Good morning everyone.
Shalom shalom. Thank you everyone for
coming. It's a great and joy to see
everyone this morning. I know many of
you came from far and wide. I want to
acknowledge my friend Gary Shapiro who
came all the way from Sydney, Australia.
Wow.
>> And then from Natana he drove 2 and 1
half hours this morning with his son Ben
who it's his bar mitzvah. So in a in
accordance with the effort so should
Hashem answer all of our I want to take
this opportunity to thank my dear friend
Renas and Wler for organizing this trip
literally I don't want to say uh he
worked 16 hours a day he worked 24 hours
a day people messaging him literally all
hours of the day uh for many weeks about
this trip we have upcoming trip at the
end of January to the north and to Kron
if you want to join that and I want
Thank for all of his efforts to help
bring to
should stand up for him and his whole
family.
>> Okay, I want to take the opportunity.
This is the 49th yard site of the saddic
of Ranana. In honor of the occasion, we
published a new edition of the Benla
Ashri. We call it Bhaat Sadik. And
people want to know what exactly it is.
It is word for word the safer benri. But
in the original three volume edition of
ben ashri there are many long
complicated pieces many very complex
gamatrios many cabalistic pieces. So
what this addition is is it takes out
the pieces that are perhaps more user
friendly more accessible.
We made it with subtitles with makudis
with some explanations on the bottom to
make the braha that the sadic offers.
Uh if you look on the in the what's
called the fours I'll show you what I
mean. When you open up a safar the so to
speak designed page on the inset of the
cover is called the forettes. So on the
forets we bring the various school
associated with the safer and the middle
one that says
he gives notification
that he decided to d every day call me
for anyone who studies the
tells over in my name the to others
they should be save from any distress
that they need a salvation.
This is a special
that if you study this safer and you say
it over to others, he commits himself to
pray on your behalf. Okay. So, let's
take the few minutes we have going up to
the kev to learn uh a piece or two
inside. will try to read it and
translate it and if you have a chance
over Shabas to say it over then
my humble wish is that this of this
great sadic should stand up for you for
whatever you and your family need. Okay.
A very interesting observation of the
ranana is the last piece in paras
page
the ranana has an amazing observation
you know in the Torah talks about the
death of Abraham and Sah it talks about
yitzkira
rifka's death is alluded to in the words
of course we talk about's
We talk about Jacob's death but ask
isn't it unusual there is no mention of
the leu what happened to that why is leu
why is there no record of her so in the
very last piece in sana says as follows
to in the holy work called dictake he
has the following observation
why doesn't it say when and how Leia
died
like it says that died.
In my humble opinion,
it would seem obvious.
Do you remember? Leia was coming
ra was coming with dud. What the dudam
were? Some say some kind of herb, a
fertility enhancing herb that Raala was
uh that Leia had and
Raal asked Leia for some of these dudim
and they made a trade. What was the
trade? Rael gave Leia Yako for the night
and in exchange Leia gave Rael the
dudim, the fertility enhancing herb. But
Kazal in the batious rabb say that what
Rael gave over was not only Yakov of Enu
for the night but Yakov was going to be
buried with Rael and Rael gave over her
right to be buried with Yakov to Leia.
So the reason why Jacob is buried with
Leia is because Leia Rael traded with
Rael the right to be buried with Yakov.
So they explain
that it's going on being buried in the
patriarchs.
We know never died.
It says that he expired and he died.
It doesn't say only he was gathered to
his people. So since Yakov never died
and Leia won the rights to be buried
with Yakov, Leia now becomes subsumed in
the identity of Yakov. So just like
Yakov never died, Leia never died. So it
doesn't say Leia didn't die cuz Kushi
was to the same so to speak life cycle
as Yakov. Namely, just like Jacob didn't
die, Leo didn't die.
Therefore, it doesn't say by Lea that
the concept of death applied to her.
Okay, that is we're going to go to the
main entrance. The main entrance. Um,
here's another idea that Sakarana says
the right. This is referring to the
quoted by
the Alma is there's a concept. Why did
Yakov have two wives? The relationship a
husband has with the wife represents the
relationship hashem has with rael is the
open relationship hashem has with the b
make their stood the lea alasay leia
represents
with hashem and golos. So raha
represents the revealed relationship
hashem has with the Jewish people and
represents the concealed relationship.
Therefore, Leia's death is hidden, Leia
represents the concealed relationship
Hashem has with the Jewish people. I
would humbly suggest that's the reason
why just like it doesn't say Leia ever
died, it doesn't ever say Yakov married
Leia.
It says Yakov married Rael and in the
morning it's not Rael, it's Leia. But it
doesn't actually say he married her
because her whole essence was of a
hidden nature. It doesn't say he married
her. It doesn't say she died
and lea is in the gulas. That's why in
tick there's tick rael and lea tick rael
is represents at a time of bignyan
shabas. Tika is the time of golos the so
that's a concept of
no main entrance. Main entrance. Yeah.
Okay. This is just one uh I think
amazing piece. By the way, I'll just
just share with you when uh originally
Kev Raal was just in an open area on a
road and then when Moses Montafury came
and he built the uh the iconic Kev of
Raal that everybody sees in the pictures
with the dome on top at first the were
very upset because this building was
covering over Rael's Kev and there's an
idea Raal always needs to be revealed
and not covered and it was considered a
violation of this principle. That Raal
needs to be
Raal needs to be
mainar.
>> Okay.
Khan. Khan. Yeah. Khan. So but when they
saw that the Arabs were it was not safe
to
so then they they endorsed the building
of Moses Montury but originally it was
considered proper that Rael's grave be
out in the open. Okay.
should be Barack.
