Shnayim Yomi - Ki Tavo - Shlishi - #3 - Reb Eliav Friedman - The Path of Hashem

Slishi posuk zos in a row which is super short. It's only four posukim long. But listen to the second posuk in here. We've chosen to set them aside to to make him your God to go in his ways. And to go with his mitzvos and mishpatim. What comes and then to listen to his voice. What comes first? The from here the learns if you go according to the calendar it's love minachem av. If you go into the way it's broken down in the calendar the teaches us that comes before following the mitzvos. What does it mean? Go in the ways of to speak the way that acts. That's the way you should act. And after that comes doing the doing the and the mitzvos and the mishpatim. It all comes afterwards. It's that's the first thing. Let us go the of course takes it home. Let's give an example. For example being careful how you speak. How does he know this? From the story with brought it length in the Sanhedrin. Maybe daf I'm not sure. Please check me up on that. The there tells the whole story. You and coming to conquer and coming to Israel and they come to and they they they totally annihilate them. They win but you don't say no one's taking anything. The is no one's allowed to touch any of the any of the spoils of the war. A guy named unfortunately did. Now they go then to their next battle and he didn't die. You should have known this. Why is this happening? What's going on? Someone against the he took things he wasn't supposed to take. So says who? says you think I'm going to tell you I'm going to be doing a no is another way of telling us things. That's true. is going to be the one who's going to tell you in some way. But to say it straight I'm going to tell you I'm not going to say I'm not going to you do it through a it's an indirect way. Just that's the first thing. Before we get into the we're all from we all want to do exactly the right way. First thing the way Hashem things very careful. Never to Lashon Hara. Never say something negative about another person. If we could adopt that that attitude, I'm not speaking negatively about another another Jew, that's the first step in serving Hashem in the best way possible.
