[Music] we're back to our Tuesday night in Aventura era of mashia series The Series has been uh most popular of all um at least uh these last several weeks lots of people have uh uh start stopped watching the news and instead just watched the series not only because it's more interesting but also uh the uh the news repeats itself whereas the has each time and you're really seeing everything that's happening in the world today whether it be the religious world or non-religious world uh a lot of the things that we're seeing in the world today was already um mentioned by our prophets thousands of years ago also mentioned by our sages such as ra Shalom and his re theim uh nearly 100 years ago and uh on one end it's extraordinary uh how beautiful our toah is but on another end it's a little discouraging that we continue to fail in learning the lessons from our forefathers even though it's one of the is to follow the footsteps of our forefathers follow the footsteps and the lessons from our fathers and uh unfortunately as a nation we have not been able to do that uh at the best possible level because we keep failing the same exact thing now uh tonight we're going to talk uh more about the uh cause of the constant failure that the r Westman has been uh talking about over the last couple of weeks which is the uh Shepherds uh but with some new insights and some new Clues as to how to spot a uh false Shepherd that uh he so warns us about and how to spot a uh righteous Shepherd a good one um of course there's new problems in the world that I'll tell you about unfortunately I have to be the news for that too um but uh also a little bit of good news too so tonight sh will be for for Leana S Mercedes S and um benam Talia but s um and all of will have if I forget people from time to time I apologize but you're in my mind I just don't remember um the uh the book here era of mashia which I remind you again is on our website to download for free uh has been really uh an exceptional liut for me personally even though I've learned it before it's a um every time you go over the or either the uh sages from you know a couple thousand years ago even recent sages there's always more to learn and especially when you delve into the words that they chose why they said this how they said this and also as you continue to learn more and more you end up connecting a lot more dots and uh but at the same token Thea that gives us with no limit has uh also been exceptional just simply because you see the world around you and how it's changing and what's going on in the world how frustrated people are with uh with the current situation whether it be from the uh financial crisis Health crisis or even the uh religious crisis many people are contacting us right now new new stories new people that are newly inspired you get to learn you know some things about them of uh how did they get to this place in in you know in the first place why do they have to be inspired and uh to my surprise many of them are not coming um just from secular backgrounds like I did and perhaps some of you did many of them also are coming from FR backgrounds they used to be religious they grew up religious but uh they uh got discouraged by these false Shepherds I have a uh mother uh contacted me a few days ago and this unfortunately is not the only story who told me that when she was homeschooling her kids you know I know her already for a few years and she was homeschooling her own kids and she wouldn't uh have enough praise to say about her kids how righteous they were how great they were doing but then she decided to sign them up to schools and the only school that was available uh where she lives was a modern orthodox school and she figured okay the rabbis you know seem like nice people and uh the school is well built and put together so she signed up the kids and you know if if there's anything missing or perhaps we need to be a little more stringent whether it be modesty or this or that we'll fix it at home well unfortunately just the other day she comes back and she tells me that uh her son who's been going to this modern Orthodox school has declared himself an atheist and I say how does somebody go from being Ultra religious zealous for AEM when he's homeschooled to go to school and becoming an atheist how does such a thing happen and she starts explaining to me how the rabbis confused him and then they didn't know how to answer the uh the questions that he had and before you know it he was lost now if this was the only story I probably wouldn't even tell you probably wouldn't even tell you but unfortunately this is happening way too often and as I've said before and I Know M has been saying for years right now the uh the gap between authentic Orthodox Judaism and everything else is only getting greater now not because of the name there are plenty of fakers within the Orthodox Community uh which I've discussed before but I'm talking about what Judaism is supposed to be versus what it's become whether they called Masti or they call it Mas or they call it a uh you know uh open Orthodoxy or modern Orthodoxy or some type of Orthodoxy there's also a new one uh leid Leed Judaism which is by the way Christianity just but it's called Le Judaism and it's Messianic Judaism which is Christianity there a lot of things called Judaism lots of them the gap between authentic Judaism and everything else is getting greater and greater in some aspects but by the looks of it you won't be able to tell like if you look at the people you won't be able to tell so much with the exception let's say for example some people are like for example the modern Orthodox they're very very stringent on being a modest very very stringent they have to be like all the way like the rabbi next to my house he has a Sho the size of 10 of these buildings his wife walks around less modest than everybody else she's she very stringent on being immodest no and no either nothing it's the rabbi's wife just imagine the K you know they have a uh there that's like a fishnet a fish net you could see you could see less through that than the they have but they call them you know Orthodox they call them Orthodox or modern or whatever they call themselves the point being is that you cannot you're not going to be able to tell by the look so much because there are Christian organizations like this laped or Messianic Judaism where they have adopted the cish look many of them so you're going to see a lot of them walking around peot and some of them with nice big hat and the Str and everything they're going to look beard beard goes for free so everybody has it but they're not even Jewish they're not even Jewish and there's some people that they pretend to be in a process of conversion on their own by themselves in the middle of Montana or something in the middle of nowhere they're next door neighbors a horse and a cat and maybe a frog but on the internet they start giving shim they give sh they give lectures they want to give people you ask them oh not Jewish the way it look so the looks are going to confuse you looks are going to confus you can't tell by the looks same concept goes with certain people certain speakers certain rabis certain K sometime I've met some of the most wonderful people that dress just basically normal people you know they have you know a uh normal clothes they don't look like they're uh they don't look like they're the most religious but you look you talk to them five minutes you know this person has that you're jealous of already how much they have you ask them a few questions they give you 75 different answers because of how much they learn so the looks are going to be deceiving uh and the only way you're really going to know whether someone is an authentic Jew before you know as things you know continue to progress is simply by their actions which means that we're going to we're at a point now we're not going to be able to trust anyone at face value they you used to be able to look at someone within five feet if he's five feet from you you could already know who's this guy where he's about what family belongs to what's the tradition there and so on and so forth and you can rely on it or run away from it thear says that was used to be a former gangster before he became he wouldn't talk to just anyone anyone he talked to everybody after he left the conversation everyone would come to that person and start giving them money to do business with him so why because he knew who all the gangsters were he knew all the criminals so he knew who to stay away from anyone he talked to had to be a sadik so in those days you can tell if you had in previous years you could tell simply by the way people looked today it's very difficult very very difficult to tell how people look because there's just so much falsehood even after first impression I uh always you know want to give people the benefit of Doubt when I meet them you know especially since you know when you first meet somebody for some reason or another they feel like they need to give you their resume of mitv you know so you met them hi how are you you know in the business world the way it was is Hi how are you what do you do like why do I care what you do I don't care but people ask that what do you do why cuz they're sizing you up how much money you make how much money I make who has a bigger house what do you do what do you do where do you go where do you go where do you vacation where do you vacation where do you Drive do you drive do you have a driver stupid questions like that that's the business World in general fla world but that's what it is but in the uh religious World it seems it's a little bit similar same questions what do you do what do you do but they also add something like this they start telling you about their MIT oh yeah that's true yeah yeah I pray Nets over there why do I care am I coming to pray with you why do I care when you pray did I ask you what time I pray when do you pray why do you care you want to come with me because I'm there like why do you care where I pray oh oh yeah yeah that's true you know I built it you want to build another one you want to donate to our like what's the what's what's the Naina here why you tell me what you build what you did to telling me all the donations they made and what kind of mitv did they do and who they learn and what they learn and people tell you a lot about their mitv and it's a uh obnoxious but it also comes from a little bit of insecurity uh uh a need to impress um but nonetheless also Pride now it's not necessarily a bad thing to do good things obviously you need to do good things but when you feel the need to report to people you have to ask yourself why am I doing these good things so I have something to tell people oh because I generally want to do good things so many times you meet certain people whether they be rabbis or not and they give you their resume about they had this KLA and that Kayla and this and that and everything sounds good until at some point or another there's a moment of truth and then you see who this person really is usually it has to do with one of a few things one popularity when popularity is at risk reputation people people are willing to sell their mother father brothers and neighbors for the sake of popularity for the sake of reputation it's really disgusting to be honest with you and the crowd is used to it so much that their first threat is that if you're not going to do what I say then I'm not going to watch you anymore I'm not going to go there anymore and people care second money everything I just sold sold already or double it second marriage they sell the second marriage second parents second adops everything else people won't do everything for money it's the craziest thing in the world I had one time a guy tell me uh he was going to this uh Rabbi this Ki and so on and uh the rabbi asked them what do you do and uh he says oh I do such and such oh maybe you could help me out that's what you do you can help me out what do you charge oh I charge I don't know $300 to do this job you know what do it for me do it for me you do it for me so yeah I need the extra money why not so he does the job takes him a little while it's not easy work and he comes back to the RAB goes e go I finish the job Rabbi sees to work oh very good not you do great work thanks so the guy like you're welcome thanks thanks okay I'll see you tomorrow you know you what happens usually in like you know in the world you work you know thans thanks and there's usually an exchange something else with the tanks I don't really need the tanks I just need money I can pay rent but it didn't happen so he figured you know the guy was like you know nice kid he was like okay maybe he forgot or maybe uh he doesn't have so give it to me tomorrow two three four five days nothing happened so you know you know the guy was struggling a little bit so he said uh I'm just going to ask him if he for got or something he think he gave it to me so he says Rabbi listen remember uh that job that you asked me to do for you yeah uh I told you it's going to be $300 oh wait you you you want to charge me I thought you just wanted to help the Sho I thought you just wanted to give something good back back to the sh I I didn't know you're going to charge me that's a and that's stealing by the way that Rabbi has to come back in a g unless that t forgives him that's stealing and it happens many times it happens many times for what for a few dollars when it comes to money people people do the strangest things in the world that's number two popularity money third I'm sure all of you can guess women when it comes to women all look everybody wants to be popular with the girls even though he's married with 16 kids he wants to be popular with the girls he wants the girls to like him he wants to have a sh Just For Girls Just for women he wants all the women around the world that he doesn't even know to like him and press like on his Facebook he wants them to buy his books he wants them to attend his lectures he wants to be popular with the women and he does a lot of stupid things based on that now what do all three of these things have in common with the Shepherds that has been talking about everything these are some of the motivating factors that Inspire the Shepherds to do their wicked work and continues after telling us that told the prophet benadam I need you to know go to these shepherds that have been responsible for my sheep responsible for my children and tell these Shepherds that the only reason they did not do chuva the only reason my sheep are not completely religious completely completely and it's only because of the Shepherds it's not because of the environment it's not because of the weather it's not because of the poverty it's not because of the difficulties it's not because of any of the other things it's only because of the Shepherds and tell the Shepherds I'm going to take revenge against them now if a person tells you watch your back sometimes you want to make fun of it just I can't see you nothing watch your back who are you you're a human being put your pants one leg at a time just like me unless he has a gun they say behind his back but reality is human being big deal if God tells you watch your back it's too late and that's what the prophet told all of the wicked Shepherds sadly these Wicked Shepherds continue to reincarnate in every generation as the says the the have been one of the original creations of the world and the reason why wrote the Torah 974 Generations before he created the world is he knew that the world canot survive without the Torah for that long because the people would be too Wicked in order to survive and even having the oral Torah wasn't enough and he had to destroy the world at least once with the generation of Noah but needless to say all of those Wicked had to be distributed throughout all of the generations and the says and confirms that's the they keep coming back in every generation there's always going to be and is not always going to be who you think it's not always going to be Stalin and Hitler it's not always going to be the Communist it's not always going to be the the Obamas of the world or the Saddam Hussein of the world it's not always going to be them in fact in the end of days one of the symbolic differences between the era of mashiah and all of the other times that we had throughout the last several thousand years the re misat says is that in this round the main enemy is going to be the that are Jewish people now Jewish alic as far as their mother's Jewish and so on but ideologically and spiritually obviously far far removed but some of them will come to you in a form of a lefty liberal Jew that hates the Torah like this sh uh journalist news anchor in Israel his name wasn leim his entire career is built on making fun of religious people if it wasn't for religious people he would be fired already long ago or other clowns that are like him in Israel in America whether it be the New York Times and uh the uh cnns of the world or different political figures that sadly are Jewish or it's going to come to you in the form of a so-called spiritual leader a rabbi like this one uh Rabbi that uh recently he uh he had a uh Temptation what Temptation somebody told told them if you could take care of this case and find a way for this woman to get married again we'll get you will give you a job at the meaning the biggest what's the job look this woman got married soon after she got married her husband went into a coma now alic she can't get divorced why cuz divorce has to the G has to be given by the husband he can't give her a g if he's in a coma so she has to she's pretty much stuck so everybody feels bad which we do too but is who knew this when he made when he told us this is what the is supposed to be you know that This Woman's going to exist and other women like her are going to exist that they can't get remarried and so on and they end up spending 20 30 40 50 years with somebody they can't even be with either of medical reasons or because the guy ran away and so on and so forth it's a very very sad scenario but nonetheless knew this when he put this in the Tor so she cannot get a get she cannot get divorced which means she cannot be with another guy and even though her husband is a for lack of a better word the translation from Hebrew is he's a plant meaning can't move can't speak can't nothing uh that's what they called that's in English they say it's coma now this uh superhero wanted to find a way K what's the K says there's two reasons why this woman is free to go number one the uh woman was only agreed to marry this guy based on him being alive so the fact that he went to a coma shortly after it's meaning it's not a part of the original agreement so therefore the the marriage is n and void complete hogwash and then on top of that the bed his bed we're going to take control we're going to take theba as we're the owners of the kba and we're allowing her to get divorced now she didn't marry the bed though she married the guy but no he thought this is a many of that found out about this went against them he completely completely ignored everything completely distorted the what was his reward he got a job at the this is one of the big ranim in the world just this past weekend there was a uh tour event that was part of and someone told him listen this Rabbi is in this hotel maybe you want to meet him he's very connected politically this and not says shom I don't want to see him I don't want to meet him and I don't want to ever even hear about him such people like this like this yeah political Corrections though political connections the guy may get you a job at the government is be big up but most people they don't care about how this guy got the job you get an opportunity to to meet up I heard you very important Rabbi completely ignoring the fact that he murdered the T in order to get the job that he has this happens unfortunately regularly when it comes to popularity people are willing to sell the to off for nothing when it comes to money people are willing to sell the Torah in this case it's all three popularity money and the girl why because what happens is if you come out with a like this what happened to him after that became very popular look see what a real we have cuz all the ignoramuses in the world they don't know that he just destroyed the Torah oh what a real we have that's the way to help these poor women that can't get remarried see he's a genius he's a this he's a that that's like calling uh Hitler a genius for eliminating certain diseases by simply killing the people nowman says in the uh section of the same part section 13 says in a gener eration in which the son of David comes meaning the generation of mashia the face of the people will be as that of the face of a dog this he's quoting a very famous from page 49b and also page 90 9A now he's going to give us the commentary on what does it mean many have delved into this and have giving it new insights of how you see the generation of the mashiah is the generation of the face of the face of the generation is the face of a dog one time I uh showed you guys a uh that scientifically it's also true where many people tend to look like they're dogs if you get a head shot of the dog head shot of the people they look alike it's unbelievable strange but unbelievable another aspect of it is that a dog has no manners whatsoever has no shame whatsoever and does This Thing everywhere the generation today they do their business anywhere and I don't just mean they do their business as far as the bathroom business I mean all all business all business is open for business a is no shame whatsoever some someone we leaving the house today to run an errand and some woman just came into my parking lot and came out and you know soon as she came out I saw that she she she has the outfit of a dolphin so my wife like well yes yes lady yes she's like can I give you this flag she G me like a United States flag or something like that no no we don't need a flag okay and she just St standing there like a whale I she thought maybe I throw her fish or something my wife got so upset she wanted to yell at her like how do you walk around like this how do you walk around like this she says if we weren't in a hurry I would have yelled at her you have shame to walk around like this but that's to her now to the woman she didn't do a single thing wrong in fact she think she did a nice thing I was offering him a nice thing I came over there to give them something that what's the problem what the way you're dressed yeah it's brand new this shirt cost me $390 what shirt what shirt you're wearing a shirt no this is dken y this is Versace this is Bachi this is all types of cheese well you should get a at least half off cuz the shirt is half she thinks she is dressed to impress and most women walking around today with what the previous generation called underwear most women that walk around today think that they're doing nothing wrong by walking around showing somewhere between 50 to 80% of their skin they think there's nothing wrong with it and today it's so Shameless that it's not even a matter of attraction or being lustrous or anything it's anyone anyone like I mean as a logically speaking if let's say someone is just uh you know so beautiful and wants to show their stuff to the whole world because they're they want to I don't know get hired for some job that's the oldest profession in the world then okay but when you're talking about someone that literally just left the zoo her and free willia are best friends and she's walking around like that you don't understand like where did you get the mirror where did you get the mirror that told you that you could wear that you should get a refund and how many mirrors are there by the way because how do you fit where did you get this stuff but you're you're laughing it's true it's 100% I'm just saying what's in your heads also you don't understand what's going on with these people and they walk around M unbelievable now this has always been absurd I've always found this absurd my whole life but it's more absurd today than ever because you're seeing some of this also in a Jewish World you've seen this in a non-jewish world You' seen this in a religious World You' seen this in a non religious World in fact it's come to the point where if you are modest the way the Tora says people tell you you look weird I've had quite a few young young women tell me listen uh I don't know I I I got a whole new wardrobe and my friends were shocked said why are they shocked well because they said I look strange I said why cuz you have clothes on that's strange to them they should try it but that's the thing if you don't have a clear understanding of what's appropriate and what's not the foolishness around you could easily confuse you now now if you're going to come to the the rabbis you're going to be disappointed why tells us that the Generation generation of mashia this connect to the rabbis wasman says it's a characteristic of the dog to run before its master and it would seem that it goes on its own free will the master following in obedience to the wishes of the dog that's what it seems like guy's walking his dog but the dog's running ahead of him and it looks like the guy is actually following the dog but in reality we know that the reverse is true the owner goes where he likes and the dog while preceding him obeys his whim should the master choose another Direction straight away the dog turns also and again proceeds to run ahead very simple people walk around irresponsibly with a no leash because they think that their dog is everybody's dog and they walk around and a dog runs in front of them now they don't care about the fact that other people are scared of dogs or their dog may be scary they walk dog's running now it looks like the dog is running the show cuz the guy's following him but in reality if the guy decides to stop and turn around little rusty is going to turn around and follow him also right that's what happens so even though it looks like the dog is really leading the show it's really the master now in normal years of wasman continues when the people listened to the ruling of the Torah theim the sages led the way theim decided the direction to be taken and the people walked in their footsteps the rabbi said the people did that's how it was for over 3,000 years even during the world times there were always some people that were religious that were good Rabbi says they do that's how it's always been but in the Years approaching the coming of msia something's going to change what's change the sovereignty of the Torah will be assured the masses will choose their way as well as they can and their leaders run ahead of them like the dog before the master the name of which is who is quoting here he says that throughout all of the years theim the sages the they led the way they said okay we're going to start a community here everybody came from now on no more no more using the the milk of the only why we have enough money to do it and so on and so forth which by the way as a side note is a misunderstanding that many people had and I had myself for for some time that the by m Feinstein that you're allowed to uh have the milk of the non-jews as long as it's a kosher I always thought for some time that uh yeah as long as it's kosher you could have it even though it's raised by the G and so on it's supervised by rabbis it's kosher it's kosher no cuz said they lowed he only said that he only said that if there's no way to get meaning if you have if you go to a supermarket if you go to a supermarket and you have two choices you have kosher milk by some non-jewish company and you have you are obligated to BU is now if there's no is but the other milk is kosher Allowed no problem no problem but if you have access to have to buy it have to get that so when ra MOS Feinstein said it people initially understood clearly what I just said and that's what they did as time passed all of a sudden they forgot the second part forgot the second part that yeah no the the the other milk is okay you could just buy it whenever you want even if you have because I GRE like this one like half the price and this and that and that's what happens says throughout all of history the gim ran the show and the people followed but in the generation before mashia the Torah will be embarrassed the Torah will be ignored the Torah will be disgraced because the masses will choose their way as well as they can and the leaders run ahead of them like a dog meaning that the rabbis of this generation look like they're leading they look like they're leading just came out with a new book oh wow who who came out with book oh R keski came out with a new book wow wow B finishes the entire my life I'll finish as much he does in one year Al yeah rki rki you sayki people start shiver but then you say but you know uh lady you you follow AFI yeah best best biggest Rabbi in the world okay you know kki said that you're not allowed to wear a wig right yeah but I have my own rabbi wait hold on what you just said for the last half hour you gave no end to the amount of compliment Toki but the second I told you theki says that the wigs right now since most of them are coming from India he wrote a not allowed wigs not allowed CU they're coming from India and that's after there's a video of him that we publicized also of him saying in his own words you don't even need the writing you can see his own word saying it any wig that looks like real hair is forbidden you said kki that's who you hold by right it's the biggest Rabbi in the world right no yeah but I have my local Rabbi but the re the RAB said it's okay what does that have to do with anything first of all he didn't second what does have to do with anything you just said how come he's only when it's not Rel living to you so as big as R kvki is as big ASI is as big as the is as big as all of the rabbis that we have left in the world are the reality is we don't have any Unity whatsoever people are simply making them look like they're the leaders but in reality doing whatever they want you have entire Safari communities they say no who do you your Safar yeah yeah yeah so you go by R yeah 100% so how come almost 90% of the women in your community are wearing wigs say it's not allowed yeah yeah but we have a know what there was another Rabbi said it is allowed yeah but you just said that you follow Rya you said you follow you said he's theu of the last few hundred years so why ises it when it came to this you don't follow why are you talking like that why being so aggressive why you doing what's that doing anything I'm asking you a question and that's what happens all the time unfortunately told us something that we've known All Along The Generation before mashia the Giants of the generation theim of the generation unfortunately going to be treated like dogs dogs that look like they're leading the way but in reality it's just full of looks the Masters are going to be the people that have the money the people that are in the Kila the community people going to do whatever they want you tell them a big Rabbi just came out with a book say okay I'll buy it three months later so what do you think of that book now I didn't get a chance to read it but you bought it why don't you read it I have it when I get a chance so what are you reading now not so not not not so much I'm busy with work Al you're reading nothing but you have 800 books in your house so why don't just open a library books are to read not to have as a collection they're not Furniture but people like to write by books why so when you go to the house they caness look yeah see my collection collection see my all these now says there rabis in our generation he's talking about 90 years ago there rabbis in our generation who are drawn after the will of the congregation striving to show how sociable they are and descending from the peak to the deths he says there are rabbis in his generation hasem is if he was alive today I think he would rip his clothes and just say that's it kadish on the entire nation he says in his generation he says there's some rabbis what are these rabbis they are not treated like theim that you know you make pretend like you follow this Rabbi so no no the rabbis that are even worse the rabbis themselves are acting like dogs what kind of dog dog that's trying to please its Master do whatever you want to to I'll get I'll get I'll get I'll get I'll get it what else you want me to do Master what else you want me to do want me to do a Chase my tail for 3 years okay I'll Chas my tail when I'm going to jump I'll jump when I'm going to sneeze I'll sneeze want me play dead I'll play dead say the rabis like that to try to please the generation get popularity by so showing themselves that how sociable they are going to all of these bit every day there's a newv they show up to every event every day there's a new wedding they show up to every event now yeah that you're a sociable Rabbi and you go to a wedding every day and a in a in a Mitzvah every day when do you have time to study to though that's the question cuz that's part of the rabbi role if you're going to a party every day when do you study when you play Rabbi where's the rabbi part cuz going to the parties you don't have to be a rabbi you could just be a member of the Kila but if you're at a new party every day where's the rabbi role one time somebody came to and he helped helped him a lot and he said Your Blessing worked we had a son I just want to say I'm sorry I don't want to disrespect the but since the uh my uh the other my helped us a lot I don't want it to be any or anything so I told him to be the S I just hope that is not offended laughs and he says people think they're doing me a favor by making me a Sak for their Brit of their kids all they're doing for me is causing me who wants to go to these Brit I want to learn to but some today you don't have many of those today you have Rabbi go to Brit every day breakfast Brit lunch mitvah wedding that's for dinner every day every they have never have to buy food why socially in the business world we used to call networking networking what do you do in a certain business you want to build your business there two ways of building a business One oldfashioned Way cold calling call a bunch of strangers and convince them to do business with you very few people are willing to do it and even fewer succeed very very hard business the other way is the in my opinion the sell out way it works over time for some people but in my opinion it's complete waste of time what is it networking networking what's networking every day you go somewhere else you go to a bar you go to some event you go to the networking events and what do you do you just look for friends cuz cuz your friends are your customers oh what do you do what do you do what do you do what do you do exchange business cards and you don't know that he's he's he's starving but he looks like he's got three piece suit on and you're starving also but both do you think that you're going to feed each other neither one of you have money to close off the week but you think that you're going to pay each other's bills and both of you pretend and every day they go to a different event and in the afteron and they go social life and they go to different fancy schmancy restaurants not because they can afford the food they're living off of debt why cuz hopefully some rich guy is going to sit next to them and they could network network now in a business world when you act like a loser like this fine whatever what else you going to do but when you're a rabbi and you act like this we have ourselves a problem there are literally countless rabbis that I know that spend their life constantly networking with the Kaa they're at somebody's house every day for some reason there for either some type of event or some type of consulting or some type of this or some type of whatever they're constantly somewhere now you ask them basic questions they don't know and that's the reason you don't have any time to learn toah if you want to be a socialite in today's world it's very acceptable if you're a rabbi that's socialite but in the real world in a Torah world it's completely unacceptable the last thing you want to do is socialize with people if you want to be a leader but that's what R wasman is saying already in his time there were countless rabbis that were chasing after the congregation showing them that they are regular Regular People the very sociable and take all of their learning all of the Torah that they had and Yeshiva and all the things all the good stuff that they've acquired for the first 20 or 30 years of their life learning says from their Peak they go to the bottom of the barrel why you don't learn to over extended period of time you start forgetting stuff you start disconnecting from it the you had a 20 21 year old young Rabbi by the time you're 30 years old old you forgot what it means even the guy was in Cola number one in class 35 years old he forgot that he's supposed to go to aedine instead of civil court these examples are not made up these are real examples 20 years old top of the class became a young Rabbi few people believed in him gave him a gave him a 35 years old had a difference with a different with another Jew okay I'm going to take you to civil court but Jews don't go to civil court unless it's a crime that the law has to be involved like rape and murder and things of that nature that you have to go to the law but when it comes to civil cor money things like that you have to go to going to a civil cor is which the for it only begins at death not to go to a civil court every knows this but the rabbi forgot why money's involved money's involved why forgot to learn forgot to learn and that's what happens when you spend too much time with the people and not enough time leading them the says that the generation before mashia is explained in such a way where when you throw a stone at a dog it'll immediately attack the stone and bite the stone instead of biting the person that's throwing it now this generation you have a very unique situation right now we were very very confident as a people as a species at how things were going four months ago financial situation the best it's ever been most people were making a decent living most people were had jobs unemployment rates were relatively low in the western world and even around the world convenience was practically normal whether it's a convenient car that turns on the station that you want in the radio as soon as you turn it on or the seat realigning as soon as you sit on it or your coffee being made at a certain time already pre-programmed ahead or your temperature of your house adjusts as soon as you walk in convenience very normal or the second you want something all you got to do is press a button and it arrives to your house within 24 hours convenience became very normal financial situation became very normal everything was good everything was normal done then comes Corona within a matter of weeks the whole world shuts down something that most people have never even read about you know needless to say seen and people are still trying to figure out what to do do we go back to work do we stay at home is it worse is it better are they going to get a cure do we even need a cure is Bill Gates behind this or is it his partner maybe it's Steve Jobs coming back from the dead maybe it's the 5G somehow coming back into human form because people saw it terminated to too many times and they think that a uh an internet uh uh Tower can turn into a vicious monster somehow every single conspiracy under the sun has come out over the last few months people have no clue what to do now that's the rock all of this is the rock instead of addressing the rock we should be addressing who threw the rock who brought Corona why do we have Corona why do we have so much cancer why do we have so much other disease why do we have an unemployment rate that no one has seen in the last 100 years 40 million people got fired just in America alone most of them not going to get rehired any time soon why is it coming back again even worse why is everybody so scared no one's asking any of these questions everybody is focused on Corona financial situation this that the now had we had good leaders that tell us don't worry so much about Corona worry about who brought Corona don't worry so much about your financial crisis worry about who caused your financial crisis don't worry so much about all of these different things that are rods and rocks worry about who brought them to the world if you had thousands of rabbis telling this to the people get guess what we would be in much better shape today but unfortunately we don't what do we have instead I'll give you a couple of examples of what we have instead said people want to be popular people want to be sociable so how are rabbis today being sociable how are they being popular about a week ago this team of called one for Israel which I've spoken to you about in the past this is Israeli Christian missionaries probably the most aggressive missionaries in the world unfortunately successful and unfortunately no end to their budget they have a very different approach than most Christians have had in history in that unlike the Christians of the yester year that simply killed a bunch of Jews that stopped but then now for the last let's say 40 50 Years Christian missionaries would approach the Jewish people by pretty much sneaking into their neighborhoods trying to convince them that they don't know something trying to convince them that some that died 2,000 years ago is really the Messiah he's really this he's really that and confusing a bunch of ignorance because that's how their religion is built based on ignorance they started with ignorant illiterate people and it's mostly that's who they're recruiting today unfortunately they succeeded in recruiting almost a half a million Jews in the last 25 years to convert to Christianity is now that was the approach was sneaky nice they gave some money they uh helped you with your bills paid your tuition whatever you needed just keep coming to the meetings that's what the approach was and these te this team of has a different approach what's their approach destroying Judaism by making it look absolutely ugly in everybody's eyes just like thear says and that at time of Mia the righteous the S the suim are the people that are so righteous they so that they're able to count the letters of the Tor in their head they know where everything in the Tor is are going to be despised and that's what these people are doing how are they doing it coming out with aggressive videos attacking rabbis saying certain things orar that say certain things or certain verses that say certain things that they are distorting in such a way where they're not telling you the true meaning of it they're telling you what it looks like so recently this group of took short 5 10 second clips of probably a half a dozen or a dozen speakers strong speakers raizi being one of them R gizi another one R shaulov and a few others I don't remember and they took four or five second Clips where these rabbis were actually reading off or certain things in the Torah that talked about IM immorality IM modesty and things of that nature and how a woman is obviously disgraced she's a disgrace to herself when she's dressed like this but they didn't explain all of that and they made a video of this one after another so now of course a bunch of rabbis frim being one of them uh the organization ad and a few other rabis came out with response videos to show the beauty of how we how Judaism in a toraat treats women better than any other religion in the world and so on and so forth but nonetheless the damage was already done now if you are a decent Rabbi you speak against the missionaries right if you're are a little scared of your own shadow you don't speak against them just stay quiet but support the rabbis that are support the rabbis that are being you know going against and so on right what are rabbis in Florida doing what are rabbis that are fakers looking for popularity doing they're coming out with a different video video says you know what that video with those rabbis spoke about women like that I'm rebuking them they're wrong for saying that they're going against their own and supporting the missionaries because you don't understand is is so holy she's so great those Rabbi should have never compared them to a cow those Rabbi should have never said that they're going to get death penalty those rabis what do you mean tah is saying it the Torah is saying it not the rabbi's reading no but how am I going to become popular with the ladies if I don't say no ladies I'm your man I support you do whatever you want who are we I best yet who are we to judge women and what what clothes they're wearing what do you mean who we the judge we're not judge we're just telling you Al is if you're not a modest woman you're not going to gunen how about that for modesty how about that for for for for for judgment if you're not a modest woman don't even plan to go to ganeden don't pack your back nothing why it's all going to get burned in your department give it to somebody they could use it don't bring a pillow don't bring any covers don't bring nothing if you're not if you're not mod don't bring nothing why they're going to burn everything that's not a judge that's a reality you play with fire you get burned that's a reality it's not judging but this clown and other clowns like him they want to be popular with the ladies what they do they go against their own people so when someone comments on their video and says to this particular person but Rabbi these holy rabbis are reading from the Z they're reading from thear they're not making this stuff up they're speaking against immodesty and immorality and into marriage what do you say about it he says to them yes I understand understand they're saying it but there's a way to say it in a way of Love who are we to judge we're not in their place this is our rabbis but that's what we have we have a situation where rabbis are looking to be popular so they don't care about teaming up with the Christians the same Christians that are making fun of the Torah now if that's not enough if you remember a couple of weeks ago I told you about a idiot from uh New York who happens to be a rabbi that brought a pastor to his community in New York City right well apparently he's not alone kabad wants to join him kabad in Atlanta it has an event a remarkable story of an unlikely Trio who brought hope in healing to a divided City an event calling healing to divide what is healing to divide what's healing to divide it's how Dr Paul Chandler Reverend Richard green and Dr David L how they're all teaming up together the Christian the Jew but not just any Christian in Jew now he's a you know he's a Christian in the computer department and the Jew is in the I don't know the drinks Department no no no he's a reverend mean tries to destroy Judaism and he's a Jew no what what why why do you see anything wrong with this don't you think this should be at a it's a perfect event for sure Unity with the Christians show them that see we can be friends after all even though see you're your God Yos was a Jew after all right like us this rabai is being highlighted in a Jewish community in aabad house in Atlanta Georgia and they want to tell you that they banded together to bring the racial healing to a community to a community crisis this duo trio of different religions that are actually contradicting of each other they want to show you how they can be friends where in a synagogue in a synagogue now if they said they want to do this at Madison Square Garden most likely wouldn't even mention it cuz all types of foolish things happen in a place that but when you bring that to a synagogue you're in essence putting a kosher stamp on iTab is putting a kosher stamp on the fact that Christians and Jews should be teaching together dining together doing everything together now that's a little bit of a problem because the says that you're not allowed to have have such events with the Christians in fact with the Goen period not all to have such events you're not all to have a dinner festive meal with the go unless they invite themselves and they're in a politically strong position that could hurt you but you can't invite your friend Jose and his cousin Vinnie to your P you can't do that why because what happens is he comes to the S then he comes to the to the Hanukkah party before know it your sister likes him why she doesn't see any difference between him her and Vinnie she didn't see any difference between her and Jose she doesn't see any difference between those why what what's the problem's he's my brother's friend he's my my my father's friend he's he came to us from for the S you're creating into marriage by not separating which means that when you bring Christians to a synagogue you are not only going against al you're not only going against the sages you're not only going against hasem but you're also going against yourself you are breeding into marriage within your own Community within your own household and unfortunately this is happening more and more now there's not enough manpower and in that we have to fight every one of these battles but we bring them up anytime we fight find out about them and this is happening for one reason and one reason only rabis have become dogs rabbis have become dogs that are trying to please their Master now so people are not offended by the comparison compared them first but also another comparison would be a jester you guys know what a Jester is Jester is like a clown tries to amuse you tries to do all types of things joke sometimes maybe a trick handstand do a few flips maybe juggle fire all types of things whatever is going to entertain the crowd now when he's a Jester that's what you're paying him for but when a Jester is really a rabbi that's a problem today that's what is saying is happening the rabbis have turned into gestur they've turned into clowns that are constantly focused on pleasing the crowd in every way shape or form what you guys are bored okay I'll bring you some uh self-help Guru that's not even a Jew maybe from Catholicism that's going to give you guys a lecture about confidence and uh whatever else he has to say maybe about Yos to what you guys are board you don't like my you don't like me talking about m okay you know what I'm going to bring you a uh you know a reverend I'm going to bring you a self-help Guru I'm going to help I'm going to bring you uh some sex therapist to I'll bring you something to entertain you and they bring all types of people that are forbidden by the Torah the Baton synagogue had this woman uh whatever her name is she's like 900 years old and she caused more men to sin than probably any woman in recent history Dr Ruth I think her name is they had her on the front stage next to the AR KES Pro homosexuality front row tickets several events Bon and many other places around the world how do you think he pays for all of this all of his mentions it's not just the books not just the books people are hosting these why are they hosting theim because the K the community is so ignorant they don't know the difference between right and wrong cuz the shepherd the leader is not really telling them what are you telling them what do you guys want I'll bring it for you what are you guys in the mood for in the UK man and I think it was uh Manchester that Rashad DWI he says what are you guys in the mood for you want to start a book club okay we'll start a book club a secular book club I'll be the first to recommend the books what's the first book he recommended he the rabbi of the Kil recommended a book you're not even allowed to read that's what he that's the first book they went over 50 Shades of gome Rabbi gets paid a million and a half dollars a year to take his entire KLA to gain at least do it for free this is what's happening around the world when you see these unusual events in your community know this you do not have a rabbi you have a Jester you have an Entertainer you don't have a rabbi if the rabbi is loved by everyone the itself says it's a problem why it's not possible for Rabbi to be loved by everyone because if he's rebuking them and telling them the truth surely some people are not going to like him but that's a good sign but if everybody likes him that means that he's not rebuking everyone that means that he's turned into a Jester and says people that are gers the beginning of their punishment is suffering in this world beginning and the end of their punishment is suffering as well so here we see that you have yourself a very serious problem because you have a generation that has some major you have some big rabbis in the world but unfortunately most people don't listen to them they only listen to them when it's convenient when it's convenient they listen to them but in reality they don't listen to them then you have the Clowns the jesters that are infiltrated practically every Community guy comes to a rabbi he says RAB listen we have these CDs that're going to help people do chv and uh get no no no no we don't teach that over here exactly you don't teach that over here that's why I brought the rabbi that is teaching it because you see you have 200 kids in a neighborhood teenagers every single one of them every single one of them is addicted because you don't teach it so I didn't want to tell the rabbi what to do what to teach so what I do try to help the K I bought it and I'm bringing it for free so people can take it no no no no no it's going to scare them it's what do you mean what do you mean it's going to scare them what you tell people if they're drinking poison you tell them no no no leave them alone don't tell them not to drink it why cuz you if you talk about Journey he's going to get scared let him enjoy it's like the craziest thing in the world people are so worried about everyone's comfort and convenience and entertainment value that they've turned into gestur now this leads to a lot of problems a wasan can continues and he says when sets himself up against is saned says and that benid Mas is not coming until does but that one of the sages says is not going to do it's never going to be that everybody's going to do never going to be so says if they don't all do cha they don't do CH is GNA send them a vicious leader like H Hitler that's going to force them to do so says that when a h when such a leader sets up himself against is we must know that this ham is nothing other than the than a heaven sent Rod to Smite us with says anytime you see the guy from Iran saying that he wants to destroy isra or you see some other anti-semite saying he wants to destroy isra don't be fooled it's not not him don't focus on him don't be scared of him don't even pay attention to him pay attention to who allowed him to do what he's doing as it says in the prophet Isaiah chapter 10 verse 5 wo to ayria the rod of my anger my wrath is a staff in their hand against the hypocritical people shall I send them says to the prophet you see this Assyria you see this vicious monster that's wants to destroy is it's really me it's really my rod that's hitting is who is it hating the hypocritical people the people that looked religious but they're not the people that acted religious but only when it was convenient for them the people that were generous for the wrong reason the people that did what they did but not really all those Hypocrites those Rim that led them he wanted the rabbi position not because he wanted to help people he wanted the RAB position because RAB position sometimes has a lot of connections connections to money connections to this connections to that nice reputation sohem says oh is Syria Rod of my wrath my rod is a staff in their hand and rman continues saying no good can come from combating the rod does God lack any rods God has many Messengers we must find methods of preventing the people being used as rods against us in the days before mashiach Common Sense will be lacking and like a crazy dog they will bite the stick he says to us plain and simple there's going to be many different Messengers from a whether it's Iran or the Palestinians or it's some other anti-semite or it's going to be covid-19 or 17 or 12 or financial crisis or the uh uh a um what is it uh um a aaff a fat whatever it's called there's a bunch of hooligans that are destroying everything the BDS CNN New York Times all of these different things these are all my staff AAC AAC F clab Twinkie what do you want for me these people are all staff uh rod that's who they are all nowman is explaining to us Focus ing our time and attention to fight these people to fight the rod nothing good going come out of it aside from it being a waste of energy it's going to lead to a lot of confusion cuz people are going to think that it's anti-Semitism that's the problem today that it's covid-19 that's the problem to should all make Aliah because because covid-19 anti-Semitism anti- this anti- that how come how come none of this was a problem four months ago how come none of this was a problem a year ago how come none of this was a problem two years ago how come why all of a sudden happen what just bored see my kids are having too much fun let's mess with them see what happens let's kill a bunch of them just see what happens why wasn't this a problem a year ago two years ago we are obligated to evaluate our actions of what happened before in order to know what led to today now if we had the appropriate leaders instead of jesters they would tell us are yes have become a joke if you don't have any money they they're willing to throw you out even though Allah says they're not allowed to throw you out if you want to be a modest girl you're not going to be accepted in most of these seminars why modesty is not allowed they tell you you oh wear a skirt make sure the skirt covers like parts of the knee yeah but that's not really modest supposed to be to cover the whole leg no no no that's too much you are too religious for us what we won't accept you with such a long dress won't accept you with such a long dress if you're Safari if you're ashkanazi if you came from this one from that one yes became a joke the teachings have become problematic you have Christian missionaries teaching Inside Yes countless stories that I have first firsthand knowledge woman from here in Florida called me one day crying said my my my my 9-year-old kid just came home telling me about Yos I said what public school do he go to she goes he doesn't go to public school he goes to a Yeshiva this happening so you see what's happening in then you see about all of obviously unfortunately this whole child molestation situation that we have this pedophilia filth that's happening in practically every community and no one seems to be doing anything about it or at least not enough you have the education becoming a complete disaster on top of that the shoes have become a playground many shoes are having basketball courts they're adding basketball courts to shoes instead of adding another sh instead of adding another good Rabbi instead of adding more kadus we're adding basketball courts and how you going to hire the rabbi uh the rabbi that's the talls because he's going to have to play basketball with the kids so guess what says Yesa like this I don't want them so we already started having problems with yes over the last year because what the government wants to do in California in New York soon to be Nationwide ISO the shoes you keep telling everybody oh look look at the sticker on the wall look at the sticker on this look at the don't speak while you're in sh yeah yeah don't speak well in sh they're speaking about this in sh yeah yeah don't speak around sh yeah but you're saying don't speak in SHO while you're in sh you're talking about not talking in sh when you're in sh yeah but I'm talking about a good thing no Rabbi can you do me a favor can tell the KLA to uh not talk during prayer no no no they're not going to come back if I do that synagogue has become a joke entire group of young men did CH coming to the shim here started keeping Shabbat keeping MIT keeping this keeping that they start going to shab tells them wow who are you what are you oh where you who H oh RAB no no don't go to him anymore don't go to him anymore the only reason they came to him is because they came toim all the reason but after they came to him he told a group 15 20 guys stop coming to the sh why Jester the jester told them not to come so guess what again and this unfortunately is happening day after day because people are looking to become popular because people are looking to be n you know uh good with the ladies because people are looking for money all of this self-interest thatman has been telling us about for the last few weeks is happening in our world today now you would think that some of the bigger rabbis or bigger leaders perhaps the more popular ones will do something about it so wasman continues and he says our new leaders have declared war against powerful Nations what is our power and strength newspaper articles are like cannonballs which we aim at the enemy what can be the outcome they serve only to Kindle the Wrath of the serpents against us the leaders see only the rod and refuse to recognize the smiter as it says in the prophet Isaiah 9:12 the people return not to him that smites them he says that look what we have today instead of having your Rabbi your local your leaders try to tell people it's time to do chuva look the world is collapsing we have sickness we have into marriage we have no end to the problems it's time to do chuva what do they do did you guys read my article on uh on Israeli times did you guys read my blog did you guys read my uh did you watch my interview I was on CNN did you guys see me on CNBC did you guys see me on channel 7 did you guys see the they write articles they write blogs they put it on the internet they're like oh that's my they go on to secular media as they publish their articles their opinion about the world their opinion about into the the uh the the religions and how we could all unite all types of nonsense that's our weapons that's what they're using as our weapons that's what the gur are doing why because when you go on a major Network as a speaker they interview C CNBC they interview you on CNN guess what the competing Channel also wants to interview you now now when you go on two channels guess what a third Channel wants you also by the time you got to the fourth Channel somebody's giving you a book contract somebody's giving you a book cont Hey listen Rabbi what's your name again yeah yeah whatever listen Rabbi we'll give you 25,000 to write a book about whatever it is that got you on this TV how about that and the rabbis are doing it over and over again why because that's their job to please the crowd to be popular so of course if you want to be popular you cannot tell people what the Torah says about someone that drives on Shabbat you cannot tell the people that listen if mhu was here and he saw you driving he would tell he would command every one of us to Stone you to death mhe is the master of all prophets the only one that spoke to face to face no one can challengeu one person tried his name was kak he still in G till this day about it him and all of his followers if M was here today and he saw your K all driving on Shabbat he'd bring a bunch of different with stones with boulders to kill every single one of them show me a rabbi that's doing that for his K letting them know about M show me a rabbi telling his K listen your son your daughter your friend friend your colleague he's homosexual he's got serious problems with hasem that's one problem that doesn't mean that he has to share the problem with the rest of us he's allowed to come to sh we're not going to kick him out but he better act like a normal person if he starts coming to Sho with a skirt and with makeup on tell him to go to his uh boyfriend's house don't come here with this filth there's no acceptance of that disgusting Behavior no tolerance no tolerance of that behavior want to come to sh want to do chv I'll be the first one to help you but you want to come with a uh with your your boyfriend no acceptance you tell this in Aila to throw you out so you know what Melvis did in in London he wrote an entire book of how we should accept the homosexuals why that gets popularity that got them on more TV shows that got them more on more and more people's good list that's what a Jester does that's what a showman does but unfortunately for us if we don't do enough is that these gestur are not giving endless amount of time to continue ruining the world at some point a says I'm going to take revenge against the jesters and I will take care of my own sheep but unfortunately there's going to be a lot of suffering beforehand now when you tell people that all of this happening in the world today anti-Semitism increasing disease financial crisis these are all signs from these these are all rods that is using in order to bring us closer where else do we see this from in Psalm 23 verse number four says you your Rod your staff that will bring me Comfort they will bring me Comfort now why would a rod and a staff bring D Comfort now staff I understand because David says I'm a sheep I number nothing staff's going to tell me where to go should I go to Sho should I go learn should I go back home to my wife take care of my kids what should I do staff's going to tell me what to do where to go where who to be friends with who not to be friends with what's allowed what's not allowed the staff is the Torah what's the rod the rod is suffering so why is the saying that the suffering as well as the Torah is giving him Comfort if he just said that the staff is giv him comfort that the Tor has giv him Comfort he's enjoying learning that's easy to understand but that's not what he's saying here D is saying hasem I want you to know that when I'm in a value of shadow of death when I'm in G when I'm suffering when is attacking me in all ways when they're trying to destroy me they're trying to go against me that's the rod I know it and the staff that's the Torah both of those they give me Comfort thank you very much thank you very much for all that suffering why the kenberg re Shalom he was a is KES that built entire communities in Germany in America in Israel especially in Nat during the Holocaust he lost 10 of his kids and his wife and there was one child left while he's in the Holocaust while he's in the death camps someone comes to the closenberg Reby and tells him I just saw your 11th child your last son get murdered by the Nazis and people that there that witness this they saw that the initially was shocked but moments later literally almost as if it was within the same thought went back to being the rebi comfortable happy in in Holocaust we're having a tough time being happy with no Holocaust he's okay in the Holocaust why yeah but you just found out that your last son out of 11 just got murdered what are you happy about so they asked how is it that you're like this you just found out your last your last son just died he says I'll give you an analogy imagine there was a father and a son went into the woods for a trip and you know the son said I'm gonna go play a little bit in the woods okay so he went playing in the woods and the father just sat there in the camp and the son was curious and he went started following a trail and then he saw some fruits and he saw a butterfly he started following the butterfly and before you know it he started he got pretty far away from where the camp was and he didn't know how to come back and it started getting dark and he started getting scared he started hearing sounds all types of animals he doesn't can't see stuff and it's getting darker and darker fast and he's little and he's vulnerable and he has nowhere to go and all he can do is just simply wait for light to come up if he's even going to survive suddenly out of nowhere where it's become darkest he gets a hit on his back P he gets scared and he runs away from it but then he turns around like what just me a bear a polar bear panda bear a giraffe what is it so he turns around after he runs away he turns around he says son oh oh it's ABA and he runs back why do you run back cuz he knows it's TBA the closenberg re says when you told me that my 11th son was murdered I got shocked it was the darkest thing I've ever heard in my life my last son was the darkest thing I've ever seen the darkest moment of my life but then I looked who just hit me this hit who just hit me where did this come from and I looked behind me and I said oh it's ABA it's ABA oh okay it's ABA thanks ABA it's ABA there's no reason to be scared anymore why because whatever he's doing he's doing it it has to be the best it has to be good it's ABA what's the question is telling us it's not just about the staff the staff that's going to direct you but rather the rod the rod sometimes comes before the staff before you're able to learn to sometimes you have to go through some suffering has to give you a few surgeries to Humble you has to take a bunch of stuff from you has to make you realize you have nothing but him so he does you a favor and he puts you in a very very dark alley a place you have nowhere to turn a place you feel alone a place you feel miserable a place you don't think you're going to survive and he gives you hits and hits and hits after hits in order to make you realize you're not alone it's ABA says when I know that it's the the rod is from you that gives me Comfort yeah it hurts but it gives me Comfort why does it give me Comfort that it's your that it's you because it's not the rod it's who the rod belongs to it's that it's not that I want the rod it's that I want your Rod once it becomes Your Rod that's a good rod if it's somebody else hitting me no it cannot be good but if it's you hitting me you're ABA you're ABA once it's your R there's no better rod in the it might as well be the staff once it's your Rod whether it's your Rod or your staff it's you anyway I can't wait to spend time with you that's what a person needs to understand about the situation that is happening today the problem we have is that we do not have enough teachers to tell us what rman was trying to tell us what David was trying to tell us and the reason why is not just because the world is full of gestures that are looking to become popular are looking to become Rich materially it's not just because of that but rather because there's a lack of understanding of what's required to be a real Shepherd the the uh Admore Mish who wrote A seph called sees not just a section he was in the Holocaust as wellish and uh he would give shim inside the death camps and this seph called KES he also wrote another seph called he uh this SE is full of lectures that he gave inside the death camps inside theoc and he writes that when a person delves into who the sikim are he realized how far he is from being a tadik now his father the ADM said something very interesting that's actually quoted in this seil and he says that someone that sacrifices his life for the sake of is greater than someone that sacrifices his life for himself now at first look this looks strange to us what do you mean you sacrifice your life for hem this that dies of K that's the highest level that most says no it's not the highest level highest level is someone that sacrifices for the sake of but not dying like someone's killing you so you save another life living living with sacrifice for the sake of why because a person that's for the Ben for the son of the king proves how much he loves the king himself because he doesn't only love the king but he loves the king so much that he loves his children just as much as the king and he's will to sacrifice life for them too when a person understands what the value is of sacrificing your life for the sake of am that it's actually much greater than sacrificing yourself just for hem himself he says then you are already on the right path D Mo says of being a rabbi but how many people are really willing to sacrifice their life the mid asks how come am was in a Egypt for 210 years slaves for most of it slaves for 116 years how come midash answers because no one was willing to sacrifice their life to take them out of Egypt which means if mosu did not come along and put his life on the line day after day for the sake of every single one of us would still be in Egypt right now 3,000 years later if it wasn't for mosu is would have never left Egypt never left slavery that's how great mosenu was you say maybe somebody else would have come later on not possible because the only reason anyone else was great after mosenu was due to what mosenu did in the first place which is take out am from the desert from the uh from Egypt bring them to mount sa give them the Tor and then you have the instructions the blueprint from that's you can become great before that no one was able to do it how many people want to be mosu people like to be called Moshe people want to be with the Cav of Moshe but how many are willing to sacrifice their life like Moshe was now that Mish also writes in a seel that there was one time Aid of his that was in jail and uh the reason why is because he was uh supposed to be uh going and drafted into the Polish Army and AD Mo which was was very very young at the time he gathered a ton of money and spent a ton of money bribing whoever possible to get this young man out of the draft into the Polish Army and many people disag agreed with him so what's the big deal let him go to the Polish Army it's better than him going to jail it's better than him getting killed by the by by by the guim what's the big deal why you spending so much money on it it's better he doesn't go but if he's going while you spending all this money maybe you could use it to build something spread more Judaism why you spending so much money for this oneid it's only one guy dmos says any Rabbi that's not willing to put himself inside the bottom of G for any one of his is no Rabbi at all if you're not willing to go inside Gom itself to go save one of your from the fire you should not be allowed to be called a rabbi a rabbi is not a title you get after you pass a bunch of tests a rabbi is not something you get because you have to happen to be working in a building that maybe you own it or maybe you don't a rabbi is not something you just add to your business card and therefore you're a rabbi a rabbi is not something you can just simply decide I'm going to be a rabbi from today on what a rabbi really is that Mo says is a certification that you are willing to go inside G to go save one of your to go save one of your T that's what you're willing to do and if you're not willing to do it you're not allowed to be called Rabbi you're not a rabbi at all why because in order to be a man a leader a Shepherd first rule a sacrifice now if you don't know what the value of sacrifice is that already told you to sacrifice yourself for the sake of is is greater than sacrificing yourself forem because it shows AEM how much you love him now how many people are willing to sacrifice themselves some but not enough now one time he writes here that they had a [Applause] situation one of the uh it was a Shabbat cha and the Admore got very sick he wasn't able to move he wasn't able to speak he had an infection in his lungs that was debilitating him so even though it was usually scheduled to give a big lecture for Shabbat cha he wasn't able to do it but then days before the lecture he found out that one of the rich people in the Jewish Community decided that he's going to open up his business from now on on Shabbat and he told him yeah but the re is going to go against you says if the rebi tell the rebi for me message for me if he says one thing about my business being open on Shabbat I'm going to go to my contacts in the government and they're going to remove him from his rabinal position position he's going to lose everything so when the rebi found about found out about this immediately gathered his strength went from one Community to another one KLA to another and told him we're going to have this lecture and on that lecture he screamed his lungs out about the significance of Shabbat and how they're all supposed to go against this rich guy before he destroys all of Judaism so much so that everyone in the room hundreds of people all agreed to go against this Rich Kil and he writes that the last part of the lecture was he says when I first started dealing here with the issues of fixing the Shabbat problem Shi they they send me Messengers from the raban that telling me that if I continue they're going to remove my remove me from my position these are drunk people if they think that they're going to scare me if they think that they're going to bother me at all by taking away my rabinal position don't they know what every is what every Jew actually means with his responsibility forem when he says when you say what are you saying at this moment where I'm uniting your name unifying your name what am I really doing I'm saying to you right now I'm willing to get cut open into 500 pieces for your name I'm willing to get thrown off of a building for your name I'm willing to go into a holocaust D and back 50 times for your name I'm willing to die for your name every time you say that's what you saying when say that's what you're saying willing to get killed for your name and I say this TW three times a day he says what say this every day I'm ready to get cut open 500 times every day I'm getting I'm ready to get murdered for the sake of a and they think they're going to scare me by some rabinal position these are drunk people he says when a person understands that a Jew is willing to get burned alive for the sake of hashem's name they would never insult him with such a warning he says I'm not looking for a fight but what has to be done has to be done done when a person is worried about his job he's not going to be able to rebuke the people or tell the people what they're supposed to hear when a person is scared for their own pocket they're not going to be able to do their job the way that they're supposed to because the sacrifice that's required means that you have to be willing to fulfill the life not only as a Jew but also as a leader that has much more to lose when it's concerning theot as a consideration than the bank account meaning you have to care a lot more about theot than you care about the bank account the popularity and so on now you can say okay maybe this is just for some people but not every Rabbi has to be like this but here's the problem that's not what it says in mid says the following a person a rabbi that learned and taught and kept and observed but there was an opportunity for him to rebuke and he didn't rebuke to support someone that rebukes and he didn't support someone that rebuke he didn't rebuke that's already a problem but he had at least okay I'm not I'm not good at rebuking some people say I'm not good at it so bring the rabbi the does rebuke yeah an opportunity no no no no don't bring him don't bring him but overall he learned the Torah he taught the Torah he kept the Torah he observed the Torah he did everything but he's just missing one ingredient rebuke he's not rebuking and he's not bringing any rebers this person this Rabbi is has the worst curse in the entire Torah even though he learned to his entire life he finished the a thousand times even even though he taught the a thousand times even though he kept all everything he kept everything one mitvah was missing he didn't rebuke and he didn't bring anyone to rebuke tells us he's not no not only he's not aad he's AR the worst curse in the Tor what does that mean what does it mean to be the the Tora tells us when a person when someone is not supporting the Torah and because of that he's called a the entire nation says amen that means that when it was decreed in sham that this person had an opportunity to rebuke somebody cuz he saw and he knows this guy drives in Shabbat and he didn't say nothing and then somebody from be contacted him and said listen we're in your area we're willing to give a shield for free he says no no no not for us he didn't want to bring you at that moment at that moment no abah yov Moshe Aon DAV all of the every Rabbi every tadik the babaali every single Rabbi in the history of mankind tadik at that moment says and everyone says amen why not only you didn't do doing the job you didn't do the job not only that not only you didn't save the that put in your hands but you didn't even let anybody else do it and then the midash continues even further scaring us even more saying the following this person is deemed the person that followed the Tor learned the Tor did everything but didn't rebuke what says he says a person that didn't learn and he didn't really fulfill the entire T and he didn't really observe all of the mitvah because obviously not that learned and he didn't teach anybody but he saw somebody doing something wrong he saw the guy driving on Shabbat he said hey you know you're a Jew and he saw that the rabbi is coming into town he said can I help out maybe pay for the flight maybe pay for the room maybe sponsor some CDs had an opportunity to support some kiru but he didn't learn he wasn't a bigad he wasn't a big he didn't teach anybody he big basic basic level Jew just keeps basic level he keeps shabat he's a koser Jew but nothing more than that but he did rebuke when he had the opportunity and he supported the rebuker this one is blessed that means at that moment that he writes the check or he donates online or he buys a CD or he tells somebody that if you continue buying Shabbat is going to kill you and he rebukes the moment that he does it because hasem gave him the opportunity Noah yov moson David shabar all of theik the bab all of the Giants in history at that moment says and everyone says am in the guy that learned to his entire life but didn't rebuke am in and the guy that didn't learn that much but just kept Basics but he did support rebuke that's how valuable sacrifice for the sake of is is why rebuke is not comfortable for anybody it's it's a sacrifice now a person that doesn't rebuke that wants to rebuke always has this worry what do I do if it's going to go wrong right we're going to finish off with this point this point puts it all in perspective where theph at the end of it in a section called in says that mosu asked to please give him one thing that all of the punishments that he would punish is for all of their sins to make something good come out of it now years later years later the Prophet Jeremiah in Chapter 2 first few verses he's talking about how is angry with and is deciding to destroy the bet mikdash that means that millions of people are going to die that means is a nightmare of nightmares why is was at the worst possible level they ever were the worst sins known to man they brought an idol inside the bet mikdash they were murderers and on top of it all types of immorality you think it they did it so many words not so different from today probably worse and who says Jeremiah do you know what I remember though you know what I remember I remember that when am was still young they trusted me and they went in the desert and they followed me for 40 years that's what I remember you would think hasem says I remember they they were in a desert two seconds after I told Ten Commandments they worshiping an idol two seconds after I took them out of Egypt they were complaining about food two seconds after they got out of there they're complaining about the uh the man they're complaining about water that's what you say I remember says I remember why you're about to punish them you're punishing them that's what you should be remembering say no no no I don't remember those things what I remember right now is that is followed me Blind Faith in Me in the desert now in reality we weren't supposed to be in the desert for 40 years it because of our mistakes and our sins that we were in a desert of 40 years nowu as the says asked AEM for one thing hasem please they're going to make sins I know it you know it but please whatever sins they make you're going to punish them cuz you have to punish them make something good come out of it so as a result of all of these punishments what really happened we were in a desert for 40 years that was a punishment what came out of it every single day Mana came down on top of it every single day the Mana was programmed to know who's sadik who's Ras how if it came right next to his door that's because he aik if he had to walk a mile for it that's because just the day before was sadik today was a the exposed them caused them to do CH embarrassment where's your food buddy oh you're rash aren't you no no I ate it yeah I ate it yeah buddy 6 o' in the morning ate it imagine that something like that today food shows up right at your door if you and it's nowhere to be found if you're every do do every do that was a miracle on top of it you had a river following us for 40 years the mountains would split open because thees would lead the way the floor was paved no one had to step on the floor because the Clouds Of Glory would literally make everything perfect scorpions snakes anacondas all types of giant cre creatures that were dangerous were not even allowed to come close to us best yet no one had to go to the bathroom for 40 years people with stomach problems appreciate this you don't have to go to the problem why the Mana absorbed by your blood completely no bathroom 40 years and no feeling of the bathroom perfectly healthy you show up the mount sa you were missing an eye now you have an eye you're missing an arm now you have an arm everyone was perfectly healthy and the best part 40 years no one changed clothes why the clothes grew with you and were brand new every single day now all of this came from what a punishment a punishment all of these Miracles came from a punishment why did a grant mosu his wish that out of the punishment Good's going to come why did a tell Jeremiah Jeremiah even though they're bad kids right now murdering raping this that what I remember about them is they trusted me to go in a desert they trusted to go to the desert why the answer to both is that when trusted they didn't know how long they're going to be in the desert they didn't know where they're going to go they didn't know what they're going to eat they didn't know if they're going to survive they didn't know anything they simply hadai inem and that's all they had and says when they had faith in me and they were willing to make a sacrifice for me I had to guarantee that only blessings will come out of it so much so that even the punishment had blessings on them so much so that the Merit of them going into the desert outweighed all of the sins and I remember it a thousand years later the Merit of us going into the desert still carries till this day and that's for sacrificing ourselves for what did say to us before he says if the sacrifice for the sake of is Big the sacrifice for his sons is even bigger that's why he answered M's prayer that's why when a person says I'm going to step out there I'm going to put myself at risk I'm going to go to a place I don't want to go to I'm going to do a job I don't really want to do I'm gonna help help a bunch of people I don't really know I'm GNA do a bunch of different things I have no idea how to do but I know wants me to do it I'm going to sacrifice myself for hashem's kids money time Health everything and I have nothing to be scared about why who says if you sacrifice yourself for me guarantee to have miracles if you sacrifice yourself for my kids it's even bigger if all of those gestur only knew how many blessings you get for the sake of sacrificing yourself for the sake of his kids in a real way to save them from their troubles to get them out of their troubles to get them to know the Torah every single one of those gestur themselves would start doing chuba the problem is when we're too busy being gestur looking for popularity looking to appease everyone we don't have time to learn any of this stuff and is not spoon feeding anyone this this is why I tell you all the time you have to make sure that not only you don't have a rabbi that's a Jester you have a serious Rabbi helping you but even even more than that you have to go forward Blind Faith he says you do hasem says you do says you do says if the Rabbi says it's the same thing as God says why that's your leader and if you don't have one or your one is that needs to be replaced cuz he's a Jester do it as soon as possible but you have to make sure to do everything you can to support this as best as you can because that's the only thing you have that can guarantee you a life of Miracles unfortunately right now is not at the best situation it's ever been in we have quite a few that are confusing the people day after day if we don't start waking up and remove our ego and remove our impatience and seriously start taking into consideration that we have to care about our brothers and sisters more than we care about ourselves we end up getting hurt more than everybody else if you simply notice what's happening in the world right now a lot of the a problems are happening from liberalism liberal Jews Lefty liberal type of mentalities but who actually has all of the suffering the right side the problems are caused by the liberal mentality but the ones that are suffering are really mostly the ones that are observing to doing MIT why because the only reason why they're staying liberal the only reason why they're staying secular the only reason they're staying anti is because we're not willing to sacrifice our life for them where thinking no I'm going to sacrifice my life for my own family no I'll sacrifice my life for my own k no I'm going to sacrifice my life for my own group no my friend you have to be willing to sacrifice your life for if you want a life full of Miracles I know a lot of this stuff is new to you to me to everybody but the situation is getting worse we need to be smart we need to not let things get to the point of a holocaust for us to wake up and take advantage of the things we have available to us for free today so tells us first and foremost recognize who the jester is run away from them don't support them second of all recognize who the Martyr is who's willing to sacrifice are you willing to sacrifice is he willing to sacrifice is she willing to sacri who is willing to sacrifice themselves [Applause] for and that's the route you have to go that's the route you have to go you have to do your best sometimes you could do better sometimes you could do less but bottom line is you got to do whatever you can because that's the way to survive the nightmare that's going on in the world now and unfortunately what's happening there's a lot more to say but I think we're going to continue next time hopefully you guys enjoyed this as much as I did amen e [Music]
