I have an interesting theory that I want
to I want to run by the guy like an
interesting theory mayor really. I have
a cash azi I have a cash on that I'm
struggling with. It's a cash that I've
learned with guys here and from guys
here. The ma that the yeshiva is
learning this year is kadush. It's anar
kadushian. The cash bothers me a lot.
It's not like a little cutesy kasha. I
want a deeper shot
and I have a thought mayor to resolve a
plan a thought. So I wanna I want to
share it's relevant to the para it's
relevant to our garin. So I want to
share the in paras in paras this past
week's para is the parish of
the guml
says says the following
it the garra says the following there's
a mitzvah to stand up for that's a
mitzvah it's a it says may
stand up for an old
and the face of a zumar
said what's a zak
and the obligates standing up for an old
man and a scholar
person of shouldn't say the word scholar
so you stand up for an old person and
says the gim that you don't lose money
for this mitzvah you don't have to pay
for it. You're not obligated to lose
money.
From here, we learn
if somebody has a business does not
stand up in front of
now that he's not obligated to stand up
is because you don't have to lose money
for it. You give honor sunny to you
don't have to lose money. So if you're
middle of work, you do not have to stand
up. But the lion of kazal is you're not
allowed to stand up. What does that
mean? Why can't I stand up for him if
I'm working? So, Tyus explains it means
you're working for somebody else. So, if
you'd be obligated to, tough luck.
You're working for somebody else. Since
you're not obligated to, you're not
allowed to.
So, Judah, if I'm working for somebody,
I have a job and I'm hired for a job and
a comes in the room. Normally, comes in
the room. you have a mitzvah to give
honor to the and you stand up. However,
if you're in the middle of working for
somebody else, so it would be a loss of
money, you're stopping to work. If you
work for yourself, you're not, but
you're all
if you work for somebody else, it's
you're not let him lose money for
standing up for because you're not
supposed to lose your own business. If
you want to, you can. But somebody else,
you're not allowed to. So that's what it
says. I don't want to just read this
kimar and like truck this kamar. It's
rather amazing. I'm not allowed to take
a dollar from somebody else. It's rather
amazing. I'm in the middle of working
and you can't get up in the middle of
working. I very much appreciate this.
There's a book called the holy woman
about a husband and wife. He was they
lived in the satire said that Sadik had
they had no kids. She was a victim of
manga,
right? They had no kids. She couldn't
have children. They raised about 22 kids
nobody else wanted to raise. People
would have a child with deformities.
People that have a child special needs
and the parents couldn't raise them.
They sent them to this couple. I think
they raised 22 children like this crazy
sadikim. They had kids in their house
who parents couldn't raise. They raised
them. They were like a husband and wife.
Now he worked his name this Yid worked.
His name was Rabbi Kramer. He worked and
he um he was a huge sadic and in the
book it describes as a worker how
careful he was not to steal from his
employees. He was hired for something to
be honest to his job in it. He was like
he was just tremendously honest to his
job. I'm paid for something and I
deliver what I'm paid for. I've actually
moved
I'm moved by this that if you're paid to
work and comes in, you're not allowed to
stand up. I'm working. I'm sorry. I'm
not allowed to stand up.
>> Money lose money for
>> So Yehuda says if there's no loss of
money, if there's no loss of money
standing up, we're talking about that
you're in middle of working that it
would literally be a middle of
something. You're not allowed. You're a
middle of something. I'm not allowed.
It's rather remarkable. A bal you'll
appreciate the question. And I'm going
to ask I think but don't appreciate cuz
I said so. We're going to see. So it
says if you're in the middle of working
for somebody else and by standing up for
the is a loss of money for your boss
to stand up. You're hired for a job.
You're in the middle of a job. You're
not allowed.
It says in a Mishna cold valley of noise
people in middle of work
when people came to your shalim bringing
bikurim there was a whole procession and
a beautiful march to if you're in the
middle of working you stand up for the
people bringing you say tough luck to
your boss and bal
and they ask
you engage in a conversation great to
see it's
great to
You ask the people who came with how are
you doing? You say
our brothers from such a place.
You greet them beautifully.
So,
so
says that
you stand up people doing a mitzvah.
>> The garra assume that you stand up to
them. You also stand up.
are bigger
said no
you stand up for such people doing a
mitzvah you do not stand up for
that's what said
come and see
you don't realize what it means a person
while he's doing a mitzvah
we have a fact if
You have a mitzvah to stand up for. If
you're in the middle of working, you
don't stand up. But a person's in the
middle of a mitzvah, you stop and you
stand up. So that's remarkable. I What's
going on here? For a person doing a
mitzvah, you stand up. Not
says, you see
how powerful it is when's doing a
mitzvah
in the middle of doing a mitzvah. You
stand up. You don't stand up for
that is the first opinion of the Garra.
Every bear with me. Bear with me please.
Everybody the first opinion of the Garan
is a guy in the middle of doing a
mitzvah. You stand up for him. Even
though you do not stand up because
that's how powerful in the middle of a
mitzvah. It makes him bigger than a
middle of a mitzvah. Whoa. He's holy.
He's connected. He's He's a precious
person. He's in the middle of a mitzvah.
He's bigger than a That's the Gar's
first.
>> The Gar's second approach.
Perhaps it's not that way. And this is
really what I want to focus on today. If
everybody could bear with me right now
what we just learned is that people come
by performing bikurim bikurim is a town
comes from their city bringing the first
fruits to your town
>> a because people join the farmer. There
was whole procession a lot of people
join a lot of people came along. So when
they come up to bring bikurim, you stand
up. You stop working and you greet the
farmers and all the friends, the
families that are coming up. If aim
would come, you don't stand up.
So the garra's first approach, why is
that? Is that bigger a year doing a
mitzvah than a middle of
>> what?
>> No, they're working.
>> They're middle of working.
>> That's a mitzvah.
>> No, people are middle of working. If a
Tam comes by, they don't stand up. If
the people come by, bring bikur and they
do stand up. The garra's first approach
is a mitzvah. Bishait
mitzvah is bigger than a
>> Yeah, that's crazy. That's amazing. We
could talk about that a long time.
That's amazing. But I I just can't I
want to speak about the gumar second
ter. We won't talk about it right now.
We could we some there's what I don't
want to like in learning a gamarra
sometimes you have your own agenda and I
get I do that sometimes you like run
through things that's pretty amazing
what we just read I don't want to truck
it that's actually amazing you know you
we're going many of us are going to
tonight and when the kala come in the
minigan to stand up why
so some claim because the is a melik and
the kala is a mala the problem is that
probably a melik and mala after the
after kadushin are they a melik on the
way debatably are you ever seen at a
you've had you've had siblings get
married what happens when the comes in
the room the entire crowd stands up why
>> except
>> a kala comes in they all stand up why
>> there's always that from me like but the
kala not standing up I don't know I'm
not you can stand up the ka comes in
don't be afraid
they want to
We're not trying to look here. Just
stand up. Be like a yid. Everybody
stands up. When in Rome the comes in,
everybody we stand up. The kala comes
in, we stand up.
So why do we stand up for them?
>> Azie, you ever wonder why? You've had
many siblings byem and all the siblings
should find their quickly.
>> So Azie, you walk in. Azie, why do we
stand up? uh for like respect
>> as what are they old
it's their you know wedding their moment
okay
>> we're there because of them
>> I that's I like that it's nice that's
nice like what's the I hear it's like
just not like what's the yins study our
people
>> says says come and ask you could
disagree with them yakov said it's the
same way people be on the way to a
mitzvah, you stand up. They're on the
way to the mitzvah of Peru rev of having
a family. It's one of it's the first
mitzvah, the Torah and we stand up to on
the way to the mitzvah.
>> It's not doing the mitzvah. It's even on
the way to
>> the way to the mitzvah's on the way
after we said you stand up.
>> Yes. On the way just on the way down
when there's doing a mitzvah
>> on the way to
>> if I'm going to put on you should stand
up. Is it there? The only thing I would
say to that hemo
Yehudas a guy walks in here to get his
we don't stand up. I would just say
that's not a mitzvah. It's called part
of the mitzvah. Here the parents
bringing them to is part of the mitzvah
that it's part of the mitzvah. They're
going to perform their mitzvah. The film
I could have put on out there and here
said that the reason Israel stands up
because they're on the way to a mitzvah.
That's what said remarkably. All of it's
good to know. I like know why I'm doing
things. There are two theories. Study
our people. Don't fight our people.
Don't do different than our people.
Israel stands up. Study why we do it.
Either because
it's the day of the
so you stand up for the king. What's
debatable is he's not really a mel. You
could say he's on the way.
>> That could be. How come you don't like
that rezi?
Why?
>> Cuz not yet. Oh, you like that? It could
be
>> like the
>> right. Oh. Oh, I like that. I like this.
So, if he says it's possible that
was standing up for the king all rise,
the king walked in. Very cool. That
could be a theory.
>> David
assume that they're on their way to
doing something.
>> It's that's very cool. Beloved by a
there's two
is a that you stand up for
that's a you stand up there's a separate
that if a person is doing a mitzvah says
you stand up for the people bringing
bikurim because they're on the way to a
mitzvah I love your question ya I don't
like I don't like David I don't like
pushing away the truth yuda asked very
nice I don't even like I realize I'm
like dismissing you said I have a big
A guy comes in the B medish to get his
filling. Maybe you should stand up.
Maybe you should. I don't like pushing
things away. You might be right. A guy
comes here to get his filling. He's
saying you should stand up. It It's not
so far. It's not.
>> It's not crazy. It's literally It's
funny. I'm like saying no. Is there a
sadic who stands up every time he gets
his filling? Is there such a thing? I'm
not. I like real things. Maybe he's on
his way to a mitzvah. It's not crazy.
That's great.
>> Pretty embarrassing to stand up every
time.
>> That's
it must be in the name. They're worried
like a guy comes at six. That's joke he
made because it says
how precious is a mitzvah in its time.
So he said in its time. He's late but
he's making a joke. The whole day is
kasher. Soi was making a good a good
line. But you I like your cash a lot.
It's funny that it's funny in learning a
gar you want to make your point. You
like truck the whole gumar. I have to
stop. It's a bad habit. Well, learning a
gar you ask a very good question. It's
honestly in a serious way an intelligent
thought and maybe he's right. You don't
just push away. No, no, no. What do you
mean no? Maybe yes. It's very very
intelligent. A guy comes in to get his
fill and maybe he should stand up.
Think about that. It's not a it's an
intelligent question. A real question
especially Jacob Kamki David
Yakov said the reason we stand up for
the kala is they're on their way to do a
mitzvah. Now it would be debatable then
the kala because the is commanded in
puru the kala is not but the only ver is
she still gets a kumis of purvu. She's
not mu but she has a kumis and and
besides a kumis of purvu she's also
helping him with his mitzvah. So you
could hear two yidd on the way to a
mitzvah said that's why we stand up
kadush is not a mitzvah puru is a
mitzvah. So there's no there's no
mitzvah not getting married itself.
>> Having children's a mitzvah that would
be a mitzvah because he's not let
together without there's no say that
>> there is a I don't want to say no there
is a but the assumption is kadush is not
the mitzvah the mitzvah it's not so
simple because we make under the on
marriage. So that's the shitz on the
mitzvah. It's debatable. There's talk.
There's real talk. We're learning.
Yeah. We're learning second parent now
realize that
>> there's real stuff.
>> I like this guy.
>> Yeah, he's right. Let him drive.
[laughter]
>> You're asking good things. Honestly,
it's funny when you learn a gimmar. I
have a tendency when I learn a gimmar
like I want to bring something out.
You're like truck the whole gamarra.
It's not like chill out kish. like let
the garura talk a bit instead of you
talking kaish it's like a bit bit of a
loud mouth let the gumra talk so I like
what he's asking he asked first of all
walking in for fillain should you all
stand up I think that's highly
intelligent question if we really stand
up person do the mitzvah so a guy comes
in here that's like a serious thing very
serious thing I don't I don't take don't
take these things light don't even be
like it's funny it's not a weird
question a very strong question very if
you stand up for bikurim for mitz
mitzvah any mitzvah
asked that if you stand up for
so he said anybody comes we should stand
up I thought it was an intelligent
question I don't know
it's not necessarily do we not pass and
I told them that said that we stand up
they're about to do this mitzvah so and
this is The what would you say
>> and are both mitzvah that are that are
very infrequent
>> very
>> that's cool
>> maybe that's the bish even like a
mitzvah oh my goodness this is the time
so a daily mitzvah you don't stand up
>> you don't see people standing for
mitzvah also like that's a good call you
don't see everybody st every guy a guy's
doing you know a guy gets a call from
his dad we all should a guy in middle of
this here goes to the hallway. My mom's
on the phone so we should all get up.
He's
so Raas is saying a mitzvah means
infrequent
to give cover to the mitzvah but has to
be infrequent
infrequent. Maybe that's even like the
[clears throat] bish in its time means
when there's like a unique time. Whoa.
This is the moment of the mitzvah and
because you could put on fill in the
whole day. It's not like a mitzvah of
not the hadash of what time of is there
like a ship maybe that's a nice terret
and you say smartly that you don't see
every time the guy you're talking to a
friend my mom called you should stand up
for him you're both sitting he walks out
he's doing a mitzvah stand up
>> so that's I like that ter
>> any that walks in the room is there like
>> so that's the two times not all day each
time but there is time like
>> yeah that's we should study these
there's real to this standing up
to study these nice to see you welcome
welcome guys welcome welcome [applause]
first name Yetsi
>> Yity I'm so happy you're welcome yet
>> is from Baltimore and I'm thankful he's
in Ysi Vinyamov right
>> did I say the last name right
>> yeah [applause]
Welcome.
So, but I I want So, now I want to get
Ari to the second terret because there's
there's something I want to share with
the Kevra thought. I'm really interested
if you like my thought. The cash I have
a strong casher that I had last year.
The cash is old. I have a terrace that
like I thought of over this past year,
but I want to share it. You first. Let
me ask the question. Everybody got the
fact a middle of working you do not
stand up for
and you do stand up for and that is a
very thing is a mitzvah. This guy is
that should be bigger. So one terret the
gumar is you misestimated a mitzvah is
bigger than a but the gumar is a second
ter is a mistake in the first ter.
>> Yes. Yeah. in in the in in the first a
mitzvah is bigger than a says the Gar no
maybe really is bigger than a mitzvah.
So why do you stand up for the guy?
You know why you stand up for bikurim?
They won't bring bikurim next time.
Explains Rashi
explains Rashi. They're not they're
going to say this is so embarrassing.
The the people are bringing little
fruits to you.
And if everybody doesn't stand, it's
going to lead to a problem. The people
are going to be like shamed.
Oh, it's like we're coming to bring some
fruits.
So, we give them respect. We stand up.
Really's
bigger.
>> Uhhuh.
>> But it's a big problem not to give them
respect. They're going to feel like
small. So, give them cover.
>> That's [clears throat] what the second
you hear. That's the terrorist. Ask Stan
Kish and this cash. You don't have to me
it's a bomb casher. This there's my
nobody that's a bomb cash. It's it
bothers me. Bomb cash is a stupid
language. I promise you this question bo
It bothers me. It troubles me that what
does it mean give cover give respect. Do
you respect them and you're tricking?
Let's say they learn this. The farmer's
like I know you're tricked. Just all
knock it off and leave me alone. It's a
bunch of babies like really then we
don't stop guys in the middle of and
you're if you're working and comes in
you don't stop to stand up. So why are
you standing up for the people? Because
it's dangerous not to
>> the next time they won't come.
>> There still is a
>> so fake it.
>> It's not a So basically you're not me.
shouldn't be doing this. But listen, we
whisper to each other.
When he walks in, everybody
covered means respect. Covet is a real
thing. Respect.
How do what's what's the energy? What
does this look like? What does it mean?
How do you rally the people when they
come? I know they're like, we really
shouldn't be doing this. Listen, you
know, they might not bring bikurum
again. What's the energy that covers?
Not really. You're not mad. Really?
You're not. What's happening here? The
next time they won't, it bothers me.
True. Any any waterberry guy learns this
if guys learns his he's bothered by he's
he's a rebu. He'd be bothered by this
because they're going to be shamed. So,
let's all stand up. What's the energy of
that meeting? So, we all we're a bunch
of trick. Let's say the guy learned this
and he just says, "I know you're just
trying to make me feel good. Come on.
because you be so we have to what's
happening here
what's happening here what's going on
what's this energy of this really
we wouldn't be so if they really be big
we wouldn't stand up that we' never and
Rashi says by the way Rashi speaks it
out Rashi says if you read the Rashi
if they were recognized as and They
Isaac in the mitzvah, you wouldn't stand
up. But they're not recognizable here.
Nobody knows them. They don't have such
a reputation. So to them like, you know,
make them feel good.
>> What is that?
>> If they would be asuim here. So it's
here. This whole mitzvah is set up for
an outsider. They're not from this city.
It's a farmer from another city. So they
come as like, who are you? to give a
cover cuz Rashi is saying for a regular
mitzvah you wouldn't stand up for a
mitzvah from a guy who's nick or you
don't stand up
>> and that's like oh
>> these guys are yeah these guys have been
out of the city and it's a total fake
so what's going on what's the energy
yeah so what's the energy of this as
it's like such a shame you don't want to
learn a gimar and be worse so off for it
it's like a shame so now we're in on the
secret hat when we all stood up for that
guy like if he really like it's just nab
like get him to come now I don't want to
sell I don't want to sell the cash I'm
not I don't want to be a salesman so I'm
going say no no we have to like really
show them it's very important
>> yeah mock I can't even say it with a
straight face what does it mean I'm I'm
trying to learn I'm really bothered by
this
>> what does this mean like show so a guy
comes here picture the speech before he
walks into the door's going to walk
>> [laughter]
>> Wow.
[laughter]
>> You're such a nice boy.
>> What's the What's the energy?
>> I'm not really sure [laughter]
was like
>> you like the cash you like.
>> Cash is there's a that says that in he
wouldn't stand up but he's not going to
come next time.
That's what it says.
He won't come next time.
>> So, what's the reality of it? Yeah.
What's happening? What's
>> at first? Like when I first heard it, I
thought we were standing up for the
mitzvah. Like, yeah, that mitzvah is
kash. It's not like for them for their
shame. It's like, yeah, that mitzvah is
like you think it's not. No, that m is
enough to stand up.
>> It's not that like for you that like,
oh, I'm embarrassed. No, that is
>> so.
>> So, what's the energy of that? Cuz
they're not they're not used to what
what are you saying? What's the what's
what are you saying here? Like, if they
know just cuz you're now when I become
an insider, you won't. Let's say I know
your behaviors. I saw you didn't stand
up for him. What are you saying? What
are you
>> pretty sure did not appreciate?
>> I think he did.
>> Oh, he's handling this. Did he's
handling the leg? [laughter]
>> I don't think they'll appreciate that.
as he what do you hold of this cash
>> the cash bothers you it doesn't have to
bother you a cash holding of a cash just
means it bothers me or doesn't when you
read this we do it to make sure they
come next time we give them cover as I
give them so you're not then if you hold
no nice to see you Joshua nice to see

>> Maybe this year. [laughter]
>> Yeah.
>> Josh, you're inviting the whole this
year.
>> Thank you. I think it's on and off every
>> I have to leave to the
There there's a thought ar I want to
share with the that I'm like wondering
is is there room for this following
thought
there's a basic covered you know there's
there's
every single one of the questions we're
asked after 120 is
you treat your friend like a king there
is a den to
every single
now that doesn't exclude that there's an
Indian specifically to be
there's some of there's a every single
is the one of the first questions we're
asked after 120
did you treat your friend as a melo
there's a basic
to be at every single
now there's an extra level
to
you don't stand up for aid but there's a
to every
now
has a basic he's doing a mitzvah serious
it could be certain times where there's
an exclusion the extra cover you give to
a you're in the middle of working
but you're not allowed to express that
coven means there's a real cover that
exists but he's working hold back what
you feel the came in it's like whoa we
should be getting up we're except our
middle work and geneva the basic cover
for a year during a mitzvah you don't
hold back there certain times there'll
be a tour from expressing the cover you
have a certain layer of coverage
is is the is the of that but the cover
that you have for aid. This is what real
and Yehud was saying this. You're not
showing you're doing
>> now because I'm learning I because I'm
working for somebody I would have to
stifle the covet I have the the you
you'll cause him not to come is not why
you're giving cover. You're giving
because he's doing a mitzvah. The is
we're people don't a guy walks in there
to put on films like whoa except I'm
middle of learning maybe I won't get up
I'm in the middle of working for
somebody else I won't get up
>> you're stifling a certain and which is
you could stifle that you don't stand up
for the when you're working your him
your oh my gosh now keep working note to
selfstif
you feel a covet Just don't stand up.
You're middle work in geneva. What
you're feeling, what you want to
express, you can't.
The guy who came for a mitzvah, you're
not let stifle that cover. A yid in the
middle of a mitzvah deserves cover. The
energy to the meeting is not say it's
going to get him not to come. The energy
is that covet to ever stifle. So you're
doing a mitzvah.
>> That's what it means to stifle that
cover. You'll cause bad things. That
covet you're never allowed to stifle.
Aid's doing a mitzvah. You're not
allowed to stifle. That's like an
elementary covet. You can never stifle.
Av you could stifle the cover. The
energy of the conversation is not let's
be of the energy is doing a mitzvah.
We're middle of working. So maybe we
should stifle it. Don't stifle it. The
cover is the cover of a y doing a
mitzvah that that exists. That's real.
This Y's in the middle of a mitzvah.
Hello. Alo is the middle of a mitzvah.
That basic level you don't ever. Now
there are times on
that there'll be a we have to hold in
what we're feeling
>> on this one. Never hold in. There'll be
time there'll be time even the of every
there'll be time to say that is cover.
Not right now. Right now don't do that
extra cover. I'm the basic cover of aid.
The basic cover. So the conversation
before they come is he in the middle of
a mitzvah
you know he's coming from you know he's
come we're not like showing we're not
shallow people like let's show him
something he in the middle of a mitzvah
everybody get up are you crazy now the
say it's true stifle it right now we're
working we can't steal so even though
we're all experiencing something and
there's a cover that's owed to him we're
actually taught that something trumps
that covet even though the covet's
there. So the energy you stood up is
don't stifle the covet of a regular yid.
There'll be time on the extra covet
you'll have to stifle the coven [snorts]
on a regular yid. You don't stifle the
cover of a mitzvah
that mitzvah you should never stifle
that that coven. So the energy is not a
trick. You're standing up to get the
energy. This is what Yehuda and both
said. You're not standing up to get him
to come a You're standing up because
he's involved in a mitzvah and a mitzvah
is a maxim tremendous.
They're not to lose money. These are
so you're working for somebody else.
Your
but the covet is there. The of the
seriousness, the heaviness, the
weightiness of a mitzvah is very very
real. Even when you're not standing up,
it's the question only are you
expressing that which is there. The
comes and I don't stand up. So you don't
have the cover inside your body.
Don't express that. Don't say the
expression of it. The cover we have on
the regular yid to stifle it would be
bad things would happen. Kazal said
don't stifle what you're feeling. Let it
out. Just stand up.
Ras is that that's
I think
but but I think it's
>> also
>> Rashid just says by a guy doing a
mitzvah who's from the city so wouldn't
be mashim so stifle the cover of the the
fact that he's doing a mitzvah
here he's from out of town and it's
going to have bad repercussions don't
stifle the cover that exists of a you're
doing a mitzvah so you're not In
nutshell, you're giving cover like wink
wink wink. You're doing a mitzvah now.
Normal. What?
>> Right. Because you'll stifle it because
you'll stifle the mitzvah. You're
supposed to stifle. There is there's the
respect of a mitzvah here. I'm not
stifling this. It's there is a mitzvah
but working for somebody else would
trump the of mitzvah the geneva of
working because here it will cause them
not to come. So the the covet of the
mitzvah is not trumped by the fact that
you're working because it will have bad
repercussions. So go back to the co
you're doing mitzvah
there's bigger it's too dangerous to not
be right
I want before you leave there's a song's
been singing that I want him to sing for
the I want David to hear this David gra
I want you to hear this song lights
fresh to yes did you hear sing yet
wants her heartman
The main thing Hashem wants is our
heart. He wants us to be passionate, to
be connected to something.
I don't want to be a body without a
soul. I want to I want to function
[music] as somebody connected to my
Yehud. You heard this song yet?
>> Back at it.
>> Oh my gosh. You should hear. Did you
meet Zman light yet?
>> Zman, this is Yehuda. Raise your hand.

days. Beautiful song. [music] I don't
know what I did.
>> Ellie wanted to know the
song.
>> You want I did Sounded like something

>> That's funny.
Not a bad idea.
[music]
>> You know this song?
[music]
>> No.
Yeah, I know. I saw that.
>> Still
heard it.
>> I don't even know if I remember the
live. They have like a bunch of
recordings.
I want to I want to I want to say to the
done with this done I want to I want to
share something David I want to tell you
something I don't mean I'm I'm not going
to I'm not saying this from a tough
place. I'm saying from a place like
means something to me. There are people
that say I'm not so good with names
really. There are people like say like
I'm not like I don't remember I don't
have such I don't look at being good
with names like how good your memory is.
It's not a test of memories. People like
excuse themselves. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm
not so good with names. What's your name
again? Now, I want to say is it takes a
long time to learn all the guys' names
for each other. That's very real. Takes
a while. You're allowed to ask a guy a
few weeks in, "What's your name?" Again,
we're all human. I do want to say that I
care about your name. And your name
matters a lot. I would I don't want to
say this. I would if a rebby called a
guy by his last name and that was his
type, he would never get hired here.
Never. Never. Never. Never. And I think
it's disgraceful to call somebody by
their last name. They deserve a name.
So, what's your name again? Now, I'm not
making it awkward to ask people their
names here. I am saying that it's if you
don't, guys, I'm just not into Oh, you
don't value people so much. I feel bad
saying it's so tough. I think you don't
people don't count. When we value
people, you don't know the guy's name.
You don't know his name. I I feel bad.
We're all human. And sometimes it could
be. He just wasn't. He only was casually
in my life. We're human. I don't say
we're geniuses. We meet somebody once.
If he was of enough, you'd remember
we're human. And I admit that it
happens. You meet somebody once. Should
it be? Could it be if we were on I
suspect like somebody like the lobba, by
the way, reportedly. Now, you could say
this. What a genius he was. Reportedly,
if he met you once, he knew your name
the rest of your life. Reportedly. I
can't say it as a fact. I don't know.
Ask aid. reportedly he met you once the
rest of your life he knew your name. I
believe there could be somebody who's so
moved by Nishamus that you don't forget
his name like wow
>> for the I believe there could be such a
thing reportedly on the labb was that
way did anybody ever hear that about the
rebba
>> I heard about it
>> I heard it on the rebba that if he met
you once for the rest of the history
knew your name
>> that's like a sense of I'm not
>> it's true you've heard this in
>> bezi
by Russ. You ever heard that about the
ra heard that?
>> But I don't I don't want to accept I'm
not trying to shame people.
>> Is there going to be a
>> I don't I but I maybe but I I'm not
saying it ar to shame people cuz we're
he's obviously not. We're human. We're
human. [music]
I want to say that it's worthy of
learning a person's name. Like we're
learning sis of respect to people. A
person's like significant. We met a big
godam god. You remember his name? It's
like whoa. I'm not trying to make shame.
I'm expressing that people are worthy of
knowing their names. It's a big deal. A
guy's worthy of know. So I'm not trying
to shame anybody. I think it's weird a
few months in not to know all the names.
Him. Him him. I don't think you're
right. I happen to like in Yeshua the
last night sometimes a guy speaks. I've
seen this and guys in yeshiva are like
sh and I didn't have shias to that guy.
I love that response as I have seen this
long as the last night a guy speaks and
you see like 50 you could watch people
think like a shucks that's a guy I
should have connected to you're missing
out when you don't have sh when you
don't know the guy's name I promise
you're missing worlds I promise after
120ish
when at the end you hear this guy's
story you'll be like oh gosh the guy who
becomes a billionaire the guy Mamish was
you're like he was by the way was your
classmate. You're like well he became
what? Like shucks. I I shouldn't you
want to rewrite history? Yeah. You want
to go back? Oh, we were good friends.
No, we weren't. I want to express that a
person's a big deal. You might not see
it. And we're human. And I'm not trying
to shame us. I am trying to express that
it's to learn somebody's name, but I
don't ex I don't accept just I'm bad
with names. That's like a narrative.
People I'm just bad with you're not bad
with names. cuz you don't value people
and you're a le or not.
>> You're
can't help it. The guy doesn't see why
he's valuable. I don't I don't There
could be an honesty to that. I don't see
that people are so valuable. Okay. Okay.
I hear I'm just expressing that it's
worthy of knowing people's names. That
it really is worthy of knowing people's
names. That people are very valuable. I
think if we learned this like
if we learned how valuable people are,
we would know their name. Getting the
name could also help us. A person is a
name. I promise he's a name. He's
somebody worthy of knowing. I just don't
accept the narrative. Now, somebody can
catch me. Kos, you forgot his name. You
don't value him enough. You're probably
right. Now, guys, should that's just my
stupidity.
I don't accept Josh. Like, I'm not good
with names.
Now, that just means that you mean you
don't really value people. What is Who
is that guy? Right. I hear I hear what
you're saying. Right. I'm really here
and it's not like it's not a it's not a
shameful. We're just trying. But there's
a sa people are really have people have
a lot. It's not a pretend. It's not like
a cute thing. This place is a bastion of
cover. We just learned this morning a
we're talking about something. This is
the afternoon. But this place is a
bastion of covenant. People are worthy
of knowing their names. I like that Gabe
wrote a song and this Yeshiva, heaven
knows my name. My story counts. No, I
mean songs of a place come from a place.
A place impacts. The whole world took
this song. Heaven knows my name. People
matter. They have a name. Like really
matter. Their story matters. Their
situation matters. Don't run over
people. I'm asking find out people's
name at a basic level cuz I promise he
matters. It's a big thing. [music] You
meet for a minute Z shalom Z. I'm not
it's just the truth. You meet David Gau
people. People people Joshua people mean
something. I'm not trying to I'm we're
all human
mish or is just new here. Mish mish just
[music] came. It's a big thing. Zevi is
new. You'll all hear Zevi. The whole
world will know his name.
The two Ezis. The two Rebzi and Schla.
Are you into that, mayor? When people
say I'm not into I'm not good with
names.
>> It's not It's not a thing. I'm not good
with names.
>> Yeah. I'm not good names. I don't think
people count. I hear I hear just to
understand what you're saying. I'm not
good with name just means that it's hard
for me to value people. Okay. I I'm I
don't mean to be harsh like a mean guy,
but just like when I'm not good with
names, it's not like a good memory.
>> If you don't memorize like the if you
don't know all the president United
States, I don't give a about it. I
don't care. It's not it's not relevant
to me.
>> Don't make don't make it like I'm not
good with names. I'm not so I just don't
I'm sorry. I'm just not People even said
I'm so sorry. I'm not good with names.
What's your name? But they really say I
I don't really care about you. I'm not
tangling on you. I like honesty.
I I totally but that's that's just what
I'm hearing. I'm not so good with names.
It didn't register. I And trust me, I
ask people I will ask guys here, remind
me your [music] name.
>> I really want to learn that. It means I
don't know you yet. It means I don't
know how great you are. I'm not like I'm
not shaming that.
>> Telling a guy. It's true.
>> Folks, I don't know him yet. It's not
It's not a shame to say I really didn't
meet you yet. Eat was upsetting me early
in our friendship. I didn't know your
name. You were right. But it's not
because you're right. You're right. When
you're upset, you don't remember my
name. And it wasn't because you're not
the best in the world. And by the way,
you can't be pretend. We meet people.
We're not in a second. You're the best
in the world. But if a guy doesn't know
your name, it means something.
>> Yeah. Not saying so. It's not like, oh,
I'm so sorry. And it's not a timer.
as he's walking out. I said, "Thank
him." I'll see what's his name.
>> He has
>> I'm not trying to be ripping and I'm not
saying it's it means some and we're all
human and we don't every guy we see Oh
my gosh. That's why Ari
see bedazzled everybody. I don't know
him. I don't know him. It's fine. It
doesn't speak bad on him. It doesn't
speak bad on you. I'm just saying that
learn the guy, get to know this. People
are worthy of names. They're worthy of
seeing. They're worthy of knowing. I see
an environment where people know their
names is an environment where people
count. They matter. Revei and I spoke
about Camp Monk. Revei was in a camp.
People had a big space because there was
somebody who valued everybody there. He
like knew their history, their story. I
do a lot of trivia in Yeshiva. I'll be
honest. I actually like our guys. I I
like it's like fun for me. This guy's
from Houston because people's stories
matter. So I like sharing. It's not a
trick like this way. If we do trivia,
people value guys. I actually like the
guys. So I'm just going to let out my
life and I play trivia. They're from
Boka whose cousin's brother was from
Bokeh. To me, these things matter. Reank
and Campa and Camp Monk would say over
guys history. guys would have stories
about the guys because he really cared
about them. There's a big ladal for
anybody who's a Met fan. The Mets have
an announcer, a Jew, who was the
announcer since season 1, since 1962.
He doesn't just know his name's Howie
Rose. He's here. He doesn't just know
the Mets history, he actually makes the
history.
He actually he doesn't just know the
history. He makes the history because
it's valuable to every player ever
played like three games. He's like,
"Remember Butch Husky? He played dy just
died a former med. The reason anybody
knows is cuz Harry Rose cares about it.
It matters to him and he gives it
things work like that. I want to express
that theor of it's
we do is Hashem cares about all our
activities. That's just the truth.
Hashem cares about we actually are
significant. The main thing I would say
about Den that hits me I'm not afraid.
Hashem likes me. Not afraid. It's not
it's not oh my gosh our activities are
significant. That's the main thing that
hits me. We're significant. It's like
pretty wild. There's like somebody who
like tracks us, like cares about us.
We're very significant. People are
significant. Please don't say if you
forget names that don't shame to ask a
guy name. It's not embarrassing to say I
don't know you yet. Not embarrassing
know you.
>> Well, I want to know you. Please tell me
your name. I might ask you three more
times, but I really want to know you.
>> I don't want to know.
>> What?
>> What happens if I don't?
>> You're mistaken. You're mistaken. Then
you're underestimating
then you're underestimating what a Y is
a Y's is a big thing. I like in yeshiva
Josh there are moments in yeshiva that
people we overlook. I promised the last
night this happened. A guy you a lot of
people overlook spoke and the whole
place like jaw drops and it's like shoot
we we missed a guy who's like huge.
There's a guy whose was last night
yeshiva an alltime great yeshiva giddy
whisman. We wisman. He's an all-time
great and the people that know him are
amazed by him. He's a he's quiet. He's
very thought out guy. He spoke the last
night. I watched people in the crowd. He
spoke lowly. I better leave. A lot of
people in the crowd were like shoot that
I didn't like get to know him like oh my
gosh. I should I like that's a truth.
It's a truth. So I'm asking the inquire
somebody's name. It's not it's not bad
that you didn't know his name. You had
no reason. You didn't know him. But
inquire, learn names. Don't settle for
this statement like I'm not good with
names.
People count. You could say you don't
seek Shivas to people. I hear
>> what
number he knew. He knew but he said I
can't remember. There's no there's no
meaning but the number I don't know. He
didn't he couldn't remember any.
>> I like that.
>> That makes sense. It didn't matter.
>> I'm happy to
show
>> what about like after 10 times I keep
asking the guy name
just embarrassing. I'm basically telling
you I don't care about you.
>> I don't Why are you asking him again?
No, but I don't ask you to tell. I'm ask
cuz I do care. I want to get to know
you. Trust me, that first significant
thing that blows you away. The guy
dominates in the game all of a sudden
you never forget his name. So it means I
didn't see yet. That's not embarrassing.
10 times takes time to know each other,
to see things. I'm not pretending. We're
not bad cuz I didn't see anything that
blew me away. I'm refreshing.
>> I better get basically saying Kayla, you
need to be on time. And he's absolutely
right. Okay. Thank you. We're going to
dab now. Thank you. Say thank you. Thank
you.
