The Three Weeks - Nobody Makes it Out of Here Alive, or Do They - Rabbi Gedaliah Gurfein

he's supposed to be you don't get out nobody gets here live or almost no life and it was really going to be a look at the three weeks and the horrible make a mint - and so on so are fearing that at least more than one hand was going to go up when I asked that question what I will do is I will just take a few minutes to explain that people's common what it's all about and then afterwards if there are any questions motion with me I mean I'll be happy at the end of the class to explain it further and then I'll also tell you the class which we will go to which you can leave it you didn't want to come for that that's okay it's built on this people tongue so it's a good example of what I'm going to share with you so in brief the idea is like this that the Talmud is the OS it's the operating system of Jewish thought in front of the Talmud comes everything you can go from there into Qabalah you've learned the gloried Ginga and many other sources obviously Jewish law Jewish philosophy you name it anything that comes even those things which we identify is so distinctively Jewish women lighting Shabbat candles where do you know that from it's not Natori right this is all in the oral tradition and that which makes our unique relationship to the Bible is the oral tradition right for example says in the Torah in the Bible right an eye for an eye well what if the person who stands out somebody's eye only has one eye so if you stand out his eye now he will be permanently blind but he didn't blinding the other person you just took out one eye or what if the person whose one I lost his whole life was that he looks through a microscope and he looks at gems whereas the other obviously nobody wants to lose an eye but he doesn't necessarily need the eye for when he does for his work so therefore the oral tradition comes along and says certainly I friend I cannot be understood literally and therefore explain to us it means monetarily the value of that person's eye needs to be replaced as if you were actually replacing the eye and its value of what was lost okay that's one of millions of examples therefore the Talmud not only is the plan form of Jewish thought the Talmud has also been that which is experience every single civilization every single movement in history the Jews have been there with their talent and extrapolating continually adding and understanding and using the didactics and all the rest of what the Talmud is in fact the Talmud is the original Facebook it's the longest running non-stop dialogue in human history that incorporates virtually everything from how do you tie your shoe - how many other inhabited planets are there in the universe so the problem becomes like this to really be able to access Talmudic law or telematic wisdom either you have to know the real rigorous and I suggest that it's worth knowing but you need to know the rigorous understanding of how Talmud is actually read and understood clearly knowing the language will assist you I mean art scroll and knowledge Stein so these are tremendous and wonderful work but they're only going to kind of help you kind of skim the surface which may be good and at a certain point you will definitely fall off the cliff because as one of my friends once said I don't own an ox so I don't care the Gores another person's ox so certain point merely doing the translation even with the commentary some point could make the Talmud genius and boring god forbid so now the question is this Tom wood has survived everything from the Greeks or the Romans or what have you right through ash wits all the way to today but certainly our generation tends to be disconnected when you move outside of the five percent of on Israel that that really are engaged in the Talmud and even those which I call peripheral the document which god bless them they're wonderful but most people in documents just simply going straight through and it's a rabbi sitting up there spoon feeding them and if you ask them what they learn ten pages earlier chances are very little so once you move away from that you find that in other Jewish circles tell them it isn't even relevant is it doesn't mean it doesn't apply it doesn't speak and so on so that people's Tom wood is an effort a massive effort to revamp I don't want to say translate but to revamp the Talmud in a way that's very accessible to the Millennials and to this world today so with the people Thomas has done from the beginning of the Talmud abroad to the end of me dot it using certain criteria has extracted 8,000 primary concepts of what's in the tablet and has repackage them because it's a Talmudic primer in other words its job is like a sparkplug to get you started and from there hopefully you'll go on and on and on but as a primer as opposed to a translation it has no loyalty to the actual text its loyalty is to the actual thinking behind the text so therefore when you suddenly hit a ton of people Talmud quote which we'll see in our actual class Spinelli you might actually find that Bob Dylan rebbi akiva on the same paragraph and then that way is because all of a sudden you'll find out that when Andy Warhol said everybody's got their 15 minutes in Spain well guess what that's actually a table on page so-and-so so therefore it becomes an effort to try to take the westernized or the world but also includes a lot of Chinese thinking as well and Asian and in a Hindu thought and to show how the Talmud shares these ideas or maybe has a different take on these ideas now the problem became when you have this much information how do you navigate how do you access this information so what therefore became necessary were to build multiple gates to help you the end user find this information so one gate is using prehistoric dinosaur technology called con Google where you know you put in a word and you get a word appeal which is cool it helps question is what if you have a word but the words not there let's say for example you have a phrase called circumstantial evidence and you're a lawyer and you want to look up the legal approaches of law in the Talmud where you could type in it's essential circumstance nothing's going to pop up because there are no such words which would then be appearing in the translate but guess what there are these five times in the Talmud discusses in-depth accession essential circumstances so therefore what was done is we made three other gates in one of these gates is called lifestyle and it runs everything from animal kingdom down to zodiac it's four hundred and fifty different aspects of almost every facet of human life that works in what is called an Talmudic language cloud product as a group and a member of the group so that for example you could come down under doctors and medicine and a subcategory would be surgery and operations and you would suddenly discovered in the talmud is brain surgery you would Sully discovered the first Lippo suction surgery you would find how to build a surgical room how to prep a patient and so on things which would be very difficult in it's certainly an easy format to be able to find that information the third gate is just simple listings which would help you in terms of finding categories so let's say for example you go into holidays you want to find Hanukkah and she it would pull together all of these various you know degrees of concepts that relate to Hanukkah and so on and the fourth one are about 2000 plus one liners which we really refer to more as teasers and the teasers are kind of designed for two functions one is to get you to say WTF which if you don't know that expression stands for watch the fun right or it's dancefloor welcome to Facebook oh okay but they are designed to get you to go what and as soon as you do what and then you click on it it brings you into more information for example I can come up here and I can start working on our reverse this coupe for example I could go in I could click on something which says um how to perform the sex change well I think of motors also that yes in fact even rush of reason and safer bracing what's rocky bringing safe appreciate you know yes bingo you're like maybe six out of hundreds of people i usally throw this out - exactly Dina its re Leia is pregnant she does a quick mathematical equation that if the boy that she has were to come out etc and it becomes a girl track the Zohar brings us things too by Joseph was a girl and Russell and it becomes a boy so okay how the perform sex changes one thing may use prayers about the surgery but it's a sex change so therefore you suddenly put it that radicular it captures the interest of people and that's what these two thousand plus one lines do but they had another function for people who really do enjoy learning they become a tremendous way of cos aura of reviewing learning because by going through these quick little one-liners and testing yourself with them you get to see how much you really retain fact we did a focus group test we took people who one woman who was in the group identified herself as a third generation left-wing atheist merits voting Israeli to which I said ah not perfect and we pitted her with others against a group of she guys were nice into that nice you guys religious guys who had just finished bumble Mencia in the document and we prevent presented both of them with approximately thirty five of these little one-liner teasers that just run the gamut of Bubba Mencia and to the pillow knee whatever that means we gave them copies of the people's public version of Bubba Mencia guess who mopped the floor with whom it was unbelievable it was really unbelievable and in matter of fact if a person realizes what this tool is again it's not where the Tom wood ends it's where the Talmud can begin it becomes a vehicle where any of us myself included you could within a year three times virtually uploaded to your brain I'm going to say conservatively even though more than us often conservatively two-thirds of all the ideas Natoma I mean what you do is it that's another thing we're not talking about being religious or non-religious we're talking about if you're Jewish this is your heritage this is your this is your wisdom this is your knowledge this is everything it's you it's not owned by one of the twelve tribes it's owned by all of the people and in fact it's even wisdom for non-jews because guess what here's the big surprise there's only one guy who makes all of us so one God loves all people and would love knowledge because the world was created in wisdom and so therefore when we elevate our capability for being wise the impact of a wiser nation is the easiest path to healing our world tikkun olam so that's what the people's Talmud is all about and when the last five minutes I have now gifted to our class I had prepared anyone who would like fearing that this is what people would think I will show you that this database is designed to develop various products and one of them of course is an online app that would allow you full accessibility to be able to be able to see use this information so on but a another aspect is print so we have God willing we'll be ready hopefully soon next six months or so the entire shops in it the people's Talmud version and we also have this kind of like really trippy sort of this is a mock-up of course but we will have something which will be at about a 200 page catalog the catalog is really quite cool because it uses a new kind of technology which is called printed digital so printed digit means that you can like come in here again these are just examples but this would be for example it says the mystical but there will be 15 20 pages on the mystical so you might discover that and it always references where in the town where you can find these sources so you'll find that the good morning of orders order discusses that there are actually 18,000 other inhabited planets in the universe ok so you might read this little blurb and again we try to be very ADHD sensitive so everything is like limited but if you worried more you could into your device iPad or what have you and it would read the page and suddenly you have an involvement in reality where you would see little planets spinning around on your device while still looking at the page and bringing you more information as well as a link to website where you can then go for for the furthest so these are the various aspects of it I'll leave this anyone has a look afterwards they're welcome to but this is what I actually stole this book we're being recorded I actually was inspired by the line of Levi's many founding members Levi's rye bread you don't have to be Jewish to love Levi's so that's when you put here you don't have to be Jewish to love the Talmud share any Jewish wisdom with the whole world and why because everybody has a soul that's what the pupils come with is in it in a very big nutshell ok so having said that I will just say way into the class which is this idea nobody gets out if you're alive or do they what I did what you could do God willing at the right time and when we're ready and everything goes live is you kind of like me dropping a little coin into the slot machine you pull it down and you know you it just comes up like whatever whatever whatever but I went in there and I have again in that 450 section there are one category which is called the destruction of Jerusalem and when I use at all use I just use that one retrieval device of the destruction of Jerusalem and it pulled out 55 different sources through the entire tolerant now one other important thing all this is in English it's so it's very easy to use it's an English language there is a certain amount of Hebrew / I remain tracking for the more advanced student who wants to look up because there a shovel or whatever but it's not designed for that person it's designed for me and you who are more comfortable in English so I drop in destruction of the Jerusalem Temple and wham-o what happens with this tool is I mean I never my sheaf of days actually I've never been my early fall to the day I remember the first day I was actually able to learn the Gomorrah a complete line from beginning to end Solomon his summer camp and I remember taking one breath and really getting to the other side of the pool without like you know pumpkin out so I got to the other side and I'm so excited and I said to the guy I was learning with Ruth it was like from you receive a background my Grateful Dead background and he said I said this and if by the way I think the Talmud is really cool and I don't see my hair I pointed you've got that red white kind of side on the thing and so I was like it feels like you would open it whoom and you're going into another world and then I said look how beautiful the Talmud frames each page she's my daughter no but here's the Talmud and look at his frame he says Mikoto that's Rashi and that's post folk and that's another letter form format but you have to also read uh other than you know you're on line but okay fine meanwhile jump cut there's also situation even when I was then really learning a Sheena if by the end of this is Maude as we call it the semester or whatever we wanted to call it we had learned five pages that was like unbelievable was great I mean as much fun as taking plastic paper bubbles and just popping them all day long but it didn't feel like I got anywhere I mean when would I ever learn shops when would I really understand and the amazing thing is when for example here plopping in the destruction of Jerusalem suddenly all these different colores come together like a mosaic and they create a picture that you don't see if you'll take this aerial view fact I don't want to go too far down the steps I want to get to the actual material but I did this once on one of the other hundreds of choices which is modesty as a way of life and what's amazing is when you drop this in not only do you get these modesty references roll of the toilet but you also assuming that the Gomorrah begins at the beginning with Bravo you see the chronology that the Talmud builds for example what is the first reference in the Talmud that it really explores the idea of modesty what subject table for ten points what go into the bathroom long before you get to dress codes and other things that first definition of modesty is megamum broke laws about going to the ass room wild like the holy bathroom what is that all about because guess what there's no better way to know who you really are then when you are alone and if you show your self modesty in the bathroom means you show dignity to yourself and respect yourself and certainly you will show that to everybody else and that's suddenly you suddenly watch how when you look at the chronology of modesty through Talmud you see how it builds and where it goes and dress code is not even the second or the third it comes much later there's modesty in the way you speak modeling the way you dress is all these aspect of modesty that go into building the human being to a higher level of self dignity and how that reflects to other people so anyhow now we'll start the class sorry so this is supposed to be a class using a lot of people Talmud references that deals with as I mentioned the period of the three weeks that we are in and the glory and Braavos begins with Reggio cannot reveal can ignore says then the first parent it says that when every time reveal and finish the book of Job Ile his his gut said he said that man is destined to death and the animal is death destined to slaughter he said while a man is alive let him fill himself or herself with Torah and ma seemed to lean with Torah with wisdom and with good deeds to which the morrow also points out that the entire safer qohelet it's kind of recirculating or GCS Louisiana that's why forgot 20 letters and I always tell people like ADHD I like that the ADHD I'm gone so like anywhere there's more than four letters five any of so the morale points out there that the actually quotes the measures that says the entire book of qohelet is the last few verses and that the whole book is only a hug dama it's only an introduction where it begins with vanity of vanities and only somebody like King Solomon could say that me that domain also you guys bitter but King Solomon really had and you can still say that humanities and therefore what he has to do is you have to remove everything else from your world to finally get that here's the bottom line and the bottom line is Torah and mozzie to--they that's the purpose of living in this world and therefore there's a negation process that makes us appreciate I used to say my own words by Noah's Ark my just imaginary there's a whole anticipation four hundred twenty years and of course the question is you know if gods can go into the boat making industry can produce one boat every hundred twenty years hmm really small margins in that business so obviously the hundred and twenty years is the reference to human life Moses 120 you wish your first 120 although those of us that have been Israel for many years remember when the old lira was replaced by the new shekel everything was dropped the digit so everybody just wished you until 12 but classically life is a hundred and was that 34 minutes in the top three dishes right right so don't wish anything just good luck lagly but the point is is that 120 representative man's four person's life what do you do with your life and now look and now Noah is in the boat you know the lion bites in all the other things that go on and it's a difficult journey and finally the door opens and you know you could just imagine the ground is like sweltering and this and that and and it walks down to the arc there to the altar that he built and I always think the Christians have a really good take on that they have this classical image which I'm jealous of because I'm so cool which is the cloud over that one beam of light coming down so there's Noah and the one beam of life comes down what's the first thing God says to him he says now that I have your undivided attention sometimes a crush vertical has to strip away in a person's entire life just to get them focus on what is life and how important like this and what that mean is I remember a friend of mine from Asia tour rabbi Berger monkey Berger so that told me story once he was in America at a UJA event and there were you know they gave his class of whatever and this one guy came up you know had the kind of look you know with the cigar probably thought this was like a portable ashtray or something you know and he's like kind of showing off and so if you know the monthly who's just amazing he's kind of good at that kind out you know to size so he said to the guy he knows this is like selling over his kids he says what was your kids like guy lights up like nasus spaces is good yeah he said what would you tell your kids is worth dying for kind of interesting post UGA fundraising questions they have and as I've taken aback and I'm sure the others expect me to dance to like well which wing to the hospital did you donate right and so on so said matter what would you tell your kids is worth dying for and the guy was flabbergasted system nothing really honestly nothing if you can escape no matter what the embarrassment run away and fight another day as somebody once said right so nothing so you said I'll tell you something when you give birth to a child the only thing you're promising the child is that he'll die because nobody gets out of your life so therefore there must be something that while you are alive is so precious and so worthwhile that even if the price of admission is dead it's worth it because if you can grab that golden ring you will never die you will shed your body but you will never die you will live forever if you can connect with that because that's what this world affords us of this opportunity so when we begin to look at that and we understand we have to understand how precious time is the Talmud says that there are three passions one passion is the passion of heterosexual relations between man and woman and trust me that's a real passion but even greater than that believe it or not is the desire for rain to impregnate the earth and even greater than that is the desire the moment a person dies all for the sole to want to get back in the body and to do things it's kind of like when I was a kid I've never came out like you know fourth grade or whatever you finish your exam and you bring it up and when you come to the teachers table you you notice there's the answer page there and can I just like to see that for a minute and she says or he says sure but you gotta let go of yours and once you let those who knows you can never take it back so you let go of it ah ah so that's the same idea the moment the game is over being the the eyelids open and you really see what it was all about but that's too late you know that's not the time to wake up there's a story they used to say that in Europe when the borders were constantly changing one particular time the border to split the Jewish cemetery from the community and the Jews complained to the border guards and said look we have to bury our dead and they made special compensation but being who we are never to miss an opportunity it became a wonderful smuggling room so instead of taking our bodies we took out genes and diamonds and all the rest of it and after a while a new lieutenant shows up and you see this is going on and he sees to choose the leg kind of thing and is slugging down like the vodka your crappy job and he says what's going on and the soldiers say oh I don't know they're going to bury their desk really you know actually takes time out television just reminded me of so hold that belt we'll just do the joke real fast so there's a rabbi casting through town and they suddenly see him they grandma say rabbit we have no rabbi in our town and somebody just died - you eulogize him I'll try I don't know why I don't know you I don't know him animal anything he says and what's the guy's name mr. Schwartz yeah mr. Schwartz mr. Schwartz was a man of great charity somebody eles or no he wasn't he never had a penny to charity his life he fine mr. Schwartz was very Hospital bullet no he never had anybody at night in his palace get even better finally says can't anybody see something nice about mr. Schwartz one guy says yeah yeah his brother was worse so now so now have the lieutenant comes along yes like what's going on here and he says bury us it comes over to the Jews he says okay choose open up the casket Jew start to freak out what you talking about step religious you know respect to the dead and you start to cry anyhow they busted open there's nobody in there neither Crimea crying and the lieutenant's you know what now you're crying have you been crying before I would have never come over now I'm crying now it's too late the question is how do we wake up while we are alive to catch your life that's certainly worth capturing because we're all going to die question is do we want to continue living forever or is this really continent so feed this where we want to park the car I don't think anybody who wants to park the car here so therefore the question is how do we go forward and that's really what the three weeks do every year the three weeks are not morbid they're sober they are an opportunity to sort of do a timeout wake up why am I here why are we here and why are we here in Jerusalem no less why are you here that is Israel who are our people and what is our history what is our future and by waking up to that it actually prepares us to Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur because it becomes a sober period that then gives birth if you will to L which is an opportunity to really then rectify ourselves and to going forward but to be able to understand all of this we need to understand what were the causes and what was the impact of what brought about the three weeks so the first thing I wanted to share is a couple of sources here which I'll read with you and you'll get a feel for the way that people's Talmud is written as well or partly I sort of reduced it for the class question is the warnings what were the warning signs that honest rel was receiving to be able to realize that there was real danger now obviously if you really want to go in there this space for this is not the talent although courses that are live but it's primarily the naveen is the profits and each but again you could just read the naveen but without the Talmud you wouldn't understand that Shaolin or Miao were actually dealing with totally different perspectives even if they're talking about the same subject and - in Kabul Oswald when they talk about in my separation or Makabe they're not talking from the same perspectives but without the oral tradition without the Talmud one would not know that and certainly if you go into the small in the Dean like Oh Shia and so on you don't understand how each one of them is really kind of filling in a whole picture as to what it's about but the point I wanted to make here is to show you how the Gomorrah if you don't really know the vastness of shots you might not see how these pieces actually work together here's no more humo Talmud tells us the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple approached for 40 years the lottery of lamont Hashem or for God did not come up in the high priest right hand now we know that on Yom Kippur one of the miracles that happened where they had two pieces of wood let's say and one moment was La Boisselle and one of them was for God and had between animals there and what would happened would be actually the Gomorrah says the high priest would announce which one he was going to pick even though he was going in for a blind draw he would announce it and sure enough magically or miraculously that one would come up as the one that would come up in his right hand would always be the one for God because right hand is the greater power than the left hand and then the other one went obviously being the left hand however for 40 years suddenly this didn't happen suddenly for the sake of God was not happening that was like the first little hello the first little echo that was beginning not only that it says for 40 years there was another miracle on Yom Kippur and that was they would take just go say a ball of thread so I felt was called in English but they would put this red or crimson thread that would be seen at the ancients of the temple where everyone would see it and far away when the other animal was pushed off the cliff of Azazel and the atonement had been achieved a miracle would happen and the red cloth would miraculously turn white red being a symbol both of a sob and the stain if you will sin and white representing the both of these things ended or that purity thank you absolutely I knew I was going to count on you we wait this mall to the first input slipping you're slipping all right however now a big one Russia shut up tastes the same subject it qualifies a little bit deeper here the Gomorrah says that's 40 years in the second base of the dust clean on each day of Yom Kippur not only did the red thread not turn white which is what the other Gloria Yuma said but here it says it turned a darker red it was not just that it didn't show a Tolman or purity but actually that it showed that the situation was deteriorating the GU Morrison Hedren again the number 40 is a very important number 40 always means stability this like for example when you talk about a person should not learn couple on till they're 40 doesn't mean literally because the mobbing was the greatest Kaba list of his generation at the age of 13 so the idea 40 always represents balance that's why it's the letter of mem which is 40 which is the middle of a of the Torah and that's all so many ideas the forty days and forty nine to the forty years and then flood again the forty and Vlad that the baby is not human until the fortieth day which is wise into numerical value of the words laden sporting and so on and so on and so on so that always left a sense a position of stability so the stability was being lost so now the dorrance intention brings it it says the forty years beforehand the Sanhedrin moved out of its position the same hendren would realize that there was so much murder and chaos that had taken over Jewish civilization as we'll see more in a few minutes about what the situation was like in the Second Temple that they no longer could even judge these judgments and they began to move away however now we've got to jump back to the Gomorrah in Russia shut up and now it will take that the water from Sanhedrin and it will help us understand what does that mean that the same head removed away and it says that the same head removed ten times from Jerusalem ten different tossin or ten different stops were made by this inherit and each time was another way hoping it would wake up the nation that they would realize that the Sanhedrin is leaving them and then the gomorrah comes along and it says at the same time the divine presence began to leave the temple and it can do more says that divine presence didn't just leave it left through ten stages and it even ends on almost a kind of a very sad poetic note it said that even as it left in the hope that the Jewish people would wake up and feel like your mother is leaving and calling her back to her home to your home to the temple it says that in the final intense step which is when the divine presence was already in the desert it said it lingered there for six more months before it finally said goodbye in the hope that the Jews again would come back in their tuba now a little bit closer to the end of the beta mcdessureault of Jerusalem or bubblin that SIA points out me that the markets which were outside of Jerusalem or around Jerusalem but outside the wall they were destroyed three years before the city and the gomorrah says because the people would use torah law to bypass rabbinic law this is a very interesting thing first of all as variously i will cease with a little bit deep in a few more minutes that the sages always has this filter on their eyes where they understood spiritual impact on physical consequence in other words if all of the literature of oil bubbling and you shall be you will never see once that the sages said that jerusalem was destroyed because the romans were powerful or because the jews were weak it's not a headphone it's never the thought the thought is that it's all operating from a higher spiritual level and this is why many of us know the infamous gomorrah that when the romans were rejoicing as the jesus had had his madness where he took his sword and stuck it into the curtain in the holy of the base of the dust and blood came out and he said I've killed God like Hello right but what he believed so in that madness a voice had to come out and say you have only ground ground flour you've already killed people who are already dead which our sages elsewhere say that evil people are dead even while they are alive and holy people are alive even after they die so therefore that moment went when the city or whatever the temple was being destroyed it was clear there were spiritual ailments that were really the problem the physical manifestation that the Romans had a major army insignificant and actually if you studied to knock to find out there are some of the amazing stories in Tanakh that occur - horrible when he was assembly in an army even said you know what you've got too many soldiers send them back I wanted to be clear this is a miracle I don't want anyone to think that the IDF is what resulted in the success I like just a side note I always remember when I first came to Israel like n I am still impressed but I was more impressed with the IDF then it was actually in the Israeli army and after the Israeli army I became more impressed with God because clearly I realized sip-it you know doesn't like the Keystone Cops in our green uniforms but hey I thank God punch broke was sweet and D protects over us as we fumbled all over the place but this is what was in the nutty was the funny is what God said it's got to be clear that it's a shed that is bringing this forward so now the question is let's go into the clauses and you'll see this the one tightness says when the Jerusalem Temple was burning which the temperature Talmud says that both for the first and second temple we both know they were destroyed on the same day of Tisha pub a virtually ground on two days actually the ninth and the tenth of up many of the young priests the kahani would climb up up climbed up on the roof of the temple and they took the keys that were used in the service of the temple and they threw the keys upwards and they said we are obviously not worthy of these keys please and then they left into the flames committing suicide at the same time the Talmud says that the song at that moment when the temple was being destroyed that the lay bike's the Laveen were singing it says the gorgeous Springs one pursuit because you know we have a whole paragraph that we say or two Hill and let me say each day on that one it says God turned upon them their own violence so if you don't believe in coincidence right even the way to make crab which is the Hebrew word if you look at the letters also spells rockin a Shem only from God and either word coincident it's correctly coincided so therefore the deeper you can go the deeper you will see that every like the are Rizal says there's no there's no second in life and creation that's not unique so you can find everything's purpose just a question of how deep we go you know they're one set of Sullivan's Arcana bracha why in this model in the upcoming you see they're where they're going to learn beta it let you know the beta I mean one bait so all there are rabbinic laws there's no Torah law there and he says well that's why it's called beta it's not the good words you how well do you know how to cook an egg so the more you neither cook the egg the egg will be more tasty but less blessed so the same idea here that they were able to understand there wasn't a coincidence that the moment of destruction the song that the lay bites would be singing would be that a crush for achill was bringing our own violence upon ourselves and what was our violence so for that we go to which everybody here I'm sure it's million with the famous story in the goranson hundred like it's when your dad used to say do right we would be crying and your dad says you want something to cry it out I'm going to give you something to cry about well that's what a college girl who said with the infamous story of the spies they came back and they were all crying and I said oh yeah you like to cry I'm going to see to it that every night this year at this sorry the same year will be a day of crying that was dishes up when they were crying with the return of the spice and remorse says there is very interesting language but I don't want to go off on the sublet just throw it out this is that these spies spoke with their mouths what their eyes did not see but that that's for another class and that became the birth of tisha bub so now it's just a little I'm a little psycho here that seemed North it's quite beautiful it talks in contrast of crying for nothing about crying for something I mean more there says for example what's called good crime it says crying at night because the heavenly forces will cry with you and then it says when it comes to other people how that makes it known that it is good to cry for your friends who are in trouble or pain and sense that reading Galil ok this is like this is like a 480 hitter right he's ramming the wheels are not the head of the court the head of the Sanhedrin the head of the Jewish people I mean really the man upon all of you a descendant of ready this was a tremendous man nonetheless it created the rabbi I have found in my own personal encounter the greater the rabbi the more human the more down-to-earth the more sensitive than more practical they are so here the word says that ribbon gum Leo had a neighbor doesn't even say who the neighbor was but the neighbor had a son who died the Gomorrah said that webbing gum will cried so much for his neighbor's pain that all of his eyelashes fell out so that's not a alligator tears that's real cry that's real feel that's real love that's real compassion that's real understanding that's real I'm sorry I'm busy right now I'm dealing with a state of up there there's a human my neighbor and pain I cry doesn't matter what your level where status is and that was the beauty of a giant like Reverend Gumbel anyhow back to our story we then have a course coming back we're looking here for what was our violence we have this is probably the most infamous although really famous of all the Moors and that's the more in getting which it says there I'll just read it out the Talmud is discussing the destruction of second Talmud seems to point to several factors that add up to the clause what is interesting to note is that the reason I just actually said this is that's never did this is because of the strength of the Romans of the weakness of the Jews nonetheless the Gomorrah says that the Jewish people in Jerusalem had enough supplies to last for 21 years of the siege but because of internal Jew against Jew they all of those supplies because the party that wanted to force the juices the combat they destroyed all of those supplies and then the Gomorrah talks about three of the most incredibly wealthy individuals in those jump in those days such as big Dalian ben-gurion and so on and so on what they did give me tremendous wealth to try to avoid the calamity and of course the sad story of red soda rogue and act of forty fasted for forty years before the destruction of Jerusalem and because he was trying to his fast as a very holy man as his name so Duke would imply to Sadiq tried to be able to save Jerusalem however the worst of it all which is also the same Gomorrah is the infamous story of Kamsa and Markinson those of you that don't know it I'll just tell it to you very fast to keep it brief but this was an individual who was worst enemy with Bart Kamsa and his best friend was comes up and he said he was having a huge party and he sent out his messengers to go and bring his friend Compson made a mistake he went to Bart comes up and when Bart comes to heard that he had been invited to his arch enemy he thought wow look at that you know my arch enemy is reaching out maybe he's doing children maybe he's trying to bridge I'm going to respond I'm going to bridge then unfortunately what happened all of a sudden was when Mark comes was in the middle of the meeting and the fella by the master ceremony saw this he's outraged and says leave immediately and Mark Thompson says look I'll pay for my food leave immediately I'll pay for the whole freaking way just don't embarrass me in public leave immediately and as he left he realized that that rabbis all sat there and nobody said booth nobody cared about his pain and so he left and he became an authentic self-hating Jew who was bent on destroying and revenge the Jewish people and he comes to Vespertine who was the head of the Roman Empire and he makes up this whole lie that could use a rebellion and he says give me a carbon and I will and offering and I'll prove it he does a whole little stick to disqualify it etc etc etc but here's the mind-blowing part of the galore in case you don't remember the ending and this is true failure there's so much on it we can go a whole class on this one foot but we're not going to go just throw it out so we'll want you forever I sorry so you can think about it the Lord says that how horrible is embarrassing a person especially in public so the do-more says that because of the pain that bar concept had a cottage borough who helped him to destroy Temple and Jerusalem because for some reason somehow without that primary ingredient of compassion for the other and the reason it called the other because they're not like you that's why the other otherwise in your can so when you take off these nonsense classes of Orthodox reform conservative Jewish Gentile nonsense nonsense it's about loving God's world and the people that are in it and understanding how each of us play a different role into consumption so on maybe their problems of course when it comes down to legal issues and how to resolve it and that's authentic because the Talmud is again the Talmud is not a place where everyone gets together and agrees Howlett's where everyone gets together and argues but there's a kosher way to argue you argue where you respect your opponents you understand your important is an intelligent person and therefore you don't make a mockery don't make a fool of him you don't make jokes Adan you learn you respect your opposition and by that respect you will receive respect and when you have a situation of respected of dialogue and through dialogue can come resolution and that's what we lost we not only lost the respect of our concept or his opponent if you will but the ability to embarrass him at all costs that means we've lost the whole idea what the temple was for we didn't deserve how the temple attactive the more instead heading this is an extraordinary thing who was the arch enemy of the Jewish people a mullick where did a mullet come from well his mother was named close to the light letter but not all was actually the wife of noah anybody to Timna yes who's ten men Timna was this wild woman we don't know for sure who her father was a couple options on the board but she was this wild woman and Tim de went to convert to become Jewish she was Abraham she got the Yitzhak she goes to Yahoo look don't blame or sin agent on top 99 I'm with that and she goes to all three of them she's rejected and she says in Rashi Brees in homage as well she says it's better I should be a colleg ish I should be a account you might thank you to a subs family then to not be part of this Holy Family so she marries a sub son marries as a concubine le passé and her child is a mullick a mullick just think about what's going on today a mullet was born from a sperm from a rejected potential hunter somebody who really wanted to be part of our mystery it's an amazing thing and not just rejected up from out of Misaki yata but it just meant to say that we have not risen to the level of the full chicken the chicken is that deep level of understanding if the temple was destroyed by random hatred the temple can only be rebuilt by unjustifiable love not love that's deserving not qualified love unjustified love that person doesn't deserve to be loved love them that's the opposite of baseless hatred it's not about correct love it's not incorrect love it's about the hostile rhetoric Aloha regardless and being able to feel that sensitivity and to avoid that pain any Alison Eleanor comes in and says one more thing goes step by step what actually led step by step is amazing good morning sorry in Shabbos we're go step by step and you can actually if you just go carefully through the Gomorrah you'll see the deterioration but I've laid it out for you here it begins where the breaking of the bond of the nation God when Shabbat was no longer observed properly the first thing the more says that was the beginning of the end was there was no longer a sense of connection of what Shabbat brings to the Jewish people and how it connects us to God I wanted to tell you a personal story because I lived here for quite a few years so in in the first time that the first time ever movie theater opened in Jerusalem on Shabbat there were the Shabbat or Shabbos protests and what would happen would be very religious people would go to the movie theater on Friday night and they would start screaming shudders shudders am I wrong at the time but Mordecai what a wonder from the old city sorry what a high shine Burke okay he we were sitting around we're discussing this and he said you know if I were to leave these demonstrations I would do them very differently then was a and Rebbe what would you do I'm going to go down there Friday night and I'm gonna scream shudders like what is that what you're doing no they're screaming shudders what I argue to scream shove is so I know if you guys grew up of High Life magazine we had like those little pictures and a fine which was different than the other one so I returned to read oh okay I know I read these brilliant but I'm missing something that was being made what was the difference he said I'll side with the difference when they screen Shabbos what they really seeing it I couldn't kill you when I screamed showers what I'm saying is I could I would love you to come to my house every Shabbos and to see what the Shabbos is experience the beauty because if you really came to my home and you saw how wonderful Shabbat is you wouldn't dream of doing it harm so that was his understanding of what it means but that's the beginning of the break the second level the beginning of the break the gomorrah says that they then began to lose their personal bond to create a to God because they no longer would recite the Kriya Schmucker and therefore by no longer is having that particular bond the divorce says children were no longer sent to school to study Torah or God's wisdom you know it's interesting if you follow this but not heed to his credit recently said like last week or maybe two weeks ago he said in the press that his children or maybe one child just graduated high school from one of the top high schools in the country and he cannot believe they never saw adopt Kimura forget being religious don't think about that just leave that a Sarvis three the King and I and you and God but to be ignorant I mean be intelligent you know I remember when I was being hot at the same Spanish into becoming religious the guy who was uh was very much involved mortified Schiller he said to me he said you know you're not a non-religious Jew you're like a default to you like I do for nothing if you want to be a non religious Jew have to be educated you have to say yes will learn what is Shabbat to say I don't keep Shabbat you can't say they'll keep Shabbat have no idea what Shabbat is that simple the non religious Jew so actually went even to becoming non-religious agenda so that I know what I was talking about and the amazing thing is the more I learned Torah the margul is it wasn't at all what I thought it would be so is a complete reverse I remember once you know in the Shiva days I was at foursome there I was one of the early carbonyl ed Tom McClean at the Shiva and they would bring me in another one that guys often in to do like the little did he think that when the rich guy would show up it was always interesting you hear the different questions they would ask you and I remember Paul Riesling across Nebraska he was really really brilliant and he says to me he says how do you know you're now religious how do you know that this point you know at that point I really had a black hat I bought a suit which came a little packet of self applied dandruff you know I I knew had to like I mean I was in totally in so but we know how do you know the system says the fan is going to pass away and so I said well because I feel comfortable talking in shul during the opposite so that's how I do I have made it but the point is is that that connection that self connection of of knowing our relationship of the shema and that concept of Education it's not even about being religious it's not being knowledgeable knowing what it is so you know there's a another moment I don't want to go into much now but this is to show you how this plague of lack of education is not new to our generation the gomorrha says elsewhere i don't member it was Elio and nothing I think it might have been he was walking through the destruction you saw a child would come from the very illustrious wealthy family picking barley seeds out of animal dung to eat and he said to the little boy do you want to live I can save your life and the little boy said of course I want to live just tell me what to do and he said say mouse rel and the little boy said no way I was trained never to say SH myself I was trained to never open up and have a connection to God and the galore Saracen pulled out a little Idol and unfortunately fell on the arm all and that was the end of his life and so therefore we can see the power of education how it can be a double-edged sword in the two directions in which it goes the next step ignore says then they began once a connected disconnected the nation in an individual from God they then disconnected their connections to each other amaura says the relationships between people became weakened with the rise of arrogance no one saw anyone else as being more important than themselves and people just stopped caring about each other the next level then came the worst of both worlds when people started to ridicule righteous scholars which was a smack in the face of God's chosen ones and just simply between people not having any respect for people who are different than them and then the final straw that broke the camel's back what would be sorry normally I try to do the whole class in just one breath but this will take till what would be like after all of these horrible events remember like the movie closing count there's like okay now they see there's one spaceship wow that is a lot of spaceships then the mother spaceship shows up so what was the mother spaceship that finally broke the Jewish people and led to the destruction of Jerusalem and it says there were no more men of truth meaning there were no more honest businessmen to be found in Jerusalem it's amazingly here that this idea of honesty in business somehow is the final chord that holds it all together and then in the absence of that that becomes the thing which destroys everything and what's even more important and this again is the whole idea what is the lesson of the three weeks the lesson is that teach us it can happen it can happen it can really happen god forbid we could all be stripped naked and brought into the street right here shop by Hamas happened in Europe to happen here to quote the mayor kahana's or in Abraha he once said that if you say it can't happen you should believe it's already begun and if you say it could happen then you will be alert to make sure it never will and so that's the lesson of the three weeks it happens if we blow it there's ramification this is not an intellectual process this is like a death for our families and ourselves and that's the wake-up call of what the three weeks are supposed to bring forward just a few more things here the Camorra de comedia says of the 18 negative prophecies in the Book of Isaiah the worst of all of them according to the Talmud is that the Jewish nation's leaders became like Fox's sons of foxes clever wicked people but they acted righteous right so I actually have my own little insight on that I say that at what point it Yitzhak know that he could give a blessing Yaakov write this up was no fool he wasn't fooled because he was blind please this is the first man to go through the resurrection of the Dead he was vision beyond our world and through the Mareth to c'mon Chavez says of the atop the musci up comes all world cheek on this we attack so he was not fooled by little charade that poopoo it feels like Asia okay I'll give you the blessing that wasn't it all he knew that you needed power to fix the world a sir was a powerful man therefore he knew if he could just channel and harness that power for good then ASA would rectify the world and allow Yakko to sit learner all day long it would be a gene that they would work together but then when he realized that Yaakov was able to morph the to the Addai Naevia died as a sub that Yahoo knew how to have the strong and the powerful hand he wasn't just the is Shiva buffer he was a man of the world like King David but like King David he didn't lose his spirituality so Cole Cole yato his voice remained holy and pure even though his body had to get out there and get dirty in the world of ASA and be successful in combat that's what he realized up I can give the brachot Ayako because she's able to do both of them it's one package sadly there are people today that has reversed that process when you look at them they look very holy they have the hands of Yaakov but when you listen carefully to their words there is a violent and delicious and anger it's the voice of the a subject comes out it's not the voice of Y apples I mean certainly thank God we are blessed with many authentic so thinking and real talmy túcume but we have to understand that in every generation there are still the ten spies we just have to know which one of the twelve was Cole Evan Yeshua but there's still the ten spies and so therefore this is something that becomes the most devastating that the gomorrah says when all of a sudden you have leaders who righteously but they're clever and sneaky and dishonest like foxes the galore goes on and says as well just once in humor and Bubba Mencia says sorry you one shot us throughout the Torah and the Talmud there is no lack of emphasis upon the need for honesty in courts and in the legal systems many people who care about bringing the world to a better place don't realize how central and crucial and honest and accessible court system is for healing a society when people feel they cannot get a fair decision because the courts are corrupt or they are so overwhelmed that judgments are delayed for years or that the courts have no teeth and even if they issue a fair decision they have no proper enforcement tools this is the beginning of the end of that society the Talmud highlights the horror of what it was like with corrupt courts scribes and lawyers towards the end of the first temple in the downfall of Jerusalem the Talmud cannot drive this point home strong enough it says that all punishment that come into this world are due to bad judges it also says that the divine presence will not rest in Israel until all corrupt judges and leaders are removed from the land the Talmud adds that if we get rid of the bad judges we will also get rid of the corrupt police and if we get rid of the egomaniacs and arrogant self-hating Jews we will also get rid of those people who caused the nations of the world to hate us on top of that the Talmud says that God will crush those Torah scholars who help their extended family become corrupt judges and then cover up their evil one more more please do more in human this also might be quite well known verses that there were those who are holy on the outside again these are just two points to emphasize the point I wanted to make before which is the idea of the hands in the hands of Yaakov with the voice is a voice of ASA so good morning human says people who are holy on the outsides are very corrupt on the inside Talmud tells about very tiny Jewish history went during the period the Second Temple the yellow was the first temple as the position of the high priest was being bought with money instead of earned with real merit Talman contrast the two holy priests of the first temple with a corrupt high priests of the second temple the first temple stood for four hundred and ten years and had only 18 cohen girdles while the second temple lasted four hundred twenty years it had more than three hundred cohen goes tragically both of the temples met with a horrible and end however the talmud was odd to say that the first jerusalem temple was destroyed because the nation become involved in idolatry immorality and murder this is the famous Gomorrah everyone's probably familiar with while the Mishkan many people aren't aware of this the Mishkan was destroyed and he stood also for almost four hundred years it was destroyed because of immorality and disrespect for holiness but the second jerusalem temple was destroyed because of the people unjustified hatred for each other now watch this this is amazing watch how the gomorrah wraps this point up from this the town learns that unjustified hatred is equal to idolatry murder and immorality be combined since it took these three sins to destroy the temple but only hatred to destroy the other temple now watch this the talmud makes it interesting observation stating that while the people of the first jerusalem temple can we use the word kill oniy if they're involved in idolatry and immorality and what can we say that maybe so of them it says that while they were wicked they still trusted in god and strangely the Gomorrah says um okay do-do more strangers that i have never been cool i staple them out of order and somehow it would have make sense of it that is really bad stuffy okay ended sorry so it says here and still interested in god however oops yes and you may never know the other one because my guests actually forgot ok page 5 is God's house of F Italian but by the second temple the Gomorrah says that while they were very observant and they learn Torah they did not really believe in God which is kind of amazing because when you think that the whole reason that you're observant and you believe in God I mean is because you believe me God so I remembered with North winder from the broth of the Russian Shiva of Asia Torah once told me something very interesting he said that when God opened the doors for the Jews to come back into Aaron Sorel the non religious Jews seized the opportunity it was supposed to be all the achieve is that were supposed to come back and build this as a tourist center but they stayed on the sidelines and the non-religious Jews came they did all the work and then he said Kersh Berkeley then opened up the gates of heaven to bring Cuba into the world and who grabbed chuva all the non religious Jews we grabbed it we became Bali Juba but I said why did the religious people to do chuubo but he said that's difficult because the religious people often of course they're many exceptions grow up in the same way to grown up with Mao say Tony I need a little red book it's a lifestyle it's not a process that a person necessarily goes through and God forbid the outcome of not processing what you go through could lead to somebody who's very observant and really does not believe in God and on the other hand you could have the beauty of the Jew in the fact that he might work she might have a strange themselves so far we'll all kinds of horrible sins but still deeply believe in God that does just share with you rabbi by the woods front give equal time issues for Samman from Horsham at once in a very beautiful thing everybody knows I'm assuming the measures that says there were three reasons the Jews were able to come out of eggs up because they didn't change their Jewish names they spoke Hebrew and they dress like juice hmm really hmm let's take a Jew named odd motion available think motioning was Moshe a Hebrew name no gypsy name right or WC Fields said he took shine right it was a Gyptian name okay what was motions Hebrew name nothing dear that's the message was it the more say yes Tuvia Tuvia toes and a victor those are three names moshus Jewish name I promise you if you ever want to win in trivia most Jews will not know the answer Moses o greatest Ruvo minds look to see dr. Beth guess what his name wasn't Hebrew strike one did Moshe dress and look like a Jew no what did see pora tell her father I just met an Egyptian right so she didn't come back and say somebody who measuring just wandered over here in the desert she said I just met an Egyptian doesn't even look Jewish and probably coming out of the castle or palace of Pharaoh probably also spoke Egyptian so what's that yes oh the rule was three things you get out of jail for free right and Moshe struck out and I'm left and I played bball Vasko baseball bit is three strikes you're out Moshe three strikes you're out but it wasn't out okay I mean actually that's a little side point oh well die always I always wanted to hold that thought for a little side joke so yes we said you know you have 79 you go when you reach a certain day you either have heard it all or almost I have never never heard this and you are a hundred yeah thank you so that's the end of my classical idea so that about said so so I'm going to hold that thought because it's just like something else is sort of kind of funny if you really think about it Moses was the original weatherman SDS revolutionary right and what does he do he's the one who's going to bring the revolution right to Carl's face but God interesting leaned up says hold on I want you at 3:59 in the morning get down to like the water hide behind the bushes and pop out when farro is going down now why was follow up going down at four o clock in the morning because in case you ever looked up in the word and dictionary under God you'll see God's don't go to the bathroom so since Barlow was God he never went to the bathroom probably a little golden cork or something but he didn't go in the bathroom so what happened most men can tell you this you wake up in the morning he makes a beeline down to the water and while everyone is sleeping this huh right that was startled so God do this so God said the faro get here at 3:59 so oh I'm sorry - thank you sure I get it 3:59 so subtle photos come down motion pops out and follows doing the famous one like juggle right and all of a sudden he said Yoho what do you want they just let my people go make a deal let me go let you go right so it's like I mean just the beauty the humor God playing with this who thought he was God that's our point one two three strikes now Moshe so what did that major Shmi Cerveris explains it beautifully somebody's connected to God doesn't need that somebody is really learning Torah and living it doesn't need that but for the guy whose name is it see and the first shirt on his button is here it has got this big hairy chest and on it as a giant mug and dolphin and he's in Tel Aviv and he's making falafels and he's talking Hebrew thought in Hebrew we're in love and of it and everyone knows him is it see he's coming with us he is also coming that's what the mentorship teaching us not that you need those things to connect to God God knows if you're there or if you're not dead but God loves us so much but even if that's all you have you're still part of the family and you're still coming along okay let's try to wrap this up with one last thing here especially since I left that a whole page you know I say the spell just repeated because I just so love it but some of you are old enough to remember to set so when I was teaching and you'll be the time when people do you mind if I be like recorder up here you know and then over the sudden you would hear popping something come running from the back and so one of my greatest joys of life was wait until they come up and when you flip it I would say and that is the meaning of life imagine three yvy be one can't do it anymore doesn't work because like telling somebody taking pictures well how many more you got left on the roll doesn't he have one so to wrap this up here I'm going to take you into a whole other space and we're going to share with you what do we deal with the three weeks so the three weeks come from the other side no not a moon but the other side of the mountain right we have Passover to ship world or climbing climbing climbing climbing we reach the fiftieth gate of wisdom which is where you go beyond time in space and now you connect and you receive the infinite and so on and that's wonderful but how do you come down off the mountain what's it like coming down any you guys are hikers you'll know coming down much more dangerous than going up because you fall going up you're okay full going down you can be by light exactly so how do you come down off the mountain how did most should come down off the mountain so the precedent of how to come down off the mountain with some powder huh Algrim goes up on just around the corner here ha Maria B he offers up the Sun it's God won't go into that right now with that's all about when he comes back the language was he walked with the Noreen the novel actually to really fully developed individuals of a soil and a leather but Eliezer scuse me but they were called Maori because compared to Arab they were just like movements they weren't really people at that point and still he understood how to be with them that the greatness of spirituality God forbid not being above people but being good people like being with everybody says by moshe of a know if you talk to the greatest scholar and talk scholarly but it was a little child he taught buh-ba-ba-bah because you talked to each person as to who they were it's all beautiful in front of God so therefore you have to understand that Abram came down off the mountain not to blow away everybody but to enhance everybody to be with them and gently gently help them to go step by step higher same thing by Moshe Ben Moshe Vayner did not break the first local out of anger and I darn it that was not what happened he understood that the nation couldn't handle these Luke holt we couldn't handle these tablets he saw they're still building idols they just built the golden calf there's no way they'll be under able to understand what the first tablets represent I'm going to get rid of this because it's more important that I'm going to go back down my mountain and be with the nation so what happens is we now receive an unbelievable light of Torah unsure hope that light of Torah is given specifically as we come down the mountain heading towards Tisha's off because inside Tish above is the future rectification in the whole world Tish evolve is called Moe a which is a holiday tisha love is the birth of mushiya tisha love is the future based on the dust fish above it everything we long for but we have to rectify it in the only way we can rectify it is by elevating the world a to personal example not by preaching but by being and be by helping by crying till our eyelashes fall out if some of our neighbors are in and by having that level of sensitivity that's our ability this is why we nachman of breslev points out that when we on Tisha up when we read the book keynote which is the mourner to cry they are the same letters as the word cocoon which is the fix which means if you believe you can destroy then you have to know you have the power to rectify and that's what it's actually in the gomorrah many times there will be an argument and they will not be resolved and the point will be as we say in modern-day hebrew take oh I take one Hebrew today needs a time but it means it could be an unresolved argument why was it unresolved because they were unable to get to the 50th level of wisdom where there is no conflict so therefore it fell short they didn't have the ability to reach the 50th level of wisdom but when Eliyahu comes along which is what the word take who actually refers to lel when he comes along he will bring the fiftieth gate of wisdom that's why if you take the word take qu and you add the nun it spells she could because that's what's missing in the world is that you couldn't how do we do this we do this each one of us on our own level in this is the last point in the class and that is through our praising God now it's very easy or easy herb to praise God when everything is going well have never personally experienced everything going well I wouldn't know but Friends of my experience things going well their life have told me it's easier but when these are not going well in your life and still praise God that is awesome and I'm going to show you something which I found awesome this comes from the compilation but I will show you how we actually print God from the most painful and the lowest of all levels and that is I'm going to say the word once but them going to distort the works God God minute that is the word hallelujah which is Hallel to praise God cup as God's higher name that name of hallelu cup shall now use it as as pronunciation that name there has the numerical value of 86 86 will immediately a lot of people here in the back row know is the numerical value of a Loki God as Elohim created this world it doesn't say bodacious Bora Hashem inspiration bara Elohim God Elohim and Elohim is the same numerical value as the word hot tavaa the world of nature the aspect of godliness that creates natural order and science is operated by the name of Elohim and that therefore to recognize that L o team who'll cash em or shampoo Elohim as we see on Yom Kippur is the ultimate of Sh'ma Israel to understand that the aspect of God is UK both K which is above nature and the aspect of God is Elohim which is the force of nature is all it has it's all one that's the whole getting to be able to realize that is the Maral explains that the challenge of understanding this is actually the Star of David the underworld of the physical world is to realize that there is nothing natural about nature nature is just a series of incredible miracles so the challenge is to see the miraculous nature of nature and conversely on the spiritual world is to understand that it's not miraculous there is a science there is a nature learn around how to understand that the spiritual world has a real order to how it works there's a sign find it so there's understanding the nature of the miraculous while understanding the miracle of nature and that will unlock and bring together those two planes into a hub into one one motivated by a Shen one motivate may love team and they are both claims for Allah that's one level of how Luke up another level a Luca is that there are multiple names of a Shem one the other Shem is X yet again I'm distorting the correct pronunciation FD is what God says to Moses at the burning bush I will be what I will be Exia is called Tector it's the crown it's the highest level where we don't question anything from God it's whatever guard is it's God so therefore it's okay it's just beyond our little pcs we don't have that mainstream wisdom so we have to defer to it as its God akia and then there is also another name of my shed which is other koi which is the way we actually pronounce your cave up case at the koi the Lord master and now the koi is God's name as Mulford on this ground so therefore when one says hallelu come to praise God they are actually bringing the highest level of Hashem's name akia and bringing the crown down to the kingdom of melters that's the other aspect and here's the last thing if you look at the word hello cup you'll notice that it actually has God's name in it it has God's name for later name of God and it also has twice the letter love it so the whole letter name of God it's causing Hebrew to float in the way that the letters are ordered you know that in the creation of the world God permeated the four-letter name of God in 12 different aspects each one of them are the primary force behind each month of the year that's why you have four seasons each one is a different letter of your cave of K and so on and so on so the order of the letters of your cave of K in this particular arrangement palooka is the month of Earth it's the month of tragedy and so therefore we have the ability through the letter lawmen like rebbi akiva says in his famous book called the put the letters the letter Obama represents the heart he says there because the heart sends blood in both directions through the body but the idea the letter lammott is it's actually two words it's low med and mom ed is to learn and to teach it's to receive and to give that's the lammott so the challenge of this world called Lila darkness or night is that the UK the higher essence of God can be found but you need to go through the learning process and why there are two llamas and Lila for the same reason there Leonard Beck increase Malibu Baja the double Beck's because the more says your Yates our toes and Yuri ate Sahara you have to serve God with every power that you have your powerful good and your powerful bad channel it all to service a god and that's the double lawmen and that's the ability to convert night in today and when you reveal that it goes from Lila into how the Luke up to praise God and at that point a person can come into the month of up into the darkness of it all still praising God still bringing the crowd down to this level and converting Titian up from the most terrific day in our history to DES radish M the greatest of all holidays of our future [Applause] you
