Shnayim Yomi - Vayeitzei - Sh'vi'i - #7 - Rabbi Shlomo Landau - Totally Irrational!

The briskav once found himself in the train station in Warsaw. Somebody told him that the was actually in Warsaw. Immediately he hired a horse and buggy to take him to the and he came to the and when he walked into the and a few other leaders were talking about how difficult life was for Jews in Poland. There was no rhyme and no reason. There was just anti-semitism and oppression. And the said a story. He said there was an elderly gentleman. He must have been in his 90s, a Jewish fellow. And you needed a passport for whatever the reason was. So he went to the passport place to get a passport. He never got a passport before. And they said, "Well, you need a birth certificate." He said, "I don't have a birth certificate." They said, "That's fine. You just need to get two people who could testify that they were there at your birth." He says, "What do you mean? I'm 92 years old. If somebody saw my birth, they're well over 110. There's nobody that age." They said, "Well, too bad. You can't get a passport." Says, "What took place over there? what transpired. Be logical. Be straightforward. Quoted a Yakov gives a whole logical explanation of how upright and straightforward and honest, full of integrity he's been in all of his interactions with Lavan. Lav should respond and say, "You were honest. You weren't honest." Lance is a blanket statement. Yakov knows something. The girls, they're mine. Your children, they're mine. Your sheep, it's mine. There's no conversation here. It's a non-starter. You don't rate. We do what we want and whatever you say is irrelevant. Says the has been unfortunately the situation of the Jewish people time in and time again. We feel that if we could have something called prosem it's a closed book. We could say whatever we want. Nobody listens to us. First it was about Gaza. First it was about the war. That's over. But people are still protesting. What do you mean it's over? It's not logic. It's anti-semitism. Says the what do we do? The Kamar says, "What should a person do to be saved from the difficult times prior to the days of Msiah which is now mitzvah? We increase our we increase our mitzvah that protects us even from the most irrational anti-semites.
