Parshas Re'eh: Who Decided That An Hour Is 60 Minutes?

this torah class is brought to you by torahanytime.com okay uh good evening rabbi said pastors ray so the tarot tells us about the episode of the mesis the mesis is somebody who tries to persuade and seduce his friend to be oiveid abeduzara and the pasik tells us about the investigations that the besden has to do in order to determine whether in fact this individual qualifies to be a message and the passage says vidarashta you will seek out you will investigate vishwa al-tahitev and you will question well and behold it is true the matter is correct this abomination has been committed in your midst okay so obviously you look at the pasta can you see there are extra phrases the dharashta one seeking out the character investigation vishalta questioning and the gemara darshans based on this passage and other psukim that speak about the investigation of bezdin that from these so can we learn out that bezdin goes through a full-fledged procedure of cross-examination a very methodical very thorough procedure and it's known as seven khaki so the way they cross examine the witnesses they go through seven khakiras the mishnah sanhedrin says they would test the witnesses with seven investigations what are they what shivua cycle what shemitah cycle did you see it happen in other words when do you claim it happened this seven year period another seven year period another seven year period so yeah they have the aid them have to get their act together and they both have to have the same story of what shmita cycle the uh the act transpired how many depends on the case depends on the severity of the case it could be anywhere between 71 and 3 it could be 71 it could be 23. the izana what year was it beijing what month was it the kama bakadesh what day of the month the azayom what day of the month what day of the week what hour be what's the place these are the seven main questions that the desden uses to cross-examine the witnesses the shemitah cycle the year the month the day of the month the day of the week the hour of the day and the place so from this mishna and gemara it would imply that there is a concept of a halachic hour now we're all familiar with something called shasmani ice where we break up the uh there are definitely enough sheets for everybody so if anybody needs uh that we know there's a concept of the halachic hour where you break up the day let's say from uh from aloysia until it says or from natacama until you break it up into 12 parts and in the winter an hour could be a 12th of the day could be as little as 45 minutes it could be 40 minutes you know in some place of the world for some place in the world there's maybe an hour or two of daylight and hours uh 10 minutes on the other hand you have on the long summer days or in some place in the world where it's daylight you know uh 22 hours a day so an hour could be almost two hours these are called shows manias the question is the 60 minute hour is there such a concept say of course there's a concept i have a watch and after the uh the minutes hit travel 60 times an hour transpires the question is is that a real halacha concept is there a halakhe concept of a 60 minute hour you say doesn't there have to be this is one of the questions we asked him what hour did it take place and there's no way we're asking them what shoz mani it took place because nobody in their right mind is aware of what shasmani it is maybe a face first man krishna so you look at the chart on the on the wall so you know what time krishna nobody is aware during the course of the day of the shasmani if your watch is giving you shazmani sorry you have issues you know if you're aware of what the the halachic hour is at every moment of the day you know you get you've got something going let me know about that no more most normal people have no clue what the shasmani is unless for a specific halachic but everybody follows the 60 minute hour so the question is is there such a thing is that a halacha concept you say well doesn't it have to be it's one of the questions we asked the witnesses well and what's the alternative is there an alternative and if it's not halachically recognized where did it come from so come to be honest in ibishits as only he could do in maybe his magnum opus on mission review the fact that the day is broken up into 12 hours i like them are 12 parts it's not a pasuk and it's not a gemara there is no pasaken promise that says they're 12 hours in the day we know there are seven days in the week we know god created the world in six days he rested on the seventh day there is no pasaken tanakh that says that there are 12 hours a day not only that there's no gemura in shas that says they're 12 hours a day not only that science and nature does not dictate that there has to be 12 hours in a day science dictates that there are days because there's sunrise and sunset so the phenomenon of nature demonstrate that there are days the phenomenon of nature demonstrate there are months the amount of time it takes for the moon to go around the earth the phenomenon of nature demonstrates dictates that there's a year the amount of time it takes for the earth to go around the sun to revolve around the sun what now by the way we're having this eclipse coming up on monday you know about the eclipse a solar eclipse will always occur on average because that's the day where the the moon gets in the way of the earth's uh vision of the sun so really a solar eclipse can only happen on average technically speaking it should happen every single era of vegeta the only thing is the moon is not in a direct line of vision every single average it happens to be for whatever reason the orchestrated the world that this monday ever the moon is going to get in our line of vision of the sun at what is it 2 44 and maybe we'll talk about that over shabbos but the there's not a pausing in hamish that says that they're 12 hours a day there's no gemara that says they're 12 hours a day and science does not nature does not demonstrate the other 12 hours a day so where does it come from says son who has it is merely convention of society it's made up well we'll talk about hot sauce because you could say nature dictates there's hot soils why when the sun is directly overhead that's midday so that's a scientific uh platitude that's a scientific demarcation but that the day is broken up into 12 parts maybe it's 20 parts maybe it's 10 parts maybe it's 9 parts there is no source that an hour is 60 minutes and not by nature i every society in the world they all have the same building blocks of time those same segments of time ravianusan says that's only raku has the scientists agreed to divide the day into segments they divided into twelve pieces the karushais and they called it ours but it has no legal significance it has no hallock significance it has no basis they could have said there are 10 hours in the day anything if there are 10 hours in the day then how long would an hour be not more than an hour and a half an hour 15 minutes or so an hour and 20 minutes so more than a little bit more than an hour right if there were 10 hours in the day it would be a little bit more than an hour and says we actually divide the hour in other words what we're discussing now is how do we know that an hour is a 12th of the day meaning an hour 60 minutes the fact is says will be honest and we divide the hour some people divide into 30 parts into 40 parts and in his time he said already 30 or um 30 or 40 khalakim them kane had to hirolano so now the question is if an hour is merely a societal convention so why does the mishna say that when we ask a question one of the questions is what hour did it take place that means the torah is saying we need to ask the witnesses what hour took place but an hour is not a halacha concept the answer is like this really what the torah means says son is not what hour took place hour in the mishnah means the general time of the day for example when the sun is in the east that's called the morning hours when the sun is in the west that's the afternoon hours and the sun is directly overhead that's midday that's all shaw means in the mishnah but once society has come together and has agreed upon that they're 12 hours a day and there's one o'clock two o'clock three o'clock four o'clock in the rice predictor the more exacting you could be in your cross-examination the better off you are but it doesn't mean midday rice on a directional level we need to ask the adam what hour did it take place because midori raisa there is no such thing as an hour an hour is arbitrarily made up unit of time they could have easily made up an hour as 90 minutes could have been 30 minutes it could have been one minute and la maisa i know people even today their hour is much longer than an hour because when they tell you they're gonna do something in an hour they still have the biblical definition of the hour and it could be you know to be done with capsules that they tackle hold there's no such thing as an hour and the truth is there isn't it's just societal convention and once society agreed upon a 60-minute hour when the mishnah means the hour very interesting something i was not aware of if you would have asked me uh before i research this topic where does an hour i would say it's got to be somewhere in the torah and in fact we're going to see how does ruby anderson deal with so many gemaras and shaas that do mention the concept of the hour but that's the ruby sun that an hour is not a halachically binding unit of time comes our samayah comes ramir simkov davinsk in his commentary to the rambam and incredibly in hilchoice edos comes our sameach and he quotes innovated a wondrous and true thing so first of all uh the arsenic says the kid is second of all he says not only is it incredible it's also true sometimes you could hear this it's incredible the only thing is whether it's true you know who knows sometimes you could hear a true but it's you know it's pasha so it's wonderous it's true that what that when hazal say that one of the khakiros that we ask the adam is what hour it does not refer to the convention of the societal hour because that is not halachically binding that is not the kawan of the torah says says now look carefully how he paraphrases 12 hours is not a pasuk and it's not halal now that's not what reviewed said the words of janus and i bishops were it's and it's not in a gemara the way the art paraphrases it he says it's not a passage and we'll see that might be very important well says our samaya based on this reviews we can answer the question of toy swiss in rosh hashanah on that field twice just asked the following question the sheet of rabbi huda is that tu edim can be off by a half hour normally the two of them have to get their story straight they have to have uh their story has to coincide but ashita is you know within a half hour each aid could be off by a half hour so the gemara says that if one aide says that something happened in the third hour excuse me if one eighth says something happened in the fifth hour and another eighth says something happened in the seventh hour a dusan battalion fracked isis why is it but all if one eight says it happened in the fifth hour and the other eight says it happened in the seventh hour maybe really it happens at what time at six o'clock and the aid that says that it happened in the fifth hour it's the end of the fifth hour no no in other words if that's what maybe it happened in the middle of the sixth hour at what time it happened let's say 6 30. let's say it happened at 6 30. yeah and the eight that says the fifth hour it's the end of the fifth so it's come at six o'clock and the eight that says the seventh it's the beginning of the seven so it's seven o'clock so each one is only off by a half hour and their story would be considered uh um you could you could reconcile the two statements because each one is only off by a half hour why does the gemara say that if one eighth says five o'clock the other eight says seven o'clock the story is no good maybe it happened basically the middle of the sixth hour and when that one if what basically like this if uh one eight says the fifth hour one eight says the seventh hour maybe it happened in the middle of the sixth the guy who said the fifth hour he meant the end of the fifth the guy who said the seventh hour he meant the beginning of the seventh and nobody is off by more than a thirty minute segment so it says our samaya according to or beyond rabiani bishops the two testimonies are not reconcilable why because an hour is only the additional question that we asked to aid them now that there's a concept of an hour but the original question of isa shah was not what hour was it the original question was what segment of the day was it when the when the sun is in the east or is it the sun is in the west and you can have two adam contradicting each other regarding whether the sun is in the eastern sun's rest and if one eight says hour five and the other is ours says hour seven they don't yes in terms of the time segment which is the added question that could be reconciled but in terms of the basic question what segment of the day did it happen that they have different stories and that cannot be reconciled but says if one aide says the third hour and one eight says the fifth hour that could be reconciled and la maisa that would not be a contradiction says based on this of ravianasan ibishuts okay by the way so again shaw's mania perhaps that would be on the dirichlet level there might be a concept of a halachic hour where you'll break up the daylight into 12 parts and depending on the season the hour could be between a half hour and two hours but the 60 minute hour says if you understand irish says it has no basis in aloha and we know we do use the 60 minute hour because when we ask the a the more time it was the the carbon is to the what hour that people agree upon okay by the way the play yeshua in massachusetts also says this is that the fact that they're 24 hours a day has absolutely no basis there is no makar that they're 24 hours a day yeshua says again there could be 24 halachic hours 12 halakhah hours of the day in but the concept that you break up the entire period into 24 equal hours says if anything we're going to break up the day into 12 halachic portions depending on the season and sometimes it could be less sometimes it could be more but the concept that there are 24 equal parts of a day it's not even true it has no basis no such thing nobody's denying the fact that the watch was uh invented what in the 18th century that we got yeah the fact that people invented watch does not now make it that hour is a halachic segment of time it's just something that was invented to the egyptians who developed the use of sundials right around the same time okay so we took it from them or we didn't take it we just you know everybody agrees that's a convenient way to okay that's the opinion of avenues and ibishits miracles happen you know is the sheet of robinus and i bishops and our samaya and the play yeshua that 24 hours in a day is a convention of society here's the question the question is like this there seems to be sources in the sukim for hours for example pasuk says that moshe tells the people don't worry i'm going up for 40 days and i'm going to be back by the sixth hour on the 40th day and the posix says the people saw the sixth hour came so what happened at the end of 40 days the saturn came he made the world very cloudy so it looked like the sixth hour came and uh the saturn said where's moses so they said he went upstairs yeah but the for the sixth hour came they didn't pay attention the sutton said he died they didn't pay attention so he showed them an image of misha lying in his deathbed and then they said aaron you know we gotta we gotta do something here where in the world is my shabbino but the lotion of the pasta is the sixth hour came so doesn't that mean that the torah recognizes ours doesn't refer to shasmani when martial said i'm coming in the sixth hour he meant the halachic hour he meant six hours into the day so there's a say for a new say from a goddamn kadasham he says that uh rabianis and ibishits would have to say that moshe never said the words i'm coming the sixth hour what did he say but now that society agreed that there's something called ours and it happens to be that khatsu is the sixth hour because i'll stick it back into the puzzle i don't like that answer or not they're telling you what the tradition is from harsinai as the meaning of the pasta they're not telling you like a cute thing that comes out really sweet now that people got together and invented something called time so this is somewhat of a question on ruby honest and ibishits the pastor is acknowledging the concept of six hours another question says ten things were created on sunday look number ten um says rashi what does it mean the measurement of the day and the measurement of night rashi says it was created on the first day 24 hours a day the concept of 24 hours a day was created on yamiche seems to indicate that the 24 segments of time was a very very old invention so again the magadam khadashim says an answer that i don't quite get he says that rabbi and ibishits would have to say that once society created 24 hours then all rashi means is that the 24 hours is what it was referring to when the segments of time were created not sure exactly what that means so if there was no such thing as 24 hours a day then it wasn't created on young region what exactly was created on your recent rashi says the 24 hours so what does it even mean rashi seems to say the length of the day was created by our meshing again it seems to indicate not like reviews that the concept of 24 hours a day was already created on the first day of creation here's another kasha he did i don't have a good terrace for it i'm not going to tell you a bad terrorist i don't understand what he's saying sakasha on him i'm sure he has uh i'm sure he'll be he would be able to defend himself lefiania's daity it's uh it's hard to explain how would reverend snyder should deal with that come on takes out that gemara oh okay i'm gonna i'm gonna i'm gonna talk about that yeah because right there okay we're going to a very good point because our samak when he says over ryan iverson says it's not a passage the way that arsenal says it over it's not a pasuk and it's not halal which probably the reason why he says that is because there are gemaras that talk about the hour but what we're going to say is means is gumara could sometimes mean gemara gemara we have no ha tradition gave us the torah he said and by the way the day is 12 hours and an hour 60 minutes that's what we're going to see in ambitiousness again because we see the gemara does talk about hours here's a very interesting one if i were to ask you nobody knows this i didn't say nobody but almost nobody what is the how do you say morning in hebrew how do you say evening era and how do you say afternoon saharayam right of course of course where by the way where in humish does it say saharayam nowhere it doesn't appear it does not appear in the comments most people say it's alright is in the afternoon right no sarah has nothing to do with the afternoon what is saharayam the first four hours of the day when the sun is in the east is baker the next two hours from boycare until most people you know they're still getting up in saharan you know 10 to 12 o'clock is not the afternoon sarayam is 10 to 12. after the afternoon but saharaim are the two hours from 10 to 12 the hour five an hour six of the day says the ramban where does the word saharayam come from it comes from the word saihar tasalateva is like a window why the sun is the brightest from 10 to 12. now why is it called lashon rabbim saharayam says ramban since saharayam is two hours so therefore it's called lashon robin boykar is one segment arab is but sarayam is specifically two hours therefore it's called not so hard so what you definitely try to eat you want to know uh when do you eat it yeah not only does it appear on homage it also doesn't appear not in the vm next to him and not even ishmael say i guess you eat it after the tsarayam you know you want to let some macar for brunch okay but what what do we see from the ramen we see ramban that if the torah is the tanakh word for sarayam is saharayian because it's a two-hour segment that means the torah acknowledges the concept of the hour otherwise we wouldn't call it sahara if sarim is just a modern convention then why would the torah refer to that two-hour slot of surround there is no such thing as a two-hour slot so again this is seems to be akasha on ravionisin ibishits now these are when we said these are when the gemara says that the evangelion created beyonce that's saying what was created beyonce the possibility of but again there are many many gomorrahs that seem to speak about the sequence of ours the most prominent that we're going to discuss tonight look at number 16 is the gemaran sanhedrin that's the gemara gives us an hour-by-hour account of the way the first day of creation took place which is really the sixth day of creation when hashem made other marishan so gemara says very interesting the first day the day is 12 hours shari shaina hutzpah afari the first hour god took the dirt and he made a mound shnia nasa goylam the second hour hashem made like an unfinished golem an unfinished form shlisha's nimto evarov the third hour hashem stretched out the limbs of adam raviyas the fourth hour hashem threw the soul into man love the fifth hour admiration stood on his feet the sixth hour he called names to the bahamas in the chaos the seventh hour he got married the eighth hour he had relations he went up to the meeta two they came out of the meet up four it was a very quick pregnancy and labor and delivery in one hour it was all over right ninth hour he was commanded not to eat from the tree tenth hour he ate from the tree the eleventh hour he was judged and the twelfth hour he was kicked out again that's an hour by hour account of the the first day of the creation of man the tenth hour he was told not to eat from the tree basically he could not contain himself for more than an hour but marvel what's going on over here first of all how do we know this hour by hour account who told us who where do we get it from and number two if the gemara is saying an hour by hour account that means hours existed on the first day of creation or there's another gemara navajzara that's the gemara talks about what does hashem do all day i'm sure you always wondered what does hashem that's what everybody says now let me tell you what the gemara says doesn't talk about that the gemara says the day is 12 hours for the first three hours hashem learns torah the next three hours hashem judges the world the next then at the end of the judgment hashem says oh i have to destroy the world so he gets off the ki sedin and he goes on to the kish the next three hours hashem feeds the world and the final four hours hashem goes fishing with olivia's son what for the he sports he plays with the laviasa that is the day that is the hour-by-hour uh report of what the evangelion does the first three the first quarter of the day he learns next quarter din next quarter fasted and then then the last quarter of the day requires a whole discussion and it's beyond the scope of this year going fishing okay marvel said but we see from this that the gemara says the first three hours of the day doesn't that mean that the gemara is acknowledging the concept of the hour again this may be why the arsameak when he paraphrases and ibishits he doesn't say gemara but he understands the word gomorrah means meaning that all these gomorrahs may mean is that hashem happened to do this in what we now call our one and hashem happened to do that in what we now call our two but really we have no source that there's something called an hour the shita ravionis and ibishuts and our samaya and the pranayashua is that there is no such thing as a 60 minute hour yeah 12 meaning the day means the daylight though we have a tradition that when hashem created the world he only did he only only did bria during the the daylight okay that's what some people say but the gemara says it was 12 hours you know even though the ramban says maybe a day wasn't the same day that's the sheet of ravioli disagrees you don't need anyone to agree 60 minutes what do you mean there's no such thing as a minute by the way we're going to see even the khazanesh who says that they're 12 hours in a day there's no such thing as a minute there's no such thing as a minute and halal there's no switching is a minute 18 minutes for mata we don't the concept of the 18 minutes the candle lighting it's also it's not it's a it's an american invention yeah okay so that's the that we understand says that no the hour is very significant in halacha we find that by the shriek of the carbon tomit srita karmantomi is determined by the hours it's shocked in the eight and a half hour of the day it's nikrav in the the nine and a half hour of the day says so that already is not such a question because these are shoeismanios but then khazanesh goes further says since the torah itself divides the day into 24 parts and we call each part an hour now the question is where did the torah divide the day into 24 hours it says the makhara is the gemara in rosh hashanah the gemara rosh hashanah gives us the exact time frame of what is called the lunar cycle so nasa spent something like a billion dollars to come up with this calculation something that ghazal knew already for almost 2 000 years not until this century with a billion dollars of nasa research did scientists come up with this number the gemara intercalation of the month this lunar cycle is not pusa me estimation it's not less than 29 days um and a half so so far we don't necessarily know that it's ours ushneishlichesha and two-thirds of an hour the and seventy-three now by the way how many khalakkum are in an hour 1080 okay and keep in mind that number we're going to talk about that a lot there are a thousand and eighty khalakim in an hour so it sounds like a very random number why in the world would you divide an hour into a thousand and eighty parts first of all it's a very convenient number it's a number that is there is no number in numbers that is divisible by more numbers than the number 1080. obviously one two three four five six eight nine and ten a thousand and eighty is divisible by more numbers than any other number that's one reason why they picked it we're going to learn today some of the secrets of the number 1080. now if the gemara says that the lunar cycle is 29 and a half and two thirds of an hour now if an hour is a thousand and eighty khalakim two thirds is seven hundred and twenty khalakkum 360 360 360 is 1080. so it's 7 20 khalakkim and 73 khalakkim basically the lunar cycle is 29 and a half days and 793 says that the month is this long and they give us a number and hours it has to be that an hour is a halachic segment of time so the question is where do we from where do we know that they're 12 hours in a day in an hour 60 minutes just did not agree to that organization said it's a modern convention it's and he brings araya from rabiosi shita nida we know that if a woman experiences a flow on a certain day so then it could establish that she's accustomed to seeing on that day a day of the month um a certain number of days after the last flow rob yoshi says you go by the hour says he says you go by the hour he doesn't mean shasmani he means a regular 60 minute hour if rab yoshi is pascaning that an oina midairsa is a segment of an hour it must be on a biblical level there's a concept of a 60 minute hour where did it come from rabbi sai it must be so it's very interesting we have like a very wide mach like us who decided an hour 60 minutes ravionis and ibishop says who decided the ancient incas and the the navajo indians they had they convened that they got together one day and they all got together and they said an hour is 60 minutes and they're 12 hours in a day you know one maybe one shave that said uh 14 hours once she was at 10 they took a vote and they decided on 12 hours says 60 minute hours let's go back for a moment to the first day that admiration was created and the gemara tells us the mama gave us a day an hour by hour account of the creation of other marishan so first of all how do we know this how do we know this information how do we know what hashem did in our one hour two hour three hour floor if you look at number twenty five the fei taya says that there is no indication from the sukim of what took place on each respective hour all of this information says what took place on each hour now the feta says something very interesting says wait a second you know you know they're different kind of schools you have some shoes they could do kris satyar in 15 minutes some shoes it takes them 45 minutes so what does it depend on depends on the misha beyrocks depends on a lot of things you know so in some places you say come on get your act together you know you could you could finish it in less time what in the world took the rebound some so long to make man when we made the grasshopper he said by he grasshopper grasshopper that's it why first he made the mounds and then he made the golem and then he stretched out the wind the limbs and then he uh threw in the soul and then just know what what's the misha barak in between each step says the faith iris to teach how much ribenson loves man that he dedicated so much time to his creation and he did it so thoroughly and so methodically so the man should realize how important he is says very interesting thing an amazing thing how many hours did it take hashem to make man well if i were to ask you when is man complete isha matsutov you know when you get married then you're complaining so how many hours did it take for adam to be complete seven hours because he got married in the seventh hour in how many days did hashem create the world in seven days the seven hours of the creation of adam correspond to the seven days of brialam the same way on the first day god said let there be light but the light was not defined to any specific area so too the first day uh the first hour of the creation of man hashem just gathered together the material but nothing was separated from the other in the second hour hashem made a unformed image and all he did was he said the head will be here the feet will be there but he didn't actually press it into forum so to on the second day of creation hashem sort of determined the upper waters will be here the lower waters will be there but he didn't actually bring it into actuality then in the third hour hashem made the limbs of man so too in the third day of creation made the rs came to be the sort of the limbs of the world were apparent in the fourth hour hashem gave the soul the soul is the light of man on the fourth day of creation hashem created the lights then on the fifth day what happened on the fifth day of the mauritians the fifth hour of the region stood up the fifth day of creation hashem created the malachi hasharis the sixth hour adam called names he used his sechel that's why adam was created on day six and the seventh hour adam was misdavig and that corresponds to shabbos kaidash says there is somewhat of a question on ravenous and ibishits before we get to the final section of the shira and that is if you understand ibishops himself besides writing the uran matum also wrote a safer on jerush called the arastovas and in the arustavash rabianis and ibishut seems to say like that 12 hours of the day are not societal convention but rather says if you would look at the sun you would see that every hour different group of malachi ashares is in charge of running the sun and these malachi hashares are governed by the twelve permutations of the uk buffet says rabbyongasan that's why they're 12 hours a day each hour is for a different shift of the malachi so that sure doesn't sound like an hour is a societal convention that sounds like there's something inherent in the concept of an hour but if you look carefully at the words of the aristowash look at number 27 the aristotle says that because there are 12 permutations of york gay and their 12 shifts of malachi the ancient civilizations therefore agreed it would be convenient to name segments of time based on the twelve shifts of malachi so in other words robinson is basically reiterating his position that the concept of an hour is a modern convention even though it was agreed upon based on real uh real reasons okay marvelous i fasten your seat belts even ravionis and ivashitz who says that the hour is modern convention but on a deeper level we're going to find that the concept of time is rooted in the deepest secrets of kabbalah we'll just give you a little flavor so we know they're 12 hours a day there's 24 hours in a an entire day and how many khalakim are in a 20 in an hour 1 000 and 80. so the question is where in the world did a thousand and eighty hawaikim come from comes rabbenu and very mysteriously rabbina bakayi says on the passage in qadosham look at number thirty al tiffnu el hualilam he is commenting on the pathway into hilum look at number 28 in your hand is my times we say god in your hand is my times says 30. it's coming to elude that the great name of hashem that we darshan in it zash milla this is my name forever le allam siv it's spelled without above koilel it includes bitsy roof choice and the combinations of ours shaheen your base beyond twelve during the day the youth baseball is twelve in the night and it includes in it all the seconds and the simmon of the seconds are epashaba and if you turn around the first letter onto four sides you'll get all the seconds of the day and therefore a person should be very careful not to divert his mind from hashem even for one second a day so there's just one very simple question and that is what in the world is he talking about what does he mean that's the secret of the passage what does this have to do with the past exact shamila what does this have to do with the pasta epa and what does he mean if you turn around the first letter of the allah phase on its four sides you'll get all the seconds over there so in the footnotes on rabbina bakaye he sort of uncovers his gleaning is is plucking the secret of time from the sukkam of the torah first we have a pasaken tehillah 24. that's the 24 hours a day now the word eta is a very interesting word what does it say mean my times plural what's another way of saying times can i tell you a soy now we know the aloe phase each letter has a numerical value aleph is one kuff is a hundred ratios two hundred chin is three hundred tough is four hundred well now what do you do how do you get more than four hundred so we once spoke out men at the end of letters the final letters the final half is 500 the final mem is 600 the final nun is 700 the final pay is 800 the final sadhi is 900 and what's a thousand aleph which is one is also lf a thousand yeah fine so the word e tim i in is 70. tough is 400. uh it is 10 endomem is 600. i in a 70 top is 400 yod is 10 and the amendment 600 1080. the word itim is numerical value 1080. this is the source for 1080 khalakim in an hour okay continue says this is the site of zeslam the numerical value of shimmy that's the way it's written shmee is 350. what's is laminating is a hundred mem is six hundred seven thirty three fifty and seven thirty is ten eighty zero twelve hours a day shamila alam is 1080 1080 what's the secret the pasak and yashaya apasha aleph is lf a thousand pay is 80 shah 1000 1080 khalakkum in a second but the question marv is what does mean at the end of his words that if you take the first letter and you turn it on its four sides you'll get the number of seconds in an hour and the commentary on the bottom says that one is really deep but you how can we stop here you're gonna you're just gonna say ah that's very deep what does you mean there are literally dozens of perushim and the sephirah kabbalah what i'm gonna tell you two perusian okay two royce in the name of hashem that they're moments in an hour here's the first one okay if you take the rabbit says if you take the first letter and you roll it on four you get the number of seconds so let's do that what's the first letter of your kevke now let's spell you lua yud vav dalit what's that 20. now we're going to spell out the holy quebed which is 20 we're going to times it by the yud 20 times 20 is 400. hey is he aleph 20 times 6 is 120. love is aleph what is that excuse me vote you'd love what's above you above 22. what's your times above 20 times 22. no 20 times 22. 440. very good and then back to the hey 20 times hey olive six 120. 400 120 440 120 is 1080 1080 the seconds of the day you got it okay that's 20 times good times hey times love times hey is 1080 meaning time is created by the particles of god's name so you have to use your time wisely because hashem is doing you a favor he's using his name to grant you time he's giving you a thousand and eighty moments in an hour it's created by the yurt kevke the shlo rejects this shot he said i heard this chat when i was a young boy but he rejects it i'm going to tell you aside please remember this only for the rest of your life when you spell out the uk of k there are two ways of doing it you could use the aleph system or you could use the youth system you could make vav spelled v and hey hey aleph you could use aleps so hey could be hey aleph and v could be or you could use the youth system hey could be hey you'd and love could be above you but you can't pick and choose says you can use a aleph with the hay and a yud with the vov either you got to use yud both ways or aleph both ways now amazing thing it's it's um if you use the youth system listen carefully to this is unbelievable if you use spell out yod kevakke bimi luai with the yud system so yo it is hey is he yod love is and then the hay is hey and then a yud using the youth system throughout you add that up that's the 72 letter name of hashem the youth system of 72 letter name the aleph system is the 45 letter name of hashem but says the show you can't mix and match so here therefore i'm going to throw out to you what the schla offers as his shot in the words of i'll let you think about this as you go to sleep tonight and that is if you take the aleph when the when the brow benevokai says take the first letter he means if you take the ois aleph and you would join it aleph with the that's 11. then olive with the hay is six and i'll lift with the vav at seven and i'll put the that's six now how many kudos are there there are six nakudis there's heric there's shiva tsaring now if you have two letters then how many different permutations of nakudas could you have in two letters 36 each right each letter could have six different akuda so in two letters you could have 36 different permutations so if you if you put the aleph with the yud 36 ways and then the aleph with the hay 36 ways and then the olive with above 36 blades and then the olive or the hey 36 ways you have 1080. so what are we going to do with that okay you ready for this this is one of the most unbelievable kinds i ever heard you know why there are 1080 particles in an hour how many times does a human breed being breathe in an hour i checked it up today it's a healthy person an adult 15 to 20 an average of 1080 times an hour each breath that you take is coming from one of the a thousand and eighty different cultures of your kfk every time you breathe we vanish them is like mixing different letters to give you the kayak of that breath that's the shot says the qadosh think about how tolerant the evangelion is in an hour 1080 breaths an hour the reason why they're a thousand and eighty particles in an hour is because they're a thousand and eighty breaths in an hour each particle and each breath is coming from a unique kayak of the yurt cave fk whether it's you know the yurt kev kevin me luway times the utv or it's the 36 different nakuda whatever it is says the this is what it means god is a melech look how suffering hashem is look how tolerant he is he has to mix up his name and zap you with strength for every breath you take think about how important it is to utilize every breath of life for aveda's hashem because every breath is a unique gift from the rebounding club and yet if we don't use our life for the um look how tolerant he has to be look how much he has to do for us and yet he sort of tolerates the fact that we don't use the gift for what we need so let's end let's end in the following way this year will be a little among us i got that so that's right that's right bottom line is if you understand bishop says that the hour is a modern convention it's a societal convention however rabbi sai what sort of seems to indicate more like the khazanesh that units of time the 60 minute hour is something that is based in the sort of building blocks of the universe is the fact that in all the svarim they speak at length about the significance of the hours of certain things i'll give you a few examples and then we'll call it a night for example the matters tells us that the arhagana is the original light of creation how long did it last for we know it lasted for 36 hours 12 hours friday afternoon and the 24 hours of shabbos what do you mean how long did it last for there's no such thing as an hour apparently there is a concept there's a torah concept there is something called the 60 minute hour or i'll give you another example the medara cites three instances of people who cannot wait six hours one we already mentioned claudio so cannot wait to six hours until my sharabino came down adam harishan within six hours of his being born he was already you know chased out of ganeden and sisra sister also says excuse me it says madua came in the sixth hour within six hours so she is an hour two more examples how long should a person prav shabbos yeah i don't know you know you start 18 minutes before shikiya and you go at least 50 minutes 72 minutes apida ariza writes many places shabbos is 31 hours now i'm not sure if he means mom is shabbos but the kadusa of shabbos has to be nimshak 31 hours and arizona explains from on friday you ready limit your activities is that six hours 24 hours on shabbos and an hour of malava malka so what he means is the sanctified dimension of shah this last 31 hours and the rem is is that rizal says the rem as a result says is kale malachi and it comes to combat the 31 forces of the malachan that yeshua bennu conquered when he came into here what's the reason talking about 31 hours of out there's no such thing as an hour the bay sauce car has so many drugstores also says this i reason that the 31 hours on shabbos i found an incredible ramez because if you look in the rambam and they say for hamitz voice the mitzvah of zakharov is 31 of course that's a raya to that reason all that right we need 31 hours what are you darkening hours an hour is a modern convention avraham because how many days of pesach are there seven days seven days 24 hours what's 24 times 7 168. but you already have to stop stop um and burn the comments that's another six hours 174. added a the eleventh hour an hour before so there are 175 hours that it's awesome to have comments and that's how long abraham avenue lived 175 years that's why pesach is connected out from aveeno what do you mean hours there's no such thing as an hour one last one benedict says are 40 days how many hours a day what's 40 times 24 nine hundred and sixty the number of lugimun amika amikvah has 960 look the yume ello and the yaman noiram are like a mikvah like ravikiva says name um that anybody who traverses through the other naram is purified through the mikvah yamnaram let's see darshaning the hours i thought an hour according to understanding ibishuts is just a modern convention a societal convention this would all seem to indicate that there's something very deeply rooted in the concept of a 60-minute hour or maybe you could say no we once said in ashira that and we used it to explain the veneer salsa we said the following concept it could be ravenous and ibishits is absolutely correct and i'm sure he feels he is that an hour is a complete invention of society so what do we have all these drushes on the number of animals the answer is divarium gaddailam a number that even if it's an invention and even it's something that society created but if the protest had it that the world created a system of time called a 60 minute hour even if it has no halachic significance that means ribanus shalom orchestrated that it should be agreed upon this unit of time there must be meaning to it even though maybe it's not rooted in sukhen and it's not rooted in gemara and we don't have allah it is possible that nevertheless you could ascribe significance to it as there is this concept that if the protest had it that this is what makes up time and this is what mankind accepts as a unit of time we could then offer and try to delve into well why did the hashtag have it that this was the amount of time that people agreed upon rabbi have a great night thanks for coming and use your time wisely you've just experienced another torah class brought to you by torahanytime.com
