indigent if eclis a high priest cannot
become rich will be defiled do no corpse
but it is a great mitzvah for the Kohen
Gadol the high priest to bury an
unattended corpse there's no one to bury
it and in such an instance it is a
mitzvah for him to it's a great Mitzvah
in general to be involved with Jewish
burial and all of us have a specific
special that's what to be involved in a
burial of someone who has no one for

or her burial but this Mitzvah is

need and you must do whatever you can do
to assist in doing this helping your
fellow physically or spiritually or both
will add joy to your own personal life
and increasing enjoying our own life is

preparing and starting to celebrate
because Mashiach is literally about to
be fully revealed may it stop being
literally about and just happen now
increase in terror study and performance
of mitzvahs and maybe Zeta to see this
immediately
