welcome back Rabbi Dr elzar brat we

I believe where you are in ER it's
already Kaneka I see the light on your
face you've already lit the first candle
of kanaka so we could
say and any other Kana greeting we would
like to share we are here to do an
episode on the we have done episodes

theas that we've done to theas you going
through the history of some of
the on the we've done a few biographies
we've done the
AR the which hasn't been released yet
but but we are here to do the ha many
people have heard of the ha he has a
safer hak on kin that's where I think
the impetus for this episode came from
even though we're already in
bakama a ofer so those are some basic
biographical details that most people
know but as always the rabbi doctor will
take us down a highway of information
that I at least don't know and I'm sure

we've gleaned don't know either and

out specifically
before elzer BR
gmail.com okay so Rabbi BR how are you
today where would you like to begin
introducing the half okay so as you
mentioned it's part of our series to go
through the lies The Works of the great
so by the way by way of introduction I'm
going to say as follows this
tremendous Hartz author of The andna or
hna is born in 1730 dies in
1805 he's very famous for authoring
these classic works that we just
mentioned on CHAS and also work called
pist and they still learn daily
worldwide but and he's also famous for
being the rabbi of
the so but his history life story is
shrouded in mystery until today it's
even a Hot Topic as I will discuss an
excellent work on the ranam of Frankfurt
which is where the FL ends up the last
33 years of his life becoming the r the
r at the time Hartz writes w about the
ranim in
1882 he is a son-in-law of Dar in his
own right we actually mentioned a little
bit about him in the episode NE of
cleaves and this Martz in his book on
Rani Frankfurt he deals with he's the
first big source that deals with the
materials about AF and he had Pim of
Frankfurt which we'll discuss shortly
and um but the problem is this work was
written in German in 1882 so it's only
first translated into 1972 into Hebrew
so it's not able to be used as much for
the most part until the 1990s no serious
material about him was published then in
the journal kid space AR Isel which is
based on amongst other things publishes
manuscripts from that is housed and the
stallen the Reb was incredible swarm
Library tons of materials of the flow
not tons but very important materials of
the flow was published and series of
Articles dealing with him again around
2010 till
2012 some more new real serious
documentation was published from him
previously most of the material written
about him was based on each person
copying from the other without checking
into things saying things that get
embellished over time and they're not
based on real facts as we'll mention a
little bit shortly some of the recent
discoveries are just fitting into the
previous outcomes even though they're
not based on proper out not based on
proper sources they're not even using
materials published back in 1882 even
when it was translated in 1972 now in
2002 in sorry in 2010 2 to 2012 soav
ketki son of
ketki publishes four articles about him
first in yu then two in yurin and again
Inu defending some of the sharp attacks
that took place about what he wrote in
some of these articles two articles of
ketki are based on the pinkas Sim of
Frankfurt which still has not been
published in its entirety now just to
explain briefly what does it mean pink
kasim of Frankfurt so we know wealth of
material remains on many cities they had
different pinkas Sim they could be
pinkas Sim of the bzden the protocols
the back and forths of the diim there's
all types of different pinkas many were
destroyed World War II but many survived
and they
exist to jump in our friend Naki
Weinstein has had at least one that I
could recall episodes on Pim I believe
he had Professor elisheva kbak is her
name who has studied this and it's very
fascinating information yes yeah yeah
now early historians before World War II
A lot of times had access CU they a lot
of times researched their own cities so
they could used the pinkas Sim some of
those materials have been destroyed but
some survived and in recent years it's
been a Revival not only Professor Alish
also there's just to mention a pinkas of
Mets 20 years of the Bez of the Shas was
published in a beautiful massive T of an
addition from Professor J burkowitz
Professor Mo Kahana who worked a lot on
Prague and theud Bas M and theud
discovered incredible documents about
coffee which is is a fasc story and as
we know cof is very important but the
story that he he able to uncover from
these Pim is incredible buter Pim has a
lot of times information a lot of
information is boring but there's a lot
of exciting information like a lot of
things you learn and you see you could
sometimes make Amazing Discoveries DAV
ketki publishes the parts pink of
Frankfurt that relate to the and theur
journal I was told that Goldberg when he
received this volume in in 2000 in those
years he was very very excited everyone
knows
wasw was a tremendous D and he felt
these and the materials in these pinkas
Sim were were fascinating for him
personally I think based on that it's
very useful for danim to use these type
of materials for various reasons
something I hope to deal with an article
that's hopefully coming out shortly one
last source that relates to this city
Frankfurt is and also pink is that
Professor Edward Fram published from a D
in Frankfurt that was on these this
of that flaw during these years which
also gives us to a window into issues of
many different things that were going on
in daily life at that time and we'll get
back to the points that one of some very
brief points about it shortly now what's
the basic information about the flaw so
we don't have to look any further is
that he himself in his introduction to
the of his
Masterpiece published in his lifetime
1787 he writes basically who does he
learn by he says my a
and he learns by him it sounds like he
doesn't mention anyone else until he
gets married and he to sit and learn um
without interruption and he has a
brother who his older brother and he
learns with him for for a
year this this brother gets a job as a
RV so he ends up going to his other
brother his this brother is a
famous and they learn he learns with him
he says this is the saying this they
learn
to learn the the of
and they get the Torah they learn ezar
also a lot and they a lot
into all this is found in this
introduction okay fine so he's clearly
listing out who his rabim are and then
he says that he publishes the safer um
this is in the country this is in the
back of his work onus which we'll
discuss what that this kous aan is in a
moment in the to the actual safer and
now is a massive safer known as sh which
we he he actually talks about in his
introduction calling it chatan he writes
in a very very incredible Hebrew a
well-written introduction about his life
more details talks about that he was a r
in two different Kil eventually he gets
after two small kilas he doesn't we
don't even know much about it but it
sounds like he had there and he was
learn and he learned a ton from his tal
and we're going to get back to that
point to and then okay fine eventually
there's Wars there's danger he gets he
gets offer the Stellar in Frankfurt and
it's a famous city he says and I take
the job okay um he writes that he loves
the job here a lot of times ranim did
not necessarily see eye to eye with the
Kila from documentation the pink Sim
already from DAV ketki and others um we
see that the kahila loved him how do we
know this they raised his salary more
than once this is also some are familiar
with the history of rabim in general
this was not the case Okay anyway during
these years he learned with he has AA
there and um and you see from him that
the main thing was that he's able to
learn with and they they learn he tries
to learn the MS fine he decides to put
out his starting with says I learned in
Yesa um and he did great intense un it
it's a amazing M as he calls it which we
dealt with the origins of this pisam so
to speak um he was a source that we
mentioned and eventually he hopes to
print his other on the rest of other and
also he says he has
writings okayer he deals with the name
why he gives it a flaw he has a RM
himself his his mother his father all
these types of things and mider
publishes the sa fine um
he also says to make sure to be in
carefully into what he says um and you
okay mean say Don't just if you found a
mistake don't assume it's a mistake
first be then in the back going back to
the the um he writes that not only did I
feel that I have to
learn um right sorry about CH but
there's also an aspect of and that's
what is
int
he goes
through and it's remains a classic and
he writes in this um introduction the
importance of learning not only it's not
only enough to just learn the lus you
also have to know and come out with
Mascus okay fine now this work becomes a
classic and we're going to analyze it
more in a in a few minutes now but it's
first published in
1787 the question is how does Frankfurt
in the 7
early 1770s when they're seeking out a
RV how do they hear about him how is he
so well known he's a RV as I said in
small cities that no one really heard of
um he's not a talmid of any as far as we
know of any famous people so why does
this city of Frankfurt which is a
prominent City decide to pick him and in
general this is a question I've
mentioned in the past how does a gole
become famous so at times we know he
writes a classical work but as I said
it's only published 15 16 years later
some he has tell me them okay but we
don't even know much is tell me them
sometimes it's through a controversy and
that gets us to is there any
controversies that we could link
possibly to that flaw that could bring
him his him to get to the ears of the of
the search committee of the ear of
Frankfurt okay so here we quote the
famous RAB rabid doat um you've
mentioned his uh different podcasts of
his so here he his Doctorate is devoted
to theud and what's very significant to
the doctorate not only is it about the
nuda it gives you a lot of times picture
of that so he brings out that there was
a massive controversy one of the many
controversies was involved with
something a pulus that started in 1755
I'm not going to go into all the details
of this pulus because I hope to devote
an episode about it at some point um but
the point is that there was a Rua Hartz
he was married to a woman and sounds
like it wasn't a happy marriage he
wanted a divorce she didn't want a
divorce they didn't have children but
kiter the uncle
is rabit hamburger rabitz hamburger is a
very good friend of the Yuda from the
from their days learning in the clo of
bra okay he's a r at the time and he he
he holds in the end that that that they
could give a g and they have to give her
a get in a
very which basically is they she doesn't
want to take the get so they have a get
written up by the son of the Yeshua and
a is made and basically she's the this
is says according to words of Rabbi cats
she was accosted on the street and her
arms were forcibly held by two polish s
soldiers hired for the purpose at that
point the agent thrust the G onto her
person even as she screamed in protest
okay she's divorced this this this yid
Rua hesel he's a in Galia he gets
married okay she was still very opposed
to this she said she had no right to get
married and she also throws in that she
has a complaint that the document as it
was during this holding down it got
ripped and there's a whole de that the
the get is ripped okay anyway this was a
pulus a lot of trist written about it
many years later the it seems around 10
years later the nuda writes a chuva we
don't know why he does but he's a this
is his nephew and he writes a chuva
saying that it's not a good get
basically the is not a good and and the
course of this controversy various andan
and come out Yuda and what other at the
time such as that we just the reab
hamburger who is his friend he's not
only that he's also his who
why the son ofuda is married to him so
this is a family feud as they say and a
lot has to been written about it okay
who gets involved at one point writes a
whole Chu about
it arguing on so the theory is this
theory is proposed by hars and R
Frankfurt that this true
brought he this was a big pullus at the
time and this got the ran Frankfurt not
and the and the city they heard about
him through this writing against so they
realized he's he did aov and everything
so he's a person to look out for and to
try to get him to be the r the problem
is it's a nice Theory but how in the
world do they know this do they had they
had they're not the Frankfurt City
although they sometimes did get involved
in different controversies they're not
involved in this particular controversy
the true cha is not printed till many
years later 1837 what happened they got
the chuva they found out that the the
the news said oh the wrote this chuva
going up against Yuda now they said ah
we see it's very strange but okay we
don't
knowa he downplays herts downplays the
relationship between the and
however they the and the besides for
being related are close what does it
mean close the re back of land right
about father at one point it seems
wanted to write a on his son said him
what do you mean is already and he says
even though
that still I have what to say and then
he
says he
mentions basically with great C he's
constantly mentioning him this is what
Rando says he remembers all the years
when he whenever will come up about him
fine anyway as far as it goes this is
there's a famous Legend which I did not
have time to discuss what's the legend
the legend goes to the get of cleaves in
the get of cleaves episode which I try
to jam in as much as I could in the one
hour but there's a a ton more to discuss
one aspect is that who becomes the r of
of Frankfurt our hero of
today why
so they say is like this they were
fuming atud who's one of the against the
the the whole who caused the whole TL so
what
happens they made a Tak that the that
the we spoke about this that he can't
become a RV in the city of Frankfurt now
you'll say what okay we'll get to this
in a moment actually but the point is
that so they didn't want any GLE that
rode against the bezin of Frankfurt a TR
so now they looking for a god of major
stature everyone as we spoke about in
that episode pretty much came out
against the Bez of Frankfurt so who are
they going to pick turns out the only
person that didn't write a chuva on the
topic is th Story Goes that he sat down
to write a chuva against the same thing
like the Yuda against Rani Frankfurt not
once not twice not three times the ink
tried up he took it as a sign not to
write it so The Story Goes RAB shus and
this is is why he um he did not this is
why he ends up getting the job because
he didn't write a Tru about it okay and
they when they spoke him they didn't ask
him what do you hold about to get a
Cleaves
okay so now I have to hear the rabbi
Doctor's real thoughts on the story I
have no idea but I'm gonna tell you
Mish this is a thing you can never you
you this story is is a very funny nuda
with this story what's the story a
friend of mine tells me
in America I'm not I'm from America
there's a
named okay
so it seems people start writing up tons
of suak and shum of his and they publish
different Contra of his I so the guy
tells me this is a very interesting
stuff so I I pick one to buy to test
out okay I start reading it and
fascinating
material m m fascinating and what do you
I find there he's talking about Kamas
okay so sh is if you can make a kameha
so basically he brings the whole story
there was someone in Thea who was very
sick he
says they asked him basically to write a
Kam so I wrote aeh him he says I wrote
it three times for him but made a
mistake every time so I saw it was
aim should not get involv with this I
didn't write try to write Kus again and
I don't do it anymore so you'll say to
me this is
speaking it's for me to stop writing I
just made a just because I made a
mistake three times well there's the
story of that flaw the he brings down
our story there's some inaccuracies in
the way he talks about the G of cleaves
but he brings down
this that he wanted to write it and the
ink ran out and he says like this that
FL was the most unlikely candidate to
become the r of Frankfurt why he's a
talmud of the Mez mag
who
a and Frankfurt there's no connection
soer he's even get the job but so what
happens the ink spilled over the cha he
took it as a and that's becomes the R so
he uses this as aack for himself he's
not gonna write he and he doesn't write
Kamas because three times the kameha got
messed up so he doesn't write it anymore
so this is
a that I I find this hard to believe
that anyone came I mean people in
Baltimore that heard the sh probably
know it I randomly came across this
story
okay anyways um
fine but what about this connection to
the maget of Mez we're going to get to
it shortly okay be that as a May the
city of Frankfurt picks him as the rough
why no
idea you have to understand and this is
a very important UDA in the story that
we're going to get to now and that is
Frankfurt is one of the most cities it's
not necessarily the largest city Prague
is much bigger but you want to know
something I come across that in that a
few years before the get of cleave
controversy before they got to Frankfurt
who becomes the of Frankfurt and the Su
of of of against the get they wanted the
after his R of prag they were trying to
get him to become the RV they were
scouting out for a RV and this is in the
years in um n in sari 1750 and
1759 so they were this is a city that's
looking for good raban now they got
great raban one of the over the
centuries was the not not at the time
time without getting hopefully we will
devote an episode just to him he's one
of the rabim of Frankfurt for years so
this was a city that had the Superstar
so they had right and that's what they
were looking for in this Goa and there's
a very very important Point that's been
over shadowed it's been not been
emphasized enough at this time when that
flaw is there it's a City full of
tremendous lists out a bunch of them
there's a full of more than six or eight
and there's clo at the time if you look
through the documents thatav kamki
publishes there was at least two CL that
were run where people learning like K
this is a whole story of the CL in in
that period of time this is like small
little kyos that they had where the bre
CL we once mentioned in an episode it
was very people was funded by some rich
people okay
anyway bottom line is he must had a
great reputation we're not sure what
it's based on but they definitely
checked into him and this is very
important they checked in him and in
1771 he gets the job okay not only is he
the he's the and he has a Yesa he always
mentions it in as I said even when he's
handling the introduction ofus and
everywhere he's talking about now we
don't know how many people are in thisa
not only that we don't know any of his
that learned there which is now it
doesn't mean just because he had a
Yeshiva that it's this massive Yeshiva
400 or something but he had a Yesa okay
okay now let's um before we get into
more let's go specifically into for
let's just devote very briefly a few
minutes into the actual two
famous they published many times the was
first published in 1787 and
1801 comes out we have from
Fran and you see already a few years
after 1787 writing to him and saying in
TR in his truis that we have of his give
so we see that they say oh you're an
expert in ezzar we saw in your on Onis
so writing to you this and this chuva
okay so we see right away the safer is
being accepted and one of the that's one
way of seeing that it's very popular
another way is it was published many
times
buter in recent years discovers much
more material of for they publish it
they have
ofus who you'll have to wait to hear the
episode on him but in in the episode on
him we discussed briefly there's a
he's done a lot into the
words so you see right away his his
material is being handled the great
great writes in a letter about getting
it's a famous saer everyone's using it
out fine what's the the so just to
mention briefly when you look through it
carefully you'll be able to find there's
a major emphasis on he
uses at the time he's one of the first
that are using that were available
the
r this is these are that we spoke about
in the episode K and on he has them and
he uses them CAD this opens up many
doors to new Tyra and this is a whole
discussion after now he uses
the so much so at one point he says I
just got
the
he the saer is done T into the Shak of
the gash tons into the mar which we
spoke a little bit the significance of
this in the
episodes hundreds of times he quotes the
mar but we'll see more about that now
the Yeshua is written in 1739 not so
much earlier so you'd say what can you
add and you see already the sa is a
massive to and he deals with theu
hundreds of times so we see a the impact
of the P we see that he still felt he
has what to add but he does it no um Z
okay and we see
it's he also brings the which is also
unique for also a different story also
as I said he's very in he even devotes
in both
the sections completely dealing with K
fine just to mention the introductions
that he writes and publishes for the and
the are incredible with full of to
relating to Li other aspects which we'll
touch on shortly okay does he have any
other so the answer is me say did he
write other from it sounds like he has
okay someone recently sent me a
recording a recent recording of R alter
from G and R alter was giving a Shear in
front of gam this is this is taking
place rashash time Al me he says he's
telling them Masha from
he
says he says I'm call that it's really
then he says did you know wrot
called and he says um now interestingly
enough I was not able to find that he
wrote a like this mean to say he cross
references in his writings all the time
his other but it's possible that there
that he does mention even by name the
saus but he says said that he heard a
dealer had theor of
re 40 50 years ago and then suddenly got
lost sadly he was bought by someone who
knows what happened he doesn't care what
it's worth just publish it it's beyond
important says then he says telling this
to tum 16 17 year olds you don't you
don't know that the is so sweet the in
it is amazing and then he says on you
could dip the into the safer it's he
keeps on saying this and he's looking at
these B and he's saying it looks like
I'm the only m know that knows about the
safer that understands safer no one no
one understands it but then he goes on
and gives a whole thing from the the H
anyway is there other masas from that FL
over the years published and the answer
is yes they found the different masas
nice amount of material even on bab so
that justifies us even though is already
learned bakama we're doing it during the
bakama time so there's material a nice
amount of material and Prince this
massive set and in this massive set they
have all the stuff like it's eight
volumes
fine okay um and then as they said in
1837 a chuva safer of his is published
now interestingly enough to throw out
there I always have to throw out says
that it's interesting sometimes you can
have that one particular safer there
becomes famous and a different saf there
is not known he
says unbelievable impact it's much less
used barely anyone even knows that he
has a Chua safer let alone what the name
is but his safer and
everyone knows there's different times
different reasons behind why certain
writings of different get more accepted
there's no real reason
behind it's all tot in in okay anyway up
till now I'm obviously avoiding and now
we're getting to the action over here as
they say what's going on did he write
anything else the answer is everyone
knows that he wrote a work he mentioned
in the introduction to us
called so through the safer we're going
to get to what the controversy in recent
years has been about FLW and we get to a
whole new that made him also very very
special and this is like
this when I mentioned just now that he
has these Hamas and these hdas to theas
and and the to kadan which are
incredible they need to be learned over
and over they have tons
ofas with
about and for R also should learn them
in general which I'm going to quote this
time one or two things from there but I
mentioned he quotes the now looking
through the work you'll find that a is
beyond important for him not only is he
concerned with
every but he's also every from and K
which has a nice amount of a he deals
with it equally and the t is beyond
important he always throws it into the
mix okay fine so not only in
his and his
but in this it's a tremendous work in
the world
of beyond beyond important okay now this
gets us to the story of the I mentioned
his brother he says he learned by his
brother everyone
knows tremendous one of the great
early and we have to be clear I'm saying
this at the outset we have linkage of
the flaw and
and where do we have this writes this in
more than one place and we
have from a great mag and in his he
mentions that he who did he see when he
was by the mag he would say these two
brothers ofka and afla so no one is
denying that that he saw mean say no
one's making up and saying the a never
saw the m at all has nothing to do with
him what are you talking about okay
as the stories go and in in different
parts some people like to some groups of
people make more stories than others or
really I actually think all groups like
to make stories about
their so there's a whole genre of
stories with and and if you look at the
beautiful para um weekly paraa sheets
that comes out Alum L trua from Bells
from antp so they have writeups in
almost every issue about all types of
not
only
and they're excellent they're excellent
writeups always so they have two
articles way back about afla so right
away you could you have to understand I
just want to stop you here for one
second this may be one of the first
times you are quoting from paraa papers
and parha sheets so people should take
notice that you're you're um suggesting
and encouraging certain par sheet Tru
which I agree I don't see it around a
lot it doesn't get put out of my
but fascinating content for years and
years and years and I see that happy to
hear and see that you read them yes so
the truth is that it's not always
accessible for me I I wish I had access
to it on a steady basis a lot of times
they do get to my Shool but a lot of
times they don't sometimes they're
available online sometimes they're not
they're very not it's like you have to
have to get on their email list
sometimes they add people to the email
is not some not and sometimes they have
M incredible material related to other
things also so if anyone here is
listening and has pull and connections
to get Rabbi Dr elzar brought onto the
alua email list please reach out help
help him out help him out he doesn't
have enough papers in his house just my
wife might not be happy with you anyway
the point actually you could get in PDF
so then it's fine anyway so in this in
this essay on the FLW right away you
could see the do of this
great and they bring makus now m
are real the balatan and the and others
are much much later and their heart
again doesn't mean that they're not real
they're okay fine if me say if they were
just those sources we wouldn't even link
him at all to the mag okay fine now
which I'm very fond of the aliar I quot
um I quote her every once in a while was
a r in in um T and this person was a r
who had a massive swarm collection and
the whole swarm collection was donated
to the Li
there and you could see till today
it's so he had May in and he brings also
a whole thing about the pmy office it's
published he writes the year it's
published he has the wrong year but he
says it doesn't have in it t of the B it
doesn't have anything of the the Magid
what's going on everyone knows that that
flaw is from the of theal of the mag so
he says someone told him a r in in in um
R told him that it's said that in V they
saw the kavad the original kavad of the
py office and that they had and in there
there is material from the B and from
the m and it was taken out it was
censored and he says there's probably
much more and he says um this is a
terrible censorship and um and there's
other fed that also mum do censorship
okay
they're fine um he brings down that
someone mentioned to to someone over
here in Tel Aviv about a manuscript to
the he didn't have money to buy it okay
fine so but this story I'm quing from
there's other um um sources there the
different that said this that
it's had in it tons of ofas it was taken
out
okay fine now I have found in my life
many times people claim something and
simply careful searching proves that
these claims that were said are not
really true we have a massive safer in
front of us okay so first of all um
let's go with the aspect of
censorship now no one is denying that he
he was by the Magid we don't know but
that's all we know he went to the mag
how many times by the mag he sat by him
for how long what did he exactly learned
by him what was his connection but the
the the sentiment that they want to make
into him that he was a hidden all those
33 years that he's a in Frankfurt is a
little stretch but they we'll see a
little bit more about this shortly buter
it's taken out the materials are taken
out the question is who's taking this
material out so at one point they say
his son took it out okay now his son we
know is already in frankt with him a
tremendous
WR close correspondence with him even
does a and his daughter marries his son
I think it's his son if not it's his
nephew and the point is we have his
truis and we have his drush and we know
he became he took over his father Stella
and his father
dies unbelievable es and materials in
those for but the point is there's no
way in the world we don't have any
evidence whats that he had anything
against that he's going to censor his
father's work you have to understand the
censorship is also more because we said
the afla writes his introduction who's
rabar so the censorship took place in
his lifetime he didn't write who his re
the mag mezich is he only says his
father and his brothers okay now the
problem is like this when does the SE
come out and how does it come out so
this is a fascinating thing and this is
actually what sparked my whole interest
into going deep deep into that flaw is
like this my hero as you like to call
it he's always somehow gonna get
involved over here buter as I mentioned
in the past he made it his business to
have to do with the before him at a
young age he's already in correspond
with the he's into the he loves the okay
when the dies he makes sure to get the
manuscripts of the he gets the
manuscripts of the pal he is the person
who publishes the funds it edits it puts
it out in
1825 now what's the problem the problem
is without getting into it right now is
according to all one of the great that's
sympathetic quote unquote to use graba
terms
with so who's doing this censorship so
you mean to tell
me didn't realize that this work was
censored because it came the way he
describes it was a mess tle was a mess
so someone went we don't know who this
person is but we chalk it up to the city
of Frankfurt is this evil city but I
already mentioned the out the city of
Frankfurt at this time this is not a
evil city it's a k of a city who are in
love with their R so they're not no
one's tampering with the materials of
that flaw that he's really bringing
materials what's another they say
there's tons ofas in there but you can't
see it he the the rashis and the
initials and all the pieces so I I
challenge and I I'm be more than happy I
have no problem whatsoever if it is
AER tell me take a a bunch of pieces and
show me these pieces are straight up
from only found not if I find that also
also go
with that other people before did which
has been proed
cader take a piece many pieces let's say
known Ty which is New pieces of the
maggot so to speak and show as it's yet
to been done yes at one point they try
to find a few such pieces but a few
pieces doesn't make a difference but
we're going to get more into this in a
moment my point is the censorship is a
problem you're you're accusing the son
of the FL
who's or these are not people at least
for me don't start up with them
fine but you whatever it is you could
always blame it on these unknown people
which will get back to they have work
out for them that they do have something
possibly to blame it on anyway the point
is let's go focus a drop on this work
what is this work so the
law is incredible I I recently made a s
there to try to learn it weekly and it's
full of everything tons ofas I have no
idea but cabala AR yes those pieces go
way over my head but there's tons of
regular fascinating ideas and tons of
stuff handling in
the everyone knows I'm I'm going to get
to an example of that he says
shortly all the that we have endless
amount of literature from the prous and
onwards how did
the based on thear and about it and he
has these three famous trashes and we
have reel much later on dealing with it
and M endless literature about it and I
hope to deal with it in episode
shortly but the point is that the um the
point is he in the C he's constantly
dealing with it and how he's learning it
up and he's showing and he's showing of
his his and his unbelievable stuff going
on how he's careful reading the okay
Rashi ra he deals with all these
things okay but what makes this that
it's so
incredible so interestingly enough I one
day a few years ago I decided to pull
out the safer and I start looking at the
safer I'm trying to like forget about at
the time the all the articles about it
so I shouldn't have any try to remove
myself from any bias whether it's a work
whether it's a work whatever the work is
it's a work it's an unbelievable work
okay what is the work and all of a
sudden I'm starting to look at and I see
tons of times it's
handling tons of times
handling okay also
again tons tons I recently decided to do
a computer search hundreds of times okay
not One V two vs okay have nice what
pass sa fine so I go back to my
hero sois as I said he's the person who
publishes the safer and funds the safer
he's trying to talk and he's and he's a
of that for someone wants to read the
three four pages not three pages it's
close to 10 pages that he wrote about
thew and the and the saer and his own
tyus throwing it in he then he says
about the safer what is the safer he
says then he
says okay and then he
says
I don't have to go any further I was to
my hero I look further in the now you
have to understand as I said he's this
guy who does make sure that I think he
must have been behind and getting so
first of all the first has SC of the
sfers from the up
writes so we see again the point I'm
bringing out the
ties he doesn't mention anything you're
putting out the mag's biggest helm
we nothing fine say then we have a
beautiful and we're gonna see and
shortly about it we have theas
again we
have writes it was given
to puts it out it's not a big deal we're
g get the tal okay who do we have
another as
from T Frank again what does he
say again Frankl is very very
sympathetic to his ties to the S through
M so the point is the safer they learned
the safer they knew what the safer is
and that's what they say the safer is so
even if you can say there's really these
now I can't talk about it first admit
these the pieces are above my head in
the first place so but the point is this
it's not um it's not okay one minute but
what what's going on what happens over
here so first of all we have to
understand is there any conclusion to
the story of these missing pieces and
more than that what's going on over
here
so the answer is like this um so first
of all oneuda I really need to be
Mish so sorry oneuda is I'll fast
forward to the end and then we go back
to the theory because the theory is
important anyway and that is like this
the fast forward to the end is 2010 it
turns out there is a manuscript of the
Pam which has materials not found in the
Pam a whole volume of material there's a
a journal that came out for a long time
from the B ofas called and there this
Cass there were many pieces
of that flaw that were not found in the
P turns out there was in Belgium that
had the p in his collection how he got
it is mysterious I can't get into the
details right now um but the point is
that he had it eventually it ends up it
seems it's in bar Park
and located the manuscript a copy of the
manuscript and what happens is in 2010
2012 part of the set on the PanAm office
put out by from his name is just this
person needs credit for his job I
believe his name is R gross um and this
his name is R gr gr decides to learn the
Pam and he puts out five volume work on
the p and is like this the p is CAD
throwing himself all over his this all
over and he's and he writes very so he
throws you if there's a if a if there's
a pamas somewhere else that could help
you understand it it's incredible to use
this work it helps you understand the
pamas because a lot of times he could
write few more lines in a different
place that sheds light into it other
times it's based on that he said
elsewhere so this fellow kamki hooks up
with him and he publishes the the
missing work the edited piece volume of
the P again what do we find here so this
is a he claims his in here it's yet to
be proved it seems it's heavy cabala um
part it's very hard again there's no
names there's no nothing okay and the
answer is it's it's not true at least in
my opinion my biased opinion that there
was no censorship whatsoever of taking
out names of the Great beforehand or
materials that might be claimed to be
okay but now what's going on and this is
we get to the last two NAS that we have
with we have three more Nas with I'm
sorry to reach the end number
one I keep on saying that this city is a
city you have to understand people that
read
the is proud is born in Frankfurt that's
where he gets to meet the AF holding
calling him one of the main people he
calls myi is the AF from these years he
never goes back when he leaves at 19 and
he's proud of this city he holds this is
aush of a city so we have to understand
we're talking about this is the period
of time that flaw is getting higher this
is the time that flaw is active it's a k
City it's not a problematic city as I
said
in the city okay and the always called
himself a frankurt city frankurt okay so
what's going on over here turns out like
this a tragic story happens and this
story is like
this they discover a letter from the
great God which we mentioned a little
bit about him in the episode The get of
cleaves steinard so this great
y basically wrote We they found a letter
where he's writing
to who we also spoke about in the get of
C's episode about what's going on
there's something going on in the city
of Frankfurt when is this happening a
few months after
thew is in the city so the understanding
is that basically that steinhardt was
writing to theud telling him to tell the
you're pretty much so you're coming to
the city of Frankfurt Casas is not for
the city and don't do or act do things
openly don't have anything to do now in
those years what's happening is and this
mentions it and has it there is a
floating around this is right when the
first against came out which talks about
the variousness that the people in L and
Galia had
against so the fear
was by the mag is coming in and he's
going to fear ice and he turned
Frankfurt into City so tell tell the
okay you know write him a letter we
don't have this letter the problem is
like this when you read this letter
carefully this letter is talking about
something else most of the letter is
dealing with Adler who's Adler so anyone
who knows anything about always
knows is is this
tremendous who did all types
of he reinstituted daily in his CL where
Isler from the city of Frankfurt he's
born in Frankfurt he's a talmud amongst
others I think from leaving from the
Yeshua um and also a talmid of a friend
of from descendants of ram
anyway this time explodes a controversy
against rosan Adler which we're not
going to get into all the details but
the point is that he was doing all these
like hugus and these materials and this
pulus was happening literally in those
in that kufa
and they were getting very nervous about
it Ras ma in Frankfurt was getting very
nervous from rnas Adler and you have to
understand they're come from the same
Bas Med so this is fascinating they're
seeing it and they were getting nervous
he was learning they were doing various
things that they're mentioned in the on
this topic um that came out and we're
not going to go into all the details of
this pulus but they basically rocked the
city of Frankfurt at the time M that
were raised in the which was for a
different there was called like in the
term people that were
being in his private CL which the city
of Frankfurt they got very nervous from
so basically it's not that the flaw was
the one that was being accused if you
read this document very carefully as far
as I'm able to see has nothing to do
with that flaw has nothing to do with
them shutting K they want to say that
what happens is that fla comes in G no
no be quiet don't talk about it so
basically he gets the job they now you
have to understand who's the against
he's the one behind them him ra getting
the job so they know he's a person or so
to speak and they still take him but
then they right away shut him down and
say make sure don't you ever say a word
anything mget I don't want to hear a
word or you gonna get booted out
ridiculous thing to say that they're GNA
say this on the god that they hired
Beyond but not only that tons of things
are me this pink has in depth about the
never once does it say by the way we
said to that floor when you come by the
way you didn't realize you're getting a
job over here
don't say a word anything kidish over
here we're going to throw you out this
is a city a city they didn't know
anything about they had nothing to do
never came to this area of in Germany
okay anyway the point is that there's a
lot to say about this a lot written
about it the is its own episode we're
not going to do that let's just um
conclude with the last three Nas briefly
and that is as follows um number one the
Pam y as I said it deals with
the so um as I said there's a ton of
literature about it so there's
that that FLW says numerous times and
this plays out in controversy that took
place few years 20 30 years after he was
that as as follows we
know how do they do shabas says like
this that we know how does the Jewish
calendar work it goes the night and then
the day so the way the other kept shabas
is they did the day and then the night
so then it's not a problem because they
weren't doing shabas the way it was
after Mountain Tyra there's
a few places this himself now this
actually plays out in a whole famous
controversial deal between one of the
controversial pieces of the and we're
not gonna get into that but does this
have
any turns out it does basically in the
1840s there was a gedc a guy who was
who's looking him to be M and everything
and he on Thursday it seems in the
beginning of the week he gets the MAA
but it wasn't healed properly so um he
couldn't go into the mik yet come shabas
what are you going to
do was away fundraising this is taking
place in
1848 he's fundraising and the Shila was
this this G is getting sick what should
you do and the point was he said what do
you mean you didn't you weren you did
the but you didn't do so you have
to so you still don't have a dinner of
Yi this he gave a whole
and that time in the journal which we
spoke
about everyone mixed in
fine the great J RAB J in contemporary
problems has a whole mass of piece about
this n different about this he over
here that that what someone wanted to
this that you see that before what what
a that this person could have done that
he wouldn't be
considered would be to keep in this he
says turns out doesn't like this he says
has
this which is anyway doesn't mention but
it turns out it's a fasing Chua because
it got mistaken to be in the
CH whatever not for now and bottom line
is the in the back writes that the P he
brings down this P he says he doesn't
like it he has why not fine anyway point
being that the P I'm just throwing out
Auda how the p is
okay fine just fast forward the
pulus is one of the famous pulus that
the does get very involved with he's
antiel Wesley whoever you want to call
him the beer of Mendon he gives a famous
published first
by the Pam this new edition this new
volume that they discovered in 2012 so
to speak they put it in from manuscript
har okay anyway lots of different things
about it um we're not going to go down
this thing because I hope to actually in
a series of mine that I hope to um
start releasing on the eventually to
deal with the whole pulus of of and the
beer and what roll and this was okay
fine but the point over here is and this
leads us to our end is the and that is
like
this as I said just now he's anti he's
anti the beer he's anti Wesley so
there's a a v is supposed to say over
that he heard from his reab that if you
find a person wrot but he doesn't
publish anything
on or on but he just writes
about Tyra it's a problem and he says
this is when when did that FL say this
in the times when the SPM of Mendelson
and Wesley came out okay so
fine so we see that and possibly to what
we know about the of Menon which is is
also it's a massive Own Story okay fine
now the once it comes out as I said he
gives this beautiful as to
Salman and the point is that um he's
using it all the time there's even a m
that says that he quotes it in all his
Dres from the 1820s and 1825 when his
published he's quoting it all the time
interestingly enough when he talks about
his Reb he says he never heard them say
publicly the say in a interestingly
enough in that D that he said that was
published which is one of the only Dr as
we have that against tal there he quotes
a few times as I said in the pom off he
says that a bunch of times but who said
he said those names when he spoke on and
but in this that's published that he
gave in 1780s he quotes a few times I
okay but there's a famous thing of the
now this is and this to conclude with
this and this is as
follower is the tal of the we don't even
know exactly how much he learned by him
when he learned by him but what famous
is and and as I said we don't even know
who the other tal of the FL is and this
is you saw these two last two sentences
is Insight in general that says number
one I said is if you look in that
so he talks about a question that many
people in grapple with first some people
grapple should you go into because it's
gonna affect in their learning when you
learn not it's not the
same that should not be when you learn
with you have to understand that you're
not going down in a d through
unbelievable and you get you don't go
down at all don't worry about it says
the in beautiful ter beautiful language
then says in his in his introduction
this is I believe
in he says that um you should know that
you get much more from the tal than the
t gets from you and we find this concept
many times with different gum that they
say that the that they had being a rebi
is unbelievable so to conclude that we
don't even know we know that he's a rebi
rash we know he had but who is the
person that we know
who's no one is under D to talk about
him but if that's your tal was
definitely worth it and we see the words
that flow were definitely with this
anyway obviously that flood is many more
things to go down the Pim that I said
publishes we have mercy on the audience
but these are just some of the issues
with the great to discuss with the great
G of a and some of them hopefully we
will return to in the
future wow this was a packed episode I
haven't seen you animated and excited
while discussing a topic I have to be
very careful I might get banned from
this episode you know yeah yeah know
this this really brings out your fire
and passion a lot more than discuss
manuscripts manuscripts I'll tell you
I'll be honest like this I was very
controlled just to be honest because I'm
being recorded I have to be controlled
if I wasn't being if I wasn't being
recorded forget about it but anyway
that's exactly my point this is with
being controlled correct correct anyway
do you want to quickly turn around and
pull out a safer yeah uh give me one
second as we're talking about the the K
Journal so it's still current today one
could sign up and I think you can get it
it comes out once every two months so
over the recent years I see a fellow YF
sapron he's writing about Kadesh
everything about Kadesh these massive
articles
okay all of a sudden I see and this not
the first work but I see a five over 500
page work from this fellow all about
kades
everything
from and it looks beautiful where he
basically goes through the
he deals withad all the Alles everything
he deals he has sections devoted
to that go like him the r the everything
cabal the world when you say it when
don't you say it all different aspects
it looks like a very well done liot it's
printed very nicely and looks like it's
worth um mentioning it looks like this
and as I said since we quoted a bunch of
things from the Isel some of the
Articles of this were published
originally in the Bas iron
V okay excellent thank you very
much this episode probably won't be out
and published on Kaneka but I could wish
you a happy Kaneka anyway
and thank you very very
much
