[Music] welcome back everybody so at this point the pasuk tells us that the waters rose up so high that they actually covered the mountain tops all at once everything that once lived on earth now perishes everything except the fish in the water and i just wanted to mention i think this is a big idea because i'll tell us that fish are the sign of that which ain't hara doesn't have an effect on like the month of adar the month of adara it's the you know the sign of the fish where they say people that are born in that month aren't as affected by iron hara the fish are out of the eyesight of people they're under the ocean from here we pick up a big moussar to stay out of the eyes of people to be like the fish that were always kind of submerged under the water away from the eyes of people it saves from so many tsarut take a look the whole world was destroyed entire mabul everything is perished but the fish lived on because they were on the out of the eyes of everybody okay in the meantime so the waters of the flood remained on earth for a hundred and fifty days says the pasuk and then the torah goes on to tell us that hashem in his great mercy he remembers noah he remembers all the people in the tava the animals in the tava everyone that's with them in the table and at the end of these 150 days the waters start to go down and the teva the ark finally rests on the top of mount ararat a mountain in turkey this took place on the seventh month the seventh day where now the tevas sitting on finds its first resting place after the 150 day flood if you want to google you could actually find mount ararat turkey and you'll see that they have satellite images of remnants of the tava once upon a time which is incredible find i think that's another eye-opener to tell us how true our torah is and how the world wants to deny what they see right in front of their eyes okay so the tsukim go on in this beautiful aliyah and the waters continue to go down after that says the pasuk until the 10th month where at that point all the mountaintops are now appearing out of the waters and then 40 days after that noah opens the window on the top of the tava for the very first time and he wants to see is there any dry land so he sends out the orev he sends out the raven the raven goes out and circles around continuously with no place to land so he comes back to the tava indicating that there's no dry land at this point and he makes the second attempt this time he sends out the yonah the dove the dove also on its first attempt flies around and comes back showing indicating that there is no dry land but then seven days later on the next attempt when the devil was sent out again he returns with an olive branch in his mouth and that was the indication that the trees and the dry land is beginning to show out of the mabul for the first time he sent there again another time and this time the dove did not return at all showing that there was actual land for the dove to sit on on the second month the 27th day of the month the earth was completely dry [Music] you
