[Music]
I want to thank Rabbi k for organizing
and welcome Torah anytime to our
Zar this
is okay tonight's Su what we're going to
learn about is the mid of
humility and all the benefits of being
humble in so many aspects of a person's
life
literally in this the background
it's
page letter V please
and MOA was tremendously humble un
of now what's the background what's the
background in par towards the end of the
par
the
says Miriam and
aarin were
upset they had a claim a tinina on M
raenu the story
goes mha in the earlier part of the
parish
asked for some help it was too difficult
for him to carry Claus all on his
shoulders CLA had began to complain they
needed food they needed this and M said
I gave birth to
them why am I running this all by myself
and the agreed and said we're going to
give you
sh and they're going to get a little bit
of your R of
your was he took some of the put it onto
the there were two people who didn't
make it into the group of 70 but
prophesized in dependently
El
Anda and Miriam were standing together
and Miriam
overheard Tora give a little
C you know what that is a
little a sigh more than that
it's probably has no
definition in any other
language that's
right NE to their
wives he they're probably going to be
all alone just like
me that's
what tus
said Miriam found out
thatu had separated himself from his
wife he he did it not because he wanted
to he was commanded Dam said you now are
on call for CLA you stopped being a
private person you now became a
is
completely no one was given that heter
Aaron was
an Aaron was was was he was the K Miriam
was the reiton of
clam she had a husband
M was given this commandment they
weren't aware where it came from and
Miriam didn't realize that had said this
and Miriam mistakenly thought that her
brother was at
fault for separating himself
from so as the par this portion
begins and they said
we
all at that time was everybody
saw also
said had the on his on his chest he was
wired in like I'm wired over
here he was wired in W right Mish but
directly up above M
so this
is and then the T interrupts so to speak
the story and gives a piece of
information a
narrative was the most humble person Al
call
that
interesting he was what does the add by
this K Al on the face of the land he was
the most and In Heaven There were more
UNS he was the most humble
person let's pick up and so what
happens I want all three of you out and
tells off
mam when I speak to you Miriam when I
speak to you you get it but it's in a
dream in a
dream he is he has a connection with me
I speak to him like two people like a
person speaks to his friend as we're
sitting here together RAB and we're all
T we're all here
together that's the way I speak to
M with
Clarity without any riddles
he can see more than anybody else can
see like the picture
of why don't you have respect why don't
you have any
respect it would seem that Miriam
andaron because he's included didn't
understand the M
ofu didn't understand where
set the record straight if you pay
attention to the end of
the when the T gives a little bit of a
eulogy onu and it tells us about his
accomplishments
like this concept of face to
face that's what they say abouta and
what does it come from
his because as the
says how does bring that madga and
obviously what we need to know is if the
is telling us this story what does it
mean for me and you what are we supposed
to do about it with this
introduction
why the fact that
the fact that Miriam and Aaron are
saying L about mha speaking negatively
about him why does he have to be an
onov you can't speak negative about
anybody whether they're an onov or
not
says sain if maybe the point is thatu
didn't say anything because he's an un
if that's the point well you don't have
to be the biggest UN in the world not to
say anything smaller univ other people
you know they're average ons there are
many people sitting over
here they're not the but they still
don't answer back they know not to
answer
back you don't have to be the biggest on
of to get to such a madga
many people do that
right many people could do
that besides for that I have another
question what were they thinking was as
we read the p
RAB asks the Zer do they really think
they're on the Madre
OFA I mean who is the one who went up to
shamay to get the Tyra who went up
Miriam went up Aaron went
up so what are you
thinking look what
he did look what he accomplished he went
up to sh you didn't what are you
thinking says the Z I want to tell you
your site I'll tell you where their
mistake came
from they knew that M raenu went up but
they thought he was awarded that and
anybody could have
it needs to give the T you need to Big
be a bigadic Misha was a bigadic for
sure
100% but there are many sikim if he
would have chosen some Aaron could have
done it
too the fact that he went
up sometimes a person is given a
big not for himself you know there's a
very famous story with the SAG
Reb sag Reba the old one a
balus he had a few
balab they were very wealthy and when
people would come to the rebba and they
would need
s for the but the Reb would sent to his
balab one particular a of shabas Al mon
came she had two of her children became
she had twin boys both became and she
had no money she was an ala she had no
husband and she said I need what it was
it I don't know 10,000 rubles or
whatever it was I need so the
rebba called in one of his gab right
away bring y y this mitz is going to be
for y so he calls in y
he tells him listen this and this needs
this and this amount of money please
take care of
it okay he says take care of it after
chabas no problems shabas after chabas
he gives her half the
amount instead of giving her 10 10,000
gave her five two and a half per kid
which is very
nice later that week he had a big in his
business and he immediately connected
the dots
immediately say he ran to the Reb says
rebba the rebba didn't tell me how I was
I was having a little bit of a hard time
with my business I was a little tight on
cash but if the rebba would have told me
how important it was of course I would I
would have stretched
myself and the SAG rebba said to him
do you're making a mistake you have more
money than you need what do you need all
that money
for what do you need all that money
for the ter is I have to give because
everybody comes to me you're my you're
my that's our deal if you don't want to
be
my found me other it's okay you don't
have to
be what you have you think you have it
because it belong to there because it
belongs to you
you don't need so much I told you to
give it to her you didn't want besid her
she got it already from somebody
else so Miriam and Aaron
said needs someone to come up to sh and
bring down the
to your dager you're so big your dag is
because you needed to be the we're also
we're
also but whatever so therefore look at
the of
it wasn't his
own like
like so therefore you have that money to
be able to give out what the rebba needs
so therefore you're doing that who want
in over here
anybody you just have to be a big and
you be able to go up
to
that's I
know we're getting there we're talking
about their
mistake and the gar says that
whenu was told that CL
made the
agle what does it mean
my you're
only because I want to learn and I want
him to have them to have a rebi if I
don't need I don't need you
either ra so go down
meaning sayashi brings down when cl's
always been a Ze for 38 years in the
midbar didn't speak to could you
imagine yeah take a look in Rashi coming
up in a few pares for 38 years we're not
going to have a cup of coffee Misha no
you mean when I need you to talk to I
need to talk to you're not talk
to why because his whole job is to Serv
as so Miriam and Aaron's mistake let's
be clar Miriam and Aaron's mistake was
was they knew M had a greater level of
they knew thatu had access to the way
they didn't but they attributed that to
the fact that needs a he decided to
choose when when not I don't need
a that was their mistake what's the
teret as you've been hanging around Zar
for a while you're on track
that's their mistake thinking that
anybody could have not anybody but other
other you should know
that is what got him up to sh
that's why he
was somebody else you need the to
be
says says when he sees a person who's
low either the says I pick him up to me
or
or I go down to him I lower
myself now tonight um we
have tonight um one of one of my 43y old
Booker Surly Gelb got engaged to a think
a 35 or 36 year old girl first time for
both so instead of the maral she we're
going to be going after after this I'm
going to be going to to
give and go and and
go but so if I want to share one or two
maral incorporate in the Zar listen to
this
fascinating do you want to know
the who do we passing like
RAB B correct
what was the Mila of Hill and B Hill
they were always humble anus take a look
what the
says this is my M right now it's
happening this is the
m why and how was Bas hillo why did they
get the nod why were Bas hillo the ones
that were were chosen says the M the
following things number
one because they were
easy right somebody came to the door the
teach
me said what you what are you wasting my
time you SC said
[Music]
no B were
no
easy
one they would get Al how do we
translate
Alo Al how do we say Al in English I got
all these
what no it's
a they were like they had embarrassment
they always let you know what the other
opinion was they didn't just say their
opinion they said the other person's
opinion and they said the other opinion
first they always gave credibility to
the other
opinion so they had these Milas they
were Noah they were easy they were BHA
they always made sure to say the other
person's opinion did it first okay ask
Mar a very
basic as a
very do you know how
you how do
we what do we do we do what Ms right we
don't Bing like people cuz they're nice
guys is not
oh I want to pass like him MS me to be a
mish aon's a nice guy let passing like
him bunch of nice people to open up the
door for you what's going
on because they
themselves whoever is knows what
understand is right because you're
macked in yourself
the ter
is Tyra is Tas
Ms if a
person doesn't have a sense of self and
he or she is always looking for the
truth they'll have
theay to get the EMS the
mid of B hillo brought them to the EMS
because they they had the MS therefore
the was like them it was a catalyst
let's read the of the Mahar let's see
what he
says
because the fact that they said words
first they mentioned them that means
there was honesty and integrity you know
what that means they were honest and
they and they told that's the siba that
the should
be because they have
me and therefore it's not
about when a
person when a person gets angry when a
person gets be what happens
I'm right so he moves away from the
truth he moves away from
the you know what that means he wants to
win it's good for playing basketball
it's good for baseball it's fine right
but not when it comes to to not when it
comes to Tyra when it comes to Tyra it's
called tyus em so the more humble the
person is the more tic they are the more
tic they are the more they're m to
the that's the key says the
mar because they were Al which means to
say because they were willing to hear
what other people said and give
credibility Maybe I'm
wrong let me what you have to
say every single married person those of
us who are married those of us who are
not yet married
Al that when you have
communication her and one person hears
what the other person hears so then you
have a chance for shom
bias but if a person is because a person
can't hear so then forget about it
because they're not hearing the other
person they're
not you want to help
me con you mean you have to recognize
you have to recognize that she's allowed
to have another opinion opinion yeah
that doesn't work that
way she's right you always
win Al is get the humility that a person
has brings you closer to soon the quotes
a g gar says that when a person
has a person
has listen to the words of the mar
listen to this
says the this
is I want you to
know when a person what do you mean the
S rebit told
me to give money
but I understand better right I'm not
going to listen to the rabbi soon we'll
see I want to tell you another story
you're out of
the a person who is humble and
understands runs the world he's taking
care of me so you're in his
R why
when a person is humble so who's who's
who who owns you who takes
you're
but you're
not you're on your own buddy you're on
your own
discussed him a FR Waxman Rabbi Waxman
SCH and this week at I had
the to go I drove two hours to
Philadelphia to the Wells Fargo Areno
Arena 25 30,000
people what Pride to be surrounded by
people that all they want to do is m
EMS they're looking for EMS they're
looking for the truth they spend their
whole lives them their wives their
family for what to learn tyus
emus he told over the following small
story it's so small but it's so big he
said like this he said I was a a few
years ago had to go visit family member
in my
modities and I was coming out of the
building in the parking lot and I see
with my own eyes a very well-dressed
individual he had every designer label
on everyone and his car which was also a
nice car was brought back by the
attendant and I hear him Point see him
and hear him screaming at the attendant
and pointing to a little scratch
and the lotion that he uses he had what
you call a meltdown you know
meltdown a meltdown the cless ne that
attendant that was over there got it the
cup it was mamish he lost it over the
scratch two weeks later he said two
weeks
later my cousin tells me is in
mg he by mistake hit a parked
car and broke the
fender he found out whose car it is went
into the Bas medish Tracked Down the
owner and told the owner I have to tell
you I hit your car I broke your
Fender the fellow looks up from the
gimar and he
says I have my car for
driving if it drives with a broken fence
the way it does with a fixed Fender it's
fine you don't owe me
anything no
problem it drives just as good with a
broken
Fender that's what can do for a person
and that's what an does for a person and
that's the reason
that the reason that nobody was like M
raenu was because M raenu you think he
didn't know let's explain I want to
psychologically for a minute when a
person
thinks I don't know how to do this I
don't know how to do that I don't a
person God forbid thinks he's a
loser that's not
an when a person knows I can go talk
to was taller than everybody the mission
says
right a
person knew he had these qualities but
he took absolutely no credit for them
I'm taller than others I have mess other
because gave it to me they gave it to me
and therefore he was humble because of
what he had the more he had going for
him the more mes he had the more humble
he was because nothing he took credit
for
this everything comes from you what am I
I'm just a CLE I'm just a CLE I'm just
and therefore the more I'm
a
have the person gets all of the because
and when you have that attitude so then
you don't get upset if somebody says
something wrong to you if somebody cuts
you off if somebody bangs your bumper
Asma Asma what's the big deal had
someone said something negative to you
Asma what's the big deal anyway
it's you give me all these
