Special Series - The Only Exception | Rabbi Eliyohu Meir Schmeltzer

[Music] rat abramsky the chief Rabbi of London used to give aish here every Friday night and many of the attendees were people who were distant from TY MIT but they were interested in becoming closer came par andat was in a quandry the entire week he was strategizing and agonizing How can I properly adequately present the para of the para that permits a person during war to compromise standards of kadha how do I give this over to this crowd and after a week of deep thought he walked into the sheir and he said before we open our kashim I would like to tell you something this par is the Mandate that everything in the Tyra is obligatory but everything in the is doable and accessible and manageable and he proceeded with the par of the tells us tell us the addresses the says just we do not want that a person should transgress and therefore the T permitted the relationship with the asan and said could this possibly be because something is difficult because there's a challenge which is difficult the tah does away with all the different transgressions the tah throws in the towel that means anytime something is difficult we say it's okay everything becomes M because it was hard to do how could that possibly be said that the tah made one exception and this is the proof that there's only one except C and everything else is doable this exception was made for people not just regular but only the that were eligible to go to the army that did not have any AAS in their hands that had no not one I of an a these were the most special people that Grace CL and they were put into a situation of war that they were forced into the battlefield they were forced into a situation where the Yim their their means of warfare was to distract the soldiers to distract them by putting in front of them challenges of Kusha where they were entrapped that they could not leave the battlefield and they could not escape the mat they could not get out of that situation so there the Torah says we I I the Torah I the abish put you in a situation that's not escapable I have to make it endurable and therefore the ter says instead of letting an iser happen we must permit this but no other situation does the T permit it that means the t is giving a message that no matter what the is is no matter what the Mitzvah is it's doable and I I promise you that it's doable asks the following in it says asks the Mir rash how is it possible to give a Commandment that a DA an impoverished poverty stricken person must give a how do you know that through the eternity of cloud strol everybody will be able to afford it how could the T mandate something that may be impossible answers if the T says to do something then the T says I will make sure you're able to do it if a person wants to do it if a person has the will to accomplish it if the person puts in the effort to control himself from transgressing there's an automatic when one says I cannot do it I cannot do it I cannot do it the message of the par of is you could do it you could do it and you will overcome the Nan [Music]
