The Wildfires & The Power of Torah

there are wildfires ravaging the Los Angeles area and a believing Jew understands that whatever Hashem does in the world it's not only to show his power and his ability but it always has a specific message to the Jewish people the PK says who he is Hashem Our God in all the world are his judgments meaning whatever Hashem does in this world he does as our God and it is a message for us what do we learn from these ravaging wildfires in Los Angeles firstly we learn the power of fire the amount of damage these fires have wrought so far approximately $250 billion of damage it will take they estimate about 10 years to recover from this and to understand the scope and the range of influence that these fires have the uh area the largest area of the wildfires is the Pacific Palisades area destroyed 23, 713 acres in the Eden area the second largest fire burning north of the Palisades 14, 1117 Acres the fires destroyed about 12 ,000 structures the Hurst fire 799 Acres auto area 56 Acres Kenneth area 1,52 the Lydia 395 and the Archer area the Woodle area the Aliva Sunset area tens of thousands of Acres have been destroyed think about the power of influence of fire where it starts off as a small flame but its ability to destroy such large areas is really Illustrated in what we're seeing with our very own eyes our T teaches us that TOA is compared to fire actually this is explicit in the is my word not like fire says Hashem in fact the gamar teaches us that if you see a young Torah scholar who gets angry easily it's not his fault it's the toyra in him that is burning and that is agitating him the toyra is a powerful force our sages teaches teach us thees teach us that there have been four Exiles that the Jewish people have endured each Exile we are redeemed in the Merit of another great personality the first Exile were're redeemed in the Merit of Abraham the second y the third yov The Babylon in the Merit of Abraham Persia in the Merit of Y Greece in the Merit of yov and the final Exile the Exile of Ed we will be redeemed in the Merit of however says the reason why this Galos is lasting so long is because m is the one who gave us the T and he does not want to redeem us until the Jewish people are strengthen themselves in Tyra and if you want to know well what kind of influence can Tyra have will my little study of Torah really have such a universal make such a universal impact of course it will because tah is like fire and Hashem is illustrating to us that a small little flame just a small fire it's able to spread it's able to devastate it's able to destroy tens of thousands of acres in a few minutes it could run through ravage many football fields worth if that's the power of physical fire our tradition isid that the attribute of kindness is 500 times more powerful and if this is the destructive power of Fire Imagine The Power of the influence of fire for good imagine how much influence learning of Toyo will reverberate if a Jew would open up aish and learn Kish with Rashi learn mishna learn gamar that small Torah learning will literally reverberate throughout the world especially if you teach T today with technology a little bit of Torah learning literally could reverberate not only through tens of thousands of Acres not only through entire cities not only through entire States but throughout the entire universe so Hashem in the end of days one of the messages that we're able to learn is if this is the power of physical fire imagine what the power of Tyra is imagine how far it could travel imagine how swiftly it could reverberate and influence your entire family and your entire community and the entire world this is aushi a vivid illustration of the of of the power of fire and if this is the power of fire for Devastation imagine the great power of fire Lea to bring blessing to the world to bring Redemption to the world and to bring Redemption to the Jewish people wishing everyone
