[Music] so i think we've mentioned in the past that we have a concept of 613 commandments what specifically are the 6 13 commandments is not clear that is the debate the rabbis of different generations argue to make the list of 613 commandments famously the rambam has 613 and the ramban in the back of what we have to say from itself the rambam disagrees and points out some he should not have counted and somebody should have counted and there are multiple what we call the counters of the 6 13 misfits so sometimes you could say something's a mitzvah and you say who says that and you find that it is fascinating in region of pasture sacred which seems like a long it's two pages in the article here there's a passage that one of the rishonim says it's a mitzvah now we have a general rule if no one performs a mitzvah it's called a mace mitzvah and if you do it you get full credit for everybody else not doing it so i'm going to give you a secret now of what's called the mace mitzvah because i'm going to tell you a mitzvah no one counts in the 613 almost nobody counts and it's a practical advice for every day of your life and if you do it you should get full credit this is what the posix says passage base visa jarto here it says you shall remember the entire road on which hashem your god led you and then it says a few more words the kharadim the kharadim is an early commentator who list mistress and again doesn't always group the wrong bomb the rama does not count this the ramban does not count this the smog does not count this might go with all the names but the charade says on every person there is a mitzvah to remember the entire road that hashem took you that means every i don't know how often day hour life week you should start thinking about what direction god sent you which is easy how you found your shirt how you got that job what school you went to basic things in your life you realize in hindsight wow i didn't make that decision hashem made that decision for me and recognized that and that's an obligation that most people don't do so if you land out doing it what happens is you get extra credit for everybody who's not fulfilling this mitzvah and i want to add to it that hashem sends obvious messages to those who recognize it so if you sit back on your life and you say wow you know i realized i got that job i was so lucky i didn't take job a i took job b and now i met this person for job c wow shem led the way the next time hashem leads away he'll be more obvious about it and therefore your entire life you will recognize hashem leading your life which can only benefit everybody thank you [Music] you
