Can Orthodox Jewish Community Make Peace With Reform | WAR OF AMALEK (32)

[Music] Coming soon to Chuga Music. You guys get a little taste of it. [Music] We taste a world without sorrow or shame. But now she leaves. Her time is gone. Will you rise and walk her home before dawn? Don't let her leave alone tonight. The queen who brought one last meal, one final song. A love song for Shabbat. [Music] Cried with grace. Let me not leave this world on Shabbat's face. So each week he'd rejoice once Shabbat was through. A meal of thanks, the soul renewed. We eat, we sing, we hold the flame. We carry his legacy in her name. Don't let her leave alone tonight. The queen who brought a sinless life. One last meal. One final song to hold her close before she's gone. My love crown for souls who do not sleep. Don't say I'm done. We're back here on our Tuesday night war of series. Tonight's show is going to be for the and also Mazalto toe, a new uh addition to the family, a baby boy, Sadik Kadoshm. May uh the uh the mother and the baby and the father all have and all the blessings of the and also for the foravid and all of Israel and all the righteous people that continue to support the organization by donating on our website.org or distributing our uh books and USBs that are all for free that you can get them from our Kiru store kofstore.org. All the people that are distributing these books are simply helping is get closer and closer to and there's simply nothing greater than that in this uh generation that we live in. We'll see that. So, there is a um very very big thing that's been going on for many years that uh I don't believe we addressed the same way we'll address it tonight as puts it, which is making shalom. Making shalom. question is, can the orthodox Jewish community make shalom with the reform, with the musculim, with the Zionists, with all of the people that don't follow the Torah and mitzvah to say it lightly, more uh more correctly fight the Torah. But can we make peace? Now, if you ask around and today you don't really have to ask because everyone has a microphone and a camera all of a sudden becomes very opinionated too. And there are many that claim that the Orthodox Jewish community should come to an agreement with the reformer and the Zionists for the pace for the sake of shalom. They will even tell you that the Torah says we need to do it for the sake of shalom's war of series is going to address this issue on both ends. Since there are some people that are extreme on one side and others on the other side, it's best we address both of them. And by extreme I mean some are for the sake will do anything for the sake of shalom and some will do anything for the sake of war. So in one end you see somebody saying listen just make shalom okay they don't want to keep that's their problem let's just have peace. On the other hand, you see people like the leaders from Karta that hate everyone else so much that they go and they shake hands and have meetings with the leaders of Iran and other people that are killing Jews or like some foolish journalist today in Israel who claimed to be religious but yet was happy. He wrote he was happy that five Israeli soldiers died. We'd be happy if it wasn't them but him with such a uh such a uh comment. But nonetheless, you see, what do you mean? They're not religious. They're not following the Torah. We have to hate them. Is it true that we have to hate them? On the other hand, is it true that we have to make peace with everyone? These are questions that seem political, but really they're all Torah. has warned us time and again about choosing heretics, reformers or as they called them in those days masculim to lead the people politically represent the Jewish people politically. He warned us not to do it because these people do not have Torah. In fact, they don't like the Torah. They don't follow the Torah. Even if sometimes you'll see a keepa on their head. And ultimately, he said something shocking, which is that no matter what you do, nothing good will ever come of it. Because when there's no dora, when a person is not following what the Torah says, nothing good will come out of it. Ultimately, it will be a disaster. Even if there is illusions that may be worked out. And then he starts in this section, section 26, and he says as follows. But despite all of the things that I've shown you here, there are still some people among those who fear Hashem, meaning he's referring to the religious community. He's even referring to some rabbis. There are still some that choose to be lenient with this matter and their main rationale is either for the sake of shalom or because of fear that if we don't come to an agreement with the musculim with the Zionist with the reformers we can get hurt either they themselves will hurt us because many of them are very powerful and rich and politically connected or we won't be represented in government and this could be a very serious problem. So is telling us everything I told you is based on what the Torah said. And other people that learned Tawa in our community know this too. But yet they choose to be lenient. They choose to say, "Ah, let's just make peace with these masculine. Let's put them in a political position. Tell them what we want for the religious community. We want freedom. We are expecting this prejudice and abuse to stop and so on and so forth. Every community has its requests and we'll send this mosquil to Donald Trump. send this musk to all of the other nations to represent us. Yeah, but he's not exactly and in fact he's not even Why would you send them to represent is Listen, let's just make peace. Let's just make peace. If we put them in power, maybe they'll like us more. Maybe they'll see that we're not so different after all. We're not judging them. Says this is a mistake because nothing will good will ever come out of it. But what about their argument? The argument that if we don't do this, then there's going to be fighting. Then the government of Israel and the court of Israel will continue passing new laws just to declare bigger war against the religious community. Whether it's decreeing that any Torah scholar, any Shiva that learns Tawra and does not go to the army is considered a criminal and even put him in jail. Or anyone that's living a religious Jewish life to the point where the husband is learning Torah is now going to be penalized by the government and not even get the basic benefits that the Arabs are getting. Needless to say, the other Jews that are not exactly always contributing to the country. People always complain about the religious community not joining the army in Israel, but rarely does anybody mention the countless young people that live in Tel Aviv and other places in Israel that also don't join the army, but not because of religious reasons. They just don't want to. Now, if the argument was purely one side versus the other, it would be easier to resolve. We know what the Torah says. They don't care what the Torah says. And that's the uh line that separates us. But is saying, "No, there's a problem here." You see, there's some in our camp, some religious people, some people that are part of the community that fears God, that say they are more lenient in this regard because of shalom, because they want to make peace. Do they have a leg to stand on? They'll tell you the Torah says so in says that the sages decreed certain things for the sake of peace. So you should also we'll get to that in a little while. But is telling us our problem is not really the other side. Our problems are within ourselves. While everyone thought that this current government in Israel will be the most favorable one for the Jewish community, we've seen it's been the opposite. While many thought that the previous prime minister, even though it was only prime minister for a minute, was going to be good because he wore a tiny little keepa, he ended up being the worst. Many times people expect certain things but see the other. See the other side, see that it's they weren't right. In fact, the Torah is always right because it tells you to judge things based on Torah, based on who is following the Torah and not necessarily who's following their emotions and inclinations. Now, the inh page 59 A and B has a Mishna over there. And it tells us clearly that the sages instituted certain enactments in order to make peace. Sounds reasonable enough. What could go wrong? What did they do? What's wrong with that? We said listen if there is a prayer and we do aliot on Monday, Thursday and Shabbat. The first aliyah goes to the second aliyah goes to the levie and the third aliyah goes to is why do we have to do that? So there's no fighting. Oh, I came here first. I came here second. I'm older. I'm younger. I'm smarter. Says no. Listen. First person that's going to get an aliat to the is always going to be awen no matter what ka you're in. Second one is going to be a levy. Third one is going to be is now if you don't have a co obviously you put a levy instead. But the point being is the sages said this has to be done everywhere. No matter if you're a yeite there's the way. Okay. Secondly, if there's an uv, you want to make an u between two houses or multiple houses every week, the always has to be in the same house. Why? So there shalom. So nobody fights. No, last week it was your house. This week it's my turn. No, no, it should always be the same house. No need to fight about this. Third, if there's a system, whichever one the uh the system that's closest to the source of the irrigation channel has to be filled first. Why? Because the sages argued that no farmer really has a greater entitlement to the water than the other according to the Torah. But if we say, listen, whoever gets there first gets the water, people going to fight. They're going to push each other. The says that even the kanim fought over who gets the first until the they made a rule. No, no, you can't run. It can't uh it's not it's not about who gets here first because one time two kanim were running to get to be the one that has chosen to do the one guy pushed the other. He ended up breaking his leg inside the beta mikdash. Another time one coin stabbed another coin. So they were so eager to do the mitzvah they forgot that there's also sins. So here they're saying the same thing when it comes to water. Even though according to the Torah it's first come first serve. There's no he doesn't have one right more right to the water than the other. Just to you know to eliminate any fighting between the farmers. Let's just make a rule that the farmer that has a sistern that's furthest upstream, meaning that it's closest to the source of water, he gets his fill first. Very reasonable. Now, if somebody catches an animal in his trap, according to the Torah, it doesn't become his property. Yeah, but it's his trap. Yes, but what if he left? What if he forgot about it? But either way, you only something becomes your property when you uh you take ownership of it but with your hand. So even though it's in his trap, it doesn't become his property according to the Torah. But the said the people going to fight. So what we're going to do in order to maintain peace if something is in somebody's trap it becomes his. Okay. If somebody that's a deaf mute or an insane person or even a child finds something, it's not considered their property because they're not an adult or a sane person. But this create fighting. What if this person that's has something mental illness finds $100 and another person says, "Ah, give me the $100." And he doesn't care cuz he's insane. He doesn't care about the $100. You give him a candy instead of $100, he's happy. But the same said, "No, it's going to cause fighting." So even though the Torah doesn't obligate us in order to protect the people from fighting, if an insane person, a deaf mute person or even a child find something, you're not allowed to take it from them. It becomes their property. So all types of different rules to make peace. The Bishna even says if we have a food distribution where uh all of the people are coming to collect the from the PA the the the remains or what's left for the poor as an obligation for the farmers to leave a section of theirh crops whatever fell off the trees. The poor people get it. What if one of those poor people is an idol worshipper? You tell them, "No, get out of here. It's only for Jews." Kamim said, "Don't do that. Let's let him take. He's an idol worshipper." Yes, we're not uh agreeing with his religious beliefs. But if you tell this poor idol worshipper to get out of here, it create more harm than good. In fact, says that there was a certain pig farmer that uh at the time of Rome that the kids used to make fun of. Jewish kids used to pass by and make fun of them. and his Jewish uh uh this uh Jewish kids weren't following the Torah. Obviously, they weren't doing good things, but they thought, "Listen, he's a pig farmer. He's an idol worshipper. Let's make fun of him." One day, the says this pig farmer became the Caesar. They chose him to be the Caesar. And the first thing that he wanted to do was to kill Jewish people, take revenge against them. When the heard that he became the Caesar, immediately they knew that we have to fix this problem before it's too late. They went to him and he tried to not let them come in. All types of traps. We'll perhaps go into the details of the story another time, but eventually they got in front of him after he saw that literally Hashem is making miracles for them just for them to appear in front of him. And he says to them that he's only letting them in because Hashem is clearly sees that Hashem is making miracles for them. that that doesn't mean just because God makes miracles for you, they should treat uh people uh wrong. And the sages said to him, "No, when we mistreated someone, it was only the pig farmer that we mistreated, not the Caesar that we mistreated." Meaning it was two different people. They didn't want to mention that it was him. Everyone knew it was him. But no, we uh we only disrespected a pig farmer because he wasn't anything we but but the the Caesar we honor him and respect him and so on. So same concept here say if an idol worshipper comes to your distribution let him take the food. In fact, we had one time and a many food distributions and money distributions that we do different needy situations and we get to meet a lot of different people. Everybody signs up. We want to make sure that the people that we give to really need and most importantly that uh it's not something that's uh could be a problem. and we've helped hundreds of thousands of Jews eat in over the years and we continue to do so where right now we have a campaign to help as many people that have been damaged by the war that lost their homes. But sometimes there's nothing you can do about something even though your heart tells you to do otherwise. What do I mean? in the uh one of the events we went we sent our guys our team to the hotel where there was a bunch of uh Jews that have been displaced from their homes that uh you know needed as much help as we can. So what we do is we sent our guys to the lobby. We had a list of names of everybody and we told everyone to come at such and such time and each person gets a basket. We gave him uh you know gave him some money, gave him books, gave him some candy, all types of you know cute things to to give them some kizook also. Now there's a lot of people hundreds of people are getting it. And one of the other people that was in the hotel that lost their home was an Arab and he saw all the other people in the hotel getting it. He went also. He went also together. Listen, I'm here. I lost my house. I'm a victim. And guess what? They gave him money. Why they gave him money? If his uh Ishmiley brothers are the ones that are are hurting us because of Shalom to make peace. To make peace. Now, I'm not saying go into uh Gaza and start giving food out to all of the enemies. But the point is is that in such a situation, this is what the is talking about. Now this is what many are using as look the sages said go make peace. Go make peace. Even if it's with an idol worshipper, even if it's with a competitor, even if it's this, even if it's that, make peace. Peace is very important. Shalom is very important in the eyes of God. And they'll even tell you it's so important that Hashem is even going to allow himself to his name to be erased for the sake to be. So therefore, you should make peace with the masqu. The problem is that's not the same. And those that say that they're just being more lenient for the sake of the benefit and the peace of the nation. In reality, it's not because of that. They just don't care. As the says, if you see somebody going into a store and start taking stuff out and throw it out in the streets and then go back into the store, get some more stuff and throw it into the streets. Thousands of dollars being wasted. And then he goes into the store again, gets a bunch of stuff, and throws it into the streets. Lets the cars run over it. Let people take it. There's one thing the says that you know for sure from this and what's that? It's not his store. It's not his store. That's why he doesn't care. And the said this about the Muskim, the reformers. He said, "We saw them. Take parts of the Torah and remove it. Throw it into the streets. No more Shabbat. No more kashoot. Three times a day prayer. No, no, let's just pray only once. Let's just pray once a week. Let's just pray whenever we feel like it." And they continued throwing out different parts of the Torah. You know why? Because not their Torah. They don't care. They've not accepted the Torah. They don't accept the Torah. As one poor guy sends me an email says, "Rabbi, please help me with my father." What happened? His father wants to be a He wants to eat pig. He wants to eat shrimp. He wants to drive on Shabbat. But it's not enough that he's eating non-cooser and violating Shabbat. But it bothers him that his son with his precious nama is trying to do chuva. He's trying to keep Shabbat. Walks a mile or two miles to to to a synagogue. He's trying to eat kosher. It bothers the father. He doesn't want it. No. No. No. Why? Why are you learning Tawa? Why are you uh keeping Shabbat? He says, when I mention let's eat kosher food to him, he acts as if I'm cursing him. He's so revolted by it. That's the masculai. Now I don't know if this guy is a musk or not because could be just he's that clueless that he doesn't understand but he's simply the outcome of the masculim where they have thrown out so many of the mitzvot of the Torah that if you walk outside of the reformed synagogues because you're not allowed to enter it and you peek in to to hear what's going on in there there's no resemblance of what they're doing to what Judaism is. Nothing. Completely different. The rabbi is not a rabbi. It's a woman. Most of the time she's not even Jewish. The head of the reform movement is a non-Jewish Asian woman. Just so you understand. So the says they threw out all the rules because they don't care. It's not their their Torah. It's not their Torah. They don't accept the Torah. Now the messengers that you from the orthodox community that want to be lenient, the messengers that you're choosing, the pragers and Shapiro of the world and the of the world and whoever else these messengers that you're choosing to support to say they are the Jewish voice in the politics in the media with or without a keeper. You also have to understand you're saying that they are representation because they claim to care about am is but the truth is that they pretend to care. They care for their own interest but we've already talked about that part. What about the person that's being lenient? You're also pretending to care about Alis. The truth is you don't care. You just want quiet. This is like a parent. Sometimes the kids come and ask for something. Oh, Aba, can I uh stay up for another half hour? Can I stay up for another hour? Can I stay up for another 10 minutes? That could be late already. And the father wants them to go to sleep. It's they need to get sleep. They need to be healthy. They need to wake up early in the morning and so on. But sometimes the father just doesn't care because an extra 10 minutes is not really a big deal or perhaps the next day they don't have to wake up so early. Or perhaps he's so busy with the things that he needs to do, he just wants silence. So to deal with them crying just to for the sake of 10 minutes, it's not worth it. So he just go Yeah, fine. Fine. Just stay up for another 10 minutes, but then go to sleep. Why? He doesn't care enough about this issue because he has some bigger problem he has to deal with. And parents do that all the time. It's not that they don't care at all. said, "This particular issue, I'm not going to fight for it. There's other things I'll fight for. There's other things that I have to." The same concept goes with people that say, "Listen, we need to make peace with everyone, no matter what their beliefs are, for the sake of peace." And says, "So if you want peace to such an extent that you're willing to make peace with these types of people that distort our Torah, nullify, reject, disgrace, fight our Torah. You want to make peace with them. Why? Because you claim that the Torah says to make peace, then why not just go and make shalom with the Satan himself, with the go make shalom with him also? That way, if you make shalom with the you make shalom with the Satan, all you have to do is just listen to what he says and then there's not going to be any war anymore. It's not going to be any war. He's not going to fight for your nish anymore because you're just doing whatever he says. So, might as well go make go make peace with the satan. But then the religious person doesn't come to you. No, come on, Rabbi. I'm not Satanist. I'm a religious Jew. I keep Shabbat. I come from a My father was a rabbi. My grandmother was a raid. And no, I'm not going to make peace with the rabbi. Come on. Well, I'm just trying to make sham with this uh with this moss fellow. What's the problem? What's the problem? It's not that you're trying to make peace with them in order to try to do kiru to help him do chuva. You're making peace by in essence enabling him to not only continue acting against the Torah, but actually even giving him more power by saying he's going to represent the Jewish people because you're putting him in charge as a so-called political messenger. Even if you're not directly putting him in charge, you're supporting him. You're watching a show, you're donating to his uh organization, whatever it is, you're simply rejecting the fact that this representative lacks Torah and in fact speaks against the Torah. But you're going to tell me that you don't want to make peace with the Satan? Why not? No, but because we're religious. Well, if that's true, then you don't want to make peace with the Satan. Then how do you justify that you're making peace with the Satan's messengers? You're saying you're religious, you follow Torah, therefore you don't want to make peace. You don't make shalom with the Satan, with the with the you don't make peace with him. says the Satan has multiple names who called him evil. You don't have peace with him because you want to follow Hashem but yet you want to make peace with the Satan's messengers. Why? It's either because you don't believe that they are the Satan's messengers or because you yourself don't understand enough in order to know what the Satan wants. Now, you want to make peace with somebody that is going to bring shalom at the cost of disgracing, violating, and rejecting the Torah. So you want to make a campaign. You want to make a deal, an agreement to join parties, but you know that they hate the Torah. You know they fight the Torah. You know that they disrespect the Torah. But you say, "No, no, no. They're not going to do that once we become friends." Doesn't work that way. In fact, you say, "Well, listen, there are times you have to make peace with the wicked." Just like the story you said about the sages that made peace with the Caesar that used to be a pig farmer. Yes, you're right. There are times that you absolutely can and should and need to make peace with wicked people. But you must understand the rules. And the Torah says in the book of Isaiah chapter 48 verse and shalom no shalom. Hashem said to the wicked. So what does that mean? So you're not allowed to make peace. know is that you can make peace but there are conditions. There are conditions to this peace. It's not peace with eyes closed. One of the greatest examples that we can see from recent history, recent I mean the last couple hundred years of one of Israel that fought against the Masim tooth and nail. And while they hated him, they also feared and respected him. They tried to kill him. They even got him arrested for the point of death penalty. They got the goim to arrest him and boem made a miracle and he was freed and then had to flee the country. But the war was a lifelong war. And this gadul was the malim who lived about 165 years ago and he fought against the muskim the reformers his whole life. In fact, his commentary on the entire the entire Torah was because he had to fight against the muskim in order to make sure that there's the right commentary available to the average person out there and the expert because the muskim didn't come like they do today as non-Jewish Asian goyad that's a rabbi. No, in those days they were Jewish and some of them were even rabbis or former rabbis or Shivot. They knew they knew a lot of stuff and they would come with all types of convoluted arguments very similar to a manis freedman type of but they didn't pretend to be orthodox Jewish rabbis like Manis does or to represent they hated and the Malbeim fought against these And he once said like a parable. He said one day I was walking and I saw the Satan and he was running. Said why are you running? And Satan tells me listen there's a new generation a lot to do. I have a lot of work to do. Got to make everybody sin. years later, Muskim started coming and I see the Satan again, but this time he's walking slowly with a hat, with a stick, a walking stick, comfortable, enjoying life. And I asked him what happened. Satan tells me, "Oh, I don't need to work anymore. I put these messengers, these masculs. They do the job for me. They even do a better job than I do. So I don't have to do anything. They're making people sin." And then years later, Malim says I saw the Satan again, but this time he was running again. I said, "What happened now?" He says, "Listen, these maskeeim did such a good job. I have to come back to work to help them take care of all the volume. How many people are making sins now because of them? So many people fell for the trap of the reformers that they have descendants today that literally hate anything remotely Jewish. I saw a video recently somebody made. I didn't promote it, share it, and even when somebody asked me about it, whether they should share it or not, I told them they shouldn't because although everything as far as the overall argument of what they said about the Masim, the reformers, the all the different names that they have was true. They put a face. Oh, this person is this person. And again, you have to be careful before you put a face to ideas you have without Torah as a confirmation. But unfortunately, everybody knows that some of the biggest enemies of the Jewish world, and I don't just mean the religious Jewish world, the Jewish world, Israel, everything at large are unfortunately are Jews. Many of them are Hollywood celebrities that became famous and rich and now they hate their own people and they cheer and support the enemies of their people. Whether it's the Palestinian terrorists or it's Iran or it's pretty much anything and everything against the Jewish people. One of the biggest supporters of anti-semitism in the world today is George Soros. But he has been an anti-semite Jew. Anti-Semite his whole life which all started the Holocaust where he went and ratted on other Jews and got other Jews killed just to save his own life. Since he was a kid, he was evil. He only became more evil with time and age and money. He supports all of these protests against Israel, everything against the truth. He's like one of the top in the pyramid of evil. But there are others also, celebrities, famous people, people you if you still watch TV and movies, you probably watch their films without even realizing that they're actually anti not only anti- Torah, not only living secular lives, but they actually hate Jews. So really the biggest issues we've had have not been Iran, Iraq, Palestine, all the other madeup uh places. No, our biggest problem has been ourselves. And the Torah itself says so. Your conquerors, your destroyers will come from within you. Now, the Malbeim fought against the enemy within. And it wasn't a one-time fight. It was an ongoing thing. One time the Malabim was giving a shor and a few reformers showed up. A few muskim showed up to the bet midash and of course they get everybody's attention because usually they were very successful. They were very popular. They were very uh feared. And the malim said, "Oh, you you know you maleim, you're mentioned in the uh taim twice." Oh, they thought that the uh malim was giving him respect. Yes, you mentioned it's the same words in both taleim. Psalm 14:2 and psalm 53:3. Quickly the muskim left and went to you know they went to get tale book of taleim. What? Where? Where are we mentioned? See, they were mentioned in the Torah. What did the Torah say? Is there such a thing as a musk that's seeking God? Meaning, if you're a musk, if you're a reformer, then you're not seeking Hashem. You're not seeking God. You're seeking your own personal interest, your lust, your desires, you're not seeking Hashem. So they realized that he was making fun of them. Another time as the Mali was giving a talk and he was very well known and respected and the musim constantly wanted to interrupt. Five powerful muskim walk in. Of course everybody turns around. These are powerful people. These are rich people. These are not just your average musk. And they people say, "Well, Rabbi, say something." Sure. These five muskim are like the five books of Moses. Oh, everybody's like, "Wow." Wow. Yeah. How so? They're neaked. Now the word neaked means two things like and against. So he says these five mim are against the five books of Moses. Not they are like the five books of Moses. and he was clever and witty and he could not tolerate anything false. But this war was a two-way street. And they would do everything they could to bother him, to try to make him fail to the point where you can't believe they spent so much effort. And again, I have to emphasize, these are not your average loser out there that likes to make nasty comments on the internet. We're talking about powerful people. We're disturbed by this rabbi that we call the Malim. One time the head of the Musim sends a manote on Pim to the Malim. The monot arrives uncovers it and sees he sent them the head of a pig. This sent the rabbi a head of a pig as the malim removed the head of the pig, threw it in the garbage and then put his picture back in the same and told the messenger, "Go bring that to him. Tell him it's my gift to him. The next day, the mosqu came to the rabbi. He said, "Rabbi, do you like my but I don't understand yours?" And the rabbi says, "Oh, you don't understand that you're musk, that you're clever." That's what musk means. People that are enlightened. Now, what does it mean, Rabbi? Why'd you send me your picture? So the Mabim says, "Well, you send me a picture of yourself. That's the head of the pig. So I send you a picture of me." The wittiness and genius that he had had no end. But he also had unlimited One time one of these musim heard the rabbi say in that if a Jew is so careful when it comes to kashoot that he rather choke and die than to eat non-coosher then Hashem will protect him from eating non-coosher even if the natural way of the world he would eat non-coosher. So this MK heard this I'm going to prove the rabbi wrong. How so? Now even though chickens they eat seeds, they also eat some bugs. Now why is it okay for us to eat a chicken and it's considered kosher if we slaughter it properly even though it eats non-coosher things? Because we calculated based on the majority. The majority of what the chicken eats is perfectly fine. It's not bugs. So this mosquito, what did he do? He says, "Starve three chickens and after they starve, feed them pig fat and only pig fat. That way they'll fatten up and then we'll put them in the market to make sure that the malabin buys it. And then he's gonna eat these chickens and it's not allowed. It's but he's not gonna know. So he feeds these chickens pig fat. And then he gives it to one of the merchants and he says to the merchants, "Listen, we have to make sure that the rabbi buys these three chickens." How we going to make sure? Anybody comes to you that wants to buy chickens for these chickens, tell them the price is $500. ridiculous price no one's going to pay for. Instead of $10, it's $500. But if the Malbeim or his wife come sell for $2, less than normal price and that's what happened. The Raban came to the market, get food for Shabbat. She went to get chickens. She comes to the guy. How much is a chicken? She's used to paying $10. says, "No, today $2." "Oh, $2. I'll take all three." She buys all three chickens. The plan of the mosquil is at work. She cooks one chicken for the meal on Friday night, one chicken in the chulent of Shabbat morning, and one chicken for sudashit. Each one is in a different dish. Friday night comes. They do the kush shalom, all the songs. Time comes for the food. The brings the dish and they open and they see the top of the dish is covered by cobwebs. to Malim sees he said it's not forbidden to just remove and eat to remove the cobwebs and just eat this because there's no bugs inside the food but the eye doesn't enjoy the such a thing. It's disgusting. So, we're not going to eat it. So, the first pot of non-coosher chicken, unbeknownst to the rabbi, gets put in the side. Nobody eats it. Shabbat morning after prayer time for the brings the chulent and again they open the pot and the same thing happens. cobwebs. Again, the Mim says, "We're not going to eat this, but now it's clear that we're getting a message from heaven, and therefore, we're not going to eat the third pot either. For whatever reason, Hashem doesn't want us to eat this food. All three pots are put on the side on Shabbat." The musk comes to the rabbi's house, knocks on the door. He wants to get the last laugh. Hey, Rabbi Shu, Rabbi. Yes. How do you like those chickens? Why do you ask? The rabbi says, "Well, Rabbi, did you like the pig that they eat?" Haha. Rabbi says, "Come look in my kitchen. There's three pots over there." Not a single bite of any one of them was taken. When the musk saw this, he literally almost had a heart attack. He literally saw the words of a come become fulfilled in front of his eyes. This did not make him do chuvado. But nonetheless, what the malim says that if a person is very very careful when it comes to kash will protect him. That's what happened. Now the masculim were not fools. The musculim were not poor. The musculim did not represent themselves as people that wanted to kill Jews or anything like that. In fact, the opposite. They said that they're what they're doing was for the benefit of the Jews, to protect the Jews. says that yes, there's going to be some muskim with without a keepa that are clearly against the Torah and there are going to be some with a keepa small one and become prime minister even saying they are helping the Jewish people regardless of which one it is. If the person does not have to they're not following what Torah says there is no permission to make peace with them. Now what about what the said to make peace. The sages said make peace between the community have the Quran the levie is in every sh no matter what uh what customs they follow the the farmer that's closest to the uh water he gets the water first if the uh young kid finds something you let him it's his property you can't take it from him and so what about all those things what about even the fact that an idol worshipper comes take to the food distribution don't tell him not to take it allow him to take whatever he wants to take what about all of that, all that peace. Look how much peace God wants. Says, as clear as can be. There is no permission to be lenient on Torah prohibitions for the sake of peace or due to fear. What happened in the was only in regards to customs and traditions. The peace that the sages made wasn't changing Torah laws. They just told you, "Listen, it's not going to be a violation if you do it one way or the other. If you allow the farmer that's lives closest to take the water, it's not a Torah violation. If you allow the young kid to that he owns this thing that he found, it's not a Torah violation. If you give the poor idol worshipper food, that's not a Torah viol. there's no problem with it. So, let's just make peace and make this peace in every Jewish community. They weren't changing the Torah. They were simply putting in customs in order to make sure that there's peace. So the truth is says Abasim that the reason why the reason behind this seeking shalom, the reason is the reason is the Satan who entices people to choose these messengers that are against the Torah. and allows people to believe them that they are going to be friends of the Torah. They're going to be friends to the Jewish people, that they are friends to the Jewish people in the Torah. The Satan entices people to believe them. And the Satan is behind all of it. But why do the so-called religious community fall for it? Because there are some among us says that claim to have fear of heaven but in reality their desire for being the leaders of the money pool and the so-called saviors of the community is greater than their fear of heaven. meaning they want to support these musculim these heretics these people that are not supposed to represent is why because if I support him since he's rich he's going to be give me a few shekels he's going to give me a job he's going to invest in my company he's gonna we're going to be friends so and also in my own community since I'm the one that's friends with this politician that got elected with this polit Jewish politician that's sitting on some board since I'm his contact then the people in my community are going to respect me just like the servant of a king gets the benefits that the king has meaning if the king goes to hotel he brings his servants where do the servants sleep they also sleep in the hotel. They also sleep in the hotel. One of the reasons, by the way, that in Israel, every time there's a political event of some kind where different countries come to Israel, they always go to the King David uh hotel. Now, there are plenty of beautiful hotels in Israel, nice things to see, but they always have the events and everybody stays at the King David Hotel. Why? because it's the only hotel that has bulletproof every all the windows are bulletproof. Everything is bulletproof. So that means when Donald Trump decides to go visit Israel, he goes to where there's the biggest protection in that hotel. They tried killing him twice in his own country. Needless to say, something could happen in a different country. They already you all think that, right? So, he's going to go to the place where there's bulletproof windows and so on. Now, the guys that work for him, his bodyguards, his chef, his secretary, where do they stay? Do they go to a hotel that uh uh there's no bulletproof? No, they also go to the King David Hotel. Why? The servants of the king gets the benefits of the king. So now even though there are people in our community that look like everyone else, they also wear a keepa. She also wears a kis. They also keep Shabbat. They also say before they eat something. They look like and sound like and say that they have fear of heaven. says really their desire to be the money leaders theim is bigger than their fear of heaven. This didn't just happen at the time of the Malbeim. This is also what happened 70 80 years ago with modern day Israel became a state. One of the ways that the masculim the Zionists forced religious Jewish families to steer off the path was through money. How? If you wanted food, you had to have a red card. A red card was like a coupon of some kind that you bring this red card to the market and they give you food. that you just came from Yemen, just came from Morocco, just came from Libya, just came from different parts of the world, made aliyah, you need to eat. They tell you, "Listen, you have to get a red card." Where do I get a red card? You have to go to the uh Zionist office. You go to the Zionist office. He Oh, you hungry? Yeah, me. I three kids. They need to eat. Sure. But uh you sign up your kids to school. Yes. Yes. Jewish school. Yeah. Yeah. Jewish. Jewish. Everything Jewish. Okay. They give him the card. Now, shortly after signing up the kids to school, they realize the school is against the Torah. The school's full of heresy, full of Apico. They teach you everything except Judaism. So, of course, the parent takes the kid out. No, I'm not taking SM kid to this school. Oh, you're not sending the kid to the school anymore. No, no, we're going to find a yeshiva or something. Oh, okay. All right. Can I have the red card? I need food for my family. No, no red card. What do you mean no red card? It's the only way to eat here. I need a red card. I need to feed my family. You should have thought about that before you took the kid out of the school without accepting the Zionist rule. without accepting the Zionist dictatorship, no red card, no food, and literally you had Jewish families starving as a result of this disgusting behavior of people that are supposed to be their leaders, their messengers, their representatives. s anyone that actually investigates the subject at hand realizes that it's not just the herzels of the world that were enemies of the Jewish people. It's much more than that. But this was not the only time in Russia. In Russia they had the palit pit person that was rich and person that had control and he would get people to follow whatever he said for money. You want to eat, you want to be able to do business, you want to be able to live on this land, you have to pay money to the police. And there's countless stories from those times from different about the suffering, the difficulties, but also the miracles that happened to Israel under this horrible conditions of the different stories of one over another. Interestingly, it looks like the same thing is happening today. You see, in recent years, the government of Israel has made priority number one, not Iran, not Hamas, not Hezbollah, not the Coutis. No. number one war for the Israeli government over the last several years has been the religious Jewish community. And they've done everything that you only have nightmares about everything in their power. During the Corona virus, there were countless video footages of police officers, male and female, beating up religious kids, religious adults, pregnant Jewish women, just because they're religious. Of course, they said, "No, because he wasn't wearing a mask." Yeah, but right next to the camera, right next to the cop, right next to everybody else, they're not wearing a mask. How come you're not beating them up? horrible behavior. And this has continued before October 7th, the day that many Jews were massacred by the evil terrorists. What a lot of people don't realize is that before October 7th, there was literally a near revolution where the anti-religious lefty liberal Zionist Masculim literally wanted to go to war against the Jew the religious Jewish community. They did everything in their power. There was literally nearly a civil civil war. before this war with Iran. Literally 24 hours before it, the Israeli uh news reported that the government is in essence saying that they're going to force 50,000 and to go into the army or put them in jail. Soon as they said that, the war began. Hashem sent missiles from Iran. It wasn't Iran that sent the missiles. Hashem sent the missiles. More than that, the masculim have made it a priority to make the religious Jewish community look horrible in the eyes of the people by making it seem as if they are taking advantage of the non-religious people of the government taking all the money. a complete lie, complete fabrication. But the average person is not educated about these issues and therefore believes whatever they hear in the news, whatever they hear in the media, whatever they hear in the uh the government people say making it seem as if uh the government is paying them millions of dollars to learn Torah. What are they getting? They were getting 800 shekels, which is somewhere around $250, a little less, but $220 a month as long as they study Torah for $190. 190 hours of Torah study for $200. Anyone that wants to study 190 hours a month for Torah for 200 bucks, I'm willing to also give you a dollar an hour. No problem. We can arrange it for you also. But in the eyes of the media, the eyes of the average person, how the media projected it, it was as if they were getting $8 million for two hours of Torah. They made it seem like the religious people were getting extra benefits from the country because they had kids, because they went to school. They didn't get any anything that the rest of the country doesn't get. Whether you're secular, you're religious, you get certain government benefits for having children. But they made it as if they made it seem like as if they are taking advantage of the country. They don't work. It's the stupidest thing in the world to say. Nobody in the religious community works according to them. How is that possible? Even if you use your brain, all of these religious people, where do they go every morning to a shul? Who runs a sh is a lizard running a sh? Is a mouse running the sh who's running the sh? There has to be a gabay. There has to be a rabbi. Somebody has to pay for all of this. Now, where do they send the kids of every day? The yeshiva. Now, the yeshiva has what? Just kids? No. There's teachers, there's rabbis, there's rabbitons. What? They work for free? No, they get a salary. They work. Where do they get uh food? From a supermarket like everybody else. Yeah, but do they buy like everybody else? They buy pig. They buy uh any cow. No, they buy kosher food. Who slaughters the animal? Who slaughters the animal? Is it some uh some Mustafa? No, it has to be a religious person that slaughters the animal that knows the laws. Obviously, he's not doing it for free. He works, the schools, the stores, the kashut, scribes, right? Muzasin hospital delivering babies. How could anybody think that oh nobody in the religious community works? How? Because that's what the muskim made sure to put out there in the media. make it seem as if they're all sitting doing nothing all day taking our money. The reality is all of the nonprofit organizations in Israel that bring benefit to the people whether it's Zaka you know the people that uh are going to you know different horrible things with the tragedies dead bodies and so on the uh uh hospital uh uh ambulance service the uh feeding the poor for all of the organizations in Israel, calculate all of them, 98% of them are run by religious Jews. 98% of the is by religious Jews. Now they don't collect any money from the government. They give money to the government. They raise money from donors all over the world. They use the money to help the Jewish people, help the non-Jewish people, help the uh uh religious, help the secular. They help everybody. They don't uh they're not saying, "Listen, we're not going to uh take this guy to the hospital cuz he's not religious." No such thing. We're not going to give him food cuz he's not religious. No such thing. They help everybody. There's no exception. Same thing with our organization. We have situation right now. People have lost their home. we give. Whoever lost, we can and he he comes, he signs up, we give. But in the mosqu world, in the Zionist world, no, no, they only help their own. So in reality, when a person actually looks at the math, the real math of what the Torah world, the religious Jewish world brings to Israel, to America, to anywhere in the world. It's only blessings. It's only a prophet. But the Satan will do everything possible to fool everybody into believing it's the exact opposite. And usually the Satan has messengers within the religious community that will do the job even better than him by misrepresenting things, by pretending to be religious yet always finding favor in the other side. And it's important for a person to know that this particular side of the argument to just make peace under all costs is against the Torah. Now on the other hand, there's another side. What's the other side? War under all conditions. That's also against the Torah. what these um do and their followers do is not it's not the dot of sat it's not the dot of any it's not the dot of of any Jew they're befriending the enemy the murderers the the the people that are killing Jews thinking that this is a good thing they call big, big rabbis, even some that have passed on already, they call them names because they're not of the same opinion. These people are picosim. But if this was it, I wouldn't even mention it. The other side is that there are some that simply manipulate the Torah according to their likings in order to show as if they are representing the Torah by hating other people. So today I got a message from a friend of mine from England and he sent me a video like a short two-minute video of some so-called religious Jew who uh was showing a which he apparently doesn't know how to read it because the whole thing is wrong and he points at different places in the says look over here it says we have to kill idol worship worshippers and over here we have to kill secular people. It's complete nonsense. No such thing. If you actually read what he was pointing at and hearing the words and or reading the words, it doesn't say any of that. The time of the when is ruling if there was a idol worshipper among them surely you would get the death penalty. That's the law of the but don't go out there thinking that you could just kill anybody. He was saying no you could go kill everybody. stupid. Furthermore, he says, "Oh, secular people, don't invite them for Shabbat. Kill all of them." It's also stupid. What the was referring to at the time of is if somebody was a aikos in order to anger God intentionally like these masculine like people that literally would do everything possible to uproot the Torah at the time of the yes, they would get death penalty, but he's saying, "No, today kill everybody. This is this is a murderer. This is not a this is not a regular person. But why did I mention this? Because this made me really upset because he's not the only one that makes stupid videos. There's a lot of people out there that make stupid videos. And the worst part about it is that when I told my friend about this, I told him, "What are you sending me this this video? This guy's an idiot. Why is why is he teaching? Why is he making a video of stuff like this? He's going against Hashem. And he tells me, "No, he's a bouva and he uh chuva." That makes it even worse because it shows that not only is he not really about chuva, it shows that he's also an ungrateful person. He thinks that since he start started keeping Shabbat and maybe learned a few or a few pages or something he read, he thinks he knows something. Therefore, everybody else that's left behind is beneath him. And what he doesn't realize is that he himself is not as great as what he thinks. Now, the Rambam doesn't say go kill everybody because they didn't do chuva yet. In fact, Ram says the opposite inv number six the Rambam says chuva is great for it draws a man close to the as the prophet says in the name of Hashem in chapter 14:2 to return, O Israel, to God your Lord. And the prophet Amos also says in the name of Hashem, chapter 4:6, you have not returned to me, declares God. Or Jeremiah says, "If you will return, O Israel, declares God, you will return to me." implied says the Rambam is that if you will return to Hashem in doing chuva you will cling to me meaning you'll cling to Hashem chuva brings a person that was removed from God closer to Hashem again previously before he did chuva while he was violating Shabbat while he was intermarried while he was in cash advance business. What did Hashem think of him? Did he love him anyway like people think? Says the Rambam, previously this person was hated by God, disgusting, far removed and abominable. Now he is beloved and desirable, close and dear. Similarly, we find God employs the same expression with which he separates himself from the sinners to draw close those who repent as says instead of saying you you're not my nation he will tell you you are the children of the living God. So in so many words, what the Rambam is telling us is that yes, before you did chuva, before you started keeping Shabbat, while you were intermarried, while you were cheating, lying, doing all the things that are against the Torah, you were hated by God. You were disgusting in the eyes of God. But he didn't say or even imply to kill anyone that's not keeping Torah rather he's telling us here that once they do chuva they're beloved by God. In fact, the Rambam writes to go and do kiru, to go and help is help those that are ignorant of what the Torah says. Help those that are ignorant of what is commanded by the King of Kings. Go help them. He doesn't say kill them. Only idiots say go kill people for no reason when it's against the Torah. Only idiots decide that everyone deserves some punishment even though to says no. Now of course if a person does not follow the Torah the clearly says they're hated they're going to get punished and in many cases you know forever. But while they're in this world there's a reason why Hashem has them here which is that they still have the opportunity to do chuva. So what's our job? Our job is to go and help them do chuva. Not to insult them, to hate them, to uh now if it's a person that's a musk that hates the Torah that makes fun of it, then of course it's a mitzvah to hate such a person. But the average Jew out there is not like that. The average Jew is simply ignorant. The average Jew may not follow the Torah, but they certainly respect it or at least don't disrespect it. So when you hear some so-called religious person saying, "Oh yeah, go kill everybody." You realize, "Oh, I don't want to be part of those people." And that's why it's a problem because sometimes people think that by being extreme they're doing good. And if anything, what the Rambam, what the Malbeim, what all of our dear teachers teach us is that extreme in either case is against the Torah. extreme by being lenient to the point of allowing others to step on the Torah just for the sake of peace. Making peace with the idoltors and the reformers even if they're going to continue stepping on the Torah, that's against the Torah. There's no such thing as allowing Torah prohibitions to be ignored for the sake of peace. No such thing. On the other hand, to go on the opposite extreme and say, "Listen, anyone that's not Shabbat, that's it. We we hate him. We that." No, that's not what Torah says. That's not what Torah says. The reason why the Rambam specifically has a whole section in his Mishna about chuva, about doing cha is because all of us have to do chuva in one way or another. Some have to do cha by literally starting to keep from the beginning to the end because they're not keeping anything yet. They're not keeping Shabbat. They're not keeping they're not keeping they're not keeping anything. So they have to do they have to stop all the sins. They have to start. But then there are some that are really religious where they keep Shabbat, they keep kosher, they dress modest, but they cheat in their business. They cheat their boss, their customers, the government. They're corrupt. They say they act inappropriately when it comes to Even though they wear tenua clothes, they act like they have heretical mindset and so on and so forth. Every one of us has to fix. Every one of us has to do chuva. And the Rambam says, "Oh, how great it is to do chuva, to return to Hashem, to follow his Torah. How great it is." Because before you did chuva, whether you had a beard that grows by itself and a hat that you could buy for a couple of dollars or you didn't. Before you did chuva, you were disgusting in the eyes of Hashem. You are hated. But now that you've done chuva, you're beloved. Hashem loves you. You're amazing. You're a superstar. And that is not a middle ground even though there are two extremes. One extreme says make peace under all conditions even with the enemy even while he stays an enemy. The other sides says war under all conditions. What is not a middle to is the only truth that exist. extreme on the right, extreme on the left are both lies, man-made lies in order to just simply line their pockets, their ego and their interest. What the Rambam is saying, what are saying, what the Mim is saying, what the is saying, what has been saying is that there's only one truth and that truth is available for anyone who wants to follow it. young or old, Jew or Gentile, male or female, all you have to do is simply be alive and understand that everything here is from to finalize this. I'll tell you a short story that puts a few things into perspective. Now, some of you heard it and you say, "Okay, I uh want to improve improve my data, improve the I do instead of trying to buy another car that I don't need. Instead of buying another house that I don't need, instead of saving for some retirement, who knows if I'll live to see, I'm going to invest more into the world of Torah. I'm going to invest more into helping people do cha. The Satan doesn't stop working just because you want to do good. He's going to do everything in his power and keep running around to keep you busy. There's a story it said about the who's the rashiva of the beta in Miy New York. He says that when he was young, he uh had a very difficult time finding a shid. So much so that it disturbed his Torah learning. And uh one day he went to his RV and the Rav says to him, "Of course you have trouble with the shiduk that's perfectly fine and according to the system." So why he says years ago there was a rich Jew in Vasha in Poland who had a very profitable business. When he died his son inherited the business and even though the son followed in the same procedures as the father he did not succeed in the business. In fact after a period of time the business was almost bankrupt. The son went to the Rebi and he told the Rebi, "Listen, I did everything my father did with the business. I called the customers. I gave them receipts. I provided them new goods. I did everything he did. But my father succeeded in the business while I'm about to declare bankruptcy." The Rebi listened to him and said, "Tell me, what did your father do when there were no customers in the store?" And the son quickly answered, "Ah, my father anytime there was no customer, anytime he had any spare time, he immediately open to and started learning Torah or he would retail." Uh, what about you? What do you do when the store is empty, which seems to be often now? He says, "No, I'm not like my father." I don't read. I like to read the newspaper. I talk to my neighbor a little bit. You know, people like to miserable people like to talk to other people about their misery. Ah, says the Rebi, now I have the answer. You see, when the Satan saw that your father was learning Torah, anytime there was no customer, he made sure to send them as many customers as possible because as long as he had customers, he didn't learn Torah. So that kept your father busy with the business. Less Torah, but if there's so many customers, people buy. So that made him successful. You on the other hand are not learning to run your free time and therefore the Satan is very pleased with you where he sees that as long as there's no customers in your store, you read newspapers, you talk to somebody to your neighbor. So why send you any customers? Keep them with no customers. Stop the customers from going. Why? This guy will waste more time. And then he tells Rabbi Yi, he says, "You see, when you are bothered by the fact that your shiduk was not sent to you when you want it, when you think you're ready for it, immediately it affected how you do kiru, how you learn Torah, and that made the Satan very happy. So you know what the Satan does every day? Every day he spends every effort possible to keep the right girl away from you and only send you the wrong girls, only send you the wrong results, only send you what you don't want. Because so long as you are not married and upset that you're not married, it's affecting the way you do kiru. You're not doing it. It's affecting the way you're learning. You're not learning as much. So the satan's very happy that way. So he's going to do everything possible to keep the right girl away from you. She says, "Rabbi, so what should I do?" He says, "Stop worrying about finding a shid. go and fix that Torah learning that Kiru that you're supposed to be doing. Fix that full force and a bul will send you the perfect girl. He of course listened to that accepted it with a full heart went full force into everything and within a short period of time literally the girl showed up at his doorstep and he got married and built a family. When a person takes things to their own hand according to their logic, they will always be wrong. Why? Because the natural inclination of a person is against Torah because it's only motivated by the evil inclination by the Satan. So a person thinks they're doing right by being extreme. Extreme against peace. Hate everybody. That's not going to create peace. In fact, that's just going to create more animosity. It's going to create desecration of God's name in his Torah. It's not going to do any good. Okay. Let's be peace with everybody except everyone into the Orthodox community. Even if it's two husbands. No, no, no. That's not that's not peace either. That's not allowed either. How did you come up with these uh conclusions? Extreme one or extreme the other? Oh, I thought it's a good idea. Exactly. You thought. The minute it's you thought, it's wrong. Why? Your thoughts are motivated by the Satan himself. You want to know what to do, you have to ask what the Torah says and not what you think the Torah says. What is going to tell you cuz he has to he's going to tell you exactly what right is. He's going to tell you what left is. That's why we have that's why we have our own personal rabbis. That's why we invest everything we possibly can to support the world of Torah, to support all possible ways that can help us publicize the truth, help us inform and enlighten people with what the truth is. Because the moment people compare the truth to the other choices, whether it's extreme right, extreme left, or anywhere in between, they'll see that the Torah is not a middle ground. It's not right and it's not left and it's not middle. What is it? It's the truth of God. And the truth of God has no competition. This is what I thought would be a good and very very important fundamental lesson for us to learn together because everyone takes this to heart and really applies this to their life and doesn't just think okay well this is great I'll just hope that I won't be extreme no no you have to if you merited listening to this that means that I wants you to do a a self evaluation to see what you can fix. Not what you think you're doing okay, what you can fix. And we all fix whatever we're not doing right. Thank you for learning with me. May bless each and every one of you that takes this, learns this, applies this, and especially those that will share this with everyone that they know without doing too many calculations of whether people like or dislike.
