okay good of shabas everyone welcome back here's our next clip we have the p in this week's par what does the almighty ask of you and that David was M that each day one should make a 100 blessings David saw that 100 of his soldiers were passing away daily and to protect them he enacted that one should make 100 blessings a day so I'll tell you story about RAB ysf on one particular chabas in the afternoon uh rabad got up from his learning he came to the refrigerator and he took out a number of fruits and they heard rabad saying 87 now I'm up to 88 so at first they didn't realize what he was talking about but then they realized R had a precise count of what bra he was up to and uh so he was making a on to be able toim 100 now the in the they bring from y that said as follows that the of is before the meal Friday night he would be what would he make a on on a lemon so he would take out a lemon and he would scratch it and he would make the then he would make a then he would make a then he would learn after the meal after he learned he would again make the braa on the lemon he would the on he would make the and then he would do it again in the morning before the meal and he'll do it again before so that's going to get you another 12 now a lemon is not hard to get um you could get not sure by the way I want to share with you something amazing on this that that we cited that let's make a simple we know there are 19 in we say it three times a day that's 57 you have until you have and so the 20 so between you start off with 77 57 from 20 from now there's a difference between as and and that's as follows you have seven every day and say that's eight so 77 that takes us up to then you have and that's 87 then Talis and tan that's 90 that's 90 that's another three is 90 I always say that if you count as three because some count three that's 91 a main is G 91 cuz they're a minimum of uh uh bra in any event that's 91 if you eat a meal and you wash you you have you have four in you do that twice you're ready over 100 but what do you do on chabas what do you do on chabas on chabas so as we met mentioned you can make a you make so you ready for this Dr that R said does anybody know how much money is a braa worth anybody know so what do you mean how much bra money is a brth a blessing is a spiritual recitation it's not worth the money but you know the gamar says what if you're in middle of fulfilling the Mitzvah of and somebody comes and steals your you have he has to pay you how much does he have to pay the gamar says 10 gold coins that means even though it's a spiritual matter it has value it it's worth 10 Z so how much are 100 BR a day worth they're worth a thousand Zim says that's a reference to the May that are worth a thousand Z now let's come back to shabas because on shabas you have four each one of seven braas is 28 on KES you have two more bra that's 30 and in the morning morning KES is another that's 31 and the is another 18 on chabas you're missing instead of 57 you have 46 48 49 you're missing 20 bra say that's what it means during the week you have a thousand gold coins on you're missing 200 on chabas you're missing 20 that's worth 200 the 200 how you going to be you got to eat more fruits on shabas to get the extra 200 Z and what if you can't afford the fruits so the pasta continues if you can't buy the fruits then come to the come to the listen to the and you be with them so this is the of the on a regular day your BR are worth a thousand Z on you're missing 200 you're missing 200 how do you get it by eating extra fruits and if you can't do that make sure you go to and listen carefully to the recitation of the before the alyah after the Aliyah and by doing so you will be able to be but it's an amazing thing that rabf who had Kula on his head and he had all of Cl on his shoulders had a precise count of what he was up to um every day okay we're going to begin uh p in 30 seconds
