Shnayim Yomi - Beshalach - Shishi - #6- Rabbi Yitzchok Fingerer

[Music] the Jewish people called The Heavenly food that descended from the heavens they called it m the in says that this m was very exotic and it was able to actually take on the flavor and taste of anything you were able to imagine or conceive of so it's a fascinating question that's asked if a person was thinking about a forbidden food a tra for food such as pork or shrimp or Lobster they like the taste perhaps they in their previous life they weren't religious they weren't from baluma we have a lot of those here B bgx and they tasted for Ben foods and now they want to think about the M as being you know this forbidden food are they allowed to says okay and his proof is from the speaks about Yalta who's wife and Yalta went ahead and said that everything Hashem forbade he also gave permission for a corresponding food or entity that's permitted for so she gave an example pork is forbidden but there's a special fish some states in the Caspian Sea that's called the shibuta fish and the brain of that fish tastes precisely like Pig like pork and then she gave another example right we're not let to eat meat and milk together but if you take the udder of a cow that's flesh and has milk in it that's milk and meat together which technically may be permitted so you see from here that even though the taste is a forbidden taste but since it's in a permitted context it's allowed and therefore the says that if you in the midbar in the desert eating the M you allow to think about something forbidden and will be okay and the the lesson though from here is that Hashem is not Draconian Hashem is not this ogre that's telling you no no no no that's not the point of ashm Hashem wants us to have pleasure but everything has to be within a structure everything has to be within a model of stability and decorum and we have to understand that if Hashem says no it's for our ultimate good because whatever he says no about there is a corresponding yes [Music]
