[Applause] it's time for rabbi Minko it's weekly Torah lesson here with his spiritual perspective and insight rabbi Mingo it's this week's Torah lesson this week's Torah portion is partially me as well as Pasha's para as well as Chavez from Vulcan and the question of the week is to what extent should you love someone else so since this week is priceless meaning and also partial smart para when we learn about the laws of the red heifer in order to appear to become pure for the month of Nisan where everyone had to be pure in order to bring the sacrifice in the temple so we're going to share a thought about parshas point so when most sure Baden was learning in the Torah parshas Emer where it speaks about the laws of the priests where the priests have to remain pure and if they become god forbid the file with a dead body what the the way they become defiled they cannot serve in the temple until they become pure so moisture of a new was bewildered how can a priest that became defiled with a dead person become pure and he asked God had questions so the medicines and God doesn't answer most reveal it bothered Moshe brain is so so the Metra says that his face became very very very rate but no answer from God later on several Torah portions later in Pontius cucas the special Torah portion read this week in honor Pontius partner and God says Zoe's cookus a Torah this is a hooka a whole new level of a commandment which is beyond rationale with God Institute's and teaches us the laws of purity of a dead person when God teaches the laws of purity of a dead person so then God first emotion says remember them when I Nancy you this is the answer so the Rebbe says a powerful insight moisture of a new was a holy human had no connection with impurity he was a pure soul and he did not serve in the temple as the priest so the whole Puritan impurity had nothing to do with him but nevertheless when a priest became it would become impure by becoming kind toward that person it bothered her motivated so much up to the point that he reached out to God God didn't respond and he was so bothered at his face became red because he was so concerned that's why God gave the huge gift of the hook in the statues which allowed the purity process to take place from a great level of impurity and there he says here you see the power how you have to be concerned about another human being even if your does not relate to you but if something affects someone else it should bother you like Moshe arena was bothered about the priests purity and because of that we got the tremendous gift of the laws of Pontius para Duma which purifies someone that comes in contact with a dead person so the answer the question how much do you have to love somebody learn from our survey know something that someone's going through even if you have no connection to it your love should be so much or to bother you up to the point like vulturing where you face get so red and you're concerned about them and this way you be able to receive huge blessings like won't you know God for the Jewish people that we have all the laws of purity thanks to motion rain is concern and love for another human being this week's Torah class is dedicated to the memory of Boris Minari liebe slow movin Yosef and Rock Hall the sleeper may their souls be elevated by the Torah that we're studying in their memory thanks so much for joining us for our weekly Torah lesson for more information please see our website [Music]
