Parshas Shemini: Always Open Positive - The Amazing Insight of the Chida

okay good morning everyone today I want to share with you two from I have very exciting news the is uh being completed if anybody would like to be with that sa in it lists the four animals that are only have one Simmon and are not ker it says only this you should not eat from those that Che C from those who have split hes the camel it choose its C but its hes are not split so the K asks that the order of why the T list that you can't eat a camel it's sort of uh out of order or somewhat in congruous because it's trying to explain why can't you eat a camel so it should say you can't eat a caml because the fact that it choose its cud is not the reason you can't eat it so it should be maybe a later thought a secondary thought but why if it's trying to explain the animals and list the animals you're not allowed to eat why would it begin by saying the camel choose its cut so in years past we saw the kakar has an amazing approach kakar says that the fact that a camel choose its cut makes it more T it's not a Simmon of tahara makes it more T because it's hypocrisy if you're going to be bad be bad you know but don't make believe you're good that's worse making believe you're good is worse than uh being bad but I would like to share with you an amazing approach from this is found in the saer the I don't think I ever used it before it's the saer are the of the and in in his forab um amazingly the uh this test 1799 wasn't so long ago it was only 225 years ago 1799 says like this there's a there's an inion of P what does mean when you start you're supposed to start with something positive I'll give you an example there's a the gar says that Rua does follow because thear says if you have a white spot before a white hair first you have a white spot then a white hair you're t and if the white hair comes before the white spot you're tahar saf is T Rua says saf is why so asks what's the reasoning of the r who say you're what about so says well here we're talking about where you have it's talking about you had a different Nega you had a or a and you were because of it and before you became T from that now there's a suff so there's a so asks but it says so doesn't mean that only over here first if you're mic so says we learn out from there the question is what do the r say the r say t so why don't we learn out from the so the RV says the would say the reason why the Torah says first is you always want to start with some something positive says based on this principle we could explain the in excuse me it [Music] says why would it first say the Simmon of tar aren't we trying to explain the reason why it's t it's t because it doesn't have split hooves or by aaz it says it has split hoves that's a Simon of Tara why does it do that says PES Our obligation is always to first start with whatever redeeming positive qualities there are so in other words even if you have a pig you have a camel or you have a really rotten guy and we have to explain why we need to stay away from the Kaz why we have to stay away from the gal or we have to stay away even from PL nevertheless there's a general principle you always start with the Positive so even if it's a gum it's going to say well it's choose its Cod even if it's a it's going to say that it has split hubs or byas it will always say and the says you can't learn out from there is this is how the in the sa these are theas of the actually in the opening of the SA it gives you copies of the what the's handwriting looked like where the enumerates the different Jas that he has and he had a total of 148 different D okay that's first offering for today recording stop
