this Tower class is brought to you by torahanytime.com okay good afternoon everyone kindly take your seat we're going to be in the Marisa Makayla in approximately 10 minutes Sarah yet all that's filos should be in Escondido the debate of this trip is graciously sponsored by repsal and Roz Orbach in honor of raza's Father's 10th yard side Shalom Ben Street who was a holocaust Survivor who who was imprisoned by the Nazis worked for the Israeli underground stealing small valuable items from the houses they're emptying under the watch of the Nazi guards gold and diamonds that were stoned were used to buy weapons for the Jewish Fighters the first time this holy Jew went to the hotel he put a pet Tech in the wall thanking Hashem for all the good he had it in his life for this whole family we want to thank sell for all the hard work he did over the last couple of weeks putting the Sunday trip together putting the Tuesday trip together dealing with all of you dealing with me and that's the hardest part we'll cut that part out and thank you very much for all your efforts this was initiative we started at five years ago and about Hashem it's really blossomed then Ken Diego for many happy and healthy years so we're headed to the city of Chevron it's a shame that the we couldn't get on camera the bus being hit by the Rocks but that's what the Torah says so they're doing their job but we find in the end of parishes that they have in the Phila in the end of days and the balaturam says so when you see our cousins flourishing and it's the end of the candle you know the candle when it's about to go out it starts to Flicker and then it's extinguished so when you see the flicker of the candle you know they're about to fulfill the great nabua of the outcome the only one of the others we can go to regularly is Yitzhak because Yitzhak represents yet let's speak a little bit about the importance of the Madison meets rankel for the very first time he cries Rashi says why did Raquel cry why did yaakov cry says that he would not be zoja to be buried with Raquel imeno and that's pretty unusual this is the first encounter between yaakov avinu and raka they're not married yet they're not even engaged yet don't you think yaakov's getting a little bit ahead of himself they haven't even stood under the khopen yaakov's already worried that he's not going to be buried with her I mean that's the last thing one would think you would think about but no the first thing yaakov thinks about upon meeting Rachel is the unfortunate occurrence that he would not be buried next to rakalimenu another interesting thing we encounter is the subject of the purchase of the marasana phela where it occupies where amravino purchases it from Ephraim for uh exorbitant price why is this such an important business this is the longest recorded business transaction in the whole Tanakh why is this such an important purpose and why is the source of marriage you know if you look at masekhta kadushan wants to know how do you know you marry a woman with cancer says so in other words what is the source of marriage burial wow how beautiful an idea the root of all marriage is being six feet under you want to know where marriage comes from it comes from the grave that's such a beautiful thing wow that will really inspire young men and women to want to get married when they study that we learn the sound from today ephrine why is kadushin learned out from kevura and the answer is very important the relationship between Israel between husband and wife is a machine so the relationship between we have an idea that one of the great we shine of gershime is called Rabino gershine the light of the Exile why is called the light of the exile because saved the Jewish people he made two takanois one takana he made was that a husband cannot divorce a life against her will what that did was once a husband cannot divorce his wife against her will hakadoshboro who can never get rid of the Jewish people against our will so maybe Hashem will say okay I can't get rid of the Jewish people but maybe I'll take another Nation I'll marry another woman so it'll be the Jews and the North Koreans or the Jews in another nation made another takana that you can't marry two wives so now not only can't Hashem divorce US he can't take another Nation secured the Jewish people but here's the thing the marriage of avraham and Sarah and yes represent the Eternal bond between knesses history and if avraham and Sarah are together not only because but if they're buried together then claudi Israel and akadashbarak who will be together forever so there's no more beautiful concept than to learn out condition from kavura because what that means is the marriage between husband and wife is not a temporal Arrangement it's not only because that represents Baruch whose Eternal relationship with the Jewish people now Hashem has two connections to Kali Israel he's connected to us in The Gallows the hastara Hashem is connected to us at all times no matter what and then there was the time that coach brojo was connected to us when the basal Victor stood the galaya in revealed terms an open miracle in giloi Panem in gilo ishrina now throughout Jewish history only one of these two relationships always existed namely is always together with the Jewish people is a cave within a cave Hester that represents that throughout the Gallows is always connected to claw Israel however Hashem was not together with us in a revealed manner throughout our history only 410 years during the body's reshine and 420 years during bioshani Leia is hakadoshboro whose relationship with knesses Israel the Hester Rachel is relationship with Kali Israel the Goliath if Rockell would have been buried with yaakovino we would have built the base hamiktas and it never would have been destroyed because that would have meant that Hashem would be connected to cloudy soil the goloyment foreign he will not always be with us the goloy and the fact that raheli mainu is buried elsewhere represents we are not together with Hashem the golo upon him for all times it's above the ground it's open you could spot it from a mile away but the farm of the maras is that reflects that Hashem is with us only at certain times so the concept of marriage is it's a martial between knesses Sonic they're two different modes that's why we have two types of chickens is for The Gallows is for the um is just for shaman so we should be zoika we go to Marissa marpela and that reflects hashem's unbreakable bond with cloudy soil but the sadness so to speak of kaverakal is that we are not hashem's open Revelation throughout our history but once again we hope our color sprock will be makayam thenu no um video
