Ruth #7: A Sword in the Beis Midrash -- Part 4 -By Rabbi YY Jacobson

[Music] you know they tell the story about Federation fundraisers in Atlanta they were looking for a Jewish wealthy guide to be able to help them support Jewish causes and the State of Israel so they opened a telephone book and they encountered this guy his name is mr. cohen sam calling the owns whole branch of shoe stores these are the pre-google days but the jew Jews and Jewish fundraisers especially had their own Google the shoulder may cover some other sources and they find out that this guy is really well-to-do stay phone to make an appointment but he rejects every attempt to make an appointment so as good Jewish fundraisers do one day they show up at the store they knock on the door they want to meet mr. Sam Cohen mr. Cohen comes to the door and they present themselves their fundraising for the Federation they would like to meet him he looks at them and he says my dear fellows I'm gonna tell this to you once and only once I Sam Cohen is not Jewish my brother my partner in this business David Cohen is also not Jewish my father Larry Cohen Oliver Solomon was also not Jewish and my grandfather Jack Schmo Tuvia Benelli okay and all of our Shalom was also not Jewish now leave us alone well we are dealing in these classes and we're now in the seventh class on the book of Ruth a sword in the bass Madras part for we have been dealing with a similar but opposite situation and that is the greatest king of Israel his Jewish identity is being doubted for generations as we have learned in the previous classes chapter four verse tells us the story that when boss the great Jewish personality and leader wants to marry the Moabite Conover truth there is resistance the one who was a closer kin sermon says I will not marry her he does not want to marry her panache this I'm going to destroy my family lineage what was he fearful about Rashi explains it's not explicit in the verse but Rashi and all the common many commentators explained he was fearful because of the simple fact that Ruth was a Moabite convert and the Torah prohibits Moabite and ammonite converts to marry regular Jews boas however rejects this notion and he does marry ruse and yet her identity as a Jew remains shrouded in doubt and questions in enigma to the extent that her grandson her son son Yishai we learned last week separates from his wife at some point because he feels unworthy to be with his spouse because he comes from a mall of ice his grandmother was Russa Moe of icon Evert is he allowed to be married to his wife who's a regular Jewish woman he may not be separated from his wife he has a son David who'd later would become Dov anomalous King David and we learned the Gemara mystery of all mystifying government base that Doeg the leader of the sun had in the Jewish Supreme Court tells King sho sho lamella saw the King wind of it comes back from his victory against the giant Goliath he tells Shaw lamella there is a question in mahogany lovely Bacall if he's really a full-fledged rube until Easter brings a sword X's it into the earth the ground of the base meadows of the yeshiva and says that he has a tradition from the best in from the court of Shmuel Hanavi small or a must-see Samuel the Prophet my Aviva Lloyd Maya vez the Torah prohibition against ammo of icon her to marry a regular drew applies only to Moe avoid males not to females and the great question was asked how is it why isn't that the greatest king of Israel David the father of the Davidic dynasty David and then Solomon dominant slamming the entire dynasty of mouse who's based of it the lineage which there's the progenitor of none other than mushiya who must be a descendant of David and Schlemmer and yet about this very family there's a question concerning their very Jewish identity and even after there is a verdict there's a sword in the basement and there's a verdict my of evil a my of is as they saying neither shagged liquors make it rough and finally David amela has a note I'm a full fledged Jew tonight we're going to discuss this and Nigam on three levels the lineage the mystery and the promiscuity we're going to explore the year as the lineage of Ruis of King David of the entire family which results ultimately in Messiah who according to Jewish law and tradition as their album rights and helices Malacca and the laws of Kings that mashiac is going to be Missouri Davi - lemur from the descendants of David and Solomon Mellish me baised oven in the words of their our King from the house of love it we're going to discuss three aspects the lineage the mystery and the promiscuity first the lineage why did this happen why did God make that the Davidic family the dynasty of mouth was of royalty the Father there's a - the grandfather of mushiya there should be a question lingering for generations as to their status as Jews the mahara the great thinker philosopher rabbi leader rabbi yehuda leave of Prague Czechoslovakia today who lived in the 16th century has a book dedicated to the Jewish Redemption called net sake sir all the Eternity of Israel and that says he stole the mahara whose writings are very complex and difficult to understand drops an insight a very powerful insight and the morale tells us giving the example of a tree every tree has its components and as the tree propagates other tree's we use the seeds of the tree to yet plant new trees the trees that come from the original tree will have similar properties to its source to its progenitor it still carries the gene of its parent the offspring shears the genes of its parents if you want a new element in the tree you must graft it's from another tree you must bring into this tree a dynamic and energy from another tree if you're just going to have this tree and then its seeds will propagate new trees you're going to remain with the same properties if you want something new if you want a new energy if you want a freshness if you want a new contribution to this tree you must bring the branch a branch of another tree in grafted into this tree and suddenly this tree will now have a new component which will add a dynamic that it lacked on its own the Jewish nation says the morale is a nation it has its father's its mother's its patriarchs and matriarchs which continue their gene to their children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren and it's a nation with its unique properties and dynamics like every night like every nation every culture every civilization and it continues that way mushiya is going to represent a new revolutionary energy revolutionary even for the Jewish people and for the Royals it's something new in the Jewish consciousness and the Jewish identity in order to introduce this new concept a new plant had to be brought into this old plant there had to be grafting from another tree from we're luck tomorrow the further the newer it could be from a tree nearby that's a relative of this treats the same family may not be the same she's the same family she's already bringing in a familiar dynamic most like you know where you're Mary of family friend a family relative its new blood but it's similar blood you can go to a distance REE from a different family from a different brand breed and then you breed a new dynamic but it's still not that distant so the newness is also missing scepter morale what's the most distant reality from the Jewish people Armin and Maya Ayman and mayor of the terraces low your veil my name I'll be back I'll watch them add oil or even an Egyptian who converts Torah says the third generation of the converts can already marry a regular Jew first two generations not but the third is fine Ayman and Maya is add oil um hundreds of generations later the seed of Amon and why they cannot marry ordinary juice people have been asking why what was so bad with Amon and may of why the Egyptians yes and Ayman and my of not all nations you convert your part of the Jewish people there's no difference Egyptian you have to wait two generations I'm an admirer forever why I'm not gonna get into this at the moment but all the commentators and parishes kiss aid say dear Ashley Durham bombed the clay your core the midrash of the sea free they're all discussed this it's beyond the discussion of tonight's class what was the uniqueness of Amon and my earth but the morale says it's the most distant from Clairol the most distant of the Jewish people that's where machine comes from that seed of Ammon and Moab was now brought into the Jewish people that was grafted into the Jewish gene machine must come from there cuz machine something new unprecedented revolutionary that shocks even the system of Judah to the Jewish people themselves mashiac introduces an energy and a dynamic that is revolutionary even for the Jewish world even for the Jewish people as much as we prepare for it it's a revolutionary concert revolutionary idea to make godliness as real as physicality to bring forth in the most revealed and palpable and concrete way the inner soul of the universe of the Torah of every human being of every Jew so mushiya comes from the furthest type of tree in his and that that branch is now grafted that's reintroduced into the Jewish nation so there's a seed that is transmitted in the Jewish people that's very alien it's very foreign and that must be the seed of mouth who's based of it of mystery axe which will revolutionize the Jewish world let's let's try to activist and explain it more one of the great ascetic masters and writers was known as the shame we Shmuel it's a book authored by arab small borange Dane Bernstein Bernstein small of SAR chav he was a rabbi in search of a city in Poland his father was about ROM Bernstein the Avenue nazar who was a son-in-law of the kotsky Rebbe Rabbi Menachem Mendel Morgenstern Marg instead and the Seamus mu L whose name was rips nor of small of subjects of in his and in a writing in a toy that he said on Lewis tough race I am tough finish iron would be 1910 a couple of years ago has a Toyota that's published in shameless small school stuff they're saying I want to learn with you this trailer he says open up please source number one dr. Seamus Newell he quotes his grandfather his father his mother his mother's father was the cut score ever dr. Hajra Hakodesh me cuts cuts out the kaviraja mark the holy master of cuts cuts keys a city in Poland with a cut score ever was famous there he was the Reverend cuts on my he once said Indian a malucia Lorien EMSA be sure all the concept of royalty of maluca was non-existent in the Jewish world but you take him liquor size may I'm lying or mayor of out Commissioner the Jews had to obtain this quality of our stock receipt of kingship from a man and my of the Jews didn't have one on their own the silver the Cossack Assad's why not waha Peters portions his grandson distinguish rule says the explanation is simple Kiba shakily sir all Kish Akkad Hema since all the Jewish people are like one human being we are like one body one organism in a science after you started I'll have a day it's not possible that one should rule over his friend can we Shana even shabanam we started Oliver - just as one limb in the human body cannot rule over another limb why because they all sense that they're one there's a holistic unity that defines the entire body which is integrated and interconnected as one entity one organism so thus the Jewish people are one person essentially even though our bodies are divided it's one reality to one people it's one body the concept of a mela could not exist the concept of a king whom i should've ate all of our Shalom Shyam Ellen what about my show who was a king the Torah says by sugar Malek about my son who Maximus saw you lived on the cloud yes sir moisture was separated from the Jewish people lionex of suka Avram a very a cloud he wasn't considered only as a limb one of the limbs of the entire body rock chuckle Misha can negate call you sir Oh mush actually is equivalent as the sages say to all of Israel it's interesting oh so much it didn't grow up by the Jews much they grew up in an Egyptian home their veneza asks and choice why did God make it at the first Redeemer of the Jewish people should not grow up among Jews the first area of Chloe's law wasn't he didn't grow up with Jersey group not only are not among Jews he grew up in the palace of the arch enemy of the Jewish people Pharaoh never never ever ever Nazeri gives two fabulous reasons one reason he says it's an expression ain't no vbe oh you can't be a prophet in your own City if moisture would have grown up among the Jews he could have never really risen to sites that he rose because there was over there would always be an old man or with telus I remember you in your diapers I remember you and used to run around the soul and fight for a lollipop you know there's always the old friends the classmates who will never let you forget who you once were why she came from an outside source he could be a real leader the second idea that Vanessa says a very daring idea if motion would have grown up among the Jews II would have had a slave mentality he would never be able to revolutionize Egypt here we have another dynamic I'm mentioning this because it's interesting moisture could be a king over the Jews he didn't grow up among the Jews but the point is there's no kingship among the Jews you can't really be a king all the cuts through you so little I'm a look at me I'm a know Moya that's why the Jews had to obtain the concept of maluca from where from Amman and may of why these two nations Misha clip Ismail who gave us the energy of Maya is exaltedness commercial Morocco's of deposit says yes iota Zion Isaiah 16 some man who go in May of gaming I'd we have heard about the exaltedness of my of gave me I eat very arrogant very lofty volcano son averaged over time Alec Oliver Shalom to achieve you but as Clippers my own thus the soul of David was submerged in captivity in the shell of my of kadai Lloyd seeing a nice NASA smack clipper Ola VL had to do sure least NASA leash died really shame shame I am in order to retrieve the concept of exaltedness and loftiness from the negative forces and bring it to holiness to be exalted and to rule for the sake of heaven sewed of it comes from weird of it comes from them family of Maya of his grandmother his great-grandmother was Roose who was a mole white almond as well because Salomon Schlemmer mela married an ammonite convert her name was nama and their child was recovered who was the King that succeeded King Solomon after he died and the whole dynasty of baised of it goes from Dovid to Schlemmer who marries an ammonite women to women to recover and then continuing recovers children and so forth all the way till the king of machine who comes from that lineage of David Loy man his son and so forth Amon and Wyeth now I want to tell you that not exactly the same but almost a very similar idea I saw in the ZOA desire harder sunroofs page i in hospitai in test 78 79 tells us an insight listen to this a king must possess two qualities on one hand the king must be very humble if a king is arrogant he's a dangerous could be a dangerous man a king must be more humble than everybody else because of his position because it's a position through which you can use you can easily abuse anybody who has given power it can become very dangerous and if you're given excessive power you could become excessively dangerous and therefore you must have not regular humility but excessive humility we know in Jewish law everybody boughs down by Sh - or Bora ha - and then you lift your head up and you stand erect but the governor says in bravas hemella Kievan Shakur achieving his 80th a Jewish King once he boughs down in the beginning of Sh - in the beginning of prayer he's not let a lift up his head till the end his head must be bent down more than any other Jew he must feel the presence of God his responsibility to God his service to God more than everybody else that's one quality a king has to have but if a king is only humble if a king is only a HOSA can't be a king as a leader you must have strength and you must have a lot of strength and you must be able to make very tough decisions and some of these decisions are very harsh and there has to be an element of toughness in the king that can be sometimes misconstrued as cruelty it's a certain form of azureus a certain strength of character to be able to make tough decisions to be able to lead your people and to be able to protect your people sometimes when you're surrounded by very heavy enemies from within and from without if you're not going to possess a profound strength of leadership of character you're going to compromise your people says desire this was the problem the problem was the Jewish people can produce humble kings but they couldn't produce tough Kings they couldn't produce strong Kings they couldn't produce a king that has an element of of what seems like as arias what seems like cruelty yes they had to get from my off and that's why mm Allah had to come from my earth this stuff it got from the gene of Roose and Shlomi got it from ruse and all the kings of baised of it that's where they got it from they got this quality from Moya now look at a fascinating thing so hemella King Solo proceeded of it didn't have this and what was his greatest down full as great as downfall was he lacked the courage necessary for leadership in fact these are the very words that Shmuel Hanavi tells soul after soul was told to go and eliminate the nation of our Malik who were the arch enemies of the Jewish people and in every generation had one agenda to destroy every Jew man woman and child from the day they left Egypt and soul had compassion and soul did not do the job right completely what was the Schmalz opening words to show in the name of God so take a look at source number two Jacque Shmuel I'm Alistair Shaw by Amish small small town soul hello iam cautery natebain a car a shifty Charlotte you may be small in your own eyes but you're the head of the tribes of Israel I am shocked a flash have lamella Cairo and God anointed you to become a king over the Jewish people isn't this de story of so many lives in cata natebain at her you look in the mirror and you say it when I caught in I'm a nobody I'm small I'm insignificant I'm valuable AB irori shifty sir laughter buy in Chicago a sham lamella how you slow God anointed you to be a king you're a Royce you're a leader people look up to you how could you duck how could you be fearful and that's why so lost his kingship suck this is are you hi Ricardo generous this is what money of contributed to the Jewish people he couldn't get this from the Jew from the Jews II wouldn't get this I mean we see this in Jewish history we don't have to go far take a look at the Jewish people today take a look at Israel somebody once said Jew makes a fist sure makes a fist what's the next step a sham new b'god new goes down the well hey Donna little Vanessa I was reading an article by an Israeli writer some time ago 40 years after the victory of the six-day war in 1967 he wrote an article in The New York Times and he was almost apologetic for the Jewish people winning the war it was almost like a feeling if he would have lost the war great beautiful we're used to losing we won I give all what do you do with victory it's very hard for the Jewish people to deal with victory you see in Israel they were ready and they continued to be ready to stretch out their sword for the sake of peace the greatest curse you can do for a Jew is convince him that he's cruel convince him that he's immoral and this is where the Arab propaganda was extremely successful they tried to win Israel in a territorial military military military war they would defeat it but you know where they were triumphant over Israel sadly unfortunately they convinced the Jewish people that we are immoral that were cruel that were occupiers that were abusers and this destroyed some of the moral fabric of Israel and its leaders and it's academics and it's journalists that's how you defeat the Jews convinced a Jew that he's immoral convinced Andrew that he's cruel convinced a Jew that he's too strong and you can win them that's how they won Israel that's how they won the fight with Israel the convinced Israel that way of moral Jews have a very deep challenge when it comes to leadership when it comes to victory when it comes to fighting a fight that you have to fight for the sake of Allah not for arrogance and for abuse but for justice for peace it's not that we it's a very difficult thing for us you know the story a few years ago and they did they tell the anecdote that was the economy in Israel was doing very bad so the Knesset members had a meeting what do we do why don't we boost the economy so somebody came with a brilliant suggestion let's the clear war in the United States of America just like Germany and Japan did and what happened the America destroyed Germany and Japan and then they built them into economic superpowers will do the same thing will declare war against America merica will wipe us out and then they'll rebuild us into an economic superpower one old Knesset member gets up and says there's one problem what happens if we win the war what happens if we win if we lose is great but what happens if we win we don't know we know what to do when we lose we sigh we grow and we lament them we complain that the world hates us but what are you doing you win nobody knows we're apologizing 40 years that we want this was Scholes to our challenge governor Mela had to have a gene from Moya in order to be a king now you understand about the sword now you understand the swords this is what I believe can be used to explain that enigmatic story that we have been regurgitating already for a few weeks a sword in the basement is part 1 part 2 part 3 now part 4 what happens there's a question if dove it is Jewish trees not Jewish or I should say if double is a lot of marry a Jewish why freeze now letter marry a Jewish wife why his great-grandmother was a mall white woman everybody is questioning and everybody is debating it in the is Sheva they're about to announced of it as disqualified from marrying the Jewish woman he can marry another Moabites Conover he can marry some other people he cannot marry a regular Jewish woman has discussed last week asaram amorous comes Easter ah who's a brother-in-law takes a sword puts it in the base Medicine says whoever doesn't accept this how long he duck here but Sheriff what type of language is this whoever doesn't accept this will be stabbed we have a tradition from small that I'm boa white the woman who converts as a full-fledged Roo could marry anybody there's no problem with of it he comes from rules loose married boyars it's fine the lineages on blemish you need a sword the sword perhaps was explaining the secret behind this whole story so last avenue a shawl asked arvind air is this young lad hagen l'm a locust is he worthy of being a king so doc says you're asking if he's worthy of being a king why don't you ask if he's worthy of being a jew and that so the whole debate began in the Kumari of our Messiah involved that we discussed a few weeks ago will be discussed the last few weeks now he puts in a sword in the basement rish because after everything Sun and done well tells us that my Aviva why my love is but the question is does it really make sense that his very Jewishness has put on question naught Sahara Bab asymmetric the sword answers it a king must be very humble a king at his core must be very humble and very kind and very sensitive if a king is not good at his core he's dangerous and history has proven this what kings and monarchs and leaders and tyrants have done to people to their subjects and there were levels but a king that must also have a sort but the Jewish people had always a problem with that and that's why I dove it had to come from Maya and that's what Yeshua was explaining Houston was married into the family yes remarried avi Galu was dove animalic sister he knew his sister he knew his father-in-law Yishai he knew his brother in Lord of it why did this happen because David MLF needs a sword mouse whose bass dove it needs a care of not just a rose not just an olive drab of branch mayavi villain my office through the Moabite woman this quality was given to the Jewish people kingship can be created enduring kingship can recreate it - mm Allah there's another element here and for this element we opened up a Gomorrah source number three we're gonna learn a piece of Gomorrah so I gotta go Mario you met off of Basel midbass Oh Maria da marshmallow w-who descent in the name of shmoop MEAP name Marlene MSHA Kemal who's based Scholl why did the royalty of the house of soul Madan der lip initially hire boy um doofy because in the life of Saul there was no blemish you hear the words we know Sholem Elif was a king from the tribe of Benjamin and it did not under his royalty was taken from him why who succeeded him dovid hemella had not after much persecution and hunting down by his father and was all because Saul's daughter married of it David so w-who this says why did this happen to show there was no defeat there was no blemish I would think it's the other way around dr. Kumar Adama remember Sharia Shimon Ben your height Southwark rabbi Yochanan said in the name of rabbi Shimon his son duryodhan a meeting Paris a lot seaboard Elian Cain Cooper shall shruts employ matter if you not appoint a leader on the community only if there is a container of dead insects a container of insects of shruts n' hanging on his back shame to zuid idea love so that if he becomes arrogant a medium-low you tell him cause early I say that's a turnaround and look at your back you don't appoint a leader if he doesn't have a box of skeletons hanging down his back so you can always tell him turn around suck Rashi shall I tell you about you shouldn't die official didn't have a blemish meaning misspoken and his family these go I'm I love him I ate some is Arielle you sir all the Kings will come out of his children would become arrogant and boastful over Israel I will dove in major samurai Vyasa the Vera Mela comes from rooster Moabite this issue is not a problem Cooper shall shot some Rashi says do you finish possibly machine the family I want you to understand what Rashi with the Gemara is telling us the problem of King Saul you know why is royalty didn't endure because there was no blemish in the family that's a reason it should be the other way around if there is a blemish the kingship should endure if there's a blip there's no blemish perfect something amar and no if you come from a perfect family you cannot be a leader because you or your children and your grandchildren will start feeling arrogant and they'll abuse their throne Dov 'add he was a perfect candidate you know why cuz he comes from the mo of Isis you understand what this means for a Jewish leader to succeed to endure when there has to be a blemish Wendover Dom Ellis got up to give a speech somebody didn't like what he said there was always somebody in the back row he said tell me as I eat this guy is Jewish who is his Papa eyes but it was rules Moabites from whites family ah so he's telling us what to do disqualified him when moisture I mean he got up to give his speech the guy in the back didn't like his speech you know what he saying what my saddle and when she seemed in my saloon and Slovakia embrace intell's and slots in cabinets in Groton a rotten in baranovichi which is even vulajin Alabama which we did by shall learn ah he got Smith hit by para Mary my eyes that's it you don't have to listen to the message you disqualify the purser with all the Jewish kings from top of the militia was no problem the family was blemished let me tell you about his grandmother let me tell you about her old life you know what the problem with Shaw was nobody had anything to say you can open up all the filing cabinets you can google his family history he was perfect and because he was perfect he couldn't be a king his kingship couldn't endure because just as a king has to have strength but he must be very humble and it's this quality in the family of governor Miller that maintained a balance it gave them perspective it always allowed them to see themselves as human beings not as divine the problem when you come from such a perfect family is you sometimes and you're so talented and you're so righteous and you're so good as that sometimes you forget how human you are and the boundaries between the human being and God are blurred and that becomes very dangerous when you start worshiping yourself and your decisions not because you're a bad guy because you're a good guy you're too good you understand so love it had to come from ruse this is why the malkos can endure was an element of humility there this covers lineage why this is the lineage of Jewish kingship of David the flame of Mercia I now go to theme number 2 mystery why are so many relationships marriages in this family shrouded in layers upon layers of confidentiality of secrecy of mystery let's look for a moment and how this family evolves we've mentioned this throughout the classes but let's understand how this family evolves and how strange it is the main male character in ruse is bias by us aleem Elif dies his sons masculine and Killian died the two main women heroines and Naomi and her daughter lor roost and the man of Roose the man of roses bias although it's no question rusev is a book about a woman the name is Roose just like Esther's about Esther the name is not McGillis murder five asteroids McGillis Esther this is not McGillis boyars reduce its McGillis ruse there's no question that the feature the central character of the book is Roose maybe Naomi I guess the interplay between the two mother-in-law daughter-in-law not by us and will soon understand why bias is not passive he's active but relative to Naomi and Ruth he's passive he's a recipient things happen to him he's a middle-of-the-night he finishes windowing his grain he goes to sleep he eats and the middle of his sleep the moment the best the peak of passivity you're doing nothing is sleeping Roose approaches the middle of the night he's very passive and it's very significant but the main male character in the book is boyars who does boyars come from bias comes from the tribe of you hood with us boy as a seed come from it begins with you who then Palmer that famous story we discussed in parishes by Asaph Tamar was you who does son and daughter-in-law and both of her husband's died you who does both whose oldest sons died a and ina and Tom are in a desperate situation and deadlock you heard that did a wanted to marry his third son Shayla nor was she being released to marry anybody else cloaks herself in the garments and garments she appears to you that as a harlot he does not recognize who she is and as he's on his way to shear his flock he encounters this woman who's really Tom er his daughter and Loyd perceives her as a harlot they have relation she becomes pregnant he thinks his daughter will committed adultery he finds out it was from him in the brilliant twist that Tom er does you all know the story I discussed it and it's uncommon in VHF and you hood admits the truth me many I'm the one who impregnated her and she has twins parrots and Zahra and parrots is a great great great grandfather of boyars the man in ruse so the relationship between hood and Tom Moore is not an ordinary relationship father-in-law daughter-in-law he thinks he's a harlot he doesn't know who he's living with she cloaks herself in order to accomplish it we know what the MAF Arsham explained the magician that she's scoony and there a man that before the Torah was given Leverett marriages were not only with brothers-in-law but also the closest family kin and since he would not marry her - her son Schaller or brother-in-law so the next step was her father-in-law so tumblr was acting perfectly legally but you who disrespected her of adultery kuzey didn't know that she had relations with her father-in-law he thought she had relationships with somebody else while she willows the stranger while she was bound up in their marriage to Shayla which is why yo this said she should get burnt and then she proved them in a most dignified way by sending him the collateral that he gave her during the relations have been saying the man who owns this is the one who impregnated Melia sure a Lillian I see her about yeah qu the Bayou Mertz upcoming Annie you had the confesses as sin and says it's for me and by the way here I must make a parenthetical mode you who does the grandfather of mushiya why was you who the chosen to be the grandfather of mushiya we know why my of was we explained it the humility and the strength desires explanation and the Kumari new Madhav's obeys that's one side of mushy if that's the side of Roose what about boyars Yehuda so there's different interpretations but one very important interpretation is this moment you who de gets up publicly and says me many it was me imagine a few moments ago you who the sentenced her to death why she's an adulterous woman she committed adultery she was bound up to shaylen she went out of the family she committed adultery he sentenced her to death suddenly you who realizes it was him it was nobody else he was the one who impregnated Tamra no you who do was a leader at his time he was the King of the tribes he was a recognized personality what would overheat what would a top leader a top rabbinic scholar do if he realizes that he sentenced somebody innocent to death you hood that could have easily come up and said I I forgot there's some safe fit as I need to be there's a piece of Chewbacca Vega I figure there's a truther and I could exonerate her you who did didn't do that by yaki you the value amit sadh call me Manny stood up and he said it was me I'm the one who had relations with her God says he could be the father of dynasty he could be the grandfather of mushiya who royalty could come from him because the most important thing about a leader is integrity transparency honesty truth ability to stand up and say it was me that's what made Haley & his family qualified for royalty do you know the conversations that week about the hood I mean imagine that chief rabbi of a city never mind of a country gets up on the bin and shoppers and says that woman sentenced to death me man me it was me the partially learned assigns the conversation the discussions that's what you hood to did because it was true he stood up to the truth to his truth God says this is the person you can trust with kingship these are the leaders you can trust somebody who never allows their ego to stand in the way of integrity is what's necessary for leadership you could be honest you could be vulnerable you can be humbled and you're not a dangerous person you can be trusted with power granted but I won't forget the relationship how did it come about a father more with a daughter and walk cloaked he thinks Jesus eyelashes are parrots is board ultimately biases born what's the next step boy has Mary's ruse how does boyars mary ruse not a regular regular you have a that's not looking a matchmaker meet each other no in the middle of the night she approaches him in the field via accurate boyish trembles by he'll office he's grasped he's frightened who are you and she says a knife Huson massa I'm ruse your mate spread your cloak over me marry me again not a regular relationship not a regular marriage it comes about in a mysterious way and they give it birth to a child Eva Dino Eva the father of yishai and what happens with you sure you all know what happens with you John last week's class the met rich tells us he tries separated from his wife and he asked his maid to prepare herself he liberated has made his command night maid servant and she told his wife what's happening and the wife dressed up as the maid then you shared intimacy with his wife and he thought it was his maid again and who's the father of that child who is the child of that relationship King David so where's David born from a physical relationship in which the husband did not know who the woman was he thought it was one person who was another person go back to last week's class for all the details this is Baez's side right i disgust you hood i disgust boy as I discussed Issa well in order they same it's how the Husson omits out a collar now look at the calcite dove it comes from yishay comes from or even he comes from Boas comes from you hood and Tom art now go to the collar side ruse she's a Moabite how does the mole white nation start you know the moment there's none lights was intoxicated by his daughter's after the destruction of his name they were in a cave the sages say the daughters thought the world was destroyed the Torah tells us apart is my era the two daughters of light who was saved from the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah said our Father is gonna die there won't be any future let's get him drunk and we'll have intimacy with them on the high MLV news era we'll get seat from our Father and that's what happens and the first daughter lives with her father that night he's drunk and she becomes pregnant that she gives birth to a child and she names him Maya which means from the father from my father the boy's father and grandfather were the same person his father was light his mother was Lloyd's daughter that's where ruse comes from she's a Moabite that's the nation of life the second order names her son a mon that's where the ammonite nation comes from in fact this is one of the explanations in clay ochre and others why Ammon and Maya were designated to be excluded because promiscuity is at the core of their being in the very genesis of their existence promiscuity and immorality and relationships and that's a nassima to Jewish existence the power of Jewish existence was modesty the appropriate boundaries between when men and women the integrity of family life the purity and holiness of family life some people don't understand how important and vital that was and is for Jewish existence that's who s comes from light is drunk and he lives with his daughter and they have a child and the child is my f now ruse converts and she marries Baez again in unconventional ways and how does she do it she doesn't but lot secretly the Turner says in ruse chapter chapter three ballets quickly she goes into the fields so look what you have here you have here a relationship a daughter with a father a daughter a daughter who becomes pregnant from her father a daughter-in-law becomes pregnant from her father-in-law a convert who sneaks into the granary to sleep near her future husband to lie near future husband by us a woman who cloaks herself as her maid to be with her husband and in each one there is deception light gets drunk Tamar gets dressed like a Zona harlots he shy his wife a ruse sneaks in the middle of the night unconventionally and Yishai his wife goes into a dark room to replace her maid and if you don't see a pattern here let me ask you witness you who to come from he comes from Leia and what happened with Leia how did she begin her relationship Yakov thought she was wrong Jacob thought she was Rachel instead of Rachel it was really late he didn't know where works that night he didn't know if I yard by boy carrying AE Leia partials by Yeats say in the morning he saw was Leia so Leia was also perceived as rock hello so dressed up that's the beginning of the relationship again in mystery he didn't know it was when we now take what the Kabbalah teaches in safer icon in my I do the house on rooster banished iron ruse to say that our ideas brings it in buyers Andrews there were reincarnation here you who the soul was a reincarnation from light and you who the soul reincarnated in Tobias light is the gematria eighteen in small numbers llama three valves six Tests nine mr. cotton is eighteen you hood then small numbers is twenty-one light is 18 years is 21 because light soul is reincarnated three times eighteen nineteen twenty twenty-one light you hood then bias women there's also reincarnation the daughter of Lights who gave birth to Maya was reincarnated into Tamar Tamar is reincarnated interests in fact tomorrow's both aberration of an ass off so there's a consistent pattern and an evolving pattern in each of their relationships there is mystery there is secrecy light is drunk he doesn't know that he's living with his daughter you who dares not drunk you hooda knows he's having relations but he doesn't know with whom he knows what he's doing but he doesn't know his whom he's doing it light doesn't know what he's doing and not with whom he's doing it you hood that knows what he's doing but not with whom he thinks it's a stranger he doesn't know what's his daughter-in-law Tama by us initially he doesn't know what's happening rose shocks him he's passive he's ignorant ruse is the one who initiates it and I'm alone it was her mother-in-law and I only his mind at all he shy again mystery doesn't know what's happening he thinks it's his maid his maid told his wife to come in it's a dark room his wife came in instead of the maid he's lives with his wife that's he thinks it's his maid he doesn't know it just like you would you had the thought at somebody else yes I thought at somebody else and there is mm Ella now look at a fascinating thing in every case the women know exactly what's happening there behind it all the men are clueless I guess history hasn't changed much men are still clueless somebody once asked if a computer is masculine or feminine and the answer was computers are masculine they retain enormous amounts of data but they remain clueless I still think computers are feminine because computers forget nothing whatever you put into a computer remains forever it's not in the software it's and the hardware pl'anna the hardware it's in the chip but it's somewhere it's gonna come out one day and fire virus you but in any case let's now get off our subject the men are still clueless and the women made my second solo Indian look what's happening light is asleep he's drunk his daughters run the show then they do everything their completely active Yehuda is not drunk but he's close Tomer does everything she knows exactly what's happening she's living with you he doesn't know the same is with Boyer's and rules he's passive she's active Yishai is clueless again he's not drunk but he's clueless his wife is the one who does everything the same as with yeah career ocular layer Yaakov doesn't know who knows Rachel and Leia they know they made the switch Leia agreed to switch to Ruckle agreed to let her daughter sister go instead of her and that's what happens this is the mystery I'm referring to the secrecy shrouded in secrecy the men not the women the women know what's happening an explanation to this will be understood based on the fact that when rusyn Iommi come back to base left him from o of how do they support themselves they don't have money they did not want to collect charity as I explained that's why they didn't go to their cousins who were wealthy they did not want anybody to do them favors they lived in a way a very deep dignity they didn't want anybody to do them favors they don't own anybody something they follow Jewish law and Jewish law allows poor people to glean from the fields and take the leftover grain that the owners of the farms and the fields forget and leave behind this is not charity it's law and as the Book of Ruth indicates that one of the ways that Ruth got grain was what we call sheekha what's shikka shikka ka-boom and you harvest your grain you're a wheat your barley your spelt your oats your rye whatever it is and then you make bundles you make sheaves as they're called if you forget one sheaf in the field you're now let it go and retrieve it you have to leave it for the poor people for orphans for widows for the destitute for the homeless for the needy it's a fascinating majestic law if it's more than one bundle that you forgot you had a group of bundles a group of sheaves then you're allowed to go and retrieve it but if you forgot one bundle one chief you're now letting go and retrieve it this is called the law of Shikha the midst of Shikha so Roose went to the fields she happened to go to the field of Boas and that's how she got her grained now when Baez meets her we learned in Chapter two and now you must listen to this boy Estelle's his people he says I want you to make believe that you forgot sheaf and sheaves in the field isolated sheaves so she could come and take it soil touch struggler make-believe you forgot so Roose gets her grain from that which has been forgotten she Kika and boyars wants them to make believe they forgot so she'll go and take it this detail in ruse this doesn't seem very relevant to the story it captures however the essence of the story and to understand why we must learn a story another story in the Talmud actually in Bryce at ice after Bryce are those texts that didn't make it into the Mishnah they're called Bryce which is a combination of towards bar y ASA brought from the outside and in tractate pay Emma sector pea the third chapter there's a fascinating and difficult to understand an intriguing mysterious story interceptor pen I'm gonna ask you to look at source at the next source at the next source this is going to be source number four place after pee get paid get more listen to the story my sir Bahasa effort a story with a pious man shikaka we may betray her sedale he forgot a sheaf of grain in his fields for our Marylebone aah he told his son save a hacker evil eye pyro a little polish lemon I want you to go and sacrifice for me a bull as a carbon oiler and a bull as an offering known as slum him in the holy temple oh my lawyers son says Abba Father my release ELISA my earthly mitzvahs a semicolon insertion material why has this Mitzvah cause you joy more than any other Mitzvah in Judaism father you do many mitzvahs sick is what mitzvah you forgot achieve you left it for the poor father there's a go and bring two sacrifices to the temple going to celebrate the moment why why this Mitzvah Omar lawyers son tells his father tells him listen to these words calm it says schibetta no son lehem are mocking with data no all mitzvahs of Torah God gives us in a way that we can do it with our das we can do it consciously we can do it volitionally we can decide to do it Sushil eladante no this is the only Mitzvah that was not given to us in a way that we can do it with our knowledge she Lewis and the uber Autzen with now become my boss our Mitzvah Zulia de know if we would have wanted to do this Mitzvah willingly we would have never had the opportunity to do this let's know the only reason we have the opportunity to this Mitzvah suppose we didn't want to do the Mitzvah you see what he's saying every other Mitzvah you do consciously I'm now going to put on Phil and I'm now going to give charity I'm now going to go study tour I'm now going to put on a mezuzah on my door I'm now going to pray I'm now going to light a candle I'm now going to the I'm now going to teach my trial Torah every Mitzvah you decide to do and you do it consciously there's one exception shikre forgetting if you want to do the Mitzvah you can't do it if I tell myself I'm going to forget this sheaf in the field so that the poor man can get it you didn't do the Mitzvah if you didn't forget it you don't have to leave it for it I mean you can give it to him and do the Mitzvah of charity but that's not the Mitzvah of Shikha the Mitzvah of Knesset dates forgetfulness you can only do it unconsciously if you do it consciously you didn't do it not the Mitzvah you can't force yourself to forget something you're gonna say okay now I'm going to forget it if you're planning to forget it you're not gonna forget it we forget what we don't want to forget but if you decide to forget it it's not forgetfulness if it's not forgetfulness you don't have to give it away to the poor man or he can't take it it's only if you forget that you get the Mitzvah so this is the only Mitzvah God gave us to do shall Loyola that pain and we can't plan for it and that's why this Mitzvah caused me so much joy what's the explanation in this you can't plan for this Mitzvah so God basically made you do this Mitzvah what's the great joy here so our great teacher our great master they altered every emotion a Zalman of liad the in a discourse in Lakota Torah partials was I brought the MS Mercia Shiloh Kassab Iceland of it quotes the story from the bryson pea and he explains to us the meaning of the story the meaning is that the greatest things can happen in life only when you're not conscious of them happening the fact that this Mitzvah you can't do consciously you can only do it unconsciously means that your ego is not involved in this Mitzvah your identity with all of its confinements and limitations are not involved in this Mitzvah why because you're not present in this Mitzvah if you would be present in this Mitzvah you would never have this Mitzvah this Mitzvah necessitates a moment when you forget you're not there you forgot you're not present you suspended yourself you don't remember that chief now there's a mitzvah on that chief and the greatest things in life happen only when you're not present because whenever you're present you limit you confine the reality of what you're engaged and even if you're idealistic and you're enthusiastic and you're a great guy you're a great woman you're a passionate person but you are a person you're mortal you're finite you have an ego and therefore whatever you or I do something consciously and I want to do it my identity wraps around the deed and limits it I can do as much as the energy that comes from me and often my ego is involved when I do something consciously I often have satisfaction and that limit said because my ego was involved and I limited based on Who I am based on my identity based on my sack by psyche but when I don't know what I'm doing so often the results completely shock me they completely transcend me they have a ripple effect beyond my cabin isn't awareness the greatest things that happen in life you could never prepare for because whenever you prepare for something so then automatically you confine it already you create a course for it you limit it you put it within a particular context when you don't prepare for it when you're not there then things happen often that are beyond you beyond your imagination beyond your heart beyond your soul and every person as great as you are as a limited person custody Eustis quote the verse about preparing speeches you know often people who prepare speeches and they read their speeches of papers word-for-word there's something missing right because it's it's limited by the words of my the paper and sometimes even when you prepare your script accurately again the message is limited sometimes something comes into you a middle of the speech you didn't prepare it that's what you have to say there's a project with our activist a character a TV name is knocking out over NASA SATA a visor is being sorry I blame is observing the great writer I saw this in one of his works he explains this in the name of custard misses vendor ash though if you give a draw-off speech with Hakata eight days and was researched well VNA ms it's true not going out of where the words were prepared net society a vassal is being so this is an abomination for the Jewish people spontaneity is often what's necessary in life any one of you who speaks if you're a musician if you're an artist if you're a writer you know you can prepare a speech you can prepare the music you can prepare the yes say the book that's all not the real thing that's all limited based on your plan and then sometimes you sit down you start talking you start writing you start playing and something that's beyond you takes over and you become a conduit an instrument for something that transcends you everything you prepare is great you have to appear and now don't mistake this I'm a very big fan of preparing because people who don't prepare if you're really if you're in touch with deep energy then you don't have to but but most people have to prepare you have to be structured what speaker gets up and doesn't prepare it's horrible you have to know what you're saying as somebody once told me get up and tell them what you're gonna tell them tell it to them tell them what you told them and sit down and don't say anything else I prepared this I'm not this not spontaneous not everything but a lot of it the core of it the structure of it whatever you prepare is always limited based on your plans based on what you precipitate what you put out there what you when you don't prepare what you don't then the possibilities are infinite take the blessings doctor ever explains gevalt equai the blessings of Yitzhak had to come in such a fashion you took one to the bless Asaph rifka tells you active go take the blessings dress up like a self you took things Yaakov his ace if he gives them the blessings if Rifkin here again the woman is very active and the man is passive sometimes feminists accused Jewish women and biblical woman of being passive but if you look at the history of the Jewish women and everything I discussed in all the big big major issues the men are very very passive and clueless and the women are quite active rifki if she knows the blessings belong to Jakov go to its cook like every jewish wife does and say my dear it's hug you got it wrong the blessings go to Jakov stop this know she dresses up yak of like a sub and Yaakov appears like a seven he says I'm 90 ace of pretzel and you just gives the blessings to Yaakov and he thinks it's a so why why suck doll today Ben look at the Turner partials was a Sbrocco because if he eats Huck would have given the blessings to Jakov consciously the blessings would have been far more limited they would have been limited by the cognizant parameters of Isaac's mind and Isaac stolen Isaac's art he would have defined the blessings he could not know what he's doing that the blessing should really be for profound when he was giving act of the blessings he didn't know he was giving him the blessings he thought he was giving it a son and that allowed the blessings to come from a place that's much much deeper it comes from your unconscious identity that's infinite that's not limited that's not defined your conscious brain does not process it and because it doesn't process it that's very very deep you know they say somebody once said there's two people who don't succeed in life people who don't have a plan and people who stick to their plan you can't be successful if you don't have a plan but you also can't be successful if you stick to your plan you have to be able to tear up your plan you have to be able to thrown in the garbage people become addicted to their plans and that hinders their success we all know in our own life I know what in my life you know and in your life you try to do good things you accomplish good things the greatest things you accomplished you never know you're accomplishing and that's why they're so great because they happen in a space that's above your consciousness and that's what makes them so great so enduring so deep so impactful now go back to the story now you understand the story a father forgets a sheep in the field he tells her son go bring sacrifices his son says I / what's the sin you forgot something the first time you forgot something what's that dad forget you put out filling today you didn't make sacrifices you gave charity didn't make sacrifices you didn't bring a carpet you did hundreds of mitzvahs no sacrifice you forgot the bundle of grain is throwing a feast why his father explains to him it's the only Mitzvah in which I'm not present my ego is not there my conscious is not there she is so violent that they know if I would want to do what I wouldn't be able to do it if I wouldn't want to prepare for it I wouldn't be able to do it if you prepare for Shaklee you can do the Mitzvahed something you cannot prepare for and that means that this Mitzvah is connected with a very very deep level in a person the unconscious of the person is what's involved in this Mitzvah not too conscious it's the part of you that doesn't realize it's the part of you that's not consciously aware and that's rooted in a divine energy that completely transcends your parameters and as a result of that the joy was so profound mushiya can only come from relationships in which the men in which the men's egos were not present mushiya can only come from relationships in which the people involved did not know what they're doing completely because mushiya's seed machines reality is an energy that's that's infinite that redefines the entire world is the ultimate destiny of the world it's the ultimate truth of God being present in our world it's the redemption so it's something that's not just great it's awesome beyond awesome and something for that seed had come into the world through intimacy it must come from a place that's Lamai Allah may have - a place that's beyond the knowledge of the people that aren't involved so if I'm involved in something and I precipitate and I realized this is what I'm bringing in they could never bring in the seed of mushiya which is completely from a place of transcendental in the words of the coda Turner from Mackie for a hike which means a place that transcends your psyche on every single level and if your psyche is there and cognizant it would limit the energy that's being brought into the world and therefore the men could not know completely what they're doing because then their arrogance or self-consciousness would be involved even if they were idealistic and it would be limited based on their identity and this is the explanation of a gavel the key thing I mean it's an amazing thing if you look in your next source if you look in source number five the mega-rich tells us our marae beats cookery beats cook says it says into hill and matzo seed of it out the I found of with my slave hey hon MOT sausage where did I find them wannabe I found them God found them he was lost hate hermit sauces best dime I found him and is going what do you mean he found of it ins dying because this diamond light was saved with his daughters and of it came from ruse and ruse came from light sold his daughter say he found him ins dying wasn't I found them I found him in this door him comes the gomorian son head during the next source and says three things come back ah das three things come when you're not aware but SIA what you find you find the treasure you find that you couldn't prepare it has two kind of Messiah was we must shift by best others every day we ask for machine dozens of times a semi stove they will be badass I mean my men wife appreciates my may I calculate bakkali I'm sure what's that circa pass this is what I mean it's a medium but Saucedo been out there as much as you prepare you can't prepare whatever you prepare for you can't really be buried something that completely transcends it shocks civilization it shocks history checks the human experience that's what the morale said in the beginning of today's class and that's a history all tonight class much saucy as much as you prepare for it you can't reach the ultimate it's something that comes from a place that's beyond you whatever you precipitate doesn't really define it it's an energy that comes from your deepest deepest core that your conscious brain does not filter and shrink and limit and as a result of that it turns into a reality and God that's completely beyond our comprehension what we call maka for Erick and the three levels of Ponemah and mackovic or even aquifer are there are things that are internalized within us there are things that are beyond us but we have some glimmer of it and then there are things that completely transcend us we are clueless and with mushiya his much saucy it's Amit SIA and weird biz dime it happens of a new and light as asleep light can't be awake and you hooda can't know and yeesh I can't know and boyss can't be in complete knowledge of what's happening light is completely drunk you hood it doesn't know who it is boas is still shocked he said doesn't know who it is what about the women the women could know and very briefly a woman is defined in cabbalistic and pacific terminology as the ultimate Makabe which in our context means a woman has the ability to be a true recipient of an experience without imposing her identity and ego on the experience a woman has the ability to absorb an experience without inter without imposing her own ego and identity on it it's a feminine gift more than a masculine gift it's a gift that was given to a woman her ability to be on the Cobble a woman biologically is on the Cobble she absorbs a child she makes space for something every single month of her life sometimes there's a child and sometimes it ends up with a broken uterus of torn uterus and blood the word rack'em womb comes from a wrath and compassion a woman was created to be amicable every month to create space for something completely beyond there are no child a new life psychologically emotionally a woman has that ability to be able to absorb an event that transcends her without mixing in her ego her agenda it's it's a unique ability so the women were the agents in history to bring in the seed of Messiah although they weren't completely conscious but they could be more conscious they were entrusted with the ability to bring the seed of Messiah lights daughter ruse Naomi Raquel and Leia rifki with the blessings yeesh eyes made English eyes wife the women were entrusted to bring in this see that completely transcends the experience of the human dynamics of the finiteness of the universe bhisma she represents maki for roughly the essence of God the essence of infinity the essence of the soul which is beyond our limited experience they were entrusted with the seed that comes from a place that's beyond our finite identity it was given to the women and therefore they were not clueless they actually were the agents to initiate the seed and that's why ruse gets her grain from Shikha from forgetfulness bias says make-believe you forget he's a man he's imposing consciousness unforgettable 'no screaming from the grain that was really forgotten and all this all this we finally see the madras and here's the last source look in the last source the madras says in relation Sarah parish on an Aleph rep atomic emission Redbush more Robert allahumma send the name of ribs rollin as I am Avenue Zahra lights daughter tells the other daughter let's live with our paranoid after we get him drunk and we'll get from our father seed Anaheim Avenue Ben EXIF con Alana hi I'm Evie new Sarah it should have said we'll get from our father a son a child so it will get from our father seed the point the seed the point is a child they wanted a child child comes from seed or he says heh - Oh Barney Makemake what Lloyd's daughter was telling the other sisters I'm not just interested in a son who Nick I am Avenues era we're gonna get from our father a seed that comes from elsewhere the Aces Mela how Marcia which scene as it is the seed of machine which was born then she didn't say I live with my father and we'll have a son we're gonna bring to life Zahra a seed which seed a seed from somewhere else the seed of mushiya the seed that's one day gonna be born as the child machine yes that seed is gonna come from where from us because roosts came from Maya who came from light from the relationship of light in the daughter so when they were preparing for the event they're looking for the seed of mushiya much sauce seed of adavi a from this diamond and that seed requires light to be in a state of shaker forgetfulness intoxication inebriation the greatest things in life your greatest accomplishments you can never prepare for you prepare and you do what you have to do and then things happen far beyond your imagination that explains the mystery in which the Selenia develops the secrecy now we have to explain the promiscuous nature what seems a so immoral and unethical that will do next class stay tuned [Music] [Applause]
