The Secrets behind the Daily Offering in the Temple by Rabbi Aaron Dovid Poston

[Music] we're now in chapter 28 verse 4 it's going to be on two sides of your sourcing but this paragraph is dealing with the daily offering our prayers actually replace we don't have it today but we will one day when the temple is rebuilt sooner a day we will again have two offerings we each gave a half a shekel every Jew would give a half a shekel it was put into a bank and out of the bank they bought the daily offerings these daily offerings atone for the Jewish people every different thing there's so many different things at atone we were talking earlier today about the eight garments of the kinda the high priests they Egypt on for something different and the different offerings atone for different types of sins but now offering atones for amazing intentional sins you must do repentance and of course this was totally accidental without the mind so then you have no need to bring a Tobin's work so this verse would you see chapter 28 starting with verse 1 all the way till verse 8 the Bergin examine it and it also appears elsewhere the Torah in parshat tips ah there I mentioned it later where it is I can't find it right now I did put it on the source sheet so we'll get to it but it's worth for work why is it mentioned twice why is it worth forward and what is it about the words they're gonna bother us so much so I just want to point out you if you look in verse 3 it says to add a as a continual offering meaning every day snidely oh Allah Tommy and then it says a chemist's you're gonna do in the morning one lamb you do in the morning and then s êtes-vous s shaney the second one now we will already have a problem you don't say one and then you say second you say first and then you say second or you say one and then you say to you don't mix I don't know what it's called but you don't mix the type of number system by saying first and second that makes sense or one and two that makes sense but you don't say one and then second follow me if we're going to see it similar to the way the first seven days of creation it says day one and then from then on it says second day third day fourth day fifth day six days every day so we're gonna have the same problem going back to the Genesis story but right now we know there's two a day and one will be in the morning the second will be in the afternoon and then it says look at verse 8 the second you shall make in the afternoon now I'm not bothered by the fact that it says second because it does say where it does say in verse seven regarding it says one land and we know it's talking about the first again one land and then it says the second lamp but we're not bothered by it when it says one lamp it doesn't say the morning in other words it mentions in the afternoon twice so in the morning is mentioned once and in the afternoon is mentioned twice so we have this is very important we have the app we have the question and the observation of the clea car that the it says one and then second it shouldn't have it should have said one and then two or first and then second so we have an issue with that and that it says in the morning once and it says in the afternoon twice okay so why so the cleef car begins to explain and get really into the nitty-gritty nuts and bolts so he mentions I'll just read him again because he's gonna say what I already gave you a introduction to that our verse said one land you make in the morning but guess what it says in a second land so why does it say second it should have said first going back if it's a second then you have to go back to the time it says one and it should say first not one so that's and he wants to know why that it only mentions the morning offering once whereas the one in the afternoon it's mentioned twice I mean guys if you don't hear the answer I don't think you're gonna go to sleep tonight so - he mentions we find in Exodus chapter 29 verses 39 to 41 exactly murder letter four-letter word for work so he wants to resolve it by giving us this great introduction if you go to Isaiah chapter 1 verse 21 that verse the only thing we're really concentrating on is righteousness lodged in her said that yelling though the actual verse is talking about Isaiah is talking about Jerusalem the way it used to be what does it mean the way used to be it used to have righteousness but now here we are far true how has she become a harlot we're talking about Jerusalem the faithful City full of justice meaning how did it happen this is which used to be full of justice in which righteousness would Lodge but now murderers the city is no longer righteous look in Hebrews said it yelling thought okay so what does it mean that in that in the old days a person would never go to sleep in Jerusalem with sin in their hands you hear the words righteousness Lodge the word Lodge it's not like the truth is the root for a hotel the malone is the same here you'll lean but in other words righteousness slept in her people would go to sleep righteous meaning ain't other lobuche alive volver Beato no man no person would ever go to sleep in Jerusalem with sin in his hand okay now we're going to try to understand what this means this is the Prophet not me that taught me chill Chakri's that offering that was done in the morning on behalf the Jewish people it was macabre Olivares kalila that atones for the sins of the entire night and the offering of the morning huh Bashar bhai I'm trying that was the morning then the tummy children are buying the one that was done later in the afternoon that's miss hopper up Cole of eros that's on the Avera circle a yoke of the sins that took place during the day okay follow when you wake up in the morning and you know that in the temple the morning offering is coming to atone for any sin that took place the night before comes not for just me for all the Jewish people and the next day that later on in the day before sunset and another offering was made and that atones for all the sins of the Jewish people through the day so if you look at mitla let's say pronounce it Myka Myka chapter 2 verse 1 it says over there woe to those who devise iniquity and plant evil upon their beds at the morning light they carry it out for the power is in their hand - rah Amish Kubota they think about doing evil while they're on their beds at the morning light Laura beaucoup Yasuo they have the possibility of doing it from here what do we know that the Lila the night is not the really time for doing the evil acts okay it's the time to think about it and our minds are quite alive at night thinking about devising plans to do the next day to rob the bank to hit a thief to steal the car I don't know whatever it is that you're thinking about doing ripping off your business partner so you can dream all you won at night but you can't do anything the buses aren't running the gas stations are closed the ain't no teams among the here or myself up well but the only thing you doing I just think about it so the the head the saint is on here or here or means thought that's why the morning is just one it's just one sin so you're able you okay your holy else here or below my set it is possible to have thought without action it is possible to call that action that's why it says you bring that morning offering one it's as one as a chemist ephod toss they are both capable care you bring the offering which is what in the morning he hoop the top it up - imran it's coming to atone for those who had the evil thoughts while on their bed the yahoo yoshi not a Marat so the truth is they could have had regret they could have retracted and done chuhwa and never actually did the any action the next day whatever was in their minds never came out into actuality well hey man Mar that's why it says Akkad it's only one now now we understand all exactly why it says one time a the animal is low his Corolla sobotka keep on Mahad it only mentions it one time now only does it say one but it only mentions at one time but with what about the sins of the day they're double without doubt they're double why because alopecia he shave a level I la SOTA even though you thought about doing it at the night to do it nevertheless what happened during the day is when you actually did the action the thought returned and you did it with thought because if you did it without thought you wouldn't be bringing an offering at all we call that a loose we call that like Oh accidental our kids are hitomi children are buying the copy our stay of arrows that's why the late afternoon offering is coming to atone for two types of sins the thoughts and the actions afternoon is scarce tape I mean the party that's why it's also mentioned twice in the chapter and from the fact that it said we go back to the Isaiah chapter 1 verse 21 where we understood that a man does not sleep in Jerusalem with sin in his hand the clea car says I don't understand why why doesn't the verse to say that a person doesn't wake up from this sleep he doesn't get out of his bed with sin in his hand so the idea of sin in your hand the language of in your hand the BI dough you know what viedo means it's it's infers we're speaking about an actual sin that one does with his hands and if that's the case we already mentioned that the nighttime there's no hand there's no sin in your hand because it's only thought if there's only thought there's no sin in your hand and this comes to help us understand and infer that the tummy that tummy means the daily offering is atoning for the sins of the day we're talking about the late afternoon one that's why I'm poppy sheesh manner here or masa because even though yeah both thought and action the closure came Tommy's your chakras come a little bit about though the one in the morning is only for thought it just drew Nels announced to point down that by the morning one it's only thought and by the late afternoon one it's for both thought and action now we understand also which I didn't point out to you but it says snidely Oh a lot Tommy so if you go to actually the first verse we were discussing where it mentions to a day of the continued continual burnt offering that's verse three towards the end of verse three in Hebrew - snidely owe a lot to me if it says to a day it should have said all those plural to me it doesn't say Oh Lowe's tell me it it says a lot to me as if these two things are really two parts of one offering if I'll so far it's two per day but it's considered one offering it I don't know I have to check the middle of the list of mitzvahs but I think that it's continual offering and it's to 2 times 1 in the morning when the afternoon it's not two separate Midlands you might have thought it's two offerings so you have one in the morning that's one of the 613 and one in the afternoon is one of the six no it's one offering that has two aspects to it two sides of the coin so what is he saying he said well it's very nice it says hola singular it should have said plural so so we're going to investigate why it's singular and it's going to blow you out of the water that you have to admit this question is very good that what it's really telling you is that each one of these different offerings wonders in the morning and one is in the evening when I say evening I mean late afternoon it's because it it tells for something on its own each one is atoning for something different that both of them are really one offering but he wants to know why is it why does the verse divide it into two different times and he tells you now the reason when he said before because the one of the morning attempts for the sins of the evening the night before and the one of the late afternoon atones for that day now this is going to be I think we need to get to the interesting part that it says in Genesis 1 that's Genesis 1 verse 5 and it was evening and it was morning young akkad one day and we already mentioned why you see y'all want to say what day I should say the first day the second day the third day note says young at heart one day day one and then the next day it's the second it should have been consistent like we sit here savory shall say first and then second so the reason why and this he says he explained already embrace schita Genesis is to remove from the hearts of the heretics of the people who are confused and why should worship idols people who are not clear about the oneness of God to remove from their minds you know what they would say well you have morning and evening you have dark you have light and you got ya and you must have two gods if you've got two powers like light and darkness it means there's true gods right I know that some certain Christian people think that you need to help God you actually need to help God fight the devil God doesn't need your help God is unbelievably powerful all-powerful and he created every everything that is every power that exists in the world he created and control so if this tells you that what that there is why does it say there's evening in this morning one day one day not first day but one day because that one day has two parts don't think that because there's two very opposing parts that there has to be two deities that there's to be two creators that there has to be two gods no it's one God that created everything he not just created everything he created things that are opposing opposing forces in history the words Miche so that the the heretics don't say to remove them from saying but I'm about to tell you they say that whoever created the morning did not create the evening because how can it be that comes from one thing two opposites therefore the Torah says yo Matt had one day that the evening in the morning they're all part of one 24-hour period and they're all part of one God who created both and now I understand by this it says a lot to meet it's one offering even though one's in the morning and one in the evening they both are offered up to the one God and now also the fact that the tummy offering gives you know that there are very specific places that the different offerings are slaughtered some are slaughtered in the east summer store the north somewhere right there's they at altar and there's designated places the one in the morning is slaughtered in the West the one in the afternoon is slaughtered in the east why is that because we already said the one in the morning is coming to atone for the night the the the sins of the night so that's why it's slaughtered in the West the one in the morning is slaughtered in the West because where is the sunset in the West that's called nighttime it's coming to teacher the morning offering is atoning for that which happens in the night and the late afternoon is slaughtered in the east to teach you what that it's coming to atone for the sins of the entire day that just passed where does the day begin in the east and then there's a whole nother level to understand do you know there are people that worship the Sun and the moon so this is coming to tell you that you slaughter in opposite areas to upset or destroy the thoughts of those who worship the Sun in the moon so in the morning where do we slash slaughter in the West and in the in the afternoon when it was for the knees because these people worship the Sun of the moon they slaughter in the direction they slow to their offerings in the directions of their gods and we are showing the opposite that rather it's all going to one God blessed be his name [Music]
