Shnayim Yomi - Shelach - Rishon - #1- Rabbi Eliezer Zeytouneh

[Music] comes to Mosheru and says, "If you want, go ahead and send spies and let them scour the land and bring back a report to Benel. one person from every tribe should go the 12 uh the 12 spies that went and were commissioned with a mission to go into isel and to spy the land and the names them in detail comes and says listen I want you to go from the south explains why the south what was the reason to go from the south rashi writes that generally when showing merchandise you show the infer your quality first and only at that point you show the better stuff and that way it's more valuable in the eyes of the customer. So therefore decided they should go from the south where it's really inferior quality land and as they continued north they would see how virtuous the land is charged them to go check out the city. Are they fortified the people? Are they strong? The wealth of the land is it fatty? Is it prosperous? And they come back with she come back with the actual fruits of the land. And it says there this is time that the grapes started ripening. It was a time in fact to collect those grapes. It's interesting. And the writes that the names listed in the par were not the actual names of the spies. It is a name that gave to the spies based on the actions of these men. And the question is why? Why weren't they listed by their actual names? And the answer is very simple. And the writes used to say a person's name causes him to have certain qualities and strengths and talents. You are born with inborn talent. However, the name that your father gives you is one thing and the name that you give yourself is another thing. We have to take all those qualities that we were given and we have to create a masterpiece. That is the name that the Torah is going to recognize. The name that we made for ourselves. Not the gift that we were given. What we do with that gift. Have a wonderful day. [Music]
