Alone Surrounded By Wicked Generation - JEWISH HASHKAFA (133) SERIES FINALE

[Music] we are starting a new week and at the same time completing a Monumental work that uh we've been studying together for nearly four and a half years together uh the Jewish ashfa series based on the uh extraordinary seph by the kishu Moren the Kish shalom uh the um and literally the uh our teacher and guide in every move of ashfa over these last four and a half years that we've uh toiled and toiled over every word that he wrote in his SE and we're uh here to uh learn together the final segment the final Shure of this uh Jewish ashfa series tonight's sh is for the and for our own very dear raim benan Leana SAR s Lana Ben Lana ysep Ben Leana aavid and also very uh kind sponsorship by uh dear uh uh friend uh the Diana aosta family bless them with and uh thank you to all of you that have been watching and learning with us uh this series and all of the other lectures that we've been doing over the uh past decade or so uh but this particular Series has literally been nearly half uh of the last last uh decade we've been studying this particular uh uh book about Jewish ashfa which uh now more than ever is uh needed as we see the world uh becoming more and more confused more and more uh similar to what we actually have been reading in the books for all of these years uh so that we got here but uh we're not finished yet this uh particular uh lecture is certainly uh not you know not going to be able to sum up everything we've learned throughout the uh last 140 or so lectures uh but it certainly would uh put uh that exclamation point on everything that we've learned uh especially when a person takes what the Kish wrote many decades ago what the sages wrote hundreds and hundreds of years ago and what the T itself uh has in it literally over 3,000 years ago and you put this all up together and you see what we're living in today is nothing new and in fact it's uh something that uh is uh old news but nonetheless doesn't make it any uh less difficult one of the big uh issues that uh we see today uh is of course you know you look at the news you know if it's not uh discussing the uh the war and the attacks uh it's uh by the uh you know uh you know Hamas and the terrorists and Iran and you know all of the countries that hate the Jews now if it's not that then you're actually seeing the real war at hand uh you know which is the war against the Torah uh the war against the Torah and unfortunately the uh the anti-Semitism in the world something that we're discussing a lot more in our other new series that we start which is the war of Amal based on the writings ofas but uh you're seeing that the war against the tah is uh picking up and it's more than what we're used to seeing everyone that's been in the religious world for some time knows that there's been a war against the tah pretty much uh since the since we received the tah but what we've become accustomed to what we've uh in so many words have become come numb to uh is no longer something that we're dealing with uh rather we're seeing a new war against the Torah and uh taking on uh a uh new face a new chapter a new weapon each and every single day and uh who's better than the Kish uh that is going to teach us how to deal with all of this because a person can say listen I want to be religious I am religious but what can I do that I'm surrounded by Wicked people I'm alone surrounded by Wicked people whether those Wicked people are the anti-semites marching you know with all types of slogans that call for the annihilation of Israel and all of the Jews that are even outside of Israel or it is the wicked people that are in the Jewish community that uh will sometimes be more uh hateful towards the Torah than uh than even the anti-semites or it's even the wicked people in somebody's household so a person can say listen I want to be righteous I want to be good I want to fight for hasem I want to fight for Torah but I'm surrounded by Wicked people what can I do I'm alone well don't fear my son the k is going to teach us that you're not alone and in fact your situation is not even unique and that is one of the things that a person must realize right from the get-go because the moment you think that your situation is unique the moment you think that your situation is new at that moment you have decided to fail because if if it is new if it is unique then it does not have a solution an ancient solution from the holy Torah but if it's not new and in fact if many of the sages have discussed it and not only that our forefathers dealt with it with much greater difficulty than you are dealing with it right now then perhaps the solution is there because the only real purpose for history is for us to learn our lessons even though the average person doesn't really want to learn from his parents he wants to learn on his own skin he doesn't want to learn from the old man he wants to learn from his new and uh and uh you know a ambitious young uh young life he doesn't want to learn from the Ancients he wants to learn from the newer the reformed the modern but obviously these are all foolish decisions anyone that's has even an ounce of wisdom in them even an aspiration to have wisdom knows that if you want to have wisdom if you want to have success then you must learn from history and even more so from Jewish history from Jewish teachings from the holy Torah so today when we received a horrible notice in the uh sh by our own dear Rim protesting against a religious newspaper a religious newspaper in Israel that had a caricature demonizing the religious community but not just the religious community whole rather demonizing the aim the Torah Scholars and again if this came from the Lefty liberals of the or all of the other Lefty liberal papers that are more proas than they are pro- Jews then you know this would not even be discussed it's expected but when this is coming from a what's supposed to be a religious newspaper a religious organization then well they call themselves you know the you know the the Zionist SL religious the religious Zionist which we've talked about that there are some among them that are very good righteous people and have a very different definition to Zionism and then there's of course the wicked that are worse than even the people that are uh you know marching foras because they're pretending to be righteous they're pretending to be religious but in reality they're against the tat and this is one of them this is one of these examples where you see them making a picture of the Israeli soldiers and one of them in the front has a SE seat so it's an Essence indicating that of course you could be religious but still in the Army but that's not the worst of it it's not that's not necessarily a bad thing there are religious people in the Israeli Army that's not necessarily a new thing but rather they're showing somebody on a on uh over here being carried injured or dead but there is a Torah scholar with a book telling people telling the soldiers don't worry the learning that I'm doing right now is for his for his good health in so many words they're having a Torah scholar sit on top of an injured Soldier saying listen don't worry I'm still learning to offer his health as if the Torah Scholars are practically a enemy of the Jewish people that the Torah does not protect its people and in fact the Torah is taking advantage of the people now if you would have seen this in Nazi Germany then it wouldn't be a surprise and in fact some people that have seen this that have some common sense asked them uh is there a German translation to this because this seems very similar to what we saw in Nazi Germany but of course unfortunately uh this is what's happening in world this is something that's coming out and when you're surrounded by a world that has many many Wicked people of all shapes and sizes some are Jews some are Gentiles some are black some are white some are tall some are short some are male some are female some are young some are old some live in Israel some live outside of Israel in so many words they're in all places all sizes a person has to know that the war is significant and in may very well be very close to home or even inside their home and if you do not know how to deal with this then certainly you already at a uh at a point where you are losing so the Kish has taught us the key details and mechanics of the Jewish mind and how the ideology of a Jew is supposed to look like now of course many non-jews that are righteous no high that have been learning with with us over the last several years specifically in this particular series have benefited tremendously from it because the advice that you get here and the guidance and the teachings that the Kish is teaching us is certainly applicable to people of all walks of life but the point being here is that we have to know what to do in the world that we're living in in a world that seems new that seems like this is the worst we've ever seen a world that seems like I've never seen it this bad every other day you hear somebody saying this is the worst generation or the tests we have in this generation of the worst or this is a especially uh weak generation or uh no one has ever seen such suffering or such difficulties you know there's always these uh you know I don't know if I would want to call it exaggerated but in some cases they are exaggerated statements uh because when you're saying this is the worst thing that am has ever seen then you really are minimizing the travesty that we've endured over the last several thousand years uh you know the destruction of the bet mikdash uh first one the second one the the the the pgrs the inquisitions but even aside from all of those main tragedies everything that transpired before them that brought the tragedy so to say that this is the worst we've ever seen really uh it's uh it's hard to uh to really imagine that uh you know anybody could really say that with some clarity because if you look at what our holy books say about what happened back then you would say listen we've seen this before we survive par we'll survive this the question is who's going to survive it's not a matter of whether we're going to survive it's not a matter of whether Torah is going to survive that is a certainty that is a promise from as he swears on his his own name the question is who who will have the proper ideology the proper asfa needed in order to survive now in the last lecture in this series that uh we did we discussed in the six chapter and a third uh a third um segment of it where the Kish was talking about how you know this whole concept or foundational belief that we have in Prophecy but of course it's not in order for us to learn uh how to be prophets even though it's anything is a possibility if a person follows the instructions uh but the point being is is that here the Kish is trying to tell us where we've been why we were much more likely to be prophets at the time of Adar at the time of abam yov the time of the tribes uh the 12 tribes at the time of mosenu why everyone was a prophet back then and how there was a severe degradation of the generations you know over the these last several thousand years ultimately getting to a point where 2,000 years ago uh Hashem decided that there's not going to be any more prophecy uh in you know gifted to people in the same fashion as it was in the past uh the uh there are uh bits of Prophecy given to people that have uh all types of uh you know mental illnesses or or children even uh but there arees there are different things that uh we still do have and a person that has really learned this series is not really worried so much about the uh whether they do have prophecy or not uh or even whether to acquire prophecy or not really a person that has their eyes open and in their head is uh simply going to uh look at things of how do I survive the situation that I'm in forget about being a prophet forget about being the uh the biggest scholar in the world forget about everything how do I survive mentally spiritually and even physically in this world that every other day unfolds another layer of Tuma getting us closer and closer to the 50th level of tum that the said we had to get to before the uh the the end before mashiah arrives and every day it seems like we've reached the 50th level of Tuma until the following day comes and something else happens so the has been telling us that yes Adar the first human was created as a perfect human being very very different physically and spiritually than any of us could ever imagine but he lowered himself as a result of his actions but that still was much more significant than we could imagine and even his son K that committed the first murder still had prophecy that he was able to speak to God and after that murder of course he was lowered but still was a vessel fit to speak to Hashem 10 Generations passed from Adam until Noah and the situation in the world deteriorated until a decided to destroy the world leaving only Noah his wife n who is one of the descendants of K and his three sons shemam and yit and their wives and the world in essence had to restart this is the reason why at Mount sa officially made the uh the nation of Israel into a nation we were before that we were B is we were the sons of of Israel sons of yov then we became am which is also called the Jews Jewish people while the rest of the world are called noahides why noahides because everyone that's in the world today Jews and Gentiles alike are from Noah and they're called noahides rather than adamites because even though everything started from Adam it was all destroyed and restarted from Noah and all of the Nations come from Noah's Three Sons Shem and and of course the Jewish people come from shim which we'll discuss further why that is significant today now after 10 years after I'm sorry generations of idol worship immorality and Despicable Behavior becoming the behavior across the board all over the world and Hashem deciding to destroy the world the generation of Noah says the Kish came and went and the generations after him lost their understanding and knowledge and deteriorated to the level of animals as the mishna says 10 Generations from Noah to abah came and enraged their creator meaning they did not fulfill man's purpose in the world and the entire world was like an empty vessel unwanted expected to return to chaos until Abraham ainu appeared and lit up the world washing away the filth of the generation remove removing the imperfections revealing spiritual Beauty the wisdom of the generation illuminated it everyone recognized the secret of the world the secret of the soul of man created in God's image and likeness forsaking the pleasures of human beings basking in the glow of wisdom learning 400 chapters in the tractate of aod that was taught to them by in his wisdom Aram converting the men and Sarah his wife converting the women since then the learning of T has not ceased AB passed it on to and to yob and yov studied for 14 years in the Yesa of Shem and EV and passed his Torah to his sons yobu and his sons went down to Egypt and the the divine presence went with them as it said in the page 29a that is that the Jewish Nation merited to perceive the to raise themselves above the inhibiting habits and to Delight in the pleasure of hashem's presence now although the Kish certainly intended to write more than this we could certainly understand what he wrote here and build on it and also if we dare extrapolate from all of the teachings that we've learned from him from other sages to perhaps give a imagery of what it could look like if we weree the great hat of the Kish for half a second not that we are like him not that we're even uh a grain of sand under his feet but again when you learn from someone for so long you understand the direction of where things are going and we can build on everything that we've learned but first let's understand what we've actually read as we have done over the last 4 and a half years the generation of Noah the K says came and went meaning that the generation of Noah when they were here they were powerful they were extraordinarily wealthy extraordinarily healthy the average person was living in hundreds of years if you look at the end of the book of Genesis I'm sorry the end of the uhit in the first uh first of the T starts talking about the ages and then you go at the end of no furthermore goes into the ages of how long everyone lived you see that literally people lived 800 900 years there was no sickness in the world Giants were walking among Society like it was normal there was the all types of things that ignorant people like to have all types of conspiracy theories about there's no conspiracy Torah clearly says there was Giants in many places in the Torah and it didn't end at the time of Noah it continued even at the time of mosu we had the uh Isel go to Canan to the uh uh to the land of Israel and they said they saw the neim over there the the anim which were the descendants of the neim so there was clearly Giants no when people say well if they were giants how come we haven't found the bones simply the answer is there's a lot of things we haven't found because the world is huge there are things that could very well be buried under your own house that you're not aware of there are things that are not even buried under your own house there could literally be things inside your house that you're not aware of that perhaps your spouse is hiding from you that perhaps your kids are hiding from you there are plenty of things that we're not aware of that are literally right under right under our nose and just because people are looking doesn't mean that they've looked everywhere we haven't even literally scratch the surface in archaeology and all of the people that are digging everywhere to find anything is not uh it's not something so simple like people think oh because it's big the world is much bigger we're still discovering new species we're still discovering new places there's still many many places in the world that have not even seen the modern technology for even a moment because no one has gone there but needless to say anyone that is familiar with the desert and the the the Amazon and just in essence just the area of the world where many of the things that are in the toah take place different parts of Africa different parts of you know the Middle East over there you're talking about a massive amount of land that we have not even scratched the surface in in in looking into anything most of the efforts that are spent today in archaeology and the all of the historical uh documenting is based on things that are easy to find or already you know uh out in the open and people spend their entire lives Decades of years just studying what we already have so anyway the fact that we haven't found Giants doesn't really mean anything secondly who says we haven't just because it's not uh you know it's not being modeled in your local Museum uh doesn't necessarily mean that uh people haven't found it there are certain uh uh uh people that have seen it in fact in the written nearly 1,600 years ago there are several accounts of different sages that discussed seeing these literally walking in you know next to them next to the bones next to the fossils next to all of this now if a person chooses to ignore the talmud ignore the oral Tora ignore the document the mo the best and uh clearest and most authentic documentation of human history and then simply uh reject everything that the Torah says at the same time then obviously you can't help such a person either way we're seeing that the generation of Noah was not like today in a sense of the iPhones and iPads and Technology but were very much the same in many other aspects of humanity the immorality the uh people deciding that they're going to redefine marriage people uh stealing and that becoming the uh pretty much the standard as unfortunately has become today it's a uh stealing in business is very much uh you know it's not even an elephant in the room it's uh widely discussed and you know and done excessively if you're not stealing then uh you know you're doing apparently something wrong in the business world because apparently that's the way to get ahead according to society you know you're seeing all of the major corporations that are the ones that you buy their their phones and their cars and their whatever it is every so often they have to pay fines every so often they have to you know go to court deal with lawsuits why because they're stealing they're stealing information they're stealing patents they're stealing products they're stealing all types of things and but because they're so big and so massive and in essence necessary to the economy because they employ so many people all they have to do is just you know write a big check and then move on with their life but stealing is expect expected accepted unless you can't afford to steal meaning you can't afford to get caught but small businesses big businesses friends family every day there are cases upon cases where people got caught stealing if you could afford it that means you could do it again if you can't afford it that means you'll have to pay in different ways and then you can do it again simple that's society for you this is not new Torah tells us clearly that at the time of Noah stealing became standard so much so that people could not even prosper and they're just to provide for themselves because as soon as they put a sack of nuts out there to sell people say okay can I can I test it to see before I want to buy something sure he takes one and then he tells his friend you everybody starts taking one one nobody wants to buy everybody takes one one one before he knows it the entire Community came to try it not because they really want to buy it but because they want to take something free until they empty out the whole bag so that's why there are laws in the tah of how what you're allowed to try what you're allowed to test you can't just go into a perfume store with no intention whatsoever to ever buy anything just to get some free perfume that's considered stealing the immorality at the time of Noah we've discussed many times where it was so tragic and disgusting that the filth of people affected the air to the extent where even the animals started going inter species the lion wanted to marry the Sheep the Sheep wanted to marry the zebra the zebra wanted to marry a raccoon and all types of things that are against nature against the way the world was created but everyone knew that this is the opposite of what good is everyone knew that this is the opposite of the will of hem there were no atheists everyone knew God created the world they just simply felt that they don't need to listen to God they could just do whatever they want however they want because they're so powerful and they're so big and no one ever gets sick there's no cancer there's no AIDS there's no uh STDs there's no uh coughs nothing people live for hundred of years until one day the guy sneezes and he dies on a spot until then he never got sick he never even got a common cold there was no Corona virus there's no vaccine there was no Pharmaceuticals back then so everyone felt like why why why should I do chuva and even if I'm going to do chuva even if I'm going to repent for the bad things that I did I'll do it you know next year or maybe not even next year I'll do it in a 100 years from now since I'm only I'm still young I'm only 300 years old I'm only 300 years old I still got a long time my father lived till 950 still got a long time so I could still go and do whatever I want for another 3 400 years easy and that was the mentality people took the gift that God gave them and used it against God and this is not so different than today where you see many people take the gifts that gave them the exorbitant amount of money the exorbitant amount of comfort luxury Freedom access to all types of things and instead of utilizing it to publicize the name of the creator that gave it to you instead of using that to serve the Creator that gave it to you what do people do they make websites against God they start worshiping Idols they start doing things that are God specifically said not to do and redefining the law saying listen he said no but I say yes and no one thinks that the end is near and no one thinks that they're going to get caught and even if they're going to get caught everyone thinks that they are clever enough to get out of it and the generation of Noah was the same and K says that the generation of Noah came and went came and went meaning they were here they're gone the only thing we have about them is simply the story the story of an entire civilization of people that were gifted above and beyond and lost there's no writings from them there's no memories of them nothing else all of the wealth and power that they built for themselves gone with the flood the same as what's going to happen to all of the people are going against God today so he built a tower he built five Towers he has a real estate company he has a conglomerate he has all types of things yes yes he does but one day Hashem will separate him from those things he doesn't have to get all of those things to go to zero he could just have him go to zero and give those buildings and that that that company and those products and those ideas to Simply somebody else perhaps even his enemy and what about this person gone he won't even be a distant memory they won't even keep his picture on the wall they rather put the new owner's pet dog on the wall picture of him wearing a scarf so while everyone thinks that they're going to live forever and lives their life as if they're going to live forever focusing on accumulating more and more stuff that they're never going to use and never going to need and forgetting about achieving their purpose this is not a new thing the generation of no did the same thing and K says they lost their understanding and knowledge and deteriorated to the level of animals what does it mean to deteriorate to the level of animals says that years ago he went to a zoo and Theo he was confused when he went when he got to the area where the monkeys were because apparently there was a fight among the monkeys because one of the monkeys was married to his mother and then the mother was also married to one of the other brothers and in so many words these monkeys had this ancestral relationship that caused them to fight constantly and every one of them had a human name attached to it but what can you expect from a bunch of monkeys other than M other than them doing whatever animals do the problem is that in a society today that is promoting Satanism atheism and all types of other isms that are declaring war against God on a regular basis the same outcome is happening you see those very same people that promote Darwinism and the different versions of it that are coming out we came from monkeys we came from amibas we came from whatever what you're also seeing is that those very same people are the people that are justifying all types of immorality in the world where all of a sudden why is it a problem for him to marry his mother or marry his sister or marry a you know a child or or do all types of things that are according to all conservative normal people all people that have a belief in God this should never be but to the atheistic mentality if they haven't gotten there they are getting there why because if you came from a monkey if you believe that you came from a monkey and the monkey is allowed to marry his mother and the monkey is allowed to marry her father or her brother whoever it is because they're monkeys what's the difference between you and the monkey technically you should learn from your forefathers if you think you came from an amiba or a monkey or whatever it is and that's actually what's happening that's what happening in the world today where you have all types of so-called scholars in the secular world going on TED talks and all types of other scholarship uh speeches and lectures trying to justify all that is forbidden trying to justify all that is immoral instead of calling pedophilia crime they're saying it's a preference and literally justifying everything that God says is forbidden and this is happening on a massive scale now of course those that are unaware going to say nah come on he's exaggerating until you start looking and you realize that it is happening on a massive scale all over the world literally the the the things that we've discussed in issues of immorality when we made the film and when we discussed those lectures about in an event a few years ago as bad as they were back then they've gotten even worse since and the point is is that the generation of Noah deteriorated to the level of animals why because they abandoned the teachings of a that was available to them spoke to God Noah spoke to God these were not people that didn't you know didn't have any source of Truth the source of Truth was readily available to anyone who wanted it there wasn't a lack of belief no one thought that they came from an amiba no one thought that they came from a monkey everyone knew who God was and what he did but they just simply didn't want to listen because they wanted to follow their desires and that's why when people come to me and unfortunately every day there's a new person that comes with a new tragic story of how one of their friends or family members you know they believe that they're possessed they believe that somebody is uh deciding for them they believe that they're being controlled because suddenly they're doing all types of wicked things they're doing all types of you know heinous things that are not like who they are no no you're not understanding they don't need to have a debuk they don't need to be possessed they don't need to you know have some type of foreign entity control them in order for them to do wicked things all they need to do is just simply abandon God abandon the Torah and it's only a matter of time before they will do the worst possible things known to man The more a person follows their desires the more they satiate their desires and get themselves used to giving themselves whatever they desire the more they will end up Desiring this is feeding the monster the monster is never satiated the more you feed it the more hungry it becomes just like said there's a small member in a man's body if you starve it you will be satiated forever but if you feed it you will never be saturated this is in the issues of morality the same thing that schl says if you found honey he's referring to a woman eat only a little bit meaning don't be together every time every day don't be a rooster why if you are together too much eventually you'll be disgusted if you spend every single minute of your day with your spouse eventually you're not going to be want you're not even going to want to eat together you're not even going to want to hold hands you're not going to want to even look at each other why too much too much of anything that's material is going to end up being bad the same thing as if somebody had a favorite food let's say it was like uses is honey honey is delicious for people that like honey but if you give those very same people that love honey honey all the time breakfast lunch and dinner nothing else breakfast lunch and dinner like this week's par is complaining about meat they want meat hasm says no problem you're gonna have meat but you're not gonna have meat just for one day you're going to have meat for breakfast lunch and dinner not for just today not for just this week not for just this uh a couple of weeks you're going to have for a whole month breakfast lunch and dinner non-stop meat eventually they literally had meat coming out of their nose they hated meat no everyone wanted to become a vegan vegan vegetarian but it was a punishment so even if somebody likes honey if they eat too much of it eventually they'll throw up the generation of Noah deteriorated to the level of animals because they abandoned the tah they abandoned the teachings that who made available in the world they had ready ready available access to a prophet to Noah to his children no one doubted whether God existed or not but they abandoned because they wanted to follow their desires 10 Generations from Noah to Abraham came and enraged the Creator even after Hashem destroyed the world the next 10 Generations continued the same Wicked behavior that the generation of no was doing and even worse in some cases idolatry to the extent where just 360 years later after the flood nimod spearheaded a project worldwide project building the Tower of Babel a tower that can go and be used to declare war against God meaning they weren't atheists they're obviously declaring war against someone they believe in but they didn't want God they want to declare war now of course all of us are looking in hindsight and seeing how stupid these people are but the reality is there are many people doing the same thing today they may not be building a Tower with a ultimate intention to go and throw Spears at the sky but they're doing things that are much much worse by declaring war against the tah declaring war against those that learn toah those that serve AEM and Kish continues and tells us that these this 10 Generations between Noah and these 10 Generations between Noah and aaham did not fulfill man's purpose in the world and the entire world was like an empty vessel unwanted expected to return to chaos until abah ainu appeared and lit it up now before we go into abah ainu we have to delve a little bit more into what the k is saying here about man not fulfilling the purpose of the world the the purpose of man in the world one of my dear T sent me a letter by the biggest Rabbi today in one of the biggest in the world and certainly one of the biggest if not the biggest G in America and the which I spoke to Once years ago in our fight against the Heretics that invite uh missionaries to synagogues he speaks to the point and despite his extensive experience in many years he has not slowed down for even a moment and he recently published a letter that he calls a message from the master designer in response to all of the people that whether the religious or non-religious Jews are asking the question that is an old question where was God during the Holocaust but now they've renewed it and saying where was God during October 7th why did he allow it to happen and he wrote this recently and we'll see that from the letter itself it's a little lengthy but it's certainly worth reading it there is only one way to describe the event which took place in Israel on October 7th and that is that on that day God intervened in the workings of the world and sent a message to the Jews of Israel if not for divine intervention how else can one explain how on that day Kamas forces were able to Massacre over a thousand Jews and and wound many times that number pillage and Destroy tens of settlements and take over 300 men and women and children and infants as hostages a massive wall separated Gaza from Israel equipped with sophisticated electronic devices able to detect any attempt at tampering surveillance Towers supervised any activity within the wall Israel controlled the airspace with fighter bombers and armed helicopters it had a well-trained army with tanks and armored vehicles to respond to any attempt at Invasion the only equipment available to Arab forces was motorcycles and trucks yet despite all this Hamas forces were able to dismantle the electronic devices amass tractors to breach the wall and invade Southern Israel with hundreds of heavily armed troops moving on motorcycles the warnings of the surveillance post of military activity and Gaza were not taken seriously the Air Force was not called into action and it took 4 hours and in some places eight hours for Israeli forces to counter attack by that time Kamas forces had wrecked havoc and death on Southern Israel Israel was shaken to its core the unimaginable had transpired the Army which was the basis of their security had failed them it also became chillingly clear that if at the same time theah had invaded the North and the Arabs in the occupied territories had decided on an uprising this would have caused widespread Devastation and loss of life of unspeakable Dimensions the nation suddenly felt vulnerable weak and without confidence in its survival what transpired was unimaginable and to this day no one has explained how it happened for in truth there is no reasonable explanation the only explanation is that the hand of God orchestrated the failings of the army and brought Devastation to the Jews of Israel it was God speaking to his people we have no prophets to tell us the exact words of that message but based on the words of the Torah and other prophecies it's likely ran something like the following for over 75 years here theen Feldman is in essence telling us this is what in essence if a prophet was here telling us what's happening and why everything happened this is what he would say for every for over 75 years you have created a state on my land with an educational system institutes for scientific research industry Commerce Agriculture and general Prosperity but you omitted one element from your state you deliberately left me out of the picture I chose the Jews at Mount Sai to be a nation of servants and a holy people this meant that they were to be a nation devoted to me in every aspect of their lives for this I gave them a Torah where I commanded them to have tiit on their clothing on their heads M on their doorposts I wanted them to testify to my existence on Shabbat and on the holidays to refrain from eating food to dampen their yearning for sanctity to refrain from slander and evil tongue to support the poor and to devote themselves to the study of Torah all of this to overcome their selfish drives for lust and power and to turn them into a holy people to ensure that they remain a holy nation I gave them a land where they would be able to flourish in their Devotion to me without the influence of the nations of the world the Jewish nation was my hope for mankind I created the world so that mankind will overcome evil and accept me as their Sovereign the instrument for reaching this goal would be my nation when the proper time arrives I will appear to them in all my glory and all of mankind will then recognize that man was created to devote himself to my service because the Jewish nation is crucial to carrying out my plans for the world I watch them I watched over them and protected them throughout the ages from the nations of the world who sought to devour them but you decided to twart my plans you decided to use my land to remake Jews into a nation like the nations of the world you wanted Jews to be like them and live for the Fulfillment of their appetites and to make wealth and military conquest the Apex of their Glory you wanted Jews to forget that they were meant to be a holy nation I have tried repeatedly to warn you of the evil of your ways I sent you the Yum kipur War the missiles of Saddam Hussein the Gaza missile taxs and sunry other messages to show you cannot build a Jewish nation and leave me out but none of these warnings were to any Avail I became mostly concerned lately when you demonstrated for 3 months against me when generals announced their resignation when profess professors signed petitions when your wealthy donated Millions for advertisements and demonstr demonstrators to block the streets I know the demonstrations were ostensibly against judicial reform to retain the right of the Supreme Court to override the knesset but I also know that for most of you the demonstrations were aimed at my Torah to ensure that the Supreme Court would block any intrusion of religion into your Society I was more concerned on this last Young when many shs in Tel Aviv emptied out into dingo Square for the N Services a time when the heart of whoever identifies as a Jew turns to me in devotion tens of your citizens broke up the services with punching shoving and slogan shouting what was most disturbing is that afterwards there was an insufficient protest against this massive desecration of worship again as a side note we see the repeated offense not just by those that declare war against the tah but also by those that claim to be religious claim to be loyal but don't defend the tah anytime we fight for the sake of God's glory in his name and protest against Wicked people there are always so-called religious people tell us God doesn't need you to fight for him well apparently he destroyed the entire beta mikdash twice because we're not fighting for him as the prophet ET Jeremiah was told by hasem himself if you find one synagogue one Rabbi that's actually fighting for my name that's spreading the truth I'll absolve the entire nation of this offense I won't destroy the BET mdash and the says that Jeremiah went from place to place from sh to sh from mid to Mid and couldn't find one one Rabbi that was protesting for the honor of Hashem everybody was concentrated on their own thing the tuition the uh the regiment the family the uh feeding the poor feeding the rich whatever it was nobody was defending God's honor Jeremiah started crying saying there are no more people of truth and that's where the says hasem decided at that moment to destroy the bet mikdash in essence the same is repeated in but the Felman is saying that the same thing is happening right now meaning it's not just the reformers and the haters of the Torah that are guilty here but it's also the religious people that are guilty for not protesting against this wicked behavior and he continues and he says there was insufficient protest against this massive desecration of worship I began to fear that you might be lost to me forever as my nation I therefore decided to wake you up with a powerful shock I wanted you to realize that heither twoo you were successful in your Wars in your Wars and in building up my land not because of your cleverness or your army but because I watched over you and granted you success I wanted you to see that when I removed my support for you for a moment your cleverness disappeared and your army fell to Pieces it was a blow from of Love made on the day which I set apart for celebrating with you as my nation you are my children whom I love unlimitedly but I had to unleash This Disaster upon you to make you recognize that you have gone astray because I love you I will not permit you to become a nation like all others without the Jews as a that lives to serve God mankind will never reach its goal and my plan at creation will never be realized to make sure you got the message I spare those Jews who have remained faithful to me I well aware that they have many shortcomings but they alone remained faithful to the definition of a Jew as my people the people who receive the Torah the village of TI in whose Yeshiva 1,000 people had gathered to celebrate dance with their throughout the day October 7 he's referring to without even being aware of the advance of the slaughtering enemy who despite their original plans decided to turn away from the settlement the Shabbat observing kibuts directly in the path of the Invaders were bypassed the sh section of ofakim was left untouched while much of the rest of that town was ravaged I could easily have brought you to your knees by having Kamas coordinate their attack with an invasion by the in the north and with an uprising in the territories your [Music] army your army would not have been able to handle that even four hours later but I did not wish to destroy you only to awaken you similarly 6 months hence when Iran will send hundreds of missiles and drones to wipe you out I will not permit a hair of your head to be harmed and all the missiles will be destroyed you are my beloved Nation I love and care for you as a father cares for his son but a father cannot permit his son to sink into Deery and Corruption he's obligated to help him extricate himself from his self-destructive ways you are my children and and and the time has come to remind you that you cannot remake my nation into another nation of the world until you change your ways and begin to Define yourselves as Jews in the true in their true definition you will have to fight for your survival the war with Kamas will never end you cannot defeat those who do not care about life who do not wish to live in peace and whose only desire is to wipe you off the face of the Earth even if you drive them out of Gaza they will ATT back from some other quarter the nations of the world will not come to your assistance they want a world free of Jews Jews make them feel guilty for living their lives devoted to lust and power they are ashamed to say this openly but to the extent that they are able to cloak their hatred and Noble Declarations of humanitarianism they will encourage Kamas to defeat you you must realize that they are not the enemy the enemy is you yourselves and your attempt to obliterate the Jewish people by abandoning the Torah and assimilating it into the culture of the nations of the world once you realize this and return to my Torah your enemies will return to their HS and peace will reign in my land I have confidence in you that you will come to your senses you are after all the children of my beloved Abraham and yob your ancestors stood before me at Mount saai and declared nishma f false prophets LED you astray with their fraudulent Promises of security and an end to anti-Semitism if only you cease observing my Torah and become like all other nations the time has come to reject their false prophecies and return to me it cannot be otherwise for you are my nation up to here is the extraordinary letter by R aen Feldman in essence telling us what a prophet would be telling us if if we were here at the time of the bet mikash or if simply a decided to bring prophecy back even for a moment this is the same thing that the sages and the prophets have told us throughout all of the generations there is no such thing as a punishment without sin there is no such thing as where was God during the Holocaust he was the one that did it where was God during the October 7th he is the one that did it the question should not be where was he the question should be where were we before it happened and this is in essence the same question that we are seeing was asked repeatedly throughout all of the generations I am sure that if there were any other survivors from the generation of Noah aside from Noah and his three sons they would also ask where was God during the flood where was God during in the Tower of Babel where was God during Sodom and gomorah there was always going to be people that want to deny the truth and live in a delusional mindset why because if God is the one that punished then that means that God is the one that could heal and if he's the one that could heal he must have given us an instructions of how to fix it and if he gave us instructions of how to fix it we would have to be clearly stupid not to follow those instructions knowing the track record so no one wants to admit there is stupidity spiritual or otherwise so they have to somehow justify that it's not God that it's some other foreign power and this is one of the reasons why abah ainu taught 400 chapters of idol worship in his generation as the here tells us Abu brought light to the world this world was full of idol worshippers this world was full of Heretics this world was full of people that wanted to do whatever they wanted and Abraham ainu appeared and lit up the world washing away the filth of the generation the filth that's created from idolatry the filth that created from immorality the filth that's created from declaring war against God removing the imperfections revealing spiritual Beauty the wisdom of the generation illuminated it everyone recognized the secret of the world the secret of the soul of man created in God's image and likeness see here we are now seeing a drastic change in the world up until now it was every for themselves everyone for themselves even at the time of Noah if somebody came to Noah and asked him what are you doing here he'd said listen God's going to destroy the world because you guys are going against this his law Steve married Steve Dave married Dave you know all of this type of things these are against what God's law is so he's going to destroy the world now if the guy says oh okay okay listen listen I don't want to be destroyed I want to I want to be like you he was welcome to do it but no didn't go from Community to community he didn't go and publicize this if somebody came to him you would do it and that was one of the flaws in the plan of Noah and the world was destroyed as a result at the time of AB ainu things changed in 1948 from creation not 1948 according to the Christian gorian calendar but rather 1948 years after the world was created ofu was born and abah was born into a impossible generation the situation was seemed unfixable it wasn't that there was a bunch of small communities of decent people and then there was a lot of really bad people literally the overwhelming majority of the world were Wicked Idol worshippers enemies of God now aam is alone one of the reasons why called him abam is because AB was on one side of the ever and the world was on the other side now he wasn't just alone surrounded by Wicked Idol worshippers giving him all the excuses in the world to just say listen I'll follow what God says I'll I won't kill anybody I won't worship an idol but I'm not going to do anything different than my forefathers Noah who just took care of his own family I'm going to do that he could have easily Justified that but he didn't aam went from place to place but if that wasn't enough a also fought in circumstances that are unlike what many people have today a had to deal with nimod Nimrod was literally the most powerful person on the planet at the time in money in reputation in in in Fame in power he was a warrior and he was the enemy of Abraham meaning if you became friends with Abraham there's a very good chance you won't survive the day if that wasn't enough a already had a criminal record at 3 years old he got got arrested for destroying a bunch of Idols so now you can't you can't even get a regular job his resume is not pristine it's not clear he doesn't have like a high degree and a and a good lineage and a good track record and some referrals no he's got a criminal record people today make all excuses in the world of why they can't succeed in life because listen I didn't grow up in a rich neighborhood and my father's not this my father's not that and you know AB who had a criminal record is does it get any better than that or any worse than that on top of that he was poor for a big part of his life abah ainu was poor he didn't have any money he had to go from place to place you didn't have money to do marketing make all types of videos give out books nothing poor criminal record the most powerful person on the planet is his archant Nemesis his enemy tried to kill him already would be happy to kill him if he had the chance meaning that if you're friends of abam you're an enemy of his enemy and worse of it all everybody is his customer of the enemy everybody's an idol worshipper meaning it literally could not get worse aaham had every excuse under the sun and if all of that was not enough he came from an idol worshiping family to the extent that his father ter was like the Walmart of Idols meaning if you're going to go and publicize God's name you're going to ruin the family business you're going to ruin the family business you're going to give the family A Bad Name so the family problem money problem reputation problem enemies problem money problem criminal record a does not stop publicizing aadh Who's name for even a second despite all of the difficulties despite the impossible situation that is certainly more difficult than a situation that every single one of you watching today has to deal with in their community in their household in their city in their country in their society you may have one or two or three of the things that abrah ainu had to deal with but certainly you do not have all of them certainly you do not even have half of them and certainly you do not have some of them at all because we don't live in the same circumstance a already cleared up the world of the level of Filth that existed at the time that even with all the problems we have today it's still not as bad as it was at the time of Aram meaning we are in a much better situation to do kiru today to help people get closer to hashm today than even Abraham ainu was but yet Abraham ainu did not let his circumstances justify failure he did not let the fact that the fashion companies like Balenciaga one of the most famous companies in the filthy fashioned world today openly says that they are worshippers of the Bal what's the Bal in our advertisements in their advertisements they right they are in essence worshiping Bal who's Bal Bal is the literally the enemy of God the enemy the enemy of am this is the idol that has literally caused the destruction of the Jewish people for centuries in biblical times this is a Idol that has the ultimate tum of the world was instilled into this B one of the reasons why the mid tells us that mosenu is buried was buried by God in a specific Place opposite of the Mountain of where the Bal was is in order to continuously submit the impurity of Bal meaning this is not this is not just uh some statue like some Buddha that was uh created by some guy that wanted to uh make a statue of himself wearing nothing but a little handkerchief cuz he had nothing to do with his money and then eventually his family threw it in the garbage and then somebody picked it up and said you know what let me put this let me give this to my kid and the kid saw it and started crying so he threw it in the garbage and then somebody else took it out of the garbage and said you know what let me try to maybe give it to my friend as a present I don't want to spend any money on him so he gave him the statue and the friend said what is this I don't want this garbage and threw it in the garbage and this went on time after time but eventually somebody just decided to put it on on on on the desk and something good happened oh you know what maybe it's this new Statue of this fat ugly guy maybe that's the reason why it's a good luck charm and before you know it the good luck charm became a religion became a philosophy became an ideology and that is the reason abrah ainu had to use his wisdom and had 400 chapters to the tractate of aod while many people fight against the talmud fight against the oral tah what they don't realize is that what caused Abraham to succeed the tool that he used to succeed to help people become monotheistic is the oral Torah his major Focus was on the tractate of aod of idol worship why because there was so many different types of Idols in those days that abrah ainu had to become an expert in every type of idol every type of idolatry in order to show people how it's fake how it's nonsense the same thing as the sanedrin had to become experts in everything and speak all languages in order for them to become members of the Sanhedrin why because if somebody comes with a case they cannot rely on an interpreter to tell them what this guy is saying maybe The Interpreter is wrong maybe he misinterpreted maybe somebody's paying him off so every one of the members of the sanedrin had to know all of the languages including the languages of plants the languages of trees the languages of animals as well as languages of people the wisdom that was required to be part of the Sanhedrin was Second To None abah a had to use his wisdom that was superior to schl the wisdom of was Superior to schl that's what thear says two people were Superior in wisdom to schl which was ab and Moshe one more will be which is the mashiah but other than that schl was higher in wisdom than everybody else but here we see that AB ainu had to use the knowledge he had about all types of Filth in order to delve into the filth with the people in order to show them that it's fake that it's wrong this also answers the people that have questions about oh how does a rabbi speak on Tik Tock or or YouTube or or or Facebook this is what you need to do to help people leave the filth how are you going to reach them if you're not willing to bring the information to the places that they're they're they're at if they're over the internet then you have to be on the internet of course you don't do what they do on the internet you don't do what they do in their places but you have to use whatever tools gives you in order to publicize his name in order to save people that's the difference between Abraham and Noah Noah was not willing to leave his four walls AB went everywhere in fact from there we also learn that made sure to give shim in different places when he was not able to give aim his servant El would give the shield would give the lecture and this was not only with abam we learned thatu followed suit as was the command of hem where the Torah says Moshe that Moshe assembled this is the only place in the Tor says the uh Yim that I saw in and he brings the where it says that this is the only par in the entire Torah where it says that is assembled because hasem said to mosenu make large assemblies to give discourses to give shim on the laws of Shabbat and other laws so that future Generations will learn from you and do the same thing in every congregation that they have get the community to come to one place to gather so you could teach them Torah teach them my laws but this was already started even before mosenu by abah ainu but abah wasn't teaching them whatever he's interested in AB ainu was teaching them what they were interested in in order to get to what they needed to know which was certainly what he was interested in and everyone recognized as a result of this teachings the secret of the world and they started forsaking the pleasures of human beings the things that caused them to abandon God in previous generations as the prophet says in chapter 33: 24 there was only one was one of a kind not only one of a kind that there's nobody like him but a was literally by himself he had every excuse in the world to justify just staying at home being depressed being in a cave by himself leave me alone I'm doing my best just to survive like some people say I'm doing my best to survive abah ainu had every excuse but because he didn't use those excuses a went out and started doing kiru started Distributing information started giving shim little by little people realized that according to the truth that a was teaching them he resembled an angel while they resembled animals his behavior was the behavior of angels of righteous people their behavior was more similar to animals their morality was in a level of animals their ideology was in the level of animals and they said we don't want to be animals we want to be humans just like God created us and they started basking in the flow of wisdom learning 400 chapters of the tractate ofar that was taught to them by abah and his wisdom and Aram was not alone in doing this aah was converting the men and Sarah was converting the women did not go and give a regular Tora to a bunch of women which I'm not really sure why there are some rabbis out there that do this where they have a regular group of women that they give a lecture to there's no permission to do such a thing if you're going to give an occasional Shure to a random group of women yes you can do that especially if you bring your wife or it's a one-time thing but to give a regular lecture for the same group of women every week or every day or something like that you never going to find any prake to allow such a thing but there are people that do it didn't why he knew that despite the fact that he was wise righteous and everything was going good on his ideology on his spirituality on his servitude of God can never trust yourself when it comes to morality so yes if the woman comes to the lecture and there's a bunch of men but there's also women on their side no problem but if there's a women's lecture that is needed on a regular basis s she's going to take care of that one once in a while will show up and be a guest speaker but on a regular basis now how do we move forward from aam okay aam was one of a kind and what happened then finalizes this book with the following and says and since then since made this this sacrifice to publicize the to under all costs the learning of tah has not ceased despite all the inquisitions the pgrs the the the destruction and of communities by the anti-semites year after year generation after generation always fighting against the toah still the Torah has not ceased there's always going to be Jews studying tah in different places why because of the original sacrifice that Abu made and abah passed this to and to yov and yov studied for 14 years in the yes Yesa of Shem and ever and passed this to to his sons and Yu to his sons and went down to Egypt with the went down with them meaning that the Jewish Nation merited to have the they saw they saw things they they they heard things they elevated themselves above and beyond anything else out there but it wasn't without difficulty it wasn't without extraordinary sacrifice now many times when people are talking about anti-Semitism which has become a disaster in recent days usually when people are talking about anti-Semitism they are referring to the Nazis they're referring to the Nazis from Europe the Nazis from the Middle East the Nazis from America all types of people that are anti-semites but there is a mistake there's a mistake just like ru belman said in his letter those anti-semites that you're looking at on the news in the media they're not your enemy you are what does it mean you are the Jews are the enemy yes your conquerors your destroyers will come from within you okay fine we you know we cause each other problems but what about anti-Semitism no no the biggest anti-semites are Jews how this I learned from my my dear today and literally this is like a treasure hidden in plain sight here the kazun is telling USU passed his teachings his learnings to toov yob is the grandson of abam and yob studied for 14 years in the Yesa of Shem and all of us knew this all of us have heard this 500 times every year you hear this at least once when you read the learned in yes for 14 years the Yesa of sh who is the r Yesa of the is of Shem and ever Shem what did do there learn Tora meaning that if you are one of those people in the Zionist newspaper religious or otherwise that is publicizing filthy things like this picture that says that the Torah Scholars should become soldiers instead of ones that take advantage of the soldiers as what they're portraying here is if you are against the Jewish people learning and dedicating their entire life to learning tah then you are anti Shem you're anti the ISA of Shem you're against Shem why he is the original rash Yeshiva where yobu yov our father learned in his Yeshiva when you are antiem you're anti-site because that's where the Semite comes from from the name Shem antii is anti-semite in Hebrew so anyone that wants to use the anti-semite card against the Gentiles against the Nazis against whoever is in the news and whoever is not in the news in politics or otherwise should do a little bit more homework on their own anti-Semitism and check if they themselves are not anti-semitic against the Torah because after all what makes us Jews if it's not the toah you're not a Jew because of the place you were born there are Jews all over the world you're not a Jew because of the food you eat as there are plenty of people around the world that eat the same types of foods you're not a Jew because of the way you look because there are certainly people that W look like Jews and there are certain people that are not there's no Jewish look Jews come in all walks and sizes tall short black white yellow brown there is no Jewish look while many think the typical Jewish look is like a you know American ashkanazi European look the reality is there are many Jews that don't look like that there are Jews that are black there are Jews that are look like uh the uh people from India there are Jews that look people from from uh different parts of Asia like uh like China there are Jews that look Middle Eastern like myself there are there are literally Jews of all shapes and sizes what makes all of us Jews is not the look it's not the food and you can't even say Your mother why because the only thing that makes it due to your mother is because of the Torah that says that it's not because your mom told you you're Jewish and therefore you're Jewish because a lot of people say their mom told them a lot of things doesn't mean that it's necessarily always true the Torah said if your mother's Jewish you're Jewish if you converted to Judaism Orthodox you're Jewish so in essence when a person is fighting against anti-Semitism they should at the very least check if they themselves are not anti-semitic if they themselves are not against the Yeshiva of Shem the Semite Yeshiva because that is what makes us Jewish now what kept us Jewish you see after Yu studied in the Yesa of Shem for 14 years he had to go down to Egypt he had to go down to America he had to go down to Poland he had to go down to Ukraine he had to go down to Russia he had to go down to Brazil he had to go down to all types of places that are not Israel that there's assimilation everywhere that there is immorality that there is all types of things that are against the Torah but he had to make sure that we stay loyal to the Torah and therefore Yu commanded his son Yuda go down there first build me a Yeshiva and then we'll figure out where we're going to live because the ISA is what's going to keep us loyal to God the Torah is what's going to keep us loyal to God not the house not whether we have two floors or three floors not whether we have a onecar garage or fourcc car garage not whether we have a really nice food uh food section in the uh local supermarket Market that has kosher products no no no what's going to keep us loyal to God is if we have a place to learn Torah in peace so go build that first Yuda did it and udah fulfilled a couple of MIT there one he built the Yesa but two he fulfilled the Mitzvah that even the Gentiles have to fulfill which is honoring the parents now the tah says that honoring the parents is a big deal especially for the Jewish people so much so that aad promises that if you honor your parents he'll give you a gift in this world which is a long life who doesn't want a long life even people that are suffering want a long life nobody wants to die and a says if you honor your parents I'll give you a long life now for those that need a little bit of when it comes to the laws of the Torah and seeing how they come into real life here's a real story the story that happened about 80 years ago the year 1939 so about 85 years ago to be more precise this story was publicized in a seph called by zilin and his talid who really addresses a lot of extraordinary questions that show you how without knowledge of a Tor you'll never arrive at the right conclusion kazani who a tal muak of zilin wrote many books this is one of them and here he tells a story that he heard directly from the person in the story a person by the name of Moshe who lived in America correction this was heard originally by rev Roth who heard from Moshe who's in the story what's the story as we said the are important but many times people think that they're important when they're convenient Moshe says in 1939 the German Nazis invaded the village of I located in s in galicha and soon as they entered the village they sought out the rub of the city and informed them that they wish to make his beard into a broom obviously the entire town is in panic they all realized this is just going to go from bad to worse and the next announcement confirmed it when the nais imim said that the entire Village has to come to the square everyone is being deported as this was happening people were packing people are running wild trying to salvage whatever they can take with them whatever they can in a very very short period of time the atmosphere at the house of abut was very different his father says to Moshe bring me my shabas shirt so puzzled by this strange request of why his father is asking for the special shirt that he has for Shabbat he's supposed to have special clothing that you only wear for Shabbat but why as why now when the Nazis are here and it's very likely that people are going to die it's very likely that tragedy is around the corner mhha thought in his mind why but he didn't say a word he went to go get the shirt within a few seconds his father said mhe heat up the iron and iron the shirt and don't forget to starch the collar again Mo couldn't understand why it was so important to get the shirt to iron the shirt the star the shirt the Shabbat shirt right now as his father lost his mind from the fear and anxiety of what's Happening Here but unlike unfortunately people today that don't have any respect whatsoever to their parents or to anyone other than themselves M did not say a word naturally he's a kid he thought some things he didn't say a word he did what his father bid him to do his father shortly after placed another request M bring the shoe polish and shine my Shabbat shoes and make sure to get the corners nice and black today many people don't even know what shining shoes is to shine their father's shoes unheard of Mo Shine the shoes but not just any shine not a quick shine because we're in a hurry shine it really really good pristine again and again R moshe's Father kept asking him for different things and deep down Moshe couldn't help but wonder why his father wanted him to do all of this with the Nazis decrees hanging over their head chore after the chore task after task his father was standing up tall in a loud voice telling them what to do until he eventually stood up and said the following words that his son will never forget R moshi's father says as follows soon we will be deported by the Nazis we all worried about the future we don't know what will happen to us now as the angels of death and destruction hover over us most people are busy gathering things for the journey with food or clothing or gold or silver but I have just given you the greatest and most precious gift of all I have given you the torah's command of honor your father and your mother in order that your days be lengthened then his father pointed to his son and said my beloved Son you will live and so he did and re moshe's house didn't just learn tah they lived the tah with complete Clarity of what is right and wrong in all times despite the pressure despite the evil despite the horror despite the abyss that we're looking into his father knew that the Torah promised the name of God that if you honor your parents you will have a long life so I must give my son this gift right here right now if my my education to my child until now has been based on the Torah you will succeed in this task but if my teachings was not based on the toah we've already failed and therefore when his father gave him these strange tasks of the shirt and the shoes and a different things that seemed irrelevant the test was will you honor me during this time during this moment when it doesn't make sense when it doesn't seem logical or will you start questioning me will you start arguing with me will you start saying but I don't feel like it maybe somebody else can do it maybe it's not necessary will you start telling me about your opinion of what you should do or will you simply listen and honor your father father just like the Torah commanded us to and when Moshe did he fulfilled the Mitzvah and his father then knew without a shadow of a doubt that his son will live no matter what the Nazis want no matter what the Nazis do the Torah promised that you will live because you honored your father and therefore you will live and R Moshe lived many many years and is still alive at the time the story was written just a few years ago with countless grandchildren and families you see learning Tor is wonderful but it's not as wonderful is living T when you live t everything is clear everything is understandable even the things you don't understand you understand that you don't need to understand everything right this second because everything is under control from the hand above that runs everything and who are you to question it Abraham ainu made sure that his descendants never Empower anything other than a not money not fame not Material in any way that they believe in The One and Only God his children followed suit and made sure that their children do despite the enemies near and far yov knew that if we're going to go and survive in Egypt we have to build the Yeshiva because that's how I survived the house of lvan that's how I survived against asav that's how levie survived Lev 210 years we were in Egypt levie is the only one that remains in the BET midash learning Tor even though par enticed him like he did all of the others with money with wealth with reputation with Fame come work for the Majesty come work for the government come work for this come work for that the levy tribe had no interest in anything other than continuing to learn the holy Torah they continue their dedication to learning Tor and that's why they were never Enslaved the rest of the tribes were enslaved and therefore the rambam writes in Chapter 13 number 13 this lesson about levie is not just for the levie tribe rather not only the levie tribe but any one of the inhabitants of the world whose Spirit generously motivates him and understands with his wisdom to set himself aside and stand before God to serve him and minister to him and to know God proceeding justly as God made him removing from from his neck the Yoke of the many reckonings which people seek he is Sanctified as holy of holies KES kashim God will be his portion and Heritage forever and will provide what is sufficient for him in this world like he provides for the priests and the Levites theim and the leim and thus David declared in the Book of Psalms chapter 16:5 God is the lot of my portion you are my cup you support my lot here the rambam is explaining that the levy tribe did not only save themselves but their Merit of staying loyal to the Torah goes beyond what they did for themselves it goes for the entire nation they opened up the ticket just like abah ainu opened up monotheism opened up giving followed suit until today we give until today we teach The One and Only God the levy tribe gave the gift where if you learn T you'll get not only protection but you also get sustenance but again this is complete dedication to the Tor this is abandoning all of the distractions from the the outside in fact in the new seel by our own dear R frim that's on the way and going to be available in the next month and a half or so the INB at the end of the par says that those parents that want their kids to be like chevet to be Torah Scholars to be successful Torah Scholars not just people that just warm up the seat to be successful Torah Scholars to be someone that is like she leev they have to do what she Le did they have to seclude themselves they cannot be with everybody doing everything what everybody else does and yet have the results of Chev Levi just like chevet Levi excluded themselves from the business meetings excluded themselves from the sports events excluded themselves from all of the material aspirations that the rest of the tribes went after shevet L got special protection sh Le got special blessings you want your son to be be like Chev Lei you have to do what Chev L did you have to do what the rambam is saying to Do complete dedication to learning to without distraction this of course is not for everybody this of course is not something that everybody can do themselves but certainly you could help your kids do it you could help a friend do it you could help one of our in our do it you may not be a but you can be partners with a and thereby get the blessings of when you invest into one of the in the every week every month on a regular basis you invest for a month you invest for six months you inv whatever you do whatever you are providing to help learn T each month even if you're not she Le you get the benefits of she Levi based on your commitment based on your investment now for those that have the means for those that have the finances it's never been easier to get the benefits of the world of Torah than today but the excuses are that we live in the world of wicked people we live in a world of destructions and this is the point that we're going to finalize everything with the ramb writes in his M that it's a positive biblical commandment to cry out and to sound out the trumpets in the event of any difficulty that arises which affects the community these are the trumpets that we learn about in this week's par that had made for mosenu those trumpets specifically were only allowed to be used at the time of mosenu even Yeshua benun was not allowed to use those trumpets but the task and obligation of sounding a trumpet that there's something wrong is still an obligation to this day just like the rambam writes now a person is going to say yeah but there's something wrong in the synagogue there's something wrong in the community there's something wrong in the business there's something wrong this yes and there's a bunch of wicked people yes what am I going to do I'm alone yes you're in good company because there's nothing new Under the Sun abuu all of our forefathers dealt with the same exact difficulty a had to deal with Nim most powerful person on the planet a warrior extraordinarily wealthy and a man made Idol people worshiped him a had a criminal record was poor and alone but he had AEM on his side yobu they weren't alone like aam but they certainly had similar difficulties what are you dealing with the missionaries of the day the isim the idol worshippers the atheists yov and also had to deal with it Ishmael himself was there prizing getting people to follow him too and although he did Chua at some point in his life his descendants certainly did not especially the ones that United with asav and created amalik Amal came from the combination of asav and Ishmael asav in his heresy idolatry and murder was also there missionizing didn't start today idolatry didn't start today Ishmael and asav were competing for customers against our forefathers but that wasn't it even at the time of Abraham trying to teach he wasn't the only one trying to teach and ye and Canan were also trying to teach not exactly in the Yesa of Shem but in other places so Canan was trying to teach was trying to teach like the Israel the Hebrew Israelites of today that's that's Kanan was trying to teach you know it's like the all of these people with the strange uh Behavior worshiping uh cows that's count that's Canan but then there's all the gurus that find themselves being mystical too the baks of the world the bams of the world M had to deal with them too and certainly bakam one over 24,000 Jews and got them to destroy their lives but mosu didn't give up just because 24,000 died doesn't mean we close up the shop and give up on everyone M continued fighting but certainly his fight wasn't over it wasn't enough that you had the isim with their da the Christian with their missionizing the isav the Hebrew Israelites the Hindus the Buddhists the man-made uh you know self-proclaimed gurus thean the the all of those that was there the Bak the BAM they were there the worst of them all the the ones that caused the most damage were inside korak the T these were all Jews Yos these were all Jews K was a prophet but he went against God and Moshe is servant K convinced 250 biggest rabbis in the world to follow him in this heresy like Manis fredman does like Goldberg Ephraim does like Ephraim meris does like all of theim that convince decent people to follow them and create this fictional piece and Harmony that makes money kak did the same thing the did the same thing fortifying relationships with decent people and turning them into co-conspirators of evil that happened then it's happening now big famous names that have their ego so high up in the air they decide to change the Torah like some of the names we just mentioned they're nothing new was the in his time was an extraordinary Torah scholar but eventually turned himself into something that was worth than a dead animal in the street because of his arrogance but he got a bunch of people to follow him to worship idols to commit immorality to do all types of heinous crimes against God certainly he said it's in the name of God but obviously a different God this is like those people today that think that they're a Torah Scholars but tell you to start taking hallucinogen drugs or all types of new ways of worshiping God there's nothing new as the Kish has taught us throughout this entire series for the last four and a half years we know exactly what the instructions from God are we know exactly what the instructions from the sages are of what the the Jewish ideology is supposed to be how we are supposed to behave how we're supposed to think we may have different Customs between communities we may have different Traditions between different communities but the overall ideology is the same the overall Torah is the same in fact it's not only the same says the K it's not only the same where if you follow it you'll turn to be an angel among men you'll look like men but you'll really be like Angels if you dedicate yourselves to toah and become one of these Torah Scholars but even more than that the Kish famously said the mishna that is used for a different purpose but he used it for this when it comes to ideology when it comes to the basic foundations of the T if you see somebody with or without a beard with or without popularity with or without support from other rabbis or institutions or whatever if you see somebody and they come tell you something new all of a sudden 3,000 years have passed no one has ever said it until now according to this yoyo today he says God needs you or he says that you could take drugs to elevate yourself to be closer to God or that it's okay to violate Shabbat as long as you go in a synagogue or that all of a sudden Steve can marry Dave all of a sudden all types of new things like women can join the Army or that the Army is what's going to save the Jews and not the BET midash where people learn to in so many words for the the last four and a half years has taught us what the Jewish ideology looks like but he also summarized all of it in a single sentence where he says no is forbidden according to the Torah if your Traditions your Customs your behavior your understanding is in line with what the Torah and its sages have said for the last several thousand years you're in good company ofam yov mhe and you should publicize it to as many places as possible just like they did but if your tradition your ideas your customs are new they're not part of what we've had for the last few thousand years it's asso according to the T it's forbidden according to the tah why our T is the same T and it never changes this is the ultimate lesson that we must take home from this series from this this lecture for this time because there's going to be a lot of false prophets in every corner more than what we already see now but they're not new Ishmael bam isav balak korak all of these people all of these different Heretics Idol worshippers missionaries they come in every generation only thing they change is their name the strategy is still the same getting you away from the tah if you want to get close to the Torah and stay in that path you have to stick to what T has said and run away from anything new because you don't even know enough about the old and old once you get to know it it feels even better than new thank you very much for learning with me May bless each and every single one of you that has learned with me today and throughout these entire this entire series and may a special blessing come upon each and every single person that has learned every one of these lectures together with us

your children fulfill the words of the Kish and to have a true understanding and clarification and strength to go in the path of our extraordinary sages all of those that we've discussed that we've learned from that we submit to their extraordinary T that they teach all in for the sake of honoring glorifying A's name thank you very much for learning with me anyone that wants to support and help
