Self-Sacrifice: Do you have it? Do you want it? How to get it? Stories abt it - Rabbi Chaim Dalfin

foreign [Music] from his death sentence to Freedom and as we think about it this happened in 1927. almost a hundred years ago so what's the connection to us what do we take from it what do we have from it here in America in Canada and Australia there to throw all over the world yes that ever the previous celebrities he had self-sacrificed literally and not only did he himself have self-sacrifice but he he taught this to his hasidim my wife's grandfather I'm Salman cerebronski would celebrate naze why because for him gimmel Thomas was the day when the free decrepe his rabbit who he who he worked for in the 20s and 30s and 40s until the rabbit became the ebony worked for him his life was spared on gimletamos from Death to prison to hard labor and you'd base Thomas that ever got the notice if he could ever got to notice that he's completely free so for them it was a big jump to if I recall if I bring in a 770 about 25 years ago about I came into 770 youth based Thomas Knight and who was sitting there at two o'clock in the morning or three o'clock in the morning my father-in-law cerebronsky the Michael tatel by him and the mayor often I believe and in talking to my father-in-law the next day he said yeah for us this was it's real okay so for them it's real but what does that have to do with me I'm a Yankee Doodle I grew up in America I had food I had comfort you know we accepted them from America we had that happen for 42 years that we saw and heard him and enjoyed things were great and dandy cavaldi and the answer is my friends that you're the best Thomas represents Messina's nephesh it's the theme of self-sacrifice we see the Snapfish just like naksham but I mean not the official pace of jumped into the water and the fried calls that day that is that fish the individual in our generation in the previous generation and the individual who brought to the Free World we see the Snapfish was and I say this because people giants like rebellies silver who was the head of agude and the OU and everything else in the 40s and 50s and 60s rolled the red carpet out for him and when the fried crapper asked him to get visas for the bahram Kai he got them the visas and and when raphaimoisa was asked by defeated support his yeshivas he helped them even though the Prime Minister was a lit for sure and treble as a silver was Elite for sure okay but the Frida can happen we couldn't do what he did what he did we could we can learn and we can we can do community work but to stay in Russia understand with the threat of death every moment not every day every moment and you have to watch who's looking at you and you couldn't speak and the fear was so real that some of the Le Baba checks in them they came already there in America in the beginning they would they would be careful who's looking at them they wouldn't speak I know there's some family why because Stalin's fear is crept into their bone into their DNA but the true DNA was and that and and and that's Messina Snapfish and that's a lesson for us it's a lesson today for us so you don't have your you know your chocolate cake and you don't have your comfort so you don't have your air conditioner epistle let me see the starfish they tell the story I heard this from my Booker was in good man today he was in krakabad and it was a boiling day must have been 100 degrees outside and the krakabad roof at that time with the Yeshiva is was a flat roof and the sun was boiling and it was 3 30 in the afternoon it was the second saver when the bahram come back to study the second Crusader of Gomorrah and no one was there and this Booker comes in and he sees the only one who's there is a mental foot of us and he goes over tremendous as a Mendel that no one's here because it's so hot but if you go out to the porch they had a porch over there it's a little less hot because you don't have the the heat from the Sun baking on the on the roof maybe there was some shade outside I don't know exactly how but so the mendels and the Mendel was wearing his his Capote said maybe the men will take off your cupboard and sit you know he was sitting and learning and and sit on the porch she said what I should do that what am i showing the book at him that when it gets hot you don't have to come to learn you have to change your clothing and you have to go to a different location what message am I giving and he refused to go outside and he stayed in the boiling base of Madras so as we continue here in our journey during the summer and it's a journey during the summer it's brought down the cities that Thomas the donkey is cold cold vertebrated animal coldness represents apathy count kite the sun's baking and you're cold the scout Messina Snapfish is the antithesis of calcite let's see the Snapfish breaks calcite make this your mission be part of her bringing the Shabbos you have to go to a little more little less with masking without masking but you participating if I bring it half an hour an hour or 15 minutes two hours whatever men with men women with women children with children children should be taken by their parents that if I bring him and talk about mosquito Snapfish and and think about what how you and your life can add some aceta Snapfish and they should help kids and I remember that one Friday night when there was a class like this they didn't say they said he said they they substituted like you do on a young difference it comes out Friday night you say you substitute with the word simcha and they said the word and I understand that the rabbi told the rabbit was about filler something about that the night before in yehidas I'm not suggesting we do that I'm not a ROV in this case ask your owner of it's a hergish it's a feeling so even if you don't say this it's a great it's a great day nachos for us it's not just a little babita it's for every Eid it's
