Okay, everyone. Aar
actually this is a very important shar
[snorts] because for those who have been
following the series,
this is our final concluding shar
uncovering the connection between
and
let's see if we could pull up the
maramak.
Now obviously voa begins with the braha
of moeno that he gave before his petira.
What is the end? What is the conclusion
of parasu?
How does hazinu
uh conclude?
Let's see. Oh, I got the marus up. How
does hazinu conclude? Well, hashem tells
like this at the end of
says go up to
ome and die there. So, hashem is giving
instructions to go up to aim and die.
Actually, a question I've had for many
years is how do you command someone to
die? You could command someone to eat
suda sashan after the shir go and eat
suda sashan rabba. Okay. So you could go
and eat sudas. But what exactly was the
the hashem gave go die.
You know what does that mean exactly?
But in any event the end of mo go up to
mountain and die. Andu says okay.
Rashi says
not now then when so the the position is
very simple. Hashem is commanding
the clock your clock is ticking. You're
going to go up to the mountain and
you're going to die. So understands this
is his last opportunity to be
so right after that
begins.
He says to
the discusses the says
the
before that it says
Hashem says that I'm going to give to
the Jewish people and juxtaposed to that
is
meaning as if Moshenu is being masked to
the blessing of Israel that hashem gave
says
I also concur with that
then the has an really a remarkable
sabah
um here it goes ready for this says that
hashem tells moa go look at her is but
uh you're not getting
That's very interesting what happened
over here. Who sinned by the way the why
is Moshe not going into Israel? Because
Ben is sinned and they caused Moshe to
sin
along with them. And who did Hashem get
angry at? Hashem got angry at Moshe.
Mosha is not going in. And they're going
in. What? What's going on over here?
Claus sinned. Mosha gets slept into it.
They go into the land and he gets left
behind.
So if anything, Moshaenu should have
beef with the B Israel. He should be
really upset. They caused him to sin.
They maybe, if not them, their families
going and Mosha is left behind. What
would you have expected Mosha's reaction
to be? Maybe he would have been given
them had some choice words for them,
some words of rebuke, some words of of
annoyance at least. And what does turn
around and do?
It's the only time in the Tor he's
called the man of God because the fact
that he went up to the Shayim doesn't
mean he's a man of God. Maybe he's just
an angel. The fact he brought down the
mun. No, you know what the greatest act
in the life of Mosenu was? When the
people who he cared for sinned and he
bears their responsibility and he's
being punished, he's not going into the
land and they are instead of being
annoyed, instead of lashing out. What
does Moshenu do? He says you should be
gvenched. You should be blessed. that
demonstrates that Moshabenu is a royale.
He forsakes his own needs for the sake
of the Jewish people out of his kadusha.
And therefore, he's called Ishikim.
He was not called isim anywhere else in
the Tory
to show he's godly. He's divine. He
overlooks his iniquity.
And therefore, we find similarly when it
was decreed upon him the you're not
going to bring in the people.
Immediately it says,
to show his greatness that even though
he wasn't going to be allowed to go into
he didn't stop trying to help the Jewish
people even though they caused his whole
problem here also they caused him not to
go in and nevertheless they he still
blessed them
kishla
we'll end off our journey of
tion
going into
with what the calls this is a wondrous
connection between the end of and the
beginning of
that despite the fact they caused him to
lose outu
generously blessed them that is
on paras
we thank
for granting us this to explore All 54
parit of
you probably want to know what will we
be doing this coming year. We did
one second. We did the we did connecting
the paras to the time of the year. We
did connecting the first and last of the
par. This year we did
what are we going to do in tin pay z.
most ambitious and courageous project of
yet for toughen pes I don't know if I
could reveal you know I'll give you a
little we have to because you're not
supposed to just stop you have to start
again immediately
you ready for this I have never found
anyone who discusses this
[snorts]
what is the theme of the para you knew
that you knew
How do you know that? I I let this the
beans
>> the theme
>> the theme what's the theme of the para
like what makes paras
the creation of the world okay so stop
after uh after shabas the creation of
man okay so stop after marishine the
creation of the world the creation of
man his children and then nine
generations and then we'll stop okay
that's not very thematic is it I mean as
a speaker
if somebody would get up and give a dr
and say okay I'm now discussing
then I'm going to talk about what a
cheese danish is then I'm going to tell
you about how many saw in a mikvah and
then I'm going to talk about
okay it's a very nice drussa but you
know how did what made that a dr how did
you decide to package those things in
one druss so I just want to know one
simple thing I don't know why anyone
discusses this. What is the theme of the
para?
>> I once heard that the theme is in ra.
>> No, I um that's very nice. First of all,
I can't accept that because the concept
of ravi was arbitrarily made up by a
school teacher about 150 years ago and
none of the agreed with him and they
couldn't shake it. And I actually want
to give a sh on this this year bleed
who made up sheni does it have any
standing and the answer is no has no
standing
>> I think there's a hakama there's hakama
and there have been a on the para
>> there there is a hakama but the hakama
sometimes only leads you into the
beginning of the para and sometimes for
example parasro or other paras where the
intro only leads you into the very first
topic of the para but it doesn't in any
way make one unified theme. If you could
find me someone who even discusses it
for one para
then I will either give you a hug
personally or I'll figure out a way how
to send one virtually.
>> You connected the Torah to the power.
>> Okay. So,
>> okay. I I connected the ha. So let's say
for an example K says right and of says
I never took a donkey
and say I never took a donkey fine but
would you say the theme of kak is mosha
didn't take donkeys
no it's just one detail of the para
>> has connected the end of the previous
para which is right the end of one para
the beginning of the Yeah,
>> Rebi says that that if we want to look
at a book, you look at the beginning of
the book.
You look at the beginning of the book.
>> I agree.
>> I ideally ideally when we did and we
connected the beginning of the para and
the end of the para that should really
capture the essence of the para. Now
many of the con that might be a hint.
Many of the times we found connections
from the beginning of the end, but it's
hard to say that's the essence. It's
hard to identify then. Yeah.
>> It's like you did in the in the in the
>> I understand.
>> I understand. Yes.
>> Yes. Exactly. The question is lots of
luck finding using that for each para.
It's not so easy.
We would have to go back
and see how that somehow defines what
the para is about.
Okay, it's food for thought. I'm not
committed yet because I don't even know
if we could do it for one para.
Okay, I I'll let you think about it.
That is
now. Here we go.
