they'll be transformed to days of
joy but i want to talk about
7 which is in a few days the 28th of
seventh
day the rabbi and the rabbits have
arrived it will be 80 years
80 years ago 1941 they arrived
you know the word khafres spells
kayak
means potential
the potential is up to every individual
there is a discussion in halacha
do you look at a situation as it is in
its potential
or do you look at a situation as it is
in its pale
in its actuality now of course everyone
you know will say well actuality paul
mamish actualities were accounts
but in the entire literature there's
also an advantage to kayak
there's also a on a virtue to kayak
what is the what's the virtue to kayak
to potential
the virtue is that if a person realizes
what their potential is then they will
ultimately use their kayak
they'll use their potential and this is
very important because many times
we fail to realize our potential
whether it's a low self-esteem whether
it's a misassessment of character
the freedom in the country's the essay
on education
guidance and guidance speaks about
how important it is for the masjid for
the educator the madrigh
to to assess properly
the student because
if you under assess him or you over
assess him
it can lead to damaging results that's
what he writes
it's very important to focus on the
rebbe and that ebbinson came
in 1941 they miraculously survived the
nazis
they came he was without a job they just
were beginning their life
they didn't have children they came to a
new world
the frida karebe saw the great kayak
of the and immediately
he put him to work he made him the
the director of three organizations the
americas
and mahney israel
but i want to go back for a moment a
little history
how was he saved what happened
so that recently they printed a letter
from rabbi fagan who was the secretary
of the of the representative
known as hatcher fagan that he wrote
today besides jacobson
and in this letter he writes to him
actually he wrote it on a separate piece
of paper
that was attached to the letter and in
and he said
and he writes there after you read this
destroy it
and in there he says that
um the rebel
will he was known that as the namash
an acronym for his his his name
will not want to leave and come to
america because at the time
when this was written i think it was
already
or maybe 41 40. he
already left i think vichy for marseille
and he was in safe waters in that safe
haven
so when the frida kedabba when the
previous river
gave a list of people he wants to take
with him and the rabbit that evidence
that were on it this was still when
before they they arrived to safety
but once he made it over to safety
and it was relatively peaceful
hatcher writes to miso jacobson i know
him
and basically he doesn't want to have
the glamour
he doesn't want to have the publicity he
wants to
to sit and learn and do his
work honestly make a honest
living not to live off the public
and nepaccha writes them israel so
therefore tell him
that his father-in-law that the
schweitzer
needs him he needs him the freedom
wasn't well everyone knew that and it
will make the
he could have his life easier if he came
to america
so he the hatchet writes to ruby
jacobson to write
to the rebel from america telling him
that
how did he get out the pile
so in the book out of the inferno
written by
rebecca rahul
jacobson she writes the details but
briefly
they convinced the government the
american government the state department
to
that the free the cadet and his
entourage
are like a maluka they're a
kingdom a kingship of leaders
and dignitaries and for the
greater jewish nation they're necessary
it's necessary for them to be in america
this ultimately convinced whoever it was
at the state department to grant them
the visas because first that ebba had
given a reason
to the state department for wanting a
visa
and they rejected it only after
this argument was presented
to the government to the state
department was accepted and by the way
who was the one
who came up with this idea was someone
named judah
gurari huda garadi he was a son of
raphsmule gerard the famous hostage of
the
marathon he had a son here in america i
think he lived in long island i think
at some point and he
i heard at a gurus meeting
he came up with this brilliant idea and
they bought the idea and that's how
that ever ultimately and everyone else
got
to america so we talk about 80 years
shmainam shan and gevuda
the potential that the friedrich rebbe
saw in the rebbe and the robertson
coming to america and why and what is it
all about so that ever said
in 1987 when he spoke about
he said it's the time when the the
siddhis
came to hatsey kadarat into the lower
hemisphere
and the idea being that
he said he's saying this kind of about
himself
the frida kleb is coming to america was
that concept and he's an extension
of the frida kadab therefore
it's one hampshire it's one continuation
so we understand from this that the
greatness of this day
is to make the potential reality
the kayak kayak potential
needs to be reality but you need to
understand what the potential is
and this is the brilliance of this
khafre's
seven at least one of the ideas to think
about is
how to take a potential and to see in
the potential
it's a it's far-reaching
opportunities that makes it worthwhile
to invest in the potential
i mean you can talk about this with
teachers and students parents with
children
even in the business world you know to
the stock that might be you know
look like nothing at the end of the day
it's
it's you know very successful so you buy
it when it's
nothing because you see and understand
the potential there
so my my dear friends it's
shabaz mavorhim it gives the kayak for
the whole khai dish
what's giving the kayak is the shabbos
although we focus on shabbos of welcome
thomas
but we must not forget that there's a
huff receiving a kayak 7
and and stephen is taira the the
it's the kayak the potential able
to help now with this kayak that we will
focus on and and make
part of our reality by taking the kayak
that the abrasive gives to us
as yet and particularly
that we will utilize this for good
things and healthy things
and will be mafix the yadas disseminate
siddhas all over with abbas israel with
great simcha with great joy
even if things at time look dark and dim
will find the potential there for light
and success everyone should have
uh shabbos kaidish
and will be
me
