Rabbi Aaron Dovid Poston: The Fiery Message of Rebuke from within the Burning Bush

[Music] good evening everyone welcome to the Beit Midrash be given abatement Rosh and welcome home to Torah by the way if I never introduced myself even once my name is rabbi Aaron Poston I earned that with Poston and that's who is here speaking with you so we have people online people in Skype we have a live audience and we have people who are going to be watching this as time goes on it once it's uploaded it's uploaded it's really there's no date you know it's like good until right this is eternal the words of God are eternal not my words right so we're gonna speak words of Torah and what we do here is we use the clea car you never heard of the clea car I did a shear once on this whole story we use his parish his explanation as the outline for our class so without any further ado let's begin we're in chapter 3 of Exodus schmoes gimel with the first pus ik and it tells us that motion was shepherding the Sheep of Jethro this is when he has an encounter with the burning bush why does the Torah need to tell me that he was shepherding the Sheep of the Israel the Hebrew says Moshe hi aroma at sown at you sir oh sorry Moshe hi Roya at Sonja's room right he was shepherding the Sheep of Jethro what is it about a shepherd why do we need to know that he was shepherding the Sheep of Jethro so the clear car begins by telling us I'm will have a for shame this is written all over on the Oral Torah the rabbi's have said the future karo apostle did you know that pursue that a shepherd is not going to be a valid witness he's pursue he's considered a thief a thief why why is he considered a thief I'll tell you why I'll Shamari the heimeau's bestows a Karim because what does he do he takes the Sheep these goats and he goes into people's property and lets them eat the grass okay listen if you had open wide areas that were government land and there were permits and you're allowed to that's one thing but they're shooting a legato any row at any Shepard is basically considered as suspected and suspicious as a thief what's the problem with that which I'm a motion remain oh well now you're talking emotional mainly we're talking almost all the prophets were shepherds unbelievable they were thieves no wait till you hear this this is exactly why the clear car explains that they were the Sheep of someone else the Sheep of G of Jethro because a person will never sin if there's no personal benefit if they're not his sheep then he's not going to put himself in a position to sin listen to the words okay Tom wash its own Abel how you show you sir that's exactly why the Torah is telling me they were not his sheep they were the Sheep of someone else in other heights of low low a person will not sin unless there's a personal benefit in some way if he's not benefit at all he's not gonna sin of Amoco McCall nevertheless what did we say about most of our prophets they were all almost all of them were shepherds nevertheless that truckload iya there's a necessity to tell us what Shahi Arora nevertheless Moses was a shepherd in fact this is why God chose him this is why God chose Avram this is why God chose many of our prophets because they were a shepherd and one sheep gets lost and they're running after that lost sheep and they take responsibility and that's what a leader is and that's an unbelievable example he says keroth intervene but Lully Dana who love meto haria most of the prophets all became high level prophets why because they were they received their prophecy within the aspect of their shepherding key luis really hit bone adduce in order to reach that level of prophecy one needs isolation solitude why is that necessary why is that so necessary alienation yerucham I am a seed Elohim it's through sitting around looking at the skies you have that free time you have nothing else to do but you think about God you're thinking about them it's serious of a sham you think about wow what unbelievable things in nature right whether it's cloud formations whether it's just the stars anything in nature looking at the trees the butterflies the birds on and on and on right and it says in psalms chapter 8 verse 4 when I see your heavens this is King David speaking by the way this is in Psalms 2 hilum chapter 8 verse 4 when I see your heavens kierra shemekka it's what it's the master at Sparta it's the work of your fingers the moon and the stars that you have established ok so you're talking about someone who has free time to examine and contemplate and think and meditate on nature he are you deity a call moksha Toberman see a chemise bra because of this meaning the ability to be in tune with nature all of these thoughts are thinking about God thinking about creation thinking about the afterlife thinking about what was perhaps before what's the purpose of life ah - err yah Allah Amaru Muru ah Hashem until there's a woken within the person something is stirring within him - what that the the the Spirit of God will descend upon the person Masha ain't no Mitsuko the yo shape the base oh how I used to a zoo melaka harris beside that this is not going to happen necessarily so easily it's certainly not common by someone who just sits around in their home or who's doing specific work in the field right if you're doing agricultural work it may be numbing to the brain because it doesn't take a lot of thought if you're doing the work but you're being particularly careful about where you're putting the seeds or how you're doing the harvest whatever kind of work you're doing the field you at least you're focused on something but you're not focused on God necessarily right when you're a shepherd you're free just free to think about nature and a sham Zula Tarot how you shave low pay Nui the Rove has money the exception would be of course would be a a shepherd who's able to sit with free time at least most of the time right of course when you're walking along the way so you're very worried about the lost sheep right you're concerned about making sure they're all together but once they're going to start eating they stop now what are you gonna do play your flute right play your flute and sit and and just be happy right that's a great job for many people many people we know many people that would be a great job for them okay so we will continue now we're in verse 2 so it says like this then an angel of God appeared to him the yera mala Hashem a love but how and where did this angel appear to him the Labatt ish in a blaze of fire me talk has met with in the bush now what kind of bush is this so let's just get our facts straight we're not talking about a tall tree we're talking about something that grows close to the ground that's a bush I'm gonna give it away now because we will talk about it it's going to be a thorn bush it's not a simple bush it's a thorny bush ok let's go on with the Clea car he says the Mara's ooh-rah boja dales regarding this vision that Moshe had there are many insights and opinions eh-oh means he'll begin to list a few of them some say she he ashamed emo enoki but Sarah in fact Rashi brings us down as well yes Roger she brings it down that it's a bush also the fact that if you look in Psalms 91 verse 15 this was one of the main lessons and it says he will call me and I shall answer him Ukrainian a who now these are the main words ie Moe enoki but Sara I am with him in his pain I am with him in his distress we could say Jakob de you so I will rescue him and I will honor him I shall honor but the part is I am with him in his distress what that's somehow relating to this to the bush the burning bush the so-called burning bush it's all about God is with him in his the strain in the distress so now we're going to understand what it means to be in distress okay so based on that alkane niggler all lavas snap this is the very reason that God revealed himself within what we call the snare the snare is the thornbush eight Scheffel than a moose it's a very simple humble lowly bush it's not a tall cedar it's not a palm tree it's not a maple or an oak it is a bush well the parish Rashi ain't him will you shark la lama dr. bliss nan now let's look at Rashi he does not strive in Russia for that ya go back to page one from within the thornbush but not from any other tree because I am with him in distress that's all Rossi says but why a thornbush he may he might have answered why a bush in general why is it that it was low and humbly humble like a bush that and not a tree but something that is lower towards the ground so the clear car wants to answer like this he says Rashi doesn't really help us the hom Reem you know what it's all about sure hots net remiz the ship float on shalyah trow that ready for this the ship Latin means the suffering of the Jewish people that this thornbush hints to the suffering that the Jewish people endure th hat sorrows mitla hats devolve because this tradition flame that is burning all around them a 900 Cal but it doesn't consume them now this we're going to discuss on a positive side and a negative side really it's all positive but we're not going to see it always so positively but hopefully we'll understand it better by the brits room and he says I'll Derek there's a way to explain this there's a little bit complicated but I'll say the words and I'll try to explain it heats i Colleen the Haim a nun Colleen God says if you Jewish people are not acting properly I'm gonna send my fury I'm gonna send my anger into you these are called arrows I'm gonna send my arrows and you know what I'm gonna run out of ammunition the ammunition the arrows are gonna be empty right there's no no arrows left in the end but you're still here you're gonna be around you will outlive the ammunition and he the clear car brings down and breaks you drama but I couldn't really find it and I wanted to see cuz he brings he says there are a lot of other examples well the theme of parati la mala now there's a verse in Exodus chapter 1 verse 12 where are we here we are so this verse is discussing the idea how the Egyptians were disgusted because of us so let's read the whole verse but as much as they would have flicked them meaning the Egyptians would afflict us so did they multiply we nevertheless multiplied and so did they gain strength nevertheless we did not wither and they were disgusted because of the children of Israel the ikutsu nickname in Israel now what does it mean they were disgusted the word of this cults coach is a thorn now there's a lot of different ways one interesting way which I will just Express now is that they themselves thought of themselves as code seemed in relation to the Jewish people who are like a very lush grape vine and tree what do you see the difference one is has value and one has almost no value valueless right and that's how they saw themselves because they even said they're gonna multiply so much less they they they go to war with other people and then we kick us out what does that mean in terms of let's say when the Jewish people when we ended up in Israel God cleared the way by getting really the Canaanites for us right wasn't easy took many years but eventually they would be gone they were the weeds and we were the grape vine that was uprooted from Egypt and planted a replanted and relocated in now they also saw us as grapevines meaning the Egyptians and they saw that in the relation to them they were the coats so that's one way to read they were disgusted don't read it in English they were disgusted but the ikutsu they thought of themselves as valueless look at that Rashi they were disgusted with their own lives that's one way to read it many and the Egyptians were disgusted with themselves which would be easy to understand why however this is the interpretation we're gonna use on one level the rabbi's interpreted to me the Israelites were like thorns in their eyes okay we're not going to interpret it that way now we're going to open a whole nother way that we were thorns in I'm sorry they were thorns in our eyes now watch this go back to the clear car she omits Reem name Cholula coaxing that the mature the Egyptians themselves were compared to thorns Kihei me Lehi Ullaeus rail lit coats massive they were the troubling and painful thorn in our eyes alkane Hara Lockridge Morocco shots net and a new cow and so God showed Moses this this thorn bush that was the flame was inside but it was not being consumed your most out pyro this would hint to something about parallel listen to this Rafa pH had sorrows mitla hots vivo even though right we'll talk about the plagues right everything that was troubling Farrah was gonna be surrounding him there was going to be a lot of anger and different types of you know anger from God the coma come in a murukku nevertheless he would stick around till that tenth play right because why key table crush mark hukill is baccala MCOs God strengthened him so that he would be able to survive all that Mako's all the ten plagues as it looked look in chapter nine verse 16 when Moses says to Pharaoh but for this reason God to speak you know speaking through Moses I have allowed you to stand i basically allowed you to stick around in order to show you my strength and in order to declare my name over all the earth that moses is speaking to pharaoh in god's name your you and you ain't getting out of this so quickly right you're gonna we're gonna make sure that all these ten are gonna go through you might say yes no you're gonna flip flop all the way through yeah but in the end hashem is going to give you strength to go through through it all so i'm just going back on one very important point that we that we say that those who read the words again jihei my yulia srila coats Macheath they were to us as thorns when the Assyrians are called the rod the rod of Hashem right the Assyrians come and attack us right when the anti-semites come and attack us it's not them alone remember everyone has free will they have less free will right but why would the Egyptians punished in the end if God says I'm gonna put you in a place right a nation that's not yours a land that's not yours you will serve them you right you're gonna serve them you're gonna afflict you why should they be judged for doing everything that God wanted them to do because they went overboard well would you say okay that's what answer maybe we could have been someone else someone had to step up to the plate thank you okay so these that's one answer maybe the Egyptians are held responsible or it would had to be Egyptians but the Egyptians went overboard and therefore they were going to be held responsible for going overboard okay so the clear car continues devar affair alternatively remiz lamajune mr now to those who are hearing this for the first time this may be a shocker Uzi but I want you to know this adds credibility to the oral torah that we could be so critical of ourselves remember if a human being wrote the torah why would they put in all the and stuff right all the incest or all the playing around with you right when I said incest I met lote than his two daughters with Yehuda and Tamar his daughter in law why would we hear all this what do we need to hear all this dirt for because there's a certain amount of honesty and integrity and it shows you that humans did not write it if humans wrote it they certainly would have left certain things out okay so here we have in Chapter two of exodus verse 14 when Moses was confronted by Dustin and avi rom remember he had already Slade Slade killed an Egyptian using the ineffable name leader in the hay and the vanator with a 42 letter name but either way he used the name to wipe out an Egyptian and he had looked this way and that way and there was no man so he thought so he thought so at this point in time he is now confronted and by these two will calm troublemakers he retorted who made you a man a prince and a judge over us do you plan to slay me as you slain the Egyptian Moses became frightened and said ready I came no the HUD devar Wow he's in shock whenever I did to the Egyptian somebody knows and somebody knew and somebody told somebody or that was the assumption so how did he know so based on this nickname my mr. alien bimbisara yo Jimmy Cole Hamels the clear car is making a statement and it's unbelievable H this into your consciousness it's because of this type of action which will find out what that is in a second is why we are still in exile today the matter became known so Moses thought wow these people really don't deserve to be we deemed the fish eh bruh hem day Lots wrong what does that mean they had slanderers they had people speaking russian hara libel they were talking about each other there was a lot of jealousy and now I have to mention what is going on here one of the things we mentioned the beginning of the parsha was that one of the four things were four reasons why the Jewish people merited to be redeemed do you remember what they were they didn't change their names they didn't change their language now that has to do with actually each each name of a tribe represents Redemption looking towards a messianic era looking forward to redemption of salvation that's true so that's necessity it's necessary they didn't intermarry also necessary but one of the four things was they didn't have any slanderers they didn't have any russian hara i want to tell you there's two different types of things and we're gonna talk about this there's unity absolute unity and then there's like people talking behind people's back they're two different things absolute unity we seem to have had we seem to have had what was that let me let me give you an example of what the clear car speaks about when it comes to why we married it to be redeemed one of the things we had to leave with was a lot of wealth it was promised to Abraham and we weren't leaving without it so already before the very first of the MCOs they all knew this is it we're going to be leaving and we're going to be leaving with a lot of wealth so during the ninth plague already is when we found out where everything was during the plague of darkness and during the tenth plague we went around and we asked them could we borrow your gold and your silver okay so if a Jew would have mentioned this over that next eleven twelve months that had passed by from the first Makkah until the last Makkah that hey we're leave with all your wealth they would have been more tedious about hiding it right they would have let the Jews think that's where it is because we're always keep it but knowing things are coming down the pike they would have hit it entirely and we couldn't have left without this welcome we would still be there today so the very fact that no Jew turned on the cloud on the mission that was white hair mérida to be routine but here we're saying that people still spoke behind each other's back and still had a certain amount of jealousy and and and and hatred this is why we're still in exile so listen to this mosh meme coal I knows the hay routine the Gugu theme shall shock they the array that what they would do they would speak out Lashon Hara they would make their voices heard in negative ways and in shameful ways whether the people they were talking about were awake or whether they were sleeping Co team hallelu like thorns remember we're originally talking about why did God appear in this bush and why is the bush seem to be burning but not be consumed this is all telling us something very important Hamas meme coca shubo air base their their voices were heard as if there was crackling noises like when you put you ever sit by a fireplace or campfire you hear all the crackling and it's really nice right it could be really nice but in this case caucus Ram I feel abyss Mancha Shh hot sorrows McLachlan evolve even when God's fury is burning all around them Macomb Macomb call ahahhaha Varick coats massive each one each individual Jew is like a thorn in the other Jew okay they're causing pain whether it's through

know what it reminds me of you when you put on a teapot those old teapots these two whistle well he's not talking about that he's talking about what you put under the pot you put this some like kindling right you might have some nice wood but to get it going you always need to put some thorns or weaves or some light bush into the into the fire and what happens is that crackles and makes noise so I don't want you to go to Co helis which is Ecclesiastes 7 verse 6 and this is for as the sound of the thorns under the pot you hear that so is the laughter of the fool and so too is his heaven sanity okay so that's the verse he brings down key Coalhouse serum taka sassier kinkle axial this is the laughter of fools the Icarus about the Australia bugaloos this is the prime reason the Jewish people are still in their exile and deserve to be meat sod Hasina from the aspect of the hatred the hakuna and the jealousy yo Jimmy Cole I'm sorry shebeen a have yo cherry cola Oh mos wow this is like heavy ethical rebuke here that we hate each other more than the Gentiles of each nation hate each other in their nations ballet hallo shown now I'm not gonna claim to be a bow rush on this are the people who are eloquent speakers people who are leaders that people will listen to they need to get out there and get the word out quiche meal Escalus rail ain't Nucky they need to tell the Jewish people there's no exceptions me included we need to clean our act up there's no exceptions everyone has to pull their weight thah McLucas masala hammock locust because when the flame of this dispute the fire of dispute erupts from the rock of the subdivision I was mawari mace maybe it started a long time ago maybe it happened with the rebbe use of old or happened from leaders of past generations it doesn't matter you know what the children are doing they're bringing the wood to put on the fire so if the fire erupted a long time ago or previously and you weren't the one who lit the match you me us we're still bringing the fuel we're still adding insult to injury is that that the correct usage for that alkane Mahara they have a Hashem I skipped something no I read it a final yeah I just didn't read the Hebrew I was mildly mage but bonny malach team acing he goes on I'll came there for this fire of God burns within us and who not we're not talking about the fire like Asia Torah we're not talking about the positive fire with some of the destructive fire okay it's burning with us within us that's why it says it's the snare and a no you call that the the bush itself remember it's a thorn bush that is not being consumed a poppy Chiappa PAH Helios give our bokov even though the fire of trouble is burning within the Jewish people Macomber combat csr snare me shark I am nevertheless the essence of the snare that Bush is still in existence meaning the thorns still exists the called dor vador how in every generation and it's not being consumed kilo yo flu huh coach them in Cara Michelle for the those the thorns are not being consumed from the vineyard of God the Jewish people are called the vineyard of God that's why on one hand it's a positive we will always be around right and the Jewish group will be around who will be Jewish that's up to you we're not gonna get into that right now but but unfortunately many of us still carry the strength of of fighting and scene I'm just going down down down into this rabbit hole that there is a little hope of getting out of we have to work on our character trait the Vilna Gaon says the whole purpose of life is character development that's the purpose of life so I'm sure it bothers you what is this - guys the Cimarron they're creating such a horrible Avenue for the Jews to go down just because of their actions wait to hear one person is an entire universe every human being is an entire universe know what happens with Joshua and conquering I so what happened in the previous they were told do not take any contraband do not take any schlau do not take any of the spoils of the war and after they conquered they tried to conquer I 36 soldiers were killed how can that be we're gods on our side nobody should have died so they realize that something happened and through prophecy and navour and they understood that somebody had taken Slough the spoils that was not supposed to be taken from Jericho and they made a you would they make a lottery they already knew who it was but they wanted him to confess right there were prophets and it went down and wood they whittled it down to one particular person aha and he finally confessed but you know what it says in the beginning it says Israel sinned when you find out that 36 people died why did 36 because Israel sinned what do you mean Israel sinned one guy akhon sin 36 people had to die because the one person sinned yes you asked the question why is it just one two guys what's the big deal why do we ought to suffer that's why I asked you you sure you want to join the Jewish people we come in contact with converts people who candidates for conference say right they think they want to convert they think they want to come do you realize what you're joining we're talking about responsibility but they call communal responsibility this is why we're so trying to be sure that they have the right intent then it'll just become Jewish and then go out and start eating pork right well that's what we need is another Jew eating pork thank you very much try you know you really are sincere that's all we can tell is the sincerity that's in front of us and that's what the basting does they ask questions they get to know you and you look sincere and they get some letters from people who say you also look sincere and you keep the minces as best you can so you go through the process but that's the last thing we need one Jew can ruin it for everyone is that clear okay so we were having this previous discussion Wow I'm responsible for every Jew I'm responsible this guy and who knows where so look you're not responsible in giving tell haha that's clear because you're not around him and doesn't know you and you don't even know him but somehow another it's having an effect it's holding back mushiya right it's holding back miss yuck so what was the point I wanted to make of the whole sky that's right so the culvert sky and I think this is in his farm that he really was gog how you wanted to change the whole world I'm gonna change the whole world and he didn't he didn't and then he realized oh I should just work on myself right first I guess I have to try and change the world I can't so I'll change my country can't try to change my country can't enough trying to change my County my city and it's too much so if I change myself I actually could change a whole world remember that's all you are you are an entire universe some people are more eloquent that speech some people you'll meet on the bus some people you meet at work some people you meet at a class whatever it is you do the best you can on yourself and all the people you have in your immediate surroundings and that's really all you can do but say there okay so now the next paragraph says like this we presenting you shop mashin mr this is actually going to help resolve what it says now it says Bella bot H me toque Hoss snap now I'm going to say a few these words and they're gonna be quite confusing because in English in Hebrew it's very different in Hebrew than it is in English so I'll do my best Bella bot H that means the blazing fire me toque husna is from within the bush that's what Moses saw kiharu Lila Mae Mar the clear car says it would have made more sense to say villa bot aja busines just to say the blazing fire that's in the bush wasn't me me talk just use one letter bet to say in the bush as opposed to from within the bush oh but talk is different than me talk from within or in right it's the same thing as in the bush but though so what is me talk trying to get across so from what it says is the he may later on he says he may have snapped bow airbase no she actually says behold the bush is on fire the bush is Bel Air Base the bush is a burning with fire really it shouldn't say that it should say the opposite he may ha H verbis now it's a fire that's burning the bush it's not that the bush is burning with fire but the fire is burning in the bush that's what it should have said why because it's the H that is the PO L is the active part and thus net is that pool is the passive so that should have been clear Ella had met two but the truth is according to everything we said EOS net mouth ear a shots or us ready for this it's the bush who's the boy it's us the Jewish people are the thorns against each other it's the bush itself that ignites the fire this suffering fire this blistering fire now it's like fuel right Kimmy talk she's around neutral illest Nezha because it's from within Israel that is what we're compared to this this bush shakaal Akkad Guevara cult massive each Jew is acting as a hurting thorn against his brother who Marsh me Colo Allah buckaroo theme would be dissing and he's calling out he's making these gestures of Russian Hara of shame and negatively negativeness against other people our came the Arab mm-hm that's why the fire of God is Fernan against us in cane hasta Hapoel by asia m and who are parole so what is really the active part the active part is the snare at the de borscht is active and the fire is the passive and that's why it says he may haas man bow air base it's the bush that is burning with fire he has neck Gorham Hvar Sh it's the stance the bush itself that is igniting the flame and that's what it means when it says below about H mito Costner it's mama SH the fire that blazing fire that's in the bush kilowatt Asian Tim shock me talk us snatch that the blazing fire is the result of what is inside the snare and it's the snag or email about H it's actually the the the wood of the the tree of this bush that's closing the fire and the clear car ends that paragraph as parish knock honk this is completely the truth and the way to look at it so now we're going to go to verse 3 surah now the era Moses says I will turn now I will turn around now and look and I will be able to see right Amy and Hazaras ooh he lit rank minima comma whoo the whole idea of removing himself turning around was what in order to distance himself from this place keep cold old sheet rock Eggman in my coma whoo the whole time he was able to move away further away the yoga shelter Benina that actually the better better view he would have now what's the idea being too close will obscure the vision right when you really close up what are you looking at like this you can't see nothing but if I hold it here I guess as you can oh this is a big joke with people you see the like the older they get they hold it further away but anyway that's just an inside joke but here we're talking about the reality of the situation is when you're up close sometimes you're too close emotionally close maybe physically close to really get a whole picture so Moses says in verse three let's look at the whole verse Moses thought I will turn aside now and look at this great sight why will the bush not be burned so it's this turning away the clear cars explaining was in order for him to get a better view and he says go out and learn from the light of the Sun you go at midday when the Sun is directly over your head can you stare into the Sun can you look into the Sun know what happens when it's on the horizon you're actually 3,000 miles out of 93 million miles you're another 3,000 miles away from the Sun when you're on the horizon as opposed to straight up and down it's almost insignificant I'm sure that really the issue has to do with the diffraction or the refraction of the atmosphere I have no doubt about that it looks bigger and you can look at it when it's rising or when it's setting but either way this is the example he uses as if your 3,000 miles further away listen to what he says go out and learn from the the light of the Sun Chicago Chick Corea other mellower who as long as you're closer the closer you are to the Sun ain't no Yahoo list acabo you're not able to look at it Lucrecia shemesh but misra kuba Maariv when the Sun is in the East or the west meaning sunset or sundown a cold mist a clean bowl Nagoya humare hawk right everyone is able to look at the greater the greater the distance or zest so true this is the or of this burning bush shy of a snare the light that was inside this a bush-league or del Oro Loya commercial this talk elbow the great brightness of this light Moses was not able to look at limb Lily hit bone ain Burma who toe in order to understand it were to contemplate about its nature so to hear me out look at Jeremiah chapter 31 verse 2 where he mentions the distance past now in Hebrew and English are very different Mira Hulk Hashem nearly from a distance Hashem appeared to me really he's talking about time not space but either way in Hebrew its space mara Hulk is it is a term used for space so when God is further away from me I can see it and Marsh ma which is Mara Hulk distance of alone me Cairo the closer I am and this is true we were talking with the Holocaust today we were talking about anything that you know truly happens it's devastating or tragedy as soon as it happens it's almost impossible to really try to understand the lesson the further away as time goes on things become a little bit more clearer right your emotions are all bound up and you only have an emotional reaction when things like that happen so back in the day 20-30 years ago people used to say why did the holocaust happen I'm not saying we have an answer that's better today but the answer was then was the further off it goes the better clarity we'll have it happened so soon happens so close in time we can't answer it but maybe the next generation will okay you get the idea and that's what Jeremiah was saying and that's in time not space but doesn't matter so - he says also I explained in parshat the era if you look at the verse when Abraham is coming to do the akkada attack he's coming to Jerusalem for the first time well Justin was you know Salim whatever you want to call it and he's bringing up to Mount Moriah his son and he's the yacht the yard at the McComb a rock Hulk he was able to perceive that place from a distance okay good maybe he's on a mountaintop looking another mountaintop and he was in the valley it wouldn't be the same he had to be in a distance okay it says he he he perceived the place from afar Lathika a surah nomicon this whole idea of Moses turning away that's mentioned here is the hit rock cake minima coma who in order to distance himself kiosk Arabo only through the distance saying he would be able to perceive it properly now we're gonna get into again some of these words that you would only know in Hebrew the English doesn't justify but in these verses module Allah give our house net Moses himself said why is the snare not being consumed but no module Lord give our house now why is the snare not burning that's what he says how can he say that didn't he already say he may have snapped boyer didn't he say this the the the the the bush is burning then how can he's saying why is the bush not burning what is it what is he asking you see the difference in the verses I want you to turn to page four you'll see it it says The Thorn the thorn bush was burning with fire and then it says why does the thorn bush not burn burning is we're taller burning with fire so which one is it what he should have asked the core into the clear Carter's medulla ain't no no Luke ow he should have asked why is it not being consumed it's burning with fire it's not burning with fire no it's burning with fire why is it not being consumed that should have been the question so some say 'hi a Boyar be ox mow that it was the core itself the court the the bush itself was burning however module oh you've are gone and I share hell chaos nests move up but what Moses was asking why is it all the surrounding weaves or external branches why are they not burning why are they not being consumed why is it not spreading okay that's one attaining the Asia reims some say shot the sick lotion a Boyer that in his own mind he somehow justified what he was seeing and him what he was seeing in a logical way was maybe it's not burning so she lied because he would have thought if it was burning llama ain't a no ha why is it not being consumed none of this made any sense this was an anomaly of nature I mean if you're looking at a bush that's burning the bush should be crackling and burning right then disintegrating in your front of your eyes that's why it says module look you are that's why he actually says why is it not burning it's from his perspective it wasn't burning eh safari showed some will explain medaka mar the very fact that he says the yaar hashem ki Sarli rose it was God saw that he turned God saw that Moses turned of a way to see God saw that Moses turned

better the raw Oski ain't abort Clow then he actually would see that it's not being burnt at all that's why he actually asked a question but do I know you Bach why is it not burning this was a very very strange situation then the next piece the Omer L T crowd Halong God said do not come any closer remove your shoes now I want you to know next next time I do this we'll go into the whole idea of removing the shoes and what all that represents but right now we'll stick with the idea that God said do not come closer meaning to say haha Kazu creaver heel eros that this did some distancing is really actually coming closer in order for him to see with his own eyes pay the chicane no you should know this is what it was happening to you Eliza Iker hum near shallow yet Caravela Makkah Mikoto shahu that if it was not if if it was for the main purpose of preventing him remember God says do not come close that he should not come close to this very holy place team came hardly remember than what God should have said was the yarra sham kiselev Oh God saw that he turned in order to come remember it says he turned in order to see it doesn't say he turned in order to come close so what does

all that later on like I said we'll get to it next year in a very logical way Kaneesha dark shadow bow shem afar she okay so with that I just want to tell you look it was a heavy lesson about CMOS schema we asked what wasn't the this temple destroyed the second temple was destroyed because of CMOS Kenan the answer is yes okay so this is something that we are still dealing with we're dealing with partial just imagine we're talking about the creation of a nation the creation of a nation okay and a nation has to have this bond of brotherly love and this is what God wants us to have so at the very beginning of the formation we might as well lay it on the table lay it flat on the table get your act together none of this will serve you any good you cannot survive as a people with this type of hatred whatever that is on whatever level it is for any human being right we're talking about everyone on their own level it could be several times a day on you know in a in a very superficial way we have to become watch I mean thought running is to let things go when it comes to standing up for God we cannot let go we cannot over look things okay but when it comes to me personally we're obligated to let it slide off us like a duck with will right let's let it go let it go and with that I wish everyone a shabbat shalom welcome home the Torah come back into the Nibin a bit Madras and
