The goal of the Schneayomi project which is such a beautiful incredible idea and I wish all the organizers and people participating in this project that they should get tremendous braha. The goal is to encourage people to learn read every day of the week or at least through the week the whole para and fulfill the obligation of twice and one translation. Now that is a in fact it's pay 285 and the says that a person is obligated not only to hear the Torah in the but also every week to finish the whole para and the says from Sunday and onward learning the para of the Shabbat is considered to be with the so two questions why is this mitzvah this that we should read the parish with the Tibbor, what exactly is the basis? What's the benefit? We should always do things with the Tibbor. But why specifically learning the Torah? That's question number one. And question number two, even if there's such a concept, so we could read it at any time, why does it have to be dka that week when the tabore is also reading the parasa of the week? So I'd like to answer with a puk in this week's para. Before we get there, there's another important topic regarding Purin is coming is coming and I want to share an incredible idea from my father. In the par it says that Malik attacked you on the road. He attacked those that were behind you. The you the Jewish people the were tired and worn out the Malik did not fear Hashem. So first the Torah says what Amalik did. He attacked you by surprise. He attacked those that are weak among you. You claws were tired and heal did not fear Hashem. So my father asked why not finish discussing what Amalik did and then at the end say that you Jewish people were not you were tired and weary. Why does it put what the Jewish people were tired and weary in the middle of what Amalik did that then Amalik did not fear Hashem? So my father said a very foundational message. The Jewish people were just freed from Mitim. They had tremendous miracles in Mitim on the Yamsuf and they were walking around tired and worn out. If the Jewish people are tired and weary, that will cause the gaim also to not have fear of Hashem. Because if the Jewish people who are the nation chosen by Hashem that have all these miracles happen even if we look at the last two years we have all these incredible things happening to us as a miracle from Hashem to be saved. Iran is teetering and we're not walking around with energy full of life and enthusiasm. So then the gaim also do not fear Hashem. So therefore because were therefore did not fear Hashem. Now very interestingly the of is they call it sim raf of being weak because many people don't do this mitzvah this and say that when a malik attacked the Jewish people it's because they were weak their hands were weak from grasping on to the Torah that they could have already learned so therefore the is saying don't be weak strengthen yourself learn the Torah but learn it with the why specifically with because that as we mentioned in another Torah this week because we have to serve Hashem as a community especially when we're not all strong especially when we're not all doing everything that Hashem says we should do if we serve Hashem as a community then our answered even as individuals we get everything that Hashem says so a major reason to do every week when is reading the par because that's a way we can fulfill And then you get your and your will be blessed and everybody knows people who are sick. Hashem will remove all illnesses from us from us even individually. So therefore we serve Hashem by every week reading the Torah becoming enthusiastic and proud of the Torah that we have. And I personally am so proud to be part of a community of people that are trying to strengthen themselves in this haka. And may the organizers, the participants that are teaching and that are learning and that are also watching and inspiring themselves to do that, may everybody get these blessings. Hashem, Shabbat shalom.
