Pesach: The Mystery of the Missing Child of the Seder

this store class is brought to you by Tora anytime.com there's once a rabbi who's trying to connect and relate better to his kahila and he decided that what he needed to do is he really needed to spend more time together with the people and he made up to go on a hunting outing with one of his congregants so they go out to the forest and they're looking for a good catch and all of a sudden a deer runs by they both pick up their guns they shoot bam the deer is dead now the Shayla is who killed the deer whose bullet was it was it the rabbi or was it the congregant so they bring the animal to the forensic specialist he takes one look at the animal and he says unequivocally it was the rabbi the rabbi killed the animal how do you know he sounds obvious the specialist said just look at the Bullet Hole it went straight in one ear and right out the other as we begin our voyages we begin with the recognition that everybody has a different taste and a different preference what are the ingredients of a good Russia what makes a good Shabbos some people they like stories someone here someone here purple and others are looking just to hear a good joke while we Endeavor to satisfy everybody's needs ultimately the goal of the drasha is to say words that are not only enjoyed and not only appreciated but to say words that will be listened to listening however is not a simple skull listening is more than just the sound waves hitting the eardrum of the listener listening means more than that listening means understanding listening means being a Mikado tells us had a very successful career in Bothell and it was time to go up to Earth's Israel and he was very apprehensive with his words be listened to would they be accepted and therefore he offer the following Twila did I say something that will be accepted likewise as we begin the Shabbos we stand here with great trepidation that we impart words that will be accepted and internalized many mepharsham most notably The Village they've pointed out that the number four plays a very prominent role in the say that of course you have the four questions you have the Arab on him you have the four cups of wine and you have the Dallas seemingly there are four fours for kashas four children four Kai size four Le shiners but there seems to be this mysterious undertone that all these for us have in common something I would like to bring to your attention but first I would like to note that in fact there there's another for the night of the Satan but it's a four that is commonly overlooked but it's actually critical to the hagada and that is the four silk and parishes and expounds upon at Great length in paragraph number one number two vayaurus number three and number four value is and if this observation is correct then there are not four fours but five fourths but there's a very mysterious undertone that all of these fours have if you look at the ancient garciais of the gamara there's a line that baffled all the reshine him it reads on the fifth cup foreign the fifth cup we all know they're only four cups of iron mishna says explicitly we need to supply the Ani without me the whole chocolate revolves around the assumption that there are only four cups of wine how do we understand with terrifying that there's a fifth cup of wine they take care of this problem by saying garcinan Ravi goimer olives says she says no problem scratch it it doesn't say a fifth Choice it's a printer's error they're only four cups of wine it's forbidden to drink a fifth the statement the rough terrified it's a misprint and it must be amended accordingly comes the rambam the rambam says not so fast don't erase the text says there is a fifth cup of wine the yes four cups of wine Noah says around them there's a fifth case but the fifth case is different this fifth case is not obligatory it's Russia's it's discretionary there's another view on the reshinen the view of the Ravid and the sagas on the roof now the view of Iran that the fifth case is much more than Russia's it's a mitzvah it's a good thing to do but not an absolute obligation so we have this controversy over the fifth cup of wine Rashi rashbam don't drink it you can write it you should it's a Mitzvah what do we do La Mesa solution is very simple we try to respect all the opinions we pour a fifth cup out of respect to the rambam and arrived it but we don't drink it in deference to Rashi and the rashbam that is why it is suggested that the cup is called shalolia because when Elio comes he will resolve all matters of uncertainty when the Gomorrah has a dilemma without a definitive conclusion the gemara will often end off question will stand also stands for tissue will resolve all the questions all the controversy and this may be the history behind the case of elio it's the fifth cup mentioned in the Gomorrah that we have this uncertainty about question is how can you have a fifth cup doesn't think you shot me saying the reason for the dalit coincidence is it corresponds to the dollar how then could with terrifying maintain that there are five cups of wine if they're only four expressions of Gola but the amazing thing is are there really only four Le chantis of gula foreign another missing fifth a mysterious fifth Christ we have and a mysterious unincluded fifth washing here's another missing fifth the parish where we read the Declaration made by somebody who brings their fruit upstairs but you know what if you look up the sukim there's another Posse that seems to be omitted foreign and yet we're not going there the whole Parsha we omit the fifth posic what's going on over here it's another missing fifth a third missing fifth what about the fear cautious well there it's even more blatant the very same Islam which is the mission there actually has a different question that we no longer ask the mishna says is the third question is every other night we eat cooked baked roasted hello in fact this text could be still be found in the early manuscripts of the hagada discovered in the Cairo ganesa this was the question that was asked stood and one of the foods I have to say there was a current PESA which was roasted but after today something this was destroyed we no longer eat the carbon PESA this question was dropped and another about hasebo was substituted even says that our version of the hagoda is not the original version of the Haggadah the random says our version so in a way it's not four fours it's four fives and five kashas it's not four fours it's four five and you know what the missing fifth is in all these cases you know what they all have in common the missing fifth represents the final level of redemption that we're yearning for celebrate that fifth case of the ghoulash Lima we're not we're not there yet to emphasize the fifth expression of us still angolos he's still in golas there's a missing fifth pasok they have ACS there's a fifth question we're yearning to ask about the carbon PESA to ask that question so the fifth the missing Fifth and East each case all has something in common it's something we hope for we yearn for a madrigo or not yet there what about the arabana is there a fifth child are there not four fives but five five one of the admiring of the 20th century suggested that there's a fifth child on pesach as well you know the fifth child is child is not there the child who saw acculturated and assimilated he didn't show up to the say there the child who seems to be gone plastic says only one fifths of the name is four fifths Paris during Croatia then was not as much a Maka for the midterm as it was a cover-up cover-up for the yiddin so that we shouldn't be embarrassed that forfeits of our people didn't really believe in the Redemption the lost son is the fifth sun and how do we allude to him with silence fifth child is the one that's not there what could I tell you I am humbly inclined to disagree with this approach that the missing son is the son who's not there because then this fifth does not parallel the other fifths the other fifths are the highest level the highest madrego of gula which have not yet been attained entering Earth Israel quite a contrast to the fifth son who's so far gone and so estranged he doesn't even come to a say there and therefore with this question we begin on our adventure of the Shabbos who then is this mysterious fifth child who is the missing child that has been omitted from the dollar we all know the night of the Savior evokes warm memories in everyone's heart even the most estranged Jew celebrates pesach even a yid who may not know shamaya yes [Applause] even a Jew like that may even know the manastano and therefore we need to ask that question what is so significant about the night of say there that everyone feels the connection their number of other perplexing items about to say there and a number of other difficulties that I would like to bring to your attention first of all the night of the sedan the one thing we pride ourselves in is that everything has an order after all it's called the Seder we don't do anything haphazardly everything has a specific order in fact like no other time during the year we have Simon and where we recite the order of operations kadish carpas yahas you know we don't do that any other time of the year we don't start off sukis okay filter fish matzo balls the night is stay there say there order we have to recite the order this is there are not just appeared it's written by rushonim either by Rashi one of the baliatosis let's examine for a moment the order of the Seder for the very beginning Kadesh literally sanctify yourself cleanse yourself wash yourself you call that order that's the exact opposite of a normal order first he clean something then you polish it first you wash something then you paint it first you wash something then you shine it doesn't sayif in first you wash yourself then you anoint yourself first you clean yourself then you do Mitzvah SASE first you avoid sin then you do positive Commandments and the night of the say there the one night a year that we pride ourselves that everything is in order it's Haywire it's the opposite order it's a promisedabra we do things out of order this is the question the Sami small brings down and it's how God know the name of his illustrious father the abnenezer isn't it curious that whenever we have a specific Mitzvah to do we always do the mitza during the day chauffeur is only during the day Lulu love is only during the day Hollow is only during the day Bismillah is only during the day fill in Talus yes you could do it at night awesome but to have him it's so that you only do at night yet you come to the midst of pesach foreign specifically designated for the night another major problem is with probably the most well-known phrase in the hagada and very possibly the most well-known phrase in all of Judaism and that is if you know anything about Hebrew Hebrew grammar you don't have to be a great grammarian you don't have to be an expert in Hebrew language to understand that there seems to be a major error with this expression the word Lila is it ends in kamate is there further later on in the hagada maisa privilege volume is why do we use another problem the rambam writes um says the rambam in order to keep the kids up in order to keep the kids interested you need to do things a little bit differently the night of the Seder than any other Knight Frank it says you give out sweets you give out nuts nuts let's give that nuts have to say there foreign and we come to the arabanim we encounter the good old Russia and what's the Russia doing at the sedan doesn't the mission say in other words yeah I'll be friends with Russia you're not associated with the Russia since when do we bring the Russia into our homes [Music] the main theme of tehilam is run away from the Russia keep away from the Russia starts off to him but yes to the year we run away from the Russia tonight at PESA we take the Russia we put them at our table and then we come to Tara all of a sudden the night of pesach we talk about Tara what do we ever mention Tara in connection to anything we only consider three people our forefathers avraham yes we don't acknowledge Him tarak's not part of the ancestry you have somebody in shadook and they have a relative that they're embarrassed of so they talk about this Veda and the altazeda and they know how to cover up the one person who they're scared of they throw them under the rug he's a skeleton all of a sudden the night of pesach we drum up Tara we pull them out of the closet why are we pulling Tarak out from under the rug and finally you know the carbon pesach is the only carbon yard it's the only carbon brought by an individual that even if the if the majority of Collies are a tummy they could still bring the carbon batoma the only carbonage that you could be macro if the Royal Sea were coming and more than that is the only carbon that you're allowed to sacrifice it's the only carbon that you could eat if you're tummy you could eat in a state of Tama why is that why is the current pass off the only carbon that can be offered that can be eaten butoma these are a number of questions that we need to deal with they'll say that [Applause] we have seven questions but the good news is there's only one answer and the answer is there is a challenge in life and there's no Jew and there's no one does not face this Challenge in a very significant way and challenge is that even though at times person may be inspired may be motivated to elevate ourselves but on the other hand often we feel way down by a various I mean we may have done in our past I have arrows we may still be involved in person could feel dirty to be sullied by yet Sahara's by tivus and in many areas in life person consciously or subconsciously we've thrown in the towel we've been miaish we've given up hope many people may have gotten caught up even in very private yet Saharas and a person sometimes feels ashamed or unworthy and the person might think you know I'll never be able to be surma I'll never be able to stop doing some of the average so why bother how could I come to be asleep why even bother with mitzvahs people may feel having dive in properly in years Having learned seriously every day since my Yeshiva days everybody in some way feels bogged down way down by past mistakes it's very hard to turn the page sometimes it's very hard to take the next step with so much baggage people could have personal issues that weigh them down throw in the towel they say you know I'll never get a good job never have Shalom bias never have Knockouts from children never get along with my family never be happy how am I going to get out of the mess life sometimes seems very bleak and really how could a person be interested in this place coming closer to Hashem with so many things in life seem so dark like the darkness of night let's think for a moment Jewish people are wallowing languishing a matrium they had a low morale they've been enslaved for Generations that a slave mentality spiritually they fall into the lowest possible level we're on the Memphis and the Messiah is that had we been there for a moment longer we would have fallen to the nuncharitama the point of no return and the moisture albino comes to me Israel with the message from the God almighty that they have been selected to become the chosen people for the most majestic mission in the history of mankind to mikhabilator how are the Jews going to muster the morale necessary to Rise Up from the depths of Despair and fulfill this Monumental mission their idolaters they were arrowing the area they were naked and bearer of any midsize they're just going to elevate themselves to receive the Torah from the Manchester that was like going over to a drug addict they'll be going over to somebody who has all kinds of dependencies they say look just wash yourself off in 49 days we're taking you to punovich we're gonna groom you you're going to be the god of hadorn 49 days people are only coming to you for broadcast yeah look at you like you're from outer space me the girl and here's Revenge them comes to call Israel from mem teshari Tomah to be the anonym what about the surma what about the others what about the Thai voice the answer is that at that moment in history Hashem tells vinay Israel Kadesh just jump into it don't think about your past don't think about your avoid the Sorrows don't think about you hate saharos don't think about your tivas forget them from the lowest to the low don't be scared don't be haunted Don't Be Afraid jump kaddish jump into the caducea you'll worry about the orcas later you worry about washing yourself off later the rest of the year it's a different order the rest of the year quoted by his son the Shameless the night of pesach has a different say there by the night of pesach the order is first Kadesh and then orcas the night of pesach Hashem gives us the ability to jump out of absolute Darkness during the rest of the year we perform Mitchells during the day a time of clarity time of Purity after we remove the darkness we've cleared away the baggage we've cleaned up the khatam the light is shining the sun is at when we're clean when we're pure that's when we do midsize because it's sore may ride only then we ask a toy but the night of the sea there there's a different order with all the baggage with all the time with all the skeletons it doesn't scare us it doesn't weigh us down it doesn't haunt us because we just jump into it night of pesach is different than any other night it says the night of pizza is light up like the day the night of peace are able to see that glimmer of light even in complete darkness even in Memphis surrounded by khatoyan surrounded by shortcomings we're not afraid we're not haunted we give our guys we're not afraid of it on Rosh Hashanah we're terrified as a time of era but the night of pesach it's a different order first Kadesh we just jump into it we're not afraid of hate We're Not Afraid Of Night we're not afraid of egoism the night of pesach Isla because we see the glimmer of light and the mountain the rest of the year Tara hide him in the closet we're afraid of tarach we put him under the rug but we could overcome anything we talk about our lowly past how our ancestors were eye to worshipers and even socadius were able to jump into kadusha we're not afraid of night we're not afraid of hate We're Not Afraid about ghosts and we're not afraid of my zikim We're Not Afraid Of Terror and we're not afraid of the Russia the night of pesach the Russia has a chance the night of peace like we say to the Russia kaddish you could do it just jump into it don't look behind Don't Look Behind it's the actual caravanu amokoim forget anything before it's the acts of carvana don't worry about your past [Applause] it's an amazing thing remember how at the end of years looks live you wanted to give the broadcast to asov what day of the year did yasuk want to give Ace of the brachis Rashi says who could eat even one golden you're succeeding Two Goats now she says Ace of comes back with a meal found out yaakov stole the blessings he says Tata you have anything left for me and what does this let's say sorry kid Michael I ate everything what do you mean he ate everything when he ate everything isn't there always room for dessert to have a stickle chocolate cream pie a little Jello some compote and give it Ace of a little Bronco what do you mean says what's the type of mirma foreign can't eat anymore I ate everything I'm halachically allowed to eat because once I've eaten the passage anymore your brother used trickery but the trickery was the of giving him the Gematria of the mirma African says what do you expect from a little Yiddish a kid where do you think the minnow comes from of course we're gonna sell the optical why of all times do you think yitzluck wanted to give Ace of the brothers I heard a beautiful thought from reviews the answer is yes was no fool he knew ASA was a Russia but the night of pesach the night we're even in complete darkness even in we see the glimmer of light we do midsize the night we're not afraid of hate we're not afraid of azikim we're not afraid of Tara we're not afraid of the Russia Youth Soccer knows the night of to say there's the one night a year that Ace of has a Fighting Chance the night of the Sailor we could say even to asab jump into kadusha and what do we do to the rush of the night of pesach in up in what does it mean you're not getting his teeth says what kind of Kira approaches Camacho of Russia raised 200 Shin 300 in 70 570. 366 what's 570 minus 366 204 Sonic the knight of pesach we transform the Russia and our savior and we say Cottage you could do it the rest of the year it's too daunting how you gonna jump then I have to say there forget the soremeira Kade should worry about Orchards later the night of stay there even ASAP has a chance take the Russia we make a metallic I believe then according to this we've now discovered the missing fitzland interestingly when we knock out the teeth of the Russia we make him into assadic but Sonic's not one of the four Bonham come in the McPherson mask why do we call the opposite of Russia is the opposite of I don't know Tom any of the Alicia the answer is I think we finally solved the mystery of the missing child you know who the fifth child is not Loyola Elena the child who's too far gone the fifth child he's the sadik he's not one of the Arbella where did he go where is he where is it sadik he didn't go anywhere we're not there yet we don't have children who are at sadikem a smart kid you can have a kid who's involved with his Yeti Sahara dick a child is attack we yearn for that we hope for that we hope to elevate all of our dollar into this attic the Tom even the Russia Russia the missing Sadiq that Sadiq were all hoping for we're all yearning for that we hope each and every one of our children become and if we are correct there are not four fives the night of the sedan they're five fives in each case the fifth one is the one we're striving for the one we're yearning for the one we hope and pray for we yearn for that cup of gaula we yearn for vegetation we yearn to ask that question about the current Passage and it is our most fervent desire that all of our children turn into that fifth Sun that we're all hoping for and then may we interpret in a rather novel way many fives we left mitraim with the potential to reach many fives the fifth language of goola we yearn for the fifth question what about the buzzword sleet tonight the kai shalal Yahoo and we left natsriim with the ability and the potential to elevate and transform all of our Kindle all of our children until it's Sadiq that we are hoping for We're Not Afraid of Anything we're not afraid of hate we're not afraid of Memphis We're Not Afraid Of Night we're not afraid of Tara we're not afraid of the Russia we're not afraid of Asaf most importantly we should not be afraid of ourselves it's a time that we say worry about the Orchards later Kadesh just jump into kadusha it's a Time to Say all the baggage all my past forget about it just jump in jump into more learning coming to Shirin coming to minion early davening because me how with every you could just jump into it sneas all the things that we work on all the things we struggle with there's one night a week we say forget the past just jump into condition that is why the current pen sucks the only carbon yaka that can be brought but Tomah it's the only carbon period that could be eaten in the state of Toma because pesach is the time of Kadesh when we jump into kadusha from the tumor itself that's what the word means to jump foreign tically what does it mean God jumped over the door normally Hashem says I want you to come close to me I want to come close to you but you always have to take the first step says how I yearn for you to come close to me but I just want you to open up your heart the size of a needle you always have to take the first step says not the Knight of PESA the night of pizza Hashem jumped over the door Hashem says I want you to come close to me so badly I don't even need you to take the first step Hashem skip the first step the door is open what's the symbolism the significance of opening the door then I didn't say that says beautifully whatever Hashem commands us to do riban sham does the symbolism of opening up the doors to indicate the night of the Seder the doors are open maybe we could say anyone who yearns anyone who wants could come and be Nena Museum even for an Aesop even for a Russia and maybe that's why the unaffiliated Jew as far gone as they may be done educated Jew deep down they feel it's the one night a year that they could connect the night of the say that is for everybody the night of the say there is especially for us we all have some of the arabanim inside of us we all have a little little Russia a little tongue little Alicia and it's an opportunity even for that that can we say even for that little rush on side of us Kadesh to jump into kadusha sometimes in life we fall into a rut we're looking for a met for a message from shamayam to help us out of the darkness the message is well say that just jump into it may the revolution give associated Aaliyah let's take advantage to elevate ourselves to dedicate ourselves will be built on pesach which results you've just experienced another Torah class brought to you by torahanytime.com
