hi welcome to the par and five where in
5 minutes we try to give you a thought
on the para that will hopefully be
meaningful for you and for your loved
ones uh Paras kukas you know pasas kukas
is a transitional para there are a
number of transitional paros in the
Torah right so Paras hukas basically
finishes at the end of the 40 years
right
came out of
MIM I got the Torah got the Torah again
we built the mishkan we put the mishkan
up we set up the M we go through all the
events that have happened and then
nothing for 38 years after the decree
was made that they would all dry die in
the desert that's it nowas it picks up
in the 40th year with the death of
Miriam and the bear and everything that
goes on over there and we know the whole
story
and uh there's one curious story and
that is the following the people begin
to complain about the m m m mun 40 years
all we get to eat is mun right now of
course M cans like anything you want so
it really shouldn't be a point of
contention but there's a bigger question
in that and that is okay you're about to
go into
ell you'll never see a piece of M again
in your life now you're complaining
about
it and uh it's so interesting twice in
the
Torah sa for midbar they complain about
the man in at the beginning of the 40
years and in hukas at the end of the 40
years the 38 years in between they
didn't say
anything when did they complain in just
as they were about to go into they
already began their March in terel they
were just days
away you're complaining about the money
you'll never see money again in your
life and then for 40 years not a word
about the money and now when they're
finally getting ready to march in and
they're about to go into ell again
they're complaining about the
man that's strange the complaints that
they had about the man is really pretty
dramatic because they were living in the
midbar
and they were eating M surrounded by the
anod mosu with rays of light shining out
of his face yeah the be of Miriam
rolling along with
them and we able to live this now we
know that if you step out a line you get
zapped right away the misson him the
missim soon as they complained they got
zapped so okay and that's living on this
level now you want me to go into AEL and
be a
farmer and eat regular food B
TAA I don't know if I can do that I
don't know if I can handle eating
regular meat now they had meat in the
midbar but they can only bring it as a
corbon schlam so they were eating it
kadha it was also it was cim but to eat
BOS for regular food and still maintain
the same level of kadha can I do
that and that's right when they were in
the midw they asked for meat and they
couldn't do it and they
died and so over here they again they're
about to go in and they say how are we
going to live like normal people that's
what was frightening
them because the purpose of the midbar
of the journey is to be able to reach
those Heights of being in the m and then
continue them in your own personal life
and that's really the idea of sheris
isn't it sheris is that we spend seven
weeks outside of our house in a Suka in
this world and not in this world and
then we have one last day where we have
to do it all again inside of our home to
take all of that power fromer and sukus
and bring it into our house that's what
the Jews were afraid of having to do but
that's the obligation that that we have
to accomplish in our own
lives good chabas
