[Music] Now how to be saved from gosh says something simple to do to be safe from go specifically how keep Shabbat. You want to be safe from go Magog you have to keep Shabbat. Meaning if you do not keep Shabbat, you should simply know Magog is for sure your end if it doesn't come before that. And says if you keep Shabbat, you'll be saved from three storms. Go Magog, the births of Mashiach and the will take place in the future. Now, is it that simple? Keep Shabbat and that's it. Keep Shabbat means you're still part of you're still part of the covenant. You're still called. So if a person is observing Shabbat, that means he's obviously not an idol worshipper. He's not a missionary. He's not a heretic that goes against Hashem, he's a f Jew. But if a person, let's say they don't drive on Shabbat, but they go publicize J Penney or they go and they're intermar or they go say that there's no reward and punishment and obviously you're cancelelling things out. It's like somebody that doesn't eat on Yum Kipur, not because he's just fasting for that day because of the diet. Page 98, he gives more. Says toil in you want to be saved, you have to toil in make it your business. Toil in make it your business. What does it mean toil and make it your business? Meaning he cannot live without doing more good to help. And the ultimate that a person can do for another Jew is to get that Jew to do get that Jew to do more. Get that Jew to get closer to Hashem. If that Jew is a Shabbat and you get him to watch a you get him to watch a video, you get him to read a book that's going to get him to keep Shabbat, your reward is endless. You'll get a bigger reward from his Shabbat than you'll get for even for your own Shabbat. So much so that says if a person knew how valuable it is to help another Jew do they would chase a Jew for 70 years just to get him to do the ink in Piskah 76 says there will not be more wars after go as it says inbal 10:9 when you go wage war in your land against an enemy who opposes you shall sound short blasts of the trumpets and you shall be recalled before Hashem your god and you shall be saved from your enemies here the Torah is telling telling us about a war and we have to sound the trumpets. Why? What's the trumpets for? The Torah commands us that the trumpets be sounded to arouse the congregation whenever the land is struck by distress. Whether it's a war, an epidemic, a drought. Why? These blasts are a call for chuva, for repentance and a reminder. The distress is a product of sin. Corona virus, bad governments, terrorism, October 7, Holocaust, financial crisis is all a product of sin. It's not bad luck. It's not bad economy. It's not bad anything. It's bad behavior against the Torah. And when we blow the trumpets, that is to tell everybody it's time to do. For people to interpret such a problem merely as coincidental is cruel, says the Ramba, because this will prevent the nation from changing its ways and cause them to continue the corrupt practices that caused the misfortune to befall them in the first place. This is the chapter one number one and two where is telling us that when this travesty happens that's mentioned in to go to war blow the trumpets you'll still have a little bit of time to do chuva chuva for your business deals that are corrupt chuva for your misbehaviors against Shabbat on you know immorality and so on a little bit little tiny tiny little window anyone that says no no this is just the way the nations are. This is just the way politics is. This is the way finances are. This is what those people are cruel with a beard or without a beard. So, how do we know this is referring to go magog though? Says the seafle. Maybe it's referring to all wars. It says break salvation and you know blow the horn. How do we know it's war? What does says the seafle? Look, it says chapter 10 verse number 9 in when you go to wage war in your land against an enemy who oppresses you, you shall sound short blast of trumpets and you shall be recalled before Hashem your God and you shall be saved from your foes is specifically written there. Because if you go out and see AmI's historical wars, you won't find even one of them where we were saved from our enemies. other than the prophecy of the future of Gummagok where the puk says Hashem will fill the world. Wait, hold on a sec. What do you mean? Save from the Greeks, save from the Romans, save from the Spaniards. Oh, no. They made you slaves. They beat you up. And then you were saved from it. But they stayed. They continued. And where did you go? You went to more problems somewhere else. Okay, so the Greeks weren't your problem anymore. Now the Romans became your problem. You had more problems after that. So even if it wasn't them, it was somebody else. This verse is not talking about salvation that's a one-time thing where then you have more problems. This is no. This means it's ultimate salvation. No more problems after this. No more wars after this. This is the salvation. That's why it's go because after go there's no more wars. And now thus says Hashem, your creator, oh Yakov, the one who fashioned you, oh Israel, fear not, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the water, I'm with you. Through rivers, they will not wash you away. When you walk through fire, you will not be singed and no flame will burn you. What is this beautiful promise of protection that Hashem is saying? The midashim says in PG 33, Hashem says that if you observe the Torah, you'll be safe from Gon and while will come like a river, they will not harm you. So don't fear my servant Jacob. Don't fear Israel. This verse, this prophecy by Isaiah is referring to the deal, the promise that says to people that make Torah and their business. Meaning it's their top priority. How do we know the prophet said it and anyone that doesn't agree with the prophets a heretic the words of the prophets are prophets are speaking in the name of hem not speaking out of their mind chapter 34 section 3 says look we see in this week's para is being shown Israel and Torah says he's showing the negative the value of why is Moshe looking in the valley of what does it see says the midashem. He's not looking at sand and trees, but rather when he's looking at a place, he sees everything that will ever happen in each and every single place. And the Torah specifically mentions that Mosheu is looking at the valley of because Mosherenu is seeing the war of Gou where all of Go Magog and their supporters will fall into the valley of put all of them in there. The holy sages wrote clearly the details about Go Magog so that we can learn from it and know what to do in order to overcome the obstacles that we've never seen or heard about. When a person looks at some of the things that are written in the prophets and then they hear contradictory statements by people, no don't worry, everything's okay. Hashem loves everyone. It's not difficult to realize that the prophet knows a lot more than whoever is saying the opposite. Couple of the examples you should look at the prophet ya in chapter 2 first verse he says blow the shafel in Zion and sound the trumpet on my holy mountain. Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day of Hashem has come, a day of darkness and thick darkness, a day of cloud and thick cloud, spreading over the mountains like a dawn, a numerous and mighty people. It's like has not been for eternity and after it there will never again be until the years of generation after generation. So how does somebody say that no go was already in the past if this exists? How does somebody say listen everybody and everybody's going to get heaven if this exists? One of two conditions. One, ignorance. They really don't know this exists. But dude, they're alive. Heretic lies. But like I said before, this is not to scare somebody to become a deer in headlights. That's doesn't move anymore. Just like the film about that discusses punishment. The film about discusses punishment. Film about discusses punishment. The film about my personal life discusses punishment. The goal of all of them is said in the films which is inspire to change. Inspire to do chuva. inspire to take advantage of this information so you make better decision with your time, with your mind, with your eyes, with your overall body, with your heart, your money, with your work, with everything. That's the point of all of it. If he wants it, he wants it. If he doesn't want, he doesn't want it. So is giving us away, telling us, look, the day of darkness is coming. Question is, what are you going to do about it? And that's what the Rambam says in Msiah will fight the wars of Hashem. But then when you go to the prophet spoke extensively about go in chapter 1 verse number 12. There will be a time that I will search you with candles and I will deal with the men who are settled on their leaves who say in their heart will not do good and will not do evil. Hashem says this whole go is not just going to war against idol worshippers, murderers, rapists. No, no, it's also going against people that are heretics with reward and punishment. It say not going to punish. He's all good. Everything is good. And then the next verse specifically says, "Their wealth will give way to plunder and their houses to desolation. They will build houses but will not dwell in them. They will plant vineyards but not drink their wine." The great day of Hashem is near and hastens greatly. The sound of the day of Hashem when the mighty warrior cries out bitterly. A day of fury is that day. A day of trouble and distress. A day of destruction and desolation. A day of darkness and blackness. A day of cloud and thick cloud. A day of trumpet and battle cries against the fortified cities and against the high towers. Here is saying it's a war of all wars against who? This is not even against God. This is against who? This is people that were heretics. They feel comfortable because they live with wealth. Maybe they even live in. So they're confident. Listen, I live in Israel. I'm protected just because I'm an Israel. The fact that I give you success, the fact that I gave you house or houses, instead of you thanking me, you turn into a heretic go, you're one of the targets. A person that is lying to themselves doesn't realize Hashem is talking to him in the Torah. Go is not our problem. Our problem is us. Goe is going to fight. The question is which side are we going to be on? The baku is pretty much telling us, listen, if you're still struggling with the fact that you think that you're a lot more than what you really are, and you still think that because Hashem gave you money, that makes you better. Because Hashem gave you good looks, that makes you better. Because Hashem made you smart, that makes you better. In so many words, even if he didn't make you, you're still arrogant. It's a problem. Why? That's enough of a reason not to survive. Those that are arrogant, he says, Hashem will punish those that are arrogant. Only the humble will survive. And the nave says, "Blow the sha." Why blow the chuff? Says the to warn the nation to do chuva before it's too late. Too late. What? Go. Getting to a stage of no return. The prophet Amos in chapter 3 verse number six says, "Could it be that a chauffar is blown in a city and the people would not tremble?" Unfortunately, we're in a generation where chauffar blows and many people don't tremble. So, Hashem brought other. It's called the alarm of the missiles and the rockets and anti-semitism and horrible things that are happening. Sometimes Hashem has to use a different sha prophet yel chapter 3 verse number five. And it will be that anyone who calls in the name of hashem will escape for on the mountain of Zion and inim there will be refuge as he said and among the survivors who hashem summons. Meaning that Hashem is in essence telling us I put these verses in there in order to give you instructions. If you are crying out to Hashem, praying to Hashem, and doing everything you're supposed to be doing with full effort, the only thing you should be concerned about is that you're not lying to yourself, that you're really doing in full effort, when in reality, you're not. Otherwise, don't watch the news. Don't be concerned about the news. Just keep doing it. Be focused. Make in your business. In chapter three, says the reason why did the people go against why do the people become heretics? Why do people go against Hashem if they're part of amad even if sometimes they believe they're f or they're not f they're not even religious but they believe that they're close to hashem why says wo to the filthy and the polluted one here he's talking about the city of oppression it did not listen to the voice of the prophets it did not accept mus chastisement it did not trust hashem it did not draw near to its god see it's telling us in so many words didn't listen to That's didn't listen to M and therefore I did not have when you have those that means you're not close to Hashem you're the only close toem is in your imagination and the 800 years ago writes on this verse this verse is regarding the people who remain after the war of go after Hashem is finished with all this accounting everyone will speak the holy language of Hebrew and all will call out in the name of Hashem as it says says in verse number nine, "For then I will change the nations to speak a purer language so that they will all proclaim my name, the name of Hashem, to worship him with unified resolve.
