language. The says
really it's sufficient to light one
candle for everybody in the household.
The writes
if that's the case when there's many
people in the house it's sufficient to
light one for everybody even though we
see that people do say aba when they
light their own candles again
the father lights and then other
household members light with aba because
they have a kavana I don't want to be
with my father's
then you can go and light for yourself.
But
you don't need that. And therefore,
you can't use the first candle to use
two other candles because they're not
really at least the same level of a mitz
or whatever you want to treat them.
It seems on the the even a father and
his son when they light in the same
house if the son has a kavana I don't
want to be with my father's he is still
not going to be able to light from the
main candle because the main candle the
first candle is the of the mitra
and all the other candles even though we
say over them they have a little lesser
of a
lower level of a mitzvah
mitzvah of Hindu but it's not the eco
mitzvah it's is
however
he writes that if you light the main
candle and then tonight is the fourth
night the fifth night you lit the first
candle and then remember oh wait a
second I didn't say the baka can you say
the baka on the second candle
you didn't say
as you were supposed to on the first
candle you started lighting so excited
and then you remember wait a second you
I didn't say the braha the second candle
is only a hidd candle can you say ab
over that you're saying yes
>> yeah until you finish the candle
>> but the second candle is only a hidu
candle it's not the main part of you say
for hidu
last week we mentioned the abu mentioned
in the is actually from that yes you do
say aba for
doesn't seem to like it normally we
don't say aba
says,
"You can still say Abra for the candle."
>> First candle.
>> When you finish the first one and you're
about to light the second one, you're
even allowed to say now when you forgot
to say it for the first one. And it's a
because as soon as you finished the
first candle, you finished the all
you're adding now.
So, you shouldn't be able to do it.
we only light one and you're but he says
no normally when people light like we
said you have a kavana I don't want to
be with the and therefore I'm allowed to
and therefore he says that's the case
you're obligated that's a nice thing to
do
asks himself from what the mam brings
that the other people in the household
cannot use the first candle why not I
have a kavana to be a for me nothing
happened until I light myself and when I
light it's mamesh a nail of a mitzah not
a hindu mitzah he says no it's mamesh he
says
he says the first night kennel is what
potters the whole house it exempts the
whole house it's a everything else they
do and yet he allows to do it comes out
our discussion is dependent on
one hand and on the other
say that if somebody already lit in the
house, everybody else that lights, they
can do it. But it's only a Hu type of an
activity that they're involved in. Now,
according to
the Mameish, a full-fledged mitzvah, and
he will be able to do it. And he's not
demoting his father by doing so.
We'll stretch it and compare it to
something else. By brings a
tour regarding
he cut off the what if the moy did that
and there's still some extra called but
it's the extra that he didn't cut but if
he'll forget about it it's not if the
mitsah was done when the finished and he
sees that some leftover should he come
back and actually do
He finished the B. Should he come back
and do it?
>> It depends who you ask. And it depends
if it's shabas or weekdays.
>> If it's on shabas, should he come back
and do it? Everybody agrees he doesn't
come back. Why? Because if you do, what
are you doing now?
>> The was done. It's not. So what you do
have now is
what about the weekday? It's a Monday.
There's a
maybe we should all say maz to that just
took place two days ago
with a new baby born
the son of who sitting right here and
join us every single week and he should
grow up to be a gigantic
the over there I was watching him did a
great job as he always did he didn't
forget anything
everything you took everything is fine
but let's say it happened on a Wednesday
do you go back to do it or not
says nope no the was done the says go
back why the says
when you do it beautiful so it's a they
are all they are a Hindu mitzvah. So
theam says once you finished the mitzvah
is done
when you come back you're not doing
mitzvah you're done doing something it's
not connected to the mitzvah you can
only do a hindu mitzvah when you're
involved in a mitzvah but when the
mitzvah was finished before yesterday an
hour ago it's over the hindu mitzvah
what are you going to it has to be
associated with something has to be
associated with a mitzvah you do a
mitzvah do it in a complete more
beautiful way that most beautiful way
that you can but that's when you're
involved in a mitzvah
The T says not like that. The T says
anytime that you go back and you fix and
you make more beautiful what you did
before it's still a mitzvah. Based on
that
brisk explains image he compares this to
the of the and the regarding
similarly they're very consistent the
changes from the language of the from
the opinion of the says
the order he lights all the candles for
everybody meaning the he lights one
candle for everybody in the household
like we do in The wife lights candles
for everybody in the house. And the
lights is the amount of people in the
household and the amount of days. That's
what normally they do according to the
safe days each one of the household
members. And that's what we do. They
write. This is very consistent with what
they hold regarding. According to theam,
it's not shy to do a hiddah without the
mitzvah. If that's the case when the
balabis lights his candles and he
finishes the mitzvah is not GOING TO BE
SH FOR OTHER PEOPLE TO JUMP IN AND TO do
their hedu because the ma mitzvah was
DONE JUST LIKE THE mitzvah of the br was
done and it's not sh to come back later
to do a hindu mitzvah when the mitzvah
is not here
but like the tool because the tool says
even on a weekday sorry on a weekday
when you go back to do it's even after
the was completed because Yes, you can
do a Hindu mitzvah to a mitzvah that was
already completed. As long as you
beautify something, it's considered
hindu mitzvah. Each one of the household
members can go and light. So it comes
out that after the lit all the other
naos are only of mitzvah and he holds
like the and the pimead that everything
that the people in the house will will
light are only mitzvah.
According to that, the father can say to
his son, what you're doing is taking
away my mitzvah. I had a main mitzvah
and then there's a hiddu mitzvah. You
took my main mitzvah and all you left me
is the hiddah. But it could be that even
according to the opinions of
the father doesn't lose anything from
having his son light before him because
as soon as the candle was lit, he's also
mitzvah. THIS IS HIS HOUSE. He's the
there should be a candle of in your
house and when he lights the mitzvah he
completes the job and even if we'll say
not like that
it's somebody else lighting and
you should prioritize yourself over
somebody else doing a mitzvah for you.
The whole essence of is
what does try to DO
as somebody already said here. So he's
not nullifying the mitzvah of he wants
to do the mitz of and then he wants to
go and sit and learn which has reward
correspond to everything. It's exactly
the opposite of what theim want to do
and that's the rectification of
the of the learning to of the son should
override this. So to summarize
there is an inan to prioritize the
father but only when you're both doing
the mitzvah not if the father doesn't
want to light now he wants to light
later there's no in of prioritization if
it's demoting or not is this going to be
but even if it is and we should
definitely explain this to a smart
father and even if he's not smart we'll
spend a little more time explaining this
to him he should prioritize his son he
should be very happy that his son wants
to go and learn and has spent a little
more time with
and it's going to bring
to the whole house.
>> Welcome everybody else and it's Arabus
also that no one's anything.
>> No, no, no.
You're allowed to start lighting.
It's very early and you're
don't do it and make sure if you do you
have enough oil to last all the way to
half an hour after but once you light
you're fine there's different how early
before shabas one should light tonight
so he he does half an hour only his
father maybe does 15 minutes before and
he does 45 minutes before much much
after plaque shouldn't be a problem
>> sure the early go when it gets dark
But the was done. You said the B is
going to kick in later. We're going to
find out retroactively if your if the
candles lasted for that duration that
we're looking for. But the lit is done
now
riddle riddle a glowing riddle. Can it
be that a person lit his Khan candles in
the right place?
There's a lot of people who pass by and
see the Khan candles pursue.
Nobody is sick. There's no I always have
to say that before.
Oh sick is about to die. No, no one's
sick. The same amount of people are
going to pass by tonight. Tonight is the
fifth night. The same amount of people
like yesterday and three days ago. And
yet we're going to tell them change the
location.
Yesterday it worked fine. Tonight the
same amount of people are going to pass
by. But we're going to tell them nope.
Change the place that you were lighting.
You're lying for 4 days from now. Change
it. The rest of the change location.
When would that be?
Can it be? Not a trick question. It can
be. When did this happen?
Perhaps.
I don't understand. A person lights
every single night. The first four
nights, five nights, six nights, he lies
in one place. That's Gavaldik. The rabbi
comes says this is the best place to
light. A lot of people came by and saw
it.
Then in the middle of Hanukkah, the
rabbi come says no, switch location.
Says why? The same amount of people are
going to pass by tonight if they're
going to see it. And yesterday told me
it's good. So why is it not good right
now? And there's not any bad smell or
anything like that in that area. We have
to change.
>> Same amount of people in the household.
>> Everything is constant. Same amount of
healthy people. Same amount of
everything. Everything is the same.
>> Is the height
>> height is the same from yesterday?
Nobody renovations here.
>> Did he move in recently?
>> Did he move in?
>> Yeah. And if you did so
LIKE
>> YOU GET 15 POINTS,
>> you hear that? What is he talking about?
He's talking about it's not here.
Normally
we learn you want to light on the right
side, right? You light outside your
house on the right side. Why on the
right and not on the left?
>> Mus is on the left. Muzan is on the
right is on the left. But normally we go
to the right with everything. Why on the
right?
>> Because we move from left to right.
>> Mishnaba says two reasons. Either that
we always prefer the right or there's
more consuming on the right because
people turn to the right. So
we normally put the kanakos on the left
and the muza on the right. And if there
is no muza you go to the right. If you
want to prioritize the right because of
these two reasons of the
base, we learn a person who rents a
house in rents in the first 30 days does
not have to put him.
If he did, can he say
most of the allow him to say the even
before 30 days?
when the 30 days kicks in. So he did not
put as the says first 30 days he didn't
put he moved in exactly a month ago
when the 30th day today kicks in what
does he have to do now? Put a muza. So
until now the kanukia was on the right
side because there's no muza here. Now
that the muza comes, should he transfer
the manoya from the right to the left to
do what the shuk says? Shukhan says the
muza goes on the right, the manoya goes
on the left. Now that I finally have a
muza, it's the fourth day, fifth day of
sixth day. Whenever in the middle of
should I transfer the from here to here?
Yes.
He discusses this and one of the other
to do this
when they established the tabernacle
they used to assemble and disassemble
assemble and disassemble assemble and
disassemble. So the the wood that would
go on the north tomorrow you have to put
it again north. So they wrote to know
which goes where
some say this will apply in suka as well
and when you take apart your suka
tonight to this year next year when you
build it again you have to make sure
that the same words are standing in the
same place some say you don't that's the
reason some say that in the talis some
people have anara why do you have the
atara you have beautiful silver thing on
top or even just the the the material
why do you have to put it to make sure
that what you had yesterday on top on
the shoulders or on your head doesn't go
on the bottom
you don't put it
some say it doesn't make a difference
the go the the didn't care about this
and he doesn't care to switch to flip
the talis every single day but this is
what the and the brings him discuss and
he says this is doesn't provide the isue
of switching like the kesh of the
mishkar because he says first of all
when I put it here the first day of I
knew that the 30th day will come in the
middle of the week. So I had in mind
that when the 30th day will come I will
change it and second one it's not right
to keep both of them now on the right
because people going to pass by says
what's wrong with this guy doesn't he
know the manura goes on the right the
muza goes on the right and the manura
goes on the left and therefore for these
two reasons he says switch location
is not crazy about it the says he brings
up that you do have to put everything in
the same place where it was yesterday
like the tabernacle stays in the says
yesterday you kept it here next year you
put it on the left side this year you'll
keep everything on the right but
according to that brings that will be
the answer to our question
so so that tonight Friday night if all
you have is one candle and you can use
it for shabas or you can use it for
kaneka which one overrides
Shab overrides. Why?
That is what Raa says. What does that
mean?
What does it mean?
>> Rashi says you're going to stump your
feet a million times. Stump your toe.
People don't like to eat in dark.
She says everybody is upset to sit in
the dark. That's notice.
But the
says who owns to whom does the mitzvah
of Shabas belong?
>> The woman. Who owns or who does the
mitzvah of belong to?
>> The husband.
The wife is going to say, "Ah, so you
prefer YOUR MIT OVER MINE." And that's
going to cause the give all the
committee. WHAT KIND OF GONNA BE? YOU
DON'T CARE ABOUT MY MITES. YOU ONLY CARE
ABOUT YOUR MIT. OH, what's going to be a
m is that? Wait a second. Based on that,
a couple is about to get divorced.
Sunday, they have a meeting in the
she knows he prefers himself over her.
She knows this for the last 10 years.
That's why they're getting divorced on
Sunday. Should he also prioritize nil
shabis
or not buy according to the media at
least is not
tell he's going to get divorc
>> no the rabbi set an appointment for him
>> what's that
>> you see from the scheme you see the game
in the scheme they didn't there's no
there's no keep wait A SECOND IF YOU'RE
ABOUT TO DIVORCE 80% YOU'RE GOING TO
DIVORCE NOBODY SAYS THAT what do you see
from here you see from here that until
that final
signature on the appears. You must
continue investing and hoping and
dvening and doing everything you can to
maintain
otherwise they will tell you well when
it's clear for you know for a fact that
no this is always relevant as long as
they're married this is always relevant.
There was a couple that came to the
Osame
and they told him we want to get
divorced.
So says you can't do such a drastic move
without having your kid present. Bring
your kid.
They brought the kid back. The looks at
the kid and he says to him, "You should
know your parents have a plan to turn
you into an orphan
if in fact they go through with this
plan." So please don't do don't do don't
do don't do don't do don't do don't do
don't do don't do don't do don't do me a
favor. You're going to be an orphan
basically. So don't roam in the streets.
Come to me. You'll be my child.
Maybe I said this before here. If I did
it's a mitzah to repeat. If not you're
in for a treat.
A guy came to the
and he told him rabbi I want to get
divorced.
What was going on? It doesn't work.
We're married 3 years. Did you try? Yes.
Yes. Rabbi, we try. Did you really
really try? We tried. We tried. We
tried. That's it. Finished.
Can you do the get for us?
So the motion says to him, "Come
tomorrow 9:00 to my office. You have a
kid?" "Yeah." One and a halfyear-old.
Bring him as well.
This person thought it's part of the
procedure that the kid has to be. He
doesn't know it's the first time having
a kid. The following morning 9:00, they
come to the office. They sit down and
the Bush says, "Didn't you say you have
a son?" Says, "Yes, bring him in." They
go outside. They bring the kid. The Bush
says, "Can I hold your son?" Are you
sure?
Puts this little kid, one and a
halfyear-old, on his lap. He looks at
him
and he says, "Dear Mo,
you should know what I'm about to tell
you now. You're not going to understand.
But oh boy, will you understand this
later.
What's going to happen in a few minutes
will essence turn you into an orphan.
Your life is going to be miserable. It's
going to be hell.
You're going to be in every time there's
a partyish party.
The parents of other kids will come.
Your parents will never want to be in
the same room together.
When they don't learn is
everybody's always going to be looking
at you. Whenever the word get will be
mentioned, everybody will be staring at
you.
The neighbors will be your father. The
aunts and uncles, they will be your
mother. One shabas you will spend by
your mother and you're going to hear
nasty things about your father. The
following shabas you'll be by your
father and you're going to hear the most
terrible things about your mother. Your
life is going to be hell. But don't
worry
is
the father. He'll take care of you.
The father and the mother become oid.
The father says to him, "Abi,
can can we still discuss this outside or
listen as long as we don't have a
signature on the gate? You can sure you
can discuss it." The father comes
quickly. He takes the kid from the rabbi
sister's wife. They go outside and the
beer mo is still sitting there 120 years
later waiting for them to come back.
They never came back.
I said this over once when I was in the
states in the shay.
At the end of this year, this fellow
comes to me crying.
He says to me, exactly the way you
described it is what happened to my son.
And I feel terrible. I said, I'm so
sorry. I have no idea. This a meant to
be a shir for Schlumbice. I'm assuming
people want to hear this type of things.
If I would have known, I would never say
this. He says, it's excellent that YOU
SAID IT. PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW he was
crying tell me it's exactly what
happened to my son exactly but that you
said it because people need to know so
therefore I feel comfortable to say this
even if
it's going to cause someone to shed some
tears
another glowing riddle
can it be is there something unique
about the fourth day of a that applies
only in the fourth day and is not
relevant don't tell me that you have to
light four candles on the I know
A different that applies only because
today is the fourth day of Khan. It
doesn't apply in the third, fifth day,
eighth day or the first day. Only in the
fourth day like
>> what about it?
>> Well, one says to increase one.
>> Do we pass?
Do we pass? No, we pass. So what's
something that applies to us today
only in the fourth day can it be?
Two people are led in the same kanukia.
>> True. I thought you were going to say
that.
>> Two people, very poor people, they only
have one kanukia. So they're able to
light the first night, each one on each
edge of the kanukia and the second,
third, the fourth, they can't because
you're not it's not going to be
apparent. True. On top of that, that's
the the obvious one. The brings
something a little more
something
to like.
So they came,
are you allowed to ulogize? You're
allowed to fast.
You sure?
>> Yes.
>> Correct. Kanuka, you're not allowed to
ulogize. You're not allowed to fast. The
writes,
what about if somebody has a What about
if someone has a terrible dream last
night?
We spoke about it before. Today we don't
fast even for those things mentioned in
because says we're not such great people
that they're giving us messages from but
according to the original
andite people have them like to fastite
if the yite falls on can one fast
no said one doesn't the adds that if one
did
he has to FAST ANOTHER DAY
COMPENSATORY FOR what he did.
Good.
But what's that?
>> Right. So the says don't
say don't says the more but if you did
and you didn't listen to the so you owe
another fast day.
But this is different if this happens on
fourth day of what's so unique about
writes there's days are called special
days on the calendar that
for different things that happen one of
them is
why because yim
burnt the migila that wrote in the name
writes this is one of the days
writes in
that marries in the month of Nissan. We
don't say month of Nissan. Does he fast?
>> Yes. The writes
why? Because this is one of the days
that people fast.
So you see even on a day that normally
you don't fast but since a special day
is
one is able to fast same thing will
apply normally it's days that you don't
fast but is such a special day that is
so one will be able to fast the writ
based on this
is one of those days
it's not better than
therefore one will be able to fast I so
he says, "So, how come the Ramadan
didn't mention it?" The Rama should have
said, "You don't fast on except for he
says an interesting thing because
normally people don't get married at the
end of the month.
Go to the next hall and check if this is
still correct today. I don't know."
That's what he writes. But the writes
you don't fast because there's different
versions if in fact it was when he burnt
it or it was on different days. But the
writes
If you did fast, should you do another
fast? Or if you fasted,
you didn't listen to the can you fast
the extra fast
because it's a day that you're allowed
to fast. It comes out that the answer to
our riddle is the fourth day of which is
different than the all other days. Some
can say that you're allowed to fast and
even if you're not allowed to but you
did you do not have to add another day
after to compensate for what you did. So
there's the answer to our riddle. Last
thing
next.
Thank you so much.
should come first
>> and then
wars after salvation
>> something is wrong with the order. THANK
YOU VERY MUCH for the wars. We spoke
about it. Why do you want what why we
want to thank for the wars and then
thank you for the salvation you
delivered after the war. But you're
SAYING NO. YOU'RE SAYING THANK YOU FOR
THE SALVATION AND THANK you for the wars
out of order.
That's why you say thank you for the war
itself. But why are you saying it after
the salvation? It should be the reverse
comes says based on
there we learn
doesn't strike.
You're in the MIDDLE OF THE WAR. you
should know is and there's already
salvation that's already there. So we
say thank you. We think it's a war and
then says you know what maybe I'm going
to help them. OH
he always prepared THE SALVATION BEFORE
THE WAR EVEN STARTED.
We say thank you
before he supports those who fall. First
they fall and then he supports him. NO.
So therefore we mention THE THE SUPPORT
BEFORE the downfall because it's always
there. This applies to us person is in
the middle of his own personal war
challenge tribulation difficulties
whatever it is uncomfortable things that
we all want to avoid.
I need salvation. SUBMISSION IS ALREADY
there
should reveal that's what he prepared
before the war started before the
trouble the challenge whatever one goes
through
>> it
was first first was the bitterness then
was the
>> right
>> right right something you can only
appreciate the after you went through
the salvation so first you have to
salvation understand why it was really
good for you
say no back then he will deliver a
parent.
Amen.
