Noah Could've Had a Bud Light with Rabbi Aaron Dovid Poston

everybody [Music] Shalom everybody welcome back to the ebony beat midrash welcome home to Torah and we want to dedicate this shior the learning should go towards the refusalema febrezeca we deal with some very fundamental things here and a lot of it is not PC so tonight especially it is not politically correct hang in there hopefully we won't get banned but I want to mention in advance that the Hebrew Source sheets that we use are there's a link Down Below in the description box and we encourage you to follow along in the Hebrew also there are links to previous classes as well and if you haven't yet subscribed to the internet YouTube channel you may still do so and you might as well hit that notification Bell on the way so you'll be notified when new classes are uploaded Noah and you'll find this in Genesis chapter 9 we're going to deal with one particular verse we can talk for an hour about one verse yes that's true so Noah the tiller of the Earth was the first to plant The Vineyard he drank of the wine and became drunk and he uncovered himself within his tent in Hebrew it says like this hell the hell could mean began we'll see Rashi explains another level doesn't mean that it doesn't mean that if he began but it means that there's also another issue here and it's related to the word hulin which means to profane he profaned himself okay so that's the first word [Music] so Noah profaned himself or if you want to just say that he he began the first thing he did was plant Vegeta Karim but he is called the tiller of the soil or the man of the earth however you choose to translate that so what we'll actually see is there's different levels to one word because it is true that yes he was the first to do so and that will be an issue we will discuss as well as what what kind of debasement what kind of profanity that he calls for himself through this uh drunken well let's just say from planting The Vineyard first and then the rest of the verse says yes he drank from the wine he got drunk the yet Gail now that is not an easy word but we will discuss what that means he somehow un revealed he revealed himself he uncovered himself within the tent within his tent so let's look at rashi rashi says right away the word hell can be understood yes as hulin a language of profane because why listen to the words of Rashi for he should have first engaged in planting something different so the first thing he did was planted a Vineyard and the measure says that he shouldn't basically he should not have planted the vineyard first from which wine is produced but from other trees okay that's really the only thing I wanted to mention particularly about the vineyard and why he well let's just say uh the pussic and we read Rashi let's get into the meat potatoes of the clear car and that's who we use for the basis of our discussion the Clear Car okay so in the middle of the page it says like this this is a language of if you want to translate as profane or let's leave it like that because why Rashi says actually the Clear Car explains what Rashi means that this concept of being profane is the opposite of Holiness or at least that's how we're going to translate kadusha to this point so therefore hulin is profane the opposite of Holiness now this next statement the clear card is going to make is a a running theme for the clear car but we're going to see the source and he says any place that you find now get there literally means a fence and erva literally means nakedness but in this case it means sexual immorality okay so any place that you find some type of obstacle some kind of guard something that's preventing you from this sexual impropriety that's where you will find Holiness now let's go into the source sheet and number two in the sushi it says this is from the Madrid vikaraba 26 4. Leviticus you'll find that all of the various um the various illicit relations the the illegal criminal uh immoral sexual relations are found in partial kadoshi so you have the Iraq in right in partial cadosha so you have a juxtaposition so there's a reason it teaches you any place that you find some kind of a guard a fence against sexual immorality what do you find atom because you shall be holy the asika had the rabbi Yehuda been passing and we find the similar statement go there Atma Min that anyone who guards themselves from sexual immorality is called holy that's going to be the source so whenever we're going to hear again the clear card use this theme the clear card didn't make it up this is an ancient source and now we know why because air for all the different lists of the era you'll find in Paris kadoshim and therefore you are called holy okay now he says like this this is where the drinking part I told you in the beginning this is not going to be so PC this is going to upset a lot of people who like to drink [Music] now what does that mean that wine causes one two become accustomed feel that it's okay regill regular in sexual immorality now we have a verse in hoshiah 4 verse 11. you'll see that number three on the source sheet so it goes like this new to the iron as if all three okay sexual immorality yayin as obviously that's we'll call that old wine because the tirusha's new wine yikak laiv it grabs your heart it takes your heart away as they translate it Rashi says there that the Harlot tree and the old wine as well as the new wine with which they are involved hath captured their hearts away from me that's what God is saying now I just want to stop here for a second because what is the lathe right the lathe it seems like it's right here in the middle of my chest beating yes and no that's not only the seat of my heart my heart my soul rests on my heart and my heart here is in the where the soul is and the soul is in the upper part called the Moa right thinking and we're gonna we're gonna discuss this a little bit further so you have a better Insight what we mean by your heart but it will take away your heart meaning let's just say you're you're sane thought processes uh you know knowing there are consequences to your actions that's the truth about zunus as well as wine now there is in shots which you have behind me the oral Torah there are six orders of mishnayos and within seder nashim that's dealing with women laws of women seemingly you have nausea and Sota sotas obvious but why would Nazir be right before Sota the truth is interestingly enough there is a Gomorrah in Sota page 2A that actually discusses this very point so at the bottom of this part of this Source it mentions that in chapter six of numbers you have um you have the Nazir and in chapter five of numbers you have the Sota so you see that and this is what they're going to say that if somebody was up on the Temple Mount watching the procedure of a Sota which I'll describe in a second they would likely want to cause themselves to take an oath not to drink wine okay so let's back up a little bit so the Gamora this is the gamoran 2A of Sota the Gamora questions the placement the very smirkut of the mishnaik order in uravnashim and the Tana Rose from track taking notes Here which is the tractate preceding Sota in the order of the mission so what did he teach what was Revenue teaching that Nazir in Nazir that required that he teached immediately afterwards so at first glance there seems to be no connection at all between the TR this track tape of Sota and that of Nazir but the gamar itself gives an answer and it's inquiring with the statement of rabihood and Nasi in regarding to the actual sequences of harsh itself in the Torah so he explains what I just said you have chapter 5 which is Sota and you have six which is Nazir so this will teach you that anyone who sees her in her state of disgrace as she undergoes the right of the bitter water would renounce should renounce wine as wine is one of the causes ready for this drum roll please wine is one of the causes of sexual transgression as it loosens inhibitions I'd like someone to argue with me about that apparently that is a statement made in the gemara I believe that it's true for the same reason the Torah teaches the passages one after the other rebuted went ahead and he arranged the tractates in the same way but in the opposite now what is a Sota I don't this is not the topic for tonight but if a woman a married woman was a secluded with another man who was not her husband and her husband was jealous and had warned her don't do this and he has his suspicions about her so she'll be in if she's in denial of course so then we have like this truth serum a truth test and basically she will be made to drink certain Waters these waters are consisting of the partial of the Torah that has God's name that described the Sota it is erased by the way we never erase God's name but the Torah itself describes as what happens and they take that ink powder put it into the drink she drinks it now if she is guilty she'll die she won't die on the spot but her stomach will blow up and she will perish on the other hand if she's innocent there's an exoneration for her and there is going to be a blessing of Shalom bias and bizarat Hashem at some point she will become pregnant and that would be a a tikkun for the uh the the the the Sean bias issues that need to be fixed okay so now you know what a Sota is so apparently if there was this seemingly suspicion of sexual impropriety it might have happened as a result of the wine and therefore someone was witnessing this um procedure this ritual on the Temple Mount they made with may they may take or they should take upon themselves uh the abstinence of wine as the nuts here for those who are not familiar with nuts you can look it up but basically you're talking about a person who has made an oath not to drink wine not to have their hair cut not to go into a cemetery and whatnot and it's a it's a temporary situation anyway so the clear copy continues I'll just read what he said last based on uh that last that last um statement in Sota cold Heroe Soto Kula yazir Atmos anybody who witnesses this Sota lady in her disgrace would swear upon himself would take upon the oath of another away from wine so the Clear Car continues it's four lines down the middle off came his cure Lush on how can his curbow lushen the hell now we understand why it doesn't just mean he began but simultaneously it means that he disgraced himself that it was through this planting that he made himself disgraced and he was the yet God we still don't know exactly what that means but he somehow uncovered himself he was disgraced and uncovered himself within this tent this word Viet has many meanings as well later on the Clear Car explains that in chat in Numbers chapter 25 verse 1 he will discuss this so in parshot um and one second the numbers 25 17. I just want to read the verse to you it says Israel settled in cheating this um dealing with balak wanted to curse the Jews he failed he couldn't curse the Jews and said he blessed them but there was Plan B to get them to sin if you can get the Jews to sin basically they'll curse themselves I mean if his goal is to have them cursed and it would be easier for him to curse them if they were not right with God as the verse says Israel settled in sheep team and guess what the next three words says right that the people began to commit adultery or if you want to translate the people disgrace themselves with adultery with the daughters of Moab Rashi says just so we have the clear right to commit adultery with the daughters of Moab he says as a result of billum's advice as is stated in part in okay okay so now let's continue on with the Clear Car and he ends by saying the iron gown partials he'll discuss that also in Parsons not so the whole idea of the juxtaposition and the similarity between someone who becomes a Nazir after witnessing the Sota okay the next paragraph begins like this why is he called a tiller of the ground or literally a man of the Earth so the clear car has some amazing insights kipula zo this action that he undertook Hayes because man has two components he's a physical being but he's also a spiritual being so from the aspect of his material being where did we come from why is Adam called Adam because he comes from the Adama so from the aspect he's in ishadama he himself the aspect of his physical self was the one that led him towards planting this Vineyard first okay and then he's going to now discuss the Seiko the spiritual aspect or let's call it the intellectual aspect because as I mentioned many times the word in ramban maimonides terms is intellect and in maharajal in terms it means spirit now you may say oh it proves here that he's talking about the spirit I would agree Adam right but the sejo part of a person that is a portion of a part of God above so to speak now you can look at Job 31 12 just as a source for that and that says now what is the portion of God from above he's talking about himself that he has right he's talking about that Heavenly aspect of his being the soul Itself by the way just to keep with the same theme that we are made of the physical and the spiritual in Genesis chapter 2 verse 7 where it says the God lord formed the man of the Dust of the ground and he breathed into his nostrils the soul of life okay so there is interesting Rashi on this he made him of Earthly matter and of heavenly matter the Earth the body of Earthly matter and the soul of the Heavenly matter um one other thing I just want to show you at the end of Rashi a living Soul see cattles and beasts were also called living Souls right now for shaim but this one of one of man is the most alive of them all because he was given additional intelligence he additionally was given intelligence and speech by the way the ankulus explains there when nishmaskhaim that he was given this a soul of life that it's a ruach Malala meaning a a speaking spirit so let's just keep that in mind when we open our mouths that we make sure that we reflect the Creator who made us because that is The Godly part that's expressing itself but let's just take it as we're going to translate Seiko as spiritual intellect he says like this what happens the ishadama the physical part of Noah is what wanted to plant this carrot the vineyard but the Seiko part which is very Godly ain't no mask the soul part of him did not agree it didn't really want to it was negative why why would the real Soul be negative because the soul or let's say the spiritual intellect knows that the wine causes him to be in a state of confusion right the opposite of sober whatever barbell cichlow what how would you translate it on no um of course of course very good of course his soul is of course okay let's continue Karu again why is he called meaning alternatively another explanation why is Noah called ish Adama see and the clear car says he followed in the ways of Adam the first man what did Adam the first man do he was sinned with Geffen what does that mean there are four different opinions of what the tree the fruit of the tree of knowledge and good and evil was what type of tree it was so I do have here brachos page 40 let me just see where and it's number eight 40a the truth is I don't know why I don't know if I didn't bring down the whole Gamora but uh the the first opinion says like this it's ready Mayer the tree from which Adam the first man ate rugby mayor says it was from the vine as nothing brings wailing and trouble upon man even today other than Wine as it says in regard to Noah and that's our verse in chapter 9 verse 21 and he drank from the wine and became drunk says it was a fig tree um I just want to go rub Yehuda says it was wheat and if I'm not mistaken the fourth opinion is that it was the Citron from the S Rogue okay I don't want to stick I don't want to spend too much time on that you guys could go into the Gomorrah and figure it out okay davara here this is another opinion alternatively that it's the yayin shigoi rainbow remember the original question why is he called a man of the Earth I know we translated originally it's a tiller of the Earth but literally means a man of the Earth so the clear card says it's wine that causes his soul to depart from him and return to the ground before its time what does that mean that means that it doesn't extend your life expectancy it actually would reduce your life expectancy now we will discuss the difference between one cup of wine and many cups of wine okay I know doctors say one cup of wine a day is enough let's see commotion Mr now there is a verse and I want you to bear with me in Proverbs 14 12. now even though we'll read the English it doesn't make sense in the English it makes much more sense in the Hebrew there is a way that seems right to a man but its end is ways of death okay very nice very nice right each person thinks what he's doing is right okay so people think what they're doing is right how do you know what's right and what's wrong well you have the Torah but in the meanwhile in Hebrew it says yashar usually we use acronyms to describe what we call the first letter in Hebrew we call it Roche tevos the first letter of each word can spell other words well we also do Sophie tables so we're gonna look at the Sophie tables in a second so I'm sorry Sophie Davis shortly Rashi says there regarding this idea oh I didn't finish the last part yesterday so each person thinks he's doing the right thing but in the end it's Derek modus it actually leads one towards death now Rashi says there's a way that seems right to a man he commits a transgression what does he say I didn't sin in fact I did a Mitzvah I'm doing good it's the right thing to do to speak all this Lush and horror and tell everybody to warn them well you better speak to your local Orthodox Rabbi first and find out if that's really true have you confronted the person did you have a private conversation with the person there's a lot of things that go into this before you go out and put it on the The Times Square neon lights right by the way I just want to continue with the Rashi because the rest of Rashi explains when it says there's a way that seems right to A man gives Asaf as an example okay I want to go back into this idea of the clear car because absolutely fascinating as I mentioned to you if you look at the Sophie tavos we're on the second line down of that paragraph you see the Yash that's a shin Derek it's a cuff and yashar with a race sugar Shaker means drunk okay so the last words of there is um a way that seems right to a man the last letter Sophie tavos shechhar okay which means either strong drink or drunk because anyone who is drunk yet he goes in what he thinks is straight I know that the police if they would ever pull one over pull someone over they're gonna ask you right if they suspect that you're drunk to walk in a straight line and the person says oh of course I can because everything looks like it even plain to him but the truth is hey okay but he thinks it is okay now I want you just to look and number 10 because we will quote it shortly but I want to skip to it uh talmud Bob Lee Yoma 75a so there's an argument between Rabbi Ami and Rabbi ASI and the Gamora continues with another dispute they had in regard to the correct interpretation of a particular verse that particular verse you can find in Proverbs 23 31 you'll see that number 11. it says do not look at wine when it is red when he puts his eye on the cup it goes smoothly now again the he the English doesn't do it any justice look in the Hebrew when it says at the end it goes smoothly it means that you'll walk in a straight path meaning you think you're walking in a straight path if you put look at rash you don't put your eye on it and whoever puts his eye on it goes smoothly whoever is habitually drunk all transgressions appear to him to be straight where it will always appear to be straight okay so this is the problem now in Hebrew sharim means straight right like a plane like not a p-l-a-n-e but a p-l-a-i-n a plane and even Steven thing I want to continue with the Gomorrah uh see disagree one said whoever cast his eye on his cup which means habitually drunk then all the prohibitions with those whom relations are forbidden seem to him like level me sure level ground like a plane he's unaware of the pitfalls of sin and continues walking along a twisted and dangerous path the other one said we don't know which one but the other one said whoever cast his eye on his cup the whole world seems to him like a level ground so which means that not only is such a person unconcerned by forbidden sexual relations but all other prohibitions monetary prohibitions and so forth they all seem permitted in his eyes so basically we're going with the second opinion the clear card continues he says like this in the beginning we said that all sexual uh improprieties seem to be um okay to do it's exactly what the Gamora darshan's out but in the end we saw the opinion loved it's not only and specifically to sexual relations all types of sins everything seems permitted in his eyes now he doesn't realize that it's going to cost him his life may it may not cost him his life in this world but usually heavy drinking certainly does that the wine will take him out from his soul all the way to his flesh it will consume him now we do believe in a soul body connection so you know if you are a healthy person and you're drinking or you think you're drinking uh physically you're still okay there's no question that if you are in this category of a drunkard there's no question that it's affecting your soul and therefore it will also affect your body now interesting the actual verse in Proverbs 14 12 ended with his end will be ways of death so its end its end our ways of death now if we again we spoke about the Sophie tables right go back to the beginning of the verse and take the last letter of the first three words first three word right and it says which spelled out drunkenness right so basically it's the wine that causes you to be drunk that is what's leading you to your death that's how we understand it and it's REM is Lanark it actually if there's a hint to Noah or through Noah because when it's written yayin the word Yin is you'd you'd now we can spell it out each letter each letter is a word like aleph is alephe so you have three letters Olive in the middle pay at the end so when you take the word yayan and you spell it out and you take the last letter of the word yayin of the word so you'd love darling that's you twice and none is so you take the last letter of those three letters spelled out and you come out with the Gematria Camacho means the value of the letters it actually adds up to 58 which is exactly what is 50 it actually spells out Noah's name okay and this is a hint Asia Zoo because he was the first one to become involved in this planting now natia can also mean he headed in this direction uh to lean in a certain direction so this is a very fascinating clear car so far and we're going to continue hazal say in brexit rabba and 36 7. let's see what I have on my sheet this is in number 14. you can see on number 12 and 13 we already did and basically it says like this and he drank of the wine and was drunken right it says the yeesh um he so what is the what is the measures telling us he drank without measure and was shamed you drink you don't measure it out it's going to have some very negative dire consequences said it was the same day that he planted it he became drunk and he was also humiliated on that day now we're going to talk about the word gal what does it mean and he was uncovered inside his tent the yet GAO review the set of the in the name that you know what it doesn't say what you would have thought that he was uncovered by yagail that he was just uncovered that's not what's written it says gal now what is exile galut there's a relationship between this word and what Noah did because he is the father of all mankind you know after the flood he um he brought about the exile for himself and his generations and the future Generations no like I said this is not very PC but we're all praying for meshiach right we're all doing our best with Torah mitzvahs and listen to this the 10 Northern tribes were exiled because of wine and excess and Yehuda and binyamin were exiled because of excess wine why are we making the same mistake listen to what he says this is the medrish the ten tribes were eggs out only because of wine it says in Isaiah chapter 5 verse 11 and it you'll read later in Isaiah chapter 28 7 about yahudah it says woe to them that rise off early in the morning that they may follow strong drink Isaiah is giving them rebuke okay as well as the tribes of yehudiben but these also heard through wine so you see that when he's speaking to Universe he says they also gam Ayla in shagu this is a reference to Yehuda and binyamin that they're also doing the same Pro the same thing that the earlier tribes in chapter 5 verse 11 were being rebuked for for having been too much involved with um with wine um there's also in chapter in number 17 Amos Prophet Amos chapter 6 verse 6 and 7 just to show you who drink from basins of wine he's also he lived at the time and gave rebuke to the northern tribes before the exile who drink from the basins of wine and with the first oils they anoint themselves and they feel no pain concerning the destruction of Yosef they're about to be exiled and the verse says now therefore now they shall go into Exile at the head of the Exiles and at the banquet of the haughty shall pass away Rashi says what it mean what does it mean who drink from the basins of wine because in Hebrew it says mizrakai that means like a bowl they drank from these bowls uh one opinion is they would throw their cups at each other some explained that this was the name of the vessel that had two mouths and it was long and one would drink from here and the other one from the other side and it would be cast from one's mouth to the other mouth okay it means they really had a fun time drinking basically which is not a good thing okay so let's continue in the clear car he just quoted us the Bracey drama and it goes on that what caused no asks children to be in Exile so this is we're talking about the Jewish people by the way they were thrown into exile for this sin as we just read in prophets Amos has showed him the misra kayim and we explain that um you can also find I don't know why I didn't bring it down but in Jeremiah 49 and in ovadia chapter 1 verse 2. similar ideas so he says like this perhapsekut so I actually have the yokoot in front of me it's number 18 on the source sheet it's in it's rames breshita samachalif so I I made my own translation we'll do the best we can so yes it the verse says he planted a Vineyard lichroto Sutton the satin greeted him met up with him amole and he said you know let's plant this together let's join forces be my partner I'll be your partner we're gonna have a good party the Sutton says aniviata you and me so he says back to him okay okay let's do it so right away they brought a sheep a female sheep awesome and they slaughtered it next to or upon the vineyard and then the next thing they did was brought another Corbin they brought a lion and slaughtered that so they brought one line and they slaughtered it by or next to the um the vineyard the the guests then they brought a pig a pig a hazier and also slaughtered it upon the vineyard mid name also came why did the Satan do such a thing ready for this when the when a human being when a person drinks just one cup ruach the way I understand this is he becomes like a sheep his sheepy eyes sheepy eyes let's say sleepy eyes and he becomes very Meek now to me that means it's a good thing uh lowly of spirit which is a good thing however foreign then he becomes Brazen and like a hero like a lion then he starts speaking about grandiose things about himself the armor mikamoni who's like me I'm I'm God's gift to the world right all your inhibitions man you got nothing holding you back ah what happens when they drink three or four cups then he becomes pretty soon like a pig and then he gets uh becomes like a pig it's dirty with clay and slime um he even gets dirty with Mary Gleim is a nice way of saying he urinates on or she urinates on herself okay so this is an interesting um madrish however this actually hints to the different Exiles that the Jewish people went through usually we don't count Egypt although there are those that do we talk about the four exiles which are really eight but let's just take the four so we'll take the the first one is bovill then there's Persia then there's Greece and then there's Rome but here these animals represent a certain Paradigm uh examples of the exile and he says like this first of all he quotes this idea paired up joined up to noach the Satan when he planted this Vineyard the fan of mithrila and he checked it he slaughtered in front of him first the Sheep and Ari the lion okay that's the magic we saw now the clear card explains this is like a hidden hint it's like embedded within this in a code the three EXA three of the known three of the well-known Exiles starting with Egypt even though we normally don't count it but Egypt is represented by the remember how's that I'll give you just a few verses start with Exodus chapter 8 verse 22. so it says over there that when we wanted to go out and serve Hashem in the desert we were asking Moses was asking please let my people go to serve me in the desert and we were going to do these sacrifices to God Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and he said go ahead you know go sacrifice to your Gods here in Egypt what did Moses respond this is again chapter 8 of Exodus verses 21 and 22 Moses responded to Pharaoh it's improper for us to do that you know for we will sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to our God we will sacrifice it's a question we will sacrifice the deity of the Egyptians before their eyes and they will not Stone us Rashi says which really means the abomination in the of the Egyptians meaning the idea of the Egyptians um okay it would be a hateful thing for them to see us slaughter their God in front of them wouldn't they Stone us and by the way just who should we know in Genesis 46 32 when the brothers come down to Egypt Joseph has some words of advice he says you know we want to keep Jewish and we want to marry only each other and we don't want to assimilate we have a lot of things to be proud of right we brought monotheism into the world we we know we have a mission we don't know yet we didn't reach Mount Sinai but we know we're going to be freed we want to stay um unassimilated if that's a word right so he says to them when Pharaoh is going to ask you what you do for a living this is what I want you to tell them so number one whatever he's going to tell him it will keep them uh in a separate area um and let's read it it says in Genesis chapter 46 verses 32-34 the men are Shepherds for they were always owners of livestock and their flocks in their cattle and all they have brought so they came down to Egypt and it come and if it comes to pass the Pharaoh calls you and asks you what is your occupation what are you going to say to them this is what you should say your servants have been the owners of livestock from our youth until now both we and our ancestors so that you may dwell in the land of Goshen because all shepherds are abort to the Egyptians all shepherds are considered an Abomination to the Egyptians look at Rashi at the bottom he says because the Sheep are their gods just keep this in mind there's one more verse I wanted to bring um that's good that we the Jewish people slaughtered the Egyptian gods you know deities false deities on Passover night right the firstborner killed by the way there's a whole Deep thing about the tele being the first born zodiac sign we're not going to get into that tonight all the spooky stuff but basically we were told to take their God slaughter their God and put the blood of their God on the doorpost of our house okay and you were not allowed to cook in water the Passover offering you had to put it on a spit and put it on an open fire and if you know what it's like to have millions of people cooking on a certain area meat on an open fire dripping right dripping dripping Into the Fire it's going to be a lot of smoke wafting that's a word wafting smoke throughout all of Egypt or at least that City we were in near gosh and whatnot and they would know we killed their God their supposed alleged false gods but that's what the Jews do we kill falsities we stand up for truth and we Slaughter Shecker false things okay that's why we're so loved okay next the clear card goes on and explains Gallos mitzrayim the Exile of Egypt is symbolized here remember the word he revealed himself or uncovered himself in the tent this is back to the word gullus that he that he set a precedent for the Exile number one with Egypt because they served the deity called the and what about Babylon the gullus beauville so that is represented by nebuchun netzer you'll see that in Jeremiah chapter 4 verse 7. um it says over there you actually have to read several verses before and after but in mcgillah 11 a he goes through a little bit but basically in Jeremiah chapter 4 verses 6 and 7. raise a standard design assemble do not stand for I am bring evil from the north that means from Assyria and a great destruction a lion has come up from his Thicket and the destroyer of Nations has traveled and has come forth from his place to make your land into a waste your cities would be death without inhabitant So This is Jeremiah warning them about the upcoming um Nebuchadnezzar and his army coming against us from the north and he calls him a lion okay so now we understand in the madrish that the Sutton came and offered up the lion as an offering and then the gala shlishy the third Exile is is the Roman Exile Uma so it says over there in Psalms chapter 80. oh I forgot to skip I meant to read for you McGill 11a introduced this passage which an introduction here that's from Proverbs 28 15 as a roaring lion and a ravenous bear so is a wicked ruler over a poor people a roaring lion this is wicked nebuchun netzer as it mentions about him we just read Jeremiah chapter 4 verse 7 and Rashi over there says regarding the lion that that is definitely referring to Nebuchadnezzar now we're talking about the hazir khazir is Rome the khazir is he calls it a boar right um that's how they translated here um in Psalms chapter 80 verse 14. the boar from the forest gnaw at it and the creeping things of the field graze at it basically there is something at the end of Rashi speaks about this uh beast of the forest the boar of the farces Asaf Asaf is Rome as it's written in Daniel chapter 7 verse 7. and it devoured and broke into pieces and the rest of it trampled with his feet um basically what does it mean you know the pig is different than the other non-kosher animals because it has split hooves and says see I'm kosher see I'm kosher right and so um the swine has some signs of Purity aesop2 does have some of the Merit of our forefathers in Daniel chapter 7 verse 7 the verse says and after this I saw in the visions of the night Behold a fourth Beast the fourth the final exile awesome and Dreadful and exceedingly strong and it had a huge iron teeth it ate and crushed and trampled the rest with its feet again the crushing of the feet and it was different from all the beasts that were before me and it had ten horns so Rashi says what's the ten horns yeah you might have thought this has to do with the 10 Northern tribes no it has to do with the ten different Kings who ascended the throne to Rome before Vespasian who destroyed the temple now that kind of finishes that break sheet rabba madrish now the last two lines are very important bear with me there's a thing called Oto what are Oto snails you have an alphabet right alphabet so the alpha beta so whatever like we have in gamatria there are values we have all kinds of different ways to do Camacho we talk about meaning A to Z and is replaced B and Y and replaced there's a way to do gamachu like that it's called look it up a-t-b-a-s-h there's all kinds of ways to come out here there's a thing called Oto schnield where you take the letter that follows it okay okay or the letters that came right before in this case the letters that come right after so we mentioned the very beginning that the Satan came and joined up with Nach in order to be a partner with him in getting drunk and getting the vineyard going and all that which entailed as we spoke about the different offerings so the word anavim anavi means grape or grapes in plural it's a partner the grape itself is a partner with the Islamic mem alif lamid that is the official name of the Satan okay we'll call him samach men for short but you have the psalmic men in the all of lamid and if you take a look I have number 25 the very letters right what follows the psalmic is an iron what follows the man is a nun what follows the aleph is a bet what follows the lamid is a mem so you basically have right the word anavim the Otis partnering up pairing up let's say with the psalmic mem aleflaman and the Clear Car Ends by saying REM is this is a very proper and well thought out a hint that shows us that the Satan joins forces joined up through the planting of the grapes okay so basically I'm going to stop here I want to just give a bracha we're starting a new year we encourage
