good morning everybody this is rabbi
from goldberg with rabbi avi kahan
interrupting ours and your whole hamoid
in order to offer a second update on the
silverberg
aguna case we interrupt our
simcasiantifar moeid and your hola mode
because this is such a critical critical
issue and unfortunately there are
misconceptions lies distortions
manipulations that are being spread and
shared and we feel in a christ we feel
an obligation a responsibility to clear
the record
and as well to offer some insight to
take advantage of the opportunity
to learn over this khalamoid with a real
expert ravikahan
a great dai and somebody who's been very
very involved and a lot of experience
in dinai torah in based in and as a rav
to help us understand the system as a
whole so i want to offer a very quick
update
on where we are and then a conversation
with rav khan about
the system as a whole so that all
particularly those who've never had
experience with it
can have a better understanding again if
khan is my dear friend the rob of kyle
new city
adai and the founder of the bayes denver
hadin
and we're so grateful and honored of
khan that you are joining us
yet again so despite rumors that the get
was given in the silverberg case it has
absolutely not been given
and despite rumors that the serum has
been lifted against adam silverberg
that is also a fallacy it's also
entirely incorrect
and untrue your pressure the efforts of
those who attended the rallies
did have an impact it brought own to the
table
and it brought on to a conversation and
negotiation
that for two years there's been an
effort to mediate for two years there's
been an effort
to bring him to bazin and to bring him
with various mediators
robotim and lay people that never came
to fruition but because of you
those who placed pressure and those who
shined the spotlight online on social
media
and who showed up and raised your voice
in person
for the first time it brought around to
a conversation aaron came to the mahonda
and signed the tiberian signed a binding
arbitration
that he was willing to undergo a
negotiation unfortunately
the person representing aaron his toeing
spoke to the head of the mahonda
baysden misrepresented some things and
the macholar put out a letter that you
may have seen
because arun side has been sharing it
that declared that the
seraph has been lifted that the seraph
has been removed because of aaron's now
new willingness to participate however
has clarified that that it was a mistake
that unfortunately they were misled
and they've issued and they're issuing a
new letter i was part of a conference
call
on the first day of holland yesterday
morning with the
head of the secretary of the mahonda
radesdan together with the imminent of
the basin of america
and the others and they issued the
following text which will appear on
their letterhead
immediately after yantif sadvaram they
want to clarify
i'm reading to you now from the mahonda
based
regarding the letter that came out uh
from us regarding
adin with varun bin aaron zimmer bregman
is
kunslinger regarding the matter between
aaron zilberberg and dvorah
all we wanted to do is say that our own
has signed a binding arbitration that he
was willing
to engage our based in s
everything else written there was done
so mistakenly
especially because we don't have
knowledge about the rest of the dispute
about this conflict
so therefore the letter should not be
used to say anything other than the fact
that
aaron is willing to go to based in
vaughan
and we call on both sides to pursue the
matter with peace with honor and to both
satisfaction um
and critically they conclude the letter
that it should be concluded in a based
in
which is acceptable to both sides so
again
no get has been given no binding
arbitration has been agreed to by both
sides
because there is a dispute how the
binding arbitration should work what the
terms are to agree
so the serve remains in place the basis
of america has confirmed the server
remains in place
has confirmed that the seraph remains in
place
arun is masare vladin he has not
participated in a based in process
regarding the giving of the get and
because of that we need to continue the
pressure
your pressure the spotlight of social
media free devorah
want us to continue all of us have to
continue we not only have a heter
arguably we have we have an obligation
and a responsibility
there's a man with a sailor of against
him who refuses to cooperate and giving
his wife a get
and we must continue to apply the
pressure there are conversations and
there are negotiations and there's a
possibility
of mediation and all of it please god
will continue and we'll continue
to success but what brought us to this
point has been the pressure
and that social pressure must continue
aaron is currently in lakewood
for yanta for pesach there will be a
rally outside where aaron is staying
for yantef where the details will be
shortly coming
but we call on all those who can attend
the rally very soon
in lakewood to continue to apply the
pressure on our own
to participate and to do the right thing
davota deserves it
family deserves it she deserves to move
on and we call upon everyone
so again the get has not been given
binding arbitration starbearing has not
been signed by both sides they have not
decided on a venue or a place for a
hearing it's in this
it's all uh untruths that have been told
um
she is not yet satisfied with the terms
although please god they can be
uh they can be worked out and most
importantly the serve against our
remains in place confirmed by both the
based in
of america who issued the serve and by
muhammad
based in as well sort of khan we turn to
you what does it mean how does a seraph
get placed against somebody
and how is this removed and what are
star baron
and if the fact that one side has signed
them does that mean
that now they've turned the tables and
the other is the guilty party
so good night eric goldberg those are
all great questions
and let's see how much time we have um
we'll start from what a starburst is
a starburst in english is an arbitration
agreement
which means that under the laws of most
states in the united states of america
two parties are allowed to decide to
have an alternative dispute resolution
meaning that they have a dispute they
don't want to go to court to take care
of it
they're allowed to hire a third party
person agree that this
third party person could take over
whatever a judge could preside on
of course there are different caveats in
every state what arbit what the law of
arbitration governs
what you're allowed to what types of
dispute you're allowed to take to
arbitration but it's a general rule most
disputes you allow to take arbitration
you have to sign
so barack should we live in america
america has such laws and therefore
besides allowed to exist
nowadays because people all had a sign
that they're going to follow whatever
business says
and that's what the what the terminology
style is an arbitration agreement means
um i think it's important to understand
why we're in halacha
does it come in that means there are
those that believe i've seen this
very often written i've seen this posted
on certain blogs
that starbursts are meant for liars that
means
people are coming in front of the best
in bezen has to make sure that they're
not wasting their time and getting here
for a few weeks to hold the entire and
then make a ruling and everyone's just
going to walk away not listening
so besides because they're scared that
people are lying and people are not
going to keep what they say they force
people to sign a document
which is going to make them keep what
best in rules um
the police can seem to believe not like
that they believe that starburst is
something mandated from the torah
and our makadish in parish to shape them
he discusses this when he
when he brings the magilta that mahilton
says in the past
everyone should have shayfim judges
which is bazdan and shaitam and
enforcers
so it could be in the times of the
tyrant forces were actual policemen
every bezen had people who would enforce
go into people's houses and remove
possessions
based on bazon's sack says that if you
don't have shaytar
if you don't have any way to enforce the
sack you don't have the pheasant doesn't
exist
there's no mitsu to keep us then there's
no mitzvah to go to bed and if you can't
enforce
and many police can quote this arahima
coalition they say therefore veterans
cannot enforce peasant doesn't exist
even if both people promise they're
going to keep what says doesn't does not
exist that they cannot enforce in barak
hashem we live in the media
that has arbitration laws so basin
adapted arbitration laws
and said that people should sign and
that gives us but without shaytan
doesn't doesn't exist even if we believe
everyone's going to keep what is going
to say
and i think that's very very important
though absolutely
so the fact that a basin is essentially
functioning as a civil binding
arbitration
and just like you can choose a secular
arbitrator the parties can choose based
in as the binding arbitration
and then they're bound by civil law to
follow through on what the basin says
so explain to us the process of husbands
so devoto went to the basement of
america and she said
i'd like a din total with my husband to
for him to have to give a get
we're civilly divorced the civil divorce
is final and concluded we're living
separate and apart
we have reconcilable differences and he
refuses to give a get they met with a
masada kitten in south florida and he
refused to give the get and they
attempted other efforts and refused to
give it again
so she went to the basement of america
the base in america sent three asmanas
three subpoenas or invitations to
participate in based in to explain his
side of the story why he doesn't think
he has to give the get
he ignored all three and they therefore
consider it to be messiah
within they apply to syria against them
could you explain what is a serious and
what are the consequences of the fact
that they applied to syrup
and then how does the syrup get uplifted
if he went to an altogether different
basin now
and he signed binding arbitration with a
different based then
without even responding to the original
base that placed the serum
is there even a havamina why would
anyone think that would remove the soup
so these are such great topics but
before we jump into that topic
i want to i think i think it's important
to start with another question that's
going to help us understand
the topic of azerbaijan ciros is why all
together go to beds and for a gap
it means what did what did devorah want
when she went to the basin and she said
please invite send the hazmat please
invite aaron to come to the best
because that's the english type of a
definition of
um what was she asking what did you want
to hear what was it was just an
appointment for a guest what was what
was the hazmat being sent out what did i
think he was receiving so there isn't
much like you to go to bed and forget
the mission in the beginning of
sanhedrin says that gifting is vishlesha
that when you
sit over git then you should have three
people many of the reshaynam
and the majority of bahrain and believe
that that's only a discussion when a
husband doesn't want to give a get or a
wife doesn't want to take a guess it
means a regular get you don't need three
people we actually do it it's a humra
we usually have a bed when we do a get
um but the mishna when the mishnah was
referencing that three people should sit
by again that's a get
that's being done against somebody's
will the basal levy even basically says
that anytime you do something against
somebody else's will the best has to be
the one who decides that that could be
done
and it's it's very very important so
therefore either if we're forcing a man
to give a get or forcing a lady to
receive a gap basically he says the same
thing if you want to
force a lady to take a get you need a
bezel to make that decision
and beznin has to be the one who decides
that so if a couple consensually just
wants to get divorced
the husband and wife can meet at the
best and to again they're usually the
ones who do the get
when they want to have a discussion when
one party doesn't want to give a get
then they need to do it in front of the
best thing now i think this is very very
important to know
why in the world should a husband not
want to give a get why is there ever
hazal's eyes at the entire a purpose to
have an entire to discuss
and i think the answer is very simple
even though it's not discussed in the
gemara explicitly but it's hinted
there are certain husbands who love
their wives and i think it's very very
natural because i'll understood that
that there's certain times that the
marriage is going to be
that the husband leaves the marriage
they institute aksuba for that reason
the mission says could they should i
take caliban of lagarch it shouldn't be
easy
for a man to give his wife a divorce so
they said they have to pick suba
remissions of the opinion that you might
not have to pick super now that the this
is
him that's a harem to divorce your wife
paul karakov you know that enforcer so
you might not have to pick subaru unless
she brings that in
in in through the thought process but
there are certain cases where the wives
leave where the wife leaves the marriage
which i think is important to discuss
and certain husbands want to still
pursue and work on their marriage
that's one reason that a husband doesn't
want to give a gap another reason is
because he wants to negotiate
which i i want to discuss that for two
three minutes and then we'll get back to
the first one
uh there is a trebuchet that even though
the rashball argues on it
rebelliash was a harindell of rocco who
was known to be one of the leaders in
heir to sorrow
in evan ezzar and in gitan specifically
he sat on the best in ramanuth and a lot
of the protocols that the best i
wouldn't use until
that if somebody wants to make a tanai
before he gives the gut
for example he's one of those people out
of force to give a get
whatever that means we'll explain that
he one he's one of the people you're
allowed to force and they're about to
beat him up
and right before they beat him up to
give the guy he says look i want to give
the guest i just want her to do a b and
c first
the marston doesn't really go into
detail what a b and c is but i wanted to
do an a b and c
first the maharaja damn pascans that if
a b and c is normal
which again is very debatable what
normal means but if what he's asking is
normal
you're not allowed to force him to give
the gut even if he's one of those people
you're a lot of force
and if you force him to give him get
before she does this a b
and c the get's not a good gap so now we
have
that we have two precedents in halo not
to give a get one
when the husband still wants to stay
married he's pursuing he's running after
shalom bayes he's speaking to everybody
and to the maharashtra which is
debatable what the maharashtra means and
we'll speak about it later
um then he wants to he wants her to do
something before he gives the guy
those are the two two cases where so
therefore we go to besdon
hey to see is this marriage still
pursuable
is this still attainable does this have
any havamina still working out
we'll discuss how besides makes that
decision and base if the husband says i
want to give a gift i just want to see
my children
i want to give the guest i just want to
settle the super first i want to give
the gut i want to discuss the
properties are those considered normal
to do before you give a guess
those are the two discussions that i
bought them in the play scheme and i
think every
entire in eritrea that happens over
kitten is this discussion
the husband or the wife so go back to
reason number one
so and let's apply it to our real case
that we're with right now when a couple
has
where they're living separately and a
civil divorce is in place so you can't
claim you're going to continue to pursue
shell and bias you're not going to go
for counseling
you are civilly divorced the wife says
absolutely not
based on his pattern of behavior based
on his character based on our
experiences
there is no future i do not and refuse
to be married to this man
so we're living separately we've divided
our lives we have a civil divorce in
place
and you are you the husband are doing
certain things in your lifestyle
which make it clear as well that you've
moved on that you no longer have a
loyalty or fidelity you've moved on
so is is there even a deal is there even
a discussion that needs to take place to
happen
in other words once the wife says there
is no possibility of shell and bias
what's left for the based in to evaluate
to determine
if they could have shalom bias are they
going to try to convince her are they
going to try to coerce her
are they going to tell her too bad you
have to wait a little bit longer
i mean if the wife says i'm out i'm done
there's no marriage here
and it takes two to tango can a basin
have her interest
more in mind than she has for herself or
can a bayesian force her to try to
pursue a shell and bias that she knows
doesn't exist
what's even left to hear in such a case
so
this question is probably the hottest
question of the season i think that
everyone's discussing
what does doesn't have to do because
we're discussing sean bias
and i think it's such an important topic
and if i if if we could discuss this
topic for a couple of minutes i think
we'll shed a light a lot a lot on the
situation
the mishna discusses two different
personalities of people
that we obligate to give a gut one the
mission says
these are the people we force to give a
get and the mission of lists of
different
works that people do different
personalities the way people act
and the mishna kidarka bhaktis is very
very cryptic
it doesn't discuss a lot the gemara
discusses more and then they reshame him
until the modern day ahrenum
discuss even more different
personalities so for example addiction
might have not existed
in the times of ghazal we don't even
find and discuss so much the brain
you know or mental illness i think the
brain is referenced once in the whole
chasse
the gemara and yavamas where somebody
says the the opposing
says it appears to me you don't have a
brain in your skull
but the brain is not really mentioned
now we know a lot about mental illness
we have to
try to understand how hazal would
understand mental illness and they
discuss all these people that you're a
lot of force to give a gut
so the rambam asks a contradiction the
mishna says
and the gemara says clearly that a get
has to be given consensually the husband
has to want to give over the get
if he doesn't want to give over the get
then the get is actually not a get what
creates a get for being a guest and not
being just a piece of paper
the gek is created by the husband's want
to write this gut
that means it's very interesting and i
don't want to go too much of a tangible
cause getting
but it is a fascinating picture of their
blesser that i think is worthwhile to be
known
the period of blessing says there are
six people who scream so loudly
during something in this world that
their voice goes from one side of the
world to the other side of the world but
nobody could hear it except the kadhi
baruch that's how loud it is
one of them is a lady when she gives
birth one of them is a
snake when he crawls between two rocks
to shut his skin
there's a cold that goes out says the
pyramid bloods are so loud
and one is a lady when she receives her
gap the prick of blood says when the
lady receives her get there's some
scream i i've seen a lot of gifts and
i've never heard screaming i've seen
crying
but there's a scream that only akhadis
baruch who could hear and that khreem
asked in the picture of the laws what
about the guy
he's also giving you get i've seen many
guys during it and they're they're just
as emotional as the wives
sometimes even more emotional it's very
interesting to realize sometimes even
more emotional
wears their cry because broccoli doesn't
listen to them and the explanation that
allah give
is based on a very interesting rabbarak
bear rabarak baron who sit in the safer
birkish mulangitan
brings a hashgoff at least nine times in
the safer from his rabbi raphael he
brings it down for mrs allen meltzer
for bulkhanovasimen from himself
sometimes
a certain finish which is very important
and the way he brings down the finish is
by asking a contradiction
is that whenever you make a messenger to
do anything the messenger has to be
obligated or have access to the same
thing you could
so for example someone wants a messenger
to build hisoka for him
he might have to be a year to build a
suk according to some reshainam you want
a messenger to be makavich a lady to
send a shli after being a kadish lady it
has to be a yid
the wife wants to send the messenger to
accept the get for her
it has to be a good dream the gosh says
when the husband sends a messenger he's
allowed to send an evid
he's allowed to send an evidence to be
mcgowarish's wife to give a divorce to
his wife
and roberto asked that by conducion
nowhere it says that you're allowed to
send an evidence to be makadish your
wife or she's allowed us on the evidence
to receive the condition
how come by git and the man is allowed
to send the evidence but the lady cannot
send the effort to receive it
arabic says it he says it's a big
mistake to think that the husband is
divorcing his wife
a husband doesn't divorce his wife at
all a husband marries his wife he
doesn't divorce her
the gut divorces his wife the husband
just has to provide
for her the get the divorce is happening
through the get
being received by the lady therefore the
husband's not divorcing why so he could
send that evid to bring her over the gap
because the get the garrish and the
separation the closure is happening with
the get
and the acceptance of it the giving it
is just to create the shema just to
create the actual get without the
husband's consent
you can't create a get so a husband
doesn't lose
as much as the wife is losing by again
the wife is getting divorced the benefit
says the husband's still married to the
wife after the divorce
there's a puss in the basal alta salim
that a husband has to support his grusha
his wife who's divorced means for the
husband she's still they're still
married after
the husband's now allowed to marry a
second wife he'll allow mary's second
wife now the husband has two wives
one wife who he's not married to one
wife who he is married to the wife gets
fully divorced she's allowed to go marry
somebody else
the divorce is happening to the wife not
to the husband which i think is very
very important
to understand and that's what there's
only a cull that leaves from the ladies
from from the lady's mouth
and therefore the rambam asks a question
if the creation of the get happens
because the husband
has la shma and the husband is giving
his consent how are you ever allowed to
force a husband to give a guy
which is i think a great question
because on social media people are
writing if you force the guts not a good
gut something writing if you force it is
and people are quoting different sources
so the rambam explains beautifully and
the rambam
whatever his proof is it's very
debatable what the rambam's proof is
but the ram says that he knows that
every yid
deep down is a good person every year
wants to be a good person
it's a gemaran brochure the kimhara says
that um
sandura used to say before after he
finished davening that hashem you know
that it's
with science every kid wants to do the
right thing um
every year the ramen says we know every
year wants to do the right thing
and every subconscious which is there in
the summer was created with the torah
and therefore if the terror says that
he's forced to give a get means he deep
down wants to give a gap
he just is not mindful enough to his
feelings and he has some types of
some type of personality disorder which
is telling him that it's okay not to
give his wife a god
even if he's saying he wants shalom bias
and therefore such a person around them
says
you're allowed to beat him till you get
through to him you're allowed to give
him muscle you let it talk to him you're
allowed to protest you allowed to beat
him till you get through because we know
deep down
he wants to do it and he has a
personality disorder it's very
interesting
the ramen doesn't say this but the
gemara and barack
doesn't quote that ghost is what creates
this decision not to give the get
but it seems like that's what the gemara
says also so people have a lot of
reasons why not to give the gut they
have a personality disorder yatzahara
bad advice but it's not really them we
don't have a havamina
that any person who's not getting yet
deep down is bad because we would have
such a hard amino that we wouldn't be
able to ask the person to give a gut
we have to believe that that's practical
so bring it back to the practical for a
second so therefore
the rallies the protests the social
media momentum
all of it is not if our own chooses or
if someone were to choose to give a get
as a result of that
doesn't turn into a get move so it's not
a course to force get which would
invalidate it
it is the world in other words don't
protest against our own because you
dislike him
protest because you love him and because
you want to get him to do what he knows
he really wants to do
this is such an important important idea
because there's those who've been saying
i can't do that to a fellow jew we're
embarrassing we're humiliating we're
shaming
him his family i i can't do that and the
answer is that's hate
it's hate it's hate to not protest
because to protest to rally is to speak
to the pintalie the neshama inside the
person and say
we know what you really want to do more
than you know and we're going to try to
remove the barriers and peel back the
layers
and get to the core of who you are which
is someone who wants to do the right
thing so i want to go back to
just another practical can i can i cry
for one second yeah please
i i just i want to bring it to a close
because i think people are going to be
very critical to this point
this is where the basal levy learns up
from the gemara that bezon makes this
decision
because who gets to the side of who's
elisha kai from the haiti
and this is where i wanted this because
why do we need betterment for this at
all who
the missional lists off who's able to
create which means who has a personality
disorder that deep down they want to
give a get and they think
they actually think that they don't want
to give it and who's that person that
you have to get through
and who's that person you're allowed to
scream and also i think a question that
we have to ask
is since when does the terrorists say
screaming helps like why is that the
hashikofa
why why is that what the rambam says
kyphon i say force him
hit him like shouldn't we talk to him
shouldn't we have a conversation with
him first
i think that's very very important to to
address
why we jump to protest why don't why
they're not things that are done first
are the things that are done first we
should explain
but here's where the base of lady says
that bezen has to be the one to make
that decision
and there's a macholicus wine this is
very very important there are those that
say and this is
i think so important for the for the
hamlet to understand
there's another mishna that discusses
people who you know are forced to give
again
these are the people that are obligated
to give a gap and the reshannam among
them rabbenutam
asked a question many were shannon asked
this question
deep down what does this guy want does
he want to give get or does he want to
not give
a gap because the regen clearly said
that somebody who's highest to give a
gap and you beat him
the guess is not a good guy you let it
hide your light incentivize him says
herbert
you let it tell him not to come to shul
you're allowed to say you're not going
to give him you're allowed to actually
protest you don't bury
it could be in certain cases you don't
bury their craving you don't mild their
children
many not many macholics what do you do
when somebody reaches the level but
the resham asks deep down who is this
person if he wants to give a gap let's
beat him if he doesn't want to give it
get don't
and the reaching say something beautiful
it's a tree with sarosh rabbini time
many restraining our master
like this the say there are certain
people
let's say this guy is not giving a gap
because he actually loves his wife
and it's horrific i've sat at many many
many such meetings
and we have to be very very sensitive to
it a guy comes in and he did something
wrong
and it could be the reason he was
capable of doing something wrong is
because he already has a personality
disorder
he already thinks it was okay for him to
do something wrong i mean the bellatonia
many swarm of goldberg we know this
say that he could only do something
wrong when they make a mistake and they
think they're capable to do something
wrong
so this guy is there he's doing these
things wrong and now he comes he says i
want to do chuva
i mean we would accept person into the
room we would say come on let's talk to
us let's do chuva and here we're telling
you no your wife doesn't have to accept
you back
so says rabbin utam and the russian many
other russian
such a person you're allowed to tell
them look you're exotic you're a good
person
but you did something wrong we want to
be with you to do truma but she's not
obligated to stay with you
she's not she's not she's allowed to
decide we're not christians
the catholic church doesn't believe in
divorce that barbados says the reason
why we believe in divorce
can't fall apart if i do something wrong
then i i can't strengthen my marriage
that barbara nelson that's where he
argues with the catholic church
so we tell this husband we're sorry you
could do trouble you could start your
life again you can marry somebody else
but she's not obligated she's not
obligated but somebody who's hiv
you're not at a person to give again you
have to get him to understand this you
have to talk to him
you have to talk to me i'm sorry you
have to you have to get we have to get
through to such a person we have to
break through to such a person
you're allowed to push him you're
allowed to say i'm sorry until you don't
understand this you can't come to shul
i'm sorry until you don't understand
this we can't give you an aliyah i'm
sorry until you don't understand we're
going to protest in front of you until
you come to the table but you're allowed
to get through tim
clayton you're not getting through to
that person because telling us you're
not going to get through that person
he hit a level he hit a level that
you're probably not going to be able to
get through to him
he's he has a real deep personality so i
mean the psychologists now understand
what the rambam meant
a thousand years ago the random says
somebody with a personality disorder a
deep one where his yates a heart is
fully governing him
he doesn't even recognize himself you're
allowed to beat him because you're not
gonna get through to such a person
modern-day psychologists say that people
who have narcissistic personality
disorders
which is lacquered the eight sahara it's
the tsar shall be esau
you can't get through you can't talk to
them so the ram says
it's not that the turtle likes this it's
not the turtle's a fan of this so you
don't know
what's just for for both of our
liability sake let's just clarify we
don't beat anyone we don't cattle prod
anybody
we don't we don't get physical or
graphic or violent with anyone today
what we talk about today forcing is the
benetham like we're talking about right
now the social pressure and
shining the spotlight and um withdrawing
from a person socially not allowing them
to have certain social licenses or
privileges
membership in community kibudim and so
on and so forth that's our version of of
forcing
rebecca did you have conversations
around directly were you involved in
trying to mediate
and then trying to bring this to a get
without having to go to a basement
without having to have a hearing
to just realize that the the marriage is
over give the get
it's the final step towards this
separation and do you think that we've
reached the point that you just
described to kofin
that while aaron is a wonderful person
inside and and
externally too in many many many ways
but there's a yet sahara that has gotten
the best of him
that he's refusing to cooperate until
now and giving us the
the license and the permission to be
doing these social pressure
so it's it's i i want i wanted i want to
talk about this because it's so
important
there's a safer called kefir baguette
which a lot of the diatoms use it's one
of the essential swarm that they on them
use when they navigate through these
complicated topics because these
complicateds are
our these topics are very complicated
the safety of the gut was written by
with c gartner and in tough shin mem
alef
a couple of years ago um rebel yash who
gave a
scammer to the safer and in the hammer
to the safer combined in the store ruby
asheville wrote what do you do when one
when the parties don't want to go to bed
in such a case of trio arably asham
wrote a sack that's so fascinating
yashev wrote that when a lady comes to
bed
just for a guest for nothing else she
doesn't want her subah she doesn't want
momminess
she's just coming for her gut just
coming for her get
that is a denture between her and hashem
yoshi brings arya when and aguna comes
to bed and it says mace bailey i don't
know where my husband is
and the gemara has a discussion is this
an entirety between her and her husband
because she's going to be taking super
from her husband's property anymore and
she's also now going to get remarried do
we look at it as a demon moment as an
entire we can't pass it until the
husband shows up
which is his contradiction to the cancer
level or no do we say
we could we'll accept it and turn the
command says no it's a demon of fascists
we can accept the husband's not a party
over here or we ask this isn't the case
where a husband is insider of lovely
lady
so you ask them to come forward you
asked the comfort and he says not your
atlanta pascal chalet before
without our husband being there and this
has been discussed many times in the
position there are
numerous troops about this topic from
their abundant television wrote about
this a 40-page tube about this
explaining this really ashamed
many person wrote about this rabli
ashraf ended off with a maram shikh
that says you still have to try your
best to speak to the husband also to
hear both sides just for
transparency reasons so when devorah
calls
a rob she's asking for the ralph pascal
without my husband being there there's
not even listen to her story without
trying to reach out to the other of
because the mar says that smith
shakatarika near one side without the
other
we reached out we spoke to aaron he's
he's he's a great person he's a good
person
aaron's a good person who has a lot of
trauma we just need to get through tim
we spent hours he has a lot a lot of
complaints a lot of kindness against the
world
and again specifically this case we're
not going to get into too much detail
and we have to push him we have to push
him to give the guest
but i could say from being involved from
speaking to aaron
and speaking to vora that i believe
aaron is the person that deep down wants
to give a get
now of course we have to push him to go
to bed and barack hashem the protest
made
a move that way that he's willing to go
to bed and of course he signed with a
lot of conditions that he's going to go
to boston
which a person doesn't have the right to
do you have conditions we discussed this
maharashtra
which we're not even getting into detail
conditions to discuss when the gut
should be given
but the conditions to go to bed and you
don't have the right to do bezen of
america wrote a seraph which gave them
to
permission to make make up sack without
him being there
um now in the in the 11th hour he's
saying he wants to go to bazin which is
a little bit mafia they already
separated for a long enough time
that ramaisha feinstein rabino yurukhum
reprinte and
many of the daily preschool and
including the emotional finances after a
certain amount of separation we don't
push on bias anymore we don't
it's very sad i have men who call me and
tell me i'm telling you my wife's gonna
come back
i'm they promise me they cry in my
office i want to cry with them i'm just
as sad as they are
seven eight years i have somebody now 11
years i wish he's listening to this
message
11 years has told me that he promises me
his wife's coming back he doesn't
understand he has such a narcissistic
personality disorder
he doesn't understand and he always
screams to me how come you're not
pushing the same way you're pushing me
to give a get how come you're not
pushing her for selling bias
and i say because your moisture to chew
on among any many good daily price can
that have a certain amount of time
even if the husband is a perfect person
we force them to give a gap
because she's not coming back and if
she's not coming back you're being made
of not supporting her properly and she's
allowed to move on you're holding her
back from getting remarried
and you're allowed to force these people
out of dignity you're stealing their
dignity because they're entitled to say
that
i don't want to continue to be married
to you and as badly or as much as you
claim to be in love with me
it takes two it takes two parties and
and i'm moving on
so why can't devota or some of the other
circumstances that are going on right
now that people know and everyone should
continue their efforts
to free these women who finally no
longer feel so isolated and alone
and even of those who have not yet
received their get at least what they've
received is the support of the community
the visibility the empathy which all
goes an enormous enormous way as well
so why can't dvor or these other women
say i refuse to go to a basement i'm not
finding borrowing arbitration just give
the get
there's nothing to hear we're civilly
divorced we're fully separated according
to emotion for that length of time
that it's irreconcilable that we're not
getting back together so i'm not going
to participate in based in
i was willing to do that two years ago a
year ago six months ago
but now we're at a point give the get
there's nothing more to talk about
can we be rallying and pushing and
showing up and saying
there are no conditions there's no
negotiation there's no longer room for
bayes then to decide whether a get
should be given
it's black and white it's obvious you've
moved on with your life your lifestyle
the way you're conducting your life
you clearly are not acting as somebody
who sees himself as
still married so therefore give the get
wha why does
why does she need to agree to go to
bayesian altogether she does it's a good
question she doesn't need to agree to go
to beds and
the way bessen's created in america is
any rev who decides that he wants to
have a basin
is allowed to make he's allowed to say
he has a bed that's clear in halacha
it used to be and ripley ash is still
held very strongly in that even america
used to be you need
something called zion to the ear the
members of a community
they ran the community they need to have
a certain type of leadership which we
almost don't have in most communities
they appoint the best and nowadays any
rough could become a better thing
a lady has to go to a rub and she has to
say
hi i want i want to tell you a story and
i want to leave such a marriage
now why does she have to speak to her
off the road it's not any ladies allowed
to leave a marriage whenever she wants
if a lady doesn't have an excuse from
her commitment that she gave her husband
that she's going to stay married and she
doesn't have a proper reason why she's
leaving
then that is that that lady is
considered rebellious what does that
mean a lady who just finds another man
in the street
and says you know what i'm done with my
husband i'd rather be with this guy and
the husband did nothing wrong
he treated the marriage the way he was
supposed to treat and she's the one
who's rebelling from the commitment of
marriage
the halaq is that the husband doesn't
have to support that wife anymore he
doesn't have to support that wife
that allah is supposed to give that wife
a guest because she's
going to be with somebody else and we
don't want that that that's halal
ish but the husband still let him pursue
the marriage
he's allowed to try his best he's
allowed to try to convince her for a
certain amount of time
after that time is done we say now
you're forced to give a gun
it's not going to happen you guys are
not getting back together that time
is supposed to be revolutionized is
supposed to be given over to a dying a
dying should decide
did you pursue is there still any chance
is this going to work
now he could do it by looking talking to
the lady he could do by meeting them
both together
if the couple gives them permission he's
allowed to meet with each party
separately
uh verbiage and ibs writes that clearly
in similar design and they're allowed to
make any deal
to hear the dispute but in certain cases
a husband says i'm not willing to talk
i'm not willing to talk to rav
so dear in those cases the rob gives him
an opportunity a certain amount of time
to show up to the table
which is called the has mana the besan
or the rav sends out a hazmat
if the husband doesn't show up they say
he's a massage he's not coming here
he's not coming in there a lot of past
can chile the funnel they're allowed to
hear the white side
and then say the story it could be they
can tell the wife i'm sorry based on
your story
we're still going to allow the husband
to pursue sean baez i have many cases
where ladies come to me
tell me their story and i say i
understand you want to get divorced
personally
i'm sharing with you that i think you're
making a mistake but if your husband
comes to me he says he wants to pursue
you
and run after you and try to convince
you to come back together i'm going to
give him that opportunity why not i
think he's
i think he would be doing a stupid move
by just giving you up right and just
moving on but how much time do we allow
that we don't allow that seven years we
don't allow that relationship says more
than a year
replying he said 18 months and you have
to understand that was 18 months where
they didn't have cell phones
they didn't have phones they didn't have
a whatsapp and communication was
probably done once every month
and the european palagi allowed 18
months when they're living in two
different cities
the dionym have to say how much time is
needed but when the husband doesn't show
up the doesn't have to pass it without
him there and i think that's very
important to become public
but the demon or abundant have to start
tasking right away that means they have
to call up the husband say do you want
to show up within six weeks do you want
to show up within two months you want to
show within three days
whatever time this dying feels is
necessary based on his understanding of
relationships but
if the husband says yeah great hear both
sides if the husband says
no hear the wife's side probably astrid
learns up that this is dining a fascist
this is not dinimus it's very important
a goodness of fascist so it's a very
important point you're making because
it there are people who oversimplify
this in both directions
there are those who say that once a
woman she wakes up one morning she says
i no longer want to be married to this
guy
and if he doesn't give a get by this
that afternoon she's in aguna
and that's an oversimplification which
is really a disservice in one direction
there is halacha there is a process he
is entitled
to a certain amount of time so in
oversimplification the direction that
says any woman doesn't get her get
within five minutes
is in aguna and is entitled to the
community support
rallies protest and he is a villain is
an unfair oversimplification in one
direction
when maybe the husband does deserve a
certain amount of time or for the sake
of
shalom truth children family there
should be some space and some margin
to see whether there can be
reconciliation on the other hand
there's the oversimplification of the
other direction which is what we're
suffering from a little bit right now
of people who take the sources of khan
that you've been so seamlessly sharing
and and manipulating those sources to
say almost indefinitely
no and this and that in this region and
that acronym and based in
sac and kefia and therefore he's done
nothing wrong
right you've told me that behind every
magen behind every man not giving a get
is a rav a dayan or a baysdan who is
protecting him
misquoting sources to support him or
who's contributing to the manipulation
of the system
right many of these men are not
knowledgeable or well-versed enough
to be able to manipulate the system on
their own behind every ma'again behind
every man not giving a get
is a basement or a rabbi or a diane who
is
enabling that person by providing
certain sources and
oversimplifying in the other direction
and that's why
the system really needs credible people
with integrity
sensitivity um modesty humility
who are care about all the components
and all the variables
who will navigate the halacha the
protocols
the common sense the psychology and
we'll say
here's enough margin to see whether
something can be reconciled
but it's also going to be a very short
rope because we're not going to let
women
who deserve to move on with their lives
become stuck and paralyzed
indefinitely that's grossly unfair and a
disservice
unjust to them so there are people who
conveniently will oversimplify in both
directions
but the truth is in a very nuanced way
in between
and it needs knowledgeable and credible
people but this is one of those
situations
where with the nuance with the time with
the effort with the countless
attempts at mediation everything has
been tried so the public
those who are still listening need to
know that um
again the serum is still in place the
basin of america is confirmed
and confirmed yes aaron did sign a
binding arbitration with a bayes den
but he signed it on his terms with his
conditions and zvora has not agreed to
those
that's not the venue that she took him
to she took him to the basin of america
he and his towing have absolutely
ignored and neglected the basin of
america
and instead tried to pivot to another
business thing by signing a barbecue
binding arbitration that's very
favorable to him with his conditions
and it tries to show the world oh he's
the good guy now he's cooperating she's
not cooperating
but it's simply not true she's
cooperated she's asked him to
participate
he's thumbed his nose he's said no
countless times
and now in the 11 and a half hour he's
going to his own based in
with his own conditions that she decided
are unfair
and while there are ongoing
conversations and negotiations very
important to say
there are ongoing conversations can they
find a place where they will both agree
how to proceed
but simultaneously it is critically
important to keep the pressure up
so if you're listening if you're
watching keep that pressure up post on
social media
there's going to be a rally in lakewood
where aaron is staying protesting our
own directly
please stay posted please uh become
aware of when that rally will be
and should go into up for a second yes
what you mentioned before you know on
the first on the first uh video chat
that we did
i try to stay very very politically
correct um after getting the
numerous amount of whatsapps text
messages and emails i realized that it
doesn't really make a difference
everybody's gonna understand whatever
whatever they want to hear and whatever
they want to understand in their own way
but with misunderstanding i want to say
something that that
to me is so interesting and i want to
really call out
um there's been many people who have
posted videos i get
i get emails and lots of chats from
husbands who never are part of groups
that deal with parental alienation which
is a whole topic that that doesn't need
to be dealt with
where fathers lately and don't get to
see their children in certain cases
it's it's such such a a i don't even
know what the word is it's it's terrible
um it's still not an excuse and i i want
to discuss that but one of the people
who
they go to discusses the topic of git
and actually put out a contrast it was
written anonymously i'm not sure who put
it out it's called
um i think pumas you could actually find
it find it online
which bashes the succumb from the dionym
and the rabbit
how they passed and when a husband is
forced to give a gut and when not
and um one of the succumb that the rabbi
uses is upset from robin your home which
we said were emotionally functioning
quotes or cryptology many points can
quote that when you're separated for a
certain amount of time
and there's no chance of selling by
force the husband to give a gap
and they write that nobody passes like
this revenue and they quote
the police king who disagree with robin
you're saying we don't pass connect
and one of the points can be quoted is
the divorce malkiel in all their
contracent that came out against these
gifts and they quoted different malkiel
and i was very i wanted to see the
different monkey inside i didn't know
about it and the different malkiel is
talking about a case vice versa
it's where a lady didn't want to accept
to get and the husband said hey it's
more than a year
and she said i want closure i want to
understand why this is not working i
won't understand what's being done
and they write on the haitian revenue
the white deserves closure
and we don't use the urban european to
pressure her to accept the gap
these people took that rabbini you
reckon they flipped it around they said
hey you've seen the difficulties we
don't pass like you're being
yeah we just explained the wife is the
one that needs closure when she's
accepting yet something's happening to
her
she's the one who's who's getting the
force the husband's not getting divorced
of course we might not use her being
you're welcome to force to get upon the
wife
but the husband many players can use
their banner you come and i don't wanna
get into people are gonna start sending
me emails who doesn't quote their venue
it's a huge suggestion discusses this
topic revenue
in the pisces which is a sacrament wrote
himself
so nobody could say he meant it he
didn't meet it everyone should take a
look at it it's on hebrew books the
biscuits
has page 222 where lyasha discusses
clearly when a marriage
is over it's such an important topic and
yeah people abuse the topic i've seen
people
who are good people and they'll send me
and they're in pain they're all in pain
a lot of them some
some of them haven't seen their children
properly the way they would like divorce
is a
very painful thing we're not we're not
saying it's not it's extremely painful
but that pain you have two ways of using
it you've used
you can use that pain to grow from your
mistakes and become a better person
or you can use that pain to allow the
it's hard to govern
every one of your emotions and sometimes
you need to hear dresses with a beard
and a very hostile capata and a very big
up hat and he has a sign on his door
and he tells people and it's very very
very sad
because the terrorist makes perfect
sense
and when i see people quote certain
stuff i think they think we live in
yemen or
or in certain muslim communities and i
hope this is not not politically correct
to say
but i i think they think that the turtle
has a different relationship of husband
and wives
and we our
perfect set we follow it but if we
corrupt it it's a samhain of us if we
corrupt it
you're making such an important point
because i myself have received such an
education
about tauanim and bhatte din and and
certain asconum
over the last uh six weeks two months
and there's a lot of corruption
a lot of corruption and there's a lot of
shallow shema
and there's a lot of manipulation it's
very very painful to see but
and it's what the navi it's what the
navy mourns i have a greater
appreciation of of have torahs
over the last six weeks than i ever have
even i've taught of shabbos agado
where they they say and before uh tisha
b'av lama lee rosham you're shocking
you're davening
it's all beautiful but take care of the
widow and the orphan take care of
mishpot and staka
have justice and righteousness because
the corruption
is is really unbearably painful to see i
also want to make a comment on the
parental alienation that you said
and i want to correct which with
devoto's permission would never want to
air
such a laundry in public but only
because there are lies being told
so there are people who are defending
our own behavior saying he's not allowed
to see his children what do you want him
to do
that's all he can do is withhold the get
in order to be able to get to see his
children
he's not allowed to see his children
first of all right now he has two of his
three children for three weeks
for three weeks he has two of his three
children they're with him full time
the entire time there's no alienation
there's no
denial he has his children for three
straight weeks
traveled with them they're with him a b
he withheld the get for significant time
even before there was an order of
protection regarding the third child
when it comes to the third child it's
not the voter there's a judge who put in
place an order of protection
for whatever circumstances that are
there that please god reconciliation
will take place
everybody agrees including devorah that
her daughter is better off at the father
in his life
she wants her in his life but in a safe
way that everyone's comfortable with
healing
with therapy and with the ability to
reconcile she wants that
everybody wants that please god that
will happen but right now there's an
order of protection
regarding the third child but here's the
thing i don't refuse to give the get
before there was an evident order of
protection
when custody was split when it all the
time that he wanted when he was enjoying
all the time that he deserved with his
children
he still refused to give to get so
anyone who defends him anyone who gets
behind him and says
he is entitled to use the get as
leverage to extort
or to exploit or because he wants to get
his children back
he's had his children all along with his
third child only recently
there's an order of protection and
please god it will be reversed and he'll
be able to be with that third child as
well but he was withholding to get
long before this order of protection
ever began and therefore
clearly it's not connected to the
children at all so it's a very real
issue parental alienation
and it's a horrible thing whenever i
meet with couples
who are getting divorced which
unfortunately is too often i always say
the same line to them
before we even begin i say to them love
your children more than you hate one
another
you have a choice do you love your
children more than you dislike the other
or are you going to allow your dislike
of the other
to supersede the love of your children
because your children deserve parents
who can get along who can cooperate for
their sake so you have a choice to make
so parentalization
is a terrible terrible thing and it's
better for children to have their
parents most of the time
almost all the time in their lives
except for extreme
circumstances so you're right deserves
to be addressed another time
but this is not a case of it and nor is
this a
excuse to not give the get because he
wasn't giving to get long before there
was this issue with the third child
a hundred percent and uh and again we're
telling i spend many i mean now now
aaron probably looks at me as an enemy i
haven't spoken to him since we
you know we here we heard the video i
spent a lot of time with certain friends
of iron who really were trying to help
him give a gift and then there were
certain friends who really weren't
trying to help
and i think it's very important i heard
this many times from a mayor stern my
rebbe when i discussed with him gittin
and different topics and he sometimes
tells me he says
this boy thinks he has friends does he
realize that any friend who's giving
someone advice
that's contrary to the torah it's not a
friend it's an enemy they're giving bad
advice because they want to maybe stay
friends with him they wanted to like him
that's not friends aaron if you're
listening to this i can tell you
honestly me and robbie goldberg are your
friends that
we really really want you to do the
right thing we really believe that your
life will turn out better and we'll be
better by you moving forward you're
going to find another wife
you're going to build a beautiful
relationship with your children you're
going to build a nice relationship with
your ex-wife
but as an ex-wife as a wife you can't
get along it didn't work
out you guys were not able to get along
as a husband and wife
and therefore we know you want to give a
get just give the get and you'll be able
to move on and have
you'll have closure the voter will have
closure your children will have closure
and you'll build a beautiful family
but a family that's being built on
majorities on fighting
is not a family it's not a family it's
not a life it's the worst thing in the
world
besides supposed to be doesn't it's
supposed to be marvelous
if you go to bed and you're creating the
mahalakas
that the best should create shalom not
much
and if the whole business system is
about mahlik's about fighting and it
looks like we're hearing on social media
then we're making the mistake we're not
bringing mashiach that way we
believe and this is what you're buying
business
hashem knows that's what's sitting we
look at ghazal
tell
is to do the right thing and in this
case it's to give a gap
it's so well said and it's a perfect
place to leave it this was a long video
update
but it was really important to
understand not only the specifics of
this case but many of the principles and
the rules in general for people who are
unfamiliar with them
how the system works and why it works
and if khan we thank you for your
expertise and sharing it with us and i i
can't echo strongly enough everything
that you said
which is that neither of us have
anything against our own we know our own
and we love our own and we want our own
to do the right thing and we'd love to
get back to that
to that place and if aaron claims that
there are financial differences that he
deserves different than what the
civil court determined you're entitled
to go to base and to do that
nobody's telling you you're not entitled
to pursue what you think are your
financial rights in base then
go and pursue them and if devorah were
to not cooperate with bayes then we'd be
the first to be encouraging and
pressuring her
in that circumstance in that situation
however the get cannot be an obstacle
the gate cannot be leveraged
it's time it's time to let her move on
and to reap all the benefits and rewards
derby khan spoke about so beautifully we
want to wish everyone a good moment
we want to wish all lagunas that should
be able to go free on this
to experience freedom and redemption in
the taka we're all able to enjoy shalom
that we can enjoy peace and harmony in
our families
and in our communities thank
