The mouth was created in order to praise the mouth was created in order to sanctify yourself. A person has to know that when they use this holy vessel called the mouth in order to do something that's against Hashem, then they are instead of sanctifying a kadosh's name, they're desecrating a kadosh's name. And says that the only reason why everything exists in the world was in order to sanctify name because he's the king of kings. We're here to serve him, not him to serve us. So much so that if you sanctified Hashem's name today, good. But if a person did not sanctify name today, there's no point to create him. We have to find a way to sanctify name every day. So if a person uses the only tool that you could have to sanctify name, but to do the opposite, then it's in essence, it's much more than a sin. It's antithetical to the entire creation. It defeats the purpose purpose of even being created. But most importantly, there's a mitzvah in the Torah that specifically says that from a thing of lies, stay away from. It doesn't only say to stay away from to not do lies, but rather to stay away from it. Because even if a person is not a liar and a person does not lie himself, but their friends or their co-workers or their boss, they're all liars. The people that they associate themselves with, they're all liars. The Torah says you're going to be infected by it. Also, you work for a liar and that they're a liar and that they're cheating customers. Guess what? You'll be infected by it. Even if you yourself are not lying. So, for example, if a person, go back to the same business that I've talked about several times, the merchant cash advance business, which is a evil, inherently evil from beginning to end. There is nothing good that ever could come out of that business. That means that even if you it's not just a broker that is lending money with high interest to people that's in trouble. It's not just the owner of the cash advance company. It's even the secretary that answers the phone. She is she's a friend of a corrupt person. She's part of the lying system. So to stay away from lies it means don't be part of lies. So if you that let someone lying whether it's in business or it's in anything else don't be part of it. And the more a person wants to stick to the truth, the more will send him the truth.
