we are in power shots a very motion
we're finishing the the homage this week
and something very interesting happens
in this bombshell that Jakob is about to
die and he gathers all the tribes and
they first of all he wants to tell them
when Messiah is coming and that we
already spoke about it last year if you
were following the the Sunday classes
and we spoke about that last year you
can find it online about the concept
that Yaakov wanted to tell them when
Michelle is coming he made a quick
decision not to but something else
happens and Yaakov blesses the tribes
and also rebukes them now there's a very
interesting thing that happens
specifically with two of the tribes that
we can learn something very very
profound from it now if you remember in
the Parishad of Islip there's a whole
story that Dina the daughter of Yaakov
goes out for a walk and unfortunately
she finds herself in a bad neighborhood
and certain individual shrimp kidnaps
her and rapes her and he takes her and
he doesn't want to release her and the
result of it
two of the tribes Shimon are living they
get very upset they go into the city and
they destroy the city
of course the story was that they came
to scrims house he didn't want to give
Dean away this difference of stories
we're not gonna get to the story right
now we'll explain it a little bit later
but what happens is is that eventually
of course they wanted to marry her they
said they tricked them they said you
have to be circumcised all the men here
has to be circumcised they go and
circumcise themselves and on the third
day she Montana we come into shrimp with
their swords and they kill everybody now
this is a short short version of what
happened in Polish a Jewish law we'll
talk about it a little bit more as we go
but in this week's Parishad the Nia Cove
is starting to bless on his deathbed he
is starting to bless all the shmoo team
and most of them are just getting a
blessing but specifically to tribes
Shimon and Levy oh they're getting a
piece of Yakko his mind he's giving them
a Misha burner he opens his mouth in
them and he starts giving them his
opinion and he tells them you'll
disgrace the family you are you brought
such shame on the family that he tells
them click Hamas me ho ho take him your
your weapon your tool is your tour what
represents you is a click Hamas is a
tool of murder you went and murdered
people and and and the echo says this
was not justified this was not a good
act and not only that that you are
holding the the desire that they have of
murder
this is not coming from me you took it
from your from your uncle for myself
this is not coming from me is character
trait to murder and to kill know there
was a story now remember exactly the day
the thing was about 40 years ago some
terrorists came into Israel maybe 50
years ago and they came into Israel and
they killed the thing a woman and two
kids it was very a long time ago I don't
remember the story I remember the
reaction at the time it was the Alec
Shan who was a yeah she's known only
mile roads but something noted that
scale nevertheless I don't remember if
Alec Shan was the prior everybody foaf
staff or just the general he was a
little bit of a hothead and they went
into the village where the murder the
terrorists came from and they just
destroyed the whole place and they
actually they killed about 70 80 people
they were innocent was a big stink there
where how did they able to do such a
thing and came of course the question
was this murder justified that you going
in and you doing such a big thing
nevertheless Shimon and Levy are now are
accused by Yaakov you are murderers you
just went in there you killed everything
that moved you brought shame onto our
family
and you ARMA mush like murderers and
only that he's questioning there where
you get that from well you've got this
character trait to just grab your swords
and go into a city and kill
now of course Yakov blames it says it's
not coming from me you must have taking
it from my from your uncle from a sub
from my brother because I don't have any
type of desire or character trait in me
of killing of a murderer now comes a big
question how can the alcove call both of
them clay hummus clay hummus clears like
a weapon and come asses of murder how
can he crow calls them such such a thing
after all we know that they were also
the game they were all holy not only
that you know their names of the Shiva
team were written on the breastplate of
the Quran this is called Horsham and
they had the itch a tribe had a stone
with a different color and their names
were all written there and any message
that hashem would want to give the
hoshin would talk they would present a
question and the letters because they
had all the letters they would say she
mantova la viuda all the nails and the
letters would shine like Lahav develop
of the road would they do in a seance
when you have a board and the cup goes
on the board the hoshin was on the put
on the plate the breastplate on the coin
and the letters would shine according to
the answer and they're the names of
Levite levy and Shimon who were on the
rest right how can you call them
murderers how can you call them that
they have a desire to have a way of
killing now there is a question does
first of all that really really a cough
sword is murdered don't forget that
you're talking about 22 years passed
from the time of Yosef
so you're talking here over over 30
years from the event so really was
Yaakov thinking that it was murdered and
if so
where were you all this time in
photoshops very Slav Jacov just said
that that they brought shame to the
family and that's it so what it took you
30 40 350 years to figure out and now
you coming and telling them that it's a
that your art is killing where were you
in Paris at veg laughs yeah called now
comes another question two questions
what was Shimon and Levy thinking when
they did such a thing what would cause
these two individuals understand they
were angry because each them took their
a their sister but what was Shimon and
Levy thinking to do such a thing and
what caused the akov to get upset at
them this is things that we see now in
our PowerShell obviously something
caught thank you so much
obviously something caught up and Yaakov
got very upset of them
a question here is that how were they're
able to just kill a bunch of people like
that I understand the shrimp kidnapped
her and did something wrong okay finish
your business with him why you the whole
town
you're killing that was one of the big
questions okay I understand you had some
open business with shrimp he kidnapped
your sister he raped them
okay so kill him by killing the entire
city then we learn from abramova know
that said many Parishad before that had
these specs at deaky masha telling when
obama vena went and argued with a shame
about saddam he's told the Alfama Savina
said you're gonna kill it's a dick in
there with because everybody's ashamed
so kill gonna show you why that's when
the argument that shrimp says does not
even want to her once a dick there but
did we learn from our then they learn
from their grandfather so what is the
one person messed up why are you
punishing everybody now the same thing
also with motion that moshe said the
same thing one person with a argument
with KOA one person messed up you're
going to be upset at the entire
congregation Aisha had your pelvic old
antics off mama what's the I understand
here one person messed it up now you're
punishing everybody so comes of course
the question why would they do such a
thing and more of a bigger question is
how come here Cole after so many years
fifty years past from their event and
now you remember to rebuke them what
happened fifty years where were you
fifty years it was okay and now before
you die let's see that's your farewell
goodbye by telling them that you have
the desire to kill your machine weapon
of destruction
where were you Yakko for so long so
obviously when you see such a big
question mark in so many questions
obviously there's a big secret hidden in
here this is not something that say no
one can ignore obviously
is a big secret in here we just want to
find out a what is the secret and not
only that how is that gonna do with me
because the talk comes to teach me
something so we know that Yaakov lived
in mid time for 17 years
last week he also reveals himself he
says I'm your brother
they bring down Yaakov they bring 70
people they all get situated they land
in the land of goshen they build houses
this has set up your she vote they open
shows they establish them and the alcove
ends up living in mid time for 17 years
17 years that he's there and he's
finishing his life and how is he
finishing his life he starts giving them
blessing he gathers them around the bed
and he starts one-by-one giving them
blessing now this is already an
interesting concept because he starts
giving them one by one different
blessings and so he says to yahuda you
gonna have Kings coming out of you and
any Sokka the the Talmud ever Hamim all
the rabbi's the rahbaniya all gonna come
out from you the wisdom the hikmah and
volune you're gonna be rich and it gives
each and every one of them a blessing
which in itself is a very weird concept
why why you be giving each one a
different blessing just can't you all of
them to be rich only the woman should be
rich and only you would that we'll have
Kings coming out of him and only Sokka
will have tell me that ha ha Meem what
kind of a blessing is that why are you
giving each one a different blessing I
would expect our Father to give
everybody equal blessings I mean that's
the right way No
rather you're right first of all it
seems like there's a distinguisher not a
distinguish discrimination knife lay up
you get money you get brain you get the
looks so no you're right
Yaakov didn't give any blessing Yaakov
was just strengthening the advantage
your each and every one of them had this
is the exact concept when we go to
ecstatic for Baja something doesn't give
you a blessing this is a mistake of many
people that a lot of people go to a
Tzadik and they ask for a blessing that
sadek is not the one who gives the
blessing he just releases the Sheva
that's it it was already there to start
with I already got the blessing that
something just comes and releases the
knot he unties the knot so the blessing
can start flowing in a much more open
way that's the difference that wasn't
about it to dig does that's what Yaakov
did Yaakov just said no I'm not giving
you a new blessing I see each and every
one of you what's in your Mazel and I'm
just going to empower it that's what he
did and sometimes you see that there's
there's a I mean in the time when Yaakov
was talking to them you see that the
laws of it was blessing but some of what
he was saying is the opposite of
blessing to read of course the power
shaman you have to come to the class a
little bit prepared because we don't
have the time to start going through
every little story in the Torah but you
if you would read it you would see that
some of it is very good blessings and
some of them is not some of them it
sounds like the complete opposite of the
blessing
Yaakov when he was blessing them he
wanted to empower the good when he was
saying the opposite of the blessing he
wanted to help them to cut off to uproot
the bad attributes to prove the bad
media which in itself is something that
I need to acquire and to see that when I
see something positive I have to empower
it doesn't matter right now where it is
can be with my wife it can be with my
child
it can be in another person in my
community that is doing something
amazing instead of you know trying to
put it down and power it this in itself
just that is one message one can take
from the power shop you see a child that
is doing something and you see that they
have something positive that empower
that you know that we now started here
praying every everyday boho xem have
minion email three times a day so my son
my 11 year old he comes every day to
pray with us instead of praying in his
class he asks permission and he's
praying with us he said I want to pray
with my father I want to pray in the
school he comes every day wakes up early
gets prepared he prepares everything me
putting the seed blooming back this is
Stan series is very very involved in the
Kea Totowa he helps his so and you see
something so beautiful he wants to do it
by himself so mo wash em I'm busy
sometimes all it needs is one little
word so the other day I just told him
you know I'm very proud how you wake up
in the morning how you're taking this
very serious how you show up it makes me
very happy that you're next to me all it
takes is two minutes to say a few
encouraging words and you saw that then
I so the next day he was even more
because it's taking something positive
and empowering it and making it grow and
make it come out more to the surface we
have to acquire that you see somebody
doing something good don't go and be
jealous
oh oh stop bad-mouthing or look what
it's doing now and empower that saying
wow he's doing amazing talk about you
should do more let me help you this is
you know we're we're talking about
before people have such a narrow eye so
we have to take something from that and
of course on the other hand
Yaakov saw the bad character traits so
he says I need to cut it up I need to
approve it so when yucca was rebuking
wasn't trying to necessary to put them
on their spot he says let me help you to
part to point out your weak point so you
can work on yourself
now here okay every becomes a little bit
more touchy don't go around and start
telling every person their weak points
you're not gonna have much friends so
but if you recognize in somebody
something that is negative find the
right way to tell the person by the way
I have noticed that you're amazing here
you great here unbelievable here here
yeah it's lacking a little bit I think
you should do that this is like that of
course everything has to be done the
right way
but even when something is negative it
needs to be pointed out of course in the
right way not in a way if you pointing
it out in with a finger then it's not
going to be accepted if you want to help
the person really chop off the bad
character the bad meda that's when it
will actually work if you're coming with
an ego and pawning important pointing
fingers then the message will not come
across you'll just get resistance and
hate so same thing Yaakov says this I'm
gonna tell you where something is
negative but I'm not coming to attack
you I'm not coming to put you on the
spot I'm coming to show you my my
observation and to help you here now
Kawana to uproot the bad MoDOT
especially here we're talking about
Shimon and living where now the two
stars are we talking about our Shimon
are living now what was one of the
things that Shimon that Hacha that
Yaakov told for Shimon Levy shall come
back of a feat Amba strain I will divide
them they are curved in the in the mini
ovis is a definition of the nation I
will separate them a Halcomb way a feat
Amba seven I'm going to spread them
around the the nation and we see that I
have to admit he was saying I have to
take your anger your anger is very very
dangerous and I have to spread it all
over the place you know when you have
something concentrated it's much more
powerful you break it into pieces then
it's much less dangerous so you take a
few a few kids put them together
together there
they're they they're a big troublemakers
separate them put this one over here
this one over here they're not so bad
but we've seen with everything take now
a lot of sand and put it together with a
little bit of a water or mud and becomes
a strong it can become hard as a rock
separated now break it into into small
grains it's not so powerful now come
says I have to you did your anger is
very dangerous I have to break it into
pieces and I have to spread it over the
place and he basically told them you're
gonna be scattered you're not gonna be
concentrated and we saw later that she
won't became the tribe that we used to
educate the babies so he had to go from
one house to another house they didn't
have a set place and the same thing look
at levy maybe after that they later on
of course Coenen came out of the tribal
rav4 Sheila by no means a serious
serious tribe but you see that the
Laveen they don't have a and the corny
they don't have possession of the ground
of the land they're kind of like
scattered they don't own anything this
was what Jakob says I have to scatter
you around because together you very
very dangerous and you put something too
concentrated that can cause a big
problem of course all comes down to the
same question why does yak of calling
them murderers he actually calls them
you are murdered you murdered this is a
pretty harsh statement now what really
happened in the story very long story a
very long story but to say it in a short
way like I told you Deena got captured
by shrimp and Shimon levy didn't like it
especially that he raped her and they
said no they they they they contaminated
her sister of course the shrimp says ok
no problem don't get upset
I will marry her so this says no you
can't marry her because you have to be
circumcised if you all circumcise
yourself then we'll let you marry our
our ladies are women so the the entire
city now stream was like the governor
the
mayor and his son the son of this by the
way was the son of shrimp mo exactly how
it sounds how what was a donkey but it's
also not a nice word in Hebrew you want
to tell somebody is something not nice
you call him a donkey mo another or less
so we're not going to translate the word
in English but you you understand by
yourself Jimmy part of a donkey yeah and
the part that everybody has and we use
it when we sit and learn so and then on
our brain so then what happens so they
make everybody circumcise themselves and
on the third day when it's considered
the harder day the hardest of all the
days to heal they go into the city and
they just kill everybody they pull out
their swords you have to understand
Shimon is is a 15 and Larry's 13 two
teenagers they go in with their swords
and they start killing everybody like
samurais you know some some like
commentaries they wonder how did they do
that to kids against the whole city so
what if the men just circumcise
themselves so the answer is that both
were really trained in martial arts and
they're like so like a ninja like a
samurai going in and they're then
they're able to take a whole city down
that's why last week when you Hooda
approached Yosef and he told him give me
back the young men and no sisters no
user says listen if you you have two
ways of dealing with it
the nice way or the oh my way or the
highway either you give me back my
brother oh I'm gonna destroy this entire
land and he said to Yosef my two little
brothers when they were 13 and 15
destroyed the whole city think I have a
problem destroying your home country I
will destroy entire me time and you
would have banged on the floor with his
leg like you know like one like that and
the whole land was shaking so there's
our little two little kids there is a
guy new bush a lime and he has a very
end
martial arts system and he's a linear
lineage of there were bodyguards of the
the the Kings in Yemen and the whole
martial arts is in the shape of letters
and the Hebrew letters there so all the
the blocks and the hits it's all Hebrew
letters it's unbelievable you can find
him online and he's teaching it and and
it's so special they're all with te aute
and they pray before that in framing hi
my wheat and the entire martial arts and
he's saying yeah our forefathers were
trained martial artists for Shimon allow
me to go into a city and to kill
everybody this is a you know in
Hollywood they don't even know how to
produce it his name is I think it's
called a beer a beer like a night I'll
look it up I'll tell you the name
exactly but or you can just do Google
Jewish martial art you'll see it will
come up nevertheless Yaakov calls Shimon
and livery murderers why how do you
could call your son murderers now Yaakov
is really blaming them because when they
went into the city and they killed
everybody right after that Yaakov was
very upset at the time he didn't call
the murderers he just told him you
brought shame on the family by doing
such a thing
so Yaakov was upset not about the murder
rather he was upset because they they
deceived the people in shrimp because
they didn't come and say hey guys let's
have war they said oh why don't you
circumcise yourself and you're all going
to be circumcised like us and they will
give you our women to marry so you
tricked them you lied to them therefore
you brought shame on the family
Yaakov didn't and they had a probably
didn't condemn them at the time about
killing rather he condemned them that
they tricked them why did you come in a
tricky way now what was the answer of
the Brothers of Shimon and levy at the
time we didn't have an option
we came to release Dena we got the
inside information that she was
kidnapped we went to the house we were
knocking on the door
give us back our sister no we're not
given we didn't have an option and they
started attacking us
someone had to kill them all that was
the one explanation what the tribe what
she wanted let me answered when Yaakov
told him what are you doing what are you
out of your mind
it says listen we didn't have an option
they didn't let us take dinner and they
didn't accept our demand and they were
threatening us so we felt threatened
then we had to kill them all so this
interpretation is not accepted why
because she wouldn't every planned it it
was a planned thing something they just
came and knocked on the door and and one
thing went led to the other
they actually planned it he was a
planner how they gonna do it when
they're gonna do it let's make them all
circumcised they tricked him it was a
little it was a conspiracy
that's what Yaakov was very upset about
not the fact that they killed that they
tricked that now our family will have a
reputation we're in shame it we hear
truth if something has to be done with
just justice
they'll be justice but why are you going
and tricking the fact that you made the
trick it makes us look bad you know I
always tell my kids when I when I hate
them kids are kids and sometimes they
fight my kids and one will give the
other one a kick and the other one will
give another amount of smack and this
will throw something in him it's not
only our kids by the way it's all the
kids do it so and then one of them comes
crying to me but he's girdled so and I
always tell them the same thing if one
does something to you if you come to me
and you tell me he did that to me then
he will get in trouble but the fact that
you retaliated you you acted based on
your own decision I'm not just good I'm
not gonna jump in here it's your problem
if you wouldn't do anything
he will get in trouble the fact that you
answered back that I'm sorry to tell you
you deal with it yourself and same thing
here Jakob said who told you to react
like that if they did something wrong
we wouldn't deal with it in the right
way because after all there was a lack
of said we we have a law here and Jakob
said you you write that they had to be
brought to justice there's no question
here we will deal with it in the right
way but that because you went and trick
them because you went and tricked and
you lied then I can't even bring them to
justice
I can't even sue them because they're
gonna counter back at me and say beer
but they lied to us now the thing is
that Jakov got upset because at the time
even though we didn't have the toy ayats
but the seven laws of North or applied
at the time because the seven rules of
North were established before Noah six
of them are given before the time of law
and the seventh was given to knock so
these are the seven laws that apply to
all the nations so even at the time
there wasn't a Torah but they had the
seven laws of law and all the non-jews
were also obligated in these laws and
one of the laws of Knopf was to
establish courthouses and to bring
justice this is up until today now they
didn't do that they didn't bring a
courthouse because that should have been
done dealt in a court
you kidnapped you know how to do that
you raped you know to do that
this was all supposed to be dealt in a
court and you know taking the matters to
your own hands and you start killing
people so Jakov got upset not because of
the the retaliation the way it was done
and Yaakov was proving them because they
tricked it trick them they wasn't done
the right way now the Rambam explains
that technically and not even
technically according to al aha
the son the SRAM and the son and
everybody there they deserved to be
killed
because they're all under the rule of
the Blaine oh and a person that does
that steals a human being is has to be
put down to death and the Rambam
explains her logically she model every
were right there wasn't a problem of
allaha here because according to other
aha
they kidnapped and the penalty here is
death and they just followed the law Jew
or non-jew doesn't matter these seven
laws of North are universal laws for
everybody so album comes to the
protection of Shimon elevenses no they
were did according to law thought they
were fine their Ambon contradicts and he
says no i i i disagree with Rambam and
the the reason why they were they had to
be killed and specifically forgive them
for gaza meaning stealing and and for
other sins not for the key for the
kidnapping so there is an argument in
allaha if she wanna levy did according
to the halacha if they're good if they
have the backing the support of the
torah or not but nevertheless we're
still coming back to the same question
is in our parish ah forget about right
now it doesn't really matter it's a
little bit less irrelevant right now if
the halacha
rules like condemn the act or not
there's different explanations in under
hundred years they have the they have
the aloha backing them up okay that's
why we're not going into the halacha
part in it
i'm just trying to prove the point that
Shimon and levy can come and say what do
you want from us we acted according to
the Torah we're trying to get to the to
the answer why Yaakov is calling them
murderers that's not a shooting role in
my mind when I read it you said your
farewell to your kids you're calling
their murderers that's what I'm trying
to understand so on behalf of Shimon and
levy we're trying to understand were
there right or not
believe it or not the halacha stands
with Shree owner Larry that they were
they your operated according to Aloha
the fact if they took it to their hands
or not that's a different thing
Yaakov was upsetting them at the time
because they did in a tricky way Jakob
says no no no we should have established
a court find them guilty and then put
them to death you went one step forward
and you did it in a tricky way that's
what was Yakko was upset about in Padua
but I'm right now in parashat very I
want to know how is that to do right now
and why Yaakov is calling the murderers
before guys now the explanation here is
that in the beginning Yaakov believed
them when shimon and left we came back
with blood on their hands just imagine
the scene two teenagers are coming home
mommy they're dinner what's for dinner
mommy turns around Oh what happened you
fell about now I just murdered her you
know a whole city I just thought it was
no big deal so just imagine they're both
walking in these two teenagers swords
full of blood hands full of blood and
what happened there no we we just
brought Dina back home it was a little
bit of an argument there don't worry we
squared it out we're not gonna have any
problems from there anymore so in the
beginning they came and they explained
so in the beginning Yaakov believed them
so he didn't get out he didn't tell them
anything they said yeah that's what
happened we weren't there we found out
that Dina was captured we demanded that
they release her they did not listen we
were banging on the door started a
confrontation they attacked us we kill
them okay
Jakob says okay sounds fair to me let's
have dinner
so and so the beginning
Yaakov believed them and and he let it
go fifty years pass and now it happens
again
now don't forget one thing here 17 years
Yaakov lives in Egypt 22 years Joseph is
disappeared that in itself is already 39
years 39 years Yaakov doesn't know what
happened the whole 22 years that Joseph
was in my tribe Yaakov thought that
Yosef was eaten by an animal they entire
17 years while he was in mid time I told
you already
the mcgraw she explains that Yosef did
anything in his power to not be found by
himself with Yaakov
Soha special on the outcome should not
ask yourself tell me what happened that
night that you disappeared Yosef didn't
want to say you know they actually threw
me into a pit and then they sold me he
didn't want to bad-mouth them so Yosef
evaded Yakko for 17 years every time
that there's always going to be people
around the house version of Yaakov
should not come and tell him son come
and tell me I missed you for 22 years
what happened now finally it comes up to
the surface the whole story comes up
right before the death Oh
so Yaakov says oh I see now that what
you did 50 years ago that I thought that
it's like a one-time thing and you were
just doing what you're supposed to do it
repeated itself thirty-nine years ago
you threw yourself into the pit you were
looking to kill him so this is already a
habit this is not a one-time thing
it was Shimon that pushed yourself into
the pit with the advice levy was
standing next to him they wanted to kill
him you who the chemist says no no no
let's not have blood on our hands leave
him alone
Uther came to the rescue Shimon and levy
wanted to kill him so Leah come says oh
it's in your blood
oh boy oh boy yeah it wasn't a mistake
with shrim
it actually material you're looking to
kill now it's a whole different thing
see it's a character you have a new
desire to kill now if it happened once
I'll let it go it happens twice sorry to
tell you you have a problem you have to
go to ka killers Anonymous you have a
problem you like killing this is a story
it's a story about a strength Hassid
that his name was healing healing from
Pavich he when he was born he was
already noticed to be a genius
mama genius he was a young individual he
knew the entire shots of my heart i much
like a very very high level individual
and at the time was the period that the
the mono that said the kiemce of the
generation one of the real dominating
tsadikim of the generation was the Paula
Tanya and this healing from public
wanted to meet him because he was a
genius he was a teenager he wasn't no I
wasn't an old man and he wanted to meet
the man Italian he said this is a genius
I'm a genius I want to pick his brain I
want to ask him all my questions I mean
he wanted to meet something like that so
he started travelling around him and not
around he was trying to travel to find
him and every time he would reach to a
certain town there was nothing today you
have internet chief Chuck whatsapp's
everything there was rumors oh he's
right now in that city he would drive to
that city at a week journey Mae was
already gone where is he going now
oh we heard he's going to
that city he will drive there and every
time he would come he would miss him
then he got some inside information and
he found out what is this the next stop
so he says this time I'm gonna go fast
and sure enough he came there a few days
before the visit before the visit he
says this time I'm not missing him so he
found out where exactly he's going to be
sleeping and moments before he came the
ballot Anya he snuck into the room and
he hid under the bed and he's like the
second that he walks in I'm gonna jump
out and that way I don't miss him
so he's lying under the bed and he hears
already the carriage is coming the horse
is the commotion and he's like okay I'm
about to meet him this is very exciting
and then he sees stunned and he's like
wait a minute what am I gonna ask this
is gonna be like a a moment and I have a
moment to throw a question what am I
gonna say it's a you know I'm meeting
him so he says oh I have a question in
in in allaha in a tractate that is
called alkene alkene is the the value
there is a tractate that is talking
about how can you value a person a human
being because they were slaves they
unfortunately doesn't sound so nice but
the value of a woman the value of a man
there's different values each person you
know even today that's today they value
individual this person is worth a
million dollars
this person is worth four million
dollars they have a list of the richest
people in the world what are their worth
of course this is coming from a side of
an ego but this tractate is dealing with
the value of a person now how can you
really value a human being so he said
you know what I'm gonna ask him that I'm
gonna ask him something that has to do
with this tractor and the ballot on he
walks into the room he's the person is
about healing is about to jump out of
the bed
and the balcony's says out loud when a
young individual has a question in the
tractate of Elkin first he has to value
himself he faints he says wow this is
true ha kodesh he had to walk others he
knew amount of the bed he knew him young
and he knew my question and he fainted
and of course by the time you woke up
they took him out of the bed he woke up
and of course the mala Tommy already
left and he never met him he understood
that he cannot meet him he became one of
his hasidim and he never ever met him
later on he became a constant of his
childhood of his son and later on the
same aesthetic but he loved a bar which
is a very big name in the Hasidic world
never met his revery the ballot Anya now
the court the the the point to take from
that because What did he say he says
that when you have a question in what's
the value of a person first value
yourself start valuing yourself now
valuing is not really the the right term
in English in Hebrew you would say
loudly that's maja but with a nine let's
see what's my value right now where am i
holding I need to bring myself sometimes
to the place that I have to see where am
i holding right now am i doing exactly
what I'm supposed to do and I'm where
what's the level that I'm holding right
now and in a situation even what's do it
when I was out doing the right thing
here and in a in a certain act that I do
I have to look at myself and be very
judgmental or myself and say was I right
or not am i doing good or not it's very
easy to say yeah I'm doing great
oh maybe not maybe I have some place for
improvement when somebody will come and
tell me what I'm doing something bad
right away my ego will be like whoa
you're not doing so great yourself so
he's very hard to get a rebuke from
somebody or to get somebody's opinion
you didn't
this you did that our ecosystem right
away will kick in and whoa why are you
attacking me but really what we want to
take from that is that I have to
constantly I have to evaluate myself
comes a situation I have to look at
myself say was I right here when I was
saying this and that did I act the right
way maybe I owe that person an apology
maybe I'm not acting right and now of
course I'm talking about the The
Situation's become negative nothing that
you become positive obviously if it's
positive that the outcome is positive
there's no argument here
talking right now there's a negative
outcome I have to look at myself and say
am i acting the right way am i acting
according to the opinion of the TOA was
i right here
maybe I'm the wrong one maybe I have to
be the one who steps forward and says
I'm sorry I was wrong I didn't do
something right now the problem is that
in most cases we are very harsh
especially on the other side on myself
I'm not harsh sometimes yes some people
they have that character that they're
very harsh on themselves but when it
comes to the other side I'm very harsh
on the other side no place for leniency
the thing is that I have to constantly
evaluate myself in every situation I
have to look at myself and analyze it
and I have to let's say for example ice
cream right now I come home and my child
does something oh my wife this is a
common thing and you scream well you
don't have wife's bow Hashem at least I
hope but there I have to be very
diplomatic here we have a lot of viewers
that are men so they have wives I hope
so
or wish but nevertheless you know a
situation that's this is a common thing
a person will come and something will
trigger them and they'll scream
so screaming at another person where did
this scream come from then the scream
came from my ego from me or from concern
now I can now get upset at
child and I'll raise my voice or punish
all do a certain act I have to ride away
evaluate where is this coming from is it
coming because I'm concerned and I want
to educate the child that will be
positive or if it's coming because of my
ego because my ego was hurt and I to
constantly look at any situation how is
where is the reaction coming from that's
the the this evaluation of myself but I
value myself I have to see if the
problem is in me or in somewhere else
and the way to do it is to really absorb
observe in the reaction and then I can
say where this is reaction coming from
now if I can pinpoint it that it's
coming from concern good then sometimes
you need a harsh reaction sometimes you
need it you want to educate your child
you want to make sure that that that
something is not right away sometimes it
requires the harsh harsh action but if
it's coming for something good it's
coming to help it's coming to coming
from concern if it's coming from my ego
and I really observe myself I evaluate
myself then what am I kidding why you go
I got upset and I know it's coming from
the wrong place that's what it means
when I have to really really evaluate
myself and I need to know my reactions
where they're coming from and it can
come from both directions
you know when we pray the the the prey
of shmouna is that village monitor there
the standing prayer in the chocolate
milk final weight we start by saying
akela God Allah give of innova the great
and huge and Almighty God all vanora
this can be interpreted as Rena Rena the
Shem is very powerful and canny or even
he wants to punish he knows how to
punish he finish to destroy the world
he'll put the world on the water this is
a killer good ol great Aggie bolΓvar
Noah no how can be you know something
very much but right in the same sentence
what do we say go man has said
right away the Clemenza stood him to him
akela Ghidorah give over Noah caramel
custard into me on one hand is always a
almighty and if he needs to put his foot
down a sham already proved that he knows
how to put the foot down now to take
care of business but the sentence ends
by we go Melchizedek dove him he does a
lot of kindness and everything that he
does is with kindness and good so we see
that even a Shem knows when to be firm
and when to be not firm when to be kind
so I have to in every situation that I
do in every situation that I am every
action that I do I have to make an
evaluation where is it coming from is it
coming from anger it's coming from ego
it's coming from from proving the point
it's coming from concern or that I want
to educate and better the situation the
album says about a shame that he doesn't
have a nature so to say doesn't have a
nature or a character and solo album
says about a shame but Hashem knows how
to the the word in Hebrew that he uses
boin boin is like to judge a ship
doesn't have a character like what is a
Yaakov telling Shimon in levy you have a
character you have a bad character you
like spilling blood this we cannot say
on a sham Michelle doesn't have a
character or habits Hashem observes the
situation he analyzed the situation he
judges is the right way and decide if
the the reaction will be harsh or not
and that's what I want to take hold on
with the questions we feels I'm gonna
finish in a second this is what Yaakov
is telling Shimon and Levy this is
exactly what they were telling them the
the killing it came from you it didn't
don't pretend that came from the challah
ha that you said no they they're they're
obligated in the laws of no of they
didn't establish a core they stole their
sir no it's not that you're not fighting
here fall aha
you're not such a don't pretend that
you're going based on the hollow ha you
it came from you that's why I'm angry at
you because if you really cared about
the Torah you would do with the Torah
says and not by what the Aloha but what
would you want to say exactly what we
were talking about before we talked
about before how sometimes in situations
a certain individual will act in a
certain way what we talked about before
and when I was going out what you were
telling me sometimes people they behave
in a certain way and it's only coming
from their ego not coming from anywhere
else it's only their ego but they're
leaning on the hala ha no no we're doing
it's the it's the opinion of the Torah
here I'm fighting for the Torah no
you're not
it's coming from your ego and that's
what she wanted maybe we were saying no
no no no father
we know the Torah we're fighting for
that in the name of the Torah
we're following the ha ha here they
deserve to die and Nico's saying who are
you kidding
you know doing anything it's your ego
it's coming only from your pride because
you have a problem so the meat that you
have a problem and don't pretend that
it's allaha that you're so pious just
admit you have a problem
you're like seeing blood being shed so
it's many other situations that we see
in front of our eyes there's nothing to
do with our AHA there's nothing to do
the Torah this is the fakeness and
people say no I'm leaning on the Torah
many people in many situations when they
start an argument or a fight and will
people tell them why are you causing a
fight I'm fighting in the name of the
Torah I have to bring justice in the
name of the Torah
this is a lahar the other individual is
doing it something against the kebab
unfortunately we don't have a Yaakov to
say who are you kidding it's your ego
it's your arrogance you know don't talk
that you don't say that you're doing it
in the name of the Torah and this is
exactly what Yaakov was telling them in
the big
I believed you when you said we did it
in the name of the Torah but now that I
found out that you did the same thing to
yourself sorry to tell your family this
is a pattern you have a problem and you
better take care of it I will give you a
blessing but I'm also gonna tell you
where's your weakness and we need to
know how to evaluate ourselves and to
know if it's coming from the truth or
not and if it's not then I have a
problem and I have to admit and I have
to apply and I have to change it and I
have to refine my character trait that
is negative there's nothing wrong with
that we're all created and not perfect
by the way
if I think for whatever reason I'm
perfect and everybody else is at fault
that is in itself an imperfection
there's nothing that is created perfect
you know the top the the the urbanism
and the SLO for every no connotes that
he has a book that it says be okay there
are barely as though he explains there
that when Hashem created the world he
created the world in four corners north
south east and west but the northern
part that his northern corner he didn't
finish the world is not finished it's
like a puzzle that you have a
thousand-piece puzzle you have 99 pieces
there one pieces in the corner is not
finished it's not a complete job a sham
didn't finish the world why so if
somebody will come and say I'm a god
then God will to him okay so let's see
you finishing the world because many
people came in the history they said I'm
a god you know tonight they have the
world is commemorating somebody in
thought he's a God so Hashem is the
answer over sermons oh yeah you are a
God so finish the world finish migration
so same thing here some people think
that they're the peak of perfection
Shem says no we're all created with some
things that are not perfect so you can
fix it so you can correct it so yeah
call God upset at them because not
because of the
action because where the reaction came
from the reaction is one thing Yaakov
cared about where it came from and he
told him I'm leaving you right now I
want to give you a yoohoo Shai
inheritance so I'm telling you your
fault don't let your ego affect you and
be offended I'm not offending you I'm
telling you what to work on this is what
we want to take from this Parishad that
we're not perfect we're far from perfect
and we have problems that if somebody
comes and tells me listen you have this
issue don't jump right away out of your
body and attack okay I have an issue
everybody has issue I have an issue with
this you have an issue with that and I
need to refine myself and I have to
constantly put myself under the
magnifying glass to see where are my
reactions coming from and have to be
very humble and have to be only
searching for the truth to know that I
it's for my own benefit it's like a
person that is addicted to drugs or
alcohol and people coming and telling
him you are addicted no I'm not yes you
are deal with it take care of it we're
not trying to attack you we're trying to
help you
and the ones who want to help themselves
then they were able to do it because
they realized that I have a problem now
I'm giving an example just with drugs
and alcohol but we all have all these
little problems you know addictions
little issues that I need to acknowledge
them and it's not about putting myself
down it's not about that I'm losing
status I have to see where it's coming
from so I know how to fix it that's it
and when I'm able to reach to that level
why did Jakov did not tell them the time
when Michelle is coming there's many
explanations one of the reasons because
he didn't want them to feel that they
reached perfection no you still in exile
you still have to work on yourself and
this is what you have to work on this is
what I want to take from this PowerShell
that I have to really constantly put
myself under a magnifying glass any
reaction that comes out of my mouth
every word every action I have to take a
short break and say okay where did this
come from
the screaming the rebuking there there
whatever it is my reaction did it come
from my ego
for my place where I got hurt or it came
with a good intention to actually help
and coming from concern I'm able to
refine myself in that such a way I will
reach to my own level of redemption if
each and every one of us will just apply
that just a little bit just imagine how
better the world would look how much
more how much more peace would be and
how much less arguments we would have if
people will take once a day the time to
look and say you know what
Who am I kidding my ego got hurt I got
offended
I got stepped on I'm jealous I feel like
I'm a failure or a loser so I have to
throw my my frustration on somebody else
if each and every one of us does this
own way of thinking then the only one
who will benefit from it the most is
only on because your life will be much
more smoother less confrontations less
arguments much more happier and needless
to say how that will make the work of
the world there's so much of a better
price that will convince the calash baho
okay we can stand each other a little
bit send us mushiya please
