everything sent to your phone when there's a Shear you get the link how to join how to connect right away so you could go to the site and you want to subscribe to the email you want to join the WhatsApp groups okay the first share today connecting so he say how in the world are we going to connect to man well look no further than the first of the the says s in theom um the he brings on page that the words can you imagine in the first par in the first you already have a rem l so the parach begins already with the toes even in in the saer from he adds that it's a remes that the month of each Jew should evaluate and weigh and judge their action before so look no further than the very first for a [Applause] to then you have the writes that we always read in the beginning of and because is the beginning of the man of Chua and the main principle is the Bal Chua needs to appoint and by all of their Gates all of one's senses by the way are Gates that make them open to serve Hashem the eyes are gateways the ears are gateways the nose is a gateway the mouth is a gateway all of these entrance points you have to have security because if you don't have a wall at the border then migrants are going to come in and they're going to take over your country you know so you don't want you need to have walls at the border so so too you need to have walls at your borders your borders are your openings are your eyes your nose your mouth you have to have guards there you can't just look at everything you can't just listen to everything you can't just uh say everything there needs to be guards there and as a way to ensure that you don't slip up you should appoint police officers what does it mean police officers don't defund the police no you need to refund the police means like this let's say a person is working on lanara and they have a hard time every time there's a meal they start talking and they end up bad mouthing someone so then this is what you're going to do you say at this meal I'm not going to speak lanara any word of lashar I speak I'm going to take a dollar bill and I'm going to go like this I'm going to rip it up say why would you do that you'll give it to to give it to it's not going to do anything thear says speak and then give it to he'll convince you it's a Mitzvah to speak lashar so you could support theak no the way the B say is penalize yourself that if you're working on something as an incentive not to do it you'll take a dollar and if that's not enough take $5 and rip it up or you want to make sure you don't stray after your eyes you need to have and so the writes the reason why we read this par the beginning of el el is the month of chuva and an important uh aspect of chuva is to make sure that our gateways our P our openings are guarded they're they're judges it's being accounted for and they're policemen they're that's what the the writes there should be and that that if you look at something wrong or you say something wrong except upon yourself he says to give it to like the the say don't do that it's not going to work rip it up okay now here's a really good one and I'm going to develop it in a separate share soon but you know it's very interesting that the rash the shame associated with the month of el comes from the the of this look where I am and I'm going to develop this more another sh soon are the that is associated with the month of therefore since El is alluded to in the P that speaks about Saka Saka is very important during the month of and as we're going to see perhaps that is why the par we read in speak at length about the Mitzvah of Saka now here's an interesting one we have in this week's para the Mitzvah of ML and I think that it's very relevant that we read about the AR mikl in the month of el and the reason why it's very relevant that we read about the AR mikl in the month of is because El is nothing short than in inl El is a City of Refuge one of the of course is this is the famous remes of the the whole the the source of the remes one of the classic where it's a in order right the we started with in the first of the par is not in order but this is one of the classic and that's in the speaking about the subject of and El in a sense is the City of Refuge when the whole year we may have done things that are wrong and we need protection we need to run away we run to the month of el we know that more than any other month there are more to than any other month in the T you're not going to find niss you know going to find tamas but El is the most eluded to month of all the months why are there so many ra one of the reasons is we once said this over from ra shapo is that was like anot and just like the a mlot it had to have signs wherever you went the a mlot had to have signs everywhere so too there has to be signs for El wherever you go there signs you could be daving shakas that's one of the classic ones it sounds right that's one of the classic ones anyway that's one of the reasons why we speak about l in the month of um we speak about the mikl in the month of Al Another remas I need to add to the sheet is the P that says that literally based on testimony of two witnesses or three Witnesses the person will die he will not die based on the testimony of one witness so simply that means that when two or three Witnesses testify you could kill someone but if only one witness testifies they can kill someone but it's brought in the safe and elsewhere that this is a Remis to the following very important very important teaching we know that the Yi says and it's they asked what should be the fate of someone who who does a sin and says the person should be killed they asked n prophecy what should be the fate of someone who sins and prophecy said the person should be pursued and prosecuted they asked the tah what should be the fate of someone who sins the tah said let him bring a carbon they ask God what should be the fate of son sins and said he should do chuva so the PK is saying based on the testimony of two witnesses the two witnesses are and The Sinner will die even based on the testimony of the third witness the third witness is Tyra the person will die but he will not die based on the position of the one and only himself and that's mentioned in because we read during the month of T Raa Wolfson writes on this week's para my friend River answer France show this to me we read in the beginning of because we left without any and we enter now we have now the month of el is kedi is from like brings of course will be therefore is like the brings us the tidings is the that good times are coming and those good times are and Tish is connected in any event is like the that the good month of TSH is coming in we say the following is who comes from which is so what we read in this week's about the of is appropriate for because is the month of and Sh is the sh ofi okay so this is our first offering for today record
