I was studying the songs you know we're
in the haod it's so hard before puim to
be in theod but I remind you what I said
last week which is that there is so much
CER between puim and PES at the end of
the cycle with the beginning of the
cycle and after we have learned from the
whole year and all the we have learned
what SIM is Sim is not ha but Sim is a
joy of knowing clearly that is in charge
when you know when you have something
very heavy and you drop it in all the
stories ofid you know that you go into
an aala and you carry your bag and the B
aala tells you put it down you say no
it's heavy and he says Yeah but whether
you hold it or whether you put it down
it's aala that is carrying it so you can
put it down and relax so this is
something which gives us s that's how
they that's how they makees Mas that's
how the Magno speaks that's how all of
them speak and after explaining
therefore that now that we got to an
understanding that even though Hashem is
hidden but he's in charge and he's doing
everything and we are close to him we
begin again because a human being is
only a human being and we're going to
get to PES where we're going again to be
strengthened by open Miracles which we
need desperately now and afterwards the
whole year slowly but surely we're
learning to see Hashem with the right
glasses with uh hidden behavior of a
more
hidden and we get to a point where by us
it's not hidden anymore because we see
that even though it's not exactly the
same definition as open Miracles Asim
glim but it is very galou when when even
though it's so sad and so many tragedies
but it could have been much much worse
etc etc
okay so then I was looking as a n which
is at the end and I'm always moved when
I
say that we have because means that we
don't even realize that it's such a
miracle K who is huge who is everything
who is infinite who is eternal with
everything is interested in small in
small human beings like us
that where that who is so so ex
everything is interested in a small
human being like a speck like nothing we
are not interested in every Ant and the
difference between us and is much much
more than we and an ant so when we
say and here we have at the end of the
said there where where you don't even
have to stay if you can't a woman after
birth somebody over tired she doesn't
have to stay because it's not like
P which is M an obligation to stay but
we have n with beautiful songs one after
the other so I thought that extra next
week we'll do something more basic
perhaps as well for example P Etc but
let's see what these things that we
think at the end like b b and those that
are in Isel which is all of our group
it's let's see what it's all talking
about and all these things happen on P
which is so interesting okay so when we
have I don't know if you have it but
even if you don't have it let's
see okay in other words it means om om
is is H is the idea of courage and it
means as well it's you make you do an MA
mat you do an effort it's something
which is very very strong the intensity
of something the intensity of a ball
which is very very light the intensity
of the way you you DAV all this
is of your strength if later you showed
it in a way of Miracles Pelle when we
speak about uh uh Naz here in parat naso
we speak about Pelle Pelle is
extraordinary it's an extra amount of
strength no who doesn't touch wine who
doesn't touch this who doesn't touch
that Etc he's trying to be almost like
an angel he fights his yet in a way
which is unbelievable
so means the the intensity of your
strengths if later you have shown it in
a way of Pelle
at the head of of all the now a is
called because it's a cycle of theim and
and is calleded because a v we have a v
tonight when everybody gets together
madim is when we are getting together
either for daving or for eating Coran
PESA or or or whatever yes Neta you have
elevated every
time you have shown your strength in an
unbelievable way when PES why because
it's the biggest missing gluing that we
have had until mesiah type will be
bigger that's what it means that there
will be mainly that h of of mesiah more
than even
p and the head of all the other you have
elevated you elevate or you
count what does it mean you have
revealed
yourself who
is it's like M it's Oriental it's East
who is
thei I think it's a no I have a friend
whose family name is
masan okay and masil aan is the second
name that one gives always to Abu and as
well is AB ainu because he came
from which is very much on the
East where when did you reveal yourself
to Abu in the middle of the night P very
very interesting okay in other words to
the mid
in
of which is
the this was in the middle of the night
pretty frightening and everything
according to some this was the first
thing he had even before according to
others etc etc so we have
even in yes once or twice that AR is
called yeah the men from the East
okay so it's very very interesting okay
uh that's the first thing now so what
are we talking about we in the first one
we're talking about something that
happened in the middle of the night and
we're going to go through a whole amount
of things which are written in a strange
way but now when you sing it if you stay
and usually we stay till the end
afterwards people say shirim and they
unet the tables and everything that we
don't always say but this the song we
stay and it's so
interesting you have you
have how do you say you have a knocked
on the door knocked on his door yeah you
have knocked on the doors in the middle
of the day when it was the hardest part
of the day 12 at in the daytime you know
in is in the past when people didn't
have the past is only 30 or 40 years
when people didn't have today almost
everybody has a masan has already called
there how do you call it um you know you
know what I mean uh climatization but
you didn't have it so in benra for
example everything was dead between one
or two and 5 o'clock in the afternoon
but at 11 o'clock people went shopping
with their children was crazy why
because it's
a
so we are praising
for all the Miracles realizing all the
Miracles that came on P the lesson is
that when we have a with a certain
subject matter which is the open
Miracles so therefore it then it means
that there is a has of realizing all
those Nim every single year all the time
we can almost dare ask for missing in
those days somebody was sick went to a
acupunctur and the tumor went away I
mean excuse me it's an S and all kinds
of such things if it comes it comes if
not Hashem decided elsewhere differently
but this is what we this is a lesson
we're speaking about all the open
miracles of
so that's of course
when received the Angels because he
wanted so much to have guests
he
so
interesting okay now people that are
shining now Nomads are not shining but
if Abraham would have realized and some
say that he did and other say that he
didn't who are the not the Angels
they're not set they shine because they
are not really gashi who got matot
remember that it was matus a year from
now they're announcing him that he will
have a child and this is going to be
y right which is born on P okay got mat
that's why when we're going to have on
the and it's going to be
R it's it's the same thing with mosu
it's six months and not the end of six
months and not um and not nine okay they
are all p who are healthy okay prematur
that are
healthy went to get the Le the the the
the tongs of the uh the cows or the
whatever here
it's Bak we don't know what it is it's
I
suppose and what is there are many many
explanations so
Z According to some it's connected with
P in the sense that the
go uh worshiped the cow like in India
it's that's what remained but this was
Egyptians I can just tell you in Paris
on the stop of the underground of the
Metro of the underground of uh where you
have the Lou so you have before you go
to the L even the whole T is m in other
words imitation just with um with
plaster with gaves of everything of
Egypt of the culture of Egypt and you
have full of sheep and full of
cows and the cow is going to lead to the
egel and the and the Sheep are going to
lead to the um to the how do you call it
to
the Corban PES and like the Corban PES
is going to be slaughtered to be
transformed into something
for the the the
unbelievable
of Abu is going to kill the sh the cow
and give it to eat to the angels who
don't eat anyway or whatever you
understand so what did you have till now
we had the first thing which was what
anybody can speak is not uh the first
one which we had
right
of when do we begin we don't begin with
we begin with who is chosen because not
and not and not no none of them were
chosen but AB is chosen to begin am Isel
okay it's interesting so this
is and you say this is a sacrifice of P
the people
of got the anger
of is very very bad anger a lot of about
the and were consumed by fire by P so
that I didn't know you didn't know we
didn't know that the story of P when
they came to lot but remember logically
angels Don't Take Time angel came to
announce AB to make as if they're eating
and to announce AB that he'll have a
child from there they went to D
so when was it if this was P that's P so
we don't realize very very interesting
so they went straight to tell lot to
leave he was very very hesitant you
remember we have only four times in the
whole Kash this
sign we don't see you don't see me but I
just made a sign now which
is which
is which means that for example yourself
said to m p no no and no we learn from
it that you have to sometimes you don't
just go around that you just say no
first of all no no no and no so that and
then you work on yourself no no no it
doesn't come into question or you has
yes no yes no yes no yes no and that's
why you have an
the in many many instances explains
theim with the meaning of the word so
they went to lot and lot was hesitant
but when was
it
andot was what
is is to save somebody for example
the the people are were kidnapped or or
you you from a from an
earthquake is to save from a difficult
situation that was Lot okay I think KH
also khit has to save one from a
situation of being in auna I guess I
excellent excellent to to liberate to
liberate under the Earth or to liberate
from uh being kidnapped or to liberate
from the tie of not being able to to
marry somebody else absolutely okay and
then and he uh he
he baked matot betet at the end okay
so uh we have
uh
um where did lot it's all I think in per
not cooked mat do we have it in the or
is it only in a mid I think it's in the
mid because I think that's when the
malim came
to and he received them so he cooked mat
as
well okay uh and what is it what is it
um
I don't remember what is this I prepared
it but I I didn't write it because I
wasn't home so I was outside I
have
Egyptian I have the here and it says
that they are Egyptian
provinces is when you were overare when
you passed right you you you how do you
call it you you swept part of MIT you
swept part of MIT as well
um this is only midash and when we speak
inm about all the things that hasem did
inim this is already we're we're jumping
from B tommot
now now you know that it's
called and and this
is is you you like a car goes over
somebody how do you say you you you ran
over you ran
over you in a way that you you
okay in a ways that you um
you destroyed them you destroyed totally
yeah is like you made it be like nothing
yeah um call on all the
strengths that must be
the exactly in other words what it means
that you you this is a night of PES
itself not just p it's you we're talking
about the and that's why that was the
second thing I wanted to explain and
this is call on is a strength and we
always speak about no the same word you
see
is yob the very first strength of yob we
speak about the first child for a where
it's really the first time that he is
situs is such that this is the are
called
so you killed all the the the first
born
and it's a strength again the strength
of you went over
the the P of the Jews you understand
that you you did kill them
okay without permitting without giving
the possibility of
the in our in our openings in our ltil
but because we made the sign of very
very beautiful so first of all we spoke
about those Mir it's an absolute open
miracle because because you recognize
between this and that between the one of
the Jews and the one of the Egyptians
okay so it's very very
beautiful you didn't permit the the Mas
meaning the Mal okay etc
etc okay now that's very
interesting the cloth
no I thought so too no no it seems that
it's the story of gidon per and Z of
shim because we know that he was
dreaming of the the when they went to
the camp of the midianites the medanite
was dreaming
of from which refers to the Mitzvah of
the OM which is the second day of
P yeah so I think giddon said DAV to
Hashem that he heard from his father
because it was pesak he heard the
Miracles that Hashem did for the for the
Jews in MIT he wants them to do again
yes that's exactly the midash but we're
talking about the that city which at the
time of midan was
destroyed B the the Mitzvah of the OM
which of course uh from the from here
the med says that we theor as well that
we have to be very careful to do the
mitv because we
went to thank even for barley Which is
less good technically barley grows
faster you know you have barley before
we have wheat wheat
is and barley already grows and you can
take it uh when on the second day of P
but it's
interesting and the midan was
destroyed in the of this s this UGA the
dream of the medanite which gave K which
gave kuk to gon who was from a small
tribe who has on of is compared to mhu
bit on the chat level means uh around
UGA around bread but the med says it was
a generation which was Sal empty from
sikim there were not a lot of sikim and
in spite of it we were saved because a
went because we had
um the mitv where we said Thank you even
for a bread which is really animal food
at the time not today okay so
and again it's places of of Egypt that
nishman the the the heavy people meaning
the important people the rich people the
princes of p and lud
where yod
means fire they were they were
burnt on pesar meaning midan was really
destroyed at the
[Music]
time okay this is referring to
um
I don't remember because one of them is
one of them is the story
of
that what I have written here
is
was yeah it's
true to yes what do you say and and the
Pia that was the writing on the
wall yeah so that's why I say the
beginning is s because no is
inside and he wanted before he before he
succeeded
NE okay and and on PES he lost his his
army was destroyed it's a m if an angel
came an angel of death and killed
180,000
um soldiers or whether there was a m or
whether they ran away
but
because can destroy and said the 10
tribes are yours but not that will be
somebody else and that's with the 10
tribes and
then this is the um the destruction of T
which seems to be we don't know those
names but if you would know they're
mentioned and this is going to refer to
the the story of the banquet of bhatar
with a with a hand on the wall
yeah no El electricity anymore
everything is dark a w a white wall and
a handwriting on the wall okay so this
is um and when was
it just during the banquet when he was
making a banquet to prove that hasem is
not right or
that
okay
that you can see
yourself meaning Esther she gathered the
whole people tomes a three
days Tom and the Tom that we are going
to have not this not up the day after
tomorrow but next week is not connected
with this that's a different T and I
can't stop repeating it it's not the th
of Esther which was in Nissan during PES
and that's the whole story that that we
spoke last week that
M uh had the hesitations to make the T
but he understood that Esther being a
prophetess and agreeing to go to the
King on the perhaps of her whole
life but he did some on PES which is
theise of of
the
first and therefore we know that it was
on as
well and that the story that on the
same which he made was hanged which
was you see it's very hard Hebrew
Hebrew okay
and you will bring those two things uh
in one second to
UT okay what is
UT it's one of the names of Edom because
there must be a city in Edom which is UT
okay and there will be a lot a lot of
punishment on adom on PESA because we
say that uh the the Final Redemption
will be on P and
and pick up your
hand it's a beautiful one okay now when
we sing it it's totally different and
it's going over history of the Jews with
all the things that not by chance but by
on purpose
happened on P we have the other one
which is so beautiful as well which is
Bala you want to do the one
Bala it gives us a certain cavon when we
are going to sing it because usually
people people reawake you know because
it's with beautiful songs so people who
are very tired toward the end and it's
after the meal and we have to say the
second part of the Hal and we have so
many things and
now all the things that happen
now these things are usually
from which is six
seven Century we don't exactly know who
he was if it's for sure him but these
are things which are very very old
whereas later onad is much much later
and we have others which are much much
later even though there are many many
mein and others that are explaining it
Accord according to history as well to
the Crusades and to all the torus that
happened to our okay let's see together
which one which aod do you
have who told me that she has a Mala who
who was it that told me that I said so I
have the art scroll ha ah Brina yeah ah
Yi I don't have it very nice so you must
have explanations as well yeah so it's
for you it's only a review if you do it
but it's forcing us to do it once
right you made a lot
of again
like he will make a which is a Pelle
because it's such a difficult nether
remember the chinon would not even go
through the same d as others because
there would be grapes in that Garden
when he would go Direct
and he was afraid that without thinking
he would take one grape and smell it or
put it in his mouth so he went through a
different way so if you want to see what
is GA to make a ga for
yourself and Ash is three there were
three Ash that kohanim were
guarding during the service of the bet
mikdash it's
called
okay who is
it who is
it it's againu he began
Amel did not begin without the that
would have been it it's not that people
ask you know the famous question was
Adam a Jew or was he not a Jew it's the
nation that went down
and stop originally you can't say that
Adam wasn't a Jew but what did a Jew it
was humanity and then the the Nations
went down and then remains and abam
discovers rediscovers hem and that the
Jewish people after hasem decides to
make them more kados or to make them or
whatever you want okay so it's very very
interesting
okay um now Abraham is that's abah and
um I think
that it's again speaking about this time
the war that Abraham does either alone
with elzar or theatri of elzar 318 with
318 yesim I don't know which Yesa
perhaps from ever or whatever and there
are but he ran after the enemies and to
save lot okay so it's again it's so
interesting it's again perek udal in
Perl he separates from lot because the
Shepherds of lot are not let to his to
what he wants Abu and inal it's the war
of the Kings and lot looks exactly like
AB remember that AB is going to ask to
look different than lot old age okay for
many reasons because when you're older
you should get Cav and you
should in all the b in Israel etc etc sa
is 70 zik 60 and SE sa is 70 okay
so it's when you see already that the
per person is old why where the go so
interested in getting lot why did
Abraham save lot not just because it's
his nephew and his brother-in-law and
his Mish and everything
because theim wants to not let history
go to its final uh purpose which is man
mesiah and lot is a very important
person isai in the story of Messiah
because moav and Ammon is rot
and so it's deeper war first of all the
war of the four and the five Kings is
like a World War it's not to Little
Kings like the 31 Kings of per in yosua
you know of of that each one has a
little part or whatever it's a World War
and and lot is if you can't get abam at
least get lot so that history shouldn't
end
like wants they're fighting AEM when it
says in the per of Yeshua you finish
Yeshua sh him those that learn those
things so when they when
they when the nation sees that gon that
that um the gim want to join Israel so
they all join
together and immediately the says every
time it
says those Wars are religious wars they
are Wars of religion and that's what
we're living today it's a more of
religion they are indoctrinated with
religion it's very very frightening okay
much more
so
okay now these are again
the
the the four and the five Kings
and uh but the me is is the story of a
who takes
Sarah okay because he's me which is a
and
and I think that it refers
to
um
in
this that's La
that's okay so that's laan it's very
interesting and and and and
then that's the fight with the
Angel by the angels that yaku won
against the angel Okay so
that's that's that a Lon and the fight
with the angel all of them according to
the Das and it's all based
on which is one of the ways that you
explain because you have it in other
words where it says arami we know that
it's laon etc etc and it's um it's
um the fight with the angel which was as
well on PES
we know that it's
already
uh Egypt Egypt
okay
um it's a city in
Egypt again the same lotion as we had in
in
P okay um that's their
army right the army of par that's when
they went after the Jews till
yamu you you destroyed them on PES as
well that's the seventh day of P it's
not the same night of P but it's on P we
know because it's p and we sing the
there is a minhag that even at home at
night we we sing the everybody things
one and you you go to sh sometimes and
so beautiful it's not it's sh right but
it's not the
shabas it's a shabas where one reads
again not the chabas last day of P where
we speak
about and you know what this
is this is already at the time of Yavin
mean and this is the story already of
sisra it jumps to it skips yosua it goes
to shim and this is the the army of
cisra and what is the kavim is
that made the K be a millimeter closer
to those millions of kilometers there
are and it was so hot that the Army went
into the wall
of nalon you go to to bees you have all
those names of of all
those Rivers Nal n and Nal Nal is
smaller it's just a a smaller
River and uh and they went into the
water and then it was very very easy to
drown them a drowned them and as well
according to midash it was so hot etc
etc and it's very very interesting
because it's really very connected with
yamu because when Ben is had difficulty
to believe hasem made the water vomit
the Egyptians who were dead so that AR
is should see them dead and be calmer
that for sure they're bad and the fish
were very upset and they said you gave
us food and you took it away from us
it's an you're an Indian giv it's not
fair so hasem promised the fish that I
don't exactly understand because it's
their descendants it's much later that
their grandchildren would have to eat
the the the army of cisra and that Army
was was one and a half times as big I
think the one was 600 and this was
900 whenever I asked uh students if when
it says that uh that cisra had 900
chariots meaning 900 tanks uh if it was
a lot or and girls answer me little big
I say how do you know and the way to
know is that who had a lot only had 600
so if sisra had 900 it's even more
because if you don't compare to
something else you can't know yeah how
much is gold how much is a gram of gold
today somebody will answer me you know
it's a lot I have no idea if it's a lot
if it's little if I'm not working in the
business I have no idea what you're
talking about but if somebody tells me
Silver is so much and gold is even more
then I I have a vague idea you
understand this is a
story
okay
then
okay Isa you know what is Ison of the
it's a pupil it's interesting
is the depth of the
night okay so who is called
is Daniel if you look at children's
books you always have Daniel isud is
called okay it's a you
know is very very good in Hebrew at
plays on words so when she goes to
prisons to see the girls who who went
off the D air because they're desperate
or because they come from broken
families and everything and she tries to
to give them a message that she should
be more careful in the future and to try
to make them do Chua and everything so
she said you know you have all those
kimim the Arabs who tried to seduce you
and
aream but before you turn the become
Mahmud and they make plays on Words
between HUD and Mahmud it's interesting
that it's one of their names
Mahmud mamed you know and it has in
it I don't know it's very interesting
the Hebrew and the Arabic So Daniel is
called
but now we have twice mainly this the
concept
of we could think that it refers to goat
but the continuation doesn't seem
because go
was as the god of morning and evening to
make them mix up that they shouldn't DAV
that they shouldn't say Etc but we have
somebody else who is very and doesn't
listen to and lost all his army it's so
again
it's okay he spoke in he spoke a lot
against
and okay
so
and in in Hebrew today means a person
after he's dead so he he he sent his
hand against people to kill them
okay okay Anda means in the middle of
the night in the depth of the
night he got he got destroyed
and then who
is is Daniel and in his own Seer he's
called hamud and he was revealed things
so we are skipping a long time because
because Danielle is a period he was 16
years old when NE took him and that's
much longer than the 10 tribes but the
same the same paragraph speaks about
both because both are the same type one
tried to destroy jerusem the other one
did destroy the betam mikdash and and it
was all in the night so this is not D
but this is in the middle of the night
by this that's the same one
bhatar this is this is uh bhatar so it
goes back but I'm not sure because some
say that it's um that it's hon
because one of the reasons why was very
punished for not going for yes going to
the sud of is because they didn't listen
to
the but as well because they saw that
blasphemed by using the with the whole
story stor that they picked up from the
from the sea from the water etc etc and
they didn't say anything they were so
afraid the Jews so already a bit
assimilated that they didn't see
anything they should have screamed and
not stay at the sud if one uses to be to
become sh the of the
and it seems that as we know she's
inviting the king and hon on PES
and immediately after you have the story
of the the second night she invites them
again immediately
is and that's why when it
says the says nobody slept that
night is saying to him and the King
doesn't manage to sleep and ham is in
the middle of making his Gallow and
Esther is making a meal and she has to
be there even if she has servants
because it has to be
in a way that one doesn't realize that
it's so it's not okay so it
was who is
this again it's uh it's uh Danielle and
that would be according to the sh the
M
because
as well and immediately after we say the
one that was saved from the from the
thing of the Lions and the Lions didn't
touch him this is Danielle Danielle is
in the I don't know how you call it the
Hall of the Lions okay
s and this would be the again a we all
know from from M as well H right so the
agite is because he did not kill because
sha did not kill AAG and without that
tragedy of sha not killing AAG we
wouldn't have we wouldn't haveon
okay and that's what is this it's either
the reading of that one reads
him the one reads him the the story of M
because she said it B she said in the
name of M the king and uh
or it's the writing of According to some
the sons of H inos it says the sons of
hman and in another place it says that
it's the grandparents meaning the
parents of thees Okay
so
is famous it's at the
end okay so what is it what is it
speaking okay so that Hashem who who who
Disturbed from falling asleep
okay and
um and this refers to already to all the
tragedies happened to in
G and this
is speaking of the whole of of
galut
uh which
happens all the time but whether it's
morning or whether it's
night uh it's going we are going to be
in the
end uh we are going to be saved okay
even though you know when
say
says we have and zus and Z Goos etc etc
okay so I don't know but I like it very
much because when I do it ah and this is
a the nice the
nicest this is really refer going to I
don't know if you have seen in sometimes
there is a weather which is so strange
because we are in a desertic land with
desert and you have a hot wind like the
wind of
yonah which is very very which could
it's very bad and with a lot of o o
means a lot of sand all over and it's
it's not really light like yum but it's
not laa every time I think of this
song okay so but this is all referring
not to what I see and you saw many times
sometimes a very strange weather and in
the radio they say if you have if you're
old or if you're baby both or if you
have the slightest problems of Asa or
something don't go out of your house and
and cars and windows are full of sand
and it's not clear the weather but it
not
right every time I wait for on such days
because it says make make come a day
that is not night and not day okay
because
because has to show the world that he's
the boss over nature as well so if you
make something which one can't say if
it's day or if it's night you see that
it depends on and not on on people and
everything you know they they I don't
understand how the world doesn't realize
that
in you have so many unbelievable details
about the way the moon goes the way the
the the mons are the way all these
things so much more exact which they
discover today with telescopes and
everything than all what they discovered
nowadays with all the technology and
they had it all but clear clearly said
in the Gora and that they don't realize
that it's special I don't understand
okay in other words is above time that's
what it says
here okay in other words what are we
[Music]
talking in this that that will will
bring sh that everything should be
secure and as well that when it's
says that the night will be as clear as
the day that's another thing it's
another
explanation other words the will be like
a day meaning everything will be clear
there will be only only Gil okay so
that's very very
nice okay so this was I did it now
because if not we get to the end and
suddenly we didn't do it so I went to
the end and we'll go back next time to
closer to the beginning okay there are
many more because all the name that are
given to in all kinds of other songs
like for example but all this is
after that the of p is finished this is
and now we get to
so for
example that you're a king and you're
this and and all those details are as
well with a lot of meim
explanations okay
and
is etc etc all these songs as well and
of course a lot of Pim
on which is so nice for children Etc and
what else do we have I think we have
uh yes that's what I'm
saying has so many so many perim yeah
perim as well okay so next week I hope
that everything will be fine
