it's time for rabbi mankiewicz weekly
Torah lesson a place where life's most
difficult questions are answered here
with his spiritual perspective and
insight
rabbi Mingo it welcome to this week's
Torah lesson this week's Torah portion
process who got the question of the week
is what is the real quality of a leader
so in this week's Torah portion we
process who gussed we learn about a
hookah in other words in Commandments
the three times the Commandments a dose
alkane and much partying a dose our
testimonies for example we celebrate
Shabbat because God created the world in
six days and rested on the seventh we
celebrate Passover because you went out
of Egypt so with the testimony is
something that happened a miss bought a
law is a law that even if the Torah
didn't give it we would still have to
put it in place for example not to steal
it's a godly law but it's also a civil
law cooking on the other hand it's a
statute being to say is there's no
reason there's no logic like for example
the whole laws of purity and impurity
there's no logic to it you can be a
hundred percent clean take ten showers
that you spiritually impure you can be
spiritually poor and physically not
clean so the whole idea of a hike is
something which is beyond logic now
where does one connect more and deeper
to God when it's beyond logic when
there's no reason for the mitzvot you
need the only reason why are you doing
it because God instruct you to do so but
we know in the other one hand motion of
a know he knew God shared with him the
reason even for the cook for the coin
even for the statue so the question is
if moisture Boehner knew the reason for
not only a doesn't respond like we all
know but he also know the reason for the
hookin so most of it was lacking that
connection to God and the deepest level
where it's beyond comprehension
so the Rebbe he explains because
ultimately even though most Robinho knew
the reason but since motoring was a
leader of the Jewish people and the Jews
the dirt the people did not know the
reason and since he was a leader and the
people didn't know the reason so it
bothered him that the people didn't know
and because the people didn't know on
some spiritual level he didn't even know
and that's why he was able to connect to
God and the level of hook a level of the
Statue based on his connection to the
people
to answer the question what is the real
quality of leader the real quality of
leader is someone that connects to the
people and the people's pain the
people's concern becomes his concern
which this week we're celebrating the
yard site of the gimel Commons the
rubbish passing who obviously was a real
leader who connect to teach and every
one of us and may his memory be a
blessing for all of us
this week's Torah lesson is a memory of
Baraka and I relayed and Ben
Yosef may their souls the elevator to
the Torah that we're studying in their
memories I'd like to dedicate and wish a
special model of my gourd Ohana on a
marriage
