Shovavim Series - Episode 2: You Can Fly | Rabbi Nachum Binder

This far tell us that this gula of the days of correspond to the paras because those are the weeks where Israel goes through the gulus comes out of the gullis. us and reaches that level that pinnacle of with as a result of what we purified ourselves in the gulus of mit. I saw in the safer a beautiful safer that brings from the sed and gives an insight into an aspect of gullis. We know that in the Brisbane when theam told about the gulus of the way that told it to him was your children will be strangers in a foreign land and they will make them work and they will pain them they will hurt them and hers points out that these are three different aspects ects of the gullus. There's one part of gullis in itself, the fact that we are strangers. We're not at home. There's another part of gullis that we lose our sovereignty being in someone else's place that we even have to work for them. And then there's the third part of gullis where we lose all strength and the natural cover and dignity of a human being that they could even hurt us. And ash says that this is Mumas in the par of Brisbane. In the par of Brisbane theum tells Abra to take three animals, three behemoths, a ael, a a and an ael, a young calf, an ace, a goat, and an isle. And these are the behemoths that Abrainu cut up and he put and that's where they walked through for the brisbara. These three behemoths represent these three aspects of gullis. An a represents the the of that we can fight for ourselves which was taken away by through an issukim say which means the wealthy people that's the of someone who's not an is the opposite of an eved a dignitary someone who rules over themselves. Someone who's not mish to other people. And an agel, an eagle represents freedom. An eagle runs. An eagle is free. An eagle can do what they want from the time that they're very young. They may be very young, but they're free. They're on their own. Zra these three behemoths were sliced were cut up to teach that that's what's going to happen in g that these three will affect but there was a fourth animal by the there was a bird that Abrainu did not cut because even when we're in a mat of even when we're in a mat of we have the power of a bird to fly and be bigger than our situation. We have that power of a bird. The seeper is never bosser. It's never cut because each and every one of us have the kayak to be bigger than any situation we find ourselves in. I think that's a tremendous lesson for the yehash of him. One of the biggest problems that we all face is we start believing that because of our niness, because of our challenges, because of our situations, we are limited. We can't we can't be bigger. We can't fight. We can't persevere. We don't have that. We don't have that ability. But even before entered that dark of the gave us a message and he told us. No matter where you find yourself, no matter what type of situation, whether it's physical, whether it's spiritual, you can fly. We can fly. We can be bigger than it. And may I rabbi say I think that this has to do with one of the of that is so necessary for us to be good. I saw in a contress that I received recently a contress from and he brings over there a beautiful in a in this week's par whereu turns to the and says didn't listen to How will par listen to me? I am after all and he asked what does it mean that was questioning theam told them that par will listen the told him that he will make sure par listens. Does mishenu doubt the capabilities of the and further he asks why is reiterating the fact that he's in last week in paren told him not to be nervous about that I can take care of anything and he brings from the aut and he tells us a tremendous ama is not just something that we have to believe and something that we have to know and live with. But a muna in itself has a power to bring down hash from the on this world. And our amuna and the strength of our amuna causes the to be on this world the shear of the amuna that we have. And he says that turned to the and he asked them Israel is lacking in their amuna. And if they're lacking in their amuna, then you will not do it. You will not do what you promised to do to par because the way this world works is that our amun is what causes the to be on us. And if doesn't have that amuna properly, how will it happen? And he says in then what do I b with? I'm without the of the I'm just someone who can't talk that's going to par and begging him. But this amuna is not only an amuna in the of the but if the tells us that we have the kus. If the tells us, if the turns to each and every one of us and says, "Mank, you you each and every one of us, no matter how we view ourselves, no matter how bleak our situations seem to be, we can we have that kayak. to fight. We have that kayak to be bigger. We have that kayak to be stronger. Our amuna will bring that hashbah. As we enter the second week of shavim and we're entering shaveim with a mission, a mission to keep on fighting. A mission to keep on growing. A mission to take step by step. We have to have the ammunition of the amuna of we can do it. We will do it because the promised user we will always be able to fly. We should use this week to lead us emit Hashem to greater Madreus, greater Madreus and amaum. Greater Madreus and the in ourselves and through that to feel that to keep on growing.
