you
chapter number 27 right south moisture
music nice or assembly more Shamar is
colon Mitzvah I shall no human service
am I going to keep all of the litters
right in raschi points out it's in the
present which means it's something which
is incumbent upon us every day we
touched on it yesterday the idea of
keeping bitters what's fascinating over
here is which says that Schmo escolha
Mitzvah are sharing a human service can
I owe him that you should observe the
entire commandment that I command you
this day which means that it's as if a
college bowl call is describing the
commandments as one so I've uses I've
uses this parable before but I think it
may I think it's a makes perfect sense
the mitzvahs are like a tapestry which
means that every every mitts are inside
of that tapestry needs to be there
because if you don't have it you're
going to have a hole over there and
they're intertwined with each other and
that's why you can refer to the mitzvos
in the singular right that you should
keep the Mitzvah that i'm going to give
you today because that all of them are
contained 11 inside of the other I think
I mentioned the other day I mentioned
the idea of wearing a sweater and it's
got a little piece of thread that's
sticking out of it you try pulling off
that piece of thread the next thing you
know you unravel the whole arm right
because it's all one piece it belongs to
each other well yeah but yoma should
Tavarez yeah dinner or association LOL
carefully singh lock baki musa la pavoni
module is for Santo Samba seed and now
what they're being commanded to do is
something which is really quite
interesting they have to bring enormous
stones the stones have to be covered in
some kind of some kind of a cement of
some kind plaster because some tile aim
is called d VAR torah Zeus bhav reckon
you're going to write the entire Torah
Torah on these enormous pieces of stone
while amanda schiavo LOL ok release in
the fall eretz of a scalable devochka
shady vache mothercare we settle off so
we need to know that when we're going
into the languid what it's going to be
the border of the land of israel instead
of instead of having passport control
like you have in ben gurion airport
you're going to have these enormous
stones that have the Torah written on
them by your butt over here
so yeah didn't I kemo sabi nila ella
ella fue matada it's como un pájaro Val
the salutary Samba said who veneca
shammies backlash a Medicare from his
back on my name no honey for lembas el
not only do you have to put up these
enormous stones what will talk about him
in a minute just just hold on right not
only do you have to put up these
enormous stones but you have to also
build a Miss Bay up an altar now the
altar is not allowed to be built with
any kind of with any kind of metal any
kind of iron having been used in its
building right now obviously we all
understand the simplest way to cut stone
is to take iron and to cut it inside of
the Miz bath that's being built the the
altar that's being built and the also
inside of the temple as well there was a
prohibition against using any kind of
metal to build things inside of the
temple and this ms back over here this
altar over here why is that because iron
is considered to be something which
depicts warfare right weapons of war
were used how do you make weapons of war
use iron in order to make weapons of war
the temple and then is very you alter
our something that represent peace
therefore you can't even use iron
implements you can't use iron tools in
order to build the things inside of the
temple right so far so good if you go to
the cartel which I'm sure you do from
time to time you'll see that the stones
at the bottom are very big and then they
get progressively smaller depending on
the era that the stones were added on to
the original wall depends on how small
they're going to be until you get to the
top and they're really rather small all
together but that sounds at the bottom
which would put in place some of these
go back an awful long way are absolutely
enormous they're enormous and they're
heavy very heavy right where did they
bring when they brought them from
quarries just outside of Jerusalem how
did they bring him to CASIA they
probably used wood trunks and rolled
them along right so they would put the
wood they would put the trunks
underneath these stone and then they
would
as the thing moved foot was there how
whole series of these things they keep
having people running forwards and
putting their putting the old ones down
and then running forwards and putting
the old ones down and that's probably
how they brought them to you shall I
because otherwise I don't know how they
would have got there but the idea is
that the the temple the place of the
temple them is they ask the the
watchamacallit the altar it's a place of
peace and we're not allowed to use the
anything that's metal in its building of
an inch lamest tiffany is Miss bahasham
ilakaka Valley so I love oil 0 / Emily
careful you're going to bring a lot 1 I
water a lot a lot of pee sacrifices an
oiler is something which was offered up
in its entirety something that was given
entirely to god there's a vast ashlyn
Burkhalter Shalvis a master lift
neshaminy careful you're going to
rejoice in front of God like a South
Oliver name is called Avata as those
very tip and you're going to write
everything that's written in the Torah
is going to be written on these pieces
is enormous slabs of stone and they're
going to be sticking they're going to be
understood very well the the oral
tradition says that not only was the
Torah written in wash and our coalition
Hebrew on these stones but they were
written in the 70 primary languages that
exist cuz I'll teach that there are 70
not including washing our college there
are 70 primary languages there are 70
primary nations not including the Jews
and from that all the other languages
and all the other nations are offshoots
of those original 70 the most incredible
idea over here the turret has to be
translated into 70 different languages
the there's a locus in the early
authorities amongst they were showing
him whether the plaster was plastered on
after they'd written the turret or
before they'd written it which means
it's not a hundred percent clear whether
this was something that you came when
you saw it was all written up and you
could read the writing or whether it was
something that was put into place and
then it was plastered over and it's
there but it's not easily accessible
question are we here is what
the function of translating the Torah
into 70 different languages so according
to the vast majority the motion of the
commentaries the idea is that the Jewish
people are going to go into exile that
much was something which Moshe Rabbeinu
understood if Moshe Rabbeinu himself is
not allowed into the Land of Israel in
these are the Jewish people are not
going to be able to live up to his
spiritual levels and therefore at some
point they're going to be sent off into
exile the minute we go into exile
learning Torah is going to be something
which is very difficult to do therefore
the Taurus translated into the 70
primary languages in order to put into
place the potential for Jews to be able
to learn Torah in any language in any
place you chat right because otherwise
what's the problem otherwise you're left
with you're only being able to learn
Torah in LA and I cottage in Hebrew
that's the only way that you can learn
it but here I college pakal's ready
putting into place the ability of a
potential for us to be able to sit down
and learn Torah in English because the
tar was translated already into those
languages no but the Chinese like this
that what one once again the 70 primary
languages are the basis of the other
languages which they're all finding
their roots back into those original 70
which means that where does where does
English fit into this you know where
where does it appear I don't know it
does it really doesn't matter you know
draws its roots back into one of them
yeah yeah yeah where are these stones
well they don't exist anymore today no
one's found them they were set up
presumably they went over the Jordan
River on the on the they were set up on
the Israel side of the Jordan River and
like it says over here that they have to
be set up in a place called hire a vowel
where is where is hire a vowel next to
scam next next to Nablus we're aware of
the stones now I don't know ok let's go
let's have a look and see right down
there Vucevic only malady and i'll call
you saw me more
has k Sushma Liu mazzini a stellar Amla
shamela careful so then Moshe tells the
Jewish people that you've become now a
nation in front of God with schemata
Berkana shemitah careful as he says me
to solve yes coke of a shallow humid
Saavik I young and we're going to keep
his mitzvahs and we're going to keep his
statute right in the way that we've been
commanded today again just what one
second that today of course ties back
into the today that we discussed when
was it I was at yesterday or the day
before I can't remember but when Raschi
says over there that I owe him that
every day we have to look at it as being
as if I coach ball who commanded us a
new all of this is fresh we have to be
excited and passionate about what's
going on yeah what's sticking to 22
moment and it degree a decree is
something that we don't understand which
means that from the very beginning of
all who lay down things that don't have
any rational logical explanation second
separate thing you should perform all
these components and his decrees yeah
and sansom why we said well we've be
told fun because here the thing is like
this if you get told to keep the midst
as mixes or something that you can
understand so there's a ton to say over
there that is that you know you had the
ability to be able to say that because I
understand and that's why I have to keep
them that's really what we're talking
about the other day right yesterday I
the other day right this idea of titties
whenever the two days ago yeah they here
but when I college Bach was saying that
you have to keep the Hakeem is where
you've got to keep the decreases well
the statutes right what are the statute
said things that we keep because I
college bar who wants us to keep them do
we understand them we can understand
only only up to a little point so for
example the classic statute in the
Hamish is a poor Adam is the red heifer
like do we understand it we don't
understand it makes pure people in Purim
impure people pure and it's something
which we don't understand how it works I
college park will put it into place
that's what he wants from us but you
should know there are many statutes
inside of the Commission some of them we
know when we love and we don't pay an
awful lot of attention to the fact that
we don't understand them so for example
keeping kosher because it does it make
any sense of one animal is kosher and
another another animal is not kosher it
does what
census of Agriculture Cosmo disease fix
any more curses crustaceous game okay
well whatever you say I mean III have a
I have a little bit of a critique on the
idea of saying that kosher food is
cleaner than is healthier than non
kosher food because that was so if that
was so then the non-jews will be
dropping down dead all over the place
right from from the you know when they
have their bacon and eggs in the morning
then that should wipe them out it
doesn't doesn't seem to do that ah it
affects okay it affects us as well the
rambam you're you're right oh so the
room that the Rabanne that manatees
points out that the kosher animals that
we eat animals that are not they're not
they're not beasts of prey right one of
the one of the definitions right the
birds that we eat are not birds of prey
and that that's because in a certain
sense is a rambling of Monday's you are
what you eat which means that we're
eating animals that are how do you want
to describe and I'll let less aggressive
less less confrontational even though
you know crazy crazy ox's can can do all
kinds of damages that's for sure but but
nevertheless the the idea the idea is
that we eat you are what you eat and
that that's one of the reasons why we
don't need blood blood is forbidden for
Jewish people to eat so there and
bounces over there because blood
contains the light source if the light
sources is animalistic then if we eat
their blood then we're going to become
animalistic ourselves right what is it
you're going to tinkle moms nope or your
fantasies you dirty a whole kit and
kaboodle you should know some of the 10
kilometers something very fascinating
first of all their name in Hebrew is not
Ten Commandments they're not called the
Asura that then i'll call the a ceramics
thought they called a sarit handy
brought right what addy brought what is
addy boy that's a statement which means
it at ten commandments not really Ten
Commandments attend statements first of
all there's more than 10 commandments
inside of them but the refs and you get
on very very early Santa quran explains
that the 10 commandments is significant
to the 10 commandments maybe we should
call me as her
the Rochester avoid avoid the
misconception but they are certain he
says the significance of the asserted he
brought is that all of the mitzvahs will
find their roots back inside of one of
those 10 which was at the 10 these 10 d
brought are in a sense what how do you
want to call they're like they're like
headings there like chapter headings
subheadings whatever you want to call
them right and within that you're going
to be able to draw back into their every
single mitzel will find its roots in one
of them and explains our side you go on
that's a significance why that college
ball decide that is going to give us
Sarah Teddy brought at the have seen I
if every Mitzvah has the same weight the
same importance as every other knitter
it's as if he's giving more more
credence to 1 and 2 another so it
explains know what I college ball is
doing is giving us a condensed version
of all of the 10 of all of the 613
commandments can be found inside of them
we're going to move into now a it's
going to begin ok we're going to start
off with some brothers which is very
nice and then afterwards it's going to
start getting rather rather unhealthy
we're going to move into the curses the
curses are pretty bad I college boy who
is promising us like this what why do we
need to have blessings and curses and
why do they seem to be so many curses
compared to the blessings ah free will
which means like this that a college bar
who wants to bless us maybe he wants to
give us Brockie he really does however
we need to know what the repercussions
are of whatever we do which means if we
do what Hashem wants us to do will be
the recipients of the most incredible
bounty that he has to give us but we
need to know that if we don't what's
going to happen don't imagine that if we
don't keep the blockers then it's okay
nothing's going to happen we'll just
carry on as is so I college bar is
spelling out in graphic detail what
happens if we don't in order to give us
the opportunity to choose one way or the
other it's our decision whether we want
to keep or whether we don't want to keep
I how come there are so many more colors
there are so many more curses than there
are brokers the truth is it's not it's
not like that at all however what's
going on that the Torah is replete with
brothels all the way through there all
kinds of all kinds of verses that talk
about our college
blessings towards us and the fact that I
college boy who loves us and that we're
hearing where his chosen nation and all
of the things that go together they're
spread out throughout the entire Torah
however when it comes to the curse is
rather than spread them out everywhere
cottage bak will concentrate them in one
place in order for us to be able to
recognize them to absorb everything I
college park was saying in one go and
then to move to move on right so let's
have a look and see what we've got with
the Broca's bahasham there's a whole
list of them before we get involved in
the curses by tabloids and bio moly more
Ayla yondu lavoie kasama hungry zoom bow
and bow over again it's a garden Shem

Bihari val leu venganza Asha is Roland
umber Naphtali now what is going on is
like this there are two mountains her
eval and Howard Greeson according to
Cazale they were once one mountain and
they were split I don't know how maybe
some kind of an earthquake something
split them into hargreaves in is a
mountain which until today next to its
niche hem harga resume is very it's very
green it's very verdant there's lots of
things growing over there and how a
vowel is a barren mountain now what a
college bar who is asking is like this
when the blesses and the good blessings
of the curses are going to be given to
the Jewish people that half of the
tribes stand on hog reason and half of
the tribes stand on her evil right and
one represents the blessings and one
represents the curse is the one that is
green the one that is flourishing the
one that is fertile represents the
mountain represents the blessings and
the mountain that is barren represents
the curses this does not mean however
that half of the Jewish people are being
blessed and half of them are being
cursed this is all being done as a joint
package so six of the tribes are going
to stand on hungry since six are going
to stand on how evil in the middle
between the two the LA via are going to
gather
and they're going to be the connector
between the two verano a live in your
local issue so Cole rum which means like
this that they're going to announce the
blessings and they're all going to say I

to announce a name it says Aurora ish

Kirsten is a person who makes her a
graven image a pestle and then he puts
it away in secret and he hides it away
in his home and everybody has to answer
I mean doesn't matter which mountain
you're on everybody's on true then it
says I will my Claire I viv Vian more
remark alarm I mean and somebody is
cursed somebody who beats his parents
and everybody has to answer army and
then the next verse I wrote my sig
vallejo somebody who changes the
boundaries between himself and his
friend vermeil column I mean he's going
to be cursed right well what does that
mean you've got it you've got two fields
one next to the other yet 11 X to the
other in the olden days the simplest way
of making a demarcation was simply to
put a roll of stones all the way down
right has dug at school the simplest
description of our sub is cruel is that
you take though you go in the middle of
the night where no one's around and you
take those stones and you push him a
meter into your neighbor's feel no one's
really going to realize no one's paying
that kind of attention to exactly how
big the field is and how big it isn't
and all of a sudden you've got now
you've got a slightly bigger feel than
you had before at the lockers of that
sub is gruel actually have all kinds of
interesting repercussions to them for
example whether it's permissible to open
up a business similar to another
business that's already there right so
let's say for example you you were you
know you open up a bakery opposite a
pre-existing bakery is that okay to do
it's not okay to do one of the
lacking ramifications of doing something
like that those are things that need to
be asked you need to go to a rather
that's what you want to do you need to
go to a Ravan you need to make sure that
what you're doing is not transgressing
the prohibition of our service glow of
encroaching on somebody else's
boundaries my father I love shall me so
tell me your story he grew up in the
East End of London which is where that's
like that the equivalent of the Lower
East End in New York it was the Lower
East Side in New York it was where all
the Jews where will the refugees lived
and he said that there was an enormous
double there was a double store on one
of the streets that was owned by an old
Jew and he was used to sell bedding and
sheets and covers and pillows and all
that kind of stuff quilts and one day he
had two sons and one day the old man
died and the two sons took over the
business and sure enough what happened
they started to fall out with each other
and they started fighting with each
other and in the end is double this
double store they split it down the
middle and they're now both selling
exactly the same stuff right they're
both telling the same stuff and they're
competing with each other for the same
market okay and for years and years this
went on for years and they would have
liked price wars you know this one would
would drop the cost of the pillows to
whatever it was and the one next door
would drop it down by another penny you
know and that's what they kept doing and
ultimately what happened was one of the
brothers died and the other brother
moved and these two shops came up on the
market and it transpired that the whole
thing had being that the whole thing had
been a gimmick that up on the top on the
second floor of the building it was all
one large warehouse where they would
keep all their merchandise together
there was no separation and they'd
worked out what they were doing was that
if people thought they were having price
wars than they would buy for whoever was
selling it cheaper without going to
check what it was being sold for a few
streets away right they were selling
things at inflated prices and that you
know because people who that that's what
human human nature is like that right
you see you see a good deal
so you go and you were you gone by it
right my brother sent me an email and
with a whole city of somebody had taken
a whole bunch of pictures in different
supermarkets in England of ridiculous
ridiculous deals now you know like what
whatever you know what we would say it
would say you know 145 pounds to 410 and
because it was written you know big a
big sign like that so lots of people
would bite they want to or whatever it
was but it was by two of them because
hey it's a deal right and when they get
home they suddenly rise hold on a second
five times two is ten aslim wait a
second he showed there was one it was
even more ridiculous there was one where
have you bought three of something it
was more expensive but if you would have
just bought one or two I people like
what happens people you don't look you
see that it's a you see the special deal
there's a sale going on and that's it
you just you take it right and it's my
father said that's what was going on
over there so it was most incredible cut
these people were making a great living
they were really in partnership together
and they did great because no one no one
was really paying attention to what was
going on but has sagas Google anybody
here if you're thinking of going into
business right so you need to be aware
of the the the the concepts of
encroaching on that livelihood of
another person right it is permitted
it's not permitted again more often than
not the answer is that it is permitted
but you need to you need to just make
sure that what you're doing is okay so
let's save a seat pocket over there and
you won't open another super and you
want to make naturally store up today is
that allowed in in theory again I mean
just in general terms it would be
allowed right you need to know of course
that is making a mistake because
supermarkets out they out by and they
out sell groceries which is the other
way round is that when that when the
when the supermarket when the
supermarkets start opening up that's
when the smallest all stop getting very
they get very concerned and then you
know the green groceries grow then
closed down and the smaller grocery
stores closed down because they kept the
can't compete is it politically okay
to you know to to compete with somebody
else to the point where you put them out
of business well again in general terms
it's okay to do that it may not always
be okay it really does depend on the
situation depends on the the you know
all the details over there so you go you
go are somebody and see what they say
right as i said it's okay then you can
go ahead and do it our all mash gear
either but direct right you should be a
curse to somebody who causes a blind
person to go astray well mark alarm
unnamed and everyone says I mean our
Lord MOT ameesh mad gay a tumble mana a
curse is a person who perverts the
Justice of what have we got a convert of
an orphan and of a widow but mark alarm
I mean I will show you haven Asia's oven
key Gillick enough of it a cursed is a
person who lies with his with his
father's wife again okay what does that
mean he has relations with her his
father's wife is not his mother it means
that his father has got himself
remarried somewhere along the line and
now the Sun is having relations with his
stepmother but Marco llamarme La
Rochelle hayden co baima you anybody
it's a cool person to cursed if he if he
has relations with an animal from our
column I mean everyone says are named by
roche okay luckily say bath ave boy bar
sea muy well Michael um I mean this is
stuff in that general oh good we're
gonna get let's just finish up the list
and then we can answer questions to sure
it's a right I will shave increase on
toy but i'll call on my main it's a bit
a curse to somebody who has relations
with their son in law a law michaela
adel verse 8 verse hacer that a curse is
somebody who who strikes his fellow in
secret by Mark Alaimo main I will or
care show you had likewise nefesh dumb
naki a cursed is somebody who takes a
bribe to kill a person who's innocent
run walk along on me and then the last
one I raw I shall lugar que más de una a
plan thesis on well Michael I'm I mean
everyone and accursed is somebody who
does not hold the words of the Torah
to perform them here so you ask it's a
very it's a very really it's such an
obvious question it cries out to be
asked right but there's nothing there's
nothing new here no niceties like
general ways that a normal person it
usually not one run their line I mean
most of them we hope yeah yeah complex
you can reason why he's roping out why
these things of all things right why is
why are these are ones that are being
there being highlighted there's
absolutely nothing here that we don't
know which if you if you want to say
there's a whole long list of things over
here that have not been mentioned before
so this is something new right good okay
b'seder let that sounds that sounds like
a reason to have them in there right
think mom's is these similar to the Ten
Commandments maybe the last five you
know don't do this don't do that don't
know the other even don't don't make
graven images I mean some of them are in
there like you're right which me say
yeah like I said we're not learning
anything you don't know it's not it's
not like oh gosh you know i'm not i'm
not allowed to you know i'm not a lot of
encroach on my neighbor's field oh no
you know I was sure up until now that it
was okay to do right you know oh rats
even I can't have relations with my pit
dog that dad you know how that's not
fair okay there's nothing here that we
don't know so what what Chuck so I went
to I want an explanation but I think
it's something very it's something very
deep and something which requires our
attention it really does which is that
all of these things over here are things
which are normally done in secret the
things that you're not going to make it
you're not going to make a publication
about this right which means a white
here mark levy amor yo you're not gonna
go beat up your parents in you know in
the middle of the street somewhere right
sagas gruel you're not going to go up to
your neighbor right and move the stones
in the middle of the day whilst he's
watching because it's how he won't let
you do that right
making making a poor man go astray I'm
sorry making a blind man goes straight
you can't do that if other people are
around because I'll tell him hey you
know what he's telling you nonsense
don't listen to what you say right
perverting justice having relations with
people or with things that it's
forbidden for you to have relations with
these are not normally things that are
done in a public in a public forum right
so what's the chat the channel we hear
is I this I think it's a very very
beautiful idea it's something which is
very fundamental it's not enough to be
Jewish like to be to be to be obviously
Jewish in public we have to live our
lives according to way that the tar once
instead of our lives in private as well
which means that lots and lots of people
what do they do that they live a certain
kind of a lifestyle and everybody looks
at them as being you know upstanding
store what members of the community and
all of a sudden it comes to light these
people have been doing things that
they're not allowed to do they've been
leaving the lines in a way that they're
not supposed to be living their lives
and all everything comes crashing down
right so the turnover here is coming
along here now when the Jewish people
are going to cross over into the Land of
Israel and they're going to go and live
in a land which is imbued with kaduche
words that this whole land is something
which in its essence is holy so they're
going to have to they're going to have
to reinforce the idea that when you live
in a holy land you've got to be even
more careful with your lifestyle than
you are when you're not living in that
holy land you know that there's a chewer
there's a letter that was written by the
hands-on ish you don't know what the
question is but it's clear from the
answer is clear that the person asking
the question is asking the cavendish
whether he should come on Ali are
whether you should come to live in
Israel and the husband is right over
there it's true then when you come to
Israel the midst visit you perform have
a greater worth to them and have a
greater weight to them and they become
more significant but the husband ish
then rides but it's also true that your
are they rose take on a greater weight
and a greater significance to them when
they're done over you in Israel then
when they're done outside of Israel
which means should i come on alia I
don't know are you are you ready to live
over here with the repercussions the
positive repercussions and the negative
repercussions the positive repercussions
are the more meters you keep are we here
the greater it's going to be for you the
better it's going to be for you the
problem is that avails sins that are
done over here carry a way to them they
don't carry in other places outside of
here and that's really what's going on
over here that's what this whole idea of
curse it is this and curse it is that
and curses of this and Kirsten is that
and we're looking and we're scratching
our heads and we're saying but hold on a
second we know all this stuff there's
nothing here we didn't know and yet
while the toes coming to teach us is
what the toes coming to teach us that
you have to live your life your private
life has to be as they believed in the
same level as your public life the
cabarrus is like this hold on a second
Leroy says like this that when Rob
Yohanan Ben Zakai was on his deathbed
it's a very very very poignant moment
when Rob Yohanan Ben Zakai was on his
deathbed so his tummy didn't came in to
get a bracha from him he was going to
bless him so he said they Satan rebel
barking oh they say Rebbe bless us and
he says to them like this he says that
he gives them a brother that their fear
of the shaman the fear of God should be
as great as their fear of their fellow
man so the tongue meeting the students
they turned it up they tended of you
often as a Canadian Remy they said you
know I'd can that's it that's all there
is sure surely you know surely you've
got something a little bit more
significant than that to tell us over
and he tells them the most incredible
reply he says I love I he says oh that
it were true when a person comes to sin
what does he do when a person comes to
sin he looks around to see whether
anyone's watching him and if they're not
he does it does he take into account
that I college bottles watching in the
whole time no right so he's saying to
his talmidim that alibi that we should
be on the level where we are as a scared
of our Kurdish bar cause we are
our fellow man like things that we
wouldn't dream of doing if other people
were watching us and yet we do them when
they're not watching us we do that
because we don't really believe that I
Shem is watching over here these took
him over here these whole things over
here are coming to do what they're
coming to teach us that we have to be
very very careful with the way that we
behave both in public and in private as
well
tell us astonishing story I don't think
anyone else is able to do is I really
don't but when rush lemon salmon toga
baffle was thee the God allowed or he
was the greatest illogical authority of
the generation he died about 20 years
ago when Roche limit on 100 bucks wife
passed away at the hess bed when it when
he eulogized so when he spoke he said
like this he said you know the meaning
is the custom is that when when a person
eulogizes wife that he asked her for
forgiveness right from the times and he
hurt her married life you know happens
from time to time that you have an
argument with each other that you don't
get on with each other you could hurt
each other verbally right he says he
says I don't have anything to ask
forgiveness for most incredible thing
right can anybody else get up and say
something like that i don't think so i
really don't but you know what it's
something it's something that it i think
it's food for thought whether it's
something that we can aspire to i guess
we will have to aspire towards that
right whether it's going to happen on
that I don't know if you managed to
swing it let me know right now it might
sound like it's not it's not such a
difficult thing to do right now but if
you're not married yet but it's a sure
when you get married you'll see that it
really truly truly it's difficult to
live with somebody 24 hours a day seven
days a week and not to not to say things
that hurt them from time to time so of
course we have to be sensitive we have
to be aware and we have to apologize if
we said something that we shouldn't have
said or we said something that we should
have said but we set it in the wrong way
but to be able to reach that mad raiga
that level of not having to apologize
because you never said anything to hurt
them I guess the only way that you can
do that is by not speaking to the nether
maybe maybe maybe that'll do the job I
don't know anyway chapter 28 so let's
see let's go on and okay here let's see
where we get to by yang schemata

Corellian our cold grey on it
a college boy who is going to put us
above all the other nations now general
boy site you have to understand
something very very fundamental over
here the Jewish nation is a chosen
nation is that fair it's not
particularly fair no a college bar who
decided that however being the chosen
nation comes with a tremendous amount of
responsibility which is the idea that
Jews being better than the non-jews is
simply not true the Jews are different
from the non-jews we've got different
responsibilities we've got different
obligations and that is that is that is
spelt out that's manifested with the
mitzvahs that we have to keep the more
mitzvahs we keep the more Kadosh the
more holy would become and the greater
becomes our position amongst the other
nations of the world which means there's
a pyramid system in the world as a
hierarchy and the Jewish people we're
supposed to be at the top of that
pyramid because we're the ones that are
supposed to be able to be closest to a
college bar hall in order bring that
spirituality to bring that connection
down into the physical world which means
you know when the mushaf comes amid so
show me should come very very soon but
when the Mushaf comes the they're still
being on Jews in the world the function
of the non-jews will be two foot to give
to bring us our physical requirements
our function in the world will be to
bring the spiritual requirements of the
non-jews to them which means are going
to be a symbiotic relationship that's
going to exist between the Jews and the
non-jews each one being able to supply
what the other one is missing right
which is will be missing physical things
because we'll be busy involved in
spiritual endeavors and they'll be
missing the spiritual dimensions because
they'll be busy in the physical realms
and each one will give to the other one
in order to let the other one have what
they're missing and that will complement
each other it's a very beautiful idea it
happens already right this idea of your
sovereigns wool and the two tribes where
you soccer were the ones that sat down
and learned and zulan were the ones that
went out to work and they were very very
successful and the tribe of zulan
eakly supported the tribe of you suffer
and the tribe of you soccer spiritually
supported the tribe is Valen and a very
beautiful balance that exists between
the two interestingly enough where was
it first supposed to manifest itself
where was that first supposed to come to
light by a seven yakov originally
evasive would have been at sabic if he
would have been righteous asa would have
been the supplier of the physical needs
and yaakov would have been the supplier
of the spiritual needs right what
happened on the way was it a sub didn't
cooperate when the egg yolk or has to
take on himself both the physical and
the spiritual support and everything
turns out the way that it turns out but
ultimately when the machines in it's a
shame that's exactly what we're going to
have we're going to be involved in
spiritual endeavors and the non-jews
will be involved in the physicality of
the world they say yeah there's a
beautiful story they tell reb aaron
kotler when he established the yeshiva
should though there were only five there
were five Talmud and five students and
20 Colo members like married to married
students and that was it difficult to
imagine here we are where did he
establish it I think whatever it's
probably it's probably maybe maybe 65
years old maybe even a little bit less I
can't remember NFC 60 years old but in
this fate as in the 60 years he's gone
from having five students to six seven
thousand students something
extraordinary there's a beautiful story
they tell a very wealthy man once gave a
large donation to have aaron kotler for
the yeshiva and then he asked the rosh
yeshiva to give him a blessing so he
gave their blessing he said like this he
said I give you a blessing that you are
Zota that you merit to hear divrei torah
to hear the words of torah being spoken
by God 24 hours a day
as a little bit of a pause and then the
the donor looks at reb aron he says
Rebbe he says he says I'm a business
thing he says maybe maybe you've got
something that's a little bit more
suitable for me so I've iron collar
Ptolemy says listen he says you don't
understand he says if it's a shame
that's what's going to be in the future
we're going to listen to the words of
God being taught to us 24 hours a day he
says my brother too is that you should
want it you're here midsr share when the
Mushaf comes we're going to spend our
time we're not going to be running
around trying to make a panels for
anymore we're going to be running around
trying to understand her and trying to
plumb the depths of times I have more
clarity inside of what it is that we
already have in order to get closer and
closer to God we're going to stop over
here and it's a sham we shall continue
tomorrow with the verses
