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 megawatts welcome to this
week's Torah lesson this week's Torah
portion is parshas emer the question of
the week is how do you inspire others to
overcome challenges so in this week's
Torah portion parshas mr as you see the
name of the portion is called mr Emma
means to speak the tour begins and God
tells Moshe anal and more to speak I
look to the priest the sons of Aaron and
then it says we are Martha am you should
tell them again and all the commentaries
ask why they say twice mo via matta and
the commentaries teach us that here the
tour is teaching us how important it is
to speak speak what positively not only
positively when it's positive but as the
rambam explains that a person and
especially a scholar is obligated to
speak always in the source in the
benefit every individual and never to
talk about his negative negativity or
his defaults so the Romberg says we have
an obligation to speak positively about
everybody and even when the person is
going through a challenge so the
question is if someone's going through a
challenging time what's the positivity
you're going to talk about and their be
explains the pilot if ities to tell the
person as follows that the reason why
you're going to the challenge not
because you're going through a challenge
because God knows that you have the
power to overcome the challenge and by
telling the person that God gave you the
power over the come to challenge that
inspires and empowers the person to get
out of his challenge and when people see
that it gives them the strength that
will go there going to a challenge I
realized in the challenge is not because
God wants them got to bid to fool and to
fail but in the country God wants to
bring out tremendous powers that they
have within in them and that's what I
Tori tells us emer vera motto that our
job is to speak and speak words of
positivity and encouragement to inspire
people to always do the
thing and sometimes doing the right
thing is to overcome the challenge and
the challenge is was a gift from God so
that they could overcome any difficult
are going through so the answer the
question how can you inspire others to
overcome a challenge they have just by
telling them as it says in the rambam
that the reason why you have a challenge
because you are special you're unique
the other person doesn't have the
challenge because he's not gonna have to
withstand it you God knows that you'll
be able to overcome the challenge and
that's why he gave you this challenge so
it's actually a positive thing that
you're telling the person that you're
going through and that will hopefully
inspire them to overcome the challenge
they have and get back on track and be
greater then they were before this
