Rabbi Aaron Dovid Poston: The Name of the Illness is a Revelation of the Sin

[Music] welcome everyone home to Torah at the even abate Madras I want to mention the we're in parshat MIT sera it's a double parsha has really Sora we're gonna be dealing with the second part and I want to thank every single one of you for joining us those who are here live when the Skype call as well as anybody who's listening to this after the fact of course this is Torah and it's forever I want to also mention you're you're capable you're able and you're encouraged to subscribe to the Gibbon and YouTube channel as well as share this video and others that we have on your social media apparatus whatever it is I want to take this moment we want to pray for those affected with the coronavirus and I want to explain why it's also very important to pray I think we all know it's important to pray but I want to mention before we take 30 seconds out that you know when the person is affected with a plague such as what we're gonna talk about tonight Sarat the mature is affected with Serrat he actually has to leave the camp and call out he has to proclaim I am the pure I am impure why that's a very strange thing isn't it let me just keep silent and go hide in a cave no he's to say it and why does he have to say cuz I'll tell us so that people will pray for him yes people will pray for him and why is it important why is in his own prayer good enough perhaps there's a little bit of gum a little bit of a blemish he is a sinner right he is a sinner now here's an example that because I'll tell us the rabbi's explain to us that if someone is in prison how is he gonna get out he needs help listen the easiest way is for call the lawyer you get that one phone call maybe he'll pull the right strings but someone's gonna have to post bail so you need somebody from the outside and that's the legal way there's also what they call a hid jailbreak right how someone's supposed to break out of jail usually you know remember the old movies some guy comes riding on a horse and throws a rope around the bars and he pulls down the whole wall then the guy escapes or someone sends a cake with the key in it or a file right so you need a little bit of help from the outside so now let's take 30 seconds at least right now just consider the situation the world is in right that we should pray for all the Jews and all the non-jews all together now right for people you know specifically and in general for all those that are afflicted they should see a a complete recovery very soon [Music] okay so we are as I mentioned parshat MIT sora you'll find this in Leviticus chapter 14 now I think there's two verses here chapter verse two and three so we'll start let's just get the ideas down and I will mention outside what the clear card is bothered by and I have to tell you for us most of us who are not familiar with Hebrew are probably not bothered by most of the questions but he addresses them as if they're real questions because they are real questions and it they're very deep the answer is going to be I would say life-changing especially now that the world has been hit with an affliction such as the co vid 19 coronavirus and you understand if you have enough patience to listen to let's get through 15 20 minutes of this and you'll understand exactly what I'm talking about because the words of the clear car are I think very prophetic if you want to call it that let's just leave it it very insightful okay and everyone who hears this I believe that you will understand and come to conclusion that this is the deepest insight into what afflictions are all about okay so hang in there so the verse says this shall be the law of the person afflicted with Russ Zoet th Toraja Matsuura okay there's gonna be the law says Torah Torat omits or the law of the person afflicted with to us when beyond two hirato in the day of his purification it doesn't say the word healing but we understand his purification has something to do with his healing Luther Ella Cowan and he is brought to the coming second verse the yacht's AHA Cowan Elma hoodlum Akana okay the Cowan shall go outside of the camp and then what should he do the raw echoing the Coens gonna look at it he's only one can determine whether it was to us or whether it was healed and he's going to spray the Jemez near paw it is healed Nega hazarat min hatsue rua what's healed the legion the lesion of this affliction the lesion of the Sarat from the one who was afflicted that sir that'sa rua is the one who was afflicted okay so he I lifted for questions I'll say them to you now and then we'll read them in Hebrew some of this a lot of a lot of our classes are text oriented and I do want you to learn Hebrew number one he is called the mat surah that is the person who's afflicted which infers at this point it says this is the law of the person afflicted but it also says that when the day of his cleansing on the day of his purification so that's just a statement the question is he's not really cleansed yet is he see look at number two this statement be ohm Tahara toe comes before the day of this cleansing comes before the statement which is in verse 2 behold he is healed how is this possible how is a healing taking place or a cleansing or some kind of purification taking place before it's completely healed maybe I'm already giving you some of the answer the third statement the third question is it does say at the end of the first verse he shall be brought to the Kohen right there's a period end of sentence yahuveh l huh coin but guess what first of all if he's brought it means that he's physically or forcibly brought to the coin but what's the next verse how does it begin the Cohen shall go outside of the camp well who's going to do them is he being brought to the Cohen forcibly and if that's the case why does it say the Cohen should go outside to go outside the camp that the Cohen is going to him which infers he's not being brought to the comb but rather the count is going that's how I worded it and then this one the last question to me is a little bit more complicated because you I don't think we would have thought about it as deeply as he did but his answer is absolutely amazing and then you'll realize that it was worth worthwhile asking the question so when it says here a lesion of surahs' has healed in the afflicted person so apparently the way the clear cart says it should have been said was just as it says the lesion of the plague was healed of what of the Legion of the afflicted person it's the lesion that should have been peeled but it only mentions the lesion once in the first part and it leaves that out in the second part in other words the way he describes it is one two words of use in the beginning and one word is used in the end that I think I'm spelling it out for you that the word lesion is missing it's not in other words the lesion of the Saros was healed in the afflicted person what he's claiming it should have said is that the lesion of arras the lesion of the of the plague has been healed of the affliction of the lesion of the person and it doesn't say that okay so let's go into the clea car itself and you'll find that on page 500 tothe roof so it's where it says you're dialed in the middle of the page its page one okay so let's go to the text and it's verse to zoasty at Taurus um it's sort of cool eh right this is going to be this shall be for you the law of the matura but the word Torah is used after a tooth kora Matsuura the text the scripture calls him what a mat surah so the one afflicted is called Matsuura maschmann which in first the word maschmann is causes you to hear show a die-in Matsuura that he is still afflicted the a karma be young to hirato how is that same verse going to claim that it is the day of his purification what exactly is this purification if he still caught him at surah you can't have it both ways meaning the day itself yeah you can stop part of the day he was myth surah and after the Cowan saw him maybe then he is now pure but anyway it says on the day of his purification he is still called afflicted qiyam who Matsuura aim conn-young Torah tell if he is a mat surah it cannot possibly be a day of his purification second question if Carew Yom Tara took Odom Shama of the human ear plot how is it possible to call him or it the day of his purification before the statement which is in verse 2 behold he is healed he's not healed until I mean he's not pure until he's healed apparently but apparently not we'll see tico damara fluo ink on yom - Haruko right it's not possible - before his healing and that it could be called also his day of purification okay the next question Vova l ha : he is brought to the Cohen the word huva the word brought hula is bow cork homage MA it's inferred that he is forcibly brought and then it says Baraka soy Souza it actually seems I'm using the word seems he doesn't say seen it actually contradicts what said later on because the next verse begins via Jaco aim Elma hoots lahmacun an that the Cohen goes outside of the camp so it's mosh mosh hula Laveau Ella coin it certainly in furs here that he is not going to the Colleen but rather Ella echoing huh Lake Olaf but it's the Cohen who is as the word holy goes to him interesting and then the last question he says he it says he made near pop behold he is healed negative of the lesion of affliction from the hot surah from the person afflicted so his his languages pata fish died and the sium bajas he begins the statement with - two words the word Nega and the word Sarat but in the end the height right the CM bajas be only ends with one word but he says he could have said or should have said is at the end Minahan nagoya bits iraq from the legion of the one afflicted isn't that what is being healed isn't it the lesion itself that's being healed from the person okay so it doesn't say that it only says the person himself is being killed okay with that in mind let's now begin to clarify all these matters be recover who the clarification of the matter is as follows he says cadetship Arashi lamella poshest Azaria just as I clarified in the in earlier in this parsha toss RIA that what the terrazzo olavo not you're doing that this spiritual malady comes as a result of what we will call known sins the shame huh mukha mitts aura alright I skipped something the shame Hamacher Surratt the name of the plague itself is called Seurat we will translate it very loosely as leprosy it is not leprosy okay but it is a ski skin lesion a lesion on the skin that that appears I don't want to go through all the different ways it appears like okay it's a little bit complicated but it's something that is visible on the skin and that the coin has to look at and declare the person to be either a 100% and leper let's do that or or a doubtful leper and he's quarantine either way until a week later and it's examined okay so all we're trying to say is the name of the affliction is called Seurat and the shame how mukha Matsuura and the name of the person being afflicted is called a Matsuura so keep that in line what it's called Seurat that's the affliction and the Matsuura is the one afflicted now i as a preface I want to mention because already fur I think amok now I've been mentioning that the name coded 19 as soon as I heard Co that I realized there's a connection between the word Corona Corona means a crown that's what it means a crown Keter is a crown the word Cove it sounds like to me glory right we're talking about Hashem is cooked right kavod is glory so what he's about to tell us is absolutely fascinating that what I'm going to tell you that the name okay the name of the disease is a revelation of the sin itself and he's going to do it with Matsuura and I'm going to tell you that there's no question in my mind if that's true by this and I think it's true by everything according to all my experience in learning Torah that is true by everything there's no accident that we have to look into the way we give honor to others and to God I'm not saying nestle in that order but they're both important right we are and he uses those exact words okay so we'll see it's really see he says ki lush and Matsuura the actual language of mitsuo which we just said is the one afflicted is motes eat rah it's a it's like a two words that are stuck together what's the word and I know there's another word like there's a combination of two words they've stuck together and it becomes one word so instead of saying motes eat raw which means that the bad is coming forth he's called a Matsuura motes eat rot then what sham mote see at rot oh honey starett's Baqir bo l who's that coming forth all of the bad that is hidden within him to the outside interesting I'll tell you when I was going through puberty and my mother you know she she had some sympathy and she said you know all that I guess with the clock pitbulls and whatnot it's all that bad stuff coming out oh you know when you go through puberty you're you're really trying to find yourself but anyway so whatever negative that's on the inside has to come out but it's not as simple as that ready for the next three words legal Oh righto Becca how to reveal evil to everyone around you to the to the public okay so we're not talking about I guess we're not only talking about someone going through simple acne and puberty we're talking about someone who did a sin and we'll have to talk about what that is they did something evil they're paying the price so to speak but it's not a punishment it is it's actually prophetic right we don't have it today we have lost the ability for prophecy Hashem sends what we call measure for measure demand that's why I know the co vote and Korona are tied into what we're going through measure for measure what does it mean that God is going to send us measure for measure right if you just take it literally it sounds very cruel right I'll measure for measure you did this you get that no it's out of love that God wants to see you change right that's why he sent our prophets right I say this over and over again you think the prophets came just to pretend the future not at all the only reason they had a foretell the future was for their own credibility so you would listen to them okay and that's only the positive whenever they told you doomsday prophecies they never had to happen that only came as a warning a warning to do what a warning to change God wants to see the change and then he won't bring the calamities god forbid okay so getting back to our subject so he actually says what does it mean mote Siraj am i take all right oh honey Starrett the Kerbal el Macoutes that will come forth spring forth all that evil that's within you to the outside to make a revelation to reveal about your insides they're not good that's the word mote serum it's aura what about Seurat Seurat is a Russian is the language of surah rah so Ron Seurat take those two words 8 I don't know evil distress a very painful distressing situation meaning to say raaaah shahikot sora the evil that this negativity is very distressful as cuz i'll tell us now there is a verse in Deuteronomy chapter 31 verse 17 it has to do with a lot of negativity of future prophecy but I'm only focusing on the words who much okay it's I said Deuteronomy chapter 31 verse 17 Ramat tsurara boasted sorrows to have it translated here let's see they will be consumed and many evils and troubles will befall them okay so the distressing that's a art scroll users we're distressing in other words many evils will befall them that is what sauce is inferring now interestingly enough we don't have this today because even though biblically a man can have more than one wife at the same time the rabbi's already forbid this a thousand years ago but in the Gomorrah the term for a second wife that each wife has towards each other is called its aura that each one distress is the other one can you believe that that is their name no this is meet Micah wife no meet my pain meet my oh if my kishkes out right that's that it's a surah it's a distressful being in your life anyway so he gives an example like a Zamora the aah kraab ah the acaba right a I think it's a hornet and a scorpion so take these for example I know that if someone god forbid is allergic so they need some kind of an EpiPen and british embassy ought to sham they will survive but normally you get stung by one of these you just have to bite the bullet so to speak you have to take the pain and ride it out if it doesn't kill you first but there is no cure okay keep this in mind it's amazing he wants to bring a situation where there's a surah that there is no cure and I think why cuz kovin nineteen at this present day which is April 22nd 2020 the rosh chodesh er 5780 as of today there is no cure so we've been living for the last few months with a upcoming pandemic pandemic and ongoing pandemic without a cure so keep that in mind a physical cure Kalamata zu ain't through from the derrick whatever the he's using an example of the Hornet and the scorpion that this type of hit this type of bite has no has no cure in a natural way pack with Serrat so to this will quote surahs' I mean we don't want to coat lepers because that's not what it is but when we use that word we all know we're talking about so we don't have to go back on that okay it's not it's a spiritual illness that appears in the skin so this this thing we're going to call Seurat or leprosy has no truth of the dark ateva has no physical mal remedy to do what if there is no physical remedy Nadia Keon Hashem asked us those it's teaching us it's informing us that it's by Hashem he made it he created it it's his doing and if you go to the second the fifth chapter of second the second book of Kings I want to read it with you I want to give you the headline maybe I'll just tell you basically what's happening I want you to read a reader on your own it's a very good read I'm not even in the right place I said second Kings chapter 5 so we have this character named Naaman he happens to be the commander of the army of the king of Aram and then he was an eminent man before his master and he was very honored and now he made many victories he was a great warrior but he was also what he was a leper again it doesn't mean he was a leper he was a he had sorrows so he was part of the the Aram army and he was the right-hand man of the king so I Rahm had gone out ednan raiding parties and they captured a young lady from the land of Israel so she was working for his wife and in the house and she knew that Naaman had leprosy so she made a suggestion that there's a great man in in Israel you can go to get healed from but he called she calls him a prophet and the Prophet happens to be Elisha by the way so she said to her mistress my Master's prayer should be brought before the Prophet who is in Samaria and he will heal him from his leprosy so what do you think naman did none on mine you don't think he tried to get healed before he went in the different rivers in his area in Assyria and did many times trying to get healed so anyway he told his master such and such a girl spoke to me she's from the land of Israel so the king says you know go ahead I'll even send a letter you know if the king sends a letter it's like you would expect a person like Elisha to come out and greet him that's not what happens so anyway he went he took a lot of money with him now he brought the letter of the king and he basically says that the purdah he says that this slope to them to the Prophet that you should try to heal my my servant naman okay from his leprosy so when the king of Israel read the letter he rent his garments so he pushes off the responsibility from himself in life am i God that I can take and give life that this person sends me instructions to heal such a man of was leprosy understand and realize that he seeks it pretext against me so he throws a trap however when Elisha Alisha's the Prophet the man of God heard that the king of Israel ranked his own garments he said to the king why you renting your garments let me come now and he will realize right he wants to let the King know he's a prophet so naman came with his horses and charts stood at the entrance of Alicia's house but Alicia did not come out to greet him doesn't say that but Alicia sent a messenger saying go and bathe seven times in the Jordan your flesh would become normal again you will be cleansed now Naaman was very upset and why would you be upset you just got the greatest advice from a prophet so this is very he became enraged well he expected at least come out and greet me come out and greet me he didn't come out and greet him so that's maybe you know it affected his kavod and we're gonna talk about that affect things going on but nevertheless what kind of Hope hocus-pocus just jump in the night in the Jordan River seven times that's it dunk seven times I've already done this a million times in these other rivers right what's so special about the Jordan River is it magic so let's see so we said this is adverse 11 nah man was enraged and left he said behold I said to myself he said to himself I would surely come I thought he would come out to me and stand and call the name of his God in the Shem and waved his hand over me hoping this hocus-pocus all kinds of whatever magicians do over the diseased area and the leper would be healed No so now he mentions several rivers are not Amana and par far the rivers of Damascus better than all the waters of Israel I've already dunked all these times in these other rivers do I not always bathe in them have I not become have I become clean the answer is no he's bathed in them and nothing worked so why should going in 7 times to the Jordan it really doesn't mean it make any sense you know the truth is because the Prophet said so and that's it the Prophet said so you listen to him you do it ok but he had his own mind and he but he did it let's see and so then he turned away in the fury but his servants approached and spoke to him my father had the prophet told you to do such a difficult thing would you have not done it like what's the big deal 7 times in the Jordan River how much more now how much more so now D has told you to bathe him to come clean he went down he immersed himself seven times the Jordan and occurrence with the word of the man of God his flesh became like the flesh of a young boy and he became cleanse he returned to the man of God and he had an entire retinue he arrived and stood before him and said behold now I know that there is no God in the whole world except in Israel and now please accept a tribute for from your servant now what did he do he didn't want to take it he did not want to take it and then the rest of the story is about a guy Kazi who tricked him into taking it so we're gonna skip that for okay we're gonna go past that we're gonna go back into the clear car and the last thing we said was this is all to inform you to make known to you that it was only through a Shem right and the whole story of naman proves this right chenille hawk marathan the lavaca zoo the truth well you don't think he spoke to his own doctors you don't think that he searched for a a physical known cure for his illness and he did not find him came back really achieve le beau ha hi Ted this is going to be the most important thing why are we afflicted you know in the old days we had 6 million prophets don't think for a second only at 48 prophets there are the only things that are written down but we had 6 million prophets and time we left Israel till prophecy ended and what was the purpose of going to a prophet it was like you don't go to a doctor you didn't you went to the prophet and you looked him in the eye and you said please tell me what character trait I need to fix why is this happening to me and he would look deep inside and he would be able to tell you why you are afflicted what is your sin and therefore he said the clear card says your Shiva libo what happens by necessity right when you when you're afflicted you will return your heart from sin you'll turn away and we'll assume me darkly hurrah and turn away from your evil ways now this is you have to be sitting down for these next three words the nega shame have owned the name of the affliction is anonymous with the sin there's something embedded in the name of the affliction the name itself is going to reveal to you the sin are you guys floored by this sure who know gay a big hug sham I am I get goose bumps caveat Oh Oh big vote huh brios because what did the person do when he sinned he affected the honor float Kovan covet sham I am I'm not going to cry here as if right as if you could affect it right not that God forbid God does not is not changed but as if you're affecting the honor of Hashem or the honor of human beings which will see is involved with the types of sins I just wish the whole world would understand this by so those who are spiritually sensitive they get it right they know that the Torah the scripture the Tanakh is the Word of God and everything we need to know everything we need to know about life is in there that's Erasmus Rico sh about cork Oh shallow Batu vato you've ah L Jaco in Lavaca schmayman au revoir the Seurat the fact that this person now is ill or anybody that's ill it's going to force him it forces him not because of a good reason to go to see the doctor or in this case the Cohen the Cohen he's going to ask for the Cohen to be healed but it's not from a good place it's because he's forced to but why is he forced to wait till you hear this reasoning he's forced to because he should have done it to begin with who is the coming the sit-stay Cohen the words the mouth the lips of the coin he's the he teaches the law he teaches you how to behave who were the co named the sons the grandsons the progeny of aronia coin who was road they've Shalom who was only Shalom he loved people right he chased after peace he chased after peace he loved peace if he would let me just let me just stick to the words here he didn't go to the Cohen now become a good reason he went because he was forced to Ladakh Musa Haskell to know what type of character traits he needs to work on keelhaul of Mithila Meerut so no lavaca star amidst its that going if he would have originally gone out of his own free will not being forced because of this illness to request Torah from the lips of the Cohen will he yoked me Tammy Dobbs shall Erin to be amongst the students of our own oh if Sharla rotation elements it says in perky a vote ethics of our fathers chapter one verse 12 then guess what shallow lishala off Madonna in vain akka in the chute Lucia no he would never have been sent judgment amongst his people because of the the the arrows of his tongue his tongue right we talked about lush and Hara I hadn't mentioned that yet until now but russian is going to be one of those reasons for the illness or the spiritual illness of surahs' because he caused it this is what he did as law hiya Baldy dates a resume right he never would have had this Soros he never would have had the Surratt had he not used his tongue unwisely sending judgment right and arrows bullets to two other people if he would have learned properly well may I fish losses Emirates so no but after the fact he did not do it willingly meaning originally he didn't do willingly but after the fact now he's sick biota biryeo LOM he's only doing it to be well he may akshatha huva elico a malkorok oh that's why he's now being brought forcibly Lavaca schneemann Oh Derek chuhwa to learn from the Cohen how to what exactly is it that he needs to do to change his his character okay so let's continue the next paragraph possession amar now when we read the verse dose to yet tourism its aura biome toha righto this shall be the law of the Matsuura on the day of his purification he be ohm Shihab a slave tahor Bick here Bo mummy said originally there's a purification and then there's a healing so the purification is there's a renewal within his heart and a purification that's going on within him now we can see the difference why the day of his purification is cleansing Chicago all of the Shuba teshuva he actually accepted upon himself to repent ki beyond you've about coracle l Cohen but wait listen to this it's the day that he was forced to go to the Cohen that is a very shameful procedure to being forced to go to the Cohen because you'll dis skin malady nobody wants to have to do that so he's going but he's being forced to go that part of the process is part of the true of the process but it's not willingly from within him it's something coming from the outside that's forcing him and we're gonna learn that God loves us so much that that chuhwa is also part of the true of a process that's accepted even though it started off and is coming from not the highest of Madre goat not coming from the highest of levels it's coming from a lower level but it's effective it has an effect on the person why because in the end lil mummy Meno Dara Hashem he is going for the purpose of knowing what God wants from him the lush in Hoover the language of being brought ready for this it is not what you thought ænima da barber had take me Macomb la Macomb it has nothing to do with being transported physically from one place to another from point A to point B Ella but rather madaba behead take liebe min Adara Hara uh it's talking about a movement within your hearts from the evil ways I share higher bow which he had within him el Dara hatov towards a better path towards a better life Lelouch acaba all lovely at Karev elico aid now that he is going to accept upon himself to come close to the KO hain we'll have a Caterham appeal and to receive and accept the Torah that is from his lips their Mahr that's what it means iced tea at Taurus it will be the law not just the law the Torah itself it's the Torah that he's receiving from his mouth unbelievable the octorok and what happens after he accepts it she Misha kiba a lovely oak tower above moksha both Taher a nyan may roast barani he's accepting upon himself to be pure in thought and to be pure the word pure cleanse in his thoughts and cleansed or pure in his eyes mirror ice barrage from seeing that which is evil imagine most lush in Hara right we say oh but it's true it may be true that person may be worthy of some of the comments you're making about him but it's your eyes in your thoughts that are misplaced because if he is you have to have pity and rock Minuit's okay you have to justify Church should be told it says but Cedric Tisch Khatta meetha huh it says in the Torah in righteousness you should judge my people right God's people should be judged with righteousness which means we're not talking about someone who's evil okay we're talking about someone who is known to be a righteous person and you see them do something you can have to not justify you have to make up a whole story first of all you don't know all the facts you can never judge anybody until you know other facts so that's the first thing you have to tell yourself second if you know some of the facts the app that pity for whatever reason I think the the greatest example you see this Hasidic Jew on Friday night as you're coming home from synagogue run into McDonald's and he starts eating a cheeseburger or maybe he's not eating one he's taking one out he's getting into a cab his wife is pregnant and has requested it happens to be it's not the best situation but it's permissible in certain cases where a pregnant woman has such a strong desire to eat to eat cheeseburgers on Shabbos go cook it for her right it's such a case to save a life it's permissible okay in a real life a precarious situation a life-saving situation so ok talk to your local attacks rabbi about that but that's the concept so you could just you could say maybe he has a pregnant wife who is demanding of him at all costs to go get that cheeseburger for him on Friday night where the person's mentally ill right how many times you've seen situations where the person is or they have some kind of illness thing they can't help what they say right and they've been abused and they abuse others I mean there's no justification I'm not justifying bad behavior but I'm saying that they may not be evil they might be in need of help okay so instead of putting them down perhaps find a way to bring them up okay it's not to be like publicizing and say well this happened to me all over social media this person did that get over it work it out okay enough of my ranting we were going down to this point where that we've just said like this that what he needs to do what he does after this point is that he accepts upon himself these pure thoughts and this cleansing of his eyes from evil as IO Seco al hoodlum Akana and it's only then that the cone will go then towards him the he may near pan Nega and then he has healed from his affliction meaning he's healed from the what from the sin he's here the name of the affliction is the same name as the sin itself it's an allusion to the same so when he's healed from the affliction the nega a means these keeps us in Michaels we're gonna go through this idea what the nega is is the lesion the lesion is the name of the sin itself and that's what the different types of lesions actually have to do with different types of character traits that lead to sin we're not going to go into that today but that's what he says he says when he's healed from the lesion from the nega it's that sin that caused him that surahs' then the same thing it's the sin that caused it so at the end when it says remember we said there's two words negative minutes Aruba there's two words two words and there's only one word at the end so it's from the teruah it's from him himself he's healed it's not the Legion that's being healed hallelujah I just love this guy's come on give me a hallelujah he is being healed he's the one it's not the Legion Legion no Yahalom are so it cannot use the word had no gay actor ruined only has two states Aurora it's the teruah that's healed sure I've gone massive garner low because it was the sin of his actions Tech right that's what caused it meaning he himself whoo-hoo chuckling I mean it's raw it has to say from him from the afflicted person to teach you what Sheriff ooh ah enough sheet Barlow that the spiritual healing comes to him muchacha hi it's Aurora is coming because he was afflicted Kia Cerato ha Rijo Allah to Shuba because it was the affliction that caused him pushed him in the direction of doing shuva I thought peak 8 and guess what even though it was the ruah even though it was the affliction that caused him to do truth against what hashem Hakadosh barukh whom the Kaaba urato God accepts it even though we're called su bet it's sub you know it's inferior repentance that's how it started it started out of shame that he had this blemish it came out of shame that he was forced to go to the Cohen he didn't even want to go but in the end he does chuva even though it started from a inferior place alpha P Shanna said outside Africa a crack even though it all occurred in a forced way and there Karuk to shubik isaiah Timpson devar guess what the absence of this combination of chuhwa is it doesn't matter he's basically telling us that just like we saw in that beginning verse in deuteronomy chapter 31 verse 17 where god uses in terms of the curses that all those horrible things are going to come to you why do those horrible things come to the Jewish people because it's going to bring them to chuhwa even though this is north weinberg always told us the receiver of a chitara god wants unity and he's gonna bring it about no matter what okay now you could do it and bring it about without the calamity or if you don't the calamity will bring it about right during the Gulf War we're all huddling in these um you know in our these what they call those things the bomb shelters well the sudden everyone's unified right people are walking around blessing everybody you should be safe you should be safe God God Scott should the gotcha guard you and here now the same thing everyone's praying for everyone else people are praying for everybody that's how we started this class okay so the people are more concerned people are trying to do you know one of the things you but I did before the before pace off we took it upon ourselves to figure out a way instead of having our normal two hundred people for Seder we were going to find two hundred people that needed food ready-made food and Brooke Hashem many of you watching this contributed we were able to collect enough money and even more to distribute and we took care of 200 people it was it was just an idea but it was to help bring unity and you know what so many other people are doing it right look we really we've been cornered the market we didn't want a corn in the market it was just an idea and that so many other people started doing it and they're still doing it till this day there's so many people are offering the service to help the old right people who are over 65 who should leave their homes people have vulnerable immune systems people are going out of their way to figure out what they can do to help these people it's all about Hesed stop blaming everyone else stop trying to figure out these conspiracy theories why this may or may not have happened but god it's coming from god right it's it's he's trying it's a wake-up call so the question is who's going to be sensitive enough to realize on their own what it is about them right it's not about the other guy what is it about me that I need to work on myself to change the situation okay now this next paragraph in verse 4 is going to introduce an idea and we'll go through the first paragraph but I want to tell you this is the longest clear card that I ever stole my whole life it goes on for pages and pages and pages and what he does is he takes two different made regime and he compares the two there's so much depth here that you can learn how to learn a Meldrick how to think about a metric but we won't go into that tonight what we will do is just introduce the ideas and hopefully on your own at some later stage go through this so in verse 4 it says that the person who's going to become pure cleanse it takes two birds why why where the two birds have to do with anything so the clear card says la mala bap artist has Rhea earlier in the previous parsha catotti I had ridden a car had Surratt Bo Ashe Lucia of a rosary museum the parsha it's coming because of 3-prime sins the prime reason for this Sara's comes as a result of three sins that are removing the parsha that are hinted at in the parsha and they are Russian Hara gossip the Ruach and hem the summer moon what are those three things mo genera is evil speech learn about evil speech what does it mean loshon Hara and guard yourself gossiped gasuto rock is ending a bloated spirit which let's just translate it as arrogance haughtiness and send us a mound which is either greedy or miser leanness and let's say the combination of the two the love for money so I thought P I'm sorry our P said no column are so according to this were able to say what at C pariah mat supreme McCaffrey Marche Lucia that it's the three that is the the birds the two birds that are going to be brought as a sin offering is to atone for these three sins and that's where we have the beginning what about loshon Hara so loshon Hara if you go to Gomorrah and erican so you'll find that American 16 be on page two number seven Reb you hooda then lady said what is the what is different and notable about a leper that tur actually says that he is to bring two birds for his purification so the Holy One blessed be he says he acted by speaking malicious speech with an act of chatter right like a chatterbox chirping therefore the Torah says that he is to bring an offering of birds who chirp and chatter all the time okay so that is in respect to the Russian ha what about gasuto Ruach the the haughtiness the holiness the clear card brings down as oil Allah mala could see Purim I felt as Birds go up high they float up and they they fly so - that's what haughtiness is all about and what about the hemmed us how mom owned what about this love for money so that's a little bit more complicated but if you look into proverbs chapter 23 verse 4 and 5 if you meditate on this you'll see it do not worry we're yourself to grow rich so remember we're talking about hemmed us a moment the love for money it's a right this is King Solomon in his wisdom but cease from your own understanding should you blink your eyes at it in other words it's fleeting it's gone it is not here for we'll make wings for itself like the eagle and it will fly towards the heaven so these are the words that the clear car used to explain why the supreme are going to also make a pair and what's the word atone for the sin of love of money as well okay well the fear of them before she recalled my knee Tom the partial zoo Bahamian cat pollution are many of the move for shame go at great lengths to explain why the sin of Russian Hara is connected to Surratt oh you've got money so the clear card says I'm also gonna make a collection here let have trove of fantastic Torah to explain Masha Talib Matsuda sickly what has gone up into the not the crevices but the Citadel's of my intellect the Schlow shock results emit similar Alvis a new into three major proclamations that we find in the rabbi's in the writings of the sages that speak about this sin so I'm going to leave you just with these timid regime because just time doesn't allow it but I think you should become familiar with both of them one is in Midrash raba now Midrash will arrive at sixteen - and let's go through it real quickly and these are the important verses you should know this shall be the law for a leper which is what we read and this is what you can find in 3413 in Psalms 34 13 who is a man who desires life right mija ish ha ha fates hi him who's the man that desires life there's a story about a peddler the word Raheel and we call rahi lewis is spreading like a peddler lush and Hara but in turn in terms of the measures let's stick to the words there's a story of a peddler who would go around two towns over close to a place called C Puri interesting and the name of the town is based on a bird he would shout out and say who wants to buy a portion of life they would all clink to him really and I was sitting in the Terpening text in his reception room and he heard him shouting out who wants to buy who wants to buy the portion of life rabbi Yana I said come sit down here sell it to me he said back to him you do not need it like those and those like you do not need it nevertheless he made the effort to come down to come and go down to him he took out the Book of Psalms and showed him the verse the one I just told you about Psalms 34 13 who is the man who desires life but doesn't it say right after it look at it look guard your tongue from evil turn away from evil and do good become very familiar with these words and now go to proverbs 21 23 Rob John I said but also proclaimed and said he who guards his mouth and his tongue guards his soul from troubles the same word sir Sarris distress ljubljana I said it's like so amazing it's all here Reb Yanni said all my of my days I was reading this verse and I did not know how to interpret it until the peddler came and made it understood who is the man who desires a life there we say therefore Moshe warns Israel and actually tells them in our parsha this is the law for a leper and we saw the word so Russ mote sera the law of one that gives out a bad name mote see shame moti shame ray okay so that's another issue now let's go to in Tom would bobbly in avodah Zarah 19 be the Gomory relates that Rebbe alexandri would proclaim in public in the manner of a merchant selling wares who desires life who desires life everyone gathered around him to buy from him saying give us life he stated the following to them who is the man that desires life this is our verse in Psalms 34 at 13 and 14 and loves days that he may seek good in them keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking guile the Psalms continue depart from evil and do good seek peace and pursue it there who more explains less one say I have kept my tongue from evil and my lips from speaking guile I will therefore go and indulge and sleep no what do you mean like Shabbat you shouldn't do anything so long I'm not gonna break Shabbat I'll just sleep the whole day I'm afraid I'm gonna have the guile come out of my mouth so I'll just go to sleep no do action it says depart from evil and do good so it's not enough to just avoid evil but you must actively do good and what does the word good always represent there's no other leftover saw that before there is no good except for the Torah as it says in Proverbs four to five and I have given you a good portion Mike Tora do not abandon it so this is really an introduction to many things gonna be life-changing I wish everyone that they take upon themselves some whatever it is whatever is within you that you feel you need changing you don't need me you don't need to come right you need the Torah and if you're not going to get the Torah then then you will be forced to come to people like me people took only me who are going to you know what I mean I'm not saying I should be in that category but people who know better than you so hopefully you will rise to the level where you will be able to understand your own personality defects and come to to fix them go to the Torah go to the people that are teaching the Torah who honor the Torah hang out with good people and this rotted sham you'll come to some clear understanding on your own through his boat a dude threw bedewed through some kind of isolation self-isolation and come to the cure yourself first that's always the best way but if you don't you will be forced right I'm not forcing you I'm not cursing you class of shown I'm telling you what's the result the natural result is where you end up paying a lot of money to a sucker pissed okay you can get it for free go and connect to a rabbi to someone who knows Torah well and find out what it is you need to do so with that I wish everyone a kodesh Tov okay not only that a refugee a lamer and welcome home to Torah and have a great life see you next week [Music]
