mishpaches okay so the rebbe mayor event has become a very regular regular event and uh this is very important because rav khayim falaji writes that we are adjured and we are commanded and we are encouraged never to forget about the great tana rabbi mayor bahanas we always have to think about rabbi mayor valhanes actually i want to share with you something uh some top secret information in a few weeks we're going on a special trip to the kevar of rabbhayan falaji where khan falaji is buried in izmir and if you want to join us on that trip we only have a few spots left then um please uh let us know as soon as possible but you tells us that we always have to be cognizant and remember the great tana mayor balanes and therefore how worthy and important it is always to have uh rebecca and felaji on a rab mayor on our mind um rokhan falaji writes this in the safe we always need to think about the holy tana ramire but amazingly we don't pass knight kramer we never pass can like romero why don't we passing like romer the gemara aravind says on your gimli base that we pascal like those who disagree with ramirez because goluyvia do alif it's revealed unknown before the almighty that rav mayor was the greatest sage in the whole generation so why don't we possibly like him because friends could not plumb the depth of ramirez's understanding in other words they didn't understand what he was saying he was so deep he was so profound ramir was such a great hakam that the khawrim of amer did not understand him and therefore there's a rule in shas so if you're listening write this down there's a rule in chas we don't passkin like rebbie mayer however as we've said many times the rajba in the chew voice adidas and rashford base he writes that regarding the mahlicus remain revered regarding this we do ask and like mayor that we are always considered the children of hashem bangkok or bangkok so even though rabiu huda holds that when we do the will of hashem then we are could consider abundant when we don't do the will of hashem we're considered avadhim rav mayor holds bangkak ubenkak nikarambonim we are always considered the the children of hashem why do we passing on like ramer regarding this macholicus i'm sure many of you know and i'm we're going to get to a lot of new information today but let's just set the table there are a number of reasons why firstly the whole reason why normally we don't possibly like remember is because the rabbis did not understand ramirez however regarding what our relationship with that is with hakadosh barco that's something relevant to hakadosh and i called who certainly plumbs the depth of rav mayor's shita so regarding this macho kiss we passed glycogen that is the reasoning of the ms liakov the rajput says we passed in like mayor because ramirez to support his viewpoint and the emma sayakov offers another reason we pass can like remember because the gemara is shakel vittari the gemara discusses more um the gemara discusses ramirez's opinion in depth as opposed to the sheet of ravi which the gemara does not discuss at all that indicates like ramer and another uh reason we passing like ramer because in this braisa regarding what our relationship is with akris baruch the gemara cites ramir shita ii rav mayor is the tanakama however when it comes to this macho i guess the gemara cites ramiroshita second indicating that ramirez has the final word regarding this macholicus another reason why we're passing like mayor uh says rebel value yourself is because rabbi akiva seems to pass can like ramire regarding the indian of tsudaka as gemara says in baba bastar rabbi akiva is of the opinion that we're always allowed to give todaka uh even though tornas rufus says why are you always allowed to give sadaq if you're not doing the will of hashem then you're god's servants and god decreed that the person shouldn't have money so if the king decrees a servant shouldn't have money if somebody goes and feeds and supports the servant they will be executed and rabbi kiva says no bad analogy what if the king decrees that no one should support his son and somebody goes and supports the son anyway the king will reward that person rabbi kiva says we are always considered the children of hashem which indicates that he agrees through our mayor bain being the quran so that's the stage in general we don't pass king like our mayor when it comes to the idea that we are always the children of hashem in this instance we do possibly like our mayor however there is another exception to this rule there's another area in torah that when it comes to this area in torah we always have to pascal like our mayor and that is the gemara tells us i see ben yehuda would praise his students he would say rab mayor is a chrome and a cipher a wise man and a scribe rabbi huda is a christian is wise when he wants to be rev terrifying is a pile of nuts ravi ishmael is a well-stocked store rabia kiva is a treasure trove that is full raby is a box of spices rebel husband azaria is a box of bisom the teachings of lesbian yakov are pure and clean rabjoysi the depth of his reasoning is with him rib shimon grinds a lot and produces a little but what's the praise of ramayana ramirez is a wise man and a scribe in fact if you look in the gemaran saita the gemara soyta says that that when he learns by rabbi rabbi akiva said tamara what is your malacha and ramirez said i'm a scribe and rabbi akiva said be very careful in your work because your work is the malach of shamayim if you make one mistake you could destroy the whole world and the gemara goes on to say that ramayana boasted that he is proficient in the iseros and the khaseros and the extra letters and the missing letters of the torah suramar had proficiency in safras furthermore the gemara says in megillah bays that you when you're writing the stam you cannot write baalpe you know what's thomas tom is say foreign and mezuzah you can't write by heart you have to copy it from a pre-existing text so the gemara asks but what do you mean there's a story about ramayana that he went to ima abrahad hashanah in asia by the way you know where a mayor went ramir went to turkey so that's another reason why you should join us in going to turkey but that's for a different time mayor went to abraham and he did not have a megillah and he wrote the megillah by heart says rabbi avorah mayor is different by ramayor it says his eyelids looked directly ahead and the quran says what does that mean this refers to divreitara that torah is elusive it flies away from someone it's very difficult to remember torah but by revmere it was like in front of his mind's eye so we see ramire had a special knack for safras he was an expert in sapphires and therefore look in the shao sachivas genas veradim claude simentesvav that even though we don't um pascal like ramirez when it comes to safrus we always pass game like a mayor why because ramire was an expert in safras so even though when it comes to other halachas we don't pass in like a mayor because of ramirez's great proficiency in saffros we pass glycera mayor when it comes to sapphires now i want to tell you i think that the name mayor is a very beautiful name and that's why i have a hashem a son mayor so for the rest of the show i want you to write out the following four letters in big meme and you're going to see that rebbe mayer who is an expert scribe the name mayor actually stands for a few important uh details of ramayana's proficiency in safras okay let's begin now we find in a number of places of ghazal that the safer torah of ramire was a very special severe torah and a unique safer torah in fact in ramirez's safer torah there were discrepancies from uh what we have in um in our asvaram in other words rob mayer say for actually had different letters than we have in our safer torah so for example we know that after hashem created the six days of creation and ali kim saw everything he made and behold toiv it was very good says the madrish voracious rabba [Music] what i'm reading it to you today is from our holy saver alako de meranini um this comes from the end of the sapphire in the nispakrim section and to get a hold of your own personal copy of ella kadamer very beautiful cover we have a picture of tavaria and the cover of ramir balanese please go to our site rabbidg.com and it's available there with free shipping right now it's being offered at a very special price and it's only being offered at that price for about another day or so so please take advantage the medrish tells us then the safer torah mayor it didn't say vihene instead of it said death is good instead of saying it was very good god saw everything he made was very good it said vinay toiv maves death is good and the rashas explains that the letter aleph could be exchanged with a tough through the system of at-bash and the letter dalid could be exchanged with avov because they both come from the same part of the mouth but the question is what does that mean in rav mayor's safer torah it said i mean if it said that in his safe retire it's a safety kosher and rashi on the madrish the parish on says actually and mayor safer torah it said maves but then his savior torah had a toast in it now the mannas kuhuna writes that no not in the actual safety of the savine toy mothers but on the in on the margin of the severe torah it said maves the it's yosef said no doesn't mean it has safer torah it doesn't even mean in the margin of the sacred torah what it means is ramire had a safer of draw choice and in that safer of jerush he wrote a drush based on the reading vihine toiv maves so that's the first discrepancy in the safer torah of ramir here's another discrepancy we know that the god made for adam and his wife vayas alaikum garments of leather it's spelled in our surface torah garments of leather however the medrasraba says parsha bays but tyroso is sha ravi mayor in the torah of ramayana it says khas noise are with an aleph garments of light not garments of leather so was the safer torah kosher so here too the it's yosef explains it doesn't mean it is actual safety it means in his hiddushim on the torah he said a drush based on the exposition that it said garments of light however the manas kahuna explains in a different offen and then he does regarding the discrepancy of maves and he says that ramer was always thinking about the great madriga of admirishine before his sin and we know other reasons before his sin did not wear physical clothing but his body was so illuminating and gave off so much light that was his clothing the madrego about the marisha and kaiden was madre of costners are with an aleph revmir was always thinking about the madriga of admiration of kosanas are within aleph that he made a mistake he was so immersed in thinking about the madriga of admiration of costly star within aleph the madrega that he made a mistake and he wrote it with an aleph the seifer yaday maisha explains that what does it mean in rav may or secretary said questions are with an aleph it means because ramayana held that a cayenne whose marooba begat them for his sin offering he brings the power and we know admiration as his carbon broader power that means he was atoned for and he came back to his original level of custodies are with an aleph but bottom line is there are many ways to learn that it didn't actually say this and remain for tyre but there was a reason why in the world of ramayana and the thought process of ramir he was focused on the way of reading the words kasana star with an aleph so so far we have one discrepancy instead of vayara ali khimas khalashar al-savin and another discrepancy is instead of cosmology r with an i in cosmos are with an aleph so we have one discrepancy with the mem and one with an aleph instead of or with an i in aleph costners are with an aleph here's another discrepancy in the severe terra mere how many children did dunn have the shortest passage and the children of don are hushing well wait a second if don has children then why does it only say hushem and if he only has hushem it should say ubendan so the even ezra says it could be that don had two children one of them died and he's not mentioned but therefore it says vinay don uvene dun dun had a few children but they didn't survive and the only one that survived was khushem deals with this question and tells the story somebody said my nakasim should go to banai and he had a son and a daughter and the question is can a person will a person refer to just one son as banai and or maybe not the gemara says maybe banai refers to his son and his daughter says ah i'll bring you a proof bonai refers to just the son of naydon that was the proof of abbaye and robert said back no maybe it just meant that many descendants came from don that were kekushim khanna bottom line is in the passage of nada doesn't mean dun in fact had many children like rava says or like abbayi says that uh done and it's referring just to khushem so what does it mean in the torah of ramayr it said ah so the matter says in the torah of ramayana it said uben uben so it seems like ramir in his savior tower he changed the tradition of uvene dan hushem to answer the question that dunn only had one son so why does it say uh nay and says ramayana change it uben and if you look in the eights yosef he explains that the reason why in ramayana is safer torah it said uben don is so you don't make the mistake and think that don had many children so mayor changed it to uben and for and don was actually the final child that was muslim the 70 and he's considered like two because he had many uh population came from him and therefore it says who've made don not because don had more than one son but because of the many descendants that came from him but so that you don't make a mistake and think that don had more than one son or mayor safer torah changed it to uven don the mahazav in his commentary to the madris he explains that ramir didn't change the text at all on the margin of the sacred torah he wrote khushem khasar to indicate that the descendants of dan were weak in their ammuna and therefore it writes uh don hushem to indicate that they were not they were they were noita to pass a michael but in no way did it actually say uben don khusham in the torah of ramir in fact interestingly the targum translates the passage of nadan and he doesn't the targum doesn't say uh ben don and in the commentary on the targum from ravnas and adler this is not to be confused with the rebbe of some sort this is nathan marcus adler chief rabbi of great britain he wrote a commentary of targum the classic commentary on targum called nasi na lager he says targum is coming la afuque in other words the targum rights to come to exclude the way ramayana or seifer presented it and then there's a third discrepancy so again one is ramayana wrote maves and ceremony are with an aleph instead of an iron u vendon without a yoda instead of a yod and then the you shall me in tightness paragal of says then the passage of ushaya the dalit to arrest so it comes out that there are four discrepancies in the safer torah of ramire you're writing this down mem instead of mothers instead of are with an ayan or with an aleph yud instead of uv uben instead of duma masa raini and he says the name mayor is rasheed voice the four discrepancies of the safer torah of ramayana mam is maves and said aleph is are with an aleph instead of an ayan you it is uvandan husham instead of hushem and instead of duma and the tairasai saurabh mayor is actually a compilation of jirashas of ramayana and it's called tairasa mayor because mayor is a mnemonic to to remember four of the various drush shows that ramirez writes about in that uh safer namely start with an aleph will bend on take out the ud and masa roy me instead of duma so the name mayor and this and the name of the safer terraces is an acronym to help you remember the four discrepancies of ramer says the safer minha that many tanoam and amaram were maramis to their names in the names of their safer like rebels roy keach writes and the for instance the madrish taje which is the matters tate because it begins with the apostate dasha the word taje is gematria 705 which is i would like to share with you a novel interpretation of what this torah of ramir was perhaps we could say this was not a safer of jerushas or a mayor had and it for sure doesn't mean that mayor had his own safer torah that was written differently than anybody else's and it doesn't mean it was a safer of jerusalem or he wrote this in the margin but i'd like to share with you a novel shot i didn't see this anywhere we recorded this in our humble seifer al-akhada mayor nini on page shin ayam base the gemara says the megillah base it is prohibited we mentioned this earlier to write stam say for tarot by heart you have to write it from a previous text review said but what do you mean red mayor one time went to asean and he didn't have a safer so he wrote it by heart says the gemara shanira mayor ramirez written on it's it's fulfilled in him your eyelids will look straight ahead these are the words of torah that were me you sharing heine sarah the words of torah are directly in front ramire what kumara seems to be saying is that romero is on such a high madriga that the words of torah never eluded him never flew away from him never left him but in his mind's eye he would look straight ahead and he would just see the safer torah in front of him in his mind's eye so ramire even though he wrote a sacred torah from memory and he didn't write it from a previous previously written document for a mayor it's considered as if he's writing it from a previous written document because in front of him was a document what was the document not a physical document but the torah was pictured in front of him similar to what the mission bureau says we know srivisi hashem one should place god before before themselves always which means one should always envision the yud kev of k in front of them wherever you walk wherever you look you see the yud kevke it doesn't actually say you're kevaf k but one should be so connected to hashem that it's as if the yud kevke was etched in the sky in front of him rev mayor was on the madrega that the torah was always in front of his mind's eye i would like to suggest that if ramire was able to write a safer torah from this etched safer torah in the mind's eye of ramayana and it was hilariously considered a safer that a mayor was allowed to write stamp from it even though didn't exist there's no physical safe air it was just the image of the tar that appeared before a mayor perhaps then when the medrash says in these four places that in the torah of ramayana it said mothers it does not refer to an actual safer this was not with a central mayor safer it was not written in the margin it wasn't a book of drush it was the mind's eye sephirah tower of ramayana when ramirez looked ahead and he saw bereishis brotherhood on that safer etched in front of him it said that's my humble suggestion now i just want to share with you the interesting line in the me embracious rabbi parsha allah is tells a story and there was a windy day and didn't come to the yeshiva and there were children there and the gemara the madrish ends says it's referring to a discrepancy that was in the severe torah mayor in the parasha of the aziyose says this refers to a safer that's called the anointing of ramir the marzab says similarly that maybe there was a medarish that was called ramir was proficient in the art of saffros his rebbe said about him that he was while everyone else in the world had to write a safer torah from something that was previously written rev mayor was able to write a safer from the safer in his mind's eye this was the great madriga of ramayana and as ariza says ramayana himself was on the madriga of kos noise or within aleph the madriga of adama reshain kaidem the hait where the torah was written so to speak on him this explains rebbe said that the reason why i am sharper than my friend is because i saw ramayana from behind if i would have seen him from the front i would have been even greater revmere was on such a high madriga that his whole entity and reality became an essence of torah revi became wise merely by looking at ramir as ramayana himself does the safer torah the safer terror mayor copied from was him it was qasil it was written on his heart where else do we find this madrega that somebody became wise by seeing the back but not the front we find this by hakodes barco hakalos broco tells maisha abbeyno you'll this was madriga of ramayana ramayana was able to be misdammed to the extent that rebbe said hi de gea did not have roy the reason i'm smarter than my friends is because i saw a mayor from behind if i would have seen him from the front i would have been even smarter so it's a great zuchus again to speak about ramayana as we can never be may see from the great tana ramayana balhanes to get your ella kadumeroni please go to our site rabbidigi.com where you could get this safer as well as the other safari with free shipping and while
