morning in progress good morning my dear friends I want to share with you two thoughts regarding the upcoming shab we know this coming chabas is called shabas because of the great miracle that happened on the 10th day of Nissan the Jewish people tied their sheep to the doorposts and they tied their sheep to the uh to the bedst to prepare for the p and the MIT saw as we were preparing their to be slaughtered and they couldn't do anything to us they nashed their teeth and they were not able to harm us and this was a great miracle and we commemorate the shabas before pesak and the question that many many M ask is what does this miracle have to do with chabas it happened on the 10th of Nissan so we should commemorate the 10th of Nissan not shabas when in Judaism do we ever go by the day of the week we always go by the calendar date pesak is the 15th of Nissan not Thursday you know Hashem took us out of of M on a Thursday but we don't celebrate pesak on a Thursday we go by the calendar date PM is the 14th of Adar khaka is the 25th of klave normally we commemorate the calendar date not the day of the week why Why by shabas do we uh celebrate Why by shabas is it commemorated by the shabas so the in the says something astounding the says we know that the Mak did not dominate on chabas the bat says the makos were not active on chabas the tenth of Nissan was exactly the time of Mak now if the 10th of Nissan was a weekday the MIT would not have been able to see us slaughtering their carbon PES their God the M would not have been able to see us slaughtering their God and they would not have tried to harm us and it would not have been apparent the miracle that God saved us in other words you know what the miracle was the miracle was we were Shing the carbon p and the mum didn't harm us well how could they have harmed us but there was a mock of Darkness the answer the answer is no there wasn't a Mak of Darkness it was chabas and on chabas there's no Maka so in order to commemorate the miracle we have to commemorate the fact that it was chabas because had it not been chabas it wouldn't have been a miracle because they wouldn't have even seen what we were doing because it would have been so the factor of shabas the the fact that there was a shabas is what made it a miracle so therefore when it's commemorated it's commemorated on shabas okay that's one beautiful offering from
