Turn Friday into Erev Shabbos #32 - Get Pumped

[Music] is [Music] all right everybody it's turn friday into arab savage time our little earth party all right everyone getting there of shabbos to you wonderful to be back together yet again turning friday into arab shabbos okay just working on zoom has a very annoying mandatory new feature of a waiting room and having to admit everybody i want to thank our good dear friends mendee and super fishman for sponsoring turn friday into arab shabbos series as exclusive jay rivka basti por alfredo thank you so much for your generosity here we are again another heir of shabbos happens to come around every friday afternoon around this time and also eraviantov coincide and we spoke last week about the intersection between arab shabbas and erevyntif hashem visiting us our visiting him the kedusha that is natural the kedusha that emanates automatically and the kedush mechandis that we give and here we are again tapping into that dual kedusha that intersection that combination of those two kedushas as we enter the last days of yante miniatures torah coinciding with shabbos yet again a privilege and an opportunity to be able to celebrate to be able to celebrate together there's a very interesting allah says and the quotes records that whatever money we spend to honor shabbos and yantif does not come out of the money that was determined on rosh hashanah that we are allotted and allocated we just concluded rosh hashanah through yom kippur today is hoshanah rabbah and the zoar describes hashanarabha not just as a day in which we encircle them as bear seven times but it has a component of din it is the culmination of shana rabba of the yamam it is when the gates have already been closed on the ilah but the piscatawa the kevitl the note we can squeeze through the aravos that we beat reflect the fact that even when we're beaten we can move our lips our elbows are the lips we can continue to move our lips we can continue to doubt them from the depths of our hearts we continue to ask for the things that we need so rosh hashanah yom kippur through hoshanah rabbah and now the gates are really close now we can't even strip a note through and get it all the way in at this point it's been determined the maximum money we're going to earn this year not necessarily what will make but many understand the range from the minimum to the maximum of what we might qualify of what potentially we might make this year so the gemara invites beta tells us that it is determined rosh hashanah yum kippur and hoshanah rabbah it's been determined and that's what the shaykh records mr bureau writes that the money we spend on shabbas and yantif so the month we invest and there's a big discussion among the post and what that means how do we do so responsibly i'm not allowed to go out and buy you know 150 bottles of wine i can't necessarily buy first cut corned beef for every every meal that i have on shabbos and yantiff and then expect that it's not going to be reduced or deducted from what was allocated for me on rosh hashanah it's a big discussion it means within reason what's reasonable to purchase what's reasonable to buy what's reasonable to be able to uh use on shabbos and yantiff is not deducted the grow the villenegon is a beautiful interpretation ben welcome aboard it's great to have you the uh has a a beautiful interpretation the girl has a beautiful interpretation and he says knows the mission we say friday nights by mehmed lincoln if a jew on shabbos extinguishes the light because you're trying to save some money you want to save oil you want to save the candle you want to save the wick you are responsible you have violated the prohibition to extinguish a fire to extinguish a light and the village on the grass says why does it say it should say the sheep individual who couldn't stand the burning of that fuel or that wick or that candle the frugal individual who couldn't withhold and therefore extinguishes a fire on shabbos high if they're liable it should say they extinguished it why does it say kirchhas as if one extinguished it and the gra says means khas means the individual who's so scrupulous and vigilant and mindful and careful about every penny of theirs which generally is a virtuous righteous attribute the righteous we care we understand that it is uh resources are a driver that can help others it's what makes the world go round we should be vigilant and careful about every penny but when you think that by extinguishing that light on shabbos you're high you're liable you did something wrong you violated the prohibition of extinguishing you're you think you're saving money you're not saving money why because what's allocated for us already on rosh hashanah yum kippur what is sealed on hashana rabba what has been determined as the maximum that we can earn how high our stocks are going to go what kind of invest return our investments are going to give how high our salary will be this year the bottom line of our profit of what we're going to make and our expenses this year all of that has now been signed and sealed and this year is going to be delivered but it does not include what we spend on shabbos and yantev so you're going to be cheap you're going to be frugal you're going to deny your deprive yourself your family of enjoying shabbos and yantif again within reason can't go crazy and live outside your means unreasonably beyond what you can afford but within reason you're going to get cheap you're kickass it's as if you're saving but you're not saving because really it's already been determined and it doesn't include it doesn't include chabazinyantif so this is it with the culmination and conclusion of hoshanah rabbah now it's been determined our income for the year has been set has been finalized has been determined and all that's left is for us to realize that yanta to honor it and to appreciate it and to respect it is something that's left to us and it will not be deducted or reduced from that which is given to us we should spend wisely but relatively freely to honor the shabbos and to show our respect and our honor towards towards the shabbos it's on friday you got to get ready that's why we meet that's why we listen to our song that's why we have our whatsapp group turn friday into arab shabbos all to inspire and to motivate us to get ready why do we need to get ready wanted to get ready so if nissan carlos explains that there are two reasons number one you got to get ready it's not easy i won't lie to you the last couple days my wife and i look at each other as we often do in holomoid she can't believe she's got to cook again and i can't believe i got to cook up drushes and she room again she can't believe she's back in the kitchen i can't believe i'm back at the keyboard and we both say you know it's been a long jount of season elo rosh hashanah seriously yom kippur first days of sukis there wasn't a shabbos colomoid this year we were spared and yet still it's exhausting and both of us thought you know maybe i'll recycle she thought maybe a show recycle maybe we'll buy and then we reminded each other that this effort this initiative this energy it's what sets the tone for the home the flavor and the smells the aroma this is what will determine the energy of shabbos and aviantiff do we just mail it in do we take the minimal way out do we just cop out do we put in the effort do we put in the effort to cook up something new cook noodle and to cook up new provocative questions for the young tashaba's table to cook up new ideas of how to interest everyone and to cook up and generate a new excitement with new to with new flavors and new aromas of what shabbos is really all about so this cartilage says there are two reasons that we have to get ready on friday number one because it's a result-oriented obligation if we don't get ready then there's nothing to eat only person is making the shabbos yoko and shabbas if you don't prepare for shabbos you're going to go hungry you have nothing to eat on shabbos so we have to make our effort we have to prepare if we want to reap the benefits of the preparation that we made that's number one but he says if it's only results oriented so go buy all the food go have it catered go dip into the freezer go dip into the file cabinet if it's really only about the result you can achieve the result in a circuitous way you can achieve that result without putting in the effort but he says there's the second part the exercise and the effort of getting ready filling the home with those smells and filling our mind with those thoughts on divrei torah challenging ourselves to be creative in every which way that is an exercise in honoring shabbos yantif it gets us ready it prepares us it sets the stage on the table literally and figuratively and for the entire and for the entire home so there's this dual reason that we turn friday into arab shabbos that no matter how exhausted and how much we've done it before and how much we can take that circuitous route and get to the results and do it again without the effort then nevertheless we have to the two reason the reason of the results but even if we can achieve the results the second reason of what it does for us the feeling of the attitude the energy in our home it's up to us it's up to us this beautiful safer museum of the thoughts of yakima very beautiful withdrawing from rav nachman and he talks about that the holiday of success is to renew the sense of love we have for hashem to never get exhausted and to never let it grow old we should never be to the point that we push our children away and we say i need a break from you when does school start again when is camp when is corona over i need a break true each of us need private time and there's nothing wrong with that we shouldn't feel ashamed or guilty for it sometimes we need to withdraw sometimes we need a few moments of private time but never at the expense of the people around us and whom we love feeling that we've grown tired of them we don't grow tired of our children we don't grow tired of our spouse and we shouldn't grow tired ever of the re-bonus shalom ever of their bonus shalom is beautiful safer writes described as mikrako dash mikhai kodesh shahayam tov makhri's kadusa the yantav screams kedusha mikra kodesh it's not that we call it holy we consecrate and sanctify it the yant of itself calls holiness it screams for holiness and the way you achieve that holiness is what we wear and how we dress it's what we talk about what we think about what we read it's the effort we make to prepare to cook to set a table it's the effort we make to come with divrei torah with conversation with questions it's called mikra kodesh because hayantv is kidusa the yantef screams and announces kedusha and the only question is are we listening is our antenna extended are we listening to the youngtif itself scream the kedusha we're out of time already but these second days they scream a whole new kedusha it's a regular attack we say shakhriano tonight when lighting candles we're making kiddush it's a new yant if sukis is over we still sit in the sukkah because suffolk yom we're not sure it's fake of the yoma which day it is here in hutzler's but in israel sukis is over yet serious is a brand new holiday with pizarro six differences between schmidt series and the rest of the sukkahs it's a microcottage it's screaming a whole new kedusha there's no it's not time to grow weary or tired of yantiff of shabbos of cooking of preparing we generate that excitement and the effort that we put in is not deducted it's not reduced it doesn't taken out from what has been allocated for us on kippur and sealed today on hashanah rabbah we should therefore be generous and spend and invest in shabbos and yantif that's investing in our future because the more delicious the more geshmak shabbas and yantiv are for us and for our children the greater their memories and experience of it we are literally investing in the jewish future and for that there is no cost there is no price that doesn't come out of what has been allocated and what has been uh designated for us we should be zoha miker kodesh we should hear yant of screaming out at us and we should respond with love in turn my dearest friends let's turn this friday into heir of shabbos and erev yantif wishing you a good vito stay happy stay healthy and most importantly also stay holy [Music] is [Music]
