people always ask why is it that rebuke
is rare but at the same time the Tor
says that it's necessary because in the
Prophet Jeremiah says and also page 14a
the BET mikdash was not destroyed Hashem
didn't decide to destroy the BET mikdash
until he officially saw that there's no
more people actually to rebuke anyone no
one was willing to rebuke anyone anymore
says now say there's no one to rebuke
anyone anymore there's no way any one's
going to do and if no one's going to do
CH might as well destroy it just going
to get worse from here the ra talks
about rebuke but there's actually even
more in gives you the laws of rebuking
but one of the main things that it talks
about is that someone that does not
rebuke someone who doesn't rebuke person
that is let's say for example violating
a like a you know rabinal Mitzvah
because he thinks he's not going to
listen that's one thing but that does
not relieve him from the mitvah of
rebuking many people think that if
someone is not going to listen then
you're absorbed you don't need to rebuke
him that's only on it's only and it's
only on things that are not if someone
is violating Shabbat you have to rebuke
him regardless of whether they listen to
or not to such an extent the rambam says
in chapter six of he lists and also in
41 he talks about how the uh failure to
rebuke is one of the four sins that so
severe that hasem will take away this
person's ability to do chuva meaning
that if someone refus does refuses to
rebuke other people he is hasem is going
to put him in a situation where he
himself can't do Chu he's not going to
have obviously everyone can do but he's
going to remove his so when is it when
do we have to rebuke we have to rebuke
with anything that's any anyah that's
the if you see somebody driving on
Shabbat you have to rebuke him he says
when it comes down to a Biblical sin
when it's a Biblical sin initially you
have to try to rebuke them privately
without humiliating them it's a biblical
sin if it's Shabbat initially private
but if continues to sin after you've
rebuked him he continues to drive in
Shabbat he continues to violate the
Torah not just a rabinal sin that like
he continues to violate Tor you have
100% permission from the Tora to
embarrass him in public here he says he
may be put to shame this is actually
what it says in here he may be put to
shame in public and his sin may be
publicized me mean you can actually put
a bulletin board in the middle of
Highway Joe drives on Shabbat exactly
why because they're violating the Torah
violate Tor you have to there's no there
they're not considered someone that
you're not allowed to embarrass they're
beneath that they're not they're not
following the law so therefore they they
actually get abused by the law he may be
subjected to abuse to scorn and curses
until he repents as was the practice of
all the prophets of Israel this is
actually what prophets used to do so
this is actually part of the reason why
the prophets were killed but nonetheless
when someone is does a Biblical sin you
actually are allowed to embarrass them
of course also talks about of how you
should do everything you possibly can to
not embarrass them we're not here to
start throwing rocks at people you know
to to embarrass them you have to do
things in a nice way bring them a
lecture send them a lecture give him a
CD talk to them convince them yeah
invite them for Shabbat you get you get
more more bees with honey than you do
with uh something else but the point
being is that if someone continues to
talk and ruining everybody else's you're
allowed to embarrassing in public again
not a open ticket to embarrassing people
in public but this is to make sure that
we all understand where is the life
where is this line of not being allowed
to embarrass people public and they just
desecrate A's name we don't have to say
anything we have to be quiet people said
no listen it's embarrass in public no
it's not you actually have to do it why
because you went against the T says in a
place that is there's no consideration
for no consideration for Honor or or
anything like that it's off it's off
limit so this is the last of it and
that's one of the most important things
that you need to understand one story I
tell you from
T uhem came to Joshua yesu after afteru
he said why do you use such a language
to frighten my people tell all my people
hm's not going to forgive you hm's going
to punish you is Gom is this what why do
you say I'm not forgiving didn't I
forgive them after they complained about
me 10 times in the desert didn't I
forgive them after the idol worship
didn't I forgive them after they
complain about the man didn't I forgive
them after they all these thing didn't I
forgive them he saying about me he's
asking Yeshua he's asking yeshu he's
saying about me Yeshua says I only did
it to scare them so they listen to what
you
say writes
this writes he
says kissed his hand kissed yeshua's
hands and his forehead thanking himem I
don't know what that means he kissed his
hand all I know is hm doesn't kiss my
hand so meaning that hashem's strategy
of rebuke same thing does not this is
not an innovation this is the way it's
always been until the last few hundred
years but we need to know what Gom is we
need to know what Alaba is we need to
know what losing Al is because we need
to know the price in order to know
what's on the line once we know what's
on the line it doesn't matter what the
details are of how much suffering is how
much you just need to know there's a bad
place a good place get to the good place
cuz the bad place you don't want to be
in you don't need to know where you're
hanging from and how you're hanging you
just need to know there's a hanging we
all do CH we all get closer to we all
actually do what hasem wants the way he
wants it not start creating rules do
you have any questions no okay so let's
say thank you
