good morning rabble tay
i'm very happy to be the one to try to
give over
some of the ideas on the magnificent
story of parashat noah
what's special to me about this parasha
is that it's a parasha and a story that
we all grew up with
everybody from the youngest child in
claliusville to the oldest
everyone still loves the story about
noah and the mabul
but there's a tremendous meaning to this
today in america
and i think that this is the proper
intro to beginning the part to begin the
panasa
we're living in a time
that wasn't that different
than the story of the door the
generation of noah
where it seems like the entire society
and the whole world
just went
to complete corruption
so what does hashem tell a drew to do at
that time
go into the tava
go into the yeshiva go into the bet
midrash
find yourself a place that you'll be
able
to literally
connect to hashem
by keeping out the corruption
and the difficulties of the world around
us
and with that you bring in your children
and you bring in your wife
and you bring in everything that shy to
your family and keep them indoors and
when we say indoors we're talking
spiritually and physically
like the great rabbi rabbiakov
kaminetsky used to say
when you
strengthen
the locks on your doors
and you put on good solid doors to the
outside world
and you keep your home the tava
clean and pure of a jewish home then
that's when you're going to have
the incredible blessing of a wonderful
family and beautiful children
so our homes today especially a jew in
america is the teva of noah
and we're floating along
in this storm of corruption that's
around us to be able to finally make it
to the times of mashiach
so we're starting here the first aliyah
para
noah
is called at sadiq
matter of fact he's the first one that's
called it sadiq
at
is someone who later on
is going to have the opportunity
to be able to feed
the entire world
noah was called sadiq
was called sadiq because in his we got
the man he fell fed a whole nation
god is called sadiq sadiq hashem behold
because he feeds the whole world one day
noah at the end of this parasha
is going to be the one to start over
again
replant
re-harvest and be the one to feed the
world
but for now
the opening of the parasha
noah is
he was at sadiq in his generation
he was blessed with three sons
the torah tells us
that at that time the earth became very
corrupt
and hashem saw that corruption and he
decided
to go and destroy the entire world
by way of bringing a great flood
hashem tells noah
go out and make a tava make an ark
and it should be made from i'll say go
fair
it should be smeared
inside and out
and then he gave him exact measurements
of exactly
the size the height that this tava
should be
it's amazing how later on when the storm
comes
the tava was made in such a way
that it was able to survive
not just the storm of above
but the underground waters
as well
so these measurements were brilliant
this tava had on it at sohar
which rashi tells us
might be two different understandings
whether it been
a window or a special gemstone we'll go
with the simple shot that it was a
window
and then on the side of the tava there
was a door he was instructed to put a
door on the side
and then hashem makes a treaty a breed
with noah and his family as we turn the
page
and that treaty that breed that he makes
with noah and his family was also
with two of each
of the animals that later on was going
to
survive through the tava and be the ones
to propagate a new world male and female
so hashem makes this treaty with noah
and his children
and the animals and all living things
that were going to survive
in the teva
and that treaty was
that they are going to be saved from the
oncoming catastrophe
they're going to be the ones that are
going to be the seeds that are going to
be the plant of the new world
right after the mabu
and the aliyah ends
that noah did everything that hashem
commanded
