ARMILUS Vs. MASHIACH - 10TH ANNUAL HOSHANAH RABBAH All NIGHTER SHIUR

We are at the Torah Center here in Lauder Hill, Florida. Everyone that is here, thank you for coming. Everyone that's watching online, thank you for watching. Everyone that could be here, but didn't chose not to be here, you're going to regret it. I'm just simply telling everybody, you still have a chance to make it before the night's over. It's going to be a long nightm is going to be for the Uh, and also what's the full name? Your full name Shalom. >> Ysef Shalom Ben. Yseph Shalom David Ben. Holidays have been amazing. We enjoyed it. We had guests coming to our new uh center here in Florida from Canada, from Boston, from different parts of Florida, from New York. And uh each year we have this uh shu where puts words in our mouth where we're able to talk for 9 hours 8 hours where initially we start off with is specific topic that's uh unprecedented and then after that we do questions and answers all night. Last year we did it uh in Orlando. There's a few people that came to the place we were staying at and there was many people watching online and uh the year before that uh we uh did it in North Miami Beach and the year before that we did it in Israel. But we're very very happy to do it finally in our own place that gave us that uh we're starting here to build a uh transformative Jewish community. There's already some Jews here. There's Jewish supermarkets. There's a uh food. There's uh aem next door is going to be a catering company. There's going to be a lot of different things here. But most important thing is going to be a lot of Tawa here. We're going to have not just a prayer. The prayer is just something we have to do. So it's going to obviously be here but it's going to be the headquarters of it's going to be a call here. Is going to be something for kids. We're going be doing a lot of different things, interesting things. But before all that, we have to deal with the reality at hand that most people are completely unaware of. About a year ago, a little maybe almost two years ago, we came out with a movie called Gogum Magog. And anyone that watched that movie with well over a hundred Torah sources from everywhere from the Zad to uh telephone from the Zad to um many other places. Everyone that watched it was shocked at the reality that's ahead of us. what go is. But yet there are also and I spoke about it in this show is obviously some of the prophecies that we see in front of our eyes that before the Mashiach comes is going to be something unprecedented throughout history which is that throughout all of history the go chased us tried to destroy us. Even the uh guy we uh rented our Airbnb from uh he gave us a little bit of a small Spanish inquisition during the holiday because we built a suka and the Airbnb we rented because we wanted to be next to the shul next, you know, so we could pray here every day cuz my house is far from here. Still didn't get a house on the sh get soon. Um, so we built a suka in the backyard where you could only see it if you look over the fence, but apparently Jacob in case you guys didn't know. So decided that the suka is un you know unwelcome. So they kicked us out of our Airbnb in the middle of the holiday. We uh we have Rav Gav with us. So we uh we took down the suka. We uh two sukas we had there actually and then we had to rebuild it in my house. So three sukas in one in one holiday. Why do this? So I thought about it. I thought about it and I thought about it and I got the answer. It's emit after over 12 years of giving shim we finally gave us a place. We have 10,000 square feet here. It's going to be very very beautiful as we put the furniture and more books and and everything else. And we feel like we finally found a home. So wanted to let us know, listen, I gave it to you. Yes, it's a home, but don't forget you're still in the exile, so it's all temporary. Don't get too comfortable in the land of Adam. Everything is temporary, even if you pay for it. I paid for the Airbnb, but it still got taken away. This is a reality and it's a Everyone that was in Germany before the Holocaust was sure that everything's going to be fine with this guy named Hitler. Everyone before the Spanish Inquisition was sure that everything would be fine with the king since he was technically Jewish and his wife Ze or he's Ze, she's a Zevel. uh they're going to be fine. But it wasn't fine. And many people are building houses and and lives in the exile as if it's forever, as if this is. So when we came out with the movie of Go Magog, surely most people got out of it. But there was some people that said, "Maybe it already happened. Maybe it already happened. World War II maybe uh it's not going to happen. And of course we see from the midashim, we see from the we see from the that it must happen. And tonight you're going to understand not only why it must happen, but that everything that I taught you, everything that you learned in your entire life doesn't matter from which rabbi, good ones, bad ones, mediocre ones, the best ones. Everything you learned at the best case scenario, including my film, is only part A. It's only part A of what's going to come. It's only the beginning. Why? Because more or less anyone that has talked about the topic of end of days go they mention a king named Gog they mention a nation named Mog they mention there's going to be all types of horrific things like it says in Zechariah chapter 14 or chapter 38 which all sounds like an atomic warfare. Sounds like the movies that are war movies. There's going to be planes. There's going to be automobiles, tanks, submarines. Sounds like I'm familiar with it. So, what does everybody do? Everybody watches the news. Oh, you see Russia is moving one of their uh submarines. It's going 30° east. I think this is it, Rabbi. After tonight, I am hoping you merit to have the same feeling as me as what I've experienced over the last several days of preparing for this shu. Even though the sh has been in the making already for a long time, the last couple of days have more or less been traumatizing as I'm going through the war because what I see and what I understand and what you will all understand is that everything you know it's not wrong. is just inconsequential in comparison to what is really going to happen. Everything you know and imagine about what the end is going to look like is wrong. the planes, the automobiles, the tanks, the waiting for the news to announce that uh some country decided to attack another country, Russia, China, all this stuff. It's all wrong. Why? The end of days doesn't look anything like that. Now once you hear this you will realize a few things. One, everything that you know and believe about how the end of days in Messiah is not going to look like what you expect or heard from anyone. You will not find a sher about this. You will not find a book about this. In fact, even to find the material took months and months of effort. Number two, our own gok film, which is highly recommended for people to watch, was only the first half of the story. And that's being generous. Gog currently is a slave. As we said in the film, as says Gog is a slave, is a lowly bottom of the barrel person and so is his nation. Whoever you can think of as the lowest nation on earth as far as their status in the world, that's more likely of who Gog is. But Gog is the main character most people have heard of. What you haven't heard of, and if even if you did, you heard very little about is someone by the name of Armus. That's what we're going to learn about today. The third thing that you're going to realize today is as said in chapter 1 verse9 there's nothing new under the sun and you're going to see how the pioneers of the superhero comic books got their ideas from the Torah. Why am I telling you what does a comic book have to do with anything we're going to learn today? Because what you're going to hear today is going to sound like a story from a comic book more than it's going to sound like what you visualize the end of days to look like. Most people can rationalize what the end of days will look like because they either watch the news or they watch the film or they watch something digital where you see tanks, you see helicopters, you see airplanes, you see missiles, you see Hiroshima, Nagasaki. So people can familiarize themselves with something and start visualizing based on what they're familiar with. So when they hear what Zachariah says of how one person will grab his friend's arm and instead of helping his friend up, he only has his arm in his hand left cuz the guy disintegrated. So people think, "Oh, this is an atomic war. Makes sense. Biochemical makes sense." So they start thinking whose planes it going to be. Is it Russians? Maybe it's the Ukrainians. Ah, it's China. No, it's North Korea. That's what everybody thinks. America, not too long ago, they thought that Gog was Obama because somebody found a statue of one of the pharaohs and they compared it to Barack Obama. Identical twins. They took his wife, the statue of Pero's wife, compared it to Michelle Obama, identical twins and say, "Oh, this must be Goku Magog. It's the end of the days." But hey, if you haven't noticed, a bunch of years have passed and he's not Gog. He's not Mog. He's not anything. He's not even president anymore. What you're going to hear is something that's going to sound much more like a comic book mixed with Christian esquetology which means end of times both of which have plagiarized art meaning what the Christians say that's true is ours what's theirs is not years ago, I read the Mam Luiz section about the wars of Yakov and his sons. And in there, I saw clearly how The superhero stories of the Incredible Hulk or Flash or some of the others are simply stories that were plagiarized from our Torah. But, and this is what I've been saying for years because you could see literally that the stories from Midashim, they match superheroes. But this year, since uh we're going into a unprecedented ground, I want to do a little more research to see if there's more to this speculation. There's a few big budget films coming out. Avengers, I think there's Spider-Man. There's all types of superhero films. They've become the big thing in the last 20 years, but this really all started a little over a hundred years ago. The pioneers of comic book superheroes are Jerry Seagull, Joe Schuster, Bob Kaine, Bill Finger, Jack Kirby, who was partners with Stan Lee. They came up with Marvel comics and a lot of the Joe Simon and Will Eisner. All of them are Jewish without exception. Now, just because somebody is Jewish doesn't necessarily mean that they know anything about Torah. Joe Kirby's real name was Jacob Kurtsburg. He attended Hebrew school as a boy. in fact had a strong connection to the Jewish tradition because he enjoyed to study the Torah throughout his life. In fact, he's quoted as saying, "I began to look to the Bible. I believe the Bible." When he was asked, "Where did you come up with these stories of his comic books? one of the characters that he came up with, Galacticus, Galactus from the uh Fantastic 4 villain. He says clearly, I got this from the Torah. It comes along with another character called Silver Surfer, which he calls the fallen angel. Anyone that read Noah knows about the nephilim. They're fallen angels. In fact, the thing which is another character some say was deliberately modeled after the golem of Prague. Jerry S uh uh Seagull and Joe Schuster. They grew up in Glennville, Cleveland, surrounded by dozens of synagogues and Yus speakers. They came up with Superman. Superman seagull says that he was a voracious reader of biblical stories. In fact, he credits the biblical strongman Shimona Gibbo as the primary inspiration of Superman. In fact, Musher Rabenu is also how Superman was told because anyone that watched Superman and knows the story, Superman goes from a different planet to Earth because his parents tried to save him and they sent him in a little tea, little tiny little ship as a baby just like Mushaben Stanley. as a line for Spider-Man famous line with great power comes great responsibility page 54b says the same exact thing when it comes to rebuke if you have power if you are a leader if you are a rabbi if you're a parent if you have any power whatsoever you have the responsibility to rebuke Captain Marvel, also known as Shazam, gets his wisdom power from Schlomik, according to DC Comics. Now, in 1990, Jack Kirby was in a radio show interview when a caller asked Kirby about the biblical superheroes. And Kirby said that the biblical superheroes were always present in culture and Shimona Gibbo was the first superhero. People that read the Torah or were told the biblical stories absorbed them and it naturally came out in what they drew and created in the comic books. And in 1992, Kirby said again, "I'm taking old religions and transforming them into our contemporary lives." Jack Kirby along with Stan Lee created Marvel. Plus, his mom was part of a family of storytellers that like to tell stories about supernatural things like werewolves, demigods, vampires, all the stuff that you hear in the mid and if that's not enough, there's a drawing, a huge drawing in Jack Kirby's house where he made a 300 foot high alien figure standing beside a sonic disruptor artwork and he calls it Joshua at the wall of Yeshua Benoon at the wall of Jericho. Meaning he took Yeshua Benoon's character from Tawra and he made it like an alien version of it. Now all of the people that I'm mentioning whether it's Seagull, Schustster, Kane and so on you would say maybe one maybe two but when I looked deeper into it I saw that unlike what most people think that art scroll Felheim the you know really only became famous you know in the last 30 40 years. So therefore, how would these people learn if they didn't go to yeshivot? Because many of them went to public school. Many of them went to, you know, just Hebrew school. So I looked at the education. I looked at what was available in the year 1840. The was published in English. In Yiddish was published in 1912. There you will see all of the stories about Yakovu and his sons and their superhero powers. Meaning it was available well before any of these people were born. Further, the sephila, which was a Yiddish Torah, was published in 1927, right around the time most of these guys were born or a few years later. And it was published in New York in Lower East Side New York where many of these guys lived and grew up. Another book called the legends of the Jews where it talks about superpower stories and other midashim was published in 1909 by GP uh JPS in English. Meaning that even if these guys didn't grow up learning Hebrew in order to read the midrashim and the it wasn't necessary. All the stories were readily available in their neighborhoods in English, in Yiddish, which were the languages that they spoke. Now, if you look at the characters, Yea has nearly identical characters to powers to what's called the Incredible Hook. Yakovinu has powers of a guy named Hawkeye who shoots the bow and arrow where he could kill many people with one bow and arrow. Yakov is known to kill a thousand people with one bow and arrow flash also had a roar which is comparison to the black bolt. You can find all of these in chapter 93 verse uh section 6 about Yuda or in Seph chapter 38 Benan. He had power similar to someone that's called quick silver or flash being fast and having a incredible strength in his leg. Shimon had similar powers to me to some of the X-Men. Benyamin werewolf of course you have an X-Men in other movies. Min compared to Gorgon also you see the dual identity of Batman, Spider-Man, Superman nearly identical to the stories you find about Yusf Sadik or Malik where they pretend to be one person and then later on we discovered someone else. Ysef. His brothers didn't know that he was Ysef when he was the viseroy of Egypt. No one knew she was a Jew until later on. Small family fighting big armies. That's Jacob and his sons in comparison to the Avengers or Fantastic 4. In so many words, Rabutai, you see that they turned Jewish agot, Jewish heroic traditions that they encountered in childhood into visual vocabulary of Marvel superheroes. It's not a coincidence. The more you look into it, and I spent hours looking into this stuff, the more you see it literally word for word. This is the character. This is him. This is him. This is him. This is him. Why do you need to know this? What does it have to do with what does it have to do? Why is this required introduction to a shield that talks about the end of days? First, we're going to start off with who is Arus Alash? Why do we need to know who he is? mention in where it talks about that the mashia won't be killed by meaning put it in the we need to pray for this every day the mashiach ben that's mentioned in won't be killed by there are very few sources that talk about the main sources are several midashim which include the prophecy of the kid of the child commentary on Isaiah 11:4 where it says that in his he'll kill the wicked with his speech. You'll find out a very big about that later. Was written about 2,000 years ago by one of the page 28A says that when would study Torah any bird that would fly over him would burn like a sacrifice because the Torah learning was so high that he create a spiritual fire from wherever he was all the way up to the heavens. And if a bird flew, it became a sacrifice. It burned up. He's the one that wrote one of the midashim that we're using. He's in fact the earliest source that talks about it. Now on one end we talked about superheroes. On another end we talk about prophet Isaiah. All types of biblical stories. all types of reliable sources. Are we supposed to learn Torah from comic books? No. Are we supposed to watch comics? Absolutely not. It's waste time between and usually has a lot of things you shouldn't watch. But the whole point is is that just because something sounds strange, we should not reject it or dismiss it because the salvation will have many strange things happen. The main that you'll find information is Eisenstein the Midash Midash Mashiach Midash Rab and we're going to start off with the main part which is Midrash Mashia who gives a detailed description of what the gul of Isel the salvation of Isel what is it going to look like if any of you need to go early before I finish this section. It's best you go now. And the reason why I say is because if you leave before I get to the 10th point, you're going to be traumatized. If you leave after the first few steps, you're going to leave with fear in your heart that you're not going to be able to control. If you get to the end, you'll see that there's a happy ending. The Midash Mashiach says that there will be 10 miraculous signs before Mashiach is unveiled. Sign number one, there will be three kings that are heretics yet disguise themselves to the public as people who serve Hashem, saying his name often. They will misguide and confuse everyone in the world and will lead nations to heresy. The wicked among am will end up giving up hope on the gula and will forsake Hashem and leave the fear of hem behind. And these three kings will bring much of the destruction upon the world. Meaning not just not physical destruction that happens later, rather the spiritual decline of the world where they're going to lead them to believe things that are idolatrous, believe things that are heretical, believe things that you can't fix. Sign number two, Hashem will bring a major hot wave to the world along with tuberculosis, fever and plagues that will infect people around the world to such an extent where one million people will die each and every single day from among the nations and the wicked Jews. Anyone that remembers how the news was during a time of Corona, people were scared the world was going to end because they haven't seen a plague like this 100 years. But the reality is if you look at the statistics of how many people died from corona, they did not change the overworld death rate of the world during that year. Meaning every single year millions of people are born and millions of people die. And the the numbers are public. You could find them on the internet on Google. How many people are born every year? I think it's somewhere around a quarter billion. How many people die every year? It's around a quarter billion also. 250 million, 270 million. If I remember correct, last time I looked at it was several years ago. And I looked at it specifically because I wanted to see if the number increased as a result of corona, which was practically a plague around the whole world. And it didn't. Same numbers. Nothing changed. The chart didn't go like this and then spike up and then go down again. Nothing changed. So whether they died from corona or the doctors killed them or the government killed them or the medicine killed them or their wife killed them not sure. Bottom line is nothing changed. But here the mid says what you saw is nothing is going to bring such hot wave disease to such a point where a million people will die a day. This is before the war and among them are included the wicked Jews. Not all of them. Each one goes on a different level. Sign number three, Hashem will rain blood from heaven that will look like water. People will drink it and die. Those from the nations and wicked Jews who gave up hope on a salvation will die. The righteous Jews, the sadikim that hold on strong to the hashem and his salvation will not be heard by this rain of blood. In so many words, you find out Jewish guy died from drinking water. He wasn't religious. He didn't have a he was even if he had a keeper. Even if he had a beard longer than mine, he died from water. He had a problem with Hashem. He drank water next to him. His friend drank water next to him. He didn't die. Sadik. Yeah, but I don't know. The guy doesn't look like it's doesn't matter. He survived. Good sign. Sign number four. Hashem will bring down rain of healing to heal the blood rain victims. Wait, you just said that the wicked that drink the water are going to die and it's are going to live. So who is a healing? Those that are Benonim, those that are in the middle, which is the vast majority of society, those that are Benonim that will drink from from this water, from this rain will heal from the disease they got from the blood rain. In so many words, the wicked people that drink this water will die. That sadikim are unaffected altogether. and the Benonim will have an opportunity to be healed. Sign number five, Hashem will return the sun to darkness for 30 days and there will also be a blood moon and after 30 days they will return to normal. So what we saw in Egypt, three days of darkness that was just couldn't see and then three days of darkness that was a physical darkness. That's only 20% of what will happen before the end. Sign number six, Hashem will let a dome conquer and rule all over the world. and a new king of Adom will rise and rule all over the world for nine months and destroy many countries. He will then get angry with am and decree big taxes on them. And the Jewish people will be a great distress during those times with the new decrees being put upon them each and every day. And many of them will die and will become fewer during those days and no one will be there to help them. If I said this before October 7th, most people would say, "Come on, we're not back in the 1930s. Rabbi, stop it already with your fear-mongering. Stop scaring people." Even though I didn't write this, I wasn't there when they wrote to me. I promise you, maybe my was there. But when I learn these mid now, I say, "Wait, hold on. That's it doesn't seem too far from the reality of the world because after October 6th everything looked okay October 7th not so okay November 7th all hell broke loose why all the people that was supportive of the Jews that just got murdered became anti- anti-semites initially the world supported us said oh they're victims look they got attacked by these criminals with flip-flops and people were supportive. Something happened over the next 30 days where apparently the supporters became more anti-semitic than anything we've seen in the last 80 years. You started seeing protest in every major university in the United States and around the world protesting against Israel as if we're the ones that went into their land and started murdering people for no reason. Anti-semitism got to such a rise over the last few years that it now becomes a standard topic of discussion every single day on major news. People have made careers as a result of their anti-semitic behavior. So you see here when it says that the king of Adon ruling over the entire world, I'm sure some of you can think of somebody that could do that. But what's more interesting is how despite there being so many nations around the world, you know, you have Mongolia, you have Kazakhstan, you have Pakistan, you have India, you have hundreds and hundreds of countries. Most of them most people never even heard of that are 10 times bigger than Israel. But yet this king of Adam will have one main interest aside from ruling over the world and that is to torment AmI is bring them back to times our grandparents wish they never lived through say that there's going to be such a horrible time many will die. Few and few will survive and no one will be there to help them. I'm sorry to say this is not the worst part, but I promise you there's a good end. After 9 months, we're still in the sixth sign. Something good happens. Mashiach bin Ysef will arrive. After the 9-month rule of Adome around the world, Mashiach bin Yusf will arrive. His name is Namya Benel. If that happens to be your name, you're not the Mashiach. How do I know you're not the Mashiach if you have the same exact name? Because you are not from the people from behind the the dark mountains will come and arrive with the tribes of Ephraim and Benyamin and some of the tribe of God. These are the Jews that live beyond the dark mountains called in Hebrew and they are part of the 10 tribes that have been hidden from the rest of the world for the last 2,500 years. After Sanhalib went to battle against the Jewish people, he saw the previous kings that fought the Jewish people eventually lost control because they left the Jewish people after they beat them. They left them there. So they beat them up. They took their weapons. They took their money and they collected taxes from them like they do in every other country. Problem is the Jewish people, they can't stay down. So what do they do? They pray to and eventually gives them salvation and they get new weapons, they get new strength, they get new miracles and they rise against the enemy. So each time someone went beat them up, killed among them, but left them there eventually didn't work out for the enemy. The Jews rose did not want to fail the same way that the previous kings did. So he did what nobody else ever did. He took the Jews and he spread them around the world. That way they cannot unite. That way they're no longer home. That way they're not only conquered, but they're in unfamiliar territory. Our entire oral Torah, the Mishna, the Talmudi, all of it comes from just a couple of the 12 tribes. the ones that you see next to you sitting. We have a little bit of levie that's among among us. We have some of we have some of in the world. Very little bit of some of these which were recently discovered. We don't even have a handful of the tribes. Why? Because 10 out of the 12 tribes were taken from society, thrown somewhere, and no one's heard from them for 2,500 years. Which means that our entire oral Torah does not have any of the wisdom from the 10 tribes. What happened to them? That's if you assume you haven't heard from them, but we did. It's just not so common for people to know about. Page 94B has a between and about where Sar put all of the Jewish people. Mut said that he put them in Africa, different countries among Africa. Kush the uh in places around there. But says he put them near Mount Sug beyond now the river of Shabbat in Greek. What's the river of Shabbat? Page 65b has a discussion between and a heretic named Tonus Rufus. always used to bother him asking him heretical questions but he was an important person so he couldn't just tell him to go fly a kite he had to answer his questions so tonos asked how do you know that you're really your Shabbat is the divine will and that it's really the right day maybe Shabbat that God talked about maybe it's a Tuesday maybe it's Monday afternoon says now proves the Shabbat is on our Shabbat. Why? Because this special river is a river of rocks that flow like water. I saw something like this in video a few years ago. It's unbelievable. I don't know if that was now some or not, but whatever I saw was unbelievable. Don't ask me where I saw it and how I saw it. I don't remember, but I saw it. It exists online somewhere. But during the week, this nalon is a very rough nal. It's a very rough river. Rocks all over the place. It's not like something smooth and nice. It's not like a uh but it stops everything on Shabbat. Shabbat starts. The second Shabbat starts, it's like somebody pressed stop on a video, freezes until Shabbat ends. So the say that some of the tribes The midrasha in chapter 73 section six say that some of the tribes are beyond naton person by the name of Josephus Josephus Flavius. Many people who are clueless, especially when they come from Christian backgrounds or they are Christians, like to insult Josephus, say he's a liar, say he lost his mind, all types of things, news flash. Josephus was a Tana Kadosh. and his real name was Rabio. He is quoted by Israel throughout all of history. the Abaranel, the Ramban, and many of the and the Gonim quote Josephus. And therefore, any time that the write something different than Josephus, we go with the but if we see that the do not contradict Josephus, we go with what Josephus says. Why? And we see that the throughout all of history used them as a source. He writes in antiquities chapter 11 section 33 that the 10 tribes are beyond the Euphrates until this day and there is such immens number of population to the point where they cannot be counted meaning it's not a small tribe you saw in some Discovery Channel that has a little group of 5,000 Arabs that let's say they like to slaughter the way we do and uh they say shalom. It's not that. We're talking about millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions. We're going to get to that a little bit. About 1,200 years ago, a person by the name of Eldad Benan showed up in the Jewish community at the time of the Gonim and he said that he came from beyond the mountains. He was part of those people and he wrote different kushim that aml never heard of before. He published a seph called sephad and many of the quote him among the gonim they quote him the quotes him and one interesting thing that you'll see in his writing is when we re we learn what do we see we see that every sage mentions where he learned what he learned said, right? That's what everybody says. Says, why? That's his rabbis. They didn't have the Rabaka and the Tanim and the Zugo. They didn't have any of that. They had Yeshua. After that, that's it. No one heard from them for 2500 years. Meaning the entire time of when the Mishna is being written, the entire time of the TMU, the entire time of all, none of that existed. Why? They were behind the mountains. So he quotes the leader after Yeshua. The good news is that he wasn't the only one. In Spain in the year 1165, Benyamin of Toledo said that there are men of Israel in the land of Persia that he saw from the tribe of Dan, Zulun, Asher, Nafali. Multiple tribes are there that the rest of the Jewish people didn't know existed. He said there are many of them and they're so powerful that the goim cannot touch them and they have a prince named Ysef Levi. So we see here there are several sources more than what I'm mentioning where some of the people either came from there and joined the rest of Am is or went in so many words there was encounters between the tribes that are behind the mountains. Now you're going to ask naturally why did they all come now? They don't have permission. There's a story about going there and meeting some of their people. But there's something that'll probably interest you even more, especially if you love Israel. The number one thing that people know about Israel is that we fight back Israeli army. Even though the government of Israel, these Zionists, the heretics, atheist, wicked people, the land of Israel was a gifted to us by Hashem. And the fact that we have to survive by fighting is simply a reality. We make sins. Therefore, Hashem gives power to the goim to hurt us and we have to defend oursel. But who was the first general of the Israeli army before there was an Israeli army? Israel was founded in 1948, but there was an Israeli army before 1948. In the year 1879, the play is called Pakikva. A bunch of Ashkanazi Jews made aliyah to the land of Israel and started a little kibbutz, a little place over there where they wanted to settle. The Arabs weren't exactly too excited to see these people. So, there was constantly issues. The Ashkenazi Jews that were there, they didn't exactly have uh let's just say they weren't really good with fighting. One day they said, "We need to have somebody to be our guard so in case the Arabs come and they attack us, the guard could warn us." They designated a person by the name of Yehuda Rav. And Yehuda Rav was there on assignment guarding at night. This is again, this is 70 years before modern state Israel, well before the army, well before anything. Yudav is there and one day as he's there at night he sees a huge man riding a white horse. This Arab man is riding right up to him. He stops next to him. He looks him up and down. Yud sees that he has a sword on his left side that's almost as bigger as big as him. He looks at the man and the man says to him, "Shalom. says, "Shalom." The big man looks at him and leaves. He says, "I have to." He writes, "This is all written by Udav. I have to remember this guy's face." His face was full of scars. He was a warrior. I have to remember this guy's face and tell the rest of the people about this guy. It's definitely problems coming from this person the next day. Oh, he says not shalom. He said to good morning the next day is there again. The big man, the white horse shows up again. looks at him. He's like, "Oh, this is this probably the end. The man says to him, "Boke your to says." And then all of a sudden he says you love is shocked. What is happening here? How do you know? How do I know? I'm Jewish. You At that moment they meet and the person is named Daw Abu Ysef David Ben Ysef who is from the Kyber Jews from behind the mountains the dark mountains and he says that I was traveling and some of the people. Somebody stole my horse. So, I had to chase after these thieves and I went after them for a couple of cities until I eventually got so close to the land of Israel. I said, "How could I so close? I'm in Damascus. I'm in Syria. Let me just go to Israel. How could I not go to Israel to see the the Holy Land?" And on the way here, I rested at one uh Arab sheh's house who hosted me and he told me, "You know that some of your uh brothers and sisters, Jews have settled here." What are you talking about? No, there's no Jews here. He goes, "No, they are. Jews came here. They settled in this place. said other Jews. I said I have to see this. So I came and I saw and I said to you said this is not a Jew. So I came back to my Arab host and I said why did you lie to me? There's no Jews here. These are European goim idol worshippers. He says I swear to you on Allah they are Jews. You sure they're Jews? He was I swear to you there are Jews just like you. So I came back and I wanted to test to see what are you going to say if I say and when you knew what is I knew that you were a Jew even though you look weird and you don't have uh the Jewish look but apparently you're Jewish. So David Abu Ysef comes and they invite him to stay with them and he sees all of these Jews that are there and he sees that these people are pretty much a walking target because they have no clue what they're doing. And he says, "Okay, since you are my Jewish brothers, I'm going to teach you how to deal with Ishmael. I'll train you. I'll teach you. We'll start today." So everybody was excited. We have a war. You're going to teach us how to deal with Ishmael. So they make a bonfire. They put all their stuff there. And then David Abu Ysef says to them, "Okay, now we have to leave." Oh, so bring our stuff. Go. No, no, no. What do you guys think? You were stay by the fire. No, that's for the uh that's for Ishmael when he comes and shoots at you because that's where they're gonna think you are. We're gonna go in the corner over there where it's dark and cold. They go over there and exactly what he said happened later that night, they started bullets started being shot exactly where the fire was, but no one got hurt. And D Abu Ysef stays with them for a year, teaching them how to deal with Ishmael, helping them, battle them in multiple cases. He showed them how to fight them. He actually fought the Arabs, but he told them, "You're not allowed to uh don't use uh uh weapons uh that are guns." He says that's a disrespect to battle. Use swords and if you're going to use it only injure Ishmael, don't kill them. Why? There was one time that they attacked them and he said, "No, only shoot them in the legs, shoot them in the sides. Don't kill them because if you injure them, they're going to run to their friends and they're all going to be afraid of you. If you kill them, they'll take revenge. They're going to come back. So it's better that they're scared of you. He taught them all these laws of dealing with Ishmael. And he told them that he's part of the Kyber Jews that live behind the after a year he left and from him started all of the different divisions of army of the modern state of Israel. All of them started from here. So here we see things that not only are not taught in school, they're not even taught in history books. But we see that there's a lot more to this world and to the Jewish people than most people realize about 10 years ago, somebody contacted me from uh Africa and told me that they're Jewish and uh we started communicating and he asked me to send him some stuff, some CDs, some books, things like that. It was a very very expensive investment. I said, "How much do you need?" I mean, how many Jews are in your community? He says, "Just on my street there's 116 synagogues." Said, "In Africa, I'm not talking about South Africa where there's a big Jewish community. I'm talking about Nigeria. I'm talking about places where most people don't even realize there's anything remotely Jewish there. And little by little I met more and more. And I asked him one time, "How many of you do you think there are?" He says, "A lot." I'm like, "What's a lot?" He says, "Probably 100 million." I said, "What do you mean 100 million?" You're talking about 100 million. Are you sure? Said, "Yeah, it's probably much more than that, but I don't know." I didn't know much at the time. I asked Re Fry. He says, "I don't know. I never heard of these people. It's possible. Certainly possible, but the world doesn't know that they exist." The more I learned about this topic, the more I realized that the noisy part of Is that everyone complains about that everyone talks about, that everyone does business with, and that everyone does doesn't want to do business with, all the people, the noisy ones, us, everybody talks about 15 20 million. 15 20 million think they rule the world, you know. See 15 million. You ask one Jew question, you get three different answers. Why? Depends who he's given the answers to. You ask two Jews which synagogue to go to. They say, "Listen, I go to that one. I go to that one. And that one da neither one of us go to." You know, it's all of us. We're very opinionated people. But the reality is that most of the world knows about those 15 20 million. They complain about them or they love them. They do business with them or they don't do business with them. They realize that all of the modern-day inventions have something to do with the Jewish people. Whether it's the semiconductor, memory chips that you have in your phones, in your computers, uh different the uh the pill camera, you know, a little pill that you put in you you swallow it and it's a camera and it gives the uh doctors an exact uh uh picture live picture of what's going on inside your body. all types of extraordinary inventions made by the Jewish people that companies like Microsoft, Intel, Nvidia wouldn't have existed without them. But that's again that's the 15 20 million that everybody knows about. When everybody's anti-semitic, it's against those people. the others, virtually no one knows anything about them. And as you will learn today, there's a lot of them and they're coming soon after Is hears the arrival of Mashiach Ben Ysef. Some of the Jews that have been hiding or living under persecution from the king of Adam will come out from hiding and from each city and country some of those Jews will join Mashiach Ben Ysef. There will be a unification of some of the ancient Jews from the tribe of Ephraim and Hashem and Yamin and God. So this is not all 10 tribes. This is just some of the four tribes and the new Jews, us. And Mashiach ben Ysef will declare war against the king of Adom. And he will defeat the king of Adom and kill countless of his soldiers. And he will kill the king of Adom and he will destroy Rome. and take back some of the kaleim of the beta mikdash that have been hidden inside the Vatican. The former chief rabbi of Rome metao and told him that he was friendly with the pope and the pope wanted to do something nice for him because he owed him a favor and he said what do you need? says, "I don't need anything." He says, "Okay, you know what? I know something that's going to make you happy. I'm going to show you some of the beta mikdash that no one wants to admit we have because even the state of Israel said they went to the Vatican and they looked, they couldn't find." That's because they didn't look everywhere because they don't know where everywhere is in that place. So the former rabbi of Rome went to the Vatican and was shown in the fifth lower level the kaleim of the betdash that have been stolen from us for the last couple thousand years and we've been lied about for the last couple thousand years that they even have them. And he said there was so much holiness and beauty that I almost I got dizzy. I almost passed out. And they're all behind glass walls like a display. The Messiah Ben Ysef will destroy Roma and take down the Vatican and take the of the betas from there and then he will come to at that point more Jews will join him. And even the king of Egypt will make peace with Mashiach Ben Ysef. And Mashiach Ben Ysef will defeat all of the nations that surround until Damascus an ancient Ashcone. It's not the same Ashculon as today. It's Ashculon according to the biblical map. So all of the kamas network that's around Israel will be defeated and the world will hear about Mashiach ben Yusf will become petrified of him. All of what I just said is only up to the sixth sign. We haven't even got to Mashia Bened yet. We have 10 signs. What we came here to talk about is the seventh sign. The seventh sign, hold on to your chairs. It's going to be rough, but we'll get through it. Hashem will be will begin making wonders in the world. What kind of wonders would Hashem make after Mashiach ben Ysef comes? This seems like the salvation we've all been waiting for. Sounds fantastic. He beat Adam. He killed their king. Got our clay beta mikdash. People are asking how come we're not building the beta mikdash. Some people want to build the bet mikdash even without the mashiach. They have all these campaigns. They say that we're gathering money to build the next beta mikdash. All that means is they don't know anything about what's going to happen in order for the beta mdash to be built. That's what it shows. They don't know anything about what will have to take place in order for the beta mdash to be built. People think that if you have a little bit of money or a lot of money and some stones and you could buy some land and maybe you have an army to defend it, you could build a beta mikdash. The beta mikdash is not a building that you could just build. The tools of the beta mikdash are not something you could just make just because you have gold. The beta mdash has to be commended by a himself. And the people that donate to such causes are not making a mitzvah at all. Why? You're donating to a real estate empire. You're not donating to the beta mikdash. And you're going to learn why in a moment. So what kind of wonders is a kadosh going to make after Mashiach besef looks like he has conquered any of our nearby enemies defeated our far away enemies and we're living good. Everybody's scared of us. You would think if you're living at that time perhaps we don't need Mashiach ben Davidid Mashiach Ben Ysef is such a great warrior such a superpower defeated all of Adam a world power him and his warriors from the tribe of Ephraim maybe this is the salvation in Rome There is a marble stone in the image of a beautiful woman that is not man-made rather a creation of a kadosh who himself the leaders of the nations around the world come to this stone and arouse it by wasting seed there whereby preserves the seed of tuma of those people inside the stone and from this he's going to make a new creation that will be born from it and will come out in the image of a person and its name is Sasatan. The same one the Midrash says that the nations call antichristto, the antichrist. The midrashim says that the Satan himself will go to the stone and unite with it like a woman to bring birth to Satan. If you're wondering if what does this have to do with Hollywood, think of the movie Hellboy. Just the comedic version of it is the movie. The reality of it is hell on earth. The midash gives a description of what our mus looks like. He's 12 ammut tall, 24 ft. 12 ammut wide. 24t wide. He will have two red eyes with golden hair color. He'll be bold with salat on his forehead. He will have green feet and two horns coming out of his head. He will be half stone, half spiritual. In so many words, the scariest villain you could ever imagine is a baby next to this thing. Why? Nothing can defeat him from this earth. He's not human. He's not flesh. The part that's stone is something made and the part that's spiritual that made these are not things that missiles or bombs or bullets or sound waves or radio waves or any type of waves that anyone can do anything about. He is deaf in his right ear and he can hear from his left one. When someone comes to tell him something good, he gives him his right ear. He doesn't want to hear it. When someone comes to tell him something evil, he gives him the left ear. He is the son of the Satan. And he will come to the wicked among Adam that lost their king and he will announce to them, I am your m me Messiah, your God. Immediately they will believe him and they will submit to him and all of the descendants of Asav will do the same. And he will then go and conquer all of the nations one by one as no one is able to fight him. Nothing can hurt him. Through his superpowers, he will then conquer one nation after another and gather a large army. He will then ask the people, "Show me the laws that I gave you." Because he's saying he's God. And these kings will bring him their idolatrous books like the New Testament. And he will tell them, "Yes, what I gave you is true." And since he's a spiritual power of tumah that was gathered from the sins of people alongside a supernatural creation that Hashem left in the world dormant for many years and united with the satan himself. This is nothing that any of us could even imagine or deal with in any way, shape or form. No one can fight and defeat this. So all will submit to him and he will tell all the nations believe in me. Believe that I am your Messiah your God and they will immediately submit to him. And at that hour the news will reach Benel the Mashiach ben that Satan is commanding now the Jews to say that he is God meaning commit au many among the Jewish people become frightened by this and rises with 30,000 of the Gib of the tribe of and they go to and they come to him with a and read it in front of him saying the Torah clearly says I am God. I am Hashem your God. There shall not be any God. How dare you say that you are God? You're not God. You're the Satan. Responds to to and says, "Your Torah is nonsense." Dust in his mouth. Says, "Your Torah is nonsense. Come and accept me as your God just like all of the other nations did. Abusel immediately comes to fight Armus and declares war and Armillus commands his soldiers to capture Mashiach Ben Ysef and immediately the 30,000 soldiers of the tribe of Ephraim attack and kill over 200,000 of Arm's soldiers. And then there's a separation and Alus gets angry and now calls all of the soldiers around the world because the whole world submitted to him. He commands all of them to come to a place called the value of the value of decision. The prophet Yel chapter 3 verse 14 writes multitudes multitudes in the valley of decision for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decisions. This valley of decision is not an actual valley, but rather it's symbolic for the area that surrounds Jushim. And the prophet already tells us that there's going to be multitudes and multitudes in this place. Armus will come with all of the soldiers of the world to attack and destroy AmI and ahead of it is Mashiach Ben Ysef. Millions and millions of Almis's soldiers will be killed by Mashiach Ben Ysef and his soldiers and only a few of the Jewish people will die. But among them is the Mashiah Busf. And on this we pray each and every day that he will not die in this battle. Immediately after he dies, the ministering angels will come down from heaven and take his body and rest it next to the of hide it from everybody else so the world doesn't find out. Am did not want to believe when they heard that Mashiah bin Ysef died. But eventually when they realize this happened, their hearts will melt and all of their strength will wne and many will feel hopeless. Hashem makes it so that al-milus does not know that Mashiach bin Ysef died because if he finds out at this time, he will take advantage of it and destroy every single Jew around the world with nothing to stop him. When the nations see that Israel is fighting their new god, Amilus, they will get disgusted by the Jewish people and kicked them out of their countries around the world, saying, "You see this shameful nation of Israel that betrayed us and placed a king among them," meaning they're talking about Mashiah besef How could they do it when we have alos? Who are these nations? Name them. That's it. America, France, UK, Australia, Argentina, Korea, China, everyone at this moment will be the biggest tragic time in the history of AmIl. Nothing could be compared to it. And at that moment, the great ministering angel of Israel will stand watching many of the loyal Jews run and hide in the desert as that will be the last place for many of them to remain alive. While those Jews that have doubts and lack amuna will go and submit to the nation of Adam, saying, "Is this the salvation we've all been waiting for? That our Messiah is going to die and they will shamefully return to the other nations. Okay, give us your New Testament. Give us your idolatry. Give us whatever amos, give us whatever." And at that hour will be testing is and cleansing them like silver and gold. That's what it means when it says the prophet in chapter 13:9 says in the name of Hashem I will bring that third into the fire. After twothirds are destroyed there's one third left which we've mentioned many times over the years. The prophet Zakaria tells us that there's twothirds of the world will be wiped out and one third will be left. But that one-third, Hashem says, I will cleanse them. Like you purify silver and gold. What does that even mean? The prophet says, I will bring that third, that remaining third into the fire and purify it as one purifies silver and I will refine it as one refineses gold. And it will call out in my name and I will answer it. I have said it is my people and it will say Hashem is my God. The same is written by the prophet Daniel. The same is written the prophet. Meaning that this horrible period of time is when a kadosh is going to test everyone, even those that thought they were righteous enough to see Mashiach. Because some people will lose all hope when they find out that Mashiach bin Ysef died. And they will lose they will show their true colors that they really had doubts about what it says in the Torah. They really had doubts about Mashiach Bened. They had all types of doubts and those doubts will come out at that moment and they want they go and join the nations and the holy ones among Israelim will go to Midbar desert of Yuda for 45 days without supplies or food. They'll be eating plants, bushes, and grass just to survive. And the prophecy by Hosa in chapter 2 verse 16 and 17 will be fulfilled where it says therefore behold I will seduce her and I will lead her to the desert and make the valley of a the valley of troubling into a portal of hope. Oh no, hold on a second. I skipped the line. Therefore, behold, I will seduce her and I will lead, This is Hashem talking. I will seduce her and I will lead her to the desert and I will speak to her heart and will give to her her vineyards from there and make the valley of troubling into a portal of hope. She will dwell there as in the days of her youth. meaning he's talking about when we were in a desert for 40 years as on the days of our ascent from the land of Egypt. And it shall be on that day that the word of Hashem that you will call me is she my husband and you will no longer call me Bali, my master. I will remove the names of the Baleim from her mouth and they will not be mentioned again by their name and I will seal the covenant for them on that day. So here we see that after these 45 days something extraordinary happens. During these 45 days, all of the wicked among am that do not have the merit to see the salvation, to see the gula will die. Whether they'll die among the other lands or those that will come into the desert that are not righteous, they'll die there. Alus is still going to be in the area and he will go and fight Egypt and he will conquer them. And after he conquers them, he will look back at you and return to destroy it. Up to here was the seventh sign. Sign number eight. M the ministering angel of Israel will stand and blow the chauffar three times announcing the salvation has arrived. The first chauffar blow mashiach ben Davidid and ely will be unveiled to the tadikim that are in a desert. All of Israel around the world will hear the chauffar and they will know that Hashem has come to save them. An enormous fear will fall upon all of the nations in the world and major diseases and plagues will come upon them too. While Am will hurry up to leave their places of hiding and join Mashiach Benavid. Mashiach Benavid and Alia Navi will come out of the desert with all of the that were hiding there and gather all of the Jews to go to Harabite. And he will sit there and rule. When Almus Arasha hears of the new king, he now realizes that the old one died and now they have a new king and he's on his way to Yusha. Alus will say, "Until when is this despicable lowly nation going to continue like this?" And he will immediately gather all of the soldiers around the world to go to war with Hashem's chosen Messiah Bened up to Am is goes to hell on earth with a power and a life that is unlike anything we've ever seen. seen in history. All of the things that we read about, all of the things we've watched, all of the things we've heard have no semblance whatsoever to this. Because everything we've become familiar with are things that at one point or another we saw. You saw a tank. You saw an airplane. You saw a bomb. You saw an explosion. Here we see that the world changes control like pingponging. Nations are being conquered and destroyed by the millions. Faster than that. Until this point, we see that there is a serious problem. Am Is got to a point where we were really close to the salvation. We saw we got the help of Mashia Ben Ysef who is extraordinarily powerful, righteous, everything you could possibly imagine on a positive end. But we learn also is that Mashiach B Ysef with all of his power that was enough to destroy a dome, the leading most powerful nation for the last 2,000 years. Mashiach ben Ysef and his 30,000 soldiers overcame Adom hundreds of millions. So we see these are not like regular soldiers. This is not AI. It's not airplanes. We see here this is supernatural. This is something abnormal. if you compare it to our normality. But yet Mashiach Ben Ysef cannot defeat Amuse and in fact is likely to die. When the Jewish people hear this, it's impossible for them to absorb it. It's impossible for them to understand it. How is that possible? We're not talking about this is a war hero who, you know, did something good, some special mission, assassinated the enemy. We're talking about something that is perhaps more powerful than any superhero we've ever read about in a comic book. No super. No, even Superman and and and and Spider-Man, all those people, they never took on an entire country. They never took on an entire nation. So we see that Mashiah bin Ysef is something out of out of this world. So for the average person say, "Oh, how could they abandon Hashem after you know they seem die?" No, you have to. You have to put yourself in those shoes. You're seeing something that is completely supernatural to you die. And you realize what the at the end and also say will bring us to a point where we will realize that we have nothing to rely on other than no airplane, no army, no media, no allies. No money, no clever ideas with beepers, nothing. Zero. Why? Alus is nothing like the world has ever seen before or can handle. Why? It is not something that you compare to anything else. Not even the superhero comic books that I gave you guys in the beginning as you can compare to this. Why? They're all defeatable by some other force that is just as powerful or smarter. They could tie his legs and make him fall. They could, I don't know, make him go to a different uh uh dimension. They could fight against him. Every one of them has a weak point. Here we see the most powerful thing that existed in the world as far as on our side Mashiah besefed Adam can't defeat amuse. So the Jewish people at that point they're losing hope. It's not obviously it's wrong, but it's to teach us that if we do not strengthen our today, we don't stand a chance to be among those righteous people that go to the desert and stick with Hashem even though we're eating grass. Because at that moment themselves say it'll be the most disastrous point in the history of AmIl. The holocaust is nothing. Destruction betdas nothing. Second betas nothing in comparison to what's going to happen during that time because this is not just physical pain. It's not death. It's not. This is an entire ideology is either going to stand firm or completely be disintegrated into nothing. If a person does not have the strength at that before that happens, they have no chance because everything will point to the direction of hopelessness. Everything will point to the direction of I guess we are the losing team. We had our we had Mashia Ben Ysef superpower defeated a nation of hundreds of millions with 30,000 soldiers. I mean does anybody can even say somebody something can do that? No, he did it. But yet this is something else. So we're not talking about oh this ideology that ideology this uh that this rabbi that rabbi we're talking about simply the moment of truth that every single person will have at that time where if they're not strong enough at that moment everything that I'm about to read you will not be relevant to them. But if they do survive that time and they hold firm toad, they will get to see the great blessings after when the ministering angel of Israel blows the chauffar. The first blow will unveil the Messiah Ben Davidid and he will come with Ela to Harab. No, there will not be a bet mikdash at that moment. So anyone that says that they're raising money to build a bet mikdash now, it's not happening anytime soon. It's just a scam. Why? A lot of things have to happen before that. Alus will come to war with hundreds of millions of soldiers. When he arrives, Hashem will say to Mashiach Benavid, "Don't fight. Sit by my right side. I'm going to fight him. And then tells meaning there's going to be some type of heavenly announcement. All of AmI is going to hear come and see the salvation that I will bring upon you today. No need for missiles, no tanks, no nothing. And Hashem declares war upon the enemies of Is it says by the prophet, Hashem will go out and wage war with those nations as he waged war on the day of battle. Hashem will bring fire and sulfur from heaven. As the prophet in chapter 38:22 says, "In the name of Hashem, I will punish him with pestilence and with blood, torrential rain and hailstones, fire and sulfur will rain down upon him and upon his cohorts." Here he's talking about Amirus. That's who him is. Fire and soulful will I rain down upon him and upon his cohorts and upon the many people who are with him and I will be exalted and I will be sanctified and I will make myself known before the eyes of many nations. Then they will know that I am Hashem. And immediately Armasha will die and all of his followers and the wicked Adam that destroyed the house of Hashem will flee from our land. And at that hour is will take revenge against him. Asanel says that in the the air out of his mouth he will destroy the rash. This is referring to Mashiach Benavid praying to Hashem and Hashem says you sit by my right side. I'm going to fight him. I'm gonna kill this. I'll be loose. The the prayer of Mashia, Hashem says, "You don't fight. I'm gonna fight him. I'm going to destroy him." The ninth sign the ministering angel of am will blow the shafi and at that moment the graves in will open and hashem will resurrect them and then mashiach ben Davidid and yahawi will go to where mashiach ben yf is buried and resurrect him and mashiach ben Davidid will go all over the world to gather the Jewish people that are spread out everywhere. They're hiding from everyone that's been chasing them, trying to kill them. Now, you'll see something change immediately. All of the nations will put the Jewish people on their shoulders and bring them to the Messiah. First, they threw us out, but now they raise us like kings. The 10th and final sign is the ministering angel will blow the chauffar withdah and hem will take out the rest of the 10 tribes from beyond the dark mountains and there will be so many that is beyond counting hundreds and hundreds of millions of them. And it will be like heaven on earth where there will be a fire, a holy fire in front of them and behind them as they travel to come join the rest of the Jews in Israel. And the clouds of glory will surround them while Hashem will be in front of them opening the fountains of life to satiate them along the way as they come join the rest of AmI. The benai says that when we say the prayer where it says this, the throne of David of is referring to Mashiach Benf because he is the throne of Davidid because he's preparing the salvation, the ultimate salvation for Mashiah Ben Davidid. You see that all of the wars, all the battles, everything that happens happens by Mashiah Ben Ysef. So in essence, he is preparing the world to be able to handle the salvation that comes at the time of Mashiach Benavid. So the benai says that we should when we read this we should understand that is referring to mash b and we are praying for him not to die while preparing the gulah the salvation for mash bid also another kush that even though we're now ina starting a new year soon you'll have pes And every family usually sings at the end of the song. It says where at the end Hashem slaughters the say Hashem slaughters the Malikav is referring to slaughtering alus because only himself can destroy him. She's here. The end of days is the time we're living in, but it's not quite there. A whole lot has to happen beforehand. The good news is is that a kadesh is giving us the time and the opportunity to prepare ourselves because we're all alive. Some are feeling better than others. Some have more material than others. Some have less. Some have more problems. Some have less problems. But if you paid attention, you see that whatever concerns a person had are quite frankly nothing in comparison to what you're going to need to deal with if you want to survive and merit to see the mashia. Now the beautiful thing is is that gave each and every single one of us that opportunity because if you're alive that means you could do chuva. No longer driving on Shabbat, no longer wasting seed, no longer stealing, no longer lying. These are all things that we all need to do every day to do chuva. But more than that, a person should start realizing that not helping your fellow Jews that are have not done Chuva yet, that are not in the right place yet, is simply a bad thing to do. It's careless. Why? Anyone that doesn't do cha, and I'm not just talking about I'm not just talking about people that are not keeping Shabbat. I'm not just talking about, you know, the secular people. I'm talking about the religious community. religious in one end, but they're corrupt in a business or they have heretical beliefs or they uh you know they do all types of things that are against the Torah. In fact, even if they're religious, but their amuna in Hashem is weak, their bet in hem is weak. Being careless about their state of their state of bet is very careless because we see that just saying Hashem loves me or I love Hashem, it's not going to cut it. It's not going to cut it. Just saying uh you know uh uh I'll be a nice guy. I won't kill anybody on the way to work. You know, it's not going to cut it. Going to school, praying, putting on, you know, shaking new love this way, that way. If you're like this, if you go, you make a turn, you do break dancing. It's not going to cut it. It's not going to cut it. Why? Because when the Messiah is finally here, that means that whoever is there with him would have had to survive hell on earth. where will test each and every with things that are unlike any other time in history. Nothing you can compare to. You compare small segments of history to it, but only a small part, small part of Egypt, small part of the Holocaust, small part of the but not the whole thing. Why? because there's a whole bunch of new stuff. There's a whole bunch of new stuff that we haven't seen before. We haven't even heard about it until today. In fact, if you look up this topic, you'll find more about it from the goim idol worshippers than you will find it from the Jewish people. The Christians talk about Armus. In fact, they plagiarize some of our midrashim and take it as if it's their as if it's their teaching. >> Armageddon, right? >> Just Armageddon. It is a all types of teachings that they speak specifically about him. They know the name, the image more or less. They call him the antichrist. In fact, there's a lot of conspiracies, some say are real, some say are not, about the difference between the white pope and the black pope. I'm not talking about skin color. I'm talking about there's a white pope that the world sees. And then there's a black pope that's behind the scenes running the show. And the black pope apparently according to those that are familiar with it, they're the ones that are those leaders that go into that stone. They're the ones that go worship the bal the the ones that want this disaster to happen. They're they're the people behind the scenes. Apparently, whether that's the case or not doesn't really make much of a difference to us. There is a black pope. It's true. there is these whole organization. They're the ones that in fact they're more powerful than they uh they run all the businesses, all the schools, all the money. Whereas the white one is the that people see on TV and at the Vatican that's like a puppet. It's like people think of like the president of Israel, which is a completely useless position. He has no power, no say in anything. But just to say we have a president over there in Israel, they give some guy a job. But behind the scenes, we see that this monumental subject is almost unheard of and even those that heard about it maybe know tidbits of it. Whereas now we see that this is very necessary information because now that I know what has to take place for this ultimate salvation these 10 steps these 10 major monumental wonders that is going to bring to the old. Now I can look at things very differently. I don't care what the news says. Doesn't matter what the news says. Doesn't matter what Trump says or Putin says or Russia says or Israel says or doesn't make a difference. It has nothing to do with this. They're nothing in comparison to the big news. And guess what? You're not going to need the news to announce the big news when it arrives. You're just simply going to see it when there's a three kings that are destroying and conquering the world and there's one king of adom that runs the world until Mashiah Bus comes. Guess what? You're not going to need the news to tell you that he's doing it. Why? You're going to see it everywhere. Being an expert in news is not going to help you. When Mashiach Bose comes and instills fear upon all of the nations, kills the most powerful king that has lived in the last few thousand years and makes it makes us feel like the salvation has arrived. Guess what? You're not going to need the news or the internet or anything to know that. Why? It's going to be everywhere. No one is not going to know. The homeless guy in the street will know. The guy that is anti-Semitic will know. The guy that is religious will know. The guy that has never watched TV in his everyone's going to know. Why? These are going to be monumental events that is going to bring things that everyone is going to know. It's going to be such great wonders that no one on earth will not know. When Alus Satan comes to the world, they're not going to make comic books anymore. They're not going to write stories anymore about superheroes. They're going to simply try to do the best they can to deal with reality. And the reality is going to be so dynamic that from moment to moment fortunes will change, lives will change, everything will change for certain people based on how they built their entire lives until that point. If they build their lives connected to every moment, praying to Hashem instead of to the bank, instead of to the mortgage company, instead of to the investors, instead of to the customers, instead of to the stock market, instead of to some fantasy they have in their If they pray to Hashem every day and they have engraved an into their mind and heart, they have put themselves in a situation where they have a chance to not only survive but to be part of the salvation itself. But if a person thinks they can just coast life, I'm doing my best, Rabbi. Do my best. I keep Shabbat sometimes. I do my best. I'm modest when I uh when I'm home, going to sleep. When I go to work, how could I be modest? They're going to call me weird. Why you covering your body and somebody die? Try my best, Rabbi. Try my best. You know, I used to wear a long skirt, Rabbi, but then I saw that God didn't give me everything I wanted, so I went back to the short skirt. I'm angry at God. Some people tell me, "Rabbi, listen. I know the cash advance business is uh terrible and it ruins people's lives, but listen, I got a mortgage to pay. for five houses. I got a new watch I just bought. $300,000. Where else could I make this kind of money? I'll make a little bit more. Then I'll leave the business. People have all types of unreasonable explanations to justify their sinful lives or actions. even if they're generally decent people. They don't kill people for a living. At least they don't try to. They're usually polite. Sometimes they're even kind. But that stuff's not going to cut it. In so many words, we see here that when he says, "I'm going to purify them like I purify silver and gold." That means that you're going to already have to be gold in order to have a chance to be purified like gold. That means you have to try your best at every opportunity and not just say I'm trying my best. You have to do whatever you can to fix whatever you can. But since we all are realistic and we know that even if I learn Torah, who says I'm learning enough? And even if I fix my midot, who says I'm going to fix enough? And even if I give, who says I'm giving enough? So what can I do? How do I can assure myself that I have the best possible chance? How do I assure myself that I have the best possible chance? Cuz I know I'm not going to turn into Raabad tomorrow. It's not going to happen and probably not next week either. And I know that as much as I try to work on myself, sometimes it's not enough. And I know this and I know this. Everybody knows about themselves. So how could I assure myself that I gave myself the best possible chance? The prophet says don't let your sins from the past be the stumbling block of your future. And then he tells us if you don't want the past to be the stumbling block of your future, he tells us if you want to not have a stumbling block, go help other people do chuva. Help other people do chuva by supporting kiru. Help other people do chuva by bringing more people to sh. Help other people do chuva. Why? Because every time you bring someone to the shield, we're going to have here every week. Every time you donate to beem and we publicize more lectures, more books, more USBs, more tablets, more movies, more BH kids, more whatever we're doing as an organization, it's a 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Somehow, coast to coast, there's people everywhere that somehow we managed to work every every single second that the world exists because someone exists somewhere out of the time of Shabbat that is able to do something. So there's an operation that's happening that is giving people a chance to get to know Hashem, to get to know the truth about Hashem, to get to know that is not your friend, he's not your buddy, and he's not kidding either. He is Hashem, your God. And he says himself, I will be sanctified. I will be exalted. I will make myself known before the eyes of many nations and they will know that I am Hashem. The reason why everything we learned was not enough was only part A. When we learned about Gum Magog, we learn about the end of days. That was only part A. And it wasn't enough was because after you hear this, you realize part A wasn't enough. If there was just simply a atomic war, nuclear war, planes, automobiles, tanks, I don't know, submarines, lasers, AI computers, people hacking each other and breaking your their hard drive, whatever they do. What's the kadashem there? How is Hashem's name get sanctified if one computer is stronger than another computer or one missile is stronger than another missile? Because we can all rationalize that wait, they beat us today, but we're going to have the next generation's Elon Musk or inventor that's going to beat them tomorrow with a better machine. So everyone can rationalize how the standard understanding of war being World War III being the end of days wasn't really going to bring enough sanctification of Hashem's name because at any given moment during any type of standard war someone could rationalize that some human could handle this. Some human with more money, some human with better computers and and and weapons, some human with uh more influence and charisma, some human can handle this problem. We were never going to get to that there's nothing to rely on other than Hashem with standard war. A standard war, some human can handle this problem. At least theoretically. Here we see no human can handle it. Even the most powerful human mashiach ben yf until that time wasn't enough because even in the best case scenario where our prayers get accepted all we benefit is that he doesn't die he still doesn't defeat our milus we still need hashem to do that part after mashia ben Davidid comes So, we see that we're in a situation where now we can get to logically, emotionally, and simply a point where every person will arrive at the conclusion, no one can handle this other than the kadesh and that's what the tells us that Hashem is going to bring the world to that point where everyone will know that no one can handle this other than our father in heaven. But knowledge that Hashem is the only one that can handle it is good, but it's insufficient because we still have to fix ourselves or at the very least prepare ourselves for that time where we're going to be tested like silver and gold. And yes, number one, we all need to do chuva for something or another. We have to improve ourselves, improve our improve our improve our improve our learning to improve our improve all that stuff. But just in case whatever we work on is not enough. Everyone that wants an insurance plan, there's one available. Support Kiru to the maximum ability that you have. Why? If you exert your maximum effort, whatever Hashem blesses you with, with its time, skill, knowledge, whatever it is, to help other Jews do chuva, then guess what? Even if one of them out of a thousand that you reach, 10,000 that you support, whatever it is, one of them does cha, every single mitzvah they ever do goes to your account. And guess what? that would already be more than enough to fix one of the problems you didn't fix. Now, if you support more than that, you do more than that, you get two, three, four, five, 10, 20 people that you are partners in helping them do chuva, whether monetarily or or or you invite them to a sh or whatever it is that you did to help them do chuva. And guess what? those five or 10 or 20 people could fix five or 10 other problems you didn't get chance to fix yet. So you see when is telling us about the prophecies of the end of days and all the scary stuff, he's not leaving us hanging. He already gave us the solution of how to deal with those times ahead before he told us about those bad times. Because the horrible times is chapter 38. The solution it's the beginning of every person that's watching here or online has to take this information to heart and do something about it. Not just one-time inspiration and you donate some money, a one-time inspiration and you share the video, a one-time inspiration and you I don't know sign up and subscribe. These are all good, but rather make a commitment this year. No, I'm going to do something on a regular basis. I'm going to start working on I'm going to start supporting Kiru. I'm going to start doing something as part of my life. Just like I eat every day, just like I drink every day, I bring I I I I breathe every day. I'm gonna take something on myself to do something that at least to show Hashem I'm trying I'm trying to make this year not look like last year that just in case this monster shows up, at least I know I'm doing something about it. I'm not going to wait until I get to the desert to figure out whether I believe in Hashem or not. So this is why is bringing all of this to us at this time of our life because this is a lot to handle. If this would have been the first few or 10 years ago, no one including the speaker would be able to handle it. Why? This type of information you have to take in bits and pieces. You have to prepare yourself both mentally, spiritually, emotionally. But we see how the world is going. We see how Hashem is shaping the world. As unrealistic as some of the stuffs sounds, it's a whole lot more realistic than the other argument. Why? Because you see that this is really the only way that ah could be sanctified like he said he's going to be. Because this is the only way that he puts us in a situation where no one could even imagine that any human being can handle this problem. No one can even imagine anything but Hashem handling this issue. And at the same time, it's going to be a situation where is going to give each and every single one of us opportunities to help ourselves, to help our family, to help our friends, to help people that we don't even know do chuvine get closer to Hashem. Because now that we have this new bit of information, we could realize that just leaving everyone hanging and not caring of what they do, it's pretty much just saying, "Listen, go kill yourself." Because if they don't do something, that's what's going to happen. One way or the other, anyone who doesn't get stronger from this point on has zero chance of surviving these stages. E the beginning stage 1 2 3 4 5 the reign, the reign of blood, the reign of this one, the uh the king of adome, the starvation, the plagues. I mean, you're talking about hell on earth. Person doesn't start getting better moving forward. Has no chance. there's no chance. So that's why these posters, these free books, these uh USBs, these tablets, all these things that we give out and distribute everywhere, these are simply seeds that we're trying to use to plant to help people be inspired. It's not enough to fix the problem. It's to get the person to start getting educated, reading a book. We're coming out with a new book. It's called Jewish Story Bizm. It'll arrive in the next month or so in Hebrew, in English. This is 20 stories, 21 stories about Sikim. Very inspirational stories, very good stories. But the goal of this book is to inspire a person to change. The goal of this lecture is inspire a person to change. The goal of all the films we've made, all the lectures we've made is inspire a person to change. It's not enough to change them. It's inspired them to change. What's enough to change them? This book and another book and another book and another video and another lecture that we make, another lecture. It's the continuing education. It's watching every lecture we come out with multiple times a week. It's not just watching once a month or once I have time or once I get a chance or once a year. It's not enough. Why? Because the amount of damage all of us have made to our nishes over the last few thousand years required us to come back here. And surely it's not just to fix one thing that can be fixed with one shure. We all need to do more. And one shure is not enough to fix all of it. One shure is enough to inspire to change to do something about it. If a person wants to fix continuing education is required. Continuing education is watching one lecture and another one on a regular basis and not just watching them and not just reading the books but applying the lessons we learn. Because if we treat the Torah like a comic book, then guess what? It's wasted. These Jewish people that were the pioneers of the comic book industry, they treated the Torah like a comic book. They liked the stories. They liked the stories. They heard the stories even before you guys did. But guess what? That's where it stayed. It stayed a story. And eventually they figured out they can make money out of it, too. So they made money out of it. But are any of them have any chance of having a share of the world to come? Do any of them have a chance of surviving what's to come if they were alive still? No. Why? They treat the Torah like a comic book. We can't put ourselves in the same shoes and say, "No, no, but I I'm better." No. All of us have to do more. And that's why I'm hoping that this sh will inspire your heart as much as it inspired mine. Because to be honest with you, studying for this year, I felt like I'm going through the war itself. I arrived here today, he was telling me, "Wow, I'm traumatized. I still feel injured. I feel like I went through the war itself." And this is like teaching it to you guys, learning it with you guys was somewhat healing. I'm still kind of traumatized. Not for nothing. But it's a to me this is as real as it is. Now again, what's going to be for sure? We're only going to see it once it happens. The Rambam didn't ask in that this has to happen exactly as it is. So there are certain things that Hashem can decide to do and certain things that you decide not to do. One thing we know for sure is that everything we thought was what the future looked like is not it. It's not it. what we thought the future's going to look like as far as how it's going to be one little war. You're going to hear on the news bunch of ships bombing each other and uh it's not it. Why? We know that whole point of the end of days is for his name to be exalted, to be sanctified, for there to be name in everybody's mind and everybody's lips. Everyone's going to know hem is one and his name is one. His name has to be for that to happen. It cannot be anything remotely normal. It cannot be anything remotely what we think it's going to be. It's going to be something super. And this is why it's important to know this information because that way we realize instead of trying to figure out what the news is going to be, instead of trying to figure out what politics we should vote for or not vote for or what this politician says or that one says, we should spend as much of our time and as much as our energy to do chuva and to help other people do chuva. Why? because those are the only two things that you're going to need in order to survive, in order to thrive, in order to be part of the salvation. Everything else, it's not going to help you. Even if you're world news expert won't help you because when those these news show up, there's not going to be any news stations to report it. So this will inspire all of us and all of the people that watch it to do chuva and to help support K so we can help other people do cha. Now you guys could ask him some questions will give you the answers. We could continue on till the morning. So YouTube and the BH stream both of them are done. >> Fantastic question about you. >> Yeah. So about distributing your books, right, to different places, synagogue, whatever it is, the fact that you're distributing the books. >> Mhm. >> How is that going to help the person? Because they could choose to either read from it or just not read from it at all. So would you merit the same way and get the reward as if you're helping them even though you're just distributing the book? >> No, you there there is the there's reward for the effort and there's reward for the fruit. >> So how can I >> so the reward for so reward for the effort is you trying you trying to distribute the book distribute the flyers that you'll get a full reward for your effort. Now, as far as the fruit, which is to get somebody that's not only going to read it, but is also going to get out of it, and he's going to get cha out of it, that Hashem is going to have to decide if you deserve it or not based on your effort. Hashem rewards those that exert enough of effort where they deserve the uh the reward. So, someone that comes to be purified, Hashem will will help him. So if a person just gives books one time, he gives five books and then he thinks he's gonna have 380 worlds for each book that he gave out, then he's sadly mistaken. Why? You have to do a whole lot more than just giving a few books for you to deserve that much. So a person has to do as much as they possibly can. I always recommend for people to spend some time every day doing kiru whether it's distributing the books or the posters or sharing lectures online or on WhatsApp groups or uh sharing uh answers from the AI rabbi or sharing the AI rabbi like there's something to do every day. No one is busy 24 hours a day. Everybody has time. So everyone could spend a certain amount of time doing some form of k every day. And if you really do that you're going to succeed. You're going to succeed. Don't focus just on one way of doing it. If you could donate, donate. If you could give books, give books. If you could uh, you know, send send packages to people. Then I started uh managing Rabbi Ara's uh YouTube channel would get him send him cameras and videoing his uh his uh shim and uh started sharing his shimm online. time you uh Facebook groups and uh started uh you know pretty much living a whole new world well before I ever thought that this is going to be have anything to do with my own personal life. Why? Because I knew that what he was teaching was good. It's going to help people and I wanted people to be helped. So, if I could send them a CD, if I could send them a USB, if I could send them a link, if I could send somebody any material whatsoever that I have access to to help them or at the very least give them a chance to be helped, then that's what I wanted to spend my time and resources doing. And I spent a lot of money that I had doing it because I knew that this is the will of Hashem. And guess what? Bunch of people did cha bunch of people did did good things. And I didn't realize, you know, what merit. I didn't care what my merit was. I cared about helping people because it's good to do good. But never in my wildest dreams did I think that was going to reward a mitzvah with a bigger mitzvah, which is not only that I'm going to go do kiru by giving out books or giving out CDs, but it's going to be my books and my CDs and and and things that I can teach people directly. So the beautiful thing is is that a lot of people start thinking, listen, I want to do kiru and I want to teach That's nice that you want to do ku and you want to teach, but did you ever do kiru before that? Like if you care about helping people, it shouldn't be helping them only under your terms and conditions. It should be helping them according to all whatever way you can. It's just like if you see somebody drowning, you're say, "Listen, I'll save you if you give me your right hand. But if you give me your left hand, I'm not saving you. I'll save you if you're uh you know, if your ancestors came from Morocco, but if you didn't come from Morocco, I'm not saving you. If you came from Poland, I'm not saving you. If you came from uh you can't give, if you want to save people, save them. Save them. Don't don't start asking questions. Who what whenever way I can save, I can save." So if that means giving them a CD, that means giving them a link, that means uh you know standing outside of a supermarket and doing things, whatever it means, do it. Why? Because what we don't realize is that the train that took the Jewish people to concentration camps was a regular train. Meaning before the Holocaust, it was used for regular things. It was used to transfer cattle. It was used to travel from place to place. was a train. So somebody that traveled on that train before the Holocaust, you know, they they used they didn't think of it that, oh, one day this train will be used for horrible things. But guess what? Once the Holocaust happened, everything changed. So a person that used that train for good now knew that he's going to his end. He doesn't care that this train was ever used for good. doesn't matter to him that it was used for good. Right now, he knows he's going to the end. If you care about somebody, whether you know them or not, whether they're your family or not, whether they live in your community or they live in Tyabi somewhere in the end of the world, if you care about Bahoo's children, that means you're going to do whatever you can before they realize that the train they're on is going to lead them to place. No, that's no good. But if you want to give conditions, no, I'm only going to help them if they listen to me speak. I'm only going to help them if they take this, I'm only going to help them if they do that, then you don't really want to help. So the most important thing for a person to know is do everything you possibly can to help as many people as possible because at the end, no one is going to care which train they were on as long as it's the right train. As long as it's the right train. If you get people to the right train, they're not going to care whether you're safari or you're Ashkenazi or you're young or you're old or your family or you're some distant cousin or they don't even know who you are. No one's going to care. And guess what? You're not going to care either. Why? Because you know that you did something good. You know you did something good. So that's that's the that's the goal. The goal is to realize that we are in a situation where most people are living their lives, running in the world, doing whatever it is that they're doing without a clue whatsoever of what's about to happen. Now, what's about to happen maybe tomorrow, maybe 10 years from now. I have no idea. All I know is that if whoever is not ready is it's it's going to by the time it happens, it'll be too late to get ready. Whoever doesn't start getting ready now, by the time it happens, it'll be too late. That's that's the reality because we saw how many things happened. You're talking about 10 different horrific stages, one worse than the next. Surviving the first one is a miracle. Surviving the second, like you have to survive so many miracles just to get to the end. Like if you're not ready ahead of time, you're not it's not going to happen. So that's why every person has to do whatever they can to get as many people as they can to do chuva, to get as many people as they can to get closer to because this whole issue of al-US and everything that's going to happen around it, before it, and and after it, it's not going to leave any time for anybody to think about whether they want to believe or not. It's not going to leave anybody any time to think about whether they uh they they want to learn Torah or not or whether they uh they have enough time to do Kiru or not. Once this whole thing starts, it's it's going to be survival survival of those that prepare themselves. So what's I want to know I want a practical way for example on how I can help them like for example when I see a stranger what exactly like are the tools exactly of like what I should do like maybe say something or I don't know >> well I mean it depends it depend depends what type of environment you're in if you're having a conversation with somebody and let's say it's whoever it is you're having a conversation with them at some point at the end of the conversation or at some point during the convers conversation depending on what you're talking about. Tell him, "Listen, I have a really, really cool movie I want to show you. Uh, I want to send to you and tell them, "What is it?" I'll just send you a link or, you know, and you send them a link of Hashem took Back His Millions or one of the other movies that we have. That's one way of doing it. Two, if somebody has money, they want to buy some of the tablets, they can give people that as a gift, as a holiday gift, as I love you gift, as I care about you gift, as a whatever gift. Doesn't make a difference. Just give this. What is this? It's amazing. What is it? It's amazing. What is it though? It's amazing. Just open it and you'll see it's amazing. That's it. There's no need to describe it. Why? Once they open it, they see it's amazing. Any description is an understatement. Just open it. You'll see it's amazing. It's a little tablet. It's free. It's the best price in the world. Take it. So, anyone that gets the tablet, you want to, you know, you get some of them. You give it out to people that you care about. You give it out to people you want to help. You give it to them as a gift. And guess what? They'll watch it. They'll see it. They'll be inspired by it. and you'll have a a lot more merits in your spiritual account. So the tools are there. The tools are there. You could do kiru for free. You could do kiru with money. You could do kiru with time. You could do kiru with skill. You could do kiru with a heart. You could do kiru with >> skill. If somebody has a skill set, if somebody knows how to do certain things, certain skill set, somebody has a skill set. Let's say for example in uh development computer development there's a skill set they can use somebody has a networking skills they can do k with networking skills like uh they somebody has skill set whatever skill set somebody has they can use their skill set to support kub in some way or another if let's say if somebody's is is a lawyer okay and they want to contribute their time to be a free lawyer to uh to help us whenever we need we don't really need it every day but let's say they want to do that they can use their skills to do that uh somebody is a uh you know a farmer pharmacist say, "Listen, Rabbi, anybody you have that's a local student that uh, you know, needs uh some medicine, I'll give them uh, you know, medicine for free if they don't have insurance or they can't pay for it." I don't know. Everybody could do something. My that's my point. I'm not telling you that every pharmacist should be free and every uh computer developer should uh do development for free. Everybody needs to make a living. But my point is no one has an excuse not to do anything. No one has an excuse not to do anything. No one. Because everybody has something. Some people have money, some people have time, some people have friends, some people have skills, some people have knowledge. Everybody has something to do. Which means that if you do nothing or you don't do enough, then you're wasting the gift that Hashem gave you. And that's what said that the people that will suffer the most are those that Hashem gave them the most and they didn't use it. gave the most amount of money and didn't use it to support Torah. Gave them most amount of skills and they didn't use it to sanctify Hashem's name. So if somebody has a certain thing that Hashem gave them, which everybody does and they don't use it, that will be their biggest regret because he gave you the golden ticket. You didn't use it. You didn't use it. So person needs to use the gifts. What else? Is there any works that we're not allowed to do on like doing laundry or like writing like things like that with regard to preparing for this coming like clothes for the >> Sure. Yeah. Sure. So, first of all, if it's uh you know, if it's laundry for kids, then you could do laundry, no problem. Uh that's not a problem at all. Number two, if you're preparing for Shabbat and that's the only shirt or pants you have, you could certainly do it. Uh that's regardless. Uh third thing is is if a person has a non-Jew do it for them. So instead of they do the laundry themselves, they give it to a nonju to do it. Laundromat, they can do it for you with no problem. Uh so there's multiple ways that the person can do that. as far as preparing for Shabbat, as far as uh doing laundry, not just for tomorrow, but even if it was like on Tuesday and you needed for Wednesday, you could didn't have to necessarily be prepared for uh if you needed it, you could have you could have used one of those three uh lenencies to do it. Um yes that princess two two of the population is going to die and then the third one is going to go through test fire >> regarding the two the two that already passed that they die are they going to have a second chance like maybe going down to gay and just being purified to make it through or they're From my understanding, as far as the twothirds of the world, they've already had plenty of chances. Uh cuz nobody's really here on their first carnation. Nobody's here on their first Gilgun. Uh so if they're still remain idolatrous or they remain, you know, heretics and uh you know, they're part of those two/3s, then uh they've wasted all of their chances already. Uh not just during this life, but previous lives. Uh but again can do whatever he wants. I'm not I'm not here to decree what what he's going to do with anyone. Uh what I do understand is that uh the last third is a lot of people. The last third is still a lot of people because even though a lot of people are going to die um you know if you let's just use the argument of it being you know 9 billion people in the world a third is three billion people you know. So it's not it's not exactly a small number. uh and understand that people have a hard time handling uh the the uh the the understanding that you know billions of people are going to die. Nobody wants to hear that. Uh but uh quite frankly it's a uh it's Hashem's world to to run to run the way uh he wishes. And if somebody is serving an idol instead of serving him, he has no right to exist. that that person has lost their right to exist. Their their existence is antithetical to the will of Hashem. Why would Hashem leave them to exist uh or to get even uh you know another chance or anything else after they've replaced him with a piece of stone and and most of those nine billion people that live in the world are praying to some form of idol or another. So, it's not exactly like these people are, you know, the greatest of people and uh everybody's wonderful and, you know, they they're caring and uh and and Hashem is just deciding to kill nice people. You know, these obviously these are people that, you know, have done certain things not just during this life, but in previous lives that have put them in this situation that they're in. Hashem is not looking to destroy his creation. Hashem is looking to give each and every one of his creation, you know, the full chance that they can possibly get to rectify their their to earn their place in Allah. Whether it's a Jew or a Gentile, Hashem wants to reward the creation because that's why he created it. But if its creation is in essence uh uh insisting and uh uh uh simply cleaving to living a life that's the opposite of the will of Hashem, then they have no right to exist. You know, it's not it's not about uh feeling bad. It's about understanding that it's God's world to run the way uh he wants. And uh the more a person thinks about it, the more he realizes how uh uh you know we would not even think of a better way because if you look at it from the perspective of a human king. Human king we don't really have any in the world today at least not in western society. Uh king is someone that could just simply kill people at will. Uh you know even even if uh a president uh kills people today it's usually behind the scenes. They don't admit it to the public. A real king kills people at will and there's no consequences. There's no nothing. So now if a king tells one of his people, "Give me a uh give me a coffee. Give me a coffee." And uh the person says, "Give me a coffee. You get a coffee." Now what happens to that person? He gets killed. Is he going to give him another chance? Another chance. There's no chance he's going to give him another chance. Why? He just lost his right to exist the moment he spoke to the king that way. It didn't matter whether he has a family or he doesn't have a family. He's tall, he's short, he's rich, he's poor, he knows the king for a long time, he doesn't know the king at all. Doesn't make none of that actually matters. That moment that he defied the words of the king, he lost his right to exist. And guess what? No one is going to say anything bad about the king for killing this person. Why? that was enough of a reason to justifies the king's decision even though it was just like oh maybe he was in a bad mood and he didn't feel like get getting the king coffee or he didn't mean it whatever it is and that's just a one single step here we have a kad who is very very different than a king of flesh and blood because the king of flesh and blood he didn't give this person that defied his will anything he didn't give him He didn't give him air in his lungs. He didn't give him food. And even the job that he has is not even necessarily a job that the guy asked for. So technically, the guy doesn't owe the king of flesh and blood anything other than the fact that, you know, he's he's he has to. It's by force. He doesn't owe him out of gratitude. Here we have a He gives us the air in our lungs that we breathe and sometimes use against him to live a life that's against him. He gave us vision to see the words of prayer, to see the words of Torah, to see the truth, to see modest things, but sometimes we use it to see the exact opposite. To see imas, to see lies, to see immorality and so on. He gave us the hearing that we're supposed to hear. Words of Torah, words of truth, words of morality, words of wisdom. Instead, sometimes people use their ears to hear words of, you know, filth from, you know, all types of music and movies that are not exactly uh ideal. He gave us the heart. He gave us the mind. He gave us the legs. He gave us the money in our pocket. He gave us the wives. He gave us the kids. He gave us the husbands. He gave us the jobs. He gave us He gave us everything. And what is he saying to us? He didn't say, "Give me a coffee." He just said, "Follow these rules. Number one, it's beneficial for you. Number two, it'll earn you your right to exist." Simple. It's not like he's he's not asking us to climb mountains. Like told, he didn't ask you to go climb and get the Torah on top of the mountain. He didn't ask you to go to the heavens and get the Torah. It's not in heaven. It's not across the river. It's not across the ocean. It's not far away. It's simply telling us that when you go to the bathroom, say thank you to Hashem that your body works. When you wash your hands, you know, wash your hand. You need to wash your hands anyway, right? For so wash your hands before you, you know, you you eat bread, say a blessing. uh when you uh wake up in the morning, say thank you to Hashem. When you uh live every day and you you survived, pray to Hashem and say uh you know, Hashem, I acknowledge that you exist and you gave me everything. Like he's not exactly asking us for much. He's asking us to simply acknowledge that he gave us all this stuff. So when a person lives an entire life that's antithetical to the will of Hashem, that means that they are constantly and always ungrateful to everything that he gave them. And even more so if they replace him with a statue or they replace him with some other false heretical belief that limits him that quantifies him that uh personifies him and humanizes him. Then it's not not only that they lose their right to exist. It's miraculous mercy that a even allow them to exist in the first place. Meaning the fact that he allowed him to exist in the first place is shows how merciful he is. So as much as a person would say, well, what kind of god is going to kill so many billions of people, a human king, no matter who he was, wouldn't wouldn't even let a guy that defies his will to his coffee survive. God gives a person an entire life and then sometimes a reincarnation and then sometimes audience all types of so many tries that if their ultimate end is losing their shure of the world to come you could be sure they deserved it probably 50 tries ago but Hashem's mercy gave them 50 tries anyway you know and that's what the says that the the wicked souls they already uh um existed from the beginning, but Hashem distributed a little bit in every generation because had they all existed in in one generation, it would just simply destroy the world. So, you put a little bit of bad in every generation because it needed to exist. But there are certain people that are evil and that's that's it. That's just what they are. Can they do chuva? Yes. Theoretically speaking, everyone that's alive can do chuva. Will they? That's, you know, that's obviously a question that only they can answer. But as far as Hashem, the way he runs the world, no one will ever be uh fully understanding of of how merciful Hashem really is because most people um think of it from a human perspective and a human perspective is very very limited. Uh it just sees what's what's in front of it. >> Yeah. >> When you mention Dubai, does it have knowledge involved in >> if if it leaves the body uh and sometimes it immediately reincarnates into another one. Sometimes an ashma will be reincarnated into something else the same day that it dies. Sometimes it'll have to go into the upper world and stay there for a certain amount of time before it gets reincarnated. Sometimes it gets judged uh for a certain period of time. So, it depends. It's not a one-sizefits-all. Someone I spoke to tried to compare erroneously the words of the Rambom about the children of terites about how they need to be treated more immediately and they tried to compare it to secular Jews today that this is like the same thing. So I was wondering if you could clarify the words of Rambam obviously and why this is wrong. >> Yeah. Well, I mean, people people want to be more merciful than God. You know, it's a that's that's really what it comes down to. People think that they're more merciful than God. They think that if they rule that people are that they're a captured baby, then that's going to do those people any good. So first to answer the question, the Kites chose to do certain things that are against the Torah by ignoring their oral Torah. And the amount of education they provided their kids was so limited that it wasn't a surprise to meet a child or or a grandchild of a carite that didn't even realize that some of this stuff existed because the world was much more limited. Today you can't really quite say the same thing about the majority of Jews in the world because we have media, we have internet, we have a uh shs everywhere, we have freedom to live as Jews more or less everywhere in the world. Uh you know, so it's to say that a Jew doesn't realize that Shabbat exists is is is ludicrous to say the least. Uh but even more so the people that are usually primary c uh candidates for people to call usually go to shul usually they're part of a Jewish community but they just they're not they're secular. So to call somebody that goes to shul a tinoishbah um and compare them to the kites who some of their descendants didn't even know that parts of the Torah didn't exist. It's it's not only ludicrous. It's lying to ourselves. It's lying to it's intellectually dishonest. But even more than that, even more than that, what most people don't realize is that even if you called the entire generation, including the religious people, calling the religious people, it's not going to get anyone to heaven. Like, for whatever reason or another, people think that if you just decree that everyone is a captured baby, that's going to help them somehow. If I put a baby in a little cage on stage here while you guys are watching this entire lecture, is that gonna help any of you in life? No. Guess what? If you do this with millions of Jews, you put them in a cage, tell them they're all captured baby, it's not going to help them either go to heaven. Why? Captured babies don't go to heaven. They're just treated differently. How are they treated differently when it comes to being critical? uh as far as no one is as clear as day as the Rambam. Rambam writes that someone who after he does chuva he becomes beloved he becomes hashem's friend he becomes you know hashem favors himem and so on and so forth because he used to be he used to be hated by hem used to be considered disgusting in the eyes of hem this is the ra writes before he did he was disgusting he was an abomination hem hated him and so on and so forth so now the ram is clear as day about what religious is what not religious is what happens. No, at the same token when it comes to the Rambam writes that if a Jew desecrate Shabbat, they're considered an idol worshipper. And therefore, if they take wine, that's a uh uncooked wine. Thank you, Mommy. And they they open it, they pour it for you. You can't use that wine. It's it's like it's like wine of an idol worshipper. Can't use it. If you have a Jewish ceremony, like a wedding, and one of the witnesses is a Shabbat. It's a secular Jew, desecrate Shabbat, then guess what? That wedding ceremony is problematic. It's not valid. Why? You don't have a valid witness. He cannot be a witness to a wedding ceremony because he's an idol worshipper. Having an idol worshipper as a witness to Jewish ceremony, it's not valid. And so on and so forth. So to say that these are and is a witness is still not going to change the status of the wedding. But what it will do is that some will say that if he's a he doesn't know what Shabbat is and he pours the wine for you, you don't have to throw out the wine. That's in the best case scenario. meaning he's aba. You're right for calling him aba. In the best case scenario, all you did for him is simply say thank you when he gave you the wine. That's it. That's it. Now he dies that day, he still goes to hell. Still goes to get home. He doesn't come out. He's done. He's finished. Why? meaning calling him a does not help him in any way, shape, or form. All it does is help you not throw out the wine. That's it. So, I'm not even sure these people understand what they're saying when they say it doesn't help anybody. All of this, it's anic terminology that you use in order to determine whether someone is a valid witness, not a valid witness, can hold wine, not hold wine. you're allowed to lend the money with with with interest like a uh you know with the reasonable rates obviously or not that's it doesn't allow anyone go going go to heaven or get rewarded or anything in order to go to heaven you have to keep mit you have to keep Shabbat you have to protect your you have to do chuva there's no other way there's no like secular department in heaven where they watch TV No, no, but we're only watching BH kids in heaven. No, I promise you it's not going to be there. It's not going to It's not going to be BH kids for secular people in heaven. It's just not going to happen. As good as BH kids is, it's just not going to be there for the secular people over there. It's going to be for people that choose to watch BH kids or choose to watch Thank you. or choose to watch music or choose to watch this or other we do. Why? Because in order to go to heaven, you have to keep the Torah and because that's what God decreed. So to just say that, oh, he's he he grew up secular. Okay. So why why does that mean that he has to stay that way? Oh yeah, he grew up his father's not a rabbi. Okay, so his father's not a rabbi. Why do you keep him that way? Oh, he's a he didn't know anything. But now he knows. Now he knows what Chabbat is. Okay, he didn't know anything for 40 years. So let's just say he's not going to get judged the same way for the first 40 years. But now what? You're going to keep him there? You going to keep them in a cage forever? Since since he was in a cage the first 40 years, you're going to keep him in a cage for the next 40 years. So that's the thing. the whole thing of uh saying that we we live in a generation of and trying to do pinpool and and and and mental gymnastics uh in order to justify other people's sins is really a uh number one stupid just to clarify in case anyone didn't realize by now. Number two, it doesn't help anybody other than you just saving, I don't know, I guess 30 bucks on a bottle of wine. Uh you don't have to throw it out. Uh number that's number two. The the third thing is it's really something that is a way for people to absolve themselves from the responsibility of every Jew is responsible for his fellow Jew and not just responsible for whether he has bread or candles for Shabbat but responsible for his fellow Jews and responsible for his sins just like the says. So by saying that everyone's ashbah what people are doing like listen he's aba so I don't even need to tell him anything he's so I don't even need to help him why he's a baby he's in a cage he's in a cage just leave him in a cage cage leave it put a lock in the cage put a lock in the cage let's you know what let's take the this put it around the cage no one even sees him even know he's in a cage think it's a desk maybe There's some maybe there's some some people under this desk over here. We have to stop absolving ourselves of our responsibility. If it was your son or your daughter and you know that they were going a one-way ticket off of a bridge, would you do anything? Of course you would do anything. You wouldn't care about whether they're in a cage or they're not in a cage. You're going to do whatever you can to save them. So all of these people that I was trying to say that everybody's Like I said, it simply shows that number one, they're trying to absolve themselves from a responsibility. Number two, they think that they're more merciful than God. And number three, they are clueless. Absolutely clueless. Let me just know about what it actually means to be. It's simply an term that protects you from wasting wine. term from deciding whether to lend the money with interest or not. Heaven reward, you know, going to Allah has nothing to do with it. So, I'm not even I'm not I'm not really sure why they think otherwise, but to be honest with you, it just seems to me that uh people are uh just clueless about what what what they're saying. They think that if they declare that everybody's then somehow everyone's going to go to heaven anyway. Like I don't know why, but apparently that's what they think. But yeah, next question. >> Yeah. >> So I remember like four months ago you gave a shoot on why I want to go over to Mob, right? >> And you were saying that the Muslim claim, the Islamic claim that the end of day the Jews are going to hide behind the stone and say Muslim come kill him. >> So my question is with that right >> is it true that Hashem can make their version true in order for the go to happen because as you were saying about the Jews hiding in the desert it kind of sounds like that's to that same extent where Jews are going to be hiding behind like so is Hashem going to make that reality true in order for to happen? Okay. So the answer of the answer to the question of that begins with the words can Hashem do is always yes. So it doesn't matter what the following words after it can Hashem. It's always yes. It's always yes. What he can do whatever he wants. It's his world. Just like if you had, you know, little kids play with Legos, you know, and you know, you you decide where the little Lego guy goes. And even if the Lego guy, you know, is looking in one direction, you could decide and the Lego guy is going to look in a different direction. You know why? Cuz you're you're the master of the Legos. You can do whatever you want with them. We're less than Legos. We're less than Legos. So, Hashem can do whatever he wants. That's the answer. Now, as far as whether Hashem is going to increase the confusion uh among the people uh with making certain things look right uh than other it seems like from what we learned today then yeah it seems like Hashem is going to do a lot of different things to test us uh even to such a point where Armus tells everybody he's he is God he is the Messiah God and uh he even says that the uh the works of uh idolatry that the people have is all true. So if that's going to happen, then needless to say, other things could happen because that's going to increase the test, increase the uh difficulty and also going to determine who is really sticking for the truth with no exception and willing to die for it and who's not. So can can something happen? Sure. It seems to fit perfectly with what we said and what uh what the have said. Um what exactly will happen? We're only going to know once it happens. >> So will Muslims be also be a part of that? Will they also >> The whole world is going to be part of it. >> So is also going to >> the whole world. No exception. No exception. >> They say that Allah is God. So how is that possible for them to worship this? >> Are they part of the world? The whole world. Whole world. Everybody. There's no exception. >> So they'll also believe that this um is God. Apparently, there's going to be a lot of people that are going to lose their eternity. Uh there's going to be a lot of people that lose their life. Who and how many and all the details and everything. Obviously, we'll see when that happens. Hashem runs the world, not me. Uh but as far as how something is is is possible, you have to understand that usually when somebody lo you know puts themselves in a situation where they have lost their right to exist, they've lost their it's not because of one sin. Usually they've already made other things, other sins and lived a certain lifestyle that already has uh put them on that same path. you know, a a guy that uh is a uh a murderer, you know, yeah, maybe he murdered for the first time now, but I could assure you he he made a bunch of other crimes that are smaller on the way to becoming a murderer. You know, uh the the the the guy that's an idoltor, he didn't just become an idoltor right there and then, and that's the only mistake he made in his life. Surely he made a bunch of other horrible things in his life and horrible decisions in his life alongside being an idoltor, you know. So, the guy that uh that uh tried to crash the plane and kill a couple hundred people yesterday, uh there was a flight that was going from Dubai to Israel and uh the the pilot there was two pilots and one pilot was a terrorist and he tried to kill the second pilot and uh and crashed the plane into into Israel into uh uh into one of the buildings in Israel. But before it was too late, there was a miracle that happened that the or many miracles that happened that the other pilot uh uh what's it called? Got out of his unconsciousness and opened up the door to the cabin and uh before the guy crashed the plane, the people came in and attacked him. This is all over the news. But anyway, the uh the point is that this terrorist pilot that tried to kill 200 people, okay, they were all, you know, almost 200 Jew Israeli Jews. I can assure you before he made that crime, he made many other crimes. He didn't just become a criminal on that day. He didn't just become criminal on that day. He was a criminal before. He just did made that particular crime that day. You know before that I'm sure he was vicious to people to his wife to his kids to other people it's you don't just become a murderer just like that so any of those people whether it's the Muslims or the Christians or the other forms of heretics and idolattors around the world Jews or non-Jews alike they're not going to be judged based on just one simple bad act they've done in their life but rather a series of of of evil that they've committed throughout their lives. Uh and and certainly, you know, multiple lives for, you know, people that have reincarnated many times and they'll be just for it. >> Yeah. Next. Yeah. What's regret obviously that's not healthy. So more insights proper way of you know obviously you analyze your analyze yourself regret it not get to a point where you're >> well I I don't you know as far as getting into a depression I mean that that means that they're not really doing chuva they're they're just a uh you know they're doing something that's maybe sounds like chuva similar to chuva uh they want it to be chuva but it's not quite chuva and the reason Why is because the first step is to stop the sin. That's the first step. Uh second step is to do whatever they need to do to not go back to the sin. So let's just say for example if they were doing drugs, they're not only going to stop doing drugs, they're now going not going to go to the same places where they used to do drugs or the same people they used to do drugs with and so on and so forth. That's the first two steps. So they stop the crime and they are stopping themselves from going uh to places that they're going to commit the crime again. Now that in itself should create a certain amount of a uh uh benefit and happiness in that person's life over a period of time because as a result of doing the will of Hashem their life will improve. Now, the further they are from that sin, the more they're going to realize how bad that, you know, how how bad that sin was for them. Not just how bad it was and against the will of Hashem, but how bad it was for them to do it. How it's not it wasn't good for them. It wasn't beneficial for them. And that is going to make them regret that they didn't start keeping Shabbat sooner, that they used to do drugs or that they used to be immoral. the fact that they realize the magnitude of of of how bad this sin was for them, that is usually the first stage of understanding, you know, of having regret. And furthermore, they're going to the more they do the will of Hashem, the more they're going to care about the relationship they have with Hashem. that they're going to regret the fact that they damaged the relationship with Hashem in the past and they didn't develop this stronger relationship that they have right now with him sooner. So none of this should create a depression. Rather, this should create a closeness to Hashem and also a you know the only regret that they should have is that they missed out on an opportunity to do it sooner. That's not something that would cause any normal person a depression. That's just like gh I can't believe I could have been you know I could have been a bigger uh you know you know bigger sadik yesterday instead of today. I could have been a millionaire yesterday instead of today. I could have been married yesterday instead of today. So it's like the missing out of ah I could have done this sooner. I wish I would have done it sooner. That should never make a person depressed. Usually when people are depressed about something, it's because they're going in the wrong direction in some way where they're just harping on the fact that they've made a mistake without really truly fixing it. Like they're they're they're they're upset that they did something, but they're not necessarily one with the decision. They're just they're just, you know, upset that things didn't go right. So it's important for a person to you know uh always uh understand that Hashem created humans. Humans are expected to fail. Even if you're doing chuva, you will fail again in different things. Failure is not inherently evil. Accepting failure is evil. You understand? So there's a difference. If I uh uh fall, I am expected to get up. Even if I fall twice, I'm expected to get up twice. Even if fall seven times, I'm expected to get up seven times. No one is going to fall and just say, you know what, I fell already five times. I said, I was going to stand on the floor forever. I was going to lay down on the floor in the middle of the shoe forever. No, no, it's not. It's not a normal thing. Why? Even if you fell five or 10 or 50 times, you get up. So to fall is going to happen in life. Sometimes a person falls in anger. Sometimes a person falls with issues of morality. Sometimes a person falls for doing something dishonest. Falling is part of your journey that is going to happen. And we need to do for all of it. Accepting the the falling where it's you know what I fell. Ah with it. From now on I'm just I'm just going to live this way. I'm just going to stay on the floor. I'm just going to fail all the time. That's accepting the failure as as if it's okay and that's not okay. So I think that if a person is is doing chuva the proper way, they're going to realize that their mistakes are mistakes that is well aware of and he's giving you the chance of fixing it. Even if it's a horrible mistake, even if it's a terrible mistake and you being upset about it, you being depressed about it is misunderstanding the point. The whole mitzvah of the whole mitzvah of cha is that Hashem is giving us a chance to to fix the past. So if a person looks at all of the righteous people that are mentioned in the Torah, you'll see that some of them made very very big mistakes. For example, Gav was the wife of Yeshua Benoon. But before she was the wife of Yeshua Benoon, she was the most immoral person on planet earth. Okay? She that was her job. So So if she can not only do Chuva but also become the wife of the then surely you can do cha for whatever you did and and and also go in the right path. There's no reason to be upset uh about it forever. You can be upset about it for a certain period of time to say I'm sorry. But once a person says I'm sorry to Hashem, they cannot allow themselves to continue harping on that uh on that uh sorrow because harping on that sorrow is is a uh the Rambam says it's uh a person is not believing chuva is not accept is not believing that Hashem will forgive them and that's heresy. So it makes it's a bigger sin than when the sin that they've even made. So a person has to believe that Hashem is going to forgive them. If they say, "I'm sorry," they follow these footsteps, they have to believe. They're obligated to believe that Hashem will forgive them. So, and and if they don't believe it, then they're making a bigger sin than the sin that they're worried about. So, they're questioning God's mercy. So, that's uh it's not healthy. Yes. >> All of them. >> No, the seven The vid shalom. He says in we say this in the we say this in our prayers where he says that the uh Hashem is going to um one of the ways that Hashem is going to be glorified is uh is is going to be by the gim that hate is. The question is why why would say that the go that hate is are going to glorify name. This is not where they're going to have a change of heart and all of a sudden they're going to become righteous people. They're wicked before they're wicked after. But Hashem is going to use them to sanctify his name. How so? Because we live in a world where most people are oblivious to what's going on. So, for example, yesterday, as I mentioned before, there was a terror attack and a guy that's a pilot, licensed pilot, documented pilot, pilot with many, many flights decided to go from being a pilot to a terrorist. Now, in reality, he was a terrorist beforehand. It's just that now he was caught. And everybody's shocked at how this happened. Oh, I thought that since September 11th this could not happen. You know, they have all this protection measures and a security. They have the doors of the pilot and yeah, all that works as long as the pilot himself is not a terrorist. Like all that works. If the passenger is a terrorist, then he's not going to enter the, you know, the the the pilot. But if the pilot himself is a terrorist, then guess what? All of those plans are garbage. Okay. How do you get a knife? Like he eats. They give him uh They don't, you know, they're not like from Tripoli where we eat with our hands and stuff, you know. They eat with forks and knives. They were forks and knives. So So he had a fork and a knife and guess what? He could use a knife. And guess what? Even if they didn't give him a knife, he could use a pencil to be a murderer. So the the thing is though is that most people are surprised at what happened yesterday. as if this is the only terror attack that happened yesterday. The truth is there are many terror attempts every single day that we don't hear about either because they didn't work out or because they got caught or some other miracle happened where in so many words took this and hid it somewhere, threw it somewhere and it just it didn't cause anything. The plan didn't work. But we don't realize them happened. We only realize when something bad happens. We only realize after, you know, it's it turns into something that's tragic usually. So the says only the go the enemies of Isel, the anti-semites that are trying to murder them, the the the the evil Ishmael that's trying to slaughter us for no reason. It's just the Bible. Only they know how many times Hashem made miracles for us. Why? You know how many times we tried to kill you guys? But every time Hashem shut us down. Every time Hashem sent a miracle. Every And you guys didn't even know it happened. Why? Because you only find out if it's on the news and there's a tragedy. So that's the thing says these anti-semites, these enemies, these Nazis, they're going to they're they know more about Hashem's miracles than we do. Why? Because you know how many times they tried to kill us. So that's that's the that's the beauty of he gives us so many so many gifts. You know the say that there's different levels of gifts, different level of charity. You give charity first of all if a person has charity they want to give they want to give taka they first have to check people in their own house their mother their father their you know the people that are living in their own house if there's somebody poor inside your own house you have to provide to them first you have to provide to them you can't say listen but but I like my rabbi and I'm going to donate to him no if your mom needs give to your mom if she's poor she needs you have to help her first yeah you want to publicize and you want to do good Thanks. But if your mom or dad are poor, they don't have food to eat and provide for them. Uh so first then he goes to a person that gives in his uh you know his uh in his community or he gives into you know uh in his city and so on and so forth. But asked what is let's say a person decides who to give to. Okay, it's the best place to give to but what's the best way of giving? So they say the best way of giving is what's to give to the person where he doesn't know I gave him and I don't even know who I gave to. I gave to somebody that's a uh I wanted to donate to publicize Tua. I wanted to public to help somebody do Chuva. I wanted to uh uh uh you know sponsor a call but I don't know which one I trust you rabbi that you're gonna do that and guess what the caller recipients they don't even know where they got it from that's the highest level of giving Hashem does his own mitzvot every day he gives mata all the time how how many times did the go anti-semites Nazis try to kill us and we didn't even know what But even happened. He already destroyed them before it even happened. Not all of it goes on the news. And even more so, how many times did a person, you know, get a gifts from Hashem that initially looked like tragedies? You know, there's a story of a guy that had a newborn baby and he lived in a uh apartment where they had uh stairs that were very, very thin and if you're not careful, you could trip. So, he had a newborn baby. He was going to take it out. And uh as he's going down the stairs, he slip down the stairs with the baby in his hands. T they fall down the stairs together. Immediately they go to the hospital and he's thinking for sure this this baby is going to die. He's you know he's he's feels miserable and then the doctors come out and they say hashem the baby's okay. And even more about Hashem that because we had to look at his brain and everything what happened to see if everything's okay. We actually discovered that there's a something in his uh brain. It's microscopic that we could easily fix, but if we didn't fix it, he would have probably died within the next year. We could easily fix it at this stage, but if we didn't fix it, he would have easily died the next year. And the only reason they're looking at it is not because of the fall. He was born with this. He was born with this and something didn't develop and we can easily fix it. Which means that what looks like a disaster that the baby fell and get injured and so on was really Hashem saving the baby's life. But he wanted to show the parents, he wanted to show the doctors that uh that he's doing it. So there are many times where uh will give us gifts that uh are in in hiding where we don't even realize what he gave us. Uh but there are some times that a person can see it. Most important thing is to always look for Hashem's hand and everything and you'll find it. And even after we find it, it's still not even a microcosm of how much he's giving us. >> Yes. connection to what you mentioned earlier regarding sometimes people >> in some way as there's a way there's an idea that we are not generation we do not know how to >> right >> how is this relevant really or not >> that's also a that's just misinterpreted. Uh where uh the saying that we have an obligation to rebuke. So much so that the uh uh Shabbat says that uh punished the righteous people um first meaning the religious people first before he punished the uh the secular people or the wicked people at the time of the destruction of the beta mikdash because the religious people did not rebuke the secular people uh because it's it's called all of Islam is responsible for each other And there's many stories of how much uh the Torah itself obligates us. It's a biblical mitzvah uh of that you have to rebuke your fellow Jew. But then at some point the G also says that uh rebuke uh is something that's difficult because sometimes a person doesn't know how to rebuke. Now this is not referring to a person doesn't know how to rebuke about everything. Rather what the is saying is that in the past previous generations the righteous people were so righteous the was so was such high level that they were able to rebuke in everything because they themselves were complete with everything they were completely righteous they were doing everything good so they could help you with everything he says now we're not completely righteous you know so okay so I keep I keep I keep kosher I okay I keep all those things but I'm an angry guy so I can't rebuke him about being angry like my father he wasn't angry he was all the things that I am plus he wasn't angry so he can rebuke on everything but me I'm angry so I can't rebuke him unry so that's in essence what the is saying not saying that we can't rebuke at all that would that would uh uh cancel out a biblical mitzvah which could never be no mitzvah could ever be canceled what it means is that we are not as completely righteous as the previous generation. And therefore, we cannot rebuke in everything like the previous generations. But no one is telling you to rebuke in everything. What the Torah is telling you is to rebuke in something that is relevant to you. You know how to keep Shabbat and you see your fellow Jew driving on Shabbat, you have to rebuke him on. You know how to be loyal to your wife. You see your fellow Jew is committing adultery, rebuke him about being an adulteress. No, no one is saying if you're a thief, you should rebuke your fellow thieves. No, you'll be a hypocrite. You can't rebuke other people on the same crimes that you're committing. It won't work anyway. What the Torah is saying is that you have to rebuke your fellow Jew. That is your brother. What does it mean your brother? Your brother in mitzvot. Meaning you two are doing the same thing. You're doing it right. He's not doing it right. to fix him. Help him out. No help him in uh Nobody is telling you to to teach him how to uh capture the the the the eggs in the bird's nest that you never did before. He's telling you the things that you know, that's what you should worry about. And today, because of, you know, we have so many shulim online and there's so many Torah books available and everything else, a person could uh offer rebuke in so many different ways, even without saying a word. Sometimes you could just simply send a video to somebody. Sometimes you could give a book to somebody. You could do you can rebuke in a lot of different ways. It doesn't necessarily need to be a uh uh a discussion. But for those people that are uh that are able to have discussions, that are able to talk to their to to somebody, they should be >> not the same. That's that's actually the rebuke because you know they because of this I what if I rebuke him and then you know he doesn't take it you know part or you know he's mad at me or things like that. They a lot of people are using this in this way that that's the reason why you know we're not allowed to be you know to be anymore because they you know are very sensitive and you know they might you know get frustrated get mad and then you know they just they just you know you don't listen to your worse. >> Okay. Well they >> how we deal with this? >> Okay. Well, first off, the the first way that those people should deal with their problem is that they should learn Torah instead of logic because their logic is wrong. Uh I would give them a good suggestion. They come to our perhaps over here they could learn how why their logic is so wrong because Torah says that you shouldn't come to sin as a result of your rebuking them has nothing to do with embarrassing them. There are certain rebukes where you are not only uh allowed to you're obligated to embarrass somebody. There are certain laws, there are certain things, certain sins that a person makes where you're not only allowed to embarrass them, you're obligated to embarrass them. You know, talking is one of them. If a person makes a uh a big sin in front of people, uh you know, immorality or things like that, you're obligated to embarrass them. It's not a uh it's not like the guy the guy's, you know, beating up somebody. You say, "Okay, I'll wait for him to finish and then I'll tell him you shouldn't do it. I I'll wait for him to, you know, to to to kill the guy and then I'll tell him, "No, you shouldn't have done that." No, no, no. It's not That's not It's not It's not I don't want to embarrass him. I don't It makes me, you know, I don't want to embarrass him. I don't want to embarrass him. It's like, you know, it's like the the Israeli government and how they treat their own soldiers. Unfortunately, you know, the the soldiers in Israel, they're they're they're they have to defend the country, but they're not allowed to kill the enemy terrorists. So, what do they tell them? No, you're not allowed to kill them. You're not allowed to kill them. So, what do you want us to do with them? They're trying to kill us. They are killing us, but we're not allowed to kill them. So, you know what the suggestion is? Maybe you should give them water guns, but you have to make sure that the the water is not too hot. The water is not too hot. So, they don't get burnt from the water. and also carry towel with you because in case you know he gets water he's going to you know you give him a towel. So this type of mentality is ludicrous. The Torah is telling us is you have to you rebuke your fellow Jew for making sins for going against the Torah. That's one that's section one. You shouldn't come to sin as a result of number one not rebuking him because if you don't rebuke him into sin by default by default in sin you see your fellow Jews uh going against the Torah you're able to rebuke him you choose not to the sin goes on you and him so there's two people got to instead of one that's number one number two don't rebuke him in a way that's unnecessary meaning that you're going to tell him a uh you So, uh, uh, you could tell them, listen, you're not allowed to do this. Uh, if you could tell them one-on-one, if you could tell them, uh, you know, it doesn't need to be in front of 50 people. There are certain things you have to do in front of 50 people because he's making a big sin in front of other people. But if, let's say, for example, you saw the guy driving on Shabbat and then, you know, he drove away already and when you saw him again, he came and you were in front of 50 people. You don't have to tell them right there and then in front of 50 people that, "Hey, by the way, I saw you drive on Shabbat, you wicked piece of ta people." You don't need to do that. You could say, "Listen, want to have coffee? Want coffee?" "Yeah, sure. I'll have coffee." "Come on, we'll have coffee. It's free coffee here center. Free coffee in the kitchen and uh you know, we'll go have some free coffee." And then as you're making coffee, by the way, did you see Rabbi Ruven's shabbat? No. No, I didn't see it. Wow. Crazy. I saw it. I know it was a few years ago. I just thought about it, but he said somebody that drives on Shabbat is considered like an idol worshipper. Can you believe that? Can you believe that? And the guy's like, "Really? Wow. I want to see that." Yeah. Let me show it to you. You get the little, you know, BHF. You set up thing. Let me show you. And guess what? You rebuked them without even telling them. And guess what? You didn't do it in front of 50 people unnecessarily. You didn't do it unnecessarily. So in so many words, the Tawa is telling us use your use your brain to do things right. Just like you would want someone to correct you, constructive correction is important. Uh constructive criticism is important. Just like you would want constructive criticism, you should do it yourself. But it's not saying that, oh, I'm afraid that he's going to be offended by what? What is he going to be offended about? If I'm telling him, listen, by the way, you know, you're uh you know, we care about you and we care about your kids and uh we u think that uh since you're married, but you're cheating on your uh husband, you should tell your husband uh that you don't want to be married anymore. You know, if she says, "Oh, how dare you? You're offended. I like my boyfriend and my husband who you you shouldn't get involved with." No one will take such a person seriously. Why? Because obviously you know what the difference between right and wrong. same concept which you tell somebody listen you're violating Shabbat or you're stealing in your business or you're doing whatever sin that you're you're you're rebuking them about them being offended about what they're doing why is why is that even a concern to you not doing you're not you're not insulting them you're simply telling them that what they're doing is against the Torah it's not an insult if you're calling them names say listen you a piece of this and this you're violating uh then okay then you should ashamed of yourself for talking like that. But if you're just simply telling them, listen, what you're doing is not allowed. You're violating the uh the laws, there's nothing insulting about that. So the people that are worried about, you know, offending people, it's usually because they're trying to absolve themselves from the responsibility. They just don't want to deal with it. They want to deal with it. Now, yes, it may be that some people don't like hearing it. And it's usually is what some people don't like to hearing it where they tell you, "Listen, thank you for uh you know, for telling me about uh not driving on Shabbat, but uh I'll do whatever I want. Thank you, but no thank you." Okay. Thank you, but no thank you. You did your job. You tried. If they choose not to listen, then you try again next time. Next time we try a different way, you know, but as far as as far as upsetting them, what's upsetting? If if if somebody was about to drink poison, would you be worried if they're upset that you tell them not to drink it? No. Because you know, you know that it's best for them. They just don't realize it. So, I wouldn't I wouldn't worry so much about uh stuff like that. Yeah. >> Two weeks ago, this is exactly connected to what you're speaking about. Mhm. >> I was invited to my uncle's house >> family >> and then two people like a couple that my uncle knows about invited themselves for Shabbat their Shabbat. So they came I think they even No, they were they were staying at my uncle's house. So then we I then I then figured out that he was they were using their phones on Shabbat. M >> so me and my uncle have been having this argument about like how to rebuke etc. So right after the Shabbat meal, I went up to him. I want to see if this approach is right. What I did, but I approached him. I said, "Listen, what you're doing is a very serious it's a very serious crime punishment and you're going to get punished." You know, I'm saying this like from a brother to brother, but you have to keep Shabbat. So we were like telling him not to drive on Shabbat because after the Shabbat meal, he they were on the way to their car to drive on Shabbat. Mhm. >> So I told him this before like I said I I told him straight up like I didn't sugarcoat anything. So I'm wondering if this way of right way of >> it depends on a case by case basis. It's not there's no oneizefits all rebuking. Number one it depends on what kind of relationship you have with the person. Stranger. I don't know. >> Uh stranger again it depends what kind of what kind of a uh you know what's the uh format that you've talked. I spoke to somebody I came to the center the other day and uh he uh start we started talking and I told him that yes what he's doing is against the Torah and uh you know he should do chuva but again there's a certain way to talk to certain people and there's a different way to talk to other people. So there's no oneizefits all. experience is really the the best teacher. It's not it's not a uh it's not necessarily a uh uh there's one way for everybody. Like I you know the guy I spoke to the other day that came by I spoke to him for almost two hours and I told him during that conversation that he in the same sentence I told him that currently you're a criminal against Hashem but that doesn't necessarily mean that it has to stay that way. That doesn't necessarily mean that you are a uh you're a murderer or you're a bad guy even to other people. It just means that according to the you're going against. So the guy you know understood that yes on one end it's not nice to be called a criminal but another end that statement was qualified and it did did take into account the fact that he is a nice guy. >> You understand? So so that's the thing you have with experience you learn how to talk to certain people the way they need to be spoken to. Uh but that also means that uh you know you you have to also uh give them the information they need um in a way that is going to be most likely to succeed. So to go tell a guy listen what you're doing is not good. Hashem is going to punish you. Uh you know that in itself by itself is not a good strategy. Why? You're not giving him a reason to change. All you're telling them is that bad things will happen. What you should be doing is giving them a source of information. Meaning, by the way, I don't know if you realize, but violating Shabbat, driving on Shabbat is not allowed. And there's this cool video, really cool video. It's only like 17 minutes. I'll send you I want to I want to watch it with you. I want to watch it with you. Or better yet, you should have it prepared on your phone already. And as soon as it's a cool video, I want to show it to you and just start watching it. Don't even ask the guy. Just start watching it together with him. And guess what? Now you're at the very least you're providing him some type of context for what you're saying that's not necessarily coming from you. It's coming from a third party. So it's easier for him to trust that third party. And also he's seeing that it's not your personal bias. Rather it's coming from somewhere else. >> So what if let me ask you >> so it's better to provide people information than simple criticism. What if for example as you're showing him the video >> he starts giving his own insights about oh I don't agree with this like an independent thinker >> I don't agree with this I think what he's saying is too fanatic and I don't have the tools exactly to really back up the back up the claim that Shabbat is not allowed you know what I mean I don't have the tools or like the sources that I can >> You don't need to have the sources even if you had the sources we would have listened to you anyway If he's that opinionated, he's not looking for the truth. He's looking for, you know, simply an opinion that agrees with his. So, you can provide a person information and uh you know, usually if you provide him one of our lectures, usually we provide sources for everything that we say. Everything has to have a receipt, everything has to have qualification, everything has to have some type of page number, some type of uh uh name. Uh so if he simply disagrees with the sources that's you know then there's nothing you can do to help such a person. If he uh says no I don't think that's true and tell him listen listen he brings up the source let's see what source he has that he's so usually if a person listens long enough they'll they'll hear a source they'll hear a source. Now if they say they disagree with the source then there's not much that you can do for such a person because they're simply denying the Torah. So usually uh if a person is looking for the truth, they'll uh you know the uh you don't need to necessarily provide them a page number or a book name to tell them >> convince them. Do I have to convince them to >> No, you tell them. >> Because I thought that was the whole point. The whole I thought the whole point of doing Q is to convince them to become religious. >> It's not about convincing them. It's providing them information that they're going in the wrong direction. You're not necessarily you're not necessar you don't need to convince them to go in the right direction. No one wants to go in the right direction. It's just that they don't know that they're going in the right wrong direction. You have to understand that the the worst thing that a person uh can feel is that somebody fooled him. That's like the worst feeling. So most people, they live wors
