okay so uh between last night and today a number of lions were spotted and we didn't have a chance really to stop and to be Miss on the some of the LI of the lion I want to share with you three excuse me five about the number one in the which is of we mentioned there is brought he had never seen a lion and when a lion was spotted on chabis he traveled many a very long distance two M to be able to see these Lions now in Divine lion Divine lion what is that referring to Rashi says in his first interpretation that the fire on high crouched on the M like a lion so if you wanted to know what the fire on the M looked like it looked like a lion in a crouching mode or Rashi brings theal was like a lion anybody know how is the like a lion the was wide in the front and narrow in the back like a lion that's Broad in the front and narrow in the back teaches that the wisdom of adish was apparent in his ability to give names to the various animals especially in the name ar ar the ALF is from one of the Sham of hem the Y from the sh the he also from the shim and the the r is R giving it animation the ability to move so these four letters of AR all have significance As We Know by the way the AR the image of the AR was on the what are the four AR which is a big discussion what exactly is the is it the eagle or the Griffin vulture K and okay now we mentioned [Music] ar ar stands for El Rashana yera and finally we learn a very important thing from a lion it's worthwhile to travel across the world world to see a lion does anybody know which Mitzvah do we learn from The Lion actually two mitv Mitzvah number one says you at least want to be able to check off the first that's always a good idea to check off you know many people bought the check off list of the various animals and of all the hundreds of animals in the check off list we saw every single one Ruba kakula Ruba missed Ruba kakula and if if you didn't see it your ma saw it you don't even realize you know now so we learned from The Lion The now many people have a hard time getting up in the morning so the gives very good advice why is it difficult to wake up in the morning cuz thear says you're going to get up in the morning early every single day that's too much to do it every day so the kiter says what you tell theara is you only need to do it three times and once you do it three times it becomes and then it's not hard anymore and re Gilbert would say if you do it 40 days then it's like you create yourself that that's what you're progr to do but even three times already you begin a a routine yeah and finally a very important we learned from The Lion The says in I will be to them like a lion like a leopard on the road literally to Assyria the ramam says that somebody who does not believe in the coming of or does not actively await his coming he's not just a heretic in the I'm sorry he's not just a heretic in the words of the prophets if you don't actively await the coming of mashia you are not believing in the so the question is we're in the does it say I understand maybe it talks about believing in coming mhia where does it say you have to actively await the coming of mashia does it say in the you need to be where does it say in the you need to be the P says Inu I see it but not now literally i gaze at it even though it's not close so the PK seems to be saying I see the end of days but right not right now I gaze at it but it's not closed says brisar ASU doesn't mean i gaze at it in order to know what airu means you have to go to the in in it [Music] says will be to them like a lion can like a leopard on the road to Assyria says Rashi no Asher doesn't mean Assyria because whenever it has Ashu there's a dot in it there's no dot here it means I will be like a lion like a Le on the road means I wait an ambush says Rashi like in the so when the says it means not I see the even though it's not close it means I lay in Ambush for the days of the end of days even though it's not close says is a source that it's not enough to believe in mhia you have to actively await and anticipate his his immediate coming ASU I lay in Ambush for the coming of mhia so when you see the lion waiting in Ambush the symbol of the Lion is to actively yearn for the coming of mashia and for that Li it's worthwhile to travel to Krueger National Park driven by Ernst to learn this very important message okay
