Shovavim Series - Parshas Tetzaveh: Connecting to Eternity | Rabbi Nachum Binder

[Music] may we are entering the final week of the week of the last seven weeks we embarked together on a journey to try to release ourselves from the bondage of the to try to reconnect ourselves to the to try to be the work on ourselves and ultimately to try to become a a place where the wants the rest this week OFA may be the hardest week for all of us it's the week where not only do we have to do something for this week's a but we have to try to do something that will be able to hold on to throughout the year tell us that that's talking to someone who is looking to grow and looking to and there's a who is going to go up the mountain of but that's not the Pinnacle the real test is me y who will stay on top of the mountain who will be able to take all that we worked on the last seven weeks and be able to integrate that into our daily lives for the rest of our lives to integrate that into the regular days of the year where it's not or it's not or it's not what is the secret and what is the trick to try to take what we worked on and keep it up I want to share with you a beautiful vort from the the ra and this week's and many other as theha that if you look in Trum the tells us about all the C of the mikash how they should be made the measurements what they should be made with but there's one k of the mikdash that in Pas truma we don't discuss it's not discussed until the end of the end of we discussed the building of the m the m which was used for Theus why does the tus separate the from all the other and then tells us a beautiful we know that there's a fundamental difference between the AA of theas and the AA of all the other Mikes the all the require that the person who's doing the AA and the person who the AA is being done for is a sadic the PK tells us abouton a Russia that brings a carbon that carbon is disgusting in the eyes of Hashem when it comes to Theus however kazal tell us that the reason why which is a not nice smelling spice is in the cus is to teach us that even have a part in this even things that don't smell good even Whose actions are not good are also part of the that's what the is telling us over here thatas is different than everything else where everything else needs that it should be done pure it should be done through aad is separated to teach us that Theus encompasses all of clel even those who are not yet on the Madre ofad even those may be in the Madre of Russia but they're all part of theas but why is that what is the difference between the A ofus and the a ofb and I once saw from the a beautiful T and he brings it from and he says that the word carbon means Hisar coming close the word Kus is MIL which is the Aramaic word for being connected being tied up being tied together Aon which is the AA of coming close requires that the individual who comes close is worthy of doing what he's doing of coming close but which is a intimate connection that is there intrinsically is not dependent on the person or what he does it's who he is the fact that he's a yid connects him to the and therefore B are specifically for people who are worthy of it but the connection that is there through Kus that intimate connection between every year and has nothing to do with what we do but it has to do with who we are the fact that we are Yen but then then shares with us a wonderful Insight in the parish at the end of this week's par the puts in also the the why does the T mingle the with Theus because represents the actions ofik and whereas represent all of clel every single y but there's one thing that a y does have to do in order to be to that connection ofus and that is he has to mingle with sikim he has to become part of groups ofen and when that person who his actions himself may be lacking is part of ail is part of a group of friends has connections with with sikim that is what elevates the person that no matter what he does his connection is intimate and he has the my loveus it's been a long and it may be hard to keep up but I think that there's a trick I think that there's a secret if every one of us would make sure that we're connected with we're connected with a a a an neighbor someone that we can just be connected to we can talk to we can learn from we can observe and try toar learn from his actions no matter what time of year it is no matter if it's shave of him or not but if we are going to connect ourselves to groups and to individuals of of then we will never be lost we will always retain that connection let us put a focus on it let us try to think who will I be connected with what group will I belong to who will my friends be will I make sure to have a connection to a r to a to a r well I make sure to learn from and if we do that we will be we'll be able to keep up all that we attained the last 8 weeks and carry it with us and with our families and together with G we will be to that ultimate connection we will be to rejoice and we will be once again to bring and to [Music] be
