Ukraine Zelensky the modern day Macabbi, standing up to tyranny like in days of Chanuka

foreign many communities they give a Kiddush with three different types of kogo but getting to an issue that's relevant to us here this past week there was a historic speech given at the Congress by president zielinski the message of this individual to the United States was don't give in to tyranny it might seem dark it might seem bleak but the message of Hope is so great that it can overcome an outdo all problems and he and his people lived this way for 300 days 10 months where everyone thought that within a matter of a few weeks or so his army his country will be defeated Russia will take over and he single-handedly stood up fought them got the world to support him is getting I believe 1.8 billion in Aid now with one Patriot missile defense system being given to him meanwhile and he told President Biden and the Congress I'm going to be asking you for more yeah I am he didn't mince his words he was honest and open this individual was a comedian but a comedian with a sincere heart the lesson for us especially now that it's Hanukkah where we we used light to outdo the darkness caused not only by the non-jews the enemies but by our own enemies the mission the one the Jews who unfortunately went in the ways of the Greeks and culture I heard this week a great Insight from rabbi chalavachik and the Reba also spoke about this as printed in halik lamb and 13 the 30th volume of the circus that the majority of individuals that made us trouble were not the guardian were they eaten and that's why it was not destruction Corbin it was Tuma every salvation puts into those terms it was spiritual confine contamination impurity making a jug of oil that was used for the light of the menorah and the base Amigos in the Holy Temple impure who came up with that creative idea why didn't they destroy the base of Magnus the way the Romans did during the Roman period no they didn't do that because these were Eden who Dro who led the campaign to create a reform in the traditions of yiddeshkite of Judaism with a small group of people stood up and they said the word of Hashem will continue the word of title will continue we won't give in succumb to the ways of the hellenists the Jewish hellenists zelinski do the same thing we're not going to succumb to the tyrants the Russians who want to obliterate us and literally wipe us off the mat Faith map of the world face of the world Hanukkah is a time when we celebrate Hebrew is associated with the word to educate it's a good reminder for us as we continue the cycle of the Jewish experience throughout the year the importance pure Jewish Education unadulterated with the isms with the Fabrications with the lucrative results of greatness scholarship the little comets aleph the little yamaka on the head the yamakan the head that sitsis worn by a boy the NATO Shabbos kaidus that a girl likes the basics of yiduskite of Judaism Jewish Education it's not sophisticated it's not Missy Avenue it's not Hellenist it's not fancy it's not sophisticated it's not great education the sense of a Harvard a Yale a Colombia it's a little dinky little hater a little Yeshiva a little girl school and it's over there when you give your child a Jewish Education in the most traditional from school whether or not you are on that level but you do it for the benefit of your child trust me you will be a happier parent in the long run there's not even a question in my mind so many people and so many leaders today their parents were not as religious as committed in October observance and mitzvahs as they became and why because at some point in their life they had a Jewish Education Kindle isn't only in the school it's in the house and it begins in the house how do you and your wife behave what do the children see do you say one thing and do otherwise and then expect them to be more religious that's hypocrisy and it's gonna backfire and this is true from the Hasidic world the [ __ ] world the non-observer world and all makes no difference remember what you put in is what you take out so this Hanukkah when we talk about light we talk about illumination I mean talk about standing up to the world let us remember the way a person later in life will stand up and speak his mind in the name of Justice in the name of goodness in the name of Torah the name of Hashem of God it's what he gets what she gets when they're a child when they go and have a good Jewish Education in a truly from institution with the teachers live by what they teach May Hashem help us and God really shine upon us learning from the current events that happened just this week where one individual showed the entire world today in 2022 going into 2023 stand up we stood up then we need to stand up today and let not the enemy the oppressor the tyrants scare you they wanted to Biden wanted to bring him in the beginning of the war already before the War I take him out airlift him hide them put him somewhere and he said no I don't need to run away I need your support I need your ammunition I'm a fighter I just don't let my people fight and I sit in the background I fight with them this is a committed man really committed to what he believes committed to his country comedian as we're saying Yiddish aheen Committee in ahead regardless if he is or he isn't a comedian this is the real world in the real world you have to stand up there's no joking around there comes a point where you have to say it and say it loud everyone should hear you because if you say it loud and you believe in what you say and you and you follow that people see you mean business and people respect you may Hashem help that we in our lives as we continue the process of bringing mashiach into the world for the entire world the entire world will recognize the mashiach not just a little group here a little group there but it will be a global worldly experience of Messianic Taylor true reality it up each and every one of us has a pardon us pardon that by bringing mashiach now doing this commitment with your three kuggles and your seven uh strawberries and 15 Donuts be connected make a good resolution and we'll be saying to March together with Messiah said Kano tears
