wow thank you very much now I started live streaming I'm actually just going live right now also what are you doing it's a new it's a new thing I'm that I'm I'm basically learning I'm you know being me just on video and it's just uh it's good for the workflow it's good to get more stuff out you know sure that's what you got to do it's just available for people so less people see it because where you going now I'm saying it's not like professional content they could get boring or whatever l i see a lot of people try different things and they give up so fast they think that the guy that got 10,000 followers got it overnight no yeah that's not how it works 10 years for it yeah yeah I've been making videos for about 8 nine years I think thank you [Music] H Hol holistic like I ride my everywhere I always take the stairs [Music] yeah yeah yeah [Music] you [Music] oh you [Music] spe [Music] what's up you here for lunch and learn um yeah awesome most lunch so we'll eat some lunch and we'll learn [Music] something what do you want to learn [Music] about oh the May yeah maybe we should put a tablecloth here or we could even just clear this and sit here it be a good idea to do that way h [Music] oh [Music] spe [Music] it's very small you fill from the machine [Music] oh you know know [Music] hello hello and welcome just getting [Music] started fore [Music] I want to say live what a name here here anywhere anywhere you like I think these these taller chairs are a lot more comfortable in my opinion oh we're recording um we're recording me that's okay okay all right I'll be out but uh it would be awesome if you're in it also you know I don't think I don't think that the camera set up anyways in enough way it's not picking hear me though that's good it's live somewhere yeah it's live Facebook YouTube Hey Okay um twitch is the new thing yeah so that's what I always thought and recently I was speaking to a friend so I I've been like making like media content for many years and he was saying like you just have to start live streaming you know usually I spend a lot of hours like scripting and figuring out like what to say and then filming it and then editing it he's like if you live stream well one of the one of the things that like convinced me to start doing it he's like look if you live stream chances are you'll have content already and then you could clip it together you want you want to be in it see how is anyone watching right now well if I yeah there's probably a few people there's prob maybe four people five people I don't know I never watch the live stream really but I might cuz after after you finish the live stream on YouTube Sav it sa you can watch it after so I kind of if it's an interesting person skip the boring bits you know right right the intro you know yeah so I'm I'm not typically so exciting that like my lifestyle is good for live streaming but it's but you know it's it's good to put out more yish kite in the world if people will watch other people uh you know play games where they're shooting zombies like someone even if there's even if there's one person who will join us learning Tira like that should be available come acqu by accident and who who knows what happening right exe this week with all the in town it's uh soly you can see that it's never a bad thing to spread more in the world right I have two brothers and two sisters what's your last name Goodman I'm a Goodman Goodman from Manchester England my brothers are in LA in Australia my sister's is in Florida do you have a brother in a over here oh wow now now I can see it last night I was there he such a good guy your brother I'm sure you are also no he he's a good guy yeah he's going back to Ukraine in a couple of weeks win camp now he goes to Ukraine twice a year to be the camp that's right yeah and so my sister in Florida and Argentina and who what's your sister's last name in Florida uh I'm fromi they moved uh couple of years back only uh where where in Florida are they they're in Cooper City now working on my uncle my uncle AI is in Cooper City and they're working what's last name and no no no he used to work for Ander he has his own thing now same last name as me beautiful it's a Goodman and um he he's only coming on Sunday for some reason but yeah they're well you'll see some family some yeah yeah you know um so there's I don't know do you have any specific uh like topic that that speaks to you or something that interests you no and that's kind of the problem I never really had such a in learning I never really understood it people so many times you got to learn the it's a I'm like I don't really have gmak in it right they're like no but this one is gmak too you know but this one is is different I'm saying it's gmak and I've tried it it's like to I just don't really I don't hate it I just don't get the G smack in it I just I um I don't know if you can install in someone in learning in someone who's just not I mean why that way or what whatever it is can anyone like can any Jewish person be like educated or program to have a learning is it just not everyone's cup of tea I it's a good question so you know but don't worry I don't I don't hate it I'm okay to sit and learn for a bit but it's right um I think I think that that you could develop a can you give it to someone else that I don't know but I think I don't know if like the using the term like oh it's a to influence someone to come learn alone it's not going to if any I I feel like it might be like it might be counterintuitive because you know like that almost I feel excluded now cuz I don't feel like it's kmak and you're telling me it's kak so it's supposed to be if you tell me come sit and learn because that's what we're supposed to do in a way that might be better than telling me that it's Gish exactly what it you know applies in the yeah if you tell me it's supposed to be gmak and it feels like it's not then I feel like I'm doing something wrong or yeah to good learning you know right so like thinking out loud I think at least for me I think it's true to say that a lot of the is it hot already the lasagna seems to be pretty hot you want one too um not if I'm I can't eat and talk at the same time so I'll have one after thank you oh it's like pizza that's what it is I thought it's lasna it looks like there's D on the bottom like interesting nice or um so yeah the week's para is talise so I guess you're interested a little bit in the para I just started learning yesterday um from like the last official well one of the last official like speeches that the rbit gave on par the re starts saying how the beginning of this week's par and the beginning of par starts in the same way right Etc and over here it says and then it tells us who is right that's the first so the point is it starts in with the same way and so first of all this is the re is saying this under the premise that we already all understand and believe that the name of each paraa has significance right it contains a tremendous significance to it um although simply you can just say oh yeah the name of every paraa is like the first uh you know the first few words they they choose one and and they made it the name you know but it was it was done by Min which is T and everything in Tyra this is super important thing to understand um to to think about when learning and to understand and and appreciate and maybe have a gmak and anything that the Reb says you have to already like look at it in the same way that the Reb is looking at it that t means it's eternally relevant it means that there's something in this in TOA in any detail of T and in every detail of T that teaches me something not just in general but right now so it's not just a teaching it's a teaching that's relevant and it's not just relevant to anyone it's relevant to me and it's not just relevant to me and certain times but it's relevant to me now that's every part of right that's why the re always quoted is the same word as as as a lesson right it's not just a teaching that or a lesson that I'm that I'm learning but it's a lesson that I'm taking into life and that I need to take into life so the Reb says obviously the name of the paraa contains something a significant lesson but then from there the reev then goes on and asks by the way just a spoiler alert I don't know like I didn't finish the with my friend so even if even if I'll succeed in getting you curious as to the answer um I only learned like the beginning of the answer but the Reb says it seems it seems like from the content of the para that it would have been more fitting that's the opposite of a SP the time you couldn't summon the ending even if you wanted to but no it's true spoiler alert of the ending of how how I'm going to shut up is with me not resolving whatever I'm about to say yeah yeah so so the re says that the which is called the second of the T would have made more sense to call it it would have made sense to call that and this would have made more sense to call right why wait you're saying right so why well the is not about to talk it's not the beginning but it's very much about and also the of are much more oh you're already telling me part of the answer you're telling me why it makes sense the way that it is no just something that comes to mind I don't this is how the is going to go right are much more prais worthy the of are discussed in this right and the of are not really discussed right although the the first thing that the Reb said is that the subject matter of is not so much about it's more about the M right and the subject matter of is very much about so it would have made more sense to emphasize the concept of to in other words the the result of's life right being who he was he saved his family right was saved by hasem from the mble yeah that you hearing that peeping no no I'm just I'm thinking off to the distance focus on anything no I didn't hear the beeping but now that you mention it I'm only going to hear the beeping oh I'm sorry about that then no now I hear it too it's like a high frequency but not high enough that like it should be excluded I didn't hear it until you mentioned it yeah um anyways but yeah that's that's the beginning of the answer and okay whatever I just because we were talking about that I I figured uh we'll we'll mention that but to to have a full thing to so we're at least able to walk away with a with a lesson I think so either I'll give you guys options either we could do today's portion ofish which is short yeah and then like it's actually not so short but it's it it won't take us longer than than 10 minutes um 10 15 minutes if we discuss it um and the value of that is that of course we know the rebba wants us to learn Every Day's portion ofes so simply by sitting and learning that we'll be connecting in a very deep way and opening ourselves up for tremendous um or we could uh discuss like I could I could share with you a that I find fascinating or we could do both you know today what happens in is a little bit dramatic basically um this is the story where where y who at this point had gone blind right tells his son as who he favored right we know that loved asov more than yov yeah about if he knew I was really going on right right how to how to understand his blindness how level he knew knew I mean if you want to go into that we could go into that also no it's just let's keep the flow so so in today's I'm saying the The Simple Story Goes that he went ahead and asked asov to go fetch him some game in other words he was a hunter go get me you know something something nice to eat and then I'll be able to give you a br which by the way that itself is is already interesting like why why do you need me to feed you in order to be able to give you a and also the question people has is how can you eat food that was hunted rather than um I take the more rational approach personally and say they kept some her but you know not everything and he ate hunted food but some people try to really get the way around to like ASA was so good at hunting he could take a and and it would just but little skeptical about that so I mean that's a very good question that you're asking I I don't think I ever even came up with that question possibly because I'm always I I you know I learn it every year inside and the words of the PK are uh now this is what he's asking him which means the way it translates it here is sharpen your weapons tell your sword and your bow go out to the field and trap for me again he's not saying to to kill it he's saying trap it interesting and then to make it in other words of of course he's asking him Slaughter it properly in accordance with he doesn't tell him like kill it for me he says trap it for me trap it and turn it into mat interesting right and the RB actually this I like this a lot because they interpolate in the trans in the translation you see the letters in bold that's the literal translation of the p and then the rest is like is is a is a a collection of the explanation of the p with Rashi plus what the Reb says on it to to clarify matters even further and what it adds here is be sure to trap only an ownerless deer a hefer one right so that you don't serve me something that's stolen and to sharpen the slaughtering knife so that you Slaughter the animal in accordance with the's law that's why he's telling him sharpen it right if ASA is a hunter you don't you don't need the the the the elderly man in bed to call that um just for perspective to tell the Hunter what to do in order to hunt of course but he's telling him sharpen it CU he's saying sharpen it according to that there shouldn't be any Nicks or anything like that um but the point is he also he was asking him specifically to serve him something in gmas because as we know and and this was also spoken about in last week's paraa it takes some physical thing in order to draw down the highest light in order to draw down God's light right in today's Tanya and yesterday's Tanya speaks about how the physical act of a Mitzvah is like the button that we push in order to cause a superal union as the cabalists call it but as it's translated into English and then when that happens there's more light that that is drawn into the world right into the world means into your personal life and into your personal life is good for the people around you and basically into the world right when you're using something physically you're you're revealing that that physical thing and all of physicality is really God's so that's why he's asking him for food in order to bless him um and yeah you know how the story goes right and then Yak yeah goes it looks like you're in a rush so I don't want to I don't want to keep you against your will no M it's just that my sister from out out of town with a husband and kids are in King Pizza now want to go see them oh but you know I've got they'll probably stay there a while now you got a pizza appetizer before before more pizza no I don't plan on eat there we actually had a lot of kingst and pizza here last night you every Wednesday night you do tons of pies and lasagna and the zi the stuffed and then I went on onto wow you were eating a lot last night huh was yeah we got to eat food look we got to we got to be involved in go in the right way I know I've always just it's always just gone straight through me very quick I got I gained a lot of weights and St out here I also go to the gym oh okay well before you go I'll tell you something beautiful and short about about y's blindness right so like you mentioned that there's there's different opinions as to what that means like how clueless was he about what ASA was up to and you know um and what does it mean that he was blind yeah so so it actually is explained that he became blind says he became blind from the smoke of the of the offerings of asa's wives that they were offering toar yeah right but the question then becomes you have a question on that cuz this is a question that you can think of if you're really thinking about it and not the smoke [Music] from why was he hanging around them I don't know why well that's a good question well they were in his home cuz ASA brought these women into into his vicinity but the question is how come nobody else was affected by it right so maybe if you want to blend the maim you can say well together with the Angel's tears plus right from Thea plus the smoke Etc there's a few things that you can say but the Reb says that basically being a sadic to only wanted to only see good so the smoke of the Z caused that he shouldn't be able to see the wrong that ASA was doing yeah which also fits beautifully with the fact like any any any father or mother in a way is blinded to The Faults of their of their child right because they they see their child is like an extension of thems um but over here in this case because of the smoke because as's wives were doing couldn't tolerate to see something of AAR so therefore he went blind right we know that our forefathers were Mera they were a Divine Chariot it's called right just like your car hopefully doesn't have a mind of its own but you in full control of it you unless you have a test it's its job is to drive you where you need to get so the a so the O were in 247 in the mode of full expression of godliness of divinity like exactly what we do when we're doing a Mitzvah right exactly what we're doing right now right now we're an expression of of godliness we're really expressing who we really are sitting and learning inside of a inside of a b inside of a basic canis um but for the aice this was a this was a non stop thing so that's why they're they're they get to be called this marova right and that's what we know especially that one knew it's known that his whole thing was he was the most um like the separate from the world and like he he never D think he was he had the least amount of to the physical world thing that's why they compare like to the to the market who stayed Place everyone to him like he couldn't the smoke would have made him blind whereas maybe ones like um right although an interesting thing that I actually just like realized this year when I was learning it yeah when tells don't go out of don't go out of right because he was a carbon right so to speak he was brought to he wasn'ted but he was offered to hasem so he's a I think the is he's a perfect unblemished offering to so says stay in this Holy Land that's where that's where like that's where you should stay it says over there not that he can't tolerate leaving the Holy Land which is how I always thought it was but it's that the the outside of the Holy Land the land doesn't deserve to have y in it basically is what it says the land can't tolerate which is a very interesting thing so yeah on the one hand you see over here that because of y's um aversion to to AAR of course all the OB had it but by he was much less involved he was much more Sanctified was quite involved with Abu dealt with it Abu went and found people who their whole life was about abar their whole life was given to forces of impurity and whatever nonsense that they made up or that had some legitimacy but they were ascribing they were deifying it and ab was going and convincing them out of it but y we don't see that so much we don't see that he's traveling and doing that but we do see that he was even more accomplished than abam and that his accomplishments were they they they were more Everlasting in that when AB dug certain Wells later they were clogged up and until y unclogged them or and Y later unclogged them and Y later dug Wells of his own and those Wells were not clogged why and the re explains the difference that being the level of right you can for this context I would translate as inspiration and motivation like he he was working he was he was bringing the he was bringing the May to places that don't have it right like he was bringing he was being right like you're saying he's he's out on and he's bringing it elsewhere but the problem with that is that it could dry up because it needs the source what did a step further than his father with guro with discipline was not run on inspiration but find dig out the well find the Wellspring the The Source beneath yeah of course that's as an outcome of being the son of abam you know so then afterwards had the balance precisely okay don't forget to make a oh on camera this awesome is it live good yeah yeah aming people watch Facebook YouTube only I need to figure out a way to get it on Instagram I don't think it goes autoa on Instagram no I know there is a way to live stream on Instagram but like right now I'm using a program that sends it to to to Facebook and YouTube and ttch it doesn't do Instagram um also know live stream to Instagram simultaneously please if you have TT follow and I don't it's pretty Progressive for this is a UTC clock wow that's a beautiful one I'm in watches so you know oh my brother some pizza I us to watch wow this is so nice that you have the little one here what to do it's another clock oh they're just showing the same time um what does it stand for United um no Universal I don't know it's basically the C before the T like universal clock time or something like that basically it's for Pilots to be able to set their clock against this or to have two whatever for me simply it's just to have two different time zones so what do you have against against England Tri T meantime is London it's actually a small yeah right and every time zone ismt plus or minus however much right so that's kind of what England has got going on for it all the time zones measure some of my some of my favorite watches are are the are the world timers you know the ones that really will show you yeah so my brother-in-law here is that if you have Instagram I'll show show yeah maybe I'm in touch with him maybe I know him um T called AMD watch is his thing could be could be that word I don't know him by name can get them a few for a price wait so what do you have here AMD on Instagram that's the what account yeah yeah um so you got what you got Israel time and and so my company is called highend 7 no actually so this is an automatic watch this is this runs on battery okay so I actually need a new battery I'm going to replace this quartz battery but usually I kept it to Israel yeah be in Mah mode in in another step yeah it's pretty cool yeah I became pretty good with time zones I always uh I always go like traveling a lot so yeah okay I'm going to keep learning out loud you're welcome to sit and listen I'm going to do today's fish okay thank you fromma so um we ended off yesterday with AI with his uh you know his group of people coming and asking to basically also make an oath with them just like did that they'll only treat each other with kindness so now continuing off right in the middle of that uh of that dialogue between them Isaac agreed to their proposal he prepared them a feast and they ate and drink in the words of the now they got up early in the morning and made an oath to each other Isaac then sent them on their way and they departed from him in peace I read that see if there's any rashies we got to learn um no not just yet oh this is what we were just talking about some some more incidents with these Wells on that very day Isaac's servants came and told him about the well that they had dug and they said to him we have found water also an interesting thing is that it says that they were jealous of because of his great wealth and a is the word in the T and Rashi explains that AA means one work AA means like many different things in other words he had many Enterprises going on and what you see is that him being settled in one place and I guess his mode as a person was one of more of of like of being settled that allowed for him to be involved in so many different things versus sometimes you know it's it was it was a thought that a friend and I were were talking about sometimes we could like try to get ourselves involved in so many things and run so many operations but then we're very scattered within so it's hard to to keep them up so being being more settled was capable of uh you see of having many many things going on one of them was well diing Isaac's servants came and told him about the well that they had dug and they said to him we have found water boots water resistance These Boots are supposed to be so he named The Well sh from the word sh which means an oath the name of the city was therefore not changed but it was redesignated again as well of the oath this Remains the Same to this very day see yeah same place of the that named by the Arcada you know what is it's a great game people play it online sorry but to do this you go on the website they drop you in a random place on on the globe um you can only use um the street view thing to go around the street oh that's so cool You've Got 2 minutes to figure out where you're you are in the world and you you put a pin on the map where you think you are wow and it tells you how close you were to the correct answer so yesterday that's I would do that on Twitch yeah that's cool do people that on twich people they do it live quite a bit yeah that's so fun so yesterday I feel like I'd be so bad at that game but like that would you know have to know how to look for Clues you know the side of the street the the cars are around how good they are the kind of terrain you normally get what can you see street signs continent you want the signs yeah but like the license plate you can't and other things so that's so yesterday I was playing it I I play it every day like three time you can play like three times a day for for nothing unless you pay you can get more but I have three times a day they put me some on the globe I figure out where it is so yesterday I have all the places on in the world on on this week's par they put me in no way yeah that's awesome that's so cool yeah was great what did it look like just like Israel I didn't actually yeah I knew I was somewhere in Israel I didn't get right I guess like Nat or something but it's cool like everywhere on the planet that's awwesome me in in paring South America yeah wow Ireland it's good stuff again it's quite it's quite you said it first things to Stoll yes good man good to meet you good to meet what's your name Ellie Weiss from where ell Weiss from Miami I live here now yeah I've been there quite quite a bit Yeah in Miami some boat tours there met some manatees in the canal that was ni yeah my sister you a bike forward uh one day I dress like a you dress like you bik but it's going it's a it's a goal you know it's happening oh you're saying you you want to you know how to ride a bike and you want to buy one yeah all right very soon then thank you call to Happy [Music] Thanksgiving okay so we have some rashies Shiva he called The Well Shiva right by the because their Covenant consisted of an oath that they took and now moving forward if you recall the beginning of this par we review the fact that got married to RKA and we're told that was 40 years old now asav turns 40 years old and gets married in the year 2148 when asov was 40 years old he married yudis the daughter of the and bumas the daughter of a the so these two women says was 40 years old wow was compared to a pig swine as it says in the in toim I believe that is yeah toim um I don't know what that's something I don't know I'm not going to I don't want to risk translating it inaccurately but something about the theer from the forest or from the maybe it also means like like next to River like which makes sense cuz it's m the pig when he's laying down he by the way this is why there are many non- kosher animals but this is the reason why in Jewish culture and in popular culture that knows anything about Judaism there is a specific emphasis on the pig being like really not Kosher like we really don't like the pig even though we also don't eat shark you know but you find Pig being like the quintessential not kosher food that's like the big deal how come because there's there's the character of pig that it is it is the singular animal that that has this characteristic physically and then what that means also um like spiritually or even even uh yeah what it means spiritually speaking I'll call it matter of the spirit what what about it the pig when he is when he is laying down P it sticks out its hoofs or Hooves might be how you say that word I don't know the hoof it's it's it's feet look I am pure I'm a pure animal I'm a kosher animal because it has split hooves as a kosher animal must but we know that it's not a kosher animal because kosher animal must have two signs one is that it has split hooves and the other is that yes oh thank you whoever that is on I can't see the name on YouTube um but thank you for being here and I'm assuming you're subscribed and thank you for translating from toim and bringing us to Source yeah toim that's pay so it's the it's it's the 14th verse in the 80th chapter of and the translation of of is the pig from the ravages of Israel very interesting cool translation thank you for that um um let us know also maybe where you where you got that translation from um unless that's the way you translate it which is fine also that's cool so as is compared to a pig why we're about to see but first about the pig the pig shows its its feet it shows its hoofs and that was a third way of of uh pronouncing the word Hooves or hoofs or or hoofs I don't know um and they they are indeed split but it doesn't have the second animal the second sign for a kosher animal which is that it chews its cut that's an internal one that one it's not showing it's only showing something externally saying look I'm pure but really what's going on in the inside is not pure right so so too people who are who are like uh robbers and and and uh I don't have a translation of Rashi here so I'm doing my best to just explain it in general people who who are basically fakers and tricksters and they show as if that they are they they kosher and honest and good so this is what as did as resembled a pig in this way for 40 years as was extremely immoral he was basically trapping we know that he was a hunter right but he wasn't only trapping animals he was trapping women he was hunting down any woman that he wanted and stealing her from her husband married women uh Wom and and just taking them you know just like a wild animal and when he turns 40 he says my father at 40 years old as we learned at the beginning of the par got married at 40 years old so I'm also going to do that so basically he's trying to show that he's this uh you know uh righteous man who takes marriage seriously and takes uh takes life seriously when that really wasn't the case and that also explains to you what we just learned about why pig is like the quintessential not kosher food because this characteristic is is a terrible one um for the people who might be uh Associates with the people who have this character and also of course and mainly for the person themselves who might be living a life where they're totally fooling themselves where they're trying to be something on the outside when they're really not that on the inside um well the truth is that's not so much fooling themselves that's more trying to fool others that's what really the idea here fooling themselves is another thing lamid moving onwards we just read that now these women even though as was trying to show how great he was by getting married to them these women these wives were spiritually rebellious toward Isaac and Rebecca and caused them great anguish for among other things they unabashedly served idols and as we'll find out soon that the smoke from the offerings that these two wives of asov would bring to Idols damaged y's eyesight and that's what we're about to learn starting the next chapter um 27 but before that rashi's comment on that they distressed they were they they caused them a lot of distress to or they were they were of a rebellious Spirit to to all all of what they did caused it seems even here that you can translate it was to cause tremendous uh pain why because they sered now starting 27 23 years after es married in the year 2171 had grown old despite the fact that he was blessed by God with Good Health and Longevity the smoke from asa's wives idolatrous incense offerings gradually dimmed his eyesight in addition his eyesight had already become dim then because of the ministering Angel's tears that had fallen into his eyes when he was bound on the altar 86 years prior to this if you remember or as you surely know might know or maybe don't because I don't I don't know everybody who's here but the the incident known as the AA right The Binding of Isaac when hasem tested AB with offering his son to him and this was a very moving um and Powerful sight that even though of course he was not to actually be sacrificed the very fact that AB was willing to follow hashem's orders unquestioningly and that y as well knowing very well what was happening was willing to go through with it caused the angels to cry and those tears went in in y's eyes and and that already affected him all this was arranged by Divine Providence so that he would be deceived into blessing Jacob rather than asov as will now be recounted right so of course the fact that his eyesight was going was like everything is Divine Providence very attentive uh detailed from Hashem Hashem made this uh very attentively he summoned his Elder son as and said to him my son and he answered here I am um just because we mentioned which is hashem's attention to detail in in all of uh creation which is constant constant Divine Providence just want to read to you from I think it's today's no it's not today say y tomorrow mentions and also um two days ago I I'll read you two days ago it says that superal Providence brings every Jew to his dwelling place in order to strengthen the practice of Judaism and disseminate the study of T and when one plows and sews things grow so for example this is a very good example very easy example if you are landing on this video and you're Jewish it's very clear why you're here and please stick around and if you're landing on this video and you're not Jewish don't think that you're excluded from this just because it says a Jew this is a book mainly for Jewish people it is of Jewish teachings but God's Divine Prov Ence extends to every detail of the world at all times and of course the you know the human being is at the top of the food chain so to speak and everything about your life regardless of whether or not you're Jewish is ordained by Divine Providence so as to facilitate you fulfilling your mission in life and of course for a Jew the Jewish mission in life is to do the mitz to study the tah and that's what we do on this channel so but everyone is welcome everyone's very very welcome now further on so he says he calls his Elder son ASA who we know he actually loved more and says to him my son and he answered him here I am Rashi says that his eye sight became dimmed and we already we already explained why so I'll just read the Rashi inside very quickly he points out that it was from this smoke of's wives another opinion or a further explanation is is usually the way that the re prefer to see these things all all all all of the opinions are true and they all can be combined right a further explanation is from what occurred with the Angels by Thea and a further explanation is that his eyesight dimed so that he would end up doing what we're about to find out which is giving the even though his intention was to bless as at first Isaac said see now I have grown old I am now 123 years old I do not know the day of my death says Rashi I don't know the day of my death he brings the opinion from the tal actually he brings a statement from so says an interesting thing that when a person reaches the age of like he's he's he's getting close to the age that his parents were when they passed he should begin to first word that comes to mind to Translate Y is worry but I don't know if that's really what he's saying but the point is he should concern himself with the fact that his time might be coming soon five years before and five years after so of course if a person reaches if a person's reaches the age that his parents passed he still for another 5 years is concerned that that you know basically over this period of 10 years it makes sense that that would be the time that he passes as well and was now 123 and as we said and he said maybe I'm going to pass in accordance with this ruling which of course was was taught many many many years later but as we know our forefathers studied trra and kep already from before um and he's saying in accordance with this I know the day of my death meaning I don't know if it's going to correspond to my mother's age or my father's age and now I'm 123 that's 5 Years From uh my mother's age third verse in chapter 27 Oh that's already the next one so therefore now please sharpen your weapons your sword and the arrows for your bow for your bow go out to the field and Tra me some ownerless game be sure to trap only an ownerless deer so that you do not serve me something stolen and to sharpen the slaughtering knife so that you Slaughter the animal in accordance with the terror's laws just before he was asking right and we mentioned this and then prepare for me some Delicacies to my liking and bring them to me so that I may eat so that I may Grant you my soul's blessing before I die oh wow time really uh passed quickly I was going to go to m 2:00 um oh it's almost 2:30 okay let's let's do this quick from up your here I apologize that I'm not uh home yet okay right he was of course telling asav that you should go and and fetch me some some game and then it properly fine the drama music because y gives this instruction to asov and his wife Rifka had been listening while Isaac was speaking to his son ASA and ASA went out to the field intending to trap some ownerless game as his father had stipulated because he doesn't want to be served something stolen but was also nevertheless prepared to bring home stolen game if no ownerless deer can be found so now when ASA left Rebeca said to her son Jacob I just heard your father speaking to your brother ASA saying bring me some game and prepare delicacy so that I may eat and bless you in God's presence and with his approval before I die so now my son heed my words in regard to what I command you your father provided in our marriage contract that I may take two kid goats from the flock every day if need be therefore go to the flock and bring me from their two Choice kid goats since today is for is the 14th of Nissan B that's the day before Passover and that's when we bring the Passover offering and I will make Delicacies out of the other one of them so okay since today is the 14th of Nissan we will use one for the Passover offering and I will make Delicacies out of the other one of them such as your father likes for the meat of a kid goat can be made to taste like deer meat so even though of to trap deer and make it as I like Rifka says I know how to prepare it as he likes even if it's not deer you will then bring them to your father and he will eat so that he will bless you before he dies yakob said to his mother Rifka right as we know yakob was not one who the ter describes as a hunter which Rashi explains ASA being a hunter that he would trap his father with his words he would pretend to be something that he wasn't similar to what we just learned about the pig Yakov was is was yakob was a sincere honest person this was not in his uh you know he's not looking to be an actor he's not looking to be an imposter he's not looking to pretend to be someone he's not and here his mother is asking him go in and basically pretend to be asov and get those bris so Yak said to his mother Rifka thinking obviously he's G he's going to do as his mother says but he has a he has a different issue yakob says to his mother Rifka but my brother ASA is a hairy man while I'm a smooth skinned man perhaps my father father will touch me and then he will regard me as an impostor and will bring a curse upon myself not a blessing in other words he's going to he's going to know his mother said to him let your curse be upon me my son just heed my words and go and bring them to me now just really quickly what kind of what kind of motivation is that yak being who he is how could he be fine with his mother taking the curse like okay he's worried that his father's going to find out that he's tricking him and instead of the blessing this whole plan is going to backfire and he's going to curse me and Rifka is like okay no problem so I'll I'll take the curse on me and then as we're about to find out he went and got them and brought them to his mother and his mother prepared Delicacies to his father's liking in other words the conversation ended there he was like okay I'm convinced I'll go do it when his mother takes responsibility that she says the curse will be on me why would he want the curse to go on his mother you would think that he would still say like no absolutely not I don't want the curse on me I don't want the curse on you and the answer is in short that because she was willing to receive this curse he knew that this is a matter of life and death he knew that this is something that Rifka is willing to to be cursed my mother is willing to to to really go this far in order for this to happen it's something that I that I need to do I need to listen to her and get this done that's why the conversation ended right there so he didn't think anymore that the curse would actually be on his mother when he saw her willingness that's when he knew okay this is something that's very serious and we're going to we're going to be successful so Rifka then took her older son asa's clean clothes which had belonged to nimra asav was jealous of them he coveted them or coveted them if that's how you say that word and then KET is is the pronunciation and he killed nimr to acquire them so if you're ever wondering who killed nimra it was Asa these clothes were with her in the house because Asa did not trust his wives to prevent his wives from stealing them he kept them at his mother's house she put them on her younger son yak and placed the kid goat skins on his arm and on the smooth part of his neck she then handed to her son Yak the Delicacies and the bread she had prepared he came to his father and said father and he replied here I am who are you my son Yak answered his father in in an interesting way he said it is is I asov your firstborn he didn't really want to lie and of course this is still considered uh Hally speaking uh when you're saying something to get someone to think something when that's really not what you mean but you know what they think that's still considered a lie but he was doing his best to still even in the situation that he was in where he needed to to go and and pretend and trick he was doing his best to be as honest as possible so he was saying it is I in other words it's who I am Yakov and asov is your firstborn but of course simply it's I as of your firstborn since the verb to be is not articulated in Hebrew yakov's answer had two meanings I am as of your firstborn and it is I ASA is your first born Jacob intended his father to understand his words according to the first meaning but in order to not technically be guilty of lying he phrased his reply so that it could be understood the second way because in Hebrew it really makes sense either way continuing to pose as as yob said I have done as you told me yob intended his father to understand this statement to mean that he had fulfilled y's instruction to asov to prepare him a meal in order to not be technically guilty of lying Yak phrased the statement so that it could be understood I have done many things that you have told me to do he continued please arise and be seated at the table and partake of my game so that you may grant me your Soul's blessing maybe if I should start playing that game on Twitch I should ask people to partake of my game Isaac asked his son how did you find it so quickly my son he replied because God your God arranged it to happen this way for me that was obviously not an error but it's uh this way of speaking about God of like recognizing that it was God who hooked him up was already a red flag to Y as we'll see y's already suspicious that it's not not his son ASA because Asa did not speak that way Isaac asked his son how Isaac said to himself this seems out of character for ASA he never mentions God nor does he usually address me so politely even though ASA did respect his father he was still more of a Rian and the way that he spoke was not in the most ever respectful manner he therefore said to Jacob please come close and let me touch you my son are you really my son ASA so yakob Drew close to his father is who touched him and said the voice the manner of speaking is the voice of Yakov but the hands are the hands of Asa he did not recognize them because his arms were hairy like the arms of his brother ASA so he proceeded to prepare the bless him he said so you really are my son ASA and he replied I am again saying I am who I am but intending that he understands yes I'm then said serve me so that I may partake of my son's game so that I may Grant you my soul's blessing yakob served him and he ate and he brought him wine and he drank see the importance here of I'm thinking I don't know if that's what it was but the point is that through the physical meal now Y is able to channel blessing to pass it to Yakov his father Isaac said to him please come close and kiss me my son he came close and kissed him and Y smelled the fragrance of his garments although goat skins right remember he was wearing those goat skins that belonged to nimr that ASV was jealous of coveted or coveted and killed nimr for and hid from his wives um and they usually have an unpleasant odor in this case they miraculously took on the fragrance of an apple orchard like the Garden of Eden y blessed him with 10 blessings as follows and they're they're tomorrow in tomorrow's portion ofes but this verse is the last one and it ends he said see my son's fragrance is already like the fragrance of a field that God has blessed this indicates that you are fit to receive my blessings and then the blessings are recorded tomorrow not so long but very long in quality and asov then comes and some more chaos ensues as we will God willing make a video on tomorrow as well Friday are pretty hectic days um all right I'm going to do the rest inside like I mean we finished it we finished the in English the explanation of it but I'm just going to learn it inside quickly and we'll see you again soon
