There's a gimmar that tells us in that there was a boy from Bav from Iraq and he married a young girl from Israel. Now their language is a little bit different. It's like the Queen's English and the American English. Certain words like soda, they say pop, all different types of words like that. Same thing over here with the Iraqi with the Bavi Aramit Aramaic and the Isel Aramaic. Now they got married. It was a beautiful wedding is over. Now the husband is going to go to work and the wife tells him, "Honey, what do you want for dinner?" He tells her, "I want a a pair some some lentils." says, "Thank that's a great idea." So, she's working really hard on the dinner and he's at work. He's coming back. He comes home after learning, after praying, comes home. He's sitting by the table. The table is all set up with candles. Romantic dinner. Out she comes like with the French chefs with a cover on top of the plate and she puts it in front of her husband, takes off the cover, and he sees in front of him two lentils looking at him. looks at his wife, looks at the plate. Girl, something's wrong with her. So he makes a and that's what he eats. Two lentils for dinner. Next day she's all excited. He loved his dinner. Says, "What do you want for dinner?" So he goes and he says, "I want a wheelbarrow full of lentils." This guy likes lentils. So she's over there preparing. He goes to work. She's preparing her lunch, the dinner. comes back home. They sit down. She sits they sit down by the table and she brings the main course out. She comes with a wheelbarrow full of lentils. The husband starts laughing and he tells her she said he says, "Can you please bring me tsina?" Bina in Aramit in the Aramaic of Bavl means watermelon and in the Aramit in the Aramaic of Israel it means candles. like we see in this week's parasa. So she goes and she tells and she says okay not a problem. She comes back and she brings two candlesticks. This guy says what's wrong with her? She doesn't understand. I want watermelon. How do you eat candlesticks? So he tells her go break it baba. Go break it by the door. Like we have by baba kama baba mitsia baba the first gate the second gate the third gate. So she doesn't understand what baba is because baba is a different word by them a different it's a whole different um what is it? So she's thinking and thinking she says oh I know one rabbi one person he's called Baba and who is that Baba Baba bba who was galot is he who was really a great roah everybody went to him forot so she comes to the beta to come to the medish she's waiting until he walks out he walks out of the beta midrash what does she do she takes the two candlesticks and she breaks it on top of the rabbi's The students were about to grab her, but Baba bin Buddha goes and tells her, "Young lady, why did you do that?" So she says, "Well, my husband told me to break it up baba, and you're the only Baba that I know." The rabbi smiles and gives her a bra that she's going to have two children that are going to be as great as him. question is because she did a foolish thing to break something on the rabbi's head to go and she didn't understand the concept of language between her and her husband. She deserves two great children that are going to be like Babab and Buha like the great rabbi but you could understand it from this week's parasa from Rashi. Rashi goes and tells us the first bas you should take oil to what to go and light um that you should have always that it should be lit. So Rashi tells us what does mean he lights it. A person when they light them when a kohhen comes to light the minor he's not supposed to just put his hand over there light it and just let it light by itself. He's supposed to put his hand and wait until the other fire until the other wick takes the form of the flame and is lighting by itself without need for any other assistance. When a person teaches his child, you're supposed to go and take care of them until they're able to light by themselves, until they're able to stand on their own. You're always supposed to be over there helping out, trying to help, trying to give the child a little bit more advice, a little bit more guidance. He realized Baba Benba realized that this girl she finishes her accomplishments when she takes on something no matter what's in the way she does it. If it's a wheelbarrow full of lentils of it's two lentils of it's going breaking candlesticks on the head of the great chief rabbi that's not going to stop her to go and do what she has to do. So us also the Gar says whoever watches over the candles he's going to have. We understand that through this story and through this rashi we should have it easy to be able to bring up our children. We should always finish our accomplishments that we want to do and we should have a beautiful Shabbat. Shabbat shalom.
