so
um the date everyone with their name he
get his base page Zion
and here in this section of the letter
bio deals with the belief of the Mizrahi
and the akuda that in one way or the
other started either it's the actual
beginning code is
he says they are good they referred to
it at the time as a scout to Dear Scout
at the beginning of the beginning or
another word they used
and he says that this is uh clearly
against the rambam and therefore the
it's considered from the right from the
perspective of the rambam as he and the
rebel and see it as
um
and I explained at the end of this year
why it's Kavita and I don't know it was
a little rush I just repeated briefly
because it's very important when you you
know
when we hear people say it's krita so
flippantly it reminds me of my neighbors
and you know in Williamsburg or your
neighbors and and
um
it used to be on the uh mayor serum but
now you have it also in ramadanus down
the road
where they're quick to say you're a
kaifer
you're a heretic
why because you don't agree with my
shita whatever that sheet is in
particular kanoi is you know being uh
Zealot and standing up for the title
Therefore your kaifer and Abigail here
who is like the epitome of Chabad the
philosophy and the master Mastery of
Chabad hasidus
he used the words krita gamuta
so to when I when I read this when I
learned this it stands out and it begs
interpretation or clarification better
said so I clarified yesterday why is it
because
the 13 principles of faith
one of them is to believe in a mashiach
and one of them is to believe in
Christian
so come he take for example if someone
comes along and says
amazing is not going to happen because
of shalom it's not true resurrection of
the Dead is it's false
according to the 13 principles every Jew
who prays every day and says the 13
principles or even if they don't say it
like it's not our accustomed to say it
but we we know about it and we believe
in it we say that's a cliffer that's
that's a heretic that's clear because if
you deny one of the 13 principles
then it's clearer serbiao says that
according to the rambam it's the same
fira If you deny the rambam's
understanding of the Torah that there's
a process to mashiach's coming and
mashiach will come and then there'll be
the Binya base amigdash and only
afterwards will be keep us going as the
Gathering of in gathering of the Exiles
of the of the people throughout the
world bring them back territory
what what a design is saying including
the religious Zionist no
they're saying what that the fact that
Eden came from all over the world at 48
to particularly 67 and there was in this
constantinalia that saw the process
that's included in escalated because
it's the in gathering of the goalies
keep it golius says
it's against the number and if it's
against
it now as I said yesterday because we
need to be honest the forthright
that this thousands and thousands of
eating the hundreds of thousands of
heathens who disagree and to follow the
sheet of cook Etc
that it's not Freedom why because him
say otherwise and we don't pass in like
the number
and I've told you that over and over I
just want to make it clear
but anyone that that that does
agree that since the rambam is the only
the only god of fire the only halachis
who who speaks about the laws of
mashiach and no later commentator in
authority
disagreed and wrote against the rambam
so therefore we accept the words of the
rambam as the final word on these issues
and the rambam says that keep us golias
comes after being so the according to
the rambam he would turn around and say
to RAF cook rough cook where is the base
of
how does cook will explain it I I assume
that it's been discussed and written
about at length in RAF cook and in his
town medium swarm I I you know
regretfully I I I'm not a buck in those
farm at all I I should sometime would
like to delve into them to just have a
broader understanding but this is a
question that you can ask people that
you know who are of cook shita how would
they address the numbers I think that
they would tell you very simply we don't
we don't accept it on them as the place
and just as the rambam has his opinion
the Komodo has its opinion
and and and and and and the and the
method has its opinion and we could
follow those opinions
I I believe that's what they would say
yes sir you have something to add to
this
I think there may be a simpler uh answer
which is that all processes
have a beginning and an end we have so
smart
does that mean that you have to finish
the entire Krishna by that time or that
you have to start the creation by that
time so when you talk about he looks
golios it could be we certainly do not
have the total in gathering of everybody
or you could say even the majority if
you count the the Lost uh the Lost
tribes and those people who
are still logically Jewish and they
don't know they're Jewish and we don't
know they're Jewish and nobody knows
that they're Jewish so what we consider
to be a couple of Keepers gulios may be
a very small fraction of the actual
which will not happen until there's a
basement however there are people who
are gathering here now okay and that's
and then we don't have a basement okay
and what's the basement
then everybody else is going to come and
that will be the conclusion of the
process I don't see it as stir up but
wait but you did in everything you said
you did you either didn't hear what I'm
saying or or you I didn't understand you
wait you're saying that says
golias happens after being in base I
make this
Jews living
there you could live in Texas Road
that's not that's not keep us golias
keep no I'm not I'm not wait a minute
I'm not arguing to me that rambam's not
arguing that keep us goalies means every
single Jew from all over I'm not nod
that I agree with you
I'm putting the emphasis is being your
base amigdus where is the base of Indus
where is the building of Base Amigos
so then if you don't have then the next
stage then it can't begin
rights being in based up make this comes
first
so you have to start playing around with
what the rambam says
so how how what you said
uh re refutes what I said
so that doesn't thank you that's all and
that's the point
I brought him one second that's the
Boyle's Point here which is not only his
the represent and others
and that's why I said you know you guys
you know you're over there you know
those people who are strong enough cook
Nicks ask them this question I'd like to
hear what's what's their answer I think
their answer is going to be we don't
file that I'm Batman with the mother and
the Madras and everything's fine but but
I would like to know that that that's
that's a question I have because I can't
imagine enough cook I I you know he just
dismissed that Amber you know first of
all he was a half-lit lit facts are
very strong and the rambam you're up
high and brisket you know what I'm
saying that I'm bummed by the priscus is
everything sort of cook wasn't a prisker
but nevertheless so it'll be interesting
to see how the the the the the Marcus
arrive people and their abundant in fact
you know I'm gonna do I'm going to send
a email to Shem to rev Madness with our
Shiva there's my my shriggers he's my
mother-in-law's uh stepbrother so we
have you know we have a relationship so
I'm gonna ask him this and I bet he's
gonna have what to say now avron what
did you want to say please
I would say that how do we Define
what this current situation is is real
now but so many people make another year
it's a wonderful thing but it's it's not
calorically the status of
living in Los Angeles
feels different of course
but it is going it's just less goldness
you know what a classic once told me
I've run
feeling is is is is is Nick can moose or
the way we would say in Yeshiva when we
took a little mask feeling as a
stomachache
you we feel and and please forgive me if
I if I sound dismissive and and I do
sound dismissive that's not what I mean
what I mean to say is just because it
feels good and not only and I'm gonna
say more it is good listen you don't
have to tell me I would love to be in
there to throw when I walk the streets
I've told you sometimes I start jumping
from
singing I I know what what the stones of
yerushalayim are
but nevertheless it still goes it still
goes I'm sorry
so you're saying Los Angeles is a
greater gulless guess what some people
say otherwise I met a Jew this morning
in shul
who are born hungry raised natural has
lived in Detroit now for the last 40 to
50 years so I said his wife now passed
away a few years ago from coverts I said
no are you going to go back there to
Thrill now he looks at me says you know
I just was there for three months I
tried it
it's not for me
he's saying without saying it that
living Detroit is less ghost than living
in that stroke
I'm not saying he's right but I'm just
telling you what's you what's for you of
rum more and more less goals for someone
else can be just the opposite and and
and I and anyone he all of you who've
come from America or other places to to
Eric's row of course it will look just
like for me
but but but let's not let's not make a
mistake that that until now and Hello by
it changes and even if it changes
there's no right within government with
with
and the other guy and everything that
they want to do to bring in more Tata
and me will change and no buses or
Shabbos everything which I'm not sure
what's going to happen so quickly
still not kiola
still not you the people are dying there
is death there's it's not
the rambam says well we have a mashiach
who will then lead us in the building
the base amigdash that's
and it's a supernatural experience
so what was said what you're having now
and so yesterday we discussed well and I
said you keep us gullies
well keep us going says it's a miracle
I'm asking it's a miracle Jews are
killed in Russia killed in Ukraine
killed all over oppressed pogroms why
shouldn't they run to a place where they
have a safe haven is that called a
miracle
or it's called a very logical thought
out decision let's get away from our
haters let's leave them and just go to a
place where we can have relatively
relative peace yes
a couple comments first of all
um I completely uh appreciate our albums
where I was coming from Alvin and I have
spoken about this welcome back I'm sure
um but I want to say that um I was uh
about two three weeks ago I took my wife
um in the middle of the week we decided
to take some time off but we took her to
Tel Aviv we could walk along the along
the boardwalk and and just spend some
time and I have to say that um sometimes
it could be in certain places and
there's a stroller and it could be
challenging
the school that could be challenging
I've been dolphin knows it's just your
children are Sleepless there in the
middle of Tel Aviv the Tel Aviv certain
parts of Television could be challenging
can be challenging to be there and to
fall listen to remember that urinary
control but this is also Erica strong so
I just that's just one element in other
words you know depending where you are
but I want to bring up issue which is
and I don't know sources I don't know
details but my understanding is that
um that the moment
that the majority
of the Jewish people the majority of
amiso lives within Eric's Israel
that there are certain
elements of halafah that change
could be things relating to shemitah
and I know that I don't think we're
quite there yet but my understanding is
that we're getting close
that approximately half of clients
almost half of cholesterol is living in
there it's a strong enough right so I'm
just I was Raising as an issue I don't
know if it has any well I I yeah
eat
that does not equal just like I told you
yesterday when the debit told the
chabotniks to leave yerushalayim 1968
Arab pesach because after The Six Day
War it seemed like we'll have control of
the heart of bias and therefore even a
carbon pesach let's say that would have
continued until today did does it mean
that there's absolutely not
terms you're obligated to bring a carpet
that evidence say that there being a
human Paris who he relied on for the
sack said he should start building the
basement he never said that because
maybe him doesn't say it because no one
would say it that comes with mashiach
but simultaneously if I look ugly you're
bound to bring a carbon bring your
carbon and at least get out of yerusha
lion so you won't be obligated so do I
say moisture to you that these are
lockers which I'm not a book in them and
you know thank you for bringing it up I
do want to discuss it and ask some
people
what and if what you're saying is the
case
and if anyone knows you should tell me
but even if that's the case my it
doesn't equal so that's the thing though
that we have to keep in mind you have
rum glad you brought up your your
question and your point and and I
understand I understand where you're
coming from but but you have to put
aside feelings that's all I meant to say
feelings are gevaldic but feelings don't
equal halacha as soon as we accept
feelings equal Allah we're in big
trouble all of us you know why I feel
this way you feel this way he or she
feel this way and we make a big chunk
and we create Mr Goss and you know what
I'm talking about
okay Mr Goss everyone says I feel this
way this is Yiddish Guy this is Taylor
the other one says no I feel this way
this is tell you about so we have either
this kind of feeling that's terrible and
that's the beauty of this letter that
we're learning that you'll see it of
yayo is you know it's never it's
inevitable that a person doesn't Express
his feelings in between the lines I
always say that about my writing that's
on human nature but nevertheless look
how he he sticks to text and sources and
citations and and as much as humanly
possible he presents the way he and that
ever see the terrorist View
and and and and therefore what I've
cooked I'm sure presents his toy review
and that's why it's a legitimate this
it's a legitimate disagreement
but but avram neither
rough cook and neither and the Reba
neither the the two sides are basing
their decisions on feelings
that's not a Jewish that's not a
terrible way she just and that you have
to really Bang into your head the rest
of your life and transmitted to your
children and grandchildren because
otherwise and this is what we have it's
exactly what's happening now you know I
turn on the
8 20
um with NPR
I have been three two minutes turn it
off
the liberalism of accepting all of the
new you know gender issues and all that
is just disgusting
and they put on kids
they don't let me decide my gender how's
terrible about 13 years old
I understand that the child has an issue
it it okay we have to deal with it but
don't go and change Humanity that a male
and a female are in a marriage not
other
you understand so I I have sympathy on
on a child a teenager that has certain
leanings you know and and it has to be
dealt with him but but that doesn't
create the reality the reality is
tighter the reality is Humanity for
goyam non-jews if you
civility Law and Order now we have an
issue we have a problem so we have a
court system yes and and you guys and we
have Republicans and Democrats and this
and vote and then voting and that's
that's a system and if you're outvoted
then then you know you're outvoted so
either leave that country
but whatever but but I'm saying is that
from the tighter perspective
Taylor is the objective not the way I
feel and you feel that's good for if I
bring in from a level monkey for story
time it's it's good then I hope I'm
being clear because this is a very
important point and this is what really
creates Maisha all the differences in
the community and the fights and the
issues are the feelings
he feels this way this could be this way
the sheet of this feelings feelings
feelings if we were to remove the
feelings approach and and go to the
objective truth of Taylor we will
disagree
just like the river of cook disagreed
but that's a how lucky Taylor legitimate
disagreement that's to be honored
and and this is very very important
because it's not just here it's in every
issue in every issue of of life and and
as as leading us from Eden in there it's
as well outside the righteous at all how
to go about you know with with respect
and if we do that there will be more
obviously strong
you know that the same person told me he
davins Friday night in habachul even
though he's smart because everyone they
dive in early and he and he says
hellotically it's
the questions and I agree with him not
going to go into those that have an
early it's it's a logically a cooler but
so be it it's been accepted so let's
just right so he goes to Chabad because
that was the time right
so here's an example he's not about he
I've inspired you know but he sees that
in this issue
he he happens to agree with this sheet
of understanding this amount of times
and he wants to Daven that way or for
that matter let's talk about himself
Robert krinsky from America's Chabad
Tells over the story when he was growing
up uh Robert salvation once showed up I
think the first night of pesach at the
habachul his brother had a shoe
um in Boston
and everyone's shocked with salvation he
has a shoe that my monitors uh day
school and in Boston you know in where
he asked us to school what is he I mean
and and a small minion you know it's a
it's a Brisk he let it was the brisk
million their own salvation wanted so he
you know the humbras he didn't put on
anyone else but here we keep the
briskman Hogan from his ancestors and
Friday night he shows up in Chabad
so they asked her myself and was a long
walk 45 minutes it wasn't a short walk
and he said because
it's dominicus with hallel and the
brisket follow and he didn't want to
implement that in the show for some
reason I don't know why and therefore he
put him he didn't say anything Dominion
continued his opinion the way it was and
he inconvenienced himself when he walked
to Chabad
what do we see
that different I mean hug him and
different leaders and different styles
can work together and live together and
appreciate each other in various ways
and it doesn't have to be a fight it
doesn't have to be I'm better than you
and when does the I'm better than you
and the fight begin when we start with
feelings feelings
so you know you know I'm not one to you
know
I love feelings you know that but now
you should know that but nevertheless
nevertheless
the truth and the MS is the Ms and Tate
is the MS
so you know the fact that I feel great
walking down and standing you know and
you know shall I am man on the stones
and on Seventh Heaven or in swazig
and what if someone goes Hillary he
speaks about New Mexico he goes to New
Mexico or he goes to Boulder Colorado
and he looks at the stars and he says
wow baby I love I was in Boulder
Colorado right
and to sleep there of a Shiner I went to
see zombie so he came while they gave me
he said let me take you a little bit
around for a few minutes so 15 minutes
from his house at those beautiful
mountains the Colorado mountains
I'm driving so he takes me over there
mom is like 15 minutes from the house
beautiful mountains and what do I see
there running on the mountains I never
sting my life I thought they were deer
he says my friend these are not there
these are mountain lions
stay in the car if you know what's good
for you and we're going back so for some
reason we stopped you want to show me
this quaint little post office probably
from 100 years ago and he says we're not
going out because guess what a mountain
lion king Tower car but Hashem it went
away
wonders of God the Creator mountain
lions beautiful mountains where I lived
in Marin County and Professor browler
came from from McGill the laborator
scientist he came from Tony says hi and
he says I found gun Aiden on Earth
I've been looking for garnaden on Earth
all my life it ain't a Montreal it ain't
in New York it ain't in Boston we're at
Harvard where I was it's right here in
Marin County in your backyard we can
walk up the beautiful mountains
the fly separated
so you're gonna see in the flavors are
Brighton so so I've run you know you
could you could with feelings you can
get very inspired that that all of these
beautiful places the Grand Canyon and
everything else I have to tell you this
is the wonders of God
nevertheless we say attitude I don't you
know energy said oh this is and then we
have it we have to learn a few words
inside otherwise
um we we need to do that so let's go
into the text now but this was an
important discussion so we're now at kuf
Zion
uh second paragraphs
okay
no commercial being in alumius just as
regarding National nationalism
these religious zionists grabbed onto
this idea
and they took the the saying Israel a
Jew quote a Jewish even though his
sinned Israel who is still a Jew and
they interpreted that to mean that you
could sin and still be a Jew so
therefore
what's important is to identify with the
Jewish nation and the fact that you sin
big deal so they took that hazal and
they used it for their philosophy and
abuela rating the previous part of the
of the letter you know refuted the
argument so the review just says just as
regarding
the the issue of nationalism the
religious zionists grabbed they took
this kazal and they Twisted it to to
endorse their shita
so too regarding the beginning of
redemption issue I said Yiddish
that they grabbed means to grab they
grabbed me
rashidim they quoted yirushamis okay and
major shirashir in Mitra
and and he doesn't give us these
citations here but he's referring to
some citations there
and they use those citations as
justification for a scouted the Gula
says
embold silver means they
um confused or or even more than
confused they they purposely
misinterpreted
and so you know
and again I don't have a text to tell
you what that would be if
your rights to this person it's here is
not the place to show you how they will
massage they they intentionally
interpreted incorrectly with a spin on
the Irish Army and the Methodist to
justify their Sita so I I don't know and
again it would be good to for someone to
if someone could find this out it would
be great and we could learn it and
discuss it let's go further
okay and to the point that the mahabara
to save up to the Great
khufa period
because he writes himself
butter that if you look at the words of
the rambam it's clear should call us
Carlos
okay yes sir if he's still here yeah
he's there
that that cool fact deila which which is
of the opinion that is
he himself quotes the rambam and he says
that the rambam says that the other
won't begin
till we have to Cato
not that we have gav in Gatherings he
cites
you see that's why I said it sir that's
what they're relying on he agrees that
the rambam says so and so this is what I
said earlier but nevertheless either
xiaoming and the mother should have seen
him say otherwise and we're following
them that's why I concluded what I said
before that it seems to me the shiter of
cook and others is that they know about
the but they disagree with the number
and they say they have we have our
sources to rely on and it's exactly what
he says here
okay we'll stop here I have another
sheer but uh tomorrow we'll continue
what just before you go I've got a
little bit of a difficult question uh on
all this yeah those people who who said
who called the ready mashiach yes
according to to uh has said that the
saman that they were in when the Refuge
was in the world was the uh
okay those people that believe that the
rabbit could be the mashiach which
according to the rambam there is a
classification of that it's it's there
could be it has nothing to do with with
gaullah
uh-huh
remember the Ula begins after we have a
mashiach
so then that so your question is a very
good question because then there is
now if what's that term again
says the first stage is that you're
allowed to say about someone who meets
the criteria that he it has the
potential of me being mashiach but only
after Bingham base amigdash do we know
that he's
so even those people that called the
rabbit mashiach would not say that now
if there are some that do they need a
good doctor but we're not going to go
there because I don't see a base
amigdush if you find a base amigdush
then tell me I would love to see the
base Amigos 770 is a great place and a
holy place and a wonderful place and
um I'll be the first one to to tell you
about that as I showed moisha the the
wonders of 770 but it's not the place of
English it's a miniature base but it's
not the base I mean there's a rambam so
to go and say that we have a base am
ignition
uh I don't know what they're smoking
anyone else says something to say
and and and and I love every Jew and I
really do I love every Mr Chris I really
do but you know you got you gotta you
know whenever if you could prove me
wrong I'll be the first one to be my dad
I have no no issues yes my
this is what I really really what I was
speaking about before because I think
about this a lot um that those feelings
like what we're speaking about the
feelings of of some of this versus
convenience to struggle because I I've
heard this many many times from people
it can be in the usual and they can be
medical so they can they can feel very
inspired I think it's great I know
myself when I get off the airplane and
every time I get out and I start driving
back and I driving on Highway one and I
see the beautiful fields of Erica soil
and I look towards the mountains of
ushalayim
something about it to me speaks to me
very very strongly I just want to
emphasize I think it's also always so
important that when we're near to straw
that there are places that we might go
like I said before that we might not
feel that way and it's important this is
I guess this is editorial like it's just
it's important to take those feelings
that will have inspiration and when
we're in places in there it's as well
that we don't feel them or dafka it
might actually bring us down we have to
make sure we take those feelings and
turn turn wherever we are turn this
situation around that also to have the
inspiration in place as a nurse so as
well and look at every Jew you know even
though they may not look that Jew may
not look so inspired so to speak we have
to go and appreciate every Jew that's
narrative spell it's just like just like
we would in places that we do feel
naturally inspired right right
I can tell you from my daughter and
son-in-law and grandchildren living
there and going there and being there
over the years that
walking sometimes in the street there is
very difficult and I'm talking about
it's Lee Association I'm talking about
you know with the ponytails and and the
motorcycles and it's it's really sick
it's a very sick you know but but that's
what they're there for and that's why
you're that six seven hundred people you
didn't have room to come into the shoe
six seven hundred people in in in the in
in their new shoe which they bought
because they outgrew the other one no
so I'm just saying that's why the devil
sends him to places to to because
they're far even they're they're eating
and we don't and we know the history of
Tel Aviv used to be such a from area the
bells are rapper settled in Tel Aviv not
your original because there wasn't one
uh turkey One Church in Tel Aviv
and he and your slime there was and he
didn't want he wanted to be in a place
he said I'm settling there everyone was
shocked he had he would go for the
summer go for a few weeks whatever
okay having a good conversation everyone
will see everyone tomorrow bye bye
