Parshas Eikev: Rabbi Akiva's Shocking Teaching - Who Is Really Closest to Hashem?

this torah class is brought to you by torahanytime.com okay come on uh being that i may not be here next week so uh in preparation for next week's pasha practice akev so we're going to examine a very important indian that we come across um practice akev and this is something that is not just for next week's passion but it's a fundamental point in our observance not just of mitzvos in particular but our general uh connection to ubanisham the positive says hashem fear hashem oyster him you should worship cling to him swear in his name that's what it says in eikev a little bit earlier than that the pasta says what does hashem ask of you only to fear hashem okay so that pasta the maramaka number two actually comes first that pasta says you should fear hashem so presumably then the uh pasta in your huff which comes to come after is atari just repeating itself it already said what is it so we have a famous drasha the gemara himself based on the base says and he would darshan every s in the torah in other words you know if you'd ask what did he do for a living what you know what does she do what do you do for a living you know he wasn't a carpenter he wasn't a tailor he was a s specialist he had a problem he went through say for voracious he dashed never yet when he separated in other words he threw in the towel he retired he called it a quits he called it a career and he formally retracted on any shear he ever gave in his life you know if he looked him up the number of shurim he had thousands of shiron s and voracious right the 50s embraces s1 s2 s3 s4 he at the end of his long career he threw in the towel he erased all the shirim he said that's it i was wrong um and what's going to be with all the shiren all the cds what's going to be yeah um he said no kishem just like i get reward for all my jurassic so too i get reward for separating from everything i darshan until now in other words hashem rewarded me for all my efforts and teaching torah now hashem's going to reward me for retracting everything i ever taught that's the life of shimon ham sunni in other words somebody who invested his whole life every fiber of his being in darshan essen the end of his life he sees he was wrong he formally admits he gets up to the podium he says marvel my whole life everything i ever told you was wrong forget it forget it don't forget anything i ever said at shabbat be a kiva until rabbi kiva came along vidarash and he darshan then not only do you have to fear god you have to fear torah scholars what does this mean why couldn't she sunni think of this what shown sunni you can imagine if he thought of an explanation for every yes in the torah i could guarantee you he thought of ravi akiva's possibility and why did he reject it he rejected it for the simple reason that how could you say you have to fear someone other than god how could you include somebody other than god what kind of audacity is that it's almost heresy fear god and also what do you mean la robles who else could you include besides god so shimano sunni thought of ravi akiva's possibility and he rejected it until ravi akiva came along and said no you can include someone other than the revenge them and who is that what exactly is this what went on over here does rebbi akiva's drosha have anything to do with shimon hum sunni's retraction what about had shem sunni not retracted would rabbi akiva ever come up with that okay we have another gemara vasata raka's on daflam and gimbal base says shamayim everything is in the hand of heaven besides for fear of god in other words everything that happens to a person how much money you're going to make who you're going to marry what your kids are going to be like everything is in the hand of god there's nothing you can do about it nothing you can do about it the only thing within your control the only thing that you have capacity to change is yours you could choose to fear god more you could choose to fear god less but every other thing that happens in your life no matter how much you think that how much money you make it depends on how hard you work or your ingenuity or creativity nothing that a person does has any effect in this world other than choosing yes the positive says look at number two you know the only thing that god wants from you he's just asking you a little tiny thing all he wants you to do is just fear him so the gemara asks what you see what is fear of god such a small thing is there's such a clanakite that that all god has in his treasury ella oyezer just the storehouse of heaven in other words we know the most valuable thing in the world to god is your shamayim so how could all god wants is just to have a little fear of god what are you this is such a small thing in god's treasury the only thing he values is your shaman like the positive says you ask a guy for a million dollars if he's a billionaire it's like you're asking him for nothing you ask a guy for a hundred bucks if he's an arnie the avion it's like he does too much so everything is relative so fear of god too much was a piece of cake my shabbat no fear of god was the easiest thing in the world so yeah moisture is right kendall all god wants you to do is have some years shania is it so easy yeah for me it's a piece of cake so all the mufashim and the first cousin ask oh wait a second much is talking to the jewish people yeah so very nice for him it's easy but you got to know your crowd you got to know the audience how could he have the uh can we say the lack of understanding but what what's saying mosha baby says oh god ask him what do you mean all that for us it's impossible for us it's so difficult for you it's easy yeah for you it's easy but why would mushroom say it in a way coming from his vantage point he's talking to the banana throw from their vantage point that's very hard he should say binay israel you can't even imagine what god wants you to do it's so much it's so difficult so this question is raised by the dubna magid and the dublin maggot in two places in pashas tazria and apache he tells us that he actually had an opportunity to ask how going he says said i had the opportunity to ask the vulnera guy in the following question and that is he says rebecca how could one jew have an effect on another jew how could one jew be mashibiya on another jew here you have a guy he doesn't want to keep shabbos he won't keep shabbos and if he wants to keep shabbos he will because i say something it's going to affect him he knows about shabbos how could ruvain be mashibiya on how how could you affect somebody what's the mechanism how does it work after all the same way i don't control how much money i make and you don't control how much money you make i can't control how many missiles you keep only you could do that so how could ruvain be mashivian shimon if she wants to do the right thing he'll do the right thing and i'm sure doesn't want to do the right thing you want to how could you have a spawn somebody else very interesting question says the only going he gives a martial says like this you have a cup in the middle it's surrounded by other cups if you pour enough water in the middle cup then it fills up it fills up it fills up it fills up to the point that it overflows the overflow will go to the surrounding cups right yeah but we're here we're doing there there are no spouts underneath right there it happens here if you have one cup in the middle and the cup surrounding the only way for the cup in the middle to overflow to the other cups if you pour so much water in fine it says of illness if you have somebody he could talk from today till doomsday he could say every story in the world and he could have the audience crying from his myself and and he's it could be the biggest baldarshin and the best speaker in the world guess what the people aren't smiling they walk out you know what they get nothing zero zero they say yeah he's a good speaker well you know we'll hire him next time but you want to know what they get nothing you know how much they change nothing tissue no you don't get anything yeah you don't get you don't get anything from speaking no not video cloud always derek means 99 always means never you get nothing so how does somebody affect somebody else says of only going the only way to do it is if you fill yourself up so much that there's enough to go around now it could come across when it's being expressed but otherwise those film are going persuasive talking talk is cheap doesn't do anything yeah maybe if the person wants to learn so they'll go they could learn from a safe they could learn from a person but in terms of hashball hashtag has to be overflow so they're from my shopping no kidding they all came by talking all this kid with my the people themselves the people themselves they're exposed to tyra and they make the choice the same way i could learn from a safer they learn from the person but for the hashva the mechanism of ashwas says you want to read it let's take a look he says on a number five about ten lines from the bottom vani and i the osc bevel no when i was in how is bounty going to come to somebody else how can a sadiq affect the generation haitianly says the guy and then certainly this was roy lamisha i'm right because you know the vilnigan did not go around darshaning then the guardian sat in this with even during the day he sat with the shutters closed right so he answered like this martial it's like a big ashar kalam katanam surrounded by small calendar me called son you stand the tishbo goddal if you pour into the bigly bully have sick without interruption but if the big cup is not filled kaushik certainly it will not get at all to the other cups according to the only gun the way to influence somebody else is fill yourself up which has not with as much torah as much your shamayim as much middle s that will have a ripple spillover effect ah so says says it doesn't does anymore this is right right in other words but the way the only gun says here you have a someone like developing he's putting so much years shania he's already up to capacity the more he puts in that spills over it has like a it's almost natural he's he's he's putting it into other people he has more to go around that's the way he understands the way that the first let's say the assistant mr managed to learn from the mistress what does that pick up with the people outside the college that was never seasoned never from the county that's never going to be affected you got to go to heaven or go to his eye somehow by myself or by the moon you can't if you have no contact if you just sit there could be the villain says you have a big clue with little caleb around it if the little kim are not next to it right so there has to be association there has to be opportunity to learn from them which might be the venue of of giving the shirt or giving the speech or giving the lecture that's the venue to allow the other caleb to be there right the villain gun is not you know he's not um antagonizing against the care of movement he's just explaining the mechanism of how hashball works hashball is not oh oh look at that guy yeah i'm gonna i'm gonna do what he says no it's this person he fills himself so much that there's more to go around so with this says maggit i understand the gemaran brachas also gemara and aflame and giveaways that we just learned the gemara asked moshe gives a drasha all god wants from users is your shema i'm such a small thing says to myself it's a small thing so we asked god after moshe but to me and you it's a hard thing so why would moshe say that's all that god has on you says that if it's easy for moshe then all you need to do is hang around moshe rabino and it will be easy for your to you too because it will rub off on you that's the meaning of you're right inherently innately it's only easy for myself for me it's hard but if i make it my business to walk with my sham to talk to my shen to hang around moshe it will spill over to me and just like it's easy for him it will be easy for me also he'll rub off on me for me if i would sit in my room and try to get your shamayim forget it it would be a herculean task but the more you associate with your maisha with the talmud it will rub off on you okay says the magic now we understand the gemara and then says it says god how in the world can a person fear hashem either you fear him or you don't fear him if i'm not feeling it how do i feel it how do i engender feelings of europe the answer is s rabbis you want to know how you can acquire yura hang around walk with them talk with them make an association with them do business with them marry your daughters to them have as much to do with them as possible this way how are you going to fear god that's the meaning says that the only way to fear hashem is through the association of yes laravels okay so that's a very important understanding of this gemara that rabbi kiva is saying that you shamayam is not an easy thing you can't see hashem hashem doesn't talk to you directly so how is the person going to acquire your hashem you need to get someone to rub off on you so the s the rabbis not just by the way fear god and also a side point you should also feel fire tamina no it's telling you the vehicle with which you could acquire your recession it's s how do you come to fear hashem hang around okay that's the way the dum num understands it based on based on the comment of the vilnigan therefore take a look at number six at the last five lines therefore the admonition comes there is no other way to achieve europe it's not easy it's a very hard thing you need to have those for that for those who are easy you needed to rub off them okay that's the explanation of the dubna maga says ramorika gifter that he heard a wonderful shot in the name of the tells the rav hashemi an awesome shot an amazing chat incredible cesar of gifter why does the gemara say that only after shimon haram sunni darshan davies in the torah came to us realize he has no shot for it retracted on everything he ever said only then ready akiva said s says listen to what the tells of said why did shimon ham sunni why was he so hesitant to say s is the rabbi's taming because in his mind how could anything compare to god right this week god says is there anything that could compare to me right now yeshua no nothing compares to god you're going to say i'm going to fear my russian shiva like god how can you even say such a thing so showing home sunni formally retracted every dresser he ever gave really akiva looks at shimla sunni and he's astounded here's a man for the last 70 years every torah he ever said was he darshan so this man for his entire life he's dashing every asset of time and then he gets to parish akev and he says so if i was shuman amsuni you know what i would say it's taco i'm not sure what the drusher is well i'll get back to you on that it's not a regulations right all the answers the rabbis know how to give when they don't know the answer right i'll call you i'll let you know i'll call you later right why did she sunni can you imagine such a thing he had he retracted every single thing he had to say why don't you say maybe there was a mistake in the safety the fact the honesty of sunni the honesty of the talmud the search the quest for truth that after darshaning making his entire career out of this principle in the torah he's able to say you know what i don't know the answer here and therefore everything i ever told you is wrong ribbia cuba was misspelled that there could be such ms in this world wow this is godly there's somebody else you have to fear besides god where did he learn it from sunni says he started from the beginning he saw thousands of s 99 percent of them hit him right away what the joshua so he started and he started with voracious you know and he's he darshan the s he didn't come up within a second but presumably you know he learned the whole time many times it was the word s was something that that taught that spoke to him that that he had a shot for in every other instance but when he got to this posture he threw so in other words the fact that could be so interested in truth that's what inspired yakiva to understand the greatness of a tamil and therefore bikiva said ah a man like shimanoam sunni teaches the world that you could include something else other than god beautiful chad take a look this is brought down the safe route look in the second paragraph at number seven you bothered himself he wearied himself he tired himself to be able to find a meaning in every s in the torah and he only asked is one question imagine somebody wrote a thesis right he's explaining every single time a certain phenomenon imagine a guy comes and says let me explain to you the mystical meaning of every review in the torah so how many reviews are on there are thousands and there's one review that has shot doesn't work out do you know anyone on the right mind would say oh it must be i'm wrong he would say you know it's ask kosher that this movie doesn't work out you know but with vietnamese right no shimon soon he had a a proposition he had a thesis but in one position the torah didn't work out he had the intellectual honesty he was able to separate pearus i was mistaken in everything i told you it must be that everything i said about this is not true this type of honesty this kind of ability and the ability to retract that was his life's work his life's work right imagine someone he dedicated his life to search for a certain thing imagine that on his last day he said you know what i was wrong my life was a waste of time nobody would do that right hamasiros nephesh this self-sacrifice for what for the torah for truth is a different specie is a different level is in a way is a divine being it has a certain divinity to him so therefore says s rabbis says the author of kam quoted in the das another very important limoud we could learn from shimon ham sunni you ever argue with somebody about like a heated issue where people have very strong opinions you ever argue somebody about israel or about um you know any of should you say hollish right those kind of things people are very strong opinion did you ever get somebody to agree to you i don't think it ever happened why because human being the gemara says there's a hazaka a person will maintain their position because to give up their positions is a way of saying everything i ever said was wrong now if a person formulated that opinion about a minute ago you might be able to convince them but a long-standing opinion that somebody has no way there's no way you'll get them to change and let's say honestly that ourselves have we ever maintained the position for a long time and switched on it it doesn't have it's not human nature just not human nature human nature is the longer you maintain a position the longer you maintain it the more you the longer you held that way the more you have invested in it the less likely you'll ever change your mind or let's say like this let's say like this let's say you learned to have shatna gemara a certain way are you gonna change well if this is the shot you just thought of this second and someone tells you a better shot so then you might be willing to change but if you learned uh a certain way for 50 years there is no way in a million years who is likely to change their opinion or their shot in something only somebody that just formulated it because they never really psychologically invested themselves in it so they're more likely to change their mind someone who will maintain a certain way their whole life very you see from here the godless of shimon ham sunni in the tana his entire life was based what was his life's work s s but he got to one pasuk and he could not figure it out so what did he do i was wrong forget it as if he's a little kid learning it for the first time in other words the truth it's not the chat when they're 15 years old the rebbe told them something and that's it they don't budge they never revisit it no to a real time every position they have is as if they they just figure it out and learned it today and they're constantly able to revisit and revisit everything and say well maybe i'm wrong about this maybe i'm wrong about maybe things are different now maybe halakha changes they say there of maisha that every time he was posed with the question he didn't say well no he went through the sugiya every time that's the godless of a real time in you don't just say i mean unfortunately us on our level we're not necessarily capable of that but someone like shimon sunni you see the godless that when he was presented with the question how was he able to retract because to him this position that he held even though he held it his whole life it was it was first developed that moment and therefore he's ready to change it possibly very very important lesson for us to learn look at number eight admiration how you mother the author of kel would point out the gummara gummara says in babakama the whole discussion hamsuni rabbi akiva on the fifth line of showing you keep him shallow rabbis and commercially we see from here an awesome and human nature is to stand behind their shita if you belong to a certain community then eric deserves like this and if you belong to a different community arizona's like that either it's kadashim or vice versa you ever get somebody to to change your opinion it never happened why of it is human nature is you maintain your shita now it could be sometimes that's the right thing to do there's a certain concept of messiah but nevertheless things that people come to intellectually really a person should have the honesty to say let me think it over again let me think it over again maybe you have a valid argument i would say almost every argument in the world the two people are they're not they're not listening to each other they're not even talking to each other they're not they're not listening no you can speak for yourself i'm thinking i'm i'm living in my world you're living in europe and i can't talk to the wall so i'm happy you're standing opposite me but it's not a conversation even so he says like this human nature is to maintain a shita even something if you just learned to type this and you just came up with sanitizes you will still not fudge from your chat even though you just thought of it one second ago you held it your whole life because i thought of it so so he says mikoshi king that i'm sure he could have thought of cuba's terrorists really shouldn't but honestly deep down he didn't feel that slip shot for actually nearest joshua the madness that anything they ever said to them it was as if they just came across it and they would discuss it and they would analyze it and if at any point in time they would find a contradiction they're ready to to renege and to retract says you say because of them is a professor he said everything's egotism everything will be human being you do evil even tolerant ego the guy would have to say but if you maintain the point it's guide you can't give in so the person gives in not only ms is also another i'm gonna it's like a competition review the jewish people are like anar and i love them if would say you know why god loves the jewish people because we don't say we're we're there we've arrived we consider ourselves like a nar it's a certain media that a jew has that a jew is able to consider himself at all times developing we're always developing we're always no matter how big we are no matter how old we are no matter what we know what we don't know we're concerned of developing and we have the adaptability the flexibility to be able to revisit and re-examine what we learn okay that's another lemur from this gemara comes with mayor shapiro ramirez shapiro really a very creative understanding of this gemara when shimon huam sunni got to the passage he's separated which literally means he separated from all the joshuas he ever gave he retracted what did rabbi akiva do la rabbo is listen carefully beautiful there are two mahakam in life there are two mahakam and serving hashem a person could sit in his four cubits learn torah put his palace uber in cup go in the corner ignore people and be involved in his own personal development because after all we know everybody knows all this farm tell us the best way the safest way to come close to hashem is his seclusion so you go into your own four ammos and if people talk to you you don't really have friendship with any people you don't you're not involved with people but this way you separate yourself in a way from the ways of the world in order to remove yourself this way you'll never speak washing haro you'll never speak shekel you never speak late sonos you never speak i know right this way that's the best way to do it perish that's how how else are you gonna come to fear god but there's another way so listen carefully shimon huam sunni got to the passage as hashem you have to fear god how's the person going to fear god going to fear god walking down the streets of new york going to fear god talking to people kind of things people speak about you know you're going to deal with people you deal with other human beings they're going to drag you down p raised he separated from the ways of the world he went into his four amuse he put the talus over his head he didn't involve himself with the seaborn that's the only way to get to euro shamayim when shimonom sunni got to the position he's separated from the ways of the world says rabbi akiva that's not the way to do it you know how to get your shamayam you gather the people together es le rabbois tamide the way to do it is to increase as many tamiya as possible teach as many talmudim as possible spread the torah as much as possible bring in the masses that's the way of the euro shamayam don't be an island unto yourself don't just think i worry about myself i'll sit in my towels i'll sit and lights fill in and let the rest of the world drown in the marble no that's not the path to your shamayam shimanam sunni pirish that's the correct path in life to increase as many times as possible says and this of course was advarim right these are this is ramer shapiro's take on the gemara of course we know ramirez shapiro built probably the greatest edifice of yeshiva in the history of the jewish people leblanc where he traveled to all the yeshivas in the world to take the best of the lupus yeshua's and hungarian yeshivas and the polish yeshivas and he assembled the greatest library any yeshiva ever had his goal was to disseminate torah to the masses and increase as needed as many tamil as possible yeah so look what he says number nine the imrae das of ramayana shapiro is to the summit to the peak of fear of god what did sunni do i'm sunni mayor he separated from the world um he lacked himself up in his four cubits came to a different conclusion it's very interesting we know the one of the great talmudim of rabisto wrote a biography on review solante it's published with the hispan shahri r he wrote a biography called nasi voisar and he writes about review churnings his inner wonder his inner strivings to try to identify the correct path in life review and in his youth he was trying to search out and seek out what's the correct path in life what's the path in life that god wants should a person just develop himself should a person go out to the masses what's better what does god want would a god would hashem rather a person just died and learn by himself like the vilna going maybe seems to say fill yourself up with as much torah as possible and will spill over or should the focus be on le rabbis so look over here look at number 10. he says cain the al-dusai in the youth of rabisto salantar kasha galla libay the dark hashem when his heart was great in the ways of hashem the toy gave to kasa kasaya young man his righteousness was at its glory although the dayton he had in mind he's going to separate himself to go hide in the corner the torah nist are to be a secret not to connect to separate from mankind entirely but to hide his khakma revisa santa said i'm going to work on anivos nobody will know what i am um nobody will know what sadiq nobody will know what my customs are shilla yakiro is this way people won't know i'll be a secret sadiq i'll be a closet sadiq nobody will know my mom nobody will know my sitcos he'll get a little house his picture is not going to be and nobody will know who he is nobody's going to bother him this will be able to sit and learn like a mensch he started if you want to fulfill the way of god we know manitz they lacked themselves up in secret nobody knew about them they wandered from city to city this is very important however look at the next paragraph he won't be able to accomplish for torah he won't be able to spread torah he won't be able to to bring people in he won't be able to to achieve for the sake of torah or if you're a secret closet sadiq you won't be able to hear the raven alcan lava illahamikaze what's better is it better just to sit to learn to be a secret sadiq nobody knows about first of all if you learn you'll learn the shame you're not learning because people are going to hear how smart you are how great you are if if you sit right you'll be able to dive in yo to learn the shame shamayim you'll be able to serve hashem you could you won't be disturbed you won't be distracted people someone who people knows about so many people waste their time people don't realize that have rachmanis on on gadolin and sadiq don't waste their time people go to sadiq and they talk to them about nonsense it's they're not your friends you associate you walk with them listen to what they have to say people you can't imagine on the other hand on the other hand so it's better to be a secret closet saudi but then you can't accomplish for the sake of torah sir so cilantro weighed the choices he said hashem that's not what god wants god does not want the tsaddik to sit in his closet and be a closet sadaq somebody hashem gave khama and yirah to share ruach lloyd whiffle you should have taurus hashem who could accomplish for the torah hashem does not want them lay shave better to sit securely in their house and what about according to the situation of the generation hamas hashem you can't be silent just like in this world imagine a guy like this imagine a guy he says well he said what do you do today today it's right after the nine days what do you mean what did i do i went to uh the shawarma place and i eat shawarma the whole day the whole day i just voided us i didn't want anyone to disturb me i ate at le shma so i could enjoy it i turned off my cell phone i brought i brought 50 shawarmas i brought into my closet and nobody knew about it only me and hashem so what do we say about the guy he's a glove he's a glutton you're eating yeah you're eating shawarma so give this give never there's so many people feed other people everybody recognizes when it comes to gas mias if you just do it for yourself you're selfish you're a glutton in gas everyone understands when it comes to the physical world if you just take for yourself you're selfish says you if that's the way it is in the physical world in the spiritual world even more so if you just sit and try to acquire rookney is for yourself that's not it could be that somebody the caliber of the vilnigan who first of all the only guy now for the only going our shas is corrected by every word of shots is corrected by the only gun every word of the matter is in fact every word of shock is correct right you know how many dozens of farm he wrote right he answers there are certain sadiq that through their isolation or our mash beyond the whole world again it depends on cilantro is a very talented individual he was a master speaker he was a big he knew how to deal with people maybe he felt for his capabilities it was the wrong thing to do but this is the this is the general outlook that he quotes from village was the student of the guy by the way the the the only gun did teach talmidim the only guy i believe gave a shirt in um in vacillating what's the correct path in life until he came to this understanding that the same way in gas meals would not want a person just to eat for himself the same thing in rochester that's the opinion of rabbi akiva shimonom sunni pearish he's separated from the ways of the world rebbi akiva what es le rabbos that was his opinion okay rabbi one last thought says this is very important to remember one of some of these things we mentioned in the past but this uh we just put on this morning says like this this is in any language somebody who we could say many verbs about him then gets a noun for example someone who does many acts of righteousness right he is we give him shame taya we give him the noun someone who's i said he does many acts of saintliness he gains the shame targeting the noun khasid someone who learns a lot of torah he gets the shame now in tanakh so when you're given a name it means something not like today right you know how to read all of this right now right today titles are uh are like water right everybody's harava going in the torah though nobody's rabbi and very few people are given titles he's not stamina he's a real son if i were to ask you of every title that's dear in the eyes of god which title that a person could gain is the closest thing to hashem in this world right [Music] right what's which title is the closest asham right anyone know you know person has a trouble now back to the last thing we said i'm going to a hidden saddle sir if yakiville says if he's a tadic then he should be hidden in this generation he's the hidden sadiq but the whole world knows about him they think you think you know about it as much as you know about him he said that's on him there's no no like you know you we hear these stories in the woods there's a guy who acted like he's wearing shematas and he may he acted like a bahama but really deep down
