Something like that actually. Hashem will take all the curses that he said Hashem will put all the curses that he said on your enemies. And listen to the words of Hashem. I'm saying why is this all or nothing? Why can't it be that Hashem will take the curses away from you? And why does it have to go so nice? So that the Zohar Hakodosh says that midas hadin after was like when once the sword came out of the sheath it doesn't go back until all the blood is is is spilled. So that's why before this exiler a person can do teshuvah and nothing happens. But after there's already exiler it has to find it can't return empty handed. So they say the same one of the bells is Hashem will have to us. He says well really what we're saying is is that Hashem will have to us and the sins that were Hashem will have to us. If Hashem will have to us it's already after the exiler and now we're doing teshuvah so Hashem you can you can send it on them but it's not going to go back empty handed. They say also when he people come to him asking to daven for someone who was ill he would say Hashem will have to us. So we learned the to be sometimes he would say Hashem will have to us. Sometimes he would say Hashem will have to us. But the story is saying no that if it was after the exiler that this that he was daven for was supposed to die he would say Hashem will have to us. He would give midas hadin someone else instead. Let's say Russia something some whatever in place of the person that was supposed to die because midas hadin doesn't return empty handed. So it could be that's that's hinted to over here. Hashem will take the curses off you and it'll put them on your enemies. Why? If Hashem will have to us because you did teshuvah but it was after already the exiler. But the bottom line is that teshuvah always works. Then if you go to Yisrael it says that the Torah is saying who will go up to the heaven? Who will go up to the heaven? Because Hashem will have to us. So it reminds me I saw once a story that the Kotzker Rebbe he had a childhood friend. They both were Hashem will have to us Hashem will have to us. And they met up later in life. So they asked the Kotzker Rebbe how do you become a Rebbe? You're Hashem will have to us Hashem will have to us Hashem will have to us and such a Hashem will have to us. mean, nothing became of me. So, he told them he said that the truth of the matter is for both for everybody it's it's impossible, right? But, me I decided that I need to get up to heaven. So, I'm going to jump. And I jumped and you also jumped. And then after a few times you gave up, you realized this is this is insanity. And I kept jumping. And finally after years and years of jumping and falling back down they had mercy on me and they a hand came down and picked me up. So, that's what he alluded to over here also. It appears like that. Rashi says that >> [snorts] >> even though it's not in Shamayim, but if it was you would have to go up and get it. So, what does that mean? So, it means that the way it appears how how attainable it is. Sometimes you're asked to do something it looks like you're you're being asked to climb to the moon. The answer is you do what's on your what's on what's on what you're able to do and eventually you'll have to do it. That's why it says you got to work hard and you work you'll find. Why is it called to find if you work? You you earned it. The answer is it's always at the end of the day it's always a miracle. It's like you found something. It's like it was lost out there that you found. Why? Because you really didn't earn anything. He sees you putting in the effort he has at the end he has mercy on you. He was going up there to get the working working working and he was forgetting forgetting forgetting. It's impossible to learn the whole but that's why it's called you get as a why? Because you tried. Everything is like that. That this is the truth is very close to you in your mouth and in your mouth and in your heart to do. So, there's three things over here. But, it seems out of order because first it says in your mouth then and then last is all. So, why is that? So, he saw he writes in the to the he I think of bells. And this is also the sheet of by Victor Miller that even if you're not holding somewhere, but if you say it, for example, you want to attain ahavas Hashem. You want to love Hashem. To love Hashem, it's it's not a simple thing, right? But if you say every day, say Hashem, I love you. Hashem, I love you. If you say it you say it enough, and you try to have thought eventually it'll get there. If you don't even If you don't say it, you'll never get there. It doesn't You don't wake up one day with ahavas Hashem. So, could be that's why the Torah put the fifa first. The fifa the love for Hashem I say that even if it doesn't start belief, it starts only in the pet, but eventually it'll go from the pet to the life, and then you'll be ahavas Hashem. That takes us to review.
