this torah class is brought to you by torahanytime.com okay i want to share with you the next part of the bar mitzvah series part four uh and it's connected to the first part in the part one in the first half of this series we mentioned the hidden who said that the macarthur of making a sudah for a bar mitzvah in fact the amsters said that sudas bar mitzvah simcha sudas mitzvah source is a gemaran conduction the gemara says that rabbi yosef who was blind said that at first he thought it's better to make him it's just when you're not obligated so if somewhere someone were to tell him that a summa is potter from he would make a big sudah because he does the mitzvos anyway but now that he heard that said that goddamm now if somebody would say inaudible he would make a big sudah for the rabbanaan because now he knows that asuma is khayev and he's mekaim the mitzvahs so says get a hold of yourself but now he has the idea and he has the knowledge that is so says the yamashi if merely having a yadiyya and the knowledge that you're miso would prompt him to make a surah for the young boy who was in reality potter from mitzvoth and now is khayev and mitzvos now that he has a idea that he's high of not now he just happens to find out but now in reality he is kayev certainly it would warrant making a sudas mitzvah so i want to share with you the question of the imna i have someone in my shul a good friend of mine two brothers rafi and etan weinberg who are our great grandsons of rabb he brings the question of moire was the rabbi who brings a very sharp lambda shakasha on the yamcha beautiful question he says like this you know the government in aravind says that there was a macho that went back and forth beside me so two and a half years and uh is it better for a person to have been created or not to have been created and the gemara says nimnubagamru they counted and they came to the conclusion [Applause] it would man would have been better off never been created that was the conclusion so the question is what does it mean nimnu vegamru what does it mean nimnu vegamra what do you mean they counted so the marshall explains they made a simple they counted the mistletoes in the torah they're more slow than mrs assay they're 365 mitzvahs assay they're 248 mitzvahs assay and they counted that they're more mitsubishi than i say so it's better off not being created because now that you're created you're more likely to violate there are more opportunities to make a mistake than there are to do the right thing they're more opportunities to violate allah than to the kaiman mitzvah and therefore the gemara says they counted they're more loving than but let's get something clear there is the opinion of the prima godim and the prima goddamn could be found in the sikha kailalas islam in gama also a chuva of the knight of the semen kofi base that even if you say summa is potter mitzvah it's a blind person is potter from that's nice that's only he's not obligated to mikhail in the midst of say but certainly he's not going to violate allah in the torah summa can't wear shatness the summa can't speak la shanhara it's only as soon as not obligated to make in the midst of sase so if that's the case what raya do we have to make a suda for a bar mitzvah fish lama rabbi yosef if he would have found that asuma is higher than mitzvahs so until then he only had a uh be careful not to violent violate the laven because if asuma's potter from mid-size he's only potter from the assays but the the whole time he would have been kayev not to violate the laven now that he finds out he is hive in the mistletoe so he just had added to his responsibility another 248 opportunities to do the right thing so that's why if uh rabbi yosef found that asumas hive amidst us he would make a sudah mashiach in a bar mitzvah boy before his bar mitzvah not only is he not high to making the 248 mr sansei he's also not responsible if he violates the 365 laven if that's the case why in the world should he make a sudo when he becomes the bar mitzvah he's better off not becoming a bar mitzvah the same way nimnu gomrun adam shalinivra because now that a person is created they're more opportunities to violate lavan that there are than there are to become an assay so too when a person is a mikaye when a person becomes a bar mitzvah until now he was better off because yes he couldn't have 248 opportunities from the kind of missile he also didn't have 365 possible pitfalls so now yes he has more opportunity opportunities to do good but he has far more opportunities to make a mistake that being the case why should we have a source what's the valid source from asuma asuma should have to make a sudha because he's just adding the positive mr sase but a bar mitzvah boy we're not not only he's he now kaivan 248 assay he's also liable to the levin why should it be a source of simcha why don't we apply the rule so i'll let you think about that question it's alum the shakasha on the indian environment this is the fourth part of the bar mitzvah series wishing everyone a good evac you've just experienced another torah class brought to you
