Daf Hashavua - Nedarim 50a

Okay, good evening friends. Tonight we're learning an amazing gumra on the story of Rabbi and I think we've pointed out the Rabika who's the only person who knew the shun the story of him is going to be nun okay now it's interesting when it comes to the mitzvah of there's an Raka according to the standard version holds that It's mishar says it's but there are other versions that it's the other way around. Here we go. Rebaka is Barabas. Rebeeka married the daughter of Kabasa. Kabasa was a very rich person. He was called Kabasa because anyone who came in hungry like a dog entered satisfied. Ruka did kaducan to her. He was not happy. Shama heard and basically he assured him he asserted her and Han from all of his estate. Now by the way you can understand this. So she a wealthy wealthy people everybody is concerned about who marries the daughter especially wealthy people cuz who marries their daughter is who gets their money basically. So there's always suspicion. Anytime a guy marries the daughter of a wealthy guy, the father-in-law is always suspicious. Maybe he's he's he's marrying the money, right? But especially here where he's a complete amat. So he made he said, "Okay, you want to marry my daughter? You're not getting anything from me." Um he assured her to get up from all of his estate. She went and she did nuin to him in the winter. They had nothing to sleep on. They didn't even have suka beds. Now the truth is even stores don't have suka beds anymore because they're already out of them. But they didn't even have a suka bed. What they sleep on? Have a biva. They slept in a storehouse of te of straw. Have a now when she woke up in the morning she had straw in her hair. Okay. She would pick out the from her hair. He said to herav, "If I had the money, I would put on you a Jerusalem of gold. I would give you a ornament that has etched in and carved into it. That was a special ornament that wealthy women would wear. It was like a crown that had the land the land the topography the landscape of etched into it. He said if only I could provide you with that came he appeared like a person but he was calling by the door said, "Please give me a little bit of straw. My wife gave birth. She has nothing to uh lie down on say to his wife, look, we're not so poor. Here's a guy. He doesn't even have straw. As it is well known that wealth and poverty is relative. It's always relative. If you live on a poor block and you have the nicest house, you think you're an maflug. If you would live in a mansion, but the two people on both sides of you, their mansion is bigger. You think you're an AI. So this was a very easy consolation for saw someone who didn't even have >> straw. Excellent. Iris to see Elio at this stage. >> Why was Ra to see Elahu? You know what? Maybe she was to see, right? Because think about it. Why did she marry him? She married him. She gave up all the wealthy. She could have married the biggest Matsuian in Lakewood, you know, but she saw something about him that he had the potential. So she basically gave up for to to groom the future god. And you know what? She bet right. >> Right. >> She bet right. So think she gave it all up for the sake of Tyra and maybe maybe it was in her zakus. Yeah. It's an interesting question, right? May but maybe it was in hers. Think about she gave it all up and she imamish she's lying in dirt. She's lying in straw. He has to pick out the straw. And Aka said, "If I could, I would give you." So that means she deserves that at least. Okay. She said to him, "Zilav, go to attend the house of the rabbi. Go to the yeshiva." He went for 12 years before. He went for 12 years before. Okay. Sorry. Now he went to learn from Yeshua. And when the 12 years were over, he came home. He was he was coming home. He heard from behind his house that a certain wicked person said to his wife, "Your father did good." Namely, that he made a because this guy is an number one he is not comparable to you. He's not on your level. You're much more prestigious than him. And number two, number two, he left you like a living widow all these years. She said to him, "If he would have listened to me or if he would listen to me, He would go for another 12 years. So said obviously since she gives me I'm going to go back. So he went back and he learned for another 12 years. And as famously learns, he did not even stop to say, "Uh, thank you so much. How is the barit without me? How is PTA without me?" Okay. At the end of the 24 years, he came back with 24,000 pairs of as you remember in Yamis. And the for the more famous story is he came back with a total of 24,000 students. Yeah. The whole world went to greet him. She also got up to greet him. Shia. So the wicked person said, "Where are you going?" Meaning you're not dressed appropriately. You're dressed so un in unbecoming way. You're you you've been living in dial dire pro poverty. You can't go out to him that way. She said to him, "Yeah, you got the place." She said to him, A righteous person knows the soul of his animal. Meaning he'll understand. He knows the my predicament. She went to be seen. The rabbis were pushing her. Said, "No, let her be. My Tyra, your Tyra belongs to her. My Tyra and and your Tyra belongs to her. Okay. Now, Shama heard what happened. What does that mean? He heard that uh at came so and he for he felt bad about the nether that he made his daughter live in poverty. He came and he wanted to permit his nether. the he was permitted and he was freed or he was freed and he was permitted. Now we don't have any more information but we know from other places that he gave him half of his assets. So says the garamara got rich from six places from his father-in-law from a from a gazelle of a boat. What does that mean? Because every single boat had they made for it like a uh min like a replica of an ay of a gazelle. Now the reason they made this replica of a gazelle, it was considered a good omen because gazels run very fast and if they had this gazelle uh replica on their boat, it would be assim that they would move fast. Okay. But one time the sailors forgot it on the shore. Went and he found it and it sounds like he was able to keep it or they gave it to him. How else did he become rich? He also became rich. He became rich from a treasure chest. He once gave some money for sailors. He said, "Bring me something, you know, get me some merchandise." The only thing they found was a treasure chest on the seashore. And they gave the chest and they didn't think anything was in it really. They said to him, "Go take this. Go use this." And it turned out it was full of coins. Now, how is the chest full of coins? One time a boat drowned this that belonged to merchants. They put all their earnings in this chestn was found. Um it was found at that time. Another way he became real is minisa from a Roman woman. We'll have to see what that story is. Another way he became wealthy is Rufus from the wife of Rufusalam and from Shalom. Those ways of wealth we'll have to study next time. I think the schedule is going to be we'll do that Wednesday night. Okay. But let's see the run on this page. Okay, you got it. The first runa. No, we did that. Minmazio, he would the second line in the run. He would pick up straw minaz from his from her hair. She He would pick straw from her hair. I would give you a Jerusalem of gold, an ornament of gold that is engraved in. And he made this for her like the shabas talks about. Do you ever learn and it talks about what learned about it in? Okay, good. Um to console them. So this Russia said he's not on your level. cuz like we know where are you going? The Russia said he knows this was distressed because of him. Who is because of her? She's the one who gave me the advice meal leav you know it's interesting the ran doesn't say that you know she I guess it's not just she gave him the she also let him stay there for 24 years but like the focus is on the the itself of [Music] every mo boat they made an image of a heart out of wood as a divination that the boat would move fast and they would fill it with dinar of from a chest. A chest that's made to hide in it. One time and his students needed money. So what did they do? They went to a certain noble woman. She said to him, I'm going to lend you the money be the borrower and God and the sea will be the guarantors. They he said a time he was going to pay when time came wasn't able to pay. So she went to the seashore. She said he's not able to pay up the debt. You see to it that you're the miraculously the daughter of the Caesar became insane. She took a chest full of precious stones. She threw it into the sea and the sea sent it to the place where this maid servant where this excuse me noble woman was sitting by the seashore. So she got paid up. She took the chest and she went with it. Shortly after was healed. She came back. He came back to the noble woman and he came ready to pay. She said, "No, I already collected from the guarantor who already paid the whole debt and I'm giving money to you. I'm giving you what the yam paid in excess of the debt. From that extra money that she returned to him became wealthy from that extra money that she returned to him became wealthy. Okay. So that's dun. We'll see the other two ways that Rabi became wealthy next time and hopefully we'll do that Wednesday night. Okay, everyone. >> Recording stopped.
