this Torah class is brought to you by
Torah anytime.com okay we have 10 more
minutes to try to figure
out so what do we need to
do to build the B
mikdash and to bring the Gula what more
do we need to
do you know we D numerous times that
Hashem should redeem the Jewish people
that hasem should rebuild the B mikdash
we say it
in we say
in we say we say we say when we take
three steps back we tell
the we are waiting for this the entire
day we don't think about this just
during the entire day we put
Onin we remember took us out
we anticipate the coming of the every
time we
remember we likewise remember hasm is
going to redeem us but it didn't happen
yet so what more do we need to
do the tells us on
the is nobody seeks her out
says from here we learn you need to seek
her out
what do you mean we need to seek her out
we're seeking her out we're ding for her
the whole day the whole doing is full of
request to rebuild the Bas of mikdash we
are seeking her out what more do we need
to
do the first thing we need to do is we
need to define the
word what does it mean to seek her
out from here we learn she needs to be
sought out what does it mean to seek
something
out we we have the
word in
the in it says that if you kill
someone avoid killing people okay don't
kill
anybody and Hashem
says if somebody kills
someone I will seek out this person says
the
T I will lay a claim claim the word
means to
be to
be it's not enough to ask for
a you have to
be you know what the difference between
asking and being to asking
is hey ra could you make me a nice
sandwich tonight on rye maybe a nice
omelette with some mushrooms in it so
I'm asking him I don't I don't do well I
don't want egg I'm just just by way of
example I don't need eggs after a
fast what do I eat you could come over
you could see anybody wants you're
invited what is said com it's not a by
the way that wasn't a real invitation
that was a completely disingenuous
invitation I didn't mean that
I'm asking him that's what it means to
ask but if I lend somebody
$10,000 and I say pay up I'm not asking
him that's not a disingenuous question
request that's not even a genuine
request I'm demanding my money you owe
it to me that that's what it means to be
TOA
she is no one demands her we D for it
like hey you want to give us oh no okay
no
problem next I'll make my real request
in these are just you know going through
the motions nobody demands her you have
to demand you have to say
this you said you're going to do it it
when is it going to happen you have to
be not ask for
it and here's the other
trick in the aftermath of
the he didn't say have mercy on these
people he didn't
say do them he
said why should Egypt say
God that you took them out to kill them
this is not going to be good for your
reputation that's
how and then
by said if you kill him now you know
what they're going to say they're going
to say God you didn't have the power to
bring them
into so what did hasem
say I I forgive them because of what you
said says Rashi because you said this is
going to reflect bad on me for no other
reason from here we learn a very
important principle you could pray and
pray and pray and pray but it might not
work until you say God this is not for
me it's for
you forget about me forget about me
forget about my suffering what about
your suffering in fact the
says that we have no right to pray to
Hashem and say give me Rua what do you
mean give you Rua God decided the person
should be sick for their benefit to
elevate them so God knows what's best
who are you to DAV in that it should go
away doesn't even make sense says daving
doesn't make sense how could you DAV God
decided you need this says the only way
for to work is to say hasem I know for
my benefit the difficulty is is
worthwhile but you suffer when I'm in
pain this is not good for you oh says
Tak you're right it's not good for me I
did it because it's good for you I only
made the the illness or the difficulty
because it's good for you so what you
can tell God it's not good for me God
knows it's good for you but you can tell
Hashem I know it's good for me but it's
not good for you because when I'm in
pain you're suffering God I don't want
you to suffer
that's the only way T Works this is not
a trick this is the only way could work
you can't D and hasm I need money God
Des saw God knows you don't need the
money it's better for you not to have it
but when you don't have it and you're in
pain God's in
pain so I tell you two stories we'll
wrap it up first
story my father gunai told me an amazing
story he was taking my grandfather for a
routine procedure my grandfather was
well over a 100 they had a they had to
clear something out
routinely and it was terribly painful it
was terribly painful for my
grandfather and my grandfather was the
most Gentile person you could ever
meet but he he was soic in pain and my
father would say as much as it hurt zi
it hurt me more to hear my father would
say to hear my father in pain to hear my
father in pain it hurt me more than it
hurt
him so we
say why we have to suffer I don't know
we deserve
it but we know that you're
suffering and your suffering hurts
us we are
B that there's a in the world that
people don't value the ideals of the T
that you that the Jewish people are down
in the dumps that reflects badly on God
so forget about us what about
you my friend Morgan Stern told me that
during the Holocaust the kenberg Reba
when he would say the following P he
would weep bitter tears most people get
encouragement when they say this the
would weep bitter
tears even when I live in the shadow of
death I'm not
afraid you're with me God so usually we
understand it to mean I'm not afraid of
difficulty God is with me but the Clen
BG rebba would
say even when I'm in the shadow of the
Abyss I'm not afraid of that I deserve
it it's for my
benefit but you know what hurts me
most what hurts me most is that when I'm
in the shadow of the
Abyss you have to be here with me why do
you have to suffer Hashem why I have to
suffer I know you know it's good for me
but why do you have to suffer that's
what got him that's what made him cry
that when he was suffering the ream was
suffering so you ready this is what I
call the dynamic duo to inject into
youra how can this be rejected imagine
if you didn't just ask Hashem to bring
the Gul you demanded it and IM imagine
if the way you demanded it was re I'm
demanding it not for me not for for us
I'm demanding it for
you can you imagine if you added those
two ingredients to your how powerful it
would
