Parsha Perspectives for Today (Mattos/Massei)

good morning in Boker Tov and welcome back to our weekly parsha perspectives for today in which we examine and analyze the passion try to extract the lessons that can inform and inspire our everyday living today thank you so much for being with us and as always want to thank our generous sponsors of the parsha series for the year our dear friends Becky and avi katz who sponsored in memory of Becky's father Lily knishmas David Amanda hamantash David Grossman whose neshama should have an Aliya also a special thanks as always to the O you for partnering and promoting this year we're so grateful to the O you for all that it does ok let's dive right in because this week we have two parties we have a double partial Matos and mas a this is a fantastic week we're going to conclude by mid bar we're gonna get to scream huzzah huzzah Venus Kasich strengthen one another and together we will be strengthened it's always important we finish and we have the opportunity to say this in the three weeks a time of period of divisiveness and conflict we can turn to one another and say Kazak be strong and Kazak be strong and together Venus Kazakh together we will be strengthened as a result so it's important to be able to say that in these three weeks and the message and the lesson of the three weeks is that we are not divided we're not in conflict we're not contentious but rather our mission and our goal is Kazakh Zack to be able to strengthen one another and the result of strengthen one another is collectively even as Kazakh to be strong okay purchase Malthus begins in the Earth's crust on so much on page nine hundred right Debbie Michelle Russia Methuselah Israel a more zelda varsity Vashem Moshe spoke to the Russia Hama tells the heads of the tribes he gives them his position of a distinction why specifically to the heads of the tribes why to these decane him why to these elders what is the message what is the law he's about to teach is about to teach the law of New Durham other laws we have 613 mitzvot in the Torah so many of the others were not delivered specifically to the regime a toast to the heads of the tribes so there's a kingdom to the elders why specifically are these laws given to the elders so what are the laws that are given each key adorned either lashes Joshua lisara's on our show lugar held Varro Kahala yo Timmy pivot ya sir if a person takes a vow if a person takes a oh that a person makes a promise or a pledge to Hashem then they have created a prohibition on themselves less sorry you saw on that show so right now the keyboard the mouse that are in front of me they're perfectly permissible now I'm Chava so you have to but throughout the week and not depending what I type in or where I go with them but they as objects are perfectly permissible and yet man has the power of the capacity that if I say they are forbidden to me like a cheeseburger they become forbidden like possible olives we can transform the very nature we can transform the very status of identity of objects from permissible to prohibited less so he saw on that show so if I make that promise of pledge I take an oath I'm not going to eat corn chips from Trader Joe's my kryptonite anymore I'm not touching the potato chips that's why l've o'clock at night anymore I'm not going to whatever the case may be something which is permissible then lo you held Varro do not violate your word call yo Timmy PB I say everything you say you're going to do you should do I saw one of the commentaries I don't remember where I saw this wonders I don't understand the torah's are really structured 613 mitzvot we have positive Commandments we have negative Commandments and one of the prohibitions we have is maltose if I'm not allowed to add on I can't pile on to the prohibitions that I have I can't expand there it on to the Mitzvah I don't know it on to the prohibitions so why isn't the concept of an editor or a schwa a form of bow Joseph why doesn't it violate the prohibition on adding on to the existing Torah right now the keyboard and mouse are permissible right now the chair on the table are permissible right now the Trader Joe's corn chips are not good for me but technically they are permissible why am I allowed to expand the list of prohibitions isn't that a violation of bout Asif so I forgot where I saw it I apologize I'm not fulfilling saying something into shame ohm Rome but the answer is that's why this section specifically that's why this section is introduced with the idea of in front of the regime atossa in front of the leaders of the tribes because how is it that I can make a net there because I could always annul it the Torah builds in the mechanism to take a vow a pledge or a promise to transform the status of something but it also builds in the way out it gives me the loophole it gives me the ability to a know the vow or the promise I took in front of whom in front of a bay stand in front of the second M in front of head yo toes simple Baisden or more complicated based on depending on the vowel or the promise that I took so therefore it's not a violation about OSA because unlike the rest of the prohibitions of the Torah which are non negotiable which are not debatable which I cannot null or release myself from a vow I always can back out a vow I always can know and that's why specifically this was delivered in front of the ocean mottos because they are a critical part of the solution of how to get out of the vow and they're a critical part of the reason that the institution of vows is not a prohibition of the general attitude or mandate of bow of Balto Civ so here the Torah says that if you take this promise below you held Varro what are these words lo ya Alvaro means so look at Rashi says Rashi lawyer called Varro Kimmo logical Alvaro lo yeah said var ov Hulan that word Yael comes from the word whole we have a long list of words that begin with s valve llama D we have a long description that are really ultimately what Hulan or whole is about for example the weekday contrasted to Shabbos or yontiff showers and yet if are called Kadesh and the weekday is called whole it's mundane its secular its profane in nature a person who desecrates God's name is created a halo hashem person who violates Shabbos is a Mahalalel Shabbos somebody who converted something consecrated or holy made pillow to it somebody halal creates a vacuum that that those letters Islamic or secular mundane profane they are the opposite or inverse of kodesh of holiness when there's a violation of holiness when there's an absence of holiness the opposite of holiness that you get is that you get is Col is : so therefore logical devar oh don't make your words Hulan don't make them whole what does it mean not to make them whole so if we establish that whole is the opposite of kodesh it means what should one's words normally be what should a person normally B words are conduit an instrument of holiness we can build we can construct we can encourage we can transform we can elevate we can enrich what we can do with our words with differentiates us from the animal kingdom is our words it is what makes us Co - it's what empowers us and enables us to be holy and when we violate those words when I promise our pledge mean nothing when we don't follow through and we don't show up when we use our words too freely to loosely to profanely then we've turned what should be naturally qodesh our words into : we've turned them into huland low yah held Varro says the Torah you make a promise a pledge you have the ability with your words to turn the microphone the keyboard the table the chair you took something that God gave that was simple and you made it holy law held Varro you made it holy don't reverse it lo yaa held Varro says Rashi don't turn it into : lawyer he'll let you control a asset vara Hulan don't turn it into Hulan our words are the holiest thing that we are the holiest thing that we have that sadek rf3 Hirsh a Vadis love explain the purse a key door net their lawyer held Varro if a person makes a net if a person makes a promise lawyer held Varro don't violate it don't come up short on it don't not fulfill it and then the Torah says K holy Oh Timmy pity I said so he sees the following lesson here he sees each key door net there what happens you say I've had it I'm dieting I'm change it's not a diet no it's not a diet it's a lifestyle change a diet is that I'm for now I'm not eating that it's a lifestyle change carbs sugar flour lifestyle change key door neder the new peloton the new treadmill it's no longer a clothing hanger I'm gonna go on at 5 - no 6 times a week Shabbos I'll take off but this is not a new habit of exercise it's a lifestyle change yeah sure I'm gonna learn Shas the rambam Yomi just began I'm gonna finish the Rambam once a week all of Michelet oh you get soaked lusha I'm never getting angry again I'm never getting jealous again key door Ned there you get so excited you make a promise you make a pledge that's it I took a seminar on time management I took a seminar on how to organize my email I'm getting back to everyone that our no one will ever wait I'm changing my whole life kid or neder that's it that's it I'm changing everything Laura held Varro Kahala Yosemite Vyasa says that sadek ritzy Hersh couette said me pity I said means the same level of enthusiasm the same level of excitement and joy with which you took that promise or pledge kaha Lee Oates MEP Vyasa fulfill it don't let it wax away and don't let it wear off don't come a week a month a year later on that pledge oh yeah that was during coronavirus I said I'd exercises oh yeah I remember that during the pandemic I said I would I would behave in that way no keyhole ear to me pity I said look the same level of excitement that the same level of enthusiasm that you have when you'd be good when you began that project let it carry you let it carry you forward but it means something else also keyhole Yosemite Vyasa it means are we people who fulfill our promises our Wednesday mornings we learn Vasilis Ducharme for 10 minutes 10 minutes of meaning and we're up to the the Parekh of Nikias the third quality in the 12-step program to self perfection and it's called Nikias it's how do we ridden purge ourselves of the kind of behaviors and habits that sabotage our own success our own meaning and purpose in this world and we go through them one by one and the character trait the qualities that are I'll have been talking to us is about fulfilling our promise and our word if I say to you you know I'll call you back I'll follow through I'll take care of that thing I'll meet you at this time and then I'm perpetually late and then I don't follow through I don't call you back then I have violated my word what is the value of my word what is the value of of my commitment to you what is that relationship lo yah held Varro it has to mean something when I say simply an S to mean something in that context I told the story which I'll repeat here because it's it's worthwhile to repeat and that is um you know receptor more evil a bit of Shafter should be well who's been a hero for all of us during this time putting out two of us and giving us a lot of construction his broad shoulders that we that we rely on and lean on and stand down in times like this and it's so many beyond so he gives many many many she or I'm aware is that his voice that he drinks tea all the time and whenever you bring him tea he's been at my house many times shouldn't be many more please God rebby can I bring you a - yeah what are you taking it sweet and low sugar nothing I take it plain so he takes a point for many years since I've known him and well before so he was once challenged why why don't you take sugar why do you take sweet and low and after what of his tummy the matured him and and and challenged him so many times he finally told the story that fifty years earlier he had been in Israel when he was first married he and his wife the rabbits and went to Israel and they were in a home of somebody who wasn't strict with the laws of Castro's and offered him something he thought he was safe to a deity and the person said would you like sugar whatever the cash was complications of sugar in Israel but he said instead of saying I don't trust your Cassius he simply said I don't take anything in my tea and for more than 50 years since then since he uttered the word I don't take anything in my tea though he could have said look I was doing it machinima near Shalom I distorted the truth a little bit noted open it maintain and preserve shell and bias I did it in order not to insult the person I did it not to make a pillow a sham I'll do a tourist no dharam from that promise no homeless a suffice obvious a pastor can kiss a site which says motifs for socket ish more everything that leaves your lips you should keep and the same thing here karolius mep Piazza whatever leaves your mouth you should say don't use your words lightly don't waste them and don't turn them into who'll and lo your helper oh don't turn them into Hulan and in that regard I'll just end them we'll move on to the next section by telling you and I've shared this before as well and it's really really important during this time of pandemic and of pessimism during this time that people are so down and despondent that the lubavitcher rebbe is oh so y'all gonna lay no bow forever zakat a difficult of raha was very strict about the usage of words and he based it on our parsha they based it on understanding the Torah tells us that lawyer hell what you should not make Hulan is devar oh how do you say your word in Hebrew devar Oh Laura held Varro your de Bourgh to speak is de Bourgh your word devar Oh lawyer hell don't turn that into Coulomb and there have been noted that that same words Varro that same word Ybor which means to speak also the word devar means a thing you turn something into a thing by the way we speak about it our words matter our words create reality our words train form the universe and when we used those words lightly when we use those words mindlessly and thoughtlessly when we use those words insensitively when we use those words with no real commitment or plan to follow through behind them then we've created our de Bourgh's created a devar it's created a reality a thing we're not trustworthy we're not reliable we're not holy we're not elevated we don't seek to enrich other people's lives and this is something the rabbit drew from Kabbalah cabbalistic Li but it's also been reinforced through modern-day science and neuroscience neuroscientist Andrew Newberg and professor mark Robert Waldman words can actually change your brain they have a book words can change your brain and they write quote a single word as the power to influence the expression of genes that regulate physical and emotional stress MRI scans demonstrate a single negative word can increase the activity in the amygdala the fear center of the brain seeing a list of negative words for a few seconds will make a highly anxious a depressed person feel even worse and the more you ruminate on them the more you can damage key bearing structures that regulate memory feelings emotions and the impact your sleep appetite and sense of well-being and I won't believe at this point but when we use negative words incessantly pessimistic words when we use words that describe a despondency or hopelessness when we use words like quarantine and pandemic regularly then we wonder why we can't sleep or have no appetite or are filled with anxiety louia helped Varro the de Bourgh creates the devour it rewires our brains and it impacts our mental and our physical health and well-being and therefore the read that emphasized the importance of choosing those words incredibly careful there's a great article on Habad calm or get the rabbit unusual word choice by a tremendous comments and I highly recommend it I'll just give you a couple examples and then we'll move on the rabbit took this incredibly seriously he wouldn't use negative or pessimistic words because of the impact the de Bourgh on the devar the reality of the way we think and where we are so for example the rabbit disliked the word deadline he wouldn't talk to somebody about get your article in you're on a deadline what's the deadline for the project he preferred due date deadline Inc uses includes the word dead as opposed to due date describes the birth of something new creativity and excitement and again so we'll say a semantics and who cares and what does it matter many conversations I've had particularly with young people were you're trying to promote being careful with clean language don't curse don't use profanity and vulgarity and they say our words are arbitrary constructs of man what's the difference what do you what difference does it make anyway Lilya held Varro de Bourgh creates a devar it makes a difference it wires our brain you call it a deadline versus a due date and makes a difference do you call it a retreat or do you call it a conference a retreat sounds like you're going backwards you're regressing you're surrendering the rabbit didn't like it the rabbit didn't like undertaking projects undertake cannot have heartedness under is like underneath he didn't say you undertake a project he didn't describe geographical places or people as far away the rabbit who had such an impact on Kirov refused to call it outreach outreach suggests you're far and I'm close and I'm bringing you to where I am when the rabbit was asked for an endorsement on a hospital he said on one condition it's not called a baked Holum a place for sick people it has to be called a bate revoir a place for healing and for healthy people and the examples could go on and on I'll give you one more we know that there are four levels of existence you have the domain and then you have the samay arc the high and the end the person the Madaba first of all notice that the highest level person is the Madaba the domain we would normally translate in fact when one of the great rabbis was translating tania into english he translated the word domain as it's classically translated as inanimate and the rabbit corrected him and refused to publish a translation that way it said not inanimate because inanimate implies there's no connection to God there's no spiritual flow there's no energy in it everything in existence according to the tanya is influenced informed inspired only exists because there is an a flow of energy from a Shem so he changed he crossed out the word inanimate and changed it to the word silent the domain is sound the table in the chair of course are not inanimate they're animated by Hashem but it's a silent animation we don't perceive it as opposed to the soma the vegetative world and the high the animal kingdom and the highest level is not coincidentally the human being is described as the me Dada Lua hell devar Oh what differentiates us what distinguishes us would elevates us what reflects us is davara de Bourgh is our language the words we use the de Bourgh creates the devar creates the reality of what we of what we have and the list of examples could go on and on that the rabbit was careful lo you held Varro do not waste your words okay let's go fighter so this whole first section is about is about that taking our word seriously every year I share the rubs inside Kol Nidre night you don't Kippur the holiest day of the year and what does it begin with comb the dray comb the dry is there a more anti climactic moment in the world then getting on all white mouthwash getting ready to fast twenty five hours taking on the persona of angels coming together and what is our first act not to declare Sh'ma the Apple Erica moja not to talk about holiness and sanctity what do we do the very first thing to greet and welcome Yom Kippur Cole mid ray let us repeat three times this legalistic Liturgy of annulling our vows is there anything more anticlimactic is there anything more lacking in spirituality or excitement or energy to begin the holiest day of the year everybody salivate ryx said you know why began Kol Nidre night because you're about to undertake the process of repentance for twenty-five hours you need to know that your words matter they mean something when you took on this pledge and promise to be an observant Jew whether explicitly or implicitly you were born into it the promises you made to relate to others to be good to others kind to others to follow through with others we begin Yom Kippur by reviewing and reminding ourselves of the value of our words that they matter that they must mean something that low yah held Varro and we have the whole detailed section here which I wish we had time to go through so many insights on about--nah Dharam and how they're annulled husbands and fathers and bays dunes and what if you violated the spirit of your vow even though you didn't violate technically the actual law of your vow nevertheless Hashem you slack Allah you still need repentance and atonement from my Shem and why that is but we don't have time page 902 because we got two partials today Matos and masai we got a lot to get through para glamoured I love pasta alla page 902 in the article Stone kamesh the next section way - I'm emotionally more Nicole Nick massive in Israel is a medium a heart a safe take revenge against the people the Jewish people should take revenge against whom the media name why a heart is a fellow naka afterwards you will be gathered to your people Moshe urbane has given this last instruction it's time to take revenge the Jewish people don't get angry we get even we do what happened to the fact that we're not supposed to get even we'll seek in Vallecito we're not supposed to take revenge that too is not for now the whole Jewish attitude towards revenge but here we have Nicole NIC massive nael in fact we Davin a Barak I mean Hashem you should avenge the martyrs of the Jewish people how do you reconcile this parsha how do you reconcile that prayer with the prohibition that were not supposed to be avenge for people I'm giving you a lot of things that are not for now I want to make sure you continue to come back every week and every year for precious matters and Masek so we take this revenge against the million people with imaginary people do to us they actually were our kryptonite when bilham couldn't successfully curse us they sent a bunch of Mojave majani women to us and they took us down with promiscuity licentiousness they attempted us and we fell for it and therefore Moshe is told he called to mate Himalayan Matt Serra gather an army put together a mighty force the UN Agenda says Nick my session Bemidji on and now you need to avenge God's honor against million here too by the way there's a contradiction we called it Nicole Nick mass bnei yisrael whose honor are we avenging the Vengeance the revenge is for whom B'nai Israel and now just tube sukham later three become later las seis Nick Mass Hashem Dominion is it Nick Maz B'nai Israel or is it Nick massage em which is it so those of you who listen to sitter snippets which should be all of you if you don't you could listen on podcast or why you told her away from Goldberg every day you're our sign up for our whatsapp groups many times a week for the 6-minute set of snippets we just covered an azure sheer one of the commentaries one of the circle - Josh here is that we see that Nick massage a mannequin has been al are intertwined that they're one in the same when you mess with my kids if you're unkind to my children if you're cruel to my children if you mess with my children you are messing with me I don't say I'm avenging my children I say I'm avenging me my children are me if you're rude or discourteous if you're unkind or you're immoral towards my children I will destroy you I won't get angry because anger is prohibited but I will make sure to take care of you why you don't touch my children that's how coach borehole feels a Venetian bash a man is our Father so the Nakoma for us is against him and we reciprocate we feel the same way our whole mission our whole purpose here on earth is to promote and spread our name what is our name it's our family name it's our family value system it's who we are and to represent and if you're going to besmirch if you're going to violate my family name you can speak that way about my parents believe me you will pay a very heavy price and so the knick massage shamanism Israel are inherently and intrinsically intertwined they're one and the same our whole mission in existence here on earth is to be Mara Beckford Shamim to advance the honor of a Shem and as Jim has a very special relationship with us he is a Venetian mine we are burning metemma Shem we are his children and therefore he brings the attitude that if you mess with my children you're messing with me and we bring the attitude that if you mess with who we are what we represent hashem then you're messing with us so we therefore go against mijin telephone my telephone my telephone my toes so tisha Hulett Sava we recruit members for the army to go to war against the people of Midian why am i assuming I'll fail you start off with my - know myself looted servo by shark or some motion Moshe sends them out and who's gonna lead us who do we know is the most courageous warrior doesn't wait doesn't hesitate he is brave tenacious resilient runs headlong into battle who has proven himself very recently we are led by pin husband Eleazar Cohen let servo Luke Lakota squat so true so true be awed oh we've got our instruments we've got our weapons we are ready to go time to take on mid young to wipe them out to prove to the not only medium but to the world you don't mess with claro and you don't mess with a Shem so I'll tell you I saw a very interesting question and I heard this question from a seven and a half year old little boy I was learning parsha Sunday with my son shy and we were learning about the fact that the Jewish people are going to go to war and battle with Midian and he said to me a question I never thought of he said ABBA Moshe went to war with his father-in-law I had to think for a moment yes I was going million so in his mind associating Israel as being a leader of Midian he said to himself what do you mean Moshe went to war against his own father in law against yes row so it's beautiful he still thinks at that age that sons-in-law and fathers law would never go to war but Hashem they never should go to where they should get along I get along and love my father more like my father and I love my sons-in-law like my sons so but Moshe would go to war with you so I told him according to many opinions though it's a debate yes oh converted he joined the Jewish people but he said to me still yes sir was a leader he came from the young wouldn't it be hard for Moshe to lead a battle in a war against the very people that his father-in-law that his wife his wife grew up in Midian this is a realm town and now he's living battle I thought that was a fascinating question sometimes out of the mouths of babes they bring an innocent perspective when they're learning the parsha for the first time or for the first few times they bring a perspective we often don't so the Torah here tells us what happens they go to battle they go to battle and what do they have to do when they go to battle they Moshe rebukes the officers it gets them all ready and when they go to battle they Lama Dalai Lama Aleph Aleph they come back from battle but humor was our core knowledge about how they're successful they triumph Hashem is behind them they are avenging his honor and our own so what happens Eleazar Cohen our own son tells those who are returning from orso's focus at or assured siva shyam is Moshe what did they conquer at war they came back with you know every man knows and he goes on a business trip he'd better come back with something for his wife so they go to battle business trip that's their job and they better come back a song with their wife so there are no silver stores and there was no Godiva chocolate in Midian they could come back with what do they come back with the spoils the booty the loot of the war and what is the best spoils booty and loot honey I got you a new pyrex dish I brought you a new frying pan I got a new a new set of cutlery I got you a new set of they came back with all the kitchen appliances and utensils what's the problem mid young didn't keep kosher so here is where the Torah inserts the laws of how takács sure they triumph against Midian they bring back these utensils and now it's time to kasher but I want to draw your attention first to a very interesting anomaly when Eleazar talks to the people he talks to the people who are Allen shot Perik lama Alif chapter 31 verse 21 plus a Kavala page 906 in the article on how much the areas are going I want shave aha but in lymphoma about in Manama what do you mean how but inland Osama what should it say about him minimal Hama they not Harbor him lamelle Hama they're not coming going to war they're coming from war it should be a mem from war not Allah made let to war they're coming from war not going to war what's going on I saw the same Arriba Rubio she asked this question and also in the set is forum that nobody looks at that you got for your bar mitzva another thin little white my Jana shell Torah it's great stuff take it off the shelf dust it off every person doesn't matter how many years since your bar mitzvah you should be looking at the Miami shutaura there's great stuff in there I don't mean to denigrate the Miami short or maybe people look at it religiously makes a wonderful gift everybody should study it closely so in both places they ask the same question of both places they give the same answer the man of show Torah and relish and the Satmar ever they say the same thing why does it say how about a minimal karma not mean I'm no Karma they say the following I'll read it to you from the Miami show Torah they say for commerce Elvis Martina myself a hacer ahora para bull a Odom Jose mr. Mihama Smith him but listen batteries are neat sock on they safer focus all of us robustly even because that gives the example of Marshall that he once encountered a brigade a unit in the army and they were coming back from a battle they were coming back from a war and they were so jolly and joyous and happy and toasting my frame to one another because they had been successful so I Milani says so they might a meat sack them in Mohammed katana mutasa era de Luca it's feel like a Muhammad gaedola peak hammer I love him Mohammad Sayeed sir you're so joyous because you think you're coming back from a war you think you won and it's over and it's time to celebrate my dear friends and the brigade and the unit in the army you've won the small war but you're coming back to fight what is the much bigger and more daunting war and that is the war with the y8 Sahara your own success is going to breed arrogance your own success is going to breed ego your own success in that smaller war is gonna make you some one difficult to live with you become this person who micromanage and enforces yourself on others bahaha i'm sure i Tomodachi miss gamers BSA Kabakov ahah bucket or tommy to talk on so often you see this is hard officer soldiers they come home from war aside from the PhD the PTSD that they bring back but sometimes that that warrior that sense of might that power that adrenaline release the the sense of of hero syndrome of coming back can make it hard to re-enter and hard to get along with others and so he gives this muscle you're coming back from the smaller war but know that you're about to fight what is the bigger war geotubes armor gamma lhasa on shake god sava efficient clothes remember from esmigiel mocoso see Odin came by Muhammad Allah meet is not a messiah 8 sir you're coming back from the feeling from defeating I'm not like I'm not coming back from the feeling midian but you need to know you're about to engage before you let your guard down before you start stop fighting and battling you need to know you got another fight to fight wound us and omits us how girls kill Aramis lucky a terrorist Lee Bo say I'm Korra gosh guy about someone behind and what is the antidote to arrogance you need to purge arrogance is fire you're on fire with an ego how do you extinguish it how do you replace it how do you purge it with fire that's hot that's the Mitzvah of Nogales and Leoben Calum the midst of kashering caballo capital the way that you absorbed is the way that you have to purge so if you absorbed arrogance and ego with war with fire then you get it out with fire and that's why that is the law that it's given and he says in a nutshell Toyota dealers doesn't include this this answers a question of the run ban there I'm ban wonders here on our passion the following question the REM bond says is this the first battle this the first word the Jewish people are faced is this the first time the husbands are coming home from a business trip and they had to have something to give to their wives so they took the kitchen utensils and appliances now where else did they fight their own bond says we defeated Sehun for oke so we really defeated Sehun and oak and we came home with frying pans and cutlery and crystal and all kinds of wonderful new things for our dining room table in our kitchen so why weren't these laws given then why weren't these laws given them why don't we take the spoils so he says because mechanistic involved in start for coal beneath all below he a phone welcome legaia a Cabana it's a phone because when I came to see from the know all of the Jewish people participated in that war we all went so no one came back feeling superior to anyone else no one came back feeling more triumphant and their former arrogant over anyone else of a mccomus million he started action a muscle of nature all this only twelve thousand participated in and therefore they might have come home and after the parade celebrating their victory they might have displayed a dose of arrogance and that's why specifically here we need to be given these mitzvahs these mitzvahs so torah tells us what do you do you get new utensils what is the process what's the procedure what do you need to do we've mentioned some of these before we can expand on them now so first torah says us as as obvious accustomed closures are bars on the deal that's all for us the torah here enlist all kinds of medals all these metals gold and silver and copper iron tin and lead everything that comes in fire called a brush wave of HW baisha Taher after many days a taco shell of a fish a little bit in mine we have a principle Cibola catapult or the way something absorbs taste is the way a purchase taste those who learned snickers cover with me last year we went through these laws in depth many took the test and passed it means that a barbecue great a frying pan something where heat is the medium to impart taste heat is the medium to take the taste out to purge the taste where a liquid medium where a liquid is what imparted the taste then hug allah we boil water we immerse it in boiling water in order to extract the taste the way it goes in is the way it comes out however the Torre says something else you have to do but mainly does kata what you have to do with new calum if you get a new utensil that you acquire from a non-jew it's made by a non-jew what do you have to do with it you have to immerse it in the mikvah the camera make four please got a little bit more rain in our Kalin mikvah will reopen we're just waiting for a little bit more rain but in a lake in a river it has to meet certain criteria to be a Mahayana mikvah you have to immerse that new utensil before you can before you can use it why where does this obscure somewhat bizarre Holika come from i understand people immersed and they purify and they elevate through the experience of immersion but my utensils my utensils my pots my pan my fork my knives that really matters why why so the materia in the grammarian avodah Zarah the mission of al-azhar the amount of reserves where we have these laws and miri their rights the following Vilas Zoo Myka Vinci Karluk nice conditions mark hollows in a Michaela me chakra chakra shame Adam had been an actual offshore here connects Nelson blackened Usha that what is the experience as Fela anytime we put something in a mikveh we are transforming we're elevating we're giving it a sense of holiness we're taking it kind of like low you held Varro our speech can be coolin it can be profane mundane or the opposite the inverse it can be holy similarly everything material physical in our world are very calum our utensils can be used in a secular profane mundane way where they can be instruments they can be tools of holiness if I transform them the panini Harlock herbalizer Malamud the russian russia Shiva and the Rav of har bracha says the following in a safer panini ilaha says eh can India National gamma-ray and again we psycommu Chaka douches our Kela uh I'll also show you who did trickery as shown in the afghulis ago I lost a marginal amount see pocket IVA Allah he lo ruthless yours like a deletion of co-hosts ICS masam Tobin do you know why we have this whole holic of tools Calum when you learn this it'll change the way that you see Tobal and Calum the whole institution of tuneless Calum is to ingrain and engender within us a different attitude towards the act of eating that which the rest of the world sees as profane mundane animalistic necessary we see as an opportunity and invitation to holiness do we don't eat like a pig we don't eat like an animal we don't fresh rather we eat with sanctity with holiness we eat only with that which is kosher we make a bracha before and after that which we eat we invite others to with us we share what we have with others the food itself becomes the ability kaduche asahi 'la the holiness of eating we use it in order to in order to gain a holiness the holiness of eating the word laughs Emma and milk AMA are from the same root because bread there's a battle every time we eat are we going to do it in a mundane profane way or are we gonna eat in a way which elevates us which helps us achieve holiness so we live to eat do we eat to live do we eat the same way as somebody who doesn't have told her in their life do we eat in the same way that someone who's not in ever hm a year eh hm where is somebody distinguished in their eating what they eat and how they eat how much they eat how often they eat why they eat with whom they eat everything about our eating can say so much about us do we eat like everyone else or is our very act of eating something which reflects a yearning and an aspiration an ambition for greater holiness and therefore it's felis Calum just like the person who's impure becomes pure by going in the mikveh we take our utensils and we put them in the mikveh and when we put them in the mikveh we essentially affirm our intention that these utensils are meant to be instruments of not of profanity not of of something secular or mundane but there are instruments of holiness we transform them we put them in the mikveh and they come out in the same way that a human being who goes in the mikveh is able to reinvent themselves is able to start again is able to achieve a holiness and a sanctity so to our very utensils achieve that and have that goal and have that purpose referre share in our parsha also says something very similar and fascinating the total when it lists the utensils the material the ingredient of utensils that have to go in the mikveh tori gave five types of metal but metal is not the only biblical commandment many people don't realize this glass is also biblically obligated to go to the mikveh it's not listed in the Torah we extrapolate from metal because just like metal can be broken down melted and reconstituted so to the glass is something which is reconstituted glass and metal have to go to the mikveh earthenware does not plastic does not there are detailed laws of treeless calum which we're not going to go through now but why does the Torah specifically provide metal as the example and refers writes the following clean my tech as me at Sega Sultana rock nischala Adam ala Eric's via home raha lor actress Ackley ala gamma Homer Shalom AE - Hilton Z he says the following a very beautiful and fascinating insight he says the metal represents our control over the world because nobody ever finds or mines metal in the shape of a fork or a spoon or a pot or a pen when you see metal in the form of a utensil it means that man exerted our creativity our Dominion man exerted our innovation on it that we created utensil so man is able to take that hard material and we're able to shape it into something we take the material world and we shape it into something that has a purpose and has meaning and has a goal and therefore says refresh what is it for for the very act of eating which is an animal act we take a utensil which man shaped to have meaning and purpose to tell us that our eating should have meaning in purpose we don't press and we don't eat to satisfy some carnal animal urge but we eat in order to elevate in order to transform such a beautiful insight so specifically medal was given as the example why because metal is something that we manipulate metal we mold we form we shape and that is the attitude the mentality that we're supposed to have to our entire lives is to mold and shape and form our lives into meaning and purpose into instruments and utensils to make a difference and to be a difference in our lives and in the lives of others and that gives a whole new meaning teyla's Calum is not just off you gotta load the trunk the newlyweds all the gifts you gotta peel off the stickers and the sticky glue you gotta wait on line and the garbage is already overflowing and the water is disgustingly yucky and you drop the fork that fell out of the basket now you're gonna recover it and Felix Calum should not be some burdensome torturous experience it is it is such a beautiful elevating when you understand it in the context the myriad opinion Halawa refers it is such a beautiful elevating experience but see this kid who doesn't want to run to the Calum it for right now and total something and make this statement that are eating the utensil the instrument the molding the shaping of our lives is entirely different than those who eat for other kinds of purposes we said that everything that goes in fire anything that absorbed the taste and fire you have to purge it with fire so I'll tell you because we have to say in America and the vision of today but says the America and the holy vision it circled over a yellow beige honey beige anything that became that contracted taste through fire you purge it with fire called darshana gram idh for a mimosa Yeats Erebor became FM tavira also the H coded for army Moses labas limits was amassment ovum Vitolo hood Fela Avila map the Kevlar Cibola catapult o if you had such fire enthusiasm passion you ran to the internet to watch that thing you ran to the magazine you ran to give that gossip that Lashon Hara you ran to cut corners and your tax returns you whatever the sense of fire the drove you would to do the wrong thing is the same level of fire that you need to employ in order to pursue and chase doing the right thing Cibola caputo called de vache over ich whatever you did with fire then you need to get it out also equally with the pursuit with with a sense of with a sense of fire okay la midday hey let's keep moving we have barely begun there's so much more to say la man days we have the story the McNair Raphael of a god of a roofing two and a half of the tribes they're gonna take up are gonna take up residence east of the arting and they come then a roof ain't been a god and half of Menasha and they say we don't want to live with everybody else we're not ready to make alia because our business is east of the Arden mcnair raff we've got a lot of livestock and therefore it's much more convenient it's much more profitable for our business to in fact not live in Israel proper but to live east of the east of the yard thing so Riven and God put forth this request McNair Rafa 11 a God living they remember they got zoom mode they had a lot and motions reaction is how a cake I'm Yola mill come about temptation PO are you kidding me are you kidding me everyone else should risk their children's lives front fight on the front line and you're gonna sit conveniently and comfortably under your palm trees because this is where your business this is where it's profitable this is where it's more comfortable now you got to get over here you'll join us in fight and where we have the institution of tonight if condition and businesses learn from this section because Moshe gives them a condition you come in your fight then no problem you could take up residence there but you're not gonna let other people what bothered motion most or bothered motion most is not that Reuben and God were not Zionistic they were willing to live outside of Israel that's not what bothered him what bothered him was that they were not no say balloon cavero your brothers should risk their lives the rest of the community should be on the front line and you're sitting comfortably and conveniently this is a message for diaspora jury that even you know we're all obligated to send our sons into the into the army and make no mistake the IDF is protecting Jews all around the world and us wherever we may live and if we have a valid reason not to make aliyah yet we don't have a valid reason not to be struggling with al yeah but none of us have an excuse not to be supporting the IDF in whatever which way our soldiers were risking their lives in fighting the frontline - Yvonne Malcolm about temptation PO I'm not suggesting all of our children need to go and volunteer but all of us need to reach into our pockets you need to do what we can that is part of the message of this a very part of the big part of the message of this of this story Moshe gives them a stricken muster because they began and they said let us let us uh will build pens for our flock oh yeah we'll also build homes and schools for our children and and we want to settle here and Moshe says yeah you'll take care of your children and they take then you'll take care of your then you'll take care of their property so he's giving them a little bit of a loser that what needs to come first the priority in your life needs to not be your things but needs to be your people needs to be a relationship needs to be your family needs to be your children there's someone else on Hamish described as having McNair Rav but doesn't get that criticism Moshe here gives Musser gives tokoha there's someone else on chroma she's described as having McNair Rav lots of livestock wealthy Enya they're not criticised namely Avram Aveeno the Avram conveyed mode by McNabb back si vous avez des have Avram had a lot of livestock a lot of gold and a lot of silver and yet there's no criticism Hashem doesn't seem disappointed an out of room so the safer knock was three explains that with Avram it first mentions his name and then McNair why it's such a powerful lesson it says ulama Avram conveyed mode by make number he was Avram I'm from the ever - M I'm from the Avery are from the person oh he also happened to be very wealthy he also happened to have a lot of things but that didn't define him it wasn't who he was it wasn't intertwined and wrapped up with his very identity however when it came to Reuben and God who McNair Raphael a vegan a God who loved Nehru vein you know who they were known by they had the Mercedes the Tesla they lived in the mansion the private plane the yacht they wore the I don't even know their names the Ferragamo or whatever McNair Raphael of Nara grooving of ney God they were defined by it was wrapped up with their identity it's who they were so Avram Aveeno you're allowed to have and you're allowed to enjoy now is there nothing wrong there's something beautiful with having all that it can never define you you can never confuse it with who you are or what your life is about so first he was an avro defined by his use his ideals his personality his relationships with him with his family with others with uh Shem and only after that are we told that he also happened to have lots of things or in contrast Reuben and God had lots of things and then yeah that's what to find them that is in fact who they were puzzling Peres climate based us like hey well yo Murray matzo no claim BAE nothing you Thomas Arthur so Slava Decalogue whose alte IV renew sa yarding so my daughter my oldest daughter Raquel he once suggested this chatted or Shabbos table and then this year I saw it on the condition area I have to tell her but she was having to a kaduche a rim what is the food dish areum say Kadesh areum says the kudasai room says why is it described as why is it described why why did they want to go east to the iodine they had no Zionists the gleanings they didn't connect to the rest of Cairo was it simply driven by the vort we just said that they prioritize their things ahead of their people why is it that they wanted to go east of the yard thing so the finish our rooms has a beautiful voice you know why they wanted to do it not because they lack no se but all because they had an incredible nocebo not because they didn't care about their fellow Jew because they cared incredibly about their fellow Jew and who was their fellow drew they cared so much about was none other than Moshe Rabbeinu Moshe desperately wanted to get into Israel and no matter how many times he asked and how many times he requested Hashem said I'm so sorry but the answer is No so Reuben and God hatched this incredible scheme they said you know if we take up residency serve the are Dane and we expand the border a little bit that way then Moshe you will in fact have been in the greater Israel maybe not Israel proper but you will have been and visited in the greater Israel so therefore they requested east of the R this is a fiduciary m-- so that moshe rabbeinu himself would be able to be in and part of the greater Israel and in that way it's not a failure of being nosy but longer there oh it's an expression of being nosy but narrow that's why they requested it and then we have the end of the parsha which tells us Perik lama base couple of days that the NIC Bashar are at the finish and by our cartagia vu you better follow through on your word we made this condition you join us to conquer the world the land and then you can go back and take up residence where you want east of the our Dana and why do you have to do this the ECM McKee mash em Oh miss rile you need to be clean you need to be lucky you need to be clean in the eyes of others and in the eyes of and the eyes of a Shem you need to be clean in the eyes of others and in the eyes of a Shem miss olive a chicken the rubbish points out that the prohibition of Mara Sian involves avoiding doing things that very suspicion that you're violating halakha he quotes here there are ma that you know the Ramos says they used to produce milk from almonds people wanted a power of coffee so yet almond milk so their chef and Arthur and my quotes that if you're drinking almond milk after you had me you need to have almonds on the table next to the milk so people will know right when when non-dairy creamer first came out hashem acquired a simpler that you actually had the container of the non-dairy creamer or some sign that it's non-dairy creamer less to be ma rasayan you just served Affleck Sudha and now you're putting out milk so you had to have the bottle you had to have the carton of non-dairy of non-dairy creamer it's Alaka in show Canara because of Maura Sian Maura Sian why do we have an institution amara sign what do I care what people think if I go into Burger King to get a Diet Coke or use the bathroom what do I need to be concerned with someone thinking about why I'm there if I'm drinking what I know to be on man milk non-dairy creamer what do I care that someone thinks that I just am having milk right after I have me who cares as long as I do the right thing don't have to answer to myself don't have to be able to look in the mirror don't have to be able to sleep at night why do I care what other people think this is the Torah's reason says the rub this is the source of Marcin Liam the Keon mash em who me Israel you need to be Nucky Mishima me throw we do care we do care what other people think and here he says doesn't my focus is my mother ma hsiao and the two reasons of Mara Sian according to one minus sign is a prohibition of lift nay either because if someone sees me coming out of Burger King they don't know I had a diet coke or use the bathroom they think I guess Burger King went under the o RB if somebody sees me drinking milk and my coffee after having meat they don't know it's almond milk they think I guess there's a new cooler coronavirus cooler must be there in coronavirus you're allowed to have dairy right after me so the first understanding of the prohibition of MRSA it's a function of lift neither you're putting a stumbling block in front of somebody else they're going to misinterpret and not know what you've done and they're going to extrapolate the wrong conclusion and they themselves are going to violate law however the MA that's the marshal however the Ramat understands matter sign differently my rasayan is not a fear that I'm gonna put a stumbling block in front of you mara Sian is I'm not allowed to speak loshon Hara about myself just like I can't gossip or misrepresent or distort things about you I also can't do so about myself so to give you an impression about me that's not true is a violation of it's a violation of of lush Nara about myself least in the qiam visa manikyam you have to be pure you have to be holy you have to represent truth you have to represent yourself very very well reverser wise quotes a third reason reverser White says via Makena scheme' me sir all he quotes an incredible slam safer the sam sofa in Chile's kayla gloves him and

are put here to live a certain life and carry ourselves in a certain way and if we conduct ourselves in a way that people can be suspicious then we've created a collection so at the core of this Mitzvah because I'm so for wonders whether anyone has ever kept in all of time is the potential problem of having made a killer Hashem ok a lot more to talk about let's remember the parishes ma say we got to give some love to precious mas a precious master page 918 in the Earth's crust on how much para kilometer Gitmo chapter xxxiii a la masturba nice well she ought to merit Switzerland civil some be a demotion Aaron let's review everywhere we've been it's time now to go through all the stops along the journey let's go all the journey the mugging of Rome writes in the commentary and sure enough the mugging of rum says that this is so important to review the journey that it's also to break it up the Aliyah that includes all the stops of the journey we have the custom we don't break up that Aliyah it makes for a very long first tally of partials masse that's how important it is to read this and to read it all as one unit what is so important about it what's going on here says Rashi lemon if Thomas are so lovely why are we reviewing all the places I've been imagine the end of someone's life what we lived we lived there we took a vacation there we stopped here I worked at that company we went here we went here okay oh that's nice why are you taking our time now with it I was there with you I remember I read the book I read it all I lived it all says the Rashi Lydia casado Sean McComb it's telling us a college bar whose incredible loving-kindness Rashi says the main purpose that we're delineating all of these places that were reviewing is to consider the first fourteen journeys took place during the before the maragua for sixteen months eight happened in the back end after the 39th year so even though the Jews were condemned to forty years in the desert and we thought that we were packing and unpacking all the time Rashi tells us the first shot is Hashem is incredible kindness that we stayed in most in one location in Kadesh for twenty years we were not in fact such wandering nomads Hashem was so kind to us that he structured things in such a way that we were not wandering that often and that's why we're reviewing this in order to see how James rested in order to see and feel his loving-kindness Rashi has a section second chat namely VOAD hosting michelle customer social hour mrs. Erin and Sam Mazzola were of different - with Marsha lamella shabonneau whole of a little mahkum rockin good floor so it's a Marshall a person gone for a bit of a sick child and you traveled far in order to try to treat this child came at Rao's from his club of Monaco my sauce on the way back of successful treatment you start to always stayed in this hotel and we had a layover in this Airport and then we went over here remember the Toblerone bar I bought you when we pass through Switzerland Oh Malik and Yosh on the counter car Nicastro Shaka these were all the places we stopped these are all part of the process of our journey this reminds all of this reminds us about where we came from what is really going on over here so I just want to share a couple of insights with you this for know this for know says you know what's going on over here let's go right back to the medieval sources them a fortune this harness says you know what's going on over here as soon as I find this for now I will read it to you where did he go to of Avadh yes or no there it is a llamaste on the matzah I am it says these are the Massa and these are the journeys the goings out in the coming in and we reverse this language and we change this language and which is it is the going out of the coming in is it the journey of the standing still and says thus far on the in car ahead Baxter we keep switching it back and forth which is it because of gongqing Indian have master Charlotte says Moo Makka Moo Makka Moo but lyac dumbest idea shy is a customer over hose alone in new but faint nectar the whole arc of mayhem I assume I'm accompanied by a colleague Malcolm Palani Kamisama hanya hiya Cole I've had mayhem kasha sometimes the going out was difficult sometimes the coming in was difficult the Swarna says you know we have journeys and we have departures in life sometimes you leave in order to go and sometimes you go because you need to leave sometimes there's a destination you're going to so it's time to leave and sometimes you need to get out of here so it's time to go and you don't even know where the destination is and says this fara both are hinted to the Jewish people on their journey and the sifrit Kabbalah all has seen the sheer ebb is talked about that all these stops and all these journeys reflect and represent what each of us have what every Jew has in our life our lives are made up of journeys of travels of so germs and sometimes we get up and we go because we need to leave it was time to leave Eastern Europe in the 20th century some think it's time to leave North America America now sometimes you get up and you need to leave because it's time to leave long before you know where you're going and other times you want to go you know in order to go you get up and leave so in either case this Warner says it's represented in these journeys which really reflect our attitude to in life the refined McCulloh is a different interpretation the higher colour says the following says the orihime Americo savate small town Eloy musasa Ella shame Shelburne Ezra yells American shame that sword for Bakura bars Oceania time who was a hyena Schmo shimmer Queen Levana to Theodosia the Houma can assure you of Osama it's a very powerful cabbalistic idea and the idea is the following wherever we go in life and whatever we've been through in life is part of our journey we could regret it we could wish it didn't happen we can reject it we can try to delete it but it's part of shaping who we are instead we should embrace it and we should realize that our mission and our challenge was whatever part of our journey whatever stops made along the way was to be able to enable it to transform us was VA belit with kedusha the Jewish people took out the barks of holiness every place they stopped they were meant to go there this is one of the ideas of the exile Hashem dispersed us across the world to take our Jewish values and ideals and to bring it to every civilization in society in which we we were destined to live it's one of the understandings of why we were spread out in the Exile that's true collectively and nationally and it's also true independently and individually for each and every one of us going through Korona going through a pandemic going through a hard time we're not supposed to live with regret and wishes we're supposed to live and say what am I meant to take out of this how is it meant to make me better or different or transform me why is this one of the stops on my journey why am I here and why was I destined to stop here so just like I saw had all these stops and had to review them so - we go through the same we go through the same experience let's end with one more vote I want to talk about why is that most are KO'ing why is the person who kills by accident who sent into a near McClure the City of Refuge why is why are they there until the KO'ing why is it tied to the Cohens life the Kohen Gadol till the Kohen Gadol dies what was the coins responsibility to Davin for his generation it's a lot to talk about that but with all the time so let's go to one last thought Perik Lambeth hey Kasich of Dalit chapter 35 verse 24 on page 930 in the arts girl stone Commish says the pasok pedicle laminae Kasich craft our ania shem sorry Gnostic blonde adalat lama Dalit page 9 32 the lote at Emmaus Arts Artemia Xinhua we have these are in Nicollet someone murders by accident we set up the cities of refuge we have three in Israel and three east of the iodine why the two-and-a-half tribes need as many cities of refuge as the other nine and a half tribes you know why our rabbis tell us because the two-and-a-half tribes prioritize their things when people prioritize things they end up having more accidental murderers in their midst and people who don't protect prioritize things but prioritize ideas and values have less accidental murders in their midst so you need two three four nine and a half and three for two and a half tribes east of the yard thing in any case the Torah says reload time it's a shot time your Simba do not contaminate the land that you are dwelling on our initial hain Basara says God why because you know who else lives there it's my house you're a guest in my house God says the land is my house don't make it dirty don't contaminate it don't soil it ganya shamsher kinda so piss off man israel says hashem because I am a Shem and I dwell and exist among you llevaba is a beautiful comment on this and the Republic can be found in his safer a leash or

Detroit in Chicago in LA in South America and Australia in South Africa it's your house that's your space how is the sound of Nahum it's yours but when you come to her to throw it's my house says this for now he never gave it to us he continues to do well there well if we'd ever as far inland abets draw along he knows Paris or logo for Arts which means that you never really own properly in Israel because it really continues to belong to God all along so what do we have in Israel we don't actually have ownership in the land all we have and all we have access to is the pay rose the fruit of the land what it produces and that's why are you ready Allah Allah my see here I'm glad you stayed with us stay with us one more moment that's why in the braja corona what do we say in the brahaman Xolos
