Parashat Matot: Loyalty To HaShem In a World Full of Fakers

[Music] in boa lots of uh interesting things happening uh over the last uh couple of weeks we had the um couple of new that daily the recording that we do uh these couple of days had a lot of really good feedback about the uh recordings talking about uh Pinas Pinas and the infinite amount of things that we can learn from him and the way that he acted and uh how we could apply to our life if uh each one of us can apply just one of his means mid not all of them just one one of his midot to our life you already become a special person in hashem's eyes and hashem's eyes are the only ones that matter uh the problem today is that P is the opposite of what's considered normal someone comes out and tells people that they're sinning is not has never been popular not just with pinhas but ever if you remember from pinhas the begins with hasem specifying that he's talking about P why' you say Pinas everybody knows I mean the but C the Heavenly Voice is coming from sh they know we talking about why are you mentioning P hasem wanted to make sure that everyone knows this is the one not just for that generation but for eternity this is the one that gets the special Covenant Shalom he's getting the Covenant of Shalom meaning that he'll not only going to have a uh uh good life here but he's never going to die he's getting a special deal from hasem he's also becoming a qu he's getting all this wonderful treatment but why did hasem mention it in uh why just mention it to him privately send him an email give him a little secret Hey listen by the way between you and me good job good job should have used two Spears not just one why why why what's the uh big it's like Mount SII Mount saem's voice came out of the sky everyone died all of am is died they heard hashem's voice with the first commandment everyone died he brought them back to life he said the second commandment everyone died again he brought them back to life and they said to Moshe no no tell him to stop talking whatever he says we do just you go talk to him you go talk to him because if he continues talking we're going to die why they say we're going to die it's written in the verse we're going to die why because they di twice so aem's voice it's a big deal so why is AEM exposing his voice to make sure that everyone knows who he's talking about because hem knows that the guy that's a the guy that rebukes the public the guy that is going to tell people the truth the truth of Hashem not the truth of the lowly disgusting generation the one that's going to expose the truth is not going to be the most popular because most people do not want to hear the truth this is why the gar says that gun Eden has a specific size that they know about they know the exact measurements of ganeden but Gom doesn't have a size it never ends it's not just bigger it never it doesn't have an end meaning a lot more people go to G than they go to ganeden why because they don't want to hear the truth they want to live this life they want to enjoy what they call enjoy this life they don't want to pay the bill in this life they want to make sure that they uh do whatever they want in this life but when they find out that everything that they did was a complete waste of time it's already too late now p is not the only one that had to deal through this with this where everyone wanted to go against them everyone called him a murderer everyone called him that he you know called him different names saying he's coming from a bad family that his father-in-law used to be a uh Idol worshipper they called puel but puel is the same one it's the same thing as because Pinas was married to's daughter she says your father-in-law he used to uh fatten lamb meaning used to you take the lamb and make it a Corban make it a sacrifice for for the idol worship so now you're sadik all of a sudden yeah but they didn't mention the fact that there this the same father-in-law that used to be an idol worshiper also became became one of the most righteous people that ever lived to such an extent that AEM has a Paras written in the Tor after his name so they didn't mention that part why because when someone is trying to take you down they're going to use whatever they can whatever they can so P everyone wanted to go against them and Hashem made sure that all of those people that want to go against him all of those people that saying that he what he did was wrong they know that they are wrong but this does not happen all the time this actually happened very rarely throughout history another person that's one of the greatest people if not the greatest person that ever lived is mosenu also had to go through this for 40 years he went through this for 40 years is did not like the fact that mosu was telling them what to do that M was telling giving him the law tell him listen all of this meat that you slaughtered while it was at Mount saai if the throw it in the garbage why because you at the time you slaughtered these animals you didn't know the kosher but now I have the Tora to says what the kosher laws are and obviously you didn't follow it cuz you didn't know that means all of these uh animals a tar give it to the dogs millions and millions of dollars worth of animals have to go to the dogs this is why in sh the holiday that we celebrate the the receiving of the Torah we dairy products because that's what ate because all of the meat went to the garbage wait aren't you supposed to not give noner meat animals dogs only if it's a only if it's meat and milk if it's meat and milk then you're not allowed to benefit from it in any way you're not allowed to eat it you're not allowed to cook it you're not allowed to sell it so that's if it's meat and milk you're not allowed that's why it's mentioned in the torat three times the same verse is mentioned in t three times about uh meat and milk and that means that we're not allowed to have these three benefits from it so even giving it to a dog you're not allowed to give why because if you give it to a dog that means that you'll have then you'll you'll save money on giving him dog food you you're giving him something and instead of dog food which means you'll benefit to some extent financially so that's a benefit you're not allowed to give it to the dog but as far as t meaning something that's not Kosher then you're allowed to give it to the dog and as a matter of fact it specifically says in the Tora the non- kosher animals you give it to the dog why to the dog dog is considered the uh a cursed animal so why is hm giving him a present he specifically mentions in the Tor on one end the dog is a cursed animal a but another hand he says give the dogs this present anything that's not Kosher you give it to the dog why because at the time we had uh we left Egypt the uh the dogs didn't bark they stayed quiet and the dogs were one of the alarm systems of the Egyptians the Egyptians had a lot of different types of idol worship like today we have uh you know we have alarms and we have all these different types of Technology things that tell you if somebody's breaking in or breaking out of a place in the days of Egypt if you look at the mid and and a few other places uh you'll see that the Egyptians didn't need Electronics they had different idol worship where if someone crossed a certain line the actual Idol will talk and start screaming saying that the person is passing a line magic can so different types of sorcery and one of the things that uh one of the things that would alarm these Idols would be the dogs so all the things you see in movies about uh special effects it comes from the Torah all of it comes from the tah humans have no uh no uh actual imagination of their own uh but the thing is though is that anything that's any good in life has to come from theah anything that's any good CPR was very everything's CPR anything anything that's good we always can find it in the tah even oneliner anything uh you just have to know where to look but the point is is that since the time uh we left Egypt at that time the dogs didn't bark and for that they got a present for that hasem says okay all the meat that's not Kosher goes to the dogs so uh you know it's it's it pays it pays to be uh good to Hashem also the Frog the frogs during the um uh plagues of Egypt when mosu prayed to hasem to stop the frogs after par begged him to stop so Moshe pray to Hashem to stop these frogs but you can't just you going to tell the frogs please it's time to go there's millions and millions of frogs so he prays to Hashem and Hashem made them go but how did he make them go immediately they had a choice the frogs had a choice either they jump into um they jump into the water they run out jump into the water or they jump into the fire and many of the frogs jumped into the fire and Hashem made them come back to life in the water so even the frogs had a certain level of uh choice and the ones that made the right choice by honoring hashem's name and jumping into the as soon as they heard the news that they have to go they were brought back to life all of these different things interesting things are in a midash it's a uh it gives the uh the stories a lot more flavor uh because once you know that each part of the story each character in a story whether it's an animal or it's a person or it's different everyone played a role uh you see that this is not something that um you know somebody just created a few years ago this is something that has extraordinary amount of information about it and that's why even uh the people that doubt the Torah they still don't doubt what happened in Egypt and the reason why is because there's proof there's archaeological proof of what happened in Egypt not be just the pyramids but even if you look at the um journalist there was a famous journalist at the time of Egypt that wrote everything all the 10 plagues he was Egyptian he wasn't a Jew he hated the Jews but he act just like you write in a newspaper something happens today I know Donald Trump s says something foolish Hillary Clinton kills another 50 people Obama declares war on some uh you know some Ally whatever these things it goes on the news right okay so same thing over there they also had journalist back in Egypt so there's a journalist that wrote down everything that happened during the 10 plagues exactly as the Torah describes it the blood the lice the frogs the hail everything everything the animals everything everything that happened in Egypt it says on Tor he describes it word for word and he's an Egyptian why is it a big deal that he's an Egyptian because it's a third party that's not biased if anything he's biased against us if it was another Jew if Moses wrote a journal and someone found like yeah yeah but it's Moses who knows maybe he's uh clever you understand if it's some guy Yakov wrote it okay it's yakob he's part of the nation probably just wanted to Hype the whole thing up make a few dollars probably tried to write a book trying to get a signing bonus but some Egyptian writes against but at the same time prove the Tor that's a big deal so there's an enormous amount of proofs uh for the Tor for what happened in Egypt or in The Exodus uh and the reality of it is just like it says in chapter four of the book of Deuteronomy which will start next week if you look for me you'll find me if you look for me with all of your heart and all of your soul you'll find me so that's one of the things that we have to understand is that no one can show up at sh no one can show up in sham with an excuse that oh I didn't know oh I uh didn't have a chance to get to to read it what do you mean the reality of it is that every single one of us is responsible for our life responsible to know all these things and we cannot go up to Sham with an excuse I didn't get a chance to do it why because someone that wants to make a living has to learn about his job right now someone that wants to be if I told you listen you want to be a millionaire 99.999% of people will say yes okay if you want to be a millionaire I can teach you a profession of how to be a millionaire so okay when do I start I tell okay listen not only I can teach you but you have to understand it's a tough schedule no problem you have to wake up at 6:00 in the morning no problem you finish training every day 10:00 at night no problem you do this every single day for six days a week we don't work on Shabbat no problem you have to do this and you're going to pretty much barely survive for a few years no problem and eventually you're going to start you're not going you don't make a million dollars day one it's going to take you you know a few years to build up no problem why no problem because you want the goal you want the prize at the end how do I know this is true I had hundreds of people come to my office every single day with the same exact dream they all wanted to be millionaires and every one of them would go to a process many people would not make it I trained over 130 different people to be salesman some of them made it and became very successful some of them completely wasted my time and money but the reality of it is that everyone wanted the dream why because they see that I had a fancy watch also but mine didn't make music like this uh and uh they saw that someone is sitting in an office you know big office lot of employees in his 20s printing money practically who doesn't want it okay whatever you did I want to do the same thing like you go to the dentist it says rinse and repeat tells you oh rinse and repeat rinse and repeat say fine sure if I have teeth like the woman in the picture I'll rinse and repeat eat all day he doesn't tell you that she's been doing it since she was born practically and most likely the teeth the fake he doesn't tell you that he says repeat okay which toothbrush oh it's the one that's $150 fine no problem which toothpaste the one at $60 no problem because you want the results same thing with these employees all these employees came and they wanted the results and they were willing to sacrifice and some made it and some didn't but either way they're willing to sacrifice Hashem is telling you just like you willing to sacrifice a year 2 years 5 years 10 years 20 years in some cases to reach a level of success in your career that's only going to last what 30 years 40 years 50 years how long is your career going to last how long you going to live here 70 80 120 let's say m 120 you're M okay you're 120 Also let's say you live 120 years that's it then what then you have the real world the real world is eternal it's forever a million years is just a beginning it's just a beginning meaning that 120 years it's not even a phase it's not even equivalent to the time that it took me to pick up this uh cup and drink nothing what's 120 years hasem says so for this 120 years you invested 20 years to learn to make a few dollars that in reality what did you really enjoy out of it but for the Eternity for the for the what's going to last forever you couldn't invest a half hour you couldn't go to sh for a couple of hours you couldn't invest 15 minutes a day it's no excuse my friend or I didn't know okay you also didn't know how to be a millionaire before you tried being a millionaire but that didn't stop you you didn't know how to be a millionaire before you came to work for me right but you that didn't stop you from coming in fact it encouraged you to come why because you saw this is the place to learn how to be a millionaire so you can't use a thatat excuse oh I didn't know okay you didn't know that's why you go to a place where you learn oh I didn't have time but you didn't say that with the job you were trying to work really hard you didn't say to the guy listen I need to make uh the million dollars faster than a couple years this your your training system takes too long I need to make the million dollars by next week you have something better he didn't say that why cuz he said listen whatever it takes you're realistic whatever is I'm going to do and eventually I'll get there you didn't say I didn't have time you didn't say I have to go watch basketball he didn't say I have uh a busy schedule when you wanted to succeed in your Material World you invested everything and anything in some cases for something that's just temporary so why couldn't you invest some time for something that's permanent and this is one of the things that most people today do not understand even the ones that know exactly everything that I just said by heart because there's knowing it and there's living it living it means that your priorities are different than all of mankind knowing it okay so you heard read this you you watched this as a clip you read it in a book somewhere okay okay you committed it to memory that's it you know it big deal I know what the sign and cosign and the tangent of certain numbers are does that mean anything to you no it also doesn't mean anything to me it's completely worthless knowledge I can tell you the financial history of certain companies I can tell you where to find red flags in corporate financials I can tell you who's a good CEO who's a bad CEO what's a good business what's a bad business business who's going to make it who's going to succeed which is all based obviously on my opinion but also experience is all of that worth anything no it's worth absolutely zero why because I'm not in the business anymore if I was in a business still putting money to work that knowledge could be could be put to use but if I'm not in the business world anymore the knowledge is worth zero same thing with someone's Torah knowledge when you see a guy who sometimes comes to you with black and white says acts like he knows everything but acts like an animal that means that everything that he learned in Yesa everything that he learned in the books it's all worth zero you see a guy that comes to and every time you start a sentence he complete your sentence you also know that everything that he learns means absolutely nothing to him it's just something committed to memory why because if he knew midot if he had even a half an ounce of of a character trait that's good quality he would know it's not polite to do that so knowing it any monkey could know it you could even teach a monkey to speak if you really want you could teach the parrot to speak there's a there's a parrot by the way the story about a parrot that made two people do Chua already he not joking do you know the story about the parrot it's not RAB mra's parrot he doesn't have a parrot he said the story I thinki said the story a couple of rabbis said the story it's a famous story it's a parrot that used to say shabbat shalom and uh and uh I heard it originally from ra the story and I also heard it from M uh so there's a parrot that belonged to a rabbi and uh used to say Shabbat Shalom shabbat shalom shabbat shalom all the time shabbat shalom so one day in Israel some guy stole the parrot he didn't know this parrot say shabbat shalom he just stole the parrots a nice big parrot stole it after a couple of weeks he comes back he knocks on the rabbi's door he goes I'm sorry I took your parrot and the guy's with a keeper he goes oh okay it's okay it's okay he goes no you're not upset at me goes no no absolutely not I'm not upset at you it's okay I just want to let you know that uh I started keeping Shabbat because of this parrot you know it's uh I just goes why what happened to you he says I don't know was not keeping any mitv obviously a thief few weeks ago and uh Shabbat I'm smoking a cigarette and next thing you know this parrot keeps screaming shabbat shalom shabbat shalom every two minutes I'm like I started thinking to myself the parrot knows it's Shabbat and I don't know it's Shabbat start keeping Shabbat Rabbi says yeah good you're the second guy it's done that to you're the second guy started keeping sh because of this parrot that so parot has a but the reality of it is that just like the parrot knows how to speak we know how to speak speak the difference between us and the parrot is that we have free choice of what to speak parro only knows a couple of words we know how to use these words we know that we can use these words to say good things and to deliver honesty and to say or we can say say nonsense and waste our life just like the Tora says each person comes to this world with a limited amount of words to use things that are nonsense they have a limited amount of words to use in their lifetime which means that someone that speaks a lot of nonsense in essence what they're doing is they're killing thems they're cutting their life short but when it comes toes holy things things that are relevant to the Tor you're allowed to speak as much as you want so when someone comes to and says listen I used all of those words that you gave me but I used them to talk about the Mets and the Yankees and the Knicks and the Patriots and I don't know all these hedge fund managers and the CNBC anchors and all of this nonsense and I didn't use any of that time to Sayes that's not they're not going to take it too well they're not going to take it too well in sh why because they give you free choice they give you an opportunity to choose choose or not so in parat mat we continue the story of what happened with Pinas we continue the story of what happened with is in the beginning of the Paras Hashem is teaching us the significance of vows and Oaths vow is a and oath is a in in Hebrew and then right after it we continue the story of what happened at the uh end of the story of bam Hashem commands us as a nation to go and take revenge against the midianite nation for causing am is to Sin from here we learn that hasem doesn't take things lightly in chapter 31 verse one says Hashem spoke to Moses saying take Vengeance for the children of Israel against the midianites afterward you will be gathered unto your people meaning Moses is going to die after this which we'll go over in a second hasem is telling Moses tell the people go take revenge against the midianites why take revenge against the midianites because these are the very same people that caused am is to sin and led to a point where we lost 24,000 of our men they sent their immodest women we fa for the test we failed miserably as brought a plague That was supposed to Shalom destroy the entire nation not just the 24,000 Hashem decided to destroy the entire nation but P's act saved the nation but even though it saved them and he didn't kill any more people it still killed 24,000 people so Hashem said says go take the entire nation and go take [Music] revenge and the reason why is because according to the Mish the one that makes a person sin is worse than somebody who kills him it's worse to make some somebody sin then to kill him according to the Torah why logically this doesn't make sense to us rationally it doesn't make sense to us if one of the campaign people that people keep talking about Donald Trump and Hill Hillary Clinton and I don't know whoever else is in is running or walking or whatever they're doing over there if one of them says Listen by the way all you Sinners are going to G because you're not modest throw them out you tell all all of you people that uh all these newscasters are causing people to sin it's worse than murderers I say this guy needs to go to a mental institution this doesn't make any sense to us but obviously if Hashem said it then it make sense how does it make sense when we realize the significance of a sin the only way for a person to realize what it is to be close to Hashem is once he starts realizing the significance of a sin according to thear it says that each time a person sins he creates shim he creates demons and those demons are going to affect him how are they going to affect him they're going to cause him to want to sin even more because they get more power when someone what is this like when someone is for example hanging out by thems most likely as a young kid they're not going to do anything bad yeah do a few things to get attention here and there but overall little kids don't do anything really really bad by thems but if you have them hang out with another bad kid most likely going to start doing stupid things if you have them hang out with a group of losers all they they do is smoke pot steal things and beat people up for fun you're guaranteed that your son is going to become a complete loser guaranteed there's no no no no there's no Second Chance guaranteed the kid becomes a loser I actually had a friend when I was young which I can't believe it's that many years ago but uh nice kid really really ni nice kid moved from Brooklyn to stal where we were living at the time and I remember in like Junior High School we used to compete who gets higher scores on a test smart kid and you know it's I try to be smart and we uh we'd compete he'd get a 90 I'd get 91 I'd get you know 90 get you know compete it was competition but then once we went to high school he started becoming friends with the uh the uh neighborhood losers the kids that all day all night all they did was beat up people anyone that looked at them the wrong way they'd slap them they beat them up they'd break things over their head gangsters but young gangsters and he started hanging out with them and if you see what happened to him over the next couple of years he became worse than all of them worse than all of them eventually I think he became somewhat normal but it took many years of beating up people and realizing that it's complete nonsense meaning that if your son or your daughter is going to hang out with bad people you guaranteed to have bad results the same exact thing goes with sins if you go to the movies if you watch TV if you go to the beach if you go to the bar if you do all of the things that you're not supposed to do you guaranteed to sin as a matter of fact schl says another guarantee to sin is if you get to a point where you're bored boredom leads to sin it's Proverbs it's an actual verse in the T says boredom leads to sin meaning you sit there do nothing all day like oh I'm not I'm not hanging out next to bad people how could that boredom leads to sin whether it's wasting seed for men or other stupidity or other things for women either way boredom leads to sin once somebody sins one sin leads to another sin not because we want the sin but because now that we had in the beginning we were by our s after we sinned we created a demon maybe a few maybe a million depends on what kind of sin now we have influence we have influence of 10 demons we created we have 10 losers trying to influence us to smoke pot for the first time much more likely to do it then when you only had one guy trying to convince you so then the guy folks and now he created more sins now he's friendly with more people now since now he's he's popular now he smokes pot now he's friends with losers next thing you know he's going to pot parties so now if he's going to pot parties what you what's going to happen now now he's going to start making his own pot parties so now he's friends with 500 people couple years move on he advances in a loser world he starts selling pot and everyone knows the end of it gets addicted to more drugs gets addicted to more drugs gets addicted to that disgusting lifestyle eventually gets involved with gangsters murderers and rapists has them all on his speed dial on his telephone and this is why anyone that asks me about uh the this uh how unfortunately pot became a legal business in certain parts of America and anyone that asks me about it uh which has unfortunately been often it's not allowed unless you're specifically giving it to sick people sick people they have HIV they have cancer they have some type of terminal disease yes but the reality of it is most people that buy it at the store are not sick they're addicted but they're not sick they just found a way to get a card they found some criminal doctor to give them a prescription and uh and that's what happens so they they have an excuse to do something stupid legally this is the same concept with our sins the guy only started with one bad friend and the next thing you know he's a uh drug lord in Colombia shipping cocaine from uh ship to ship from coasta coast how do it start it start with one sin so by the time one day he wants to do Chua it's not that easy it's not that easy to do chuva when you're married to a Goya you have three kids that are actually according to the to not considered your own even though biologically they're yours according to the tah they're not yours if they convert they're even more so not yours so much show that according to the Torah you're allowed to marry them if you want kazal says you're not allowed because it would look weird to the rest of the people that don't understand T but when someone has a daughter with a non-jew and she grows up eventually she's 20 years old he was let's say had her when he was 20 she was born when he was 20 he gets to 40 years old the girl grows up to 20 and she decides to convert to Judaism he's actually allowed to marry her according to the Torah according to asem but Kaz says you're not allowed why because people would think we're sick why because according to Hashem he sees us Spirits he doesn't see us as human flesh he sees us as the the all of us point being is that once some guy has been making sin after sin after sin after sin after sin for so many years he's now 50 60 years old he's married to a non-jew or she's married to a non-jew with several kids and finally discovers the truth it's not that easy to do chuva it's not that easy it's still possible but it's not that easy this is why all of you are relatively young you have to understand this is your shot heard if you wait you lose you you lose more and more each time each time you wait each time you have an opportunity to do real chuv and you don't take it you lose a significant amount of help from sham and you end up also aside from losing the help you go back to sinning so you're creating more shim you're creating more demons you're creating more of a negative influence in your life to do more bad things which is going to make it more difficult for you to get rid of them even if the guy wants to do cha hanging out with the 250 losers can tell by the way guys I'm going to go to Yeshiva instead it's a hard change yes it's happened before and it's happening regular you know all the time but it's one here one there not everybody's doing it all want it's hard why because they're used to it they're used to that lifestyle the worst punishment is when they close the gates how you value that's they close the gates is to somebody the worst punishment you can get in this world like he said is that when someone is causes other people to sin uh to such an extent that he causes other people to become Kim to become Heretics and go against hem uh then the worst punishment according to the rambam is that they don't let him do uh don't don't give him any help to do chuva it says that they Clos the door of chuva but it doesn't actually mean that he's not able to do Chua it just means that it's almost impossible because he has virtually zero virtually zero help from Hashem to do chuva these people always angry are they always angry I don't know I don't know that many evil people but I know that most people that are not connected to Hashem are always angry not just people that make other people very easy you get a lot of help you get more help it's always hard in the beginning but it becomes easier over time point being is that everyone of you that's here you're still young you're still the beginning of your life you're all being you're not here by coincidence you're not here just because you had nothing to do and you felt like going to sh T at 10:00 at night each and every single one of you is being given an opportunity a special invitation from Hashem himself to do chva before you run out of time whether someone's going to run out of time because the mhia came once the mhia comes there's no more conversion there's no more chv or someone ran out of time because Hashem says okay you thought you're going to live till 120 I decided you're only going to live to 50 time ran out unfortunately some people their time runs out at 20 at 15 at 25 at 35 I have kids that I you know guys that I used to go to high school with and I found that they're dead already 10 years ago one guy got into a car accident another guy drowned another guy got cancer how many disasters the older you get the more dead people you know that's how you know you're getting old but the point being is no one expects to die but if you look at the Torah from the five books of Moses to all of the prophets to all of every major significant book by kazal every one of them with no exception everyone talks about death everywhere you see they talk about death King David talks about death all throughout Psalms everywhere they talk about death why because death can be one of two things it's either the beginning of a great eternity a beginning of extraordinary time beginning of the reward beginning of the promise that hasem gave in the Torah of what happens to a righteous person or the beginning of Eternal suffering sh you said on the CD that R from bre used to see death like going from one room to the next okay from B saw the world in a different way than we did just like I told you about ra uh before the sh it's worth to mention it most people see the world as all of us see it they see people walking around they see bodies they see but sometimes you get rewarded and you see something a little different as you were mentioning before animals see different images and uh spirits and things that most people can't see some people can see them there's actually uh quite a few people in the world that can see different things there's actually a woman uh that uh lives in America that she can see uh the uh writing on your forehead and why what's the writing on your forehead writing on your forehead is all your sins the stier would be able to know what sins you made just by you walking into the room and if Shabbat walked into his walked into his Yeshiva he wouldn't see him just just he walked into Yeshiva yes's door is let's say you know I don't know end of the building he's coming into the ISA the stapler is studing he's not playing shes Bish he's he's glued to hasem all the time somebody comes in he has a door knock door closing somebody comes into the door he starts screaming get out he starts screaming at top of his lungs until the person runs away he feels him not just sees him people would come see him they put the hat to block their forehead because they knew that he could see all of their sins this is not 500 years ago it's the past generation when someone is glued to hasem they get a special Vision or if they're a cat the babaali also able to see babaali oh what babaali used to see says if someone actually saw all the things things that are next to him they immediately go crazy so one of the sages wanted to find out how can you see this so there's actually there's a secret in the T how to do this it says in the it says how to do it don't do it somebody wants to kill thems you know I can't help people that are stupid but there is a way to do it it's written in the gar it has to do with taking the stomach of a cat burning it putting the ashes on your eyes and then you're able to see it the problem is that you can't undo it and the sage that did it could not stop screaming and yelling from Fear up to the point that all of the sages had to get together and pray for him either to die or to stop seeing this is sages this people that were able to revive the dead we don't have any of that today somebody does something stupid and puts does something with a IG board or does something with a uh all types of uh sorcery things that are not allowed in the tah and getss in trouble you can't undo it there's a lot of different all the stuff is real there are things in the world that are real that are spiritual that are a mystical that are not normal there's a lot of things that are real there are even people that even know how to use Shem to actually use demons to their benefit magicians and so on there's ways to do it but there's no way to undo it so once you're in that world you're already in G because you they start taking control over your life point being that sometimes you get to see things so one time I'm in he says to me I don't understand people I said what do you mean I don't understand why people get all uh crazy when they see women that are uh you know not modest and half naked to me that was a weird thing to say cuz I come from the secular world I have barely any idea what what he's even talking about what do you mean you don't know why people get crazy when they see a half naked woman that's what I'm thinking to myself but I'm trying to I'm think maybe I didn't hear him because it's not a normal things to say so I told him what do you mean k what do you mean white people he goes why the people get so worked up when they see a woman that's not modest he called it naked like I heard it again the same thing twice he doesn't say too many words cuz he knows he only has a limited amount of words in the world he says so I'm like okay he said it twice obviously this means something but I still don't understand the question I like what do you mean and he looks at me and he sees that you know he sees in my face I don't understand what he's talking about he says what they don't see the fire that's the difference we see them half naked until people that don't watch their eyes it looks good he sees her skin melting from fire of Gom that's the difference when you glued to AEM you get different Vision which actually reminds me before I forget anyone who did not take the CD you should take it it's called watching your ey series by Rabbi AI weisenfeld I uh it's only a few lectures I actually listened to uh the first two it's very very good I usually don't really recommend rabbis uh CDs other than r mrai r NAA generally don't recommend anyone I actually had the chance to uh listen to it and I have a bunch of them and I give them out very very very good he's very good good says the truth to the point highly recommended to uh to get this CD whoever who doesn't have it uh you can watch it on Torah anytime watch it on the uh internet fantastic fantastic Sho or series of about watching your eyes because your eyes are your windows either to GED or to Gom you choose which one whichever one you want to use it you can use the same tool up to you hasm gives you choice but it's one of them for sure there's no middle choice so after we see that Pinas gets celebrated by Hashem we understand that he's being celebrated because Hashem already knows that the rest of the nation is going against him they don't like a guy that tells the truth but this is not the first time they've been doing the same thing for to mosenu for 40 years every time is a rebukes them they want to go against him whether it's K or it's the 12 Spies or it's the entire nation they're calling him different names they're calling him a they they accuse him of trying to steal all the money they accuse him of trying to steal their wives they accuse him of the worst possible things in Judaism the guy that gave them the Torah the guy that sacrificed his life for them over and over again they're accusing him of everything else even though they know it's not true why CU they don't like to hear what he says but this is not the first or the last time you look at every single Prophet it's mentioned in the Torah what's the prophet's job rebuke tell people the truth you must reprove or rebuke your nation Jeremiah came and told the nation that they have to do chuva he ran into the tribe of Ephraim and he saw them wasting seed he told him to stop or else they're building themselves a VIP pent house in G and it won't get out someone that's a uh wasting seed on purpose goes to the seventh level of Gom and never leaves ever so Jeremiah tells him this what do they do make him do it they force him to do it they tell them you have two choices either we're going to rape you or you waste seed Ezekiel same thing every Prophet every Prophet came to rebuke the nation some people actually killed the prophets cut them into pieces too many stories to tell all of them I have a question is the one that left Egypt early I know bamin bamin everyone that tells people the truth lives a difficult life this didn't stop this continued after the prophets I sheets lived a couple hundred years ago KES kashim holy man glued to hasem all he cared about was all he cared about was doing K helping do get back to hasem wake up which is 260 years ago I think if he showed up to our generation he'd be convinced he's in gome already he's trying to rebuke the people he's trying to tell them the truth what do the people do they accuse him of the worst possible things you can they accuse him of not doing his laying his they accuse him of being all he's doing is trying to make people writing books trying to give lectures trying to get people to do chuva people publicizing shim on him making up all kinds of Lies making up all kinds of stories trying to beat him up all types of torture torture much torture he lived a life full of torture and every single person that does tough life tough life it's why it makes me laugh sometimes when I see some people and I tell them all it's busy it's a h got a lot of lectures we got a CU is never ending the lectures are just the beginning of the job is the beginning the real work starts after the lecture you meet people privately the phone calls the emails the messages nonstop hundreds and hundreds of messages bashem and text messages and emails and crying on the phone and people are sick and people stealing and people this and all gambling and uh sick how many people are sick people want to get divorced problem with the kids problem with the spouses problem witha NeverEnding problems people want to kill themselves people want to kill themselves have a few of those unfortunately both so far good still alive and doing Chu so I see somebody I haven't seen a long time it's busy it's this said yeah but you like it though it's fun for you you like it right it's fun for you I think to myself you really have no idea what kiru is you have no idea what it comes with it's not to get any credit or anything is to explain to you guys that you could all do it much cheaper much cheaper take a CD give it to some somebody it's much cheaper for you to do it you don't have to do a whole balagan with the questions and the answers and the uh this and you get the same scoot same sco you take CD you give it to one secular guy by the way listen maybe you should watch listen to the CD raisfeld M whoever just do CH for God's sakes do chv you give a CD cost you a dollar the guy does cha who's better than you we sending links it's even for free links do for much cheaper much cheaper on your life much you don't have to get beat up like a IIT you don't have to get tortured like uh Jeremiah Jeremiah prayed to hasem to stop the torture but after they made him waste seed he prayed to Hashem cursing the day that he created him cursing the day that he was born that's how bad why because he sinned the one time that he sinned he cursed we do it freely like it's a uh just to make sure we don't run out of opportunities to sin he sinned one time but not even but it's not even an he was forced and actually there's there's a book written by his son s is a book by S who says because he was such a sadik Jeremiah Was sadik that hasem didn't let the seed be wasted he didn't let the seed be wasted he made the seed going to a woman and actually actually a um brought a kid to the world yes the woman was his daughter I tried to not say that part because most people won't understand it they'll think something crazy in their mind they don't understand The Miracle part but yes it was his daughter the point being is that when AEM loves you he gives you special treatment even removes you from sin it stops you from sinning he he read he understood p and he also gave us a message that we can take with us forever so for 2,000 years we've been suffering from baseless hatred hating each other for absolutely no reason no reason Safar hates the ashkanazi why yeah he's ashkanazi ashkanazi hates the safarik why he's saric both of them hate the yemenite why cuz he's yemenite those guys hate this one the other one hates that one the Moroccan hates the guy from triple the guy from triple hates the Moroccan or he hates this one everyone hates each other for no reason whatsoever how do I know they hate each other just look at the marriages today a young pretty girl brings home a goodlook boy usually that means that say it's a good match come from a good family even better wow it's already a miracle but if they find out Shalom that he's barkarian and she's from Tripoli or she's from somewhere else no come on it's not for us it's not for us bharian with bharian trip from triple Moroccan with Moroccan ashkanazi ashkanazi all this stupidity that we have infesting our nation for 2,000 years and we've added even more to it over the last 150 years we added even more it wasn't enough to hate each other now we hate the converts too it's not enough to sin by hating each other we add a little bit plus we want to make the sin even bigger remember what I told you you make a sin makes you inclined to make more sins so what happened now a lot of people are anti conversion because unfortunately there was a lot of fake converts that ruined it for everyone but there's always been fake converts even since Mount SII doesn't mean you hate all converts as a matter of fact they ha a convert if it's a righteous convert it's 36 different sins minimum minimum why 36 it's mentioned 36 times in the tah the special deal that hasem gives the convert they're considered higher than a natural born Jew so by disliking a convert because they're a convert you're actually making 36 different sins each day you do 36 today 36 tomorrow by the end of the week you made a few hundred by the end of the year you made a few 2,000 good luck at G what do you want me tell you enjoy the fires for what for what what are you hating them for what do they do to you if it's a righteous convert supposed to love them it's the opposite but it's what happens we make sins we get far away from Hashem because instead of hem we have demons what happens we create more sins we create more stupidity in our head knew this he says one thing that Pinas did that unfortunately we don't do he says the worst type of the worst type of baseless hatred that one can do worst type it's not between ashkanazi and safarik it's not between the yemenite and the Moroccan it's not even between the convert and the Natural Born Jew it's not between them who's it between it's between all of us he says when one Jew sees another sinning and doesn't say anything doesn't rebuke him that's the worst there is why say because if you're not sinning that means because you know that there's two sites to the story there's there at the end of this short life there's GED there's according to page 17 some people get Gom for a year some people get Gom for eternity eternity means forever some people in between point being it's very much real it's not like a illusion or fairy tale or like a midash that you may or may not believe an elective it's very much real says once you know there's a g you're not allowed to not rebuke your friend why cuz you know the train is coming straight at him you're not gonna tell him to move who's more evil than you you seeing someb making the worst sin in Judaism you're not going to say anything you're seeing somebody writing themselves a first class ticket to Eternal ghome you're not going to say anything you're much worse than the guy that hates the ashkanazi or the Safar or the yeminite or the G or anyone else you're much much worse why because when you actually kill somebody only cutting their life short here which is actually AEM signed off on it anyway you're only being used as a tool to end somebody's life shorter than it was supposed to be but it's just this life this short life anyway so you kill somebody okay it's not good it's a sin you're going to suffer for it but the point is it's just this life but when you make somebody sin you're affecting their eternity and when you actually see someone sinning and you don't do anything about it the in says that you become the sinner himself you take on the sin yourself you're not allowed to keep it to yourself This what P knew and this is why Hashem says that you have to go against the midianite people and kill everyone when is came back soldiers came back they saw that they had have the women and the children they didn't kill them Moses was angry with the commanders of the army says how could it be these are the very same people that caused us to lose 24,000 people these are the very same women that caused am is to die and nearly be annihilated and you let them live you use your own rationale your own human rationale to do something against the will of hem you must kill anyone that was involved pretty or not pretty nice or not nice none of that stuff matters whoever was old enough to be with the man meaning whichever was actually sinned whichever one of these women that you saved was part of the group that led to am is sin must be killed must be killed no Second Chances why cuz hm is not kidding now when we went to this war in chapter 31 verse 4 Hashem is telling us that there's a certain way that we have to go to war and chapter 3 in uh verse three it says Moses spoke to the people saying arm men from among yourselves for Le for the legion that they may be against Midian to inflict hashem's Vengeance against Midian a thousand from a tribe A Thousand from a tribe for all the tribes of Israel shall you send to the legion asks why does it repeat the same two words didn't you say that there's not even an extra letter let alone two words in the Tor thousand thousand per tribe if you say thousand per tribe I understand it's from every tribe how much thousand right so why you saying a thousand per tribe a thousand per tribe teaches us the secret to success in waru knew that the one that wins Wars is actually we don't win Wars our weapons are meaningless our brains are meaningless our muscle s meaningless the one that wins Wars is Hashem if you want to win a war in life whether it's a war between countries or a war in life first you have to convince the boss to let you in so for every thousand soldiers that Moses sent to fight he put a thousand of the same tribe in Yesa learning Torah the Torah is going to be the one that's going to convince hasem to let us win this war the guys with the weapon is just making it look realistic like we're involved effort everyone knows you go to work you make money at least it's supposed to be that way right but not everyone knows that regardless of whether you go to work or not regardless of whether you sell newspapers or you sell diamonds regardless of whether you sell mortgages or you sell Electronics regardless of whether you're a lawyer doctor or anything else whatever Hashem wrote for you on R is what you're going to make if he want you to be a millionaire you're going to be a millionaire selling Q-tips to hotel chains if you want you to be broke you could be a major hedge fund manager that was the smartest guy on the street that all of a sudden became stupid he signs off the sooner you realize it the easier life is going to be unfortunately when we don't realize it we create a very very difficult life for ourself when we think that it's everything is in our power we start making decisions based on our own rationale and unfortunately many people start doing things that are stupid some people gamble either with their friends casinos bookies some people gamble in their business take risks that are unnecessary and they make mistakes after mistakes but in the beginning Hashem lets them get away with it cuz he wants cuz until now he wants to give thema but eventually time runs out you didn't do chuva so okay those same things that you that worked for you for 10 years because I let them work for you okay you didn't do Chua right you didn't keep Shabbat right you still watching TV on Shabbat you still walked around with your wife half naked you still didn't work on schom B your kids look like they're secular but you make yourself feel good cuz you sent them to Yeshiva you're still playing with the money that I give you instead of giving you give it to The Bookies or you give it to all types of things that are against the to which by the way anyone that gambles it's such a big sin they're not even allowed to be used as a witness in a wedding you know you need Witnesses in a wedding huh considered yeah same thing same thing a he's not considered a fair person a reliable person cannot be used as a witness but unfortunately a lot of us Jews have this disease once we know the risk we more likely to want to heal oursel but until we know the r we don't know the risk we have a problem and we don't even know we have a problem we have a disease but we don't know that we're sick so when people take these risks and Hashem says okay you didn't do Chua let me show you what happens when I'm not saving you and he makes everything disappear just like that and people don't believe it's going to happen to them do you guys actually think that I ever thought that I was ever not going to be a millionaire I was making more money in one month than most people make in a year or in a few years it wasn't even rational for me not to be a millionaire okay maybe I'm not going to be Bill Gates okay maybe I'm not going to get to the goals that I wanted for myself but financially it was impossible to go broke too much money too much money coming in too much money already saved it didn't the miracle wasn't making the money it was a big bigger Miracle losing it it was a bigger Miracle losing it because when I made it I didn't have half the knowledge and experience that I did when I lost it which means I should have actually made more with this knowledge and experience that I had I supposed to be better hurts even more right no it doesn't hurt me at all I like the fact that I lost all my money it's the best thing that ever happened to me he said in one of your um sh I think it was in LA that someone who make like let's say wins you go to the you gamble you play poker with your friends MH you win a, bucks it's like you stole from those people a th000 bucks and you have to come back and get the gold C how does that how are you connecting that to the business you just talked about gambling with oh okay no I didn't make my money from gambling I made money from business gambling was just fun fun sin that I was doing I actually made money in gambling also for a little while but then lost it but no my money I didn't lose from gambling I uh it's probably one of the reasons I did lose my money for the sins I made but that's hopefully accepts my ch sted gambling no depends depends on how you do it depends if it's a uh if you're buying things for no reason and there's no Rhyme or Reason of why you're buying it you're just buying and selling and trading you know for without thinking about it just because you think something is going to go up or you have a feeling like some people say they have a feeling usually that feeling is just gas it's not really a feeling of uh of of a stock going up or down uh but the reality of it is if you're just buying based on feelings then yes that's gambling but if you're buying it based on thorough analysis you research something and based on an educated guess no one knows based on an educated guess and is to effort you think that something is worth more than what you're buying it for then of course it's not gambling it's business same thing when somebody buys real estate when they buy a piece of real estate why are they buying it they're not bu buying it because you know what I'm going to buy this million dollar building because I'm sure I'm going to lose 200,000 no they're not buying it because they think it's worth less they think they're buying it because they think it's going to be worth more same thing with a business the guy is not going into the business says listen I'm going to open this chain of stores because I'm certain 100% I'm going to lose money on every one of them no right he thinks that he's going to make money out of them but he doesn't know no one knows so everything in business in general is an educated guess based on experience and Analysis if what you're doing has experience and Analysis and you put an effort to it then it's not gambling at all but if you're just buying it and selling it because you have nothing to do with your life and you're lazy or you're just I don't know just stupid and you just want to gamble then yeah that's gambling and that's a sin so it depends but as far as when it comes to um doing the right thing it becomes more and more impossible to do the right thing as you make more and more sins because the more sins you have the more bad influences you're going to have on your without even knowing it meaning that you already lost the battle before you started it in today's world the Jewish media thinks that IDF the Israeli Army Israeli Defense Force and the Israeli intelligence and their allies of what's been winning the wars against the Muslim extremists and the people that hate Israel very rarely will you ever hear any compliments to the Learners of Torah for winning any wars in fact they go against the Learners of Torah they call them losers and all types of other names for not going to the Army and for fighting against it now if they all read this parasa and it says that you know Moses never lost the war Moses conquered seven different nations over here he destroyed Giants destroyed the biggest civilization that ever existed one against amalik the very same amalik that almost annihilated am 70 years ago called the Nazis Moses beat them how for every thousand that go to war with the weapon I have a thousand that going to convince hem to let them that weapon work it we didn't have any fancy weapons we didn't have a uh special missile system we didn't have any secret agents weever any allies everyone hated us back then they still hate us today but we won every war how so if someone read this for every single soldier you sign up to the Israeli Army you have to if anyone actually believe this even the Christian Army would have somebody learning to life if they actually believed it problem is people know this people know this verse it's not a some obscure uh unknown verse people know this and actually as a matter of fact in our KY package that we send out to people it's one of the verses that we mention in the in the letter the letter that we send people that just that we need to defend ourselves with modern weapons the more of a need of Defending ourselves with our Torah so people know this but very very few believe just like people know that there's a meaning you must rebuke your brother or your nation but very few people do it so so our goal is to get to a point where we start practicing what we know if we practice 10% of what we know could already change our life Pinas got all of this Fame got all of this recognition got eternal life got a special deal with hem got to be the messenger that's going to tell us when the mashiach is going to come 3 days before mashia comes he's going to show up who's p p p same person he's going to be the messenger tell this mhia is here get ready for what for telling the truth and acting on it a lot of people are looking for the truth and if they look for it they'll find it but as AEM says in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 4 if you look for me you'll find me if you look for me with all of your heart and all of your soul why don't hasem just finish that sentence if you look for me you'll find me that's it okay I got it if you look for me you'll find me I got the point why do you have to add the other half of the sentence if you look for me with all of your heart and all of your soul effort ah in order to find theem my friends you have to have you have to self sacrifice no one in the history of mankind ever did or ever will be able to find AEM to such an extent that they become a part of its life that Hashem becomes a part of their life permanently without says there are three things that could only be earned with meaning self- sacrifice three things T and you cannot gain any one of those three without m a lot of people do Aliah to is but you hear a lot of terrible stor Sometimes they come back to America or to Canada or to different places around the world they go there for a few years and they come back oh it's too hard it's too this it's too that or sometimes they stay but they struggle for a while says listen you're not just going to earn the Holy Land without self-sacrifice I wrote it in my Torah need self-sacrifice earn it's not just your money earn your stay that's why so many of us were vomited out of the land says in the Torah if we sin the land vomits Us the land vomits us so anyone that's in the galute anyone that's in the Exile just so you know you were vomited out of the land you need to do chuva if you don't live in Israel that means you need to do chuva there a reason why you're not there but the point being is that just going there it's not the right decision for everyone someone asked me why don't you promote people doing Aliyah to is why don't you promote people go back to Israel isn't it going to be safer since we're in the days of M isn't it getting problematic for us to live around the world anti-Semitism in America is at all-time high last statistic showed over 40% of Americans admit and call themselves anti-semitic if that's the ones that admit we don't know how many don't admit they're still embarrassed fanatic Muslims have taken over many parts of Europe France is officially Muslim but not the type of Muslim that's kind and nice rather the type of musle that wants to kill anyone who's not Muslim the different parts of America that actually have terror camps that the FBI knows about knows about these terror camps knows about these camps that train terrorists it's not a conspiracy it's a fact they know about these terror camps cuz you know America is a huge piece of land so there's a lot of places you can buy 50 acres for $3 for nothing I remember back in the day we had a uh some money and uh we wanted to buy some land for what for no reason we just wanted to buy some land you have nothing to do with your money you do stupid things so I heard this place Tennessee they're selling this half of a mountain sounded great like oh well it's probably millions of dollars no it's $80,000 for like 40 acres 40 acres of land is like $80,000 in New York one acre is like 50 million we're not used to it so you can go to different parts of America and you can buy acres and acres of land and no one will even know what you're doing there you can grow all types of you know drugs and Terror and all types of Gom you could build the Gom inside the land no one would know America is huge the worst part about this is that America does know about these terror camps they have them they have them on videotape and they still do nothing the police they still do nothing it says one of the prophecies the Muslims are going to rule for 9 months it makes a lot of sense now yeah unfortunately so she says to me look we all know we're in the end of times reading the last page of that tells us what's going to happen at the end of times like reading the newspaper says before the Mas comes everyone will go broke page 97 Ben David means mashia says mashia is not going to come until no one's going to have even a PA even a penny in their pocket everyone's going to go broke including the rich ones especially the rich ones they probably go broke first but no one that's rich ever thinks they're going to go broke doesn't make sense it does not make sense to go broke someone has spendable money okay one deal two deals you go broke someone has 50,000 100,000 500,000 even a million dollar it's not that hard to go broke you make a couple of mistakes you go broke someone has 5 million 10 million million what do you mean you go broke what do you mean you're going to lose everything even if you're an idiot you're still probably not going to lose anything cuz just put the money in the bank earn interest and that's it stay an idiot but you're still going to be smarter than everybody else because the money is earning interest you have to do nothing what do you think people that are on a billionaire list reformed Jews that are on a billionaire list think that they're ever going to go broke the guy that controls Las Vegas you think he's going to you think he thinks he's ever going to go broke the guys that control major companies around the world like Starbucks that are anti Israel you think he thinks he's going to go broke the guy that controls Facebook that Mar that's married to a Goya you think he thinks he's going to go broke no one thinks they're going to go broke but eventually the time comes when Hashem shows you who boss but that day is going to be too late mosu is telling you if you want to win a war I give you instructions here for every ounce of energy that you spend in your business if you want to succeed spend just as much on Tah for every ounce of energy do you spend on nonsense at the very least you have to spend it on tah anything you want in life to have success he already told you how to succeed at least be fair be fair you want AEM to give you everything that's fine I'll give you everything I already gave you everything even before you asked before you asked I still gave it to you but now you want something extra I didn't give it to you you want something extra fine I'll give it to you but just like you're spending an hour a day watching baseball spend an hour a day watching Torah anytime that's what he's telling you want successes is the secret after mhe tells everyone that this is unacceptable Behavior we cannot leave the Sinners alive we almost finished with the introduction we're not uh we cannot leave these Sinners alive so we start killing people start killing these sinners you've tell this to people today that don't believe in the Tor I tell you this Torah is full of wicked people why you just killing women because they walked around half naked you're killing people because they're homosexuals you're killing people because they drive on Shabbat kind of kind of I don't want to believe in that kind of a God that's what I heard from somebody even if I this is what he told me even if I wanted to be to follow the Torah to follow this follow God I still wouldn't listen to this Torah so what's wrong with the Torah cuz look look what they say are people that drive on Shabbat look what it says are people that are homosexual look what this uh it says about people that are not modest since what do you mean look what it says it's What God Says CU if that's God I don't want to listen to him that's what he say I told him that's because you don't believe in him if you actually believed this these words actually came from Hashem You' say thank you can I have more why how do I know this most people that speed on the highway or steal or do anything wrong anything that's against the law even if they know the law they know people know they're not allowed to steal people know you're not allowed to drive like a crazy person but they still do it why cu no one thinks they're going to get caught because they believe that the law exists but it may not necessarily be applicable to them it's applicable to everyone else but to me I'm in a hurry I need to drive 150 M an hour right now what's the problem officer I'm in a hurry why are you in a hurry my wife called me she's waiting for me she delivering a baby no then why you in a hurry our show is starting American Idol we want to see if Pikachu wins this year but that guy drove because he doesn't believe that the law is applicable to him but as soon as the police officer stops him it's a reality check he starts believing in the law and starts apologizing oh I wasn't sure I didn't realize that I was I realized that you know they start eating the words I don't even know what to say I didn't know that I was speeding I didn't pay attention you know everybody's very nice all of a sudden that may work with a cop but it doesn't work with AEM doesn't work with Hashem so Hashem is telling you this is what I wrote this is what I said it's not it doesn't matter if you agree or not doesn't matter if you like it or not it's irrelevant even though there are many many different flavors that we have about the MIT meaning there's a lot of different benefits that we know of about most of the whether they're eating kosher because it's healthy or it's it's less pain for the animal and so on and so forth family Purity is actually much healthier it makes your love life much much better over the long run it's better in every single way that you could possibly imagine lowers the divorce rate lowers the fighting all types of benefits and this is the same case for most of the mitv that we know of there's a few mitvah we don't know the benefits of them like we don't understand this mitvah but most of the mitvah we understand the benefits or at least some of them but that's not really the reason of why we're doing it cuz even if we didn't understand we still have to do it why cuz hem said so which means that as long as you're not doing it there's a part of you either a really big part or a small part that doesn't believe Hashem said it but most people that consider themselves Jewish don't call themselves atheists at the same time most some people unfortunately do call themselves atheist and don't keep anything but most people that are trying to do cha trying to keep some they don't think of themselves as atheists but this is exactly what you are if you're not doing everything you know because you don't believe in the same God of am that's always there if AEM is AEM he's hasm all the time not sometimes so we have to understand what's missing why don't we why don't we think it's related to us why don't we believe Hashem said it we have to dig deep down inside see why is there a saf why is there a doubt because the doubt is not from the Torah the doubt is from you you're missing something you have to find out what it is because if you wait you show up there he says oh no I wasn't really sure okay now you're sure oh okay can I have another chance no mashia already came it's over you already chance no no no but can I have another chance no it's right out of time you already had 87 gilim oh really who I was at before oh you were already Cain that killed Abel that many gim and I screwed up all those times yes why cuz you weren't sure they gave you a chance gave you one 2 3 5 10 50 chances to be sure you still never one short okay so that's it you ran out of time after am is does what Hashem says kills the Sinners kills the political correctness that was in them that let those people live for a short period of time they end up inheriting a lot of wealth from conquering a land and now it's up to Moshe anden to divvy up this The Spoils of War everyone comes all of the leaders that led this war 132 leaders come to Moshe with all the spoils the cattle the gold the silver the people you know the ones that didn't sin they become servants but not like servants like people think to be a slave in Judaism is not like a slave that uh people think today that's one of the mistakes that people that uh don't understand today they think wait if you agree with with the Torah that means you agree with slavery yes I agree with slavery but that mean you also agree with slavery Noom I don't agree with slavery look what happened to the poor African-Americans suffered from slavery I said yes I don't believe in that slavery either though cu no but you just said you believe in slavery yes but not that slavery I believe in a Torah slavery what's the difference oh it's big difference first and foremost a slave in Judaism in the Torah is by choice either because someone owes money and it has a huge amount of debt or someone stole that's number one two according to the Torah whoever takes on a slave any Jew that takes on a slave they say he also takes on himself a boss why because anything that they have they have to give to the slave first if they have two they have a pillow in the house but there's only one pillow they have to give it to the slave if there's only one bed in the house the slave has to has to sleep on the bed if you're going to sleep on a bed the slave has to sleep on a bed if you're going to eat steak the slave has to eat steak and if there's only one you have to give it to the slave that's why T says whoever got whoever gets himself a slave gets himself a master cuz you have to give him everything before yourself so what's the point why would anybody want to do this you have to release the slave after after seven years you release the slave unless he doesn't want to to leave so that's also answers the question why would a slave not want to leave last time I checked being a slave is a bad job yeah slave of what people think today is a bad job but slave of is a very good one why because first of all you get rid of all your debt it's like the American bankruptcy system you get rid of all your debt you get a good life but on top of it all you're able to leave last but not least you're able to stay but the most important part and why hasem even lets all of this happen and actually tells us this is one of the laws of the Torah is because the purpose of being a slave is to do Chua why would anyone take on a master why would anyone take a slave that's going to tell him pretty much he has to give him everything before he gives to himself because he wants to do a mitvah the guy that stole obviously he's a thief so you have seven years to do kiru on him to get that stealing desire out of his system whoever robbed everyone in business you have seven years to help him do chuva so anyone that's taking on a slave in Judaism is taking on a personal student to help him do chuva but if you don't read this it looks like we're evil people that's the difference after we inherit all of the spoils from war all of the leaders bring it to uh to Mosher raenu Moser Renu spreads the wealth half of it goes to the people that actually went to war because they sacrificed their life but then the leaders come back to Moshe and say your servants took a sensus of the U of the men of War under our Command and not one man of us is missing not a man is missing no one died no casualties no casualty so we have brought an offering for hem each man what he found a gold vessel an anklet or bracelet ring earring or clasp to atone for our souls before Hashem I said listen we went to war with one of the most powerful nations in the world and not one man died kazal says it wasn't just physical death that they're talking about it was also that none of them fell for the midianite trick again like they did last time with the women they didn't fall for the again they didn't fall for the lustrous that they fell for last time said we went there in one piece we came back in one piece that showed us that those people that were studying Tor for us it worked so we want to give want to give the K did the math of how much cuz it says here how much they actually inherited it was 1.57 1507 million shekels for the full Army which is a grand total of 28,6 42 A5 kog of gold if you do the math in today's gold prices it's approximately $1.5 billion why did hem give us the specifics of how much they inherited to show us that it wasn't just some small town they conquered they conquered a very very big nation conquered a very powerful nation and not even one man died and now that they're Distributing the wealth and this distributed because they say that we have to atone for our souls before hem says because technically based on our acts based on our previous acts based on the last sin that we did with all of the medanite women technically we didn't have the Merit to win this war we just made a sin you wanted to destroy us it's not like we made a bunch of mitv in the last uh few days to have a merit to win the war so obviously the Merit has to be due to pinhas who led them in war and Tora says that mosenu specifically made sure that pinhas goes to war with them why because he's the only one that had Merit they W the rest of them were Sinners and he also made that he has a thousand for every thousand Soldiers the K with right tries to run away because at the same time that they have this war right before the war bam comes to collect his money he goes to balak and he says listen I know that my three curses didn't work but my advice did I told you to send a bunch of harlots to the camp of isra they all came with their mini skirts and tank tops and t-shirts and look their God killed 24,000 you know how many soldiers you'd have to spare to kill 24,000 Jews a lot of them were Heroes a lot of them were muscular people strong people you're not can't just kill 24,000 people just like that so I want my money so he came to collect his money and at the very same time am said came to kill all of them and Bam said a uh tried to do Wizardry or sorcery and tried to uh he said a impure name and tried to fly away but pinhas threw a spear with a uh chain like you hold a chain threw a spear and caught him in the air and then pulled them down from the air until they pulled them all the way down and then they did what he deserved to kill him and get him out of this world but here is showing us that they are finally doing CH they're finally realizing that the only one that controls their faith f is they're finally waking up and they say okay listen we finally realize it let us give some so they give some this is a very big deal this is a very unusual step and the reason why it's mentioned they gave all this is because usually give people give when they want something from Hashem but after they get it all of a sudden their memory is not so good he once was a guy he says to Hashem Hashem I have this appointment at 8:00 if I'm if I'm late 5 minutes they're not going to give me the job so Hashem let me find the parking spot please Hashem let me get there on time let me find a parking spot he drives speeds everywhere you know the shorter your amuna the faster your car is cuz you think you're in control of traffic so he drives fast finally gets to the area but he can't find parking this ISS New York there's no parking in New York unless you want to pay $60 a minute there's no parking there's no parking there's no parking and he can't find he's like Hashem please I promise you if you get me a parking spot I'm going to learn to two hours a day meaning two hours a day without speaking all of a sudden he see somebody pulling out right in front of the office he has to go oh don't worry AEM I got it I managed on my own that's the mentality of people every day so usually when we want something from hasem that's when we want to give as I tell people anyone that wants a miracle do kiru do K you want miracles in your life do kiru every single day do kiru not once a day not once a year every day do a little bit of kiru spread Torah around the world give CDs sponsor CDs send out links to people make it an a permanent part of your life another way to get Miracles is studying with Tani this is a huge deal it's a very very very big deal if you can do it but it's not easy but nothing ever is what does it mean starting get to [Music] it kazal says anyone that takes on himself all Torah anyone that takes him on himself a mass of Torah a huge undertaking of Tor they take away from himself a huge undertak taking of other T that he doesn't want instead they replace it so anyone that can take on himself a mass of Torah what does it mean studying Tor but not the uhif not like studying and then taking a break smoking a couple of cigarettes calling your boy hey what's going on what are the Mets doing yeah yeah I'm studying I'm studying yeah he's you talking about baseball what kind of you studying I'm watching right now oh you're watching you're still thinking about the baseball must be very interesting what is he talking about Pokemon kind of you talking about what's so studying with is studying Tor without talking any word that's not Torah so you could study by yourself or you could study with someone but only Torah you can't ask about his family you can't ask about what he thinks of uh the Mets or what his opinion is about Donald Trump and if he thinks he's Gog or any of this stuff that people say if the mashia is going to come or maybe all these stupidities that people waste their life talking about can't talk about anything but Torah but for two hours straight AR says AR says if you can't study without interruption you might as well not study at all that's how much it is so two hours without talking anything but Tor the only thing obviously you're allowed to go to the bathroom because you're not allowed to study if you have to go to the bathroom you're allowed to drink but you're not allowed to talk anything other than Torah 2 hours straight every day not 3 days a week not 6 and a half not 4.7 seven days a week including Yip and but onsh obviously you only learn the things that you're allowed to learn for 90 days you want a miracle that's your ticket it's big deal it's big deal you want to story about it proof give you proof I study two hours in a row oh that's I was going to give you something easy so you get Miracles like mosu of course it's hard that's why what's the point if it's not hard then you're not going to get anything what do you want it to be as easy as catching Pokemon has to be hard so we earn ourselves earn our spot I what's a shield to out for 2 hours is that considered if it's a serious Shield T if it's a serious sh Tora then it's good but if it's a Tora where it's constant like things that are on the head you know serious serious stuff they're not talking about nonsense yeah but it's has to be uh real Tor even if you're learning a book it can't be like a book that's like talking about uh you know just stories it has to be a serious book serious t M uh it could be all of it but it has to be serious it can't be like a half the day is talking about Pokemon the other half is talking about SCH bite you know it has to be talking about serious serious tah for uh for two hours straight without a break other than going to the bathroom it was a guy called ra five and five I'm hoping that F's not upset me for saying this story it's a real story though they call they tell him uh so and so person is in bad shape doctors give him 5 days to live maybe less some family relative connected to someone somehow I don't know this other person 5 days to live maybe less probably not going to finish the week do something so I call you back calls him back a little while later he's going to be fine what do you mean he going to be fine it's going to be fine don't worry doctors didn't change their mind it was 5 days an hour ago before you called It's 5 days now it's going to be fine the guy lived for five more years five more years so I asked the ra what you what' you do cuz I took on T deu studying without talking for a certain amount of time certain amount of hours every day he studies all day anyway but studying without talking when you have five kids in the house a wife you know people around you all day it's not easy distractions this that sometimes you know it could be it could end up being uh more than two hours much more point is that's the secret so you put towards his towards this person yeah have a neighbor every Shabbat he doesn't talk only says K and he studies you talk to him he goes up with his hand he doesn't talk perfect that's t that's people look for they look for different ways to get special blessings special this special that there's plenty of them that are mentioned in the Tor like for example what's the biggest G in all of Tor it's mentioned it's mentioned in the for everything the biggest G the biggest G out of all of this G that's actually has a verse in the Tor that it's a g that's a special special blessing has actual not that many things are mentioned in t as a special privilege it's actually mentioned something in TM says this is the biggest G no Shabbat Shabbat someone wants miracles in their life make Shabbat KES make Shabbat the greatest day of the year every week when you go buy things for Shabbat buy things like it's your celebrating the mashia came every Shabbat when Shabbat comes you already know what you're doing you're not sleeping all day like a uh cow you're eating you're studying you're singing you're celebrating if Hashem wanted cows he just have cows there's many of them in different Farmland all over Tennessee next to the land that I got lot of cows over there I never saw a donkey in America though do you guys ever see a donkey in America I see a donkey in America but in Israel there's a lot of donkeys I remember when I was a kid I mean now it's modern Israel I don't think there's many donkeys in Israel anymore but when I was a kid there was a donkey in the neighborhood all the time but in America there's a lot of cows everywhere you drive on every Highway you go to one of these places where there's a lot of land there's always cows so if hasem wanted you to be a cow you'd be with them so want a keep Shabbat holy of holies I heard is a good and I think it the source of it is in the M does it have like a good source to say par every day uh yeah yeah yeah it does oh ham I thought you were talking about Haman from the uh thing I'm sorry Aman the bread Ken Ken Ken no it does actually yes it does I actually I actually I actually read it for a few months I did it for a few months it's in mying bag I have it's the where we got the Mana bread three four paragraphs do you read from the toah either way it's good cuz every letter in the Tora is considered a mitvah so you start with your reading three four paragraphs with a few hundred letters it's already you're starting off your day good but uh talking about the Mana bread uh is very good because it reminds us where parasa actually comes from where panasa comes from when someone knows that panasa comes from shim they start acting accordingly when someone thinks that parasa comes from their own uh abilities their own brain their own good looks their own mouth their own wisdom their own their own their own their own they're already on their own bad Direction so reading the the Mana bread is uh definitely a good way to start today for sure I did it for a few months but you remind me I should probably start doing it again uh um heard some people had Miracles like they lost their job they started saying it they found a better job could be could be could be it's definitely it's definitely good it's definitely good but the biggest one that I know of as far as Gul other than Shabbat obviously is learning with but it's also much more difficult than reading but the Miracles are much better um we finish with this at the end of the Paras after we beat the uh midianites destroy them kill bam divide up the spoils the money the gold the everything we're now proceeding to go into is but before we get there we all know that we have to fight a bunch of Wars CU a bunch of people there and the tribe ofen and God two of the 12 tribes come to mosenu and they tell them listen we have an abundant livestock a lot we have a lot of livestock we have a lot of cows all the people that want to sleep on Shabbat we have all of them it's part of our land don't make us go into this land we have to split all the land amongst all the tribes let us stay outside across the the Jordan River there's a big big land over here and it's perfect for farming and for what we're doing let us stay here so initially mosu gets very very upset at the leaders of of the tribes of ruen and God says you're making the same mistake that your fathers made 40 years ago because instead of being happy that Hashem is giving you the gift of going to is you're saying you don't want to go and you're probably going to tell other people you don't want to go and you're going to become you're going to become somebody that causes other people to sin and he tells them the whole story of what happened to their fathers of how Hashem killed that entire generation in the desert because of them we were in a desert roaming around in circles for 40 years you're making the same mistake goes no no no no they come back to them he says no we're not saying that we don't want to go and we're we're cutting ourselves from the nation we're saying is that we just want to make sure that we have this piece of land but we're going to go fight with the rest of you as a matter of fact because the tribe of God was full of Warriors we're going to be on the front line the front front line of the war fighting all of the wars with you however long it takes and even after we win all the wars we're not going to leave you we're going to wait until you divide all the land and then after you finish dividing all the land then we'll go back to where we want to be here this land that's it so now after they explain thems m realizes that it's not that they're selfish and that they don't care about is they have a different problem what's the problem they like money too much their priority in life is money how do we know when a tribe of Ren and God comes to Moshe the first thing they mention to him is how much money they have how great their livestock is and how abundant it is they don't even mention that that we have also good kids and they all go into Yeshiva and our wives are very modest they don't mention any of that they just mention how much money they have and kazal asks why are they mentioning how much you know livestock they have didn't they have the same thing like everybody else how how did they get so much more he says no no they don't have more they have the same like everybody else it just that they valued their stuff much more than everybody else everybody was a millionaire it's just the they made the million dollars their whole life everyone else was didn't make the million dollars like it's their whole life they valued money much more but then after that it's even gets scarier in chapter 32: 16 the tribe ofu and God come back come back to Moshe and they tell him they approached him meaning Moshe and said Pence for the flock we shall build he here for our livestock and cities for our small children says we're going to this is the land we want we're going to build different pens different places for our livestock and our a flock of sheep and we're also going to build something for our kids if you notice the order is the opposite It First supposed to say wait we're going to build a nice house for our family maybe a little Yesa for the kids so they could learn some Torah and not be go maybe a nice little area for everybody to study Torah nice house where they have a comfortable bed and they don't have to sleep on the floor like we're homeless maybe give them place to eat playground so they don't lose their mind oh and by the way we also have some sheep and we have a business we're going to build a factory too no they didn't say this said listen we're going to first we're going to build a factory while our while our family sleeps on the street and then we're going to build the city for them like eventually they're going to benefit out of this big company that we're building their priorities were upside down they first mentioned that their need to take care of their money and their business and then their family mosu now that he understands that it's not that they're selfish it's just that they have their priorities lined up the wrong way he says okay you're going to fight with us you're going to do all these things that you say fight with us and stay with us and all that stuff first of all don't worry after we win the wars you don't have to stay anymore until we finish dividing the land whatever it takes us to win the wars you can go which ended up being seven years and dividing the land took another seven years so technically based on what they wanted what they were agreeing to was to stay with for 14 more years and then come back home but M knows until we finish when we finish the wars you go home which cut their time in half I don't need you to stay there watching us divide the land there's no point but then he tells them something even more important in chapter 32: 24 he says this build for yourselves cities for your small children and Pence for your flock and what has and what has come from your mouth shall you do he changed the order of what they said so the same thing they did says first build the cities with the Yeshiva and the house and the playground the things for your children and for your family build that first then worry about your money then worry about your business when yobu found out that his son YF was alive and he sent for him to come with the whole family with 70 people to Egypt yob said to yud go there first and come back when it's ready go what do you mean go there first come back when it's ready what's ready go build us a place that we can study Tor then we can go there he didn't send him listen go build me a mansion cuz my son is Rich he didn't say go build me a nice business so I can make sure that I have he didn't say build me a nice mik area and a spa he said go build me a place to study Tor meaning that when you make a change in your life and you make a move in your life whether it's to a new house a new community a new city a new country a new state a new anything the first thing you have to look at is what kind of tah is in that place what kind of tah is in that place if there's no T in that place you're not allowed to move there what are you going to move there for what what's there one of the sages in the Tora they asked him we want you to be the head Rabbi of our city and he asks them what kind of T do you have in your city who who else lives there what kind of sages what kind of toah do you have like no no no we're giving you all of the honor we're going to pay you a huge amount of money any price you want your rules give you a big giant beautiful build you whatever you need with the books with this goes yeah but what Tora do you have there already no no we going to build you an extra biget and you can give whenever you want and we're all going to come fine what kind of Tora do you have there already no for the that's why we're bringing you we don't have anything cuz Shalom I can't go there I only go to a place with my family where there's already Torah why I'm not going to sacrifice my family's Eternity for a possibility in a big betet yobu sent y the head of the family since ruen lost his position to go build him a Yesa mosu learned from yov he says first build your children the cities with the Yeshiva and the K and make sure there's a place for them then take care of your money 3,300 years have pass and we still haven't learned anything people spend their life chasing their cows and their business while their kids are off the D and they have no idea who God is sometimes the parents think that they did their job because they sent the kid to Yeshiva for I spent uh $2,000 a month in Yesa what not enough $2,000 a month I pay for my kid for yesima $500 a month $1,000 a month whatever it is 20 years I'm paying for his Yesa he still fell off the D 20 years I'm paying for Yesa he still fell off the D maybe he wouldn't fall off the death if he actually had a father too maybe you didn't need to spend $2,000 a month in Yeshiva you could spend less but actually be there some of the biggest giants of Our Generation have expressed a huge amount of concern for this generation that we have right now there's actually aot in the world today that I found out from one of the students not talk about just like hearsay one of the students tells me 80% of my class is off the D 80% what kind of Yesa reform yeah Orthodox Yesa black and white with the black and white and extra White and the extra black and the hat and everything else 80% keep nothing 80% of Yesa having a you here and there fall off the D confused you expected it's life we're in the worst generation in history we are all the We Are The Losers of all the generations in this Gil don't anyone think that they came here like they're a Babas Sal's kid we are the ones that screwed up for generations and generations we have a last chance so you expect that there's going to be someone falling off the D here and there but 80% of a Yeshiva falling off the D there's only two places that you can blame other than obviously the kids themselves the parents M how much can they do you're sending eventually with Thea you sometimes you send the kids away so even a parent that wants to be there I mean what do you see once a month twice a month you're going to try to do your best it's not like the aivas in America for the young kids where you see the kid every single day but you ignore him like he doesn't exist cuz you're so concerned with your about your restaurant sometimes you send these kids away to Yeshiva but the worst part is the biggest fault is not even the kid the biggest fault is Yeshiva itself people that call themselves rabbis that shouldn't even be allowed to be in outside of a zoo they beat up the kids they yell at them they Abus them in public who wants to be religious when you hear this stuff this is happening over and over and over again and I just don't understand the fault of the parents is not that they sent them away the fault of the parents is that they didn't pay any attention whatsoever to what school they sent their kids that's the fault of the parents how do you send your kids to a school where you have have 80% of the people falling off the how do you send your kid to school with 30% off the forget 80 30% 30% there something wrong already with the school there's something wrong with the teaching send them to public school you probably have a better chance already which by the way you're not allowed to send to public school but the point I'm trying to say is that 80% falls off the you know it's much harder to get someone that's formerly religious to become religious to do chuva than someone that's never been religious at all cuz the one that's used to be religious thinks he knows everything even though he knows absolutely nothing he knows information but he doesn't believe anything zeroa point being here is that how what kind of a parent sends his kid to a a school where so many people are off the D you didn't pay that attention you have to pay attention slow down with the with the business and I know Pai is tough for everyone and I know that it's much easier said than done but we're talking about eternity here and that's why mosenu got so upset says make sure that everything that you say you will do because if you don't you will have sinned to Hashem know your sin that will encounter you meaning if you don't do everything that you promise make sure that you know that this sin is going to follow you forever if you don't do this the sin that you have is going to follow you forever if you don't pay attention to your kids first not just you don't do what you said you're going to do with the uh War where you going to lead us with the war you're going to fight fine fine but if you don't take your kids first you don't build their house first you don't wor about worry about their Education First you sent them to public school you sent them to a reformed Community you sent them to go hang out with conservative kids you sent them to Yesa full of uh monster a uh uh teachers instead of human beings you're an absent parent you're woring too much about your business your sin is going to follow you forever your problem is going to follow you forever and this is the main thing that we have to understand for anyone who has kids wants kids or even knows someone that has kids or even thinks about kids and how he wants to help them most important thing today is education and that's one of the things that we're lacking as a nation this is our choice any questions I know as soon as I turn off the camera there's 500 questions so let me pretend like I'm turning off the camera by okay I've been doing a research about uh the oh okay yeah about the souls that stick to you so I heard of the story but happened and he was able to get it out of the girl's body could it still happen today this people who can fix it in today's world they say it happened a few years ago few years ago happened a few years ago to a girl and uh the rabbi That was supposed to be able to do it wasn't able to take it out so she's still like stuck with where could I find the story um I have to remember it I have to remember where I don't remember where this generation it could still go on a few years ago years ago W less than 10 years ago less than 10 years ago it happened a girl uh got a debuk and uh they weren't able to take it out people not as holy as they used to be like right unfortunately no what else so I can't take it out what do that mean what's what's me suffer for the rest of her life until hasem has Mercy on her and either takes her out of this world or takes that debuk out there's no such thing as suffering without sin meaning anyone that has anything is a reason of why he has it suff like this yeah yeah it's possible uh you know listen it's a uh people have a heart time believing or not even believing just understanding the whole concept of tiim the whole concept of suffering because our mentality is that we are supposed to come to this world and enjoy oursel we're supposed to be happy we're supposed to uh you know um be have a fulfilling life very few people actually have an understanding of what life is really all about in so many words you came to this world for very few reasons number one to sanctify hashem's name Kem If you do not sanctify aem's name you have no purpose in the world you're completely useless the cow is better than you and it's not an exaggeration if you do not sanctify aem's name you you serve no purpose cuz even the cow actually sanctifies hashem's name so that's one second reason is to fulfill hashem's will which means in our language work very very hard all of these things sanctifying aem's name doing his will means you came to this world to work hard to work hard to get yourself in now if I told you that this life you came only to work doesn't really sound like fun what do you mean I'm supposed to suffer I'm supposed to struggle I understand you say everything is for the good or not I say butu in the one of the rabbis of Raba said everything is for the good RAB AKA said everything is uh that the merciful one does is the best possible choice both of them are I understand everything is for the good but I'm struggling now if you think that this life is it then you're right if this life was the only life we're going to live then in so many words how they say in you know in common language life sucks if this was really the only life then you're right then it's really not worth it to live but this is not the only life this is just a poo a corridor a small little hallway in comparison to the real life now this little Corridor of 70 years or 100 years or 120 years it's very very short in comparison to the the rest why cuz the rest is eternity like we said before a million years is just the beginning the problem is what that eternity looks like meaning where your Corridor is going to lead to which door it's going to open depends on what you do in this hallway so if you come here with the right mentality and you say okay you know what I have to work I have to collect as many diamonds AKA mitv as I possibly can because to get to the door that I want to get to this it's a very expensive fee it's not it's not free nothing is free if to show up there's a big bouncer he doesn't want you to buy bottles you have to already come with the payment you know the story about H in the old days un like today you have to pay to learn toah today they have to pay you to learn toah like if I paid each person $50 $100 to come learn T the place would have 50,000 people but anyway in the old days you have to pay you have to pay to go learn Tor so the two two giants of the generation Wasa and Aon andon not only were the biggest sages of the generation but they were both converts both of them were converts and they were the two biggest giants of the generation and he used to be a poor man they used to cut wood in town no one really knew him but his name was hakin H the old old h and every day he would cut some wood and half the money he'd spent to eat and finance his life and the other half to go pay for going to learn Torah but one day it was snowing and he couldn't cut the wood he couldn't reach couldn't couldn't succeed and he came to learn in the and back then they had his big bouncer in front of the door he says yeah can I help you goes no I I want to go learn Tora with I want to learn Tora I need some money no no I couldn't cut the wood it didn't work today I couldn't do it he goes okay so to come back when it works no no but I want to learn Tora I got to learn every day I got to learn T it's Friday Shabbat coming in Shabbat coming in I got to learn Torah can't go into Shabbat without knowing any Torah what am I cow I'm sorry sir if I make an exception for you I make exception for everybody I can't do it this is the rule of the Yeshiva you want to come in you have to pay that's when they had value for to he didn't let them in he let couldn't take it he climbed the roof of the building and had glass on top and he laid on the glass listening to the glass giving and the snow is falling on him snow is falling on him you just see snow outside like oh no no I'm not going to Shi today I'm tired my arm hurts my arm hurts my back my back all of a sudden the back what do you mean nothing happened if it was for a baseball game a basketball game or a bar 3:00 in the morning the Party begins H is laying down on a roof of a building listening to sh T while snow is falling on him the next morning the come into the Yeshiva to open the Bessa to pray but they notice that it's much darker today and they look up and see that there is a lot of snow but under the snow there like something peeking that doesn't look like snow and you see it's it's a human being they ran up they climbed the building they took them off and they actually desecrated Shabbat to say his life to Save a Life p shabat goes on hold they lit a fire to save his life when they found out that he was only there to try to learn that Tora and he couldn't afford it the two made them made H their personal talid all day all night they teach him Torah and later on he let became the president of became the himself how sacrifice his life sacrifices life like we said before three things you have to do in order to you have to do self sacrifice to earn Tora we learned from when you're tired at uh 11:00 at night and you don't feel like learning anymore think about h we already learned the land already vomited you out already vomited you out you have to earn your way back how you have to make sure that if you're going to go there there has to be a benefit for hasem to welcome you back but not everybody's supposed to go there now not everybody's supposed to go there right now why if you already have Torah here meaning wherever you are in the world in the America and Canada and wherever you are in the world if you're already from you're already keeping T you're close to hasem at the best level you've ever been The kids are also very close to Hashem the wife is also close to hhm you have Torah you also havea and you have schom bite you'll have it wherever you live why change unless the whole family wants to do it if your wife agrees or the husband agrees with the wife to do it then yeah sure go to Israel try it out but if the wife doesn't agree in moving away moving to is going to create schom issues then why are you moving as far as safety in the times of mashia you have to understand first of all like you said before according to the prophets we've run out of time to make the gah come in a nice way the G is going to come in a difficult way unless there's some miracle but based on the prophets it's not going to come in an easy way meaning that any of the prophecies are negative there's going to be a lot of balagan in the world more than what we have right now one of the possibilities is that the Muslims Ishmael is going to take over the world for 9 months which means that whether you're in Israel or you're here or you're anywhere it's not going to be easy the only thing that's going to protect you at the times of mashia is your Deeds if you are a sadik and you're close to AEM you're glued to him doesn't matter where you are of course there's a higher level for Torah in Israel than here or anywhere in the world if you have that then the rest of what we just said applies but if you're learning great in but your wife wants to divorce you and the kids are going to the beach on Shabbat then obviously you shouldn't go so everything the whole package has to fit on the other hand if you are a rash and you don't keep anything whether you live in America in Canada in Israel or in Gom itself either way you're in trouble is not going to help you as a matter of fact the sins in are worse they're worse for you if you make a sin Ines than you make it outside ofes so the point being is you have to be righteous that's it it's the only thing that's going to save you at times of mashia and those two things are going to save you is what's t t is learning Tora and complying with it means kindness but not kindness like I gave somebody a ride to uh I don't know to the uh doctor okay yes that's kindness but I'm actually I've been trying to finish this article for a while and never finished it I just don't have time and this is actually the part that I'm up to for some reason people think that when kazal says kindness is going to save you at the end of times you know it means that everyone needs to like give each other rights to the or to the you know to the hospital or you know maybe get you your shopping for Shabbat like that's going to save you at the times of mashiach yes it's going to help don't get me wrong it's nice Deeds it's very nice that you're doing it but I hope no one actually believes that giving someone a right is going to save them at the time ofia because if you do you're a and I can't help you that's not actually going to save someone what's going to save what's going to save somebody is overwhelming kindness meaning meaning you're going to save people's Souls you're going to do the highest level of kindness not buying somebody Kal for Shabbat yes it's nice for buying it but if that's all you do as far as kindness and the rest of your neighborhood is still lighting cigarettes on Shabbat and you haven't even helped any one person your kindness is nothing so people have to understand I'm being very blunt here because I don't want anyone to like be disappointed mashia comes and says Listen by the way you have zero kindness what do you mean I bought them bread for Shabbat every week for the last six months okay great good job they had bread but they were still eating it on Shabbat on the beach kindness means saving Souls kindness means helping them get close to Hashem whether they're from or they're not is irrelevant the point is kindness means getting people back on the good list that's what kindness means it's not uh giving people candles for Shabbat yes it's good do that it's definitely going to help you but if you talk about specific from mashia it's a different level of kindness the highest level of kindness the most important one is to support to us support people get back coming back to hasem and I I don't know why people think that they uh I don't know I guess people's nature is to always look for shortcuts it's much easier to give a loaf of bread or ride to the uh store then is to give people M to uh to get them to do chuva I understand but people have to wake up you know you can't be a fool and and actually think that that's what's going to save you at the time of mashia again third we just said you want to have a possibility a remote chance of going to the good one has to be meaning you have to come to this world and expect to work hard expect to work hard I spoke to a rabbi I respect a lot the other day talking about different things we're going through goes what do you think it's going to be easy you think the Satan will just let you do what you want expect a hard life you tell me expect he's somebody's been doing it for 22 years when he says something like that you listen self sacrifice it's not that you want it but you know that you need it cuz that's your does because if you really want to show that you love hem like everyone says no no I want to love hem I want to show I love hem okay this best way to show love hem save his kids save his children obviously you can't be a rash an enemy of hasem while you're saving his kids I mean you technically can be but you also probably need to go to a meno institution too why you're saving everybody else and not actually there's a mishna for people that are mental that try to help other people do chuva but they themselves don't want to do chuva hasem is going to influence them to eventually do chuva why even if you didn't do chuva and you didn't even do it to do chuva but you wanted everybody else to do chuva there's some people in the world like this they like to give CDs they like to bring them to but they still drive on Shabbat in the Mish in Tora says they're going to do eventually Chua why because it's not going to be a good look when all the students are in ganeden but they're teachers in G so hasem is going to influence you to do CH so K is even for point being guys and girls you want miracles do you want to learn serious Tora and get even more miracles you want to be righteous with hem take care of his children stop making your own rules and the reality of it is that if you already want to have the right perspective to this life realize that this life you're here to work I know it's not necessarily the greatest news you ever heard but it's reality the more we know that we came here to work the easier it is for us to actually do the job but the more we live with asot with imagination that we're supposed to have a good time in this world and we supposed to enjoy ourself and have parties and all of the things that people enjoy then it makes it more difficult for us to do what hashm wants us to do because we're thinking that we're supposed to do a and hashm says no no no you're not supposed to do it you're supposed to do B so every time you show him B he like yeah but I don't feel like doing it today it's like yeah but that's the only thing you're supposed to do yeah but I don't feel like doing it okay then whatever else that you're doing other than be is useless it's not going to help your cause but I don't want to do it okay don't do it then can I still go no you understand so the more you realize the more you get it screwed in there really really tight that you came here to work work the easier it becomes and you end up becoming happy by doing it cuz now you know okay not only am I doing what I'm supposed to I'm actually enjoying what I'm doing and then it's hasem then you fall in love with hem the right way what else anything else yeah we were talking about before the it says in whoever doesn't wash his hands and bread it's like he slept with a prostitute again but I also heard somewhere else I don't know where that's I'm asking that is actually the biggest G for p yes for bread can that's why sometimes you see somebody washing their hand with a lot of water instead of using instead of a little bit at a time they actually pour the whole thing on their hand because they want a lot of money but also there's a about that says that someone that didn't do didn't wash their hands ended up eating pig and someone that didn't do ended up murdering so says what do you mean how could it be so it says there two stories in the old days the uh there was no such thing as a kosher restaurant meaning that you couldn't advertise the your kosher uh cuz the grain would uh close the place down or kill you probably so what what they everyone looked the same everyone had tusha everyone had a beard everyone looked like OS bin lad at the same time it didn't everyone's the same so when you go into the restaurant the way they would know whether you're Jewish or not is if you washed your hands if you would if you washed your hands they'd give you kosher food if you washed if you didn't wash your hands they give you T they give you pig they give you whatever so one day this guy comes to the place he doesn't wash his hands he orders some food he gets the food and then at the end he asked the guy can you give me uh to read to do the guy says no wow what happened he goes oh you don't understand what do you do why you doing he goes what do you mean I'm a Jew goes oh no I can't believe it he goes wow what happened goes you know what I just fed you goes what I just fed you pork chops how could you do this R he goes no it's not my fault it's your fault he goes why is it my fault I just came and ordered some food goes yes but the only way I can tell if you're Jewish is if you wash your hands like a regular Jew you didn't wash your hands so I thought you were an Arab so I gave you what the Arabs eat give you donkey so someone who didn't wash their hands first led them to eat pork then the says led to murder how so what one time RAB RAB and RAB come into town and uh in those days when you go into a hotel usually what you would do you carry all your money with you but you'd give the money to the uh owner of the hotel to put it in a safe so the owner had a weird name and RAB didn't like his name I don't like his name I'm not going to give him my money well what what do you care just name you give him your money do what you want I'm not giving him my money I don't trust him no problem like today where you don't do something everybody gets on your case until you do what they want because they don't like that uh you're not doing what they want back then they respected your choice so they stayed there for a few days after a few days the rabbis come back they said listen uh B you know for the hotel can we have our money says what money what do you mean what money the money we gave you when we came in she didn't give me any money what any money I gave you gave you money we signed we this he goes I don't like the guy that hired me the first one of the companies that I worked for when uh I told them uh yeah I told them listen where's the where's the $4,000 that you said that you were going to pay me you know for two months he goes what money I told him what do you mean the money that you said you're going to give me goes do we have a contract I said no I just trusted your word he goes I don't remember that I told you that and he was your friend friend friends like that who needs enemies so anyway so he tells the the the owner of the hotel tells these sikim what money okay we're going to take you to bed take you to court goes take me to court whatever you want how you going to prove it again you're Jewish how you going to prove it how you going to prove they took the money didn't take a money there's no cameras so they go to bed but these are sages these are people that're able to revive the dead they're not stupid so they're just waiting for the they're waiting for the hint from Hashem of how to solve this problem so they come to court they're all waiting and they see this rash comes to court and they notice that he has on his uh you know when you have a beard and you don't watch your you know clean yourself food gets stuck on the hair so they notice that he has white beans like remains of white beans on his beard so they sent two the sikim they say okay we're going to go stay here we'll send somebody to the house so one of theik goes to the house to his house R's house knocks on the door and the wife opens the door he goes yeah listen listen your husband told me to uh give me the money that he stole from those two uh those two people give me the money he's in a lot of trouble at the court cuz they you know he admitted that he did it and he has to give the money back or they're going to kill him and he said just to make sure that you know that what I'm telling you is true he said the code was that you gave him white bean soup this morning so the wife runs you know she's nervous the husband's going to get killed you know she doesn't know what's going on and he said yeah she did give him white bean soup this morning she goes she gets the money from the safe she gives it to him thank you thank you very much thank you very much they go away they go back to the court and when it time comes time to for their turn to go see the judge say no your honor we're going to drop the case and they leave so this Rashad thinks that he won like ah I knew they couldn't I knew they couldn't mess with me there's no proof he comes home he's celebrating and he sees his wife like hey honey you're okay yeah of course I'm okay why wouldn't I be okay she goes no no I was just making sure that you got everything on time he goes what do you mean everything goes no no I got I got the hint it was such a good hint you're so smart honey smart what you never called me smart for 25 years of married what smart cuz no that you gave me the code he goes what code that you told that old man that came here that I gave you white bean soup to morning that's why to give him the money he got so mad when he found out what she did he ended up killing her why did why did the you know white bean soup because if he would have done if he would have washed his hands and his lips after he at like a normal Jew he wouldn't have the white bean stuck on his beard so because he didn't do he ended up killing somebody what about the part where it say if you do what Hashem says then that means that you're paying your dues because you know that it's from him when you don't do what he says then you're obviously violating what he says and you're taking something that doesn't belong to you just like for example it says kazal says any person that benefits in any way in this world without a blessing is like he stole from Hashem same concept with my it says that if you're not going to uh treat treat my meal that I gave you with respect by washing your hands at the End by doing my like you're treating my food like somebody treats a zon somebody treats a z they just leave her they don't uh write they don't call they treat like it's supposed to be I paid you your dues go away so you're treating my food my meal like someone treats a zon anything else I know he's got at least a little few more questions I don't want to keep here everyone for another 5 hours we can I can stay for another 5 hours good questions anybody else has anything else after I shut off the tape you could still continue amen [Music] [Applause] [Music]
