Schlommo Khalibbach has some of the best
stories in the world and
he
had real life stories. He says
that his grandfather from four
generations before him. Four generations
before him
was in a German army.
This is many years before the Holocaust
and was a Jewish who made but again not
a
not a uh someone that knew everything
about Torah but kept basics kept Shabbat
put on to fillain and so on and he was a
young guy and he had to go to the German
army
and of course the go always know who's a
Jew
doesn't matter you could be you could be
1% Jewish they know
you could be completely
obnoxious about Judaism. Meaning you
could be anti-Semitic yourself as a Jew
and they still know that you're a Jew.
They still consider you a Jew.
So one day the Germans and his
and his a uh
platoon
decided to make a big deal about the
fact that he was Jewish.
I said, "Uh, listen.
You sure you're with us?
Why don't you eat this? What's that?
Hey, Dave. It's good. It's good. Good
for you. Oh, what you guys eat? Yeah.
[music] No, I can't eat it. Why not?
It's pig. I can't eat pig. I don't eat
pig. So, you're not with us then.
Listen, I'm fighting with you. I got a
gun just like you. I got a knife just
like you. I'm fighting the enemy. We're
on the border of Poland.
People are dying every day. What do you
want for my life? Let me just I'm not
going to eat the food.
No, [music] you're going to eat the
food. I'm going to make you eat the
food.
He says to them,
"I'm not going to eat the food." And
they start beating him senseless.
They give him such a beating that at
some point they throw him off the hill.
He rolls down the mountain. He rolls
down the hill and they pretty much leave
him for dead. They assume he definitely
died from this fall. Needless to say,
from the beating they gave him. He falls
right past the border.
He's now officially in Poland.
They leave
miraculously. He gets up,
looks around,
realizes where he is, says, "I'm never
going back to where I was."
And walks into Poland.
Walks into Poland
with 15 coins on him.
nothing else.
Walks around, sees in the market, what
could I do? How could I make I need to
make a living? I need to start a life.
Can't go back. I'll listen. I'm can tell
if I tell anybody I'm German, I'm going
to die. So he says, "Okay, you know
what? Can I buy this sack from you? How
much is a sack?" Says 15 coins.
Okay, I'll take it. He buys a sack. As
he's walking down the street, somebody
said, "Hey, I need that sack. How much
you want to sell that sack? I'll give
you 30 30 coins for it." Okay, I'll take
it. Doubles his money within 5 seconds.
So, he goes to the store again, buy to
buy something. What do you have for 30?
I have uh this. Okay, I'll take it. He
buys it. As he's walking down the road,
you you what do you have? How I'll pay
you 60 for it.
Sure. Okay. Within two months he became
a multi-millionaire.
Everything he buys he doubles the money
within moments. Unbelievable.
Shortly later after he settled down
millionaire blessing from shine for his
mess for this mitzvah of not eating pig.
[music] Now
says my grandfather didn't know he
didn't know a lot about dua. Why? He
didn't know that he didn't have to die
for not eating pig. He could have
actually eaten the pig. Actually if
those people were threatening to kill
him he was allowed to eat the pig. But
he didn't know. He knew that he has to
keep Shabbat. He knew he know what to
eat pic. He knew a little bit and he was
willing to die for it.
He was willing to die for it. That's the
most important part. And blessed him.
[snorts]
And within a few months, he became a
multi-millionaire in a brand new country
with no enemies.
Sometime later,
he sends a letter to the Sufel. The Suf
is
the son of the
he tells the Sufair,
please tell me how many you have. They
go for Ben's money. I'm going to give
each one of them a house for Ben's
money. Five star. I don't have Torah,
but I want to make sure that I have I
invest my money in Torah. So tell me how
much, who, what, when, and how. I'm
going to invest as much as I can to make
sure each one of them is living a lavish
lifestyle. Have everything they need cuz
at least I can use this money for Torah
cuz I don't have Torah.
That's
our grandparents who considered sinners
but with oh
like
meaning they didn't know a lot but
whatever they knew they kept it and
they're willing to die for it. Today
there's not really that much of that. So
you cannot say the same thing about
today's generation of people driving to
the synagogue on Shabbat.
The guy knows you're not allowed to
drive on Shabbat, but he still drives on
Shabbat. The guy knows you're not
allowed to do this illegal business, but
he still does it. And so on and so you
can't say the same thing about today's
generation. This is not to bring a
prosecution against the current
generation, but it's also to understand
that you cannot leave people
the way they are and let them assume or
actually tell them, misinform them that
everything is going to go be okay
without them changing. You got to do
them the favor and tell them, listen,
whatever you're doing may be working for
certain people if they're not Jewish.
for you. It's not going to work out in
the end. Why? Because there's a lot of
mitzvah in the Torah and you don't know
them and you need to know them. Here's a
USB. Here's a CD. Learn some Torah.
There's other you'll wake up and you
tell these to people and you'll be
surprised how they react in a positive
way
because no one cares enough about them
to tell them the truth. Many times,
especially if they're successful when it
comes to money, when you tell people the
truth, they'll end up doing chuba. Let's
say thank you for
