the vision says the following says you'll live simple understanding of this was the care that needed to be placed in preserving our attitude of sanctity of holiness of awe of reverence for the holy mishkan for the holy of holies the quran and the vietnam even though they had access even though they were insiders they still had to act with a sense of awe however the vision of sarah the holy imra khaim understands a little bit differently he says dashim is a remez kodashikatsu what is the holy holy of our lives shabbos viantif shabbas and young are the holy and holy of our lives and what we look forward to what we count down to it is the holy of holies mace when you come into shabbas and yantra you can't collapse out of exhaustion when you come into shabbos and yantef you cannot let down your guard it's not time to let go it's not time to pass out it's not time to rush a meal it's not time to be disconnected we don't come in commace you don't come in dead exhausted collapsing you come into shabbat alive enthusiastic zealous and with zeal you save your best for shabbas and yantef you don't save your best for work and then you come into your family in shabbas and yantef like a corpse and collapse but you save your best with you you have to be alive and you cannot be dead when you come into the holy of holies the holy of holies of our lives are shabbos and yantif that is when it's not competing for our time and attention it's not competing for our focus shabbos we are disconnected so we can connect to what matters to hashem to our family and to ourselves and we have to do it with the sense of we have to do with the sense of being alive number two the helicopter the greatness of shalom salaam says the following that the three things are parasha about midbar again if you're not listening about midbar it's still relevant for turning friday in the air of shabbos for getting ready psyched and pumped for shabbos the opening major shown by midbar the fourth book of the torah is that the torah is acquired through these three things water fire and the desert in the slum arabah says these three things this formula fire water and desert yes kodesh these are the three ingredients this is the magic winning formula for how to experience shabbos showers the college of shabbos is to attach ourselves to feel the presence to immerse ourselves with hashem as it says beneath israel shabbos is the yehud room that we have with hashem we celebrate we party we live all week long with the whole world we are connected we're watching we're listening we're being watched and we're being listened to but shabbos is private affair it's a private conversation it's an intimate rendezvous it's just between him and us it's marriage it's marriage this is the marriage bedroom this is the room um the positive components the positive aspects the more the boundaries be careful don't violate we observe by by abstaining from doing creative labor so zachary and sham are saying normally a human being can't say two things at once we can't say two things that contradict or complement simultaneously you can only say one word at a time but hashem hashem said them both simultaneously meaning that they are equally important in understanding what shabbos is about or the positive commandments they represent our love of hashem or are the negative what we must avoid there are the boundaries that represent feeling a sense of oh healthy also has a sense of bamidbar what does it mean by midbar the midbar is a barren desert a wasteland what does it mean that shabbos is a component of a midbar what midbar we have wine and we have delicacies and we have delicious challah and we have games and we have zemiros what kind of midbar kind of desert it doesn't mean that shabbos you need to be hungry and thirsty like you're stuck in a desert it means mesen atsumo kamidbar we have to see ourselves and place ourselves and turn ourselves into a minbar shama vathalas atsmob as ko yeshuso when you come into shabbas with an ego when you come into shabbos within a sense of i when you come to shabbat it's all about you you can have friction you're gonna have conflict the shabbos meal will be filled with shabbos fights and conflict and battle and tension you have to make some atsuma bamidbar come into shabbos you wipe this lake clean like a desert is barren like a desert is a place that is not yet planted a desert is blank slate we have to wipe ourselves get rid of that ego get rid of that arrogance get rid of that sense of i get rid of that power play get rid of that insistence that our way or the highway or that we have all the answers the bashamtv understood if a person expires they leave this world on earth shabbos it's a positive sign of wondering what when you schedule your own death can you ask the doctors to please let you go on an arab shabbos does the person have free will do we have choice when we die allah doesn't mean we physically die we physically expire may spare shabbos means that we kill the ego on arab shabbos mace that ego that i that arrogance that envy we kill it and we become a midbar a blank slate start again fresh and clean we're able to come into shabbos a blank clean slate in our relationships we start again in our dreams and aspirations for shabbos we start again in our attitude we don't impose our sense of i we start again all of the kind may spare shabbos was a similar economist what a semen what a great way to go into shabbos to pause to take that deep breath to put on the shabbos upon him and to kill the eye the ego to say i'm going to come humbly i don't have to have all the answers i don't have to monopolize the conversation i don't have to sing the loudest it doesn't have to be about me if you want to connect and attach yourself to hashem and to others it begins with humility and modesty and seeing ourselves as a midbar as basham said the biggest obstacle between us and god is that tug of war between us and god who's in charge who's in control is it him or is it us who is it who is it to be on fire and fire always stretches up the flame always flickers up you got to be on fire water humble modest water always flows down you call yehudi vekas should be so we can tap into the beauty of shabbos we can be transformed and elevated by shabbos we can come into the yanta of matantora be on fire light yourself on fire take responsible responsibility and ownership of being on fire we could be on fire flame flicker up always striving yearning no matter which way you point the candle always going up we could be water water always flows to the lowest place humble and modest and a desert kill the anohi mesa of shabbos a mace kill that ego that that sense of arrogance that i simon you fellow it'll serve you well it'll be a great synonym for the type of peaceful shabbos you'll have beautiful shabbos you'll have and serene shabbos you'll have an inspiring holy shabbos you'll have so
