We are back here on our Sunday night, but uh tonight we're going to make a special sh to uh speak about the plagues, not only the ones that happened in the past, but also the ones that are coming very, very soon as we are in the era of Msiah. Tonight's show is going to be for the Sana Talia Rael and all of Amra and all the righteous noises that continue to support the organization continue to help us publicize name and continue to help us do these. So Karim for anyone who has not already donated to the Kim Piska uh please go to bhp pesak.org or even if it's not for donating, just simply watch the video that we put up there for uh one of the uh food distributions we did uh just uh last week on uh in inimata several other places and we're not finished yet, but over 600 families, we're talking about probably close to 6,000 people, maybe a little bit more or less, uh have uh received food from Bez. from our organization for Pesak. Each box is packed full of stuff that they need. Whether it's matsot or it's wine or it's meat, chicken, eggs, all types of goodies. All of it is in the video. But we have another big distribution coming up in just about I would say 12 hours from now in another big distribution. And uh simply put, they keep coming. More and more people need food, need help for the holidays. And uh we're trying to help as many people as we possibly can. Uh we've pretty much written a blank check for uh to help as many as we possibly can. We a whole lot more than what we've raised so far, but will provide. If you want to be a partner with us in this amazing food distribution for the holidays, uh please donate at bhpes.org. bhp pesac.org. Uh, and I'm sure the link is going to be on the bottom or on the screen or somewhere when you're watching this if you're not watching it live, but if you're watching it live, it'll probably be somewhere in the comments. So, with that being said, we have Pesak and Pesak is the extraordinary holiday of the salvation that AmI is received, the first salvation that we got a little over 3,300 years ago in Egypt. And of course, everyone is familiar, both Jews, non-Jews, religious, non-religious, even atheists have heard about the 10 plagues, whether it's uh the water turning to blood, the frogs, the uh the lice uh you know, the uh that were filling up all the houses, the the livestock being killed, all the uh the you know, pretty much the boils uh that people got. In so many words, hell on earth. And uh if people simply understood what that meant, certainly that would influence their actions if they believe that this is something that's relevant today. But the truth is that our sages tell us that we have to study this topic again and again each year. Now, why do you have to study the 10 plagues each year if you already know them supposedly? The truth is, as the Torah tells us in the delve into it and delve into it because everything is in it. But by everything is in it, it's not just referring to all the details that we don't know, but rather all of the details that we should know because they're coming soon. So unlike what the internet came out with a simple checklist of all the things that people believe are the plagues, the water turning to blood in the Nile River. The truth is it wasn't really just a Nile River. It was everywhere, including the trees, the fruits, anything and everything that had water, which again we're going to go into. Frog swammed the land, the gnats or lice. Apparently the internet is not sure whether nats or lice are the ones that infested people and animals. Flies filled the houses apparently why flies. Not really sure, but that's apparently what the internet thinks happened. Livestock. Disease killed Egyptian animals. Boils afflicted humans and animals. Hail struck down crops and livestock. Locust devoured the remaining crops. Darkness covered the land for three days. Death of the firstborn of Egypt. In so many words, this is an simple internet search in the English language of what the 10 plagues are. And as we read this, and in fact, as we show you, you'll see how much we don't know if we simply rely on the internet. Our own very dear Rabbi Fry Kaklon Hashemesh wrote another sephil for this holiday and it was published and printed in Israel uh and distributed for free like the best price we always give all of the books and it's not a little pamphlet of 10 pages uh that cost a quarter but rather a 300page book that uh is full of kadusha full of insight ites that uh is going to give you a little bit of a different perspective on the plagues. Now, of course, we're not going to be able to go through the entire book. That will take a very long time, but we're going to go into a few key issues that will give us not only more details about the plagues that most people didn't know, but in fact, how it's relevant to today as we live in the era of Messiah. In the beginning of the book writes in the language of the sages of so he says go and learn what the midrash this particular mid is called the uh treasures of Eisenstein. uh and uh what it wrote about one of the reasons why we need to learn these plagues. Know that all of the plagues that brought upon the Egyptians, this is exactly what he will bring upon Adam when Am will be taken out of the exile at the time of Mashiach. Meaning that one of the reasons why we learn the plagues is not just to know the past, but also to know the future, what's coming. And it's important to know what's coming because when you see it, you'll know exactly what it is. Now, before we go into how this is relevant to every single person out there, not just the Jewish people, but also the non-Jews, especially those non-Jews and Jews that choose to go against the Torah because they will not be part of the salvation, at least not on the good side, whether it's the newly anti-semitic Tucker Carlson's and is other fellows that continue to in so many words manipulate every single bit of truth they possibly can uh get their hands on into some strange narrative that they have some strange story they make up just to push their agenda of anti-semitism and of course before Mashiach comes anti-semitism will be higher than it's ever been in history, even more than what it was before the Holocaust. So, we're not surprised when we see this. In fact, one of the times that I brought something to Rab Fry that they, you know, were trying to do something big and it looked like things were going smoothly. He said, "Okay, fine." And then later on, just a few days later, I told him, "Ah, I found something. Doesn't look like it's going to go so smoothly. Still possible, but it's a whole lot harder than what we thought initially. The deal is completely different than what was originally presented. Now, instead of hearing the typical, oh, what they do, what's this, what's that, a frame says to me, ah, hashem, you comforted me. You comforted me." when it was going so smoothly, I was thinking, what's wrong? What are we doing so wrong? We're not opening a church right now. We're not we're not uh doing uh you know, anything against Hashem. So, why is it going so smoothly? Why is it going so smoothly? But then when you told me, oh, something is uh we have uh some hiccups. We have some issues. Ah, comforted me. Why? Because if there are struggles along the way, it's an indication you're going in the right direction. So in this seaf frame does several different things. One, he tells us a ton of details about the plagues that are beyond what the internet and the superficial things that we usually learn as kids are taught, you know. when uh there's a lot more. Number two, he goes into details about one of the important things to know about a and how he runs this world. measure for measure. Everything that's happened happened for a specific reason. Whether it's to the nation, to the world, to individuals, to you and I in the past, and certainly in the future. This is one of the fundamental teachings of the Torah because if a person starts thinking that everything is randomness, this guy got into a car accident randomly because the other guy was a bad driver. This one got sick randomly because uh he caught the uh you know, smallox or something. this guy, you know, went to a country that just started war randomly because he had bad luck. When you start believing in randomness, then you start forgetting that a kadosh runs the world. Even great ma mathematicians that go into the way that the world was created. If you look at the measurements of the earth in comparison to the moon, in comparison to everything that's around it, and even in comparison to the pyramids, you will find that everything is perfectly put together. Nothing is random. Nothing is random. I actually just saw a video that one of my students sent me of a guy that claims he was a former atheist for many years. But he started delving into the mathematics. He first started with being interested in the pyramids as it is a very interesting subject altogether. just you know would say uh what's in the pyramids the size of the pyramids I mean it's one of the seven wonders of the world and there's even uh questions about whether a Jew is allowed to go there or not and if he is allowed for how long under what condition who built the pyramids of course there's all types of speculation out there that people like to put whether it's uh you know the the fools that think aliens built the pyramids or that uh you know it was uh some you know the Egyptians all types of things that are out there. Certainly we believe uh that Am built the pyramids but nonetheless the pyramids are not like any other structure that's out there. It's not like the huge building in Dubai. It's not like the uh twin towers before they were destroyed. It's not like the Eiffel Tower. It's not like anything else out there because the the way that the pyramids were built was with knowledge about the world where the stars are the universe. There's a lot of interesting things that uh were put into the building of the pyramids. Now one of the things that uh a person will see the more they delve into the mathematics of things is that everything is perfectly put there together that could not be random. And the same concept goes with the plagues. Hashem did not just decide that blood will be the way that he will torment the Egyptians and then frogs sounds like fun and then perhaps we'll make it really dark for them at some point so they can't see. Everything is measure for measure. But more than that, this is also going to be the same tools that a kadosh promises that he will use at the time of Msiah. Now in a beginning we look at the plagues as if they are something that is just very simple. When we look at the plague of blood, one of the things we see that akadosh punished the Egyptians specifically for what they did. And what they did initially, we would think, oh yeah, well, he was destroying I remember learning this as a kid that uh he was uh destroying the uh Nile River. Now, if this was true, if this was just simply a war against the Nile River, then the blood would have literally been like the internet says, it would have blood of only only been on the Nile River. But the reality is the blood plague was everywhere. The blood plague was the first sign that everything that a kadu did was measure for measure. Meaning based on the sin that the Egyptians made, the act they did, that's how they got punished. So first the sages teach us that each plague was not only beyond what the internet is telling us but also each plague was tattooed if you will on the Egyptians as it was happening with the use of modern technology. This is what it would look like if you will. Egyptian, probably much uglier in real life, would have a plague written on him. And the same goes, as you'll see from the other uh pictures, with the other plagues. Each plague was written on them. Of course, you see that there is an outcome to this plague, killing all the fish. And you would ask, of course, if you are one of these uh animal lovers, what did the fish do? Why kill the fish? Why kill anybody? Why blood? In page 15, Ra Fry writes, this actually this section was written by his father Rav that just like the Egyptians did not allow the daughters of Israel to dip into the waters in order to remove impurity because the Egyptians ultimate goal with everything they did to the Jewish people to Am Isel before they were known as the Jewish people because that began at Mount Si was what parro said which is he was concerned about the fact that Israel was growing in number each time a woman gave birth it was to six children average woman let's see if she gives birth five times that's 30 kids that means means that AmI is growing rapidly to say the least and the number one mission that wanted to do was to stop it. Now you would ask why he just killed him. Why don't he just kill whoever he wanted? Because the Torah says was clever and he knew that if he started killing people left and right, there would revolt. there would be a war. Perhaps the Egyptians would even lose. So he said, "Let's fool them." How we fool them? First, we'll start off by telling them, "Everyone has to be patriotic to build Egypt." And Perau went into the field himself and started digging and working. And people saw that, hey, Pero is working. if he's working. This must be important. He's a king. He's not supposed to be working. They shut down their businesses. And they started working, too. And Paul said, "Listen, I'll pay you. I'll pay you double what you make." And of course, this gave them even a bigger incentive. Not only are they going to be patriotic, but they could stay patriotic because they'll make double the money, become even more rich. This also answers those research reports that say that they don't believe that the Jewish people built the pyramids because they found some uh documents papus they call it that show that people got paid for building parts of the pyramid. This is the reason why it says it initially they did. Initially we got paid but then as time went by said I can't pay you 2,000 I can pay you a thousand. People say well I was getting paid double what I was making. Now I'm getting paid what I was making anyway. So fine that's fine. They continued and then before you know it he cut that in half too to 500 then 250 and eventually to zero after he saw how much everybody could really produce. And he said, "From now on, you're all going to do this. You're all slaves." But this was a process. This was not an overnight thing. But ultimately, the goal was to fool into becoming slaves into a way that he could have population control. He couldn't just kill people off. Even when he started killing the children, if you guys remember in Exodus, he tells Yuv and Miriam to do it without anyone seeing. If it's a boy, kill him. If it's a girl, don't do anything. But only when it's an oppressive giving birth, which is it's a known thing that especially in those days that unfortunately sometimes a woman gives birth and the baby dies. So it wouldn't look like is behind it. Everything had to be behind the scenes. Why? Because there was a lot of them. You can't just decide to kill all of them. By the way, the same concept was repeated by Hitler. Initially, they were saying, listen, anyone that wants to leave Germany, leave. Unfortunately, many people chose not to leave. They like their houses. They like Germany. They felt that Germany was their Jerusalem. They chose not to leave. Eventually, they told him, "Okay, get on these trains." But they didn't tell him, "You're going on these trains to go to a concentration camp to die." No, they told him, "Listen, you're just going to go to a different section, to a different section, and you're going to live there in peace." And even when they got there, initially it was, "Oh, you're going to work. You're going to have a place to stay." But little by little things changed and before you know it it became a standard. Hitler followed the playbook of as we've said in many lectures in the past and we gave many other details. So to avoid repeating the same things, we'll try to focus on some new stuff. Akadosh chose the plague of blood because the Egyptians did not allow did not allow the Jewish women to purify themselves. because they noticed he noticed that any time they would purify themselves even though it wasn't a Torah obligation yet the sons of Yakov is already following the Torah even before we received it. So this was one of the parts that would follow already in Torah. They would purify themselves when the woman has our time of the month. When Pon noticed this, he said we can't allow them to purify themselves. We can't allow them to go into the mikvah. And because of that punished them, punished them that just like you did not allow Israel, the daughters of Israel to purify the themselves from the blood of Nida so they could fulfill. Therefore, that mo that water that you didn't allow them to dip into will turn into blood because you didn't let them purify themselves in blood, you'll end up drinking blood. And why did the fish die? Because just like you did not let let them fulfill the pool to bring more children to the world, you're also going to lose the fish which are the one creature that continues to reproduce and the world's survival depends on it. Now the blood plague as I've shown you was not just for this one area but rather you'll see that it's was something that was all over Egypt in every part of it. People had to get used to it. to such a point that even if the Egyptian wanted to drink water from the same cup as a Ben is a kadosh who would miraculously make the water that the Jew drinks water and the water turned to blood while the Egyptians drinking it. sort of like this. The reason why I say sort of like this is is because again this is a digital image we make today based on the midlashim. It's not an actual real picture even though it looks realistic. Promise you there was no cameras back then. Well maybe. So more than that, anything and everything that had any connection to water whatsoever, the fruits, the trees, the walls, everything that had any bit of water in it had blood. So that's why you'll see, for example, if you look closer in the picture, which is probably not possible right now, but maybe when we put it on the on YouTube later on, or you'll see that there's blood on the walls. Why? Because when you make the uh the walls, you make the rock and everything, you need to use water. Everything that had any water in it, blood was falling off. Meaning it was a horrific sight. It was a horrific situation unlike the world has ever seen before or after. Now what about the future orphan brings seph and seph the prophet tells us an insight of what the future will look like. that the first plague that a kadoshb will bring during the culmination of the era of Msiah during the war during where chaos of today will seem like kindergarten in comparison to what's coming. The prophet yel says the prophet says in the name of hem that oh make miracles and wonders in the heavens and the earth blood fire smoke. This is chapter 3 verse number three. And the sun will turn to darkness and the moon will turn to blood before the big and amaz and awesome day of Hashem. This is also in Yel chapter 4 verse1 15. So one of the ways not the only way. One of the ways that Bahu will bring this plague according to the prophets before Mashiach comes is in the very famous well-known prophecy of a blood moon. But certainly it's not going to end there. Just like the plague didn't end with just making the Nile River into blood, it was a whole lot more than that. We know that the plagues that are going to be at the time of Messiah will be much more extensive than what happened in Egypt. In fact, one of the things that the prophet says is that in Egypt, the plague of darkness was three days and three days. Meaning three days where it was darkness and then three days where it was such darkness that people could not move meaning it was something physical. The prophet says that the first period of darkness will be 15 days. That first three will be 15 meaning times five at the time of Msiah. So I would not be surprised if every plague is also times five. Meaning the blood moon is not like the blood moon that we see every so often where the moon is red because of how the stars are aligned. And we're talking about something much more significant. Much more significant. Further we see the Oh, actually let me show you these other pictures which are very cool. Another image of the Egyptians trying to drink while are able to drink the same exact liquid. Only for them it's coming out as water while the Egyptians are there's nothing that they can do about the fact that they're drinking blood and the fish are making everything smell disgusting. That's why you're seeing this guy cover his face. That's one of the things that the midlash talks about how how Hashem not only punished the Egyptians with tormenting them but also with complete and utter shame, utter disgust. As you see, there's blood all over the walls. This is not blood of uh some murder scene. This is a blood that of the plague itself. Another illustration of the similar uh idea of the uh am drinking water, the Egyptians drinking blood even if it's from the same cup, even if it's using straws. Further, the also talk about how there were all types of horrible things that you'll that you see here that will carry on to the next plagues. Meaning, even though the bulk of the plague left after about a week, it continued carrying itself over to the other plagues. and all of the plagues did that. Then he says brought the next plague which was the frogs. Of course, the frogs is something that we think is a uh annoying perhaps something disturbing, something that uh maybe makes some people uncomfortable. First off, it wasn't just frogs. Asim say that it was a combination of frogs and alligators. Huge giant alligators, man-eating alligators. Worse than any movie you've ever seen. This is like all of the Florida alligators coming on land and deciding that they're hungry for people. This is what happened in Egypt. And just like the blood plague, the frogs were also tattooed on the hands or engraved onto the hands or bodies of the Egyptians. meaning everyone knew it's this is the finger of God here. God's doing this. This is not a magic trick from from Moshe Rabenu like the necromancers are trying to convince us. Now, one of the things that the Torah tells us is that it started off with a meaning one frog. How could one frog do all this damage? Simple. who has no limitation. So therefore, he brought one frog and this frog started spitting out millions and millions and millions and billions of frogs to no end. And every time the Egyptians would hit it, even more would come out. similar to this where you see a giant frog literally vomiting an endless supply of frogs with no one to stop it. In fact, it got to the point where the frogs were everywhere, just like the Torah promises they will be, including inside the Egyptians. How so? any bit of liquid that the Egyptians would drink would turn into a frog. Meaning that it didn't have to enter its mouth as a frog in order to arrive at its stomach and go through the stomach acids. Meaning that the frogs would be born inside their bodies. And every one of these frogs would sing praises to Hashem. And this was the most horrific part of the plague for the Egyptians. Why? Because they hated it. Especially par claimed that he was God. So to have frogs screaming to him constantly to him and to all of his people from inside his body, from outside his body, from on top of his head, from everywhere he can possibly see that Hashem is God. He's the only God. That was a unique punishment. Why did this happen? because they used to make do all types of embarrassing type of work, all types of shameful work. And they would actually tell them to go bring them all types of bugs and frogs and all types of disgusting things so they could play with them or give it to their kids or just simply watch the Jewish people tormented while they're trying to chase after a frog. and B were disgusted by this, but they could do nothing about it because if you didn't bring the frog, if you didn't bring the bug, you didn't bring the rat, you didn't bring whatever the Egyptian said you had to bring. You would lose your life. You'd lose a part of your body, you'd lose a lot. And because they put them to jobs that were disgusting, that would make them filthy, that would make them smell bad, did measure for measure to the Egyptians what they did to Benadosh brought upon them and just like they would make Ben Isel serve them with cups of water and wine and so Now each time the Egyptian served even himself water or wine that liquid will turn into frogs once it enters his body. In page number five, Rab Fry brings the prophecy by the prophet Yesha in chapter 66 verse 6 where he says that the frogs had a very very loud. Anyone that's familiar with having a frog, sometimes if the frog decides to uh show you how loud it is, literally you have no idea where the thing is, but you could hear them no matter where you go on your property. It's obnoxiously loud. Imagine millions of them. And this is actually what the prophet says in the name of Hashem that Hashem is going to do. to a dome during the times of Mashiach. And he says as follows, translation The sound of tumult comes from the city. A sound from the sanctuary. The sound of Hashem dealing retribution to his enemies. This was a prophecy of one of the punishments that a bahu will give to his enemies when the time of Mashiah comes. Why? Measure for measure. The Egyptians did certain things to torment Am. They got it. And certainly over the generations, over the last few thousand years, especially the last couple of thousand years been we've been in the exile. Those evil acts were repeated many times against am by their different enemies. Whether it be the Spanish Inquisition, the pilgrims, the Holocaust, all of the horrible things that AmI is gone through over the last couple thousand years. Before Mashiah comes, Hashem will close all accounts. Meaning everything that was done to Am is will be paid back to those that did it to such an extent that all of the great leaders, the Yosh, all of those great leaders that people followed their lead in order to torment, kill, destroy the or try to destroy the Jewish people. All of those souls will be reincarnated into the last generation in order for the retribution to take place here. Now, even though there's much more punishment they're getting after Hashem destroys them here in an eternal gay and so on, but since they did the crime here, Hashem will bring them back here and start the tormenting here. After that, we know about the plague of Kim. Lice. When you hear about lice, lice sounds like something that perhaps my generation dealt with when we were little kids. If you go to kindergarten, one kid has lice. Before you know it, five kids have lice. And the parents have to take this special brush and go through their hair. Today it is some parents still using the same tactics to remove lice from their kids and some parents using all types of powders and different things that they use. But it's certainly times have changed. But those lice that we dealt with as kids are nothing like the lice that the Egyptians had to deal with. The lice that the Egyptians had to deal with were something that according to the scientific world would be an impossibility because the lice that we know of today is tiny little thing and if it's huge it's would let's say we look like almost like a tiny a little bug but some of the lice that the Egyptians had to deal with were literally size of mice and even rats. They were huge, enormous, disgusting creatures that tormented and killed many of the Egyptians. And if you'll notice from the other pictures that I'll show you later, you'll see these things again and again. And the reason why it's not an error, but rather because the sages tell us that these lice kept coming back even after the plague was over. Why did they get lice? Because the Egyptians forced Am to go work outside and clean the dust off the floor to such an extent that it literally looked like everything was dustless. meaning above and beyond hard work. They would make them remove every bit of dust from the floor from the streets, tormenting them, punishing them, beating them. And says, "You want my children to clean the dust? I will turn the dust into lice. And just like the other plagues, the sages tell us that the plague itself, the name of the plague was engraved on each one of the Egyptians as it was happening. And these lights over here were considered the small ones in comparison to the other ones that they had over there as well. But I would say out of all the pictures we have, the most horrific one that really gives you the right perspective of what the plague, at least the closest perspective to what the plague really was, is this picture. If you're sensitive, this is probably not going to be a good picture for you. But nonetheless, one of the things that we read at the beginning of the That's quoted from the Torah that commands us to teach our children how he tormented and abused the Egyptians. He shamed them, I should say, instead of abused. He brought shame to them because their whole goal was to bring shame to the Jewish people. So this plague was what they had to live through and many did not live through it. It was literally like the person is saying right now is gay gum on earth. Now you'd ask yourself how did they live through this? I mean at the end when Amish is left and went to Yamsuf, the Egyptians went after them. There were millions and millions of Egyptians. They were on the chariots ready to kill the Jews. Where do they come from? It was the same Egyptians. How so? Just like a kadosh who created the punishment of the plagues, he also created a special strength that he gave the Egyptians to endure the punishment in order to suffer more, in order to be shamed more. And the sages tell us that the ultimate agony that the Egyptians had from these lice was that it would make them make them feel like they were on fire. They were being burned. Second. So the prophet Isaiah in chapter 34 verse number 9 tells us why this is relevant to what's coming. And he says its rivers will turn to tar and its soil to sulfur. Its land will become burning tar. Here the sages explain that Isaiah is telling us before Msiah comes or as he comes during this whole time where there's the big war a kadu will bring the plague of the kim not just lice itself but the agony of fire that the lice brought upon on the Egyptians. He bring this upon Adom just like the Kim will burning the Egyptians. The same will happen the time of Mashiach to Adon where Hashem will bring fire and sulfur after This brought this is where brought all types of wild animals, beasts, predators to make themselves satiated over the Egyptians. which again were given superhuman strength to endure the suffering. This is just like what gives the wicked people in gum in all these horrible places where are designated to punish the wicked people where the says that you know person that showed showed what he endures every day as a punishment for what he did when he was when he was alive. He was being burned every day then brought back to life. How is this happening that decides who lives, who dies, what the rules are, what the rules aren't. He obviously has no rules. He makes the rules. So he gives those that are wicked not just the suffering but actually a strength a power to suffer. And the same concept applies here to the Egyptians that you see from the was again engraved on them in a similar fashion to this as they're running away from wolves. lions and all types of horrific creatures. And as I said before, the other horrible creatures, the lice, the blood also came back. Meaning it wasn't just the it was also the other plagues. Each plague magnified the next, joined the next. So it was not just a few animals walking around, see who we could eat. It was literally hell on earth getting worse and worse. See these huge lice must size of mice or even rats. Unless you're talking about New York, which are especially big, but I'm sure some of them were that big, too. Now, one of the things that the Torah tells us is that it wasn't limited to just a few creatures. It was all of the predatory creatures that exist. And if you see in this image, some interesting things. Number one, you'll see that each each animal is coming with its own climate. Meaning the polar bear appeared in Egypt with the climate that the polar bear is used to. And so did the lion and so did the tiger. So did the rhinoceros. All of these creatures. And if you notice, there's also this arm over here. This was a creature of the ocean. Some say it was a selena, which is a Selena was a uh which is a mermaid. Some say it was a uh uh sort of a um uh an octop like octopus would go into was a huge creature would go into the houses and grab the Egyptian kids. to Hashem. There is no kids. Everyone is a soul that's already thousands of years old. To us, we see kids as kids as children. But in reality, that created all of it. He knows exactly when every soul came here, how many times it's been here, what it's done, what it deserves, what good it deserves, what bad it deserves. So here you'll see that each one of these creatures whether it's the alligators or it's the tiger, the lion, you know, all the different creatures, they come with their climate. And further you'll see that the locusts which were a plague of its own also came before the plague itself. Why did bring this plague of because one of the things that the Egyptians like to do is sport with wild animals. What is that like the coliseum? They would have Jewish people Fight against the lions. Fight against the tigers. Fight against the snakes for entertainment. Where do they get these lions, tigers, snakes, and all of these wild beasts? They send the Jews to go find them. They would tell Am, "Go get us a tiger. We heard there's a tiger over here. Go get us." And they would watch this as they're trying to hunt it, getting maimed as a result of it. And just like the Egyptians enjoyed tormenting the B with animals brought animals to torment the Egyptians back measure for measure. measure for measure. And these animals didn't have to go to sleep or rest or any place that they couldn't enter. Everywhere they went, they would find animals. Everywhere the Egyptians went, they would find animals. There was pretty much no way to hide. How do they live through all this? Again, Hashem gave them the power to suffer. Now the prophet Isaiah in chapter 34 verse says something very interesting is one of the things that will happen at the time of the salvation is that he says owls and bitterness will occupy it. Great owls and ravens will dwell in it. And he, meaning Hashem, will draw against it a line of emptiness and plum bobs of void. Their nobleman will call out. There's no dominion except us. But all its leaders will become nothingness. So this is a prophecy of what a kadosh is talking about will happen to the enemies of am. Interestingly in page 120 to 124 of the book brings that these animals that the prophet is saying will will come to a dome as a punishment. It's 12 animals. And interestingly enough, after doing some research confirmed that these are the animals that actually live. These 12 animals are they don't seem overly vicious. They don't seem overly dangerous. An owl, okay, a bitter. I mean, these are, you know, predatory birds, but they're not exactly uh scary. But he says these are the animals that actually live in a in the nations of says 12 types of uh birds predatory birds brought upon the Egyptians. And the same is what he's going to bring against against Adam. And he brings the verse that I just mentioned. But this is not the only animals. This is apparently specific group of animals that will be brought in addition to the other predatory animals like the tigers and the lions and so on and so forth. But apparently these 12 specific animals are mentioned by name because to show us how knows his creation. And these are the animals that live in the nations of Adam in the land of Adam. Now why did bring this plague? As we said, it's because of measure for measure. Next is the plague of devil. brought devil which is pestilence and the same will happen. These are some of the things that it looked like. Again, the plague is written on top of the Egyptians to show them that this is the hand of God doing it. The animals are dying everywhere, which is their possessions, their gods, their idols. And it's all dying in front of their eyes with nothing to do about it. If the lice and the other uh plagues did not kill them, this is Why saw that the Egyptians would send the B is to far away places from their houses to be shepherds. s not because they needed them to be shepherds in those specific areas, but rather to keep them away from their wives. So they would keep them with donkeys and horses and camels and they would send them to all types of swamp land and all types of places that are far away from where they would actually live. in order to keep them away from their wives, in order for them not to have more children. And therefore, says, "You wanted to make my children into shepherds just because you wanted to keep them away from their wives. I'm going to send you a shepherd, a very good shepherd." The name of the shepherd is de which is the pestilence killing of all the animals measure for measure. And this too the prophet in chapter 38 verse says will happen at the time of Mashiach. And he says, "I will punish him with pestilence and with blood. Torrential rain and hailstones. Fire and sulfur will I rain down upon him and upon his cohorts and upon the many people who are with him. I'll 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 hem. So here himself tells us to the prophet that this destruction, this horrific punishment that will come upon his enemies that tormented his children. Whether it's the little annoying lices like the Tucker Carlson's and other media talking heads or it's the bigger leaders that are trying to destroy it in war like Iran and Yemen and all these other places whichever one it is he's saying those and their friends and whoever supports them meaning it's not just the Iran it's not just the big leaders that are trying to destroy. No, no, it's also their friends. It's also whoever agrees with them. Even if you're not in the media, you don't have a YouTube channel even, but you agree with hatred of the Jewish people, you're part of the you're part of that equation. One of the things you'll notice about people that hate the Jewish people, that speak against the Jewish people, not just Zionism political issues. I'm talking about people that are anti-semitic. You'll notice that they always have a problem that's similar to what Pero's problem was, which is the fact that Jewish people have many kids. What do you care if they have many kids? this yo-yo that has a nearly 10 million people following him on YouTube because apparently they also want to waste their lives. He went to Jewish communities in Muny, in Lakewood, and couldn't handle the fact that the religious Jewish people that live there have 6, 8, 10, 12 kids. Well, how do they pay? How do they this? How do they that? How do they do? Where's the money come from? What do you care that they have a lot of kids? He's going to say, "Whoa, taxes. They're taking our taxes." First of all, for any of those idiots that think that the religious Jewish people are the only people that benefit from what the government gives, whether it be in Israel or it be in America or anywhere else, you should know that in America alone, over 30% of the population, meaning over a 100 million people in America, certainly not just Jews, because total population of Jews in America is 6 million. And they certainly not most of them are not religious. Maybe 10% of them are religious. So out of all the population in America, over 100 million people are taking advantage of the government benefits. Now, if you're so concerned about what you contribute to from your taxes, let's say you, Mr. YouTuber, let's say you make, I don't know, let's say you make a um $5 million a year. And out of that $5 million, a portion of it goes to contribute to uh all of the poor people benefiting from the government. And out of all of those people that contribute, you're one of them. And out of those people, some of them are Jews. So, I would like to do this on behalf of all of the Jewish people that live in America, even the ones that don't benefit from your taxes. I am paying you back personally. I'm giving this money to the government and in essence to you whenever you want me to send it to you or to pick it up. All of the money you've contributed that actually was designated to Jewish people. Here you go. a whole tenot which is in uh American money about three and a half cents. That's it. That's all it is. That's it. If you do the math, you do the math. Over a 100 million people are in welfare or government benefits. out of those 100 million people you have let's say I don't know however many thousands of Jews or out of those millions of people it's certain I mean again out of all the Jews that live in America maybe 600,000 are religious and certainly they're not all benefiting from the government and and welfare many of them are successful working and so on but let's just say half of them 300,000 are benefiting. So you do 300,000 out of a hundred million. Here you go, buddy. If you make $5 million in income in your taxes, this is probably what you've paid in your whole life to the Jewish community, and I'm paying it back to you whenever you would like to pick it up. I can give you my address, or I could just simply send it to you because you seem kind of obnoxious, so I don't really want to see you face to face. So, I'm paying you on behalf of the Jewish people. Here you go. Tagot. If you'd like, I can give it to you in US uh currency. I have that, too. And um thank you. All of these people that make a big deal out of oh, YOU'RE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF OUR TAXES. Whether they're people that live in Israel or they live in America, they never actually did the math of how much they actually contribute to society themselves. They make a big deal because they make a h 100,000 or 500,000 or a million or 2 million and they think because they paid uh you know a big amount of money for them relative to them in taxes they feel like some family took all of it. You have to understand if you do the math literally the contribution of even the most successful friend you have is practically meaningless when you actually apply it to any community whether it's the black community, Spanish community, Jewish community, uh whatever community you want to apply it to, it's nothing. But people make a big deal out of it. Oh, it's my taxes. Listen, I made a million half dollars in one day when I was working on Wall Street. I know what it is to pay taxes. I know what it is to pay taxes. Khabibi, you have no idea how little your taxes actually do for society because you're living in a country that has an enormous GDP and an enormous population. Also, your little few million dollars don't mean much in the grand scheme of things. It's only a lot of money to you. So, back to the plagues, which of course that person and anybody else that follows that mentality will also need to know what's going to happen to them in the future very soon. Unless they do chuva, which again, while you're alive, you can still do chuva. The plague of devil was horrible because this is one of those things where a person that thought they were physically fit, a person that thought that they were prepared realized all of that meant nothing. Made things even worse. Akadosh brought on the Egyptians because each time they wanted to bathe, they would want the Jewish people, they would want Ben is to prepare the water for them, to warm the water for them, to test the water for them. And this was a very very difficult thing to do because they would have to endure all of the agony of boiling water just to see that it's too hot or freezing water just to see that it's too cold. not with their finger, but literally suffer the agony of all of it. Because that would be one of the things that gave the Egyptians pleasure to see the Jews suffering. And after they would enjoy watching suffer preparing their water for them, they decided the water is perfect and then they would bathe and then they would go and enjoy themselves with their families with because of that sick type of joy that they had gave them the which is the boils that are particularly painful if you put water on them. So they could no longer be able to go into water themselves. Measure for measure whether it was hot water or cold water. Any water that would touch the Egyptian while he had the would increase the suffering exponentially. And like all the other plagues, Hashem made sure to engrave these plagues names on their bodies for the time that it was there. If it wasn't hell on earth before, then hell has arrived then. And in fact, one of the things you'll notice with the is that as the midrash says, it went on everything, not just the bodies of the Egyptians, but on their clothing and on all of their possessions. Meaning there was literally this plague of boils everywhere. Not just their bodies, but even on top of their clothes. Not just on top of their clothes, but on top of their pots, on the floor, everywhere. Now, I know according to science, this is not something that makes any sense, but who says that it needs to make sense if God is running the world? And of course the Egyptian suffering was twofold. When they would have to see their possessions, whatever they just bought back that they lost in the previous plague, die with them again or suffer again. And the prophet told us what the devil did. And Zakaria says that this is what Hashem will do to Adam. This is going to be the plague that will put upon all of the nations that came to meaning all the nations before. If you remember from my film Gogu Magog, one of the things that will happen at the time of Msiah is that all of the nations initially will fight each other and then eventually they will decide to all go to Yushim to attack is they'll arrive in Yushim. All of these enemies, Hashem will put them all in one place. Says all of those that come to one place, they're going to get the plague. They're going to get the plague. The uh verse in Zakaria, by the way, in case you're interested, is Zakaria chapter 14 verse12. Chapter 14 in Zakaria has a lot of uh interesting details of what's going to happen at the end of days of what Hashem is going to do to the enemies of the Torah. Next, Hashem will brought bad is hail. But if you just simply think it's the hail that you saw in some YouTube video that's really big and it when it went down it broke the windshield, then that's not the hail that came down on the Egyptians. The hail that came down on the Egyptians was very, very different. First off, the Torah says that the hail was ice. Well, inside it was fire, meaning something that was against nature. Was according to human logic, something that's impossible. It was fireballs coming from heaven that were inside ice. It was like a meteor attack. But that wasn't all. the lice and some of the other plagues also came in at the same time. And if that wasn't enough, when hail would hit certain people, they would freeze on the spot. Hashem would send hail on top of certain animals and they would all freeze into like a big ice cube full of animals. An Egyptian turning into ice. All types of supernatural things took place during the hail plague. Much more than just hail smashing on the heads of evil people. Now, if that wasn't enough, Hashem also brought the wild animals to have fun taking the animals of the Egyptians and hurting the Egyptians. During this, some would freeze in the spot or on the spot. Some would uh watch their uh their animal, which is really their god, be eaten by a uh predatory bird. All of these pictures weren't just uh out of imagination. Each one of these details of the pictures is based on a certain midash that said this happened. But the Torah is much more extensive than technology is. So we couldn't fit all of the midlashim into a single picture or even all the pictures. But each one of these details is not just creativity. Each one is based on what the sages say happened. different parts of Egypt, different people in Egypt, different forms of punishment that Hashem brought about upon them. Why do you bring them the bad? Because they put in places that were far away from their homes in order to take care of a empty field. In order to take care of trees that did not need anything to be done to them. in order to just sit there, just do anything except go home. So, you can't bring more kids to the world because we don't want anymore. We don't want any more Jews. Hashem says, "Okay, you want them to be in the fields. I'm going to send you someone that's going to destroy your fields. and anything that's out on the field. And that's why the Torah says those Egyptians that fear the word of Hashem went inside and those that did not pay attention did not uh uh put their heart to it. Meaning they didn't uh take things to heart stayed outside and died. And while they saw their field and animals die with them in horrific ways. And the prophet in chapter 38:22 again he says that in the same verses we mentioned before that will bring this hail upon. In fact, the Loes says that there was hail that was uh part of this plague. But then when Moshe Renu prayed to Hashem to stop the plague, Hashem stopped that hail that was falling down in midair and put it back into the atmosphere. Part of that hail fell upon Amalech when Am when uh Moshe Rabenu was fighting against Amalcch in the desert. Yeshua Benoon was leading the army. And part of it will fall upon the wicked people in Go Magogu. Next, Hashem brought upon the Egyptians the locusts. The locust was a very interesting and terrifying animal because it had nothing to do with the locust that you're familiar with or that anybody's familiar with. The locust that they had go upon Egypt had sharp teeth like a human being or an animal or a vicious animal which is obviously not the type of locust that we're familiar with today. Again, the plague is written on the Egyptians and the locust specifically targeted the Egyptians eyes. They would eat their eyes, blind them, and destroy everything and anything in their path. But if that wasn't enough, the rest of the animals came to join the party, too. Snakes, alligators, and all types of horrible creatures. that while the Egyptians lost their vision and could no longer see, they could still hear. The amount of locusts that came to Egypt literally became something that's beyond comprehension. Now, I've seen a few videos of a minor plague of locust that happens in different parts of the world and it's terrifying. Literally, it's so many of them. They darken the sky. They eat everything in their path. And as much as we have heard about, have seen in videos, all of it is literally nothing in comparison to what happened in Egypt. Why did Hashem do this to the Egyptians? Again, measure for measure. Just like they would uh have plant things for them for the Egyptians benefit, plant for the food, plant for different things. But to the point they would make them work so much, not because they need more planting. They'd make them replant sometimes in in the same place they already did, just to keep them busy enough so they don't go home. So they don't go back to their wives, so they don't go back to their family, so they don't bring any more children to the world. Even if that meant they're going to make plant more than what we need, there's going to be more fruit and vegetables and so on than what we need. It's going to go to waste. It's okay. As long as the Jews don't bring any more kids to the world, we've achieved our missions. That's what the Egyptians mindset was. So said, "You did that. Now I'm going to send the locusts to eat everything that you've planted and that evil eye that saw the good in Israel as something bad. The prophet in chapter 39:17 says that all of the types of birds and everything that has wings will be gathered at the time of Mashiach to attack the enemies of Hashem. which you include this unique type of creation of the ar that uh was the plague in Egypt. Apparently, the wicked people, the enemies of Hashem that like to make YouTube videos against Jewish people, that like to make up stories about different excuses of why they hate Jewish people or are trying to destroy them in any other way. Apparently, they're going to get to uh get a closer look at a real footage of this Albe that's coming soon. It's not going to be like the Sakata huge bug that comes to New York every 17 and a half years because Sakata at the end of the day, even though it's hideous, it's harmless. These are not harmless. Just think of it a saka with the teeth of a rottweiler something like that. Then akados who brought makos. Now, interestingly, at the face value of Makosh, it looks like it wasn't. It was the one exception to the rule that wasn't. Why? Because first decided that he's going to bring this mak this darkness upon the Egyptians not because of the Egyptians but because of the wicked among b. Why? You see during the plague of they have the name of the plague on them. They can't see anything. They can't even see their own hands. But made this specifically that way because there were those among Is that liked the Egyptian lifestyle? They wanted to be Egyptians. So they befriended the Egyptians. They kissed up to the Egyptians. And little by little they got up the letter with the Egyptians as to be excluded from Ben Isel. They adopted their false beliefs of idolatry. They wore their clothes. They acted like them. They were like those evil ones that we had during the Holocaust. that we also had during the times of Greece. the media of the worst enemy that we've ever had was within ourselves were Jews that became part of the enemy that became part of Egypt became part of the Greeks became part of the uh Spain became part of Nazi Germany because they always tried to not just fit in to the nations but to overcompensate and they would be a lot more violent and aggressive and evil against their own fellow brothers in order to look better to their new friends. So those people wanted to remove them from the world because they didn't have the merit to go to Mount Si to receive the Torah. They didn't want the Torah. They didn't want to leave Egypt. But if he did a plague where the Egyptians would be able to see him killing all of these wicked B, then they would think that, oh, the plague is uh hurting everybody the same. So what did he do? He made a darkness plague. But during the first three days, the Egyptians couldn't see that Hashem was burying all of these wicked in the ground alive disappear from the world. So he couldn't they couldn't see him killing and destroying them. And that's why the Torah says that when we left Egypt only left which means 15 20% of that were in Egypt actually left Egypt. The other 80% died during the darkness plague. So initially it looks like the plague was not a measure for measure rather was something that uh was only about but that's a mistake. Why? Because as Rab Frame brings in page of the book, the different horrible things that the Egyptians would do in order to be entertained when they got home from their day. They would want to uh relax in their house. They would want to bathe. They would want to do all types of things. But in order to do all that, they would need light. So they would take one of the Jews or a few of them, give them a some type of uh pot or canister of of of some kind that had oil in it and have them put it on their head. have it a cand or some type of a uh fire coming out of it and the with the wick and they would have him put it on their head and have them sit or stand in a very unusual shape with a threat to go along with it. If a single drop of oil comes off out of this it's going to be your head instead. Meaning this poor Jew had to stand there or sit there in some type of contorted way with fire on his head and sometimes on his head and in his hand at the same time just for the sake of providing light to the Egyptian in an entertaining way. Meaning it wasn't enough to provide light. He couldn't just take the oil, put it on something normal and just leave it there for fire and lit. No, no, no. He wanted to also he enjoyed the suffering of the of looking at the Jew. He enjoyed the suffering of the Jew. So it wasn't enough that he was tired from being a slave all day. He took him also for this job as well. So, Hashem says, "You made pleasure out of the Jewish people's suffering in order to provide you light. I'm going to take away your light and provide you all of the suffering you can possibly imagine during that darkness." In fact, the darkness was a horrific horrific plague upon the Egyptians where it wasn't just enough that they weren't able to see anything. The only time that Hashem allowed them to see is when the Jewish people would pass by and able to look at all of their treasures and Egyptians couldn't do anything about it because they couldn't move. On top of that, the all of the shindalim, the demons would surround the Egyptians making all types of scary noises while the Egyptian is sitting there standing there with no ability to move whatsoever. In so many words, the same thing they did to the Jewish people that they weren't allowed to move while holding their light or else fear uh face death. They got the same thing back. They got the same thing back. All of this smoke is different types of shindalim and all types of creatures that are not of the norms of this world. Let's just say as I said before one of the things that the prophet tells us is that this is actually in Jeremiah that uh there will be not just three days of darkness but 15 days of darkness at the time of Msiah. be 15 days of darkness which apparently is also going to be utilized as a time for Bah to get rid of many of the wicked people even if they were born Jewish because just because a person is born Jewish does not mean that they're going to automatically see the benefits of the salvation. If a person does not do chuva, does not follow the Torah, they'll be part of the destruction, not the salvation. Lastly, the mak we see that in the Torah the plague of the firstborn is different in the way it's written than the rest of the plagues. when it says dam all of the different plagues, it just names it, you know, blood, you know, lice and so on. But when it comes to the plague of the firstborn, the Torah says the plague of the uh uh firstborn. The shalom says that's because there was two there was multiple parts to this Makkah. There was multiple parts to this a uh to this destruction of the Egyptians. One was the Makkah, the hit that they got from all of the Egyptian firstborns who found out that their next on the line to be killed. They attacked, there was a revolution among the Egyptians. They attacked the kingdom and killed tens of thousands of other Egyptians because they didn't want to die. So they said, "Give in already. Give in to Mosheu and to these uh to these Hebrews. Let's go. Let let them out of here. We don't want to die." The other reason why they killed him is because they found out through how things were with the with the plagues that they were uh their wives cheated on them. So they went and killed their wives, they killed the people. In so many words, the plague of the firstborn was not just Hashem killing the firstborn of a few households, but rather it was a complete destruction of the Egyptian Empire. Why specifically the firstborn says the Banel? That's because Is called Hashem's firstborn. And you tormented my firstborn. I'll torment yours. Let's see who wins. That's why Kadosh Bahu chose their firstborn and not their second born because it was a way to unveil the adultery among the Egyptians because they each household would see two, three kids die. But if there's one firstborn, why would two or three kids die? Because the husband found out that his wife had kids with multiple husbands and not just him. So these kids that he was paying for were not really his kids. If that wasn't enough, Hashem sent some of the animals to eat the bones. Meaning anguish upon anguish, every bit of suffering that could possibly happen, Hashem brought upon them. Because the number one joy that the Egyptians had in keeping the Jewish people away from their wives and not having any more children is to see how much agony B is had to deal with. How much they suffered from this. How much they suffered from not being able to be with their family. How much they suffered from not being able to bring children to the world. how much they suffered from their slavery because the Egyptians literally enjoyed the suffering of the Jewish people of the Bahub brought magnified their suffering in return and just like they hurt's first Hashem punished them. This rautai gives us an inclination at least more of an understanding of not only what happened 3,300 years ago in Egypt, but also what's going to happen here in this world in this lifetime. And in fact, what's already happening, a lot of the things that are happening in the world seem like they're disconnected from the Torah. But as the said, even if there's a tsunami or an earthquake in some far away country, certainly it has to do with Israel, certainly it has to do with the dua. It's a warning from from Hashem for us to do chuva. It's a warning from Hashem for us to fix ourselves. Everything that happens in the world is measure for measure. Now, I know people are irrational when it comes to emotions and especially when they don't really know all the facts. But if you remember, it wasn't too long ago where I told you that, you know, people were supporting the Ukraine war, supporting the Ukrainians. And I said, "This is a foolish thing." Because if you look at history, not even a long time ago, we're talking about the time of our grandparents and great-grandparents. The Ukrainians killed millions of Jews. They weren't less Nazis than the Nazis from Germany. In fact, some claim that they killed even more Jews than the Nazis did because the Ukrainians hated religion, hated the Jews, and it wasn't something that, you know, they they were so uh it was foreign to them. When the Nazi Germany decided to kill Jews by the millions, the uh the Ukrainians uh was said, "Oh, Thanks. Welcome to our party. We've been doing it for a long time already. So when you see Jewish people supportive of the Ukrainian side against Russia and say, "No, but listen, Russia is supporting Iran. They're Yeah, listen. actually look at recent history, the Ukrainian side is much worse to the Jews than the Russian side. They killed much more. So that's number one. two, when you see what's happening to the Ukrainians over these last few years and you compare it to what they did to Am to our grandparents and great-grandparents, you start seeing some similarities. This is not just a coincidence. the same thing that it's not a coincidence that the people that suffer the most from what's happening in America with this whole ICE uh you know invasion and uh different parts of of the United States where they're taking people that don't have documents in America and they're uh supposedly intending on sending them back to their countries but in reality they're putting them in I don't know what they are some camps concentration camps secluded from the world, secluded from communication, everything. Most of the people that are suffering from this, which again not justifying it in any way. Most of them though seem to be people that are connected to Spain of Spanish descent. Now again, this is not by any means justifying any harm to any person. But remember what happened to Am is under the Spanish Inquisition, what they did to the Jewish people in the Spanish Inquisition, how they hunted them down, how they tormented them, how they did all these horrible things. The if you ever study, maybe one day I'll give a whole she about the Spanish Inquisition and what actually happened to us. But if you start looking at what happened then to what's happening now and to whom it's happening whether it's this or it's that or it's anything else that you see that's happening to specific groups of people I promise you if you look closely and you compare it to Jewish history to biblical history to AmI's history you will see that those that are being tormented, persecuted, hurt in different ways, apparently have some type of connection to those that did that to the Jewish people in the past. Again, this is not a justification of anybody doing harm to anybody else. This is simply an explanation of how runs the world. There's no such thing as happen stance. There's no such thing as coincidence. Hashem doesn't just let a leader of a country just target a specific group of people for no reason just because he's racist against Mexicans or he's raced against black people or he's raced against Jews or he's raced against whoever. No. Hashem runs the world and he pulls the strings of different leaders to do his will. Why? because those particular souls did that to Amy's in the past. Whether it was the Jews that were in Spain before they completely annihilated the comm Jewish community in is in in Spain and those that did not leave completely empty-handed and left all of their wealth behind. those that tried to stay behind, literally the amount of torture they had to endure, physical torture they had to endure. They all prayed to die. Horrible, horrible things that they did to them. Horrible things. And it all started with something that seemed, you know, innocent or at least, you know, justified. They just looked for them. Let me seclude you. Let me put you somewhere else. but then eventually got to the horrible things. So everything that's happening in the world, especially if you see that it's happening to a specific group of people or country, no this is the finger of God is in so many words closing accounts. He's closing accounts. Don't think that the financial situation in Venezuela or other countries in South America just didn't drop almost 100% almost overnight with their currencies just because they don't know how to manage money. Don't think that just because a uh something happened and the Japanese decided that people uh you know uh shouldn't have so many kids and before you know it their population is aging in such a way that they're literally one or two generations away from being nothing. Why? Most of the people that live in that country are old people. They can't have kids anymore. They're literally on the path to extinction. Don't think that all of the things that are happening in Dubai that people are starting to find out now that a lot of it, all the glamour, all the beauty, everything that's happening there is really in the background is a bunch of slaves. There's practically like Egyptian slaves in the background that they're bringing from other countries. that is keeping everything going. But it's not like slaves like they just pay the minimum wage and it's fair labor. No, no. Like literally like slaves. Don't think that all of the things that are happening to any group of people are just because whether it's Somalia or it's in different parts of Africa, it's different parts of America, it's different parts of Russia or China or wherever, Hashem is closing accounts. Hashem is making sure that each and every group pays the bill for what they did in their history. Now, this doesn't mean that those that are harming them are going to get rewarded for it. If the opposite, they'll get punished for it. The fact that you chose to be the stick that hits that Hashem uses means that you're wicked, inherently wicked yourself. and you have to get hit yourself eventually. But the point being is is that what we learned from these plagues that happened over 3,000 years ago and how their prophecy to happen again is that everything that Hashem does in the world is measure for measure. There is no happen stance. There is no mistake. There is no coincidence. This is also one of the reasons of why believing in anything else, whether it be some guy that, you know, claimed to be God and then he died and he couldn't even save himself or some guy that says that there's a new uh uh message that some angel gave to him in the desert. All of these other things are complete nonsensical. Why? They defy the divine logic. They defy even human logic. They don't make any sense. Why? Because you see how precise Hashem is with every single plague with who gets it and why they get it. So why would he suddenly change it and only give the message to one guy in the middle of the desert? Why would he suddenly contradict himself where in his Torah he says, "I'm not a man that changes his mind or that has a body and yet come in a form of a man like the Christians say." See, all of these beliefs, anyone that understands what the Torah says knows that it's impossible for there to be any other truth other than a Torah. There is no, you know, a uh a uh, you know, levels of truth. It's either true or it's false. And yes, there's a monopoly on truth. The Torah is the only truth that exists. That's what we got from God. There's the written Torah. There's the oral Torah. The written Torah and the oral Torah come together. Why? Because the written Torah is what we have. The text, the oral Torah explains to us what this text is. How do we read it? How do we understand it? What does it say? All the behind the scen uh behind the scenes details I just told you about, how to read it, the vowels and so on. So the more a person understands the truth of a Torah, the easier it is for you to see everything else to be a lie. Plus, the easier for us to understand everything that's happening in the world and not start feeling, you know, some type of doubts about the creator of why he's not helping this guy or why he's not helping these people. Listen, he's the one that's doing it. Now, this doesn't mean that if you see somebody that's getting hurt, you should be happy by no means. We pray that people have uh, you know, Hashem helps them and that Hashem provides for them and so on. Certainly, we're not even, you know, we weren't even allowed to uh to uh celebrate uh certain things that we got as part of our salvation. When the angels wanted to to celebrate that the Egyptians were being destroyed, they weren't allowed. The Jews were allowed because they are the ones that suffered the anguish, but the angels weren't. Why? Because they're also his creation. The point I'm trying to make is that this is not to dance around anybody's grave or to celebrate about anybody else's misery. This is simply to point out that there is an order to this world. There's a king to this world. There is only one God. He's the one that is managing all of it. He's the one that's deciding what will be and what won't be. The only thing that is really within our ability to choose is whether we will follow his Torah and do what he says or not. Everything else is not within our control. Whether someone lives or dies, whether they're rich or poor, whether they get married or not, they have kids or not. All of these other factors, Hashem decides. What do you decide? You decide whether you're going to follow what Torah says and apply to your life or not. Jew or Gentile, you could follow what Tawa says as a Jew and get rewarded. You can follow the Torah as a Gentile, which applies to you and get rewarded. You can ignore it as a Jew or as a Gentile and get punished. That's up to everybody. Everybody has that choice. Hashem says, "I give you these lessons, these plagues, not to just entertain you, but to teach you that I'm the only one that's running the world in a precise way that's beyond your comprehension." And what was is what will be. Choose wisely on which side of that equation you're going to be. I showed you what was. in order for you to choose wisely of which part you're going to be on, of which side you're going to be on and what will be before it happens. Because once it happens, it'll be too late for anyone to decide to switch sides. This too will give us some more to bring to our to bring to our to bring to our lives and shape the rest of the decisions we have moving forward based on that.
