kishos has been uh detailing for us uh you know the the problem where you have uh the nothing new nothing that uh perhaps has been created by us or any or anyone uh close to us but uh the the issues where there's fighting among am is when there's people that are fighting for the truth and unfortunately there are people that are fighting for falsehood uh but of course both sides uh believe they're right the people that are fighting for the truth are uh fighting for what's right because they have sources from the to to tell them that they're right and the people that are fighting for the she the fighting for the heresy also believe that they're right and they will even distort the Tora as the Kish told us last week they will even distort the Torah to make it seem as if they have a source for it no different than how the uh Nathan slifkin shim has done uh countless times against many ranim uh Yours Truly included he just uh wrote another article about me about how I'm Hitler's Rabbi and I'm a dangerous person and uh quite frankly one of the things that uh inspired the uh the the uh some of the things of this lecture tonight is the comment the comments that are made on his uh uh on his feed because uh you'll see them and if it wasn't for the knowledge that you know what they're commenting on you would think they're all fighting for the right reason so I'm going to read off some of these comments for you guys to see how easy it is to misunderstand you know uh uh something without really reading the details so of course uh he writes when an influential crazy rabbi tells his violent followers that various people are enemies of the nation who should be killed this is no laughing matter of course if anybody else wrote this you would say yeah you're right a crazy person whether they be Rabbi or not that has you know violent followers uh and they are and they're called enemies then this is not a laughing matter sure yeah especially he says they should be killed absolutely and then you see the comments uh Aviv says wow what a Indescribable monster with lack of spell check uh another rashu uh who likes to come and things say you know light the fire even more with a lot of things I've seen his name many times uh mrai and ruven are really dangerous people what a work of Genius uh Aviv seems like uh on this we agree oh so even among the there's not much agreement apparently uh uh let's see what else do we have uh then you have he's basically saying will no one rid of me of this turbulent priest not really sure what that means but okay fine uh then you have let me know if he's ever planning a trip to the UK another guy says ysf mrai was banned that's one of the reasons these two hate Rabbi mvis it's actually not but you know let's let's just make stuff up as we go along we follow the author's advice you know the person says you know apparently this e saxs she owns apparently she owns a uh uh uh the United Kingdom she owns the entire country I have no idea if she's related to uh uh Rabbi saaks uh uh Shalom uh but uh the uh the What's called the the guy David says that oh that's the reason because R mrai was banned banned from the UK I mean I don't think he was banned from the UK but okay let's just pretend that's the case that's why we hate Rabbi mvis that's why it's not that he wrote a uh book promoting homosexuality and uh Interfaith no has nothing to do with that uh okay Shai uh Shai is Shai is is baffled that why did Nathan slifkin have a tattoo on his forehead of a swastika uh so uh Nathan slifkin is trying to convince his follower that it was only photoshopped uh okay then you have some people like this uh David OSI uh does the uh rabinal Alliance of America have an Ethics code for members and would this be considered a violation this meaning what the article by slifkin like they're they're in essence saying that uh I I have violated a ethical uh uh ethics code of the rabinal alliance of America according to uh to slifkin I violated it okay uh of course Ari Rosman is always there to uh to to plead the case uh of of his uh of his uh um highway robbery uh manipulation of people's uh uh uh privacy and also uh most importantly his financial uh uh agenda where he says in some of the videos yuron describes himself as a member of RA but quickly discloses that the views expressed in the videos are his own uh and don't reflect the organization's reviews uh but uh of course he has a solution um the solution that he has for uh for me is that everybody give him money uh it's a uh in order for him to get somebody in from public school to yes that's that's his agenda in reality you know he takes all the money to his own pocket uh but anyway the uh Ari continues then you have David uh arguing with Ari about how this has nothing to do with the uh with that it's ethics violation blah blah blah uh let's see um then you have uh some people really upset that a lot of people like us uh even though apparently we're cult leaders um then you have rify saying I'm not surprised in the least he appeals to people who want to twist a Torah that places them as all Superior so in essence we're the ones that have a uh Twisted Torah uh then Ari again publicizes his uh his GoFundMe uh uh way to steal people's money and also theira uh then you have uh uh let's see oh David Kerner sent an email to Rabino Alliance you know they want me to be banned from there uh then ai ai said you should file a police complaint for incitement police complaint for incitement fine uh abam is saying the certificate is not an ordination uh it only says that he's a member in good standing an ordination as a specific specific wording which this document lacks uh and then David says but yes that's how all fraudsters operate also just the fact that they recognize him as a rabbi can be used to imply that he is one well actually the Y uh SM that I have over there actually uh is something you guys may want to look into uh so all let's see um Jonathan says I have said that before and so again this kind of incitement to violence requires those aware or targeted by it to open a criminal complaint with law enforcement if this crosses International borders then each country and there should be a takedown request to the host of such content this kind of radicalization is a physical danger to individuals and the community uh I've asked Torah any time to stop including Rabbi mra's video I never heard back surprise surprise uh let's see uh Adam the the people behind to time and kazaka supporters of Rabbi mrai no point in contacting them so he's trying to discourage her because he apparently already tried uh David Waxman is uh praising how we have many people that uh uh appeal to uh to our uh that our information appeals to them our teachings appeal to them uh Levy Welton uhem just contacted the Rabin Alliance thank you for bringing awareness to this this was one of my favorite he claims to be a rabbi so he says just contact the rabinal alliance thank you for bringing awareness to this awareness he brought awareness um then Caroline is asking why people calling him a rabbi and then Jerry alof R slifkin I've learned in life that when someone says they'd kill you uh if they could they usually mean it it should be taken seriously I think this should be reported for your own safety no one ever talked to him nobody even talked no one threatened him but nonetheless he wrote the article in such a fashion that he says that as if we threatened him never talked to the guy in my life but anyway let's see Aviv uh true I would kill you if only I thought I could get away with it would probably cause me to consider some sort of Extraordinary Measures well hold on a second Aviv you're you're you're you're kind of messing up everything because Nathan said that we're the violent ones not not you guys you guys are like the uh you know the nice you know really nice and you know amicable and peaceful not killing people aiv you you're you're you messed it up buddy uh you want to kill people that's not a good thing uh Nathan you got to take care of your student Mitch Mitch Schindler I did write to the ra protesting is member membership all I can say is I would be honored to be listed with the group of people he condemns well Mitch no one knows who you are so there's no reason for us to condemn you uh this is the most F Fame you're ever going to get in your life uh Igor eigor their influence reaches even Germany and some people are fascinated by them I see their CDs in a local kosher store in Berlin some people don't accept any Authority Bes besides theirs which is very dangerous okay eigor uh then of course repeats again mrai and ruven are really dangerous people I don't know why ruven felt it was necessary or appropriate to threaten someone saying it uh if there was no laws you would kill apostates maybe it's time for the ra to remove him they are like uh Sith Lords hiding uh in a plain sight in a role of rabbis so now if you read this with knowledge of what I just told you that it's all written by Nathan slifkin then of course you automatically have a b a bias that if you're watching my lecture and let's say you're a fan you're a student you're a supporter uh then of course you're saying these people are crazy you already have Angry feelings in your heart and uh in essence you have already made your decision but the reality is is that if you didn't know who I was or you didn't know who wrote it or you didn't know what it's written about automatically it would lead to certain conclusion just by simply reading these words those those conclusions are in essence biases and these biases are what the Kish has been trying to teach us about that are in it in themselves extremely dangerous uh for a Jew to have for anybody to have in their decision-making process why because if you have a bias in essence you've already made a decision you know sometimes people tell me uh oh listen what do you think between the fight between uh you know let's say sh and shalom andich shalom say well you know this this the fight between them it was the fight between them is nothing for for me to get involved and neither should you but don't do you really think people would really agree with r Shak oh so you've already made up your mind so why are you asking me you so you see the problem is is that many times people are asking for an opinion not because they're looking to get more information in order to uh conclude themselves but rather because they want to see if you agree with them if we continue LLY agree then we continuously be friends but if we disagree then automatically you are are you know you're the opposite you are the enemy uh you are the mited and so on so it's very important for a person to look at their own look at their own uh cases of whatever they're dealing with whether it's personal issues and you know managing their marriage their their their their parenting uh their their job their employees whatever it is uh or if they're Rabbi or if they're a leader of some kind you have to eliminate all of these biases because these biases of course already lead you to the wrong direction more times than not and one of the Beautiful Things is is that when you are actually a like a fly on the wall or you actually have the Insight of really who's talking and what's going on then you realize that wait what he just said is only because there's a bias and what he just said is only because there's a bias and what he just said is only because of the bias and you realize that in reality these words are not really a compilation of thoughts but rather these are an expression of emotions which are two completely different things so of course naan SLI uh is a heretic not according to just us but according to whether it beash and many many other gim that have called him a heretic that have called his books heretical and and forbidden to be sold unfortunately this just made his books more popular among the the people that seek heresy but nonetheless at least the warning came out there and there not really a question of whether he's a heretic or not the question is why does he still have an audience and the answer is because there are other people that look for that type of heresy but yet the Heretics preach their heresy as if it's true and with a lot of passion and Zeal and and and they preach to a certain type of audience that yearns for it that sees their lies as true because in reality if a single person from his audience actually did the investigation required to make a real decision they would know that all I did was State something that's in the Torah I didn't State anything new I stated something that's simply a statement in the Torah and quite frankly it had nothing to do with him it had to do with somebody completely different at a different event which is a different that I already knew about before I showed up at an event that he likes to come to different rabinal events and cause a problem and to confuse the rabbis and confuse the audience and we actually caught it on camera that he did catch one of the uh one of the guys that attended that lecture and got his phone number and asked him to call him and to uh uh to discuss uh certain things uh with him of course his whole agenda is to preach heresy like a Christian Missionary or or an atheist or literally a spirit ual murderer this guy goes to lectures in order to trap people in order to trap even the rabbis and confuse them and make them look bad and of course he wasn't playing with a uh uh the the typical type of uh speaker uh that he's used to so when we fought back and of course made a Kem to show him that he doesn't know anything he's not only a fool but also a a person that we uh you know made him feel so uncomfortable that he showed himself his way out but one of the things that we had to make sure that the audience realizes is what is the torah's opinion of such a person because that is what dictated our actions it wasn't an emotional a response it wasn't a response that came because of anger or be came because I wanted to uh uh to make him feel bad it was literally a uh a response that's in accordance with the was what you're supposed to do and in fact if we were at the time of the saned we would be able to do more which is what I told the audience which is if if it was allowed meaning if and I expressed it later on if we were at the time of the sanedrin this person would be killed if I was allowed to kill him I would kill him meaning I would be happy to be to have the Merit to be on such a Sedin to be part of a sanedrin uh and and actually execute such a person that's causing so many people to abandon God to abandon Torah to abandon the truth because that's what wants in the world so saying that statement is not a radicalization it's not an independent statement it's simply stating what the Torah says if you read the you read this week talks about how a person that's a sinner gets a death penalty and the same thing last week and the same thing last week and almost almost every par in the talks about death penalties either that were executed or could be executed or will be executed or some type of heavenly death penalty or rabinal death penalty the point is that the Torah is full of these types of statements because means business and he wants us to know that he means business not because he wants us to die Shalom and not because he wants to kill us but rather because fear is the most uh uh uh motivating emotion that a human being has that's how created a person he instilled into each one of us fear of everything and as says in the in his letters and blazel uh uh comments on it where a a person a human being has a natural fear of almost everything almost everything whether it's fear of B fear of poverty fear of loneliness uh fear of how people view him or her uh fear of of heights fear of space too much too little uh fear of uh you know all types of different things the only fear that does not come naturally to a person is fear of the almighty that fear which is the only fear that is actually permissible and quite frankly the only uh fear that is obligatory in a person is something that a person has to work on says so the fear of the Almighty which is one of the 63 that we have in the Tor is something that a person has to work on it's not something that you have naturally and that is the most important fear but fear of everything else comes to many people naturally some people more some people less some people have uh a uh psychological uh issues to the point where their fear turns into a phobia which is a completely uh different level of fear it's not a fear that it's a fear that gets out of control put put it that way uh and uh the point being is is that this fear that Hashem instilled into mankind is necessary it's necessary for us to function it's necessary for us to know the right from wrong it's necessary for us to operate in the world because if we were really truly not afraid of everything or anything then quite frankly the world will turn into a Sodom and gomorah uh you know world of the time of Noah and worse and worse and this is in essence what happened at those times where decided that the mankind lost their right to live when they literally had no fear of anything they didn't fear God and they didn't fear each other they stole from each other out in the open they raped each other's wives they uh committed every type of uh immoral crime known to man in the open in privacy uh they did literally everything possible that simply uh they wanted to anything that they yearned to do any desire that they had and they had no fear and says that created this world only for the sake of your fear meaning that their actions were antithetical to the purpose of the world he created the world so you fear Him and when a person does not fear hasem in essence they are losing their right to exist so made us fear everything out there naturally because it's necessary for us to function not just as righteous Jews or righteous noahides but simply as decent human beings you have to fear Authority or else you're simply going to take advantage of everybody you have to fear loneliness or else you're going to commit adultery or all types of other disgust crimes against humanity you have to fear uh the the law else you're going to steal from people you have to fear uh you know the uh health issues or else you're going to eat drink and take and intake every type of bad thing for you just for the sake of a good feeling and of course unfortunately people that don't have this fear or don't have the wisdom to fear end up consuming a lot of drugs and a lot of alcohol a lot of bad things for them only to find out later on that uh had they been uh a little bit more afraid than they were then they wouldn't have got into this uh addiction of drugs or money or uh uh all types of uh immoral things uh alcohol and so on so the point being is is that fear is what drives us a person that is in a hurry to go to an appointment and needs to get there and wants to get there and has a car that is able to get there really really fast is not going to do it because they're afraid of getting pulled over by police and getting a ticket so they're going to drive the speed limit perhaps a little more a little less but they're not going to drive as as fast as they truly desire to as fast as they feel they need to they're afraid for their life they're afraid for their license they're afraid for their pocket this is a necessary fear not just for them but also for the society around them because if everybody drove as if there's no speed limit and there's no risk then what would happen is that there would be a lot more accident a lot more death a lot more uh injuries and unfortunately a lot more problems to mankind so you have the traffic laws in order to protect ourselves from ourselves and also from each other the same goes with everything else in life if you go to a company and you have a business or you have a job each company has some type of written law uh some type of compliance manual some type of written manual some type of oral manual every company has it the bigger the the the more they have there's a spoken law and there's an unspoken law sometimes the unspoken law is unspoken until it's exposed and sometimes the unspoken law is spoken all the time you know hence the uh the situations that's happening out there in the media in these days where you have all of these filthy uh sexual predators that take advantage of of of people that are inferior to them in position and power whether it be a secretary or a uh an extra on a set or or somebody that's a uh you know a lower position looking up to uh uh to to the bigger people to get up the corporate ladder or the Hollywood ladder you know these people get taken advantage of all the time not just taking advantage of by getting underpaid get take advantage of by being molested being raped being uh taken advantage of in a lot of different ways and everyone knows it's wrong and everyone knows it's happening but this unspoken law is is simply quieted why because number one some people also want to do it other people are afraid to get in trouble and third is some people just simply don't care for anything but themselves but then one day somebody does get the courage to expose it andh allows it to become a very big thing and then you see the CEO quits all of a sudden and this one quits and that one gets fired well the truth is you all knew was was happening the whole time and it wasn't just last week or last month or last year it's been happening for years in some cases for decades and everyone knew it was wrong the whole time how come all of a sudden you fired him now why didn't you fire him before you paid him $10 million last year or $20 million or $15 million how come you didn't pay him throughout all of that other time ah because the oral law that you had was simply a left orally so long as you had a bias a bias an agenda where listen he's doing it to them not to me and I benefit enough from him not to care about this other person and so on and so forth everyone has a certain bias the truth is the only law the only law that's that's never biased the only law that's always true is the law of but of course we have to realize that if we are going to stay true to the law we have to realize that the law is is always the same it's not something that is going to change just because we don't like it or just because we disagree with it so many times you'll read things or you hear things in the Torah that perhaps are opposite of the way you're living your life if you are a person of truth then you'll say listen I get it this is the opposite of what I was doing and that means if I don't change I will get punished because that's how runs the world he gave us a system of reward and Punishment if we do what he says he gives us a reward if he if we do against what he said we get a punishment simple not just in this world but also in the next world and the punishment in the next world is much much more severe anyone that does not believe in reward and punishment is considered a heretic who doesn't believe in a Torah no different than an atheist but the point being is is that when a person sees that statement whether it be in a book or it be in a lecture or whatever it is he sees that she sees that and it's contrary to what they believe it's contrary to what they're doing if they're a person of Truth they'll simply say listen I'm wrong Hashem is right uh I have to decide whether my desire for this thing my you know is is simply uh to a point where I care less about the eventual punishment but the truth is that people of falsehood don't do that what do they do they do simply what s does they do what the rest of the Heretics do and they start manipulating the truth in order to fit their desires and hence the reason of why he will take a statement that was told about somebody else it would also applies to him don't get me wrong and he'll quote me for that and it's okay that he does but the reality is that statement had nothing to do with him it had to do with somebody else that was doing something that the Torah says would warrant a death penalty at the time of the sanedrin that's all it is it's no different than reading this week's where it says that a Shabbat someone a desecrate Shabbat is a gets a death penalty and it's not just a death penalty by God we find out later on in the tah that it's actually a death penalty in the worst type of stoning now again the Heretics are going to say yes but we don't implement this anymore you're right but that doesn't actually invalidate the death penalty as thear actually already discussed those people that say oh since we don't do it it doesn't apply wrong thear says that even though death penalties were removed from is you know since the time the San was was uh was uh the destruction of the bet mikdash the sanin was no longer already executing death penalties for about four decades before the destruction of the bet mikdash so but since did the dismemberment of the sanedrin there was no more uh death penalties by men but the death penalties are still 100% valid by the hand of a meaning that a still exe executes all death penalties that he decreed in the Torah if it's stoning then thear says it's like a bull uh running over somebody or the person falling in from a building whether you want to consider a car accident or plane crash or any type of uh uh events similar to stoning that's what a uh death penalty is that's a Heavenly death penalty uh sometimes you'll have a uh burning by fire sometimes you'll have choking all different types of death happens in the world and anyone that did a little bit of research on this particular uh Topic in the past you'll see that the average person according to the census I reviewed of of the US uh death uh uh uh uh death rate versus birth rate although the average uh lifetime is a little bit over 70 years old I think it's 72 73 years old something around that range the reality is is that it's not that the average person lives 72 73 years because the vast majority of people die well before that well before that why don't they why did they still consider the average uh uh 72 73 years that's if somebody lives their full life but the vast majority of people die a Unexpected death car accidents disease uh and on and on and on and the says there are over 900 ways that a kills people so the point being is that the vast majority of people never reach this un you know this 70 yearold plus uh uh uh lifetime many of them die much earlier than that anyone that lives long enough knows that some of his high school buddies died in high school or died uh they have uh you know family members that died as children or they have other family members or friends that died as uh young in young enough to be in their late teens early 20s or 30s and 40s and every everybody knows somebody that died young and you're not alone many people in fact the majority of people die Young die in Unexpected death why because is the one that's running the world not your scientist not your Heretics not the people that choose to not believe but himself he's the one running it and there's no such thing as a person getting hurt on their finger needless to say dying without there being a reason for it there's always a reason for it the says that a person does not get pricked on their finger without there being a bed that designate allowing such a thing to happen allowing such a thing to happen pasing that this is what will happen so in essence although there isn't a sanedrin in this world that is operating functioning like it did a couple of thousand years ago aadh still runs the world the same way and he simply decides to execute whenever he wishes just because somebody sins doesn't mean that hm is going to execute right away he wants people to have free choice he wants people to have the ability to do Chua to change that he did allowing people like myself that weren't born into a religious family that weren't born into a Torah observant family that's keeping Shabbat uh you know so he allowed me to do Chua of course I have to go through my own trials and tribulations until I did but the point being is that hasem knows what he's doing but if if wanted or wants he could execute whatever he wants it's his world it's his world to run and all of those people that simply think that just because aadh is not killing off people by the zillions uh you know in on a daily basis that means that it's no longer applicable that just means you're an ignorant arrogant fool that's all it means simply just that's that's that's all it means but of course people like slifkin will do whatever they can to preach their heresy in such a fashion that it seems so true to the fans to the supporters to the followers that they are going to say o how could they be such a rabbi or such a person named youron ruen uh that is preaching hatred and preaching to kill people had you actually watched the video and looked up the sources that I quoted and decided to believe the word of God then you would realize I'm not doing anything new at all in fact what you're doing is new what I said what I'm doing is the same thing that's been done for 3,300 years since the time of Matan that's what I'm doing what you're doing which is in essence saying that death penalty is simply uh not null and void it's no longer applicable everybody's uh is perfect and can do whatever they want and whatever a mumbo jumbo you you think you're uh uh you're right about that's what's new that's the new religion that you're all creating but yet still have the audacity to call it Judaism now we fight this tooth and nail we fight uh also the uh the the people that invite missionaries we fight other forms of heresy where people that say that God needs us or people that are against the the mystical aspects of Judaism which also happens to be uh Nathan slifkin and his friends saying that the rambam hated the uh the uh the mysticism and didn't believe in it apparently they don't read Because or they read what they want to read and they don't read the rest because if you simply look at the what the rambam actually wrote you wouldn't have to spend that much time to realize that the rambam not only believed but he actually loved the cabala and in the commentary to the mishna the beginning of his commentary to the ENT M he talks about how the subject of cabala the subject of a is only for smart people he actually says this it's only for smart people why because people that are not smart are not going to believe it and they're not going to know how to use the mystical aspects of Judaism the aot the stories they're going to misinterpret them and actually uh fall because of it so it's specifically meant for smart people go ahead you don't have to take my word for it go open commentary of the rambam on the mishna the beginning you'll see within perhaps the first 50 60 Pages you'll see or depending if you have a translation or not could be first 20 Pages uh you'll you'll see how the rambam himself is talking about cabala talking about mysticism how it's not only something extraordinary but rather it's something that is specifically for smart people smart people not Heretics not people that are looking for excuses to justify their sins but smart people now if a person has a bias where they're looking to Simply Express their agenda then regardless on which side they're in whether they're on the side of the heretic or they're on the side of at least trying to preach the truth either way they're a problem why because if you have a Personal Agenda if you have a Personal Agenda if your agenda is not for the sake of but rather a Personal Agenda you're looking to make more money you're looking to become more famous you're looking to uh bring a new idea to the world or whatever you know prideful uh uh objective you have that's a problem that's a very de dear problem why because it distorts it distorts the nature of your entire arguments altogether and we'll see how now the Kish told us in the first couple of paragraphs of this section section 30 how the spiritual disease that the evil inclination uses in order to make people lose theira the spiritual disease of having people lose their faith in theim having people lose the faith in the sages that spiritual disease it all begins with somebody leading them to believe that this that this sage has a bias saying that a has a bias is worse than saying any curse word on this saying that a has any agenda personal agenda is worse than anything else you can do to him because it's literally taking his entire life and saying that the whole thing is a lie now of course to the person saying it it doesn't seem like that it says what everybody has an agenda thereby be is the problem there is the problem you think he's like everybody the second you think he's like everybody you have made him the opposite of what he is you made him the opposite of what he is you're going to say yeah no I don't think that the the the rambam is like everybody else I just think you are like everybody else whatever Rabbi you're making fun of whether it be myself or anybody else I just think you are that's the problem the second that you take any today that's a real that has and you simply say that they are a liar a manipulator because they have a Personal Agenda because they want to make more money because because they want they they want to uh uh you know become more famous because of whatever they they have an agenda that is in essence the worst possible thing that you can do to that person because you're are discrediting the premise of everything that they live for now of course if you're right then that person was never to begin with was never a real person with to begin with was never a righteous person to begin with but if you're wrong that comment inherits the person that said it Gom that is unfortunately a very very long sentence a a a sentence that is unfortunately for that person a sentence that is worse than they could ever imagine a sentence that makes the Holocaust look like a kindergarten you know uh play uh uh uh kindergarten uh sand castle of some kind or or one of those uh places where the kids play with the sand the the sentence that a person gets for for simp simply taking a taking a kosher Jew taking a person that is uh for all intents and purposes has and seeing that they're doing it because they have an agenda you're suspecting a kosher person you have a very serious problem now even more so if that person has the ability the knowhow and actually executes those abilities and know house to help people do Chua and you question that person you my dear friend are an enemy of God and I promise you you don't want to be an enemy of God now Kish is going to elaborate but first we have to get a recap of what he already said there is another disease of the spirit that the evil inclination uses to keep the belief in the sages the from entering people's heart and that is the fickle scale of personal interest the term of bias the disciple is obligated to believe that there's no personal interest powerful enough to Incline the heart of a scholar to pervert Justice for the goal of the Torah scholar is to bring Merit to his soul and to stain his soul with sin would hurt him far more than any physical blow so how could he for money or for desire to please someone how could he possibly harm his soul by perverting Justice in addition to this the quality of Truth is the most basic quality of the sage and even the slightest untruth is alien to him such an attitude towards the scholars is that of the mass of honest men who follow the Torah Scholars and learn from them what he's saying is is that questioning the scholars is not something that the mass do but rather the small groups of in of individuals or or people but not the masses but the evil inclination can undermine this trust meaning the trust that the majority of righteous Jews have the evil inclination can undermine distrust by entrapping those who tend toward its convoluted reasoning and offering them a complete Theory supposedly drawn from the gar that person interest has definitive power for that petty and the great alike even the wisest pre to it as are the and the righteous the people that like to say that have a bias whether it be a A rki or Rad or a nobody like myself to say oh you have bias everybody has bias what are you even uh pretending not to have have a bias they have bias everybody has a bias this is the Satan himself this is the Satan himself at its worst why because according to this Theory says the K The Scholar who gives in to personal interest has nothing to be ashamed of for such as human nature but those who claim so do not know that according to this assumption the entire generation is thereby orphaned and there could be no judge and no leaders for even if a person will recognize the immense wisdom of the wise he will not feel obligated to obey him as he will find some reason to claim that the Scholar's decision was swayed by personal interest if the ideas of the slifkin of the world that say that there is no more this is made by the this is nonsense this is a uh there is no everybody's subject to bias everybody's the same we all put our pants on one leg at a time you're just idolizing people and it's even against the tah to do such a thing and so on and so forth in essence what they're doing is that they're taking all leadership all leadership whether it be leadership the Giants of the generation the the rais and the and the and the r and and evenu they're taking all of them they're put to the side even more so they're also taking the small local leaders your local Rabbi your local M your local Kash Authority the the the person that is overseeing that the synagogue is clean the the gab of the they're also put to the side why they have an agenda whatever they're doing they're they have an agenda everybody has an agenda and even more so they're taking the authority of the law the law of the land whether it be police or be government or anything else why because in essence you're saying that everybody has an agenda in the Torah World which is in essence supposed to be the elite the ones that are supposed to be the the divinely inspired by more than anybody else and if they're like everybody else needless to say everybody else is the same or less than them according to that opinion and therefore this becomes an orphan Society with no leadership whatsoever and everyone can do whatever they want and doesn't have to listen to anybody cuz why would anybody like a slifkin listen to anybody unless that person already agrees with what slifkin or somebody like him believes meaning unless you agree with me I'm not going to listen this is Mayhem this is the time of Noah this is Sodom and gamorra with some pictures this is what it is that's what they preach the Lefty liberal side the anti Tor side the heretical side the united with everybody like everybody so long as they agree with me side those people simply what they're trying to build is another Tower of Babel as the as the Tora says not that they are building a building to make themselves a name they're all concentrated on making themselves a name where they want to be famous they want to be popular they want everybody else but with the with the preach the speech that everybody else is biased yet they never reflect on themselves while they preach that everybody else is biased everybody else is bought and sold everybody else is bad nobody else knows anything they never say that about themselves though if you notice they themselves are just looking to go higher and higher and they're looking to be perceived this higher as higher no different than the Communist no different than the Hitlers of the world no different than the worst uh authoritarian uh uh Psychopaths that ever lived that is the mentality the the people like Stalin or Hitler or or Nikolai all of these these people were very clever people they were not stupid people quite the opposite they were very very clever people that were able to manipulate other people's emotions in such a fashion that they would make you think that their idea is your idea that you want what they want and what they want is for your benefit this is an Essence what all of these monsters did until they got the position of they wanted and they were able to annihilate anyone that got in their way but of course they're going to say yeah but the the good guys the ones that believe in a Torah they're the ones that are preaching death penalty no we're teaching what the Torah says Tor says death penalty but we also say we can't execute it because T forbids us from executing it simply because we don't have a s had we had a s meaning that had is still had the power of to in to to instill this his law into the world we would not only be allowed we would be forced to do it we'd be forced to do it if allows if a enables we have to do it but since removed this from the world there's nothing for us to do but that doesn't mean that it's null and void that just simply means that he himself decided to remove this from the world until further notice which is of course mashia comes but even then there's not going to be death penalties simply because people already be annihilated well before that at the time of mashia with goog and so on but the point being is is that the the love the love of a is still executed but simply by him simply by him he has bed that are in shim that are going to in essence practice the what the bed what the saned used to do in this world and they execute the order and of course in a mystical magical uh whatever uh uh Supernatural way you want to call it a way that runs his world but nonetheless all of that is still executed in this world it's just that we as human beings here as Jews here are not allowed to do it and by teaching it what we're teaching is that this is the law and it's simply handled by someone else simple this is the law it's simply handled by somebody else just like you teach little kids the even though none of them is a sometimes not a single one of the kids is a and it will never bring aan even if they live to see they would never actually be the one that's doing all of these different things in theot why because you learn this particular part of the Torah and you also learn that somebody else's does certain things but when you learn learn it it's as if you do it either way when people take the truth and manipulate it to fit their own agenda it also turns the truth into a lie and that's why even sometimes you'll have people that have the right intentions but that intention is unfortunately has a little bit of Personal Agenda personal bias personal a uh uh uh you know just something that's a selfish in whatever way or another unfortunately that that filth that filth ruins the truth sometimes more sometimes less but nonetheless it's not 100% true anymore so here we see that the K said that there are going to be some people that have parts of the truth but they tend to convolute the truth they use convoluted reasoning and those people are unfortunately some of the people that you can't trust those people are some of the people that tend to be very dangerous to society because they preach something that is partly true with an ultimate purpose of a lie or the ultimate goal of of a lie in order to fit their agenda they figure that since they have some truth in it the rest of it will work itself out if you will so the evil inclination can undermine this trust by entrapping those who tend to its convoluted reasoning and offering them a complete Theory supposedly drawn from the gar of course is word of words of truth that personal interest has definitive power for the petty and the great alike even the wises are prey to it and and the righteous as well so in essence by this this whole reasoning of saying that everybody's the same the righteous the the everybody's the same they're all bias so if you're biased that you know you're just simply normal so why are you even uh claiming not to be biased it's interesting that they never point the fingers at themselves according to this Theory The Scholar who gives in to personal interest has nothing to be ashamed of for such as human nature but those who claim so do not know that according to this assumption the entire generation is thereby orphaned and there could be no judges and no leaders for even if a person will recognize the immense wisdom of the wise he will not feel obligated to obey him as he will find some reason to claim that the Scholar's decision was swayed by personal interest this also means that he won't listen to anyone else either not the law not police not the judge uh not the judge of to the and not the judge of the land he'll just simply do whatever he wants whenever he wants because he think thinks that everybody is out there to to be against him and for their own interest because they're all humans and they're all the same this can be claimed by anyone who is not satisfied with the Scholar's decision and so the generation begins to judge its judges and anyone can do as he pleases in any important case clever ones will whisper to one another for some personal interest that caused the sage sometimes the greatest sage in a generation to judge wrongly in such a case the city's atmosphere and sometimes the entire country's atmosphere becomes permeated with malicious words disputes and feuds and the source of it all is lack of faith in Torah Scholars up to here is where we read to up to now where you see that in essence what ends up happening is that you sometimes will have groups of people they congregate in a synagogue they congregate in Thea in a bet midash in a restaurant and today of course you have congregate on the internet Facebook groups WhatsApp groups and so on and so forth and they congregate and unfortunately many times these congregations so-called representing Unity create the most amount of animosity instead create the most amount of Separation instead why because as soon as somebody expresses an idea an idea that is contrary to what the majority of people believe to be true now it's not like if you have a one-on-one conversation why because if you have a one-on-one conversation you say a he says b you say a he says b you say a he says b you start bringing each other facts a has this fact this fact this fact this fact he says yeah but B has this fact this fact this fact this is in essence a debate a normal debate that can lead to good things it could lead to both of you seeing the truth that may not even be a or b a whole new truth that both of you were unaware of but needed to both aspects in order to arrive at that truth or you can see that the other guy is right or that you are right and you have more supporting uh uh uh um uh evidence now that you are right indeed but when you have a group then unfortunately it doesn't turn out that way why because one person says the information the other guy says no immediately there's always somebody out there says yeah but he knows more than you like something that has no intellectual value whatsoever simply taking a personal attack at the other person yeah but he's religious longer than you what does that have to do with what he said he said that they someone desecrate Shabbat gets a death penalty from heaven now like what what what does that have to do with with anything of him being religious not religious he's simply quoting the rambam Shabbat chter 30 number 15 he also says that they get is considered an idol worshiper like what does that have to do with religiosity if he's longer shorter what difference does it make yeah but but but he's a rabbi okay but what does it have to do with anything yeah but this but that but there's always one person and then as soon as that one person feels free to jump into the to the uh discussion there has to be a few other minions to jump in also and then all of a sudden the person that's defending whether they're defending the truth or defending the LIE feels attacked and thereby can no longer defend whatever they believe is true in a normal fashion why cuz now it's a war so what do they do they also bring they also bring or sometimes of course those other people bring themselves to fight the other side and the whole thing becomes just simply people insulting each other yeah but you're stupid yeah but you're ugly yeah but you're and you guys don't eat this and you guys don't eat that and you guys this and didn't you get divorced 15 times and didn't your wife this and what does it have to do with anything nothing all it has to do is that the Satan is dancing now of course people will think oh yeah but it's Torah at least they're discussing Torah this is not Torah this is tor this is this is this is all of the sins Under the Sun it has nothing to do with Torah why because you're going at it with a bias what is that bias you want to win that's the bias and unfortunately the addiction to win is perhaps one of the most disastrous one of the most horrific one of the most addictive desires that a person could have in a Torah World needless to say otherwise desire to win meaning that all you're doing now is you're preaching whatever you preach because you want to win not because you care about the truth but simply because you want to prove to the other guy or the other girl that you're right and they're wrong that my friend is a bias it's a very big bias and it's a bias that takes whatever truth you've supposedly had and turns it into turns it into not so true turns it into truth with a bias that's kind of ugly truth and of course people will say yeah but the truth H sometimes it doesn't have to even if it's opposite of what they believe you don't have to make it painful you could say whatever you say and they can choose whether they're hurt by it or not but of course if you call them stupid and if you make fun of them personally then of course it's going to hurt and why do you think that they're going to be more receptive you know since you've called them stupid why do you think that will help you see there's there's a very big difference between fighting for the truth versus fighting for you to be right fighting for the truth means that you are trying to show people the truth by showing them what the LIE looks like warning them of the LIE showing and and exposing the lie in its ugliest possible fashion to make you disgusted from the lie so you're not enticed to go to the lie because if you show the LIE the way the show the lie you may end up going to the LIE you may end up wanting to go to the lie because the LIE looks delicious looks beautiful you want to go there no so you have to not only show what the LIE is you have to show how ugly the LIE is how risky it is how horrific it is you have to show it in all of its ugly colors show all the Thorns coming out of it and then show the truth the beauty of the truth the wisdom of the truth the purity of the truth why because you care number one for the honor of in his truth number two for people to take the truth and absorb it into their lives so they can actually honor Hashem even more and live better lives for themselves not because you want people to go and fight you not because you want people to say oh wow you're smarter than me oh wow you're great no it's all because you want to help you want to help magnify K's name you want to be a vessel to magn ify sanctify kosh's name even higher that's your whole purpose and because aadh loves his children loves his creation you want that creation to also love AEM why because if they reciprocate that love to the best of their capabilities then they'll be included in the reward that aadh wants to give them anyway but if you're only looking to sanctify your own name then guess what you're not even going to get reward for anything that you're doing in fact you're probably going to get punished as a spiritual murderer yourself that preach the truth and that is one of the things that people don't realize when you start making things personal he's ugly he's stupid he comes from here she comes from there you have ruined the truth no less than the Liars do on a regular basis no less this is a bias it's an addiction to be to want it to be right to want to win it's a bias that of superiority complex it's a bias of a some type of mentality that you can't lose that you cannot afford to to to be wrong it's not a bias for the truth why because if you're looking for the truth that means that you're constantly working at it but you're also open you're also open to seeing if it's possible that what you think is true may be wrong this is why all are called they're called wise students not just wise but wise students wise students because if you are looking for the truth of Hashem you have to be student always you always always have to yearn for more go for more and sometimes you'll even see some of the greatest sages that ever lived write a and later on change that say no there's new information that came to my knowledge after I P in this that changes everything and therefore I was wrong and the publicly right and admit that they made a mistake with no shame with no uh embarrassment in fact they're apologetic that they perhaps steered people wrong but they're happy to to have the truth because they're not addicted to winning they're not fighting to win they're fighting to save people they're fighting to sanctify kosh's name and unfortunately many times the the line between between fighting for the truth and fight fighting for yourself and your own ego is very thin very easily a person could become addicted to just simply fighting with everybody and anybody just because they like the feeling of winning and they know they have the winning hand why because they have the Torah they have Al they have what it says they have an open book so they know what the rambam says they know what Rashi says they know what everybody says they know it's in front of them so it doesn't really take a genius to say listen uh I have the winning hand you're wrong I'm right why cuz they have the words of the sages but unfortunately even no you don't have to search for the truth cuz you already have it in your hand you're still fighting a losing battle why you fighting a losing battle because you're not fighting for that truth that the rambam pined ored or that himself bin then the Tora itself no you're not fighting for that you're just fighting to win you have a winning hand you have two aces in your hand and you're just telling the guy listen you're an idiot for even playing with me and even thinking you're going to win and the guy wants to fight you not because he thinks he has a strong truth but just because you're making fun of him just because you're taunting him and that's no different than what the Gladiators did in the Coliseum whether it's the Coliseum of couple thousand years ago and the Romans and the Greeks or the Coliseum of today of people fighting a football game calling it an event which unfortunately many Jews including rabbis are attending and watching as if it's a big deal in Jewish World you and your ego and your addiction to Winning is taking the winning hand taking the truth of the Torah and smearing it with filth spiritual filth you created with your own hands filth full of arrogance filth full of an agenda a bias not a bias that you're going to be richer because of it not a bias that you're going to be smarter because of it not a bias that you're going to be even more famous because of it but a bias for that little bit of feeling where you know you're going to win that debate that's not a good thing why you've taken the truth and you ruined it and this is been you see if your goal in teaching in Sharing Torah is not for the sake of helping people it's best you don't do anything because you're simply going to create more damage than you are going to help this is why the Kish continues here and elaborates further and says the basis for so such false notion can be found in page 18b where it says that a king and a a high priest are not appointed to the court that makes a decision regarding a leap year the king is not appointed because of a um salary and the high priest the Coen G is not appointed because of the cold what does this mean thear is trying to teach us that bias is not a new thing bias in fact is something that is the Torah warns about already from the beginning from mat from M when instituted the laws he didn't just Institute the law of the Common Man he also instituted the laws of the qu Gul the high priest he also instituted the law of the king in ined the law of the sanedrin of how to run a Jewish Court he also instituted the law of the leapers what to do how to do when to do why because we as Jews we don't have a traditional year like the Gentiles where some go by the sun which is a uh a year of 365 days or some go by the moon 354 days we have a unique calendar a Jewish calendar is a unique calendar where we know that there's an 11-day difference between the uh calendar of the sun calendar of the moon and therefore every uh every uh two and a half years almost three years approximately uh you have a uh a difference of a month a difference of a month in the actual date meaning that if your uh birthday is let's say January 1st uh 1990 okay you were born January 1st 1990 now you are celebrating let's say now you just celebrated your uh 32nd birthday right 32nd birthday January 1st 2022 you celebrate your 32nd birthday and you feel oh my birthday happy birthday to me happy birthday to me really the only two people that celebrate that her birthday in the Tora is but nonetheless you celebrate your birthday according to the gorian calendar because you were born on January 1st 1990 and January 1st just passed a little over a month ago truth be told it's not really a birthday it's not really a birthday why because since the the way the calendar works the uh there's an actual month difference every few years that January 1st of 32 years ago is not exactly 32 years to January 1st of today now of course the gim don't care about this they have their calendars they have have their system and they care less about it but us Jews we care why do we care because the Torah obligates us to care because we have certain laws that depend on specific and precise timing where the Torah says that there are four seasons in the year and PES has to be a holiday that is celebrated in naiv in the in the spring it has to be it cannot be a holiday that celebr ated in any other time of the year now you would say oh what's the big deal well the big deal is if the Jews use the gorian calendar that would not be possible because every few years pesak would fall in a different season and it would be a Torah violation in fact the days of yum Kip that we celebrate today where we know for a fact this is the day to fast the times we would fast if we use the gorian calendar would be simply regular days and the day we're supposed to fast we would not be fasting and thereby the entire nation would get a we would eat on P thinking that it's a regular day and on P eat mat thinking we're doing aah but in reality doing nothing we'd be celebrating as if this is the Judgment day but in reality just the regular day and the Judgment Day we be going and hanging out and working and doing whatever we're not allowed to do during that day why because the Jewish calendar is very precise it has to be calculated in a specific fashion and it's critical for us to have a leap year a leap year that's calculated according to the sages it's part of the uh uh what we had even since the time ofu where if you look at the it talks about how in the past the uh the way they would have different people that would identify when's the new month these people would station themselves on mountains the first person that would see the moon would then report it they uh they would come to the bedin they would question them how did the moon look like and as soon as they confirm that they really saw the new moon then they would declare it be a a month and then they would declare certain times would have to be they would have to add a month so now what is all of the what does it have to do with the high priest and the King why can't the king do this I mean the king king is supposed to be very righteous the Torah commands us that a king a Jewish King has to have a on him at all times he has to walk around with a Torah scroll at all times he asked why to teach him that's what the Torah says he has to have a Torah scroll with him at all times so he can learn from it and have fear of Heaven at all times in essence a Jewish King is supposed to be the most righteous person of the land so think King David King Solomon righteous people that's what a Jewish King is supposed to be like on the other hand you have the is that's the last week we learned about and his sons and how decided to make them the the special part of that have even a unique DNA a unique DNA that's been verified by scientists that real Kim have a unique part of their DNA different than the rest of the the the species of the world unique DNA so these Kim are special people in fact the levy tribe was the was the only tribe that were not slaves in Egypt because they dedicated themselves to learning tah and therefore decreed that they would not become slaves like the rest of Amel this is what Yeshua benun this is what Yeshua Bon used as his way to learn Torah even before mosu got the Tor as a little kid the mid says that Yeshua Bon after working and doing whatever he can as a little kid as a slave CU he was from the uh he wasn't from the tribe of Levi so he would go after a long day unlike the rest of his friends and kids of his age that would sleep would play would do whatever it is that they had time to do Yeshua would sneak out of his house and go to the place of the leim why to go hear words of Torah one day there was an announcement that they that Moshe Moshe came back the brother of a of Aon the brother ofon that he is the messenger that sent he's the mhia that's going to bring Salvation to the people and little Yeshua benon decided in that moment he's going to be next to this m 24 hours a day as a little kid and he went wherever mosu went why he wanted to learn whatever he could learn fast forward Mount saai everybody said we will do we will listen Yeshua follow M yeah but everybody else okay they said we do a listen then we're going to go hang out while he's in Mount sa over there talking to hem 40 days 40 nights cuz it's too scary for the rest of us to hear yeah yeah but I want to be with him yeah but you can go up there okay so at the bottom of the mountain why are you going to wait yesh why you going to wait at the bottom of the mountain hang out with with the rest of the people no no no I'm going to hang out at the bottom of the mountain why because when mosu comes down whenever he comes down I want to learn whatever he has to say I'm made it or too earlier than everybody else so you're going to wait at this mountain for whatever long it takes yes saw the heart of Yeshua benon and said he's for real and he brought him the man the man that went to everybody wherever they were went to Yeshua where he was at the bottom of the mountain and also the mid and the also says that the uh the man also had Jewels special Jewels special diamonds that made everybody Rich all types of wonderful things yeshu did not miss out on anything so this Yeshua became the next leader why did he become the next leader so had humility so he loved the Torah he loved the Torah so when people love the Torah they love the truth they have to do whatever they can to fight for the truth but the second they mix their own opinion their own agenda their own desires their own addictions they start ruining the truth the more of their own filth the more the less of the truth there is to see and you see when decided to make theim this special tribe the special tribe he took all of it into account that it's going to start with Aon and it's going to be another one day named and it's going to be other all of them were taken into account all of these quim were taken into account all of these righteous people in unfortunately sometimes Wicked people but they're all going to be part of this special part of called theim so you see there's a lot of really special people that were learning at at the time of Egypt learning at the time of of right before the Holocaust during the Holocaust after the lot of amazing people so of course they're all capable of doing everything they're doing in the BET mikdash why AR they able to be part of the bedin to judge for the new month like everybody else that's not even a coin the explains you see there is an unseen poison in every man and woman there's an unseen poison that sometimes is more lethal than every other poison you can possibly imagine in fact there's a poison that's so lethal most people don't even realize it exists and it's called a bias an AIA how could the Coen and the king have a bias and what does it have to do with salary for the king who's typically the richest man of the land and called for the Coen which typically Works inside the bet what are the two thing have to do with it explains you see if we have the king Ser on the bedine to decide whether it's going to be a leap here or not whether it's going to be 13 months this year or 12 we're going to have a problem why is it a problem because you see the king is not like the rest of us you're thinking it's going to be 12 months or 13 months either way it doesn't really make much of a difference to you whether it's going to be a one first adult second adult doesn't make much of a difference to you perhaps maybe your wife is going to like it that she has more time to clean for p but in reality for all intents and purposes doesn't make much of a difference for you the king it does why because the king is thinking wait a minute hold on a second I pay my soldiers I have a million soldiers I pay each Soldier a thousand bucks a month no I paid them based on 12 months I have a million soldiers a th000 bucks a month you're talking about billion dollars it's a lot of money now you're telling me you're telling me that I have to add a month 13th month that's another whoa you're killing me here no way we'll leave it at 12 months not a leap year it's not a leap year yeah but you're the king you're the most righteous okay I'm the most righteous that's why I'm telling you no leap here why because he had has hold on a second if I add a leap here it's going to cost me all this money it's going to cost me all this money to add a leap year why don't want to add a leap here just leave it at 12 months it's fine we worked out last year worked out yeah but don't you realize that if we don't add a leap year then people going to eat if we don't add a leap year we don't add a month people GNA fast on the wrong day and not fast on the on the day they're supposed to fast for everybody listen you're you're exaggerating you're this you're that oo and what about the the the the the that goes to the to the that he's not even allowed to think of anything other than if he thinks about anything other than meaning even if he thinks about his own wife and how she's doing because he hasn't seen her in a week it says that the has to be separated from his wife for a period of time before y so now this this sad we cannot ask him to join us at the bed to decide whether it's going to be a leap year or not why Cold what cold what does he care about cold theen has to dip in the mik and during during the regular year during the regular year it's oh nice it's warm everything's okay but if I make a leap year if I had a month then I'm going to have the mik the high holidays fall on the colder part of the winter the the water is going to be colder for me I'm an old man I don't want to be colder I'm an old man say I don't want to be older that's what you're worried about Mr that's what you're worried about don't you realize that you could cause people eternity they could be eating on P they could be eating fasting on the wrong day they could be uh praying on the wrong you don't cold water it's cold water don't worry it's called water now which types of King and which types of is the referring to Wicked ones here the Kish elaborates he says the king and the high priest are not appointed to the court that makes a decision regarding a leap here the king because of the salary that heed to pay his army which depends on this decision and the high priest because of the cold adding an extra month will push off yum Kip by a month when it will be colder and therefore harder for the high priest for theen to perform the immersions and the handwashing required by him on that holy day and this rule holds for the most Pious of the Kings and for the most Pious of the high priests such as shim and it's further said in he gives another example of how bias that the Torah prepared us for that the Torah warned us about is not bias of manipulators wicked openly Wicked people like Nathan slifkin and Goldberg and all these other but rather people that you don't need to warn anybody about we warn people about these people because they're a danger to society they're a danger to society and we hope that enough people do Chua if they're already following them but we're talking about that the warnings of the Tor are warnings about the bias that a righteous person could potentially have because it is human nature to have certain things in your thoughts wait so this would negate what the Kish already said a moment ago and we're going to deal with that problem in a moment gives another problem another example he says in page 105b R the son of rosi had a tenant who would bring him a basket of fruits before every Shabbat once this tenant delivered the fruit earlier on Thursday telling him that he was already uh coming into town anyway because it was a uh a market day but also telling him by the way you know I have a uh court case at the bedin tomorrow which uh you are going to be the one of the judges isma heard this and told them oh I disallow for myself from judging the case and also accepting the fruits from you why it's a bias it's a I don't want to have any agenda I don't want to like you more no no no I don't want this says that isma to check himself follow the case anyway he didn't judge the case but he followed from the outside to see how the case is judged by the other diim the other righteous D name says he found himself finding finding arguments in the favor of his tenant and a similar story is told about R is the son of of Alisha so the is is sees his tenant nice guy delivers him fruit and he says oh hold on a second I already know you I like you on top of it you just did me a favor you brought me the fruits earlier which is nicer to have the fruits and the stuff that I need earlier than Friday but that makes me like you even more how much more maybe half of half of one 1% more but nonetheless it's still more you you find I find you find favor in my eye already that the squals me from being a DI for you that disqualifies me into being a DI for you now to check hisself to check his own truth to see how the Torah is fulfilled he himself followed the case and he saw how when the other D were questioning his tenant did he do this did he go here did he go that he noticed that subconsciously he's telling the he's he's thinking to to tell the guy tell his T no no no say this because they they'll they'll they'll agree with you on that say that say that subconsciously he wants to like feed him lines and tell him what to say so he could win proving what the Torah already said because you like him just a little bit more because you know him because you like him just a little bit more automatically that can distort your judgment of him that little bit of bias so what about so if this bias is something that everybody is subject to the Coen Gad and the uh the the king and the and everybody so technically it's contrary to what the k says that he says that the wicked people make you think that everybody's the same the explanation is as follows the reason why the tah specifically shows us how far the measure is how far the effort is that the judges that the sages have to go to in order to eliminate any type of Personal Agenda any type of bias that they have where the moment that they sense that they have a bias the moment that they know that a bias is even possible that I can't judge them because he is somebody that I like he is uh my student he is uh my tenant he did me a favor he opened a door for me he uh you know he uh gave me a ride the second I realize that there is even a possibility that I would like him a little bit more naturally that already means that I can't judge him anymore that already means I can't judge him anymore why I have a bias so because we are aware of this bias and teach this bias since the time of mosu warn about this bias being something that is part of everybody because we emphasize the importance of the warning of this bias that's what makes the judges the great sages not the same that's what makes them different that's what makes the Torah scholar different from everybody else because while the average person that means well means well wants to fight for the truth wants to say the truth he may not be aware that part of him or part of her that's motivating the fight is their addiction to winning part of him part of her that's motivating them to be as zealous because they want not think people to think that they're really smart part of him part of her inspiring them to spend a lot of time on the internet sharing whatever message that they're sharing and arguing with anybody that is disagreeing and even insulting a few well put together insults to the people that deserve it according to them it's not necessarily because of the honor of Hashem so much as it is the honor of words that came out of their mouth because you should respect me since I said the truth according to them meaning that their bias is not even something they're aware of and in fact if you ask them they'll say what's wrong with it what's wrong with the I'm biased for the truth isn't that a good thing no because you're not biased for the truth you're biased for you which happens to be true now and if you had the mistake in your hand you would be just as bias meaning that it's good that you have the truth that hasm had mercy on you you have the truth and that's what you're biased you know that's what's in your hand right now it's the tool you're with right now but so long as you're not monitoring your own bias so no so long as you're not controlling yourself so long as you're expressing anger at the person and not his actions so long as you're insulting the person and not his actions so long as you're not looking to help him but rather insult him so long as you're to beat him and not help him and save him so long as you're not really caring about anything about him but rather everything about you so long as you only care about the people on your team and not anybody on theirs so long as you care about you and not him or her you my friend are fighting for yourself you happen to have the right weapons you happen to have the truth but the truth that you're preaching is full of personal lies and it won't have the same blessing the same that someone that has the truth and preaching it for the sake of the truth will have I'll give you an example one of the greatest sages that lived Among Us is vadya in recent years of course hiska wases head of when they would go and speak together they had so much respect for each other the RKA wouldn't get up and speak no no no I can't speak theor is here and ra would say I can't speak my Rabbi is here that would speak in front of my Rabbi and it would go back and forth would tell okay if I'm really a listen to me you speak first that's how much respect they had for each other now to build P was not something that you can do with simply money there are many yes there are many buildings there are many people and you don't have two PFS in the world years ago when they were needing to build your take it to the next level a lot of money was needed they set up an event in the United States with all the welltoo donors people that have a lot of money to donate for Tora and important people that were interested in helping the famous they set up a dinner arka and were both invited to present this big thing in front of these welltoo people before the event before RKA got to speak he learned that these people many of them attending this event although they're very rich financially they're extremely poor spiritually many are driving on Shabbat eating non kosher and all types of other spiritual crimes against theem of course this is sad but nonetheless there's a job here to do raise money for the Yesa build the world of toat to what it is today a speaker came up before abka and started appraising the crowd speaker that was already benefiting from them benefiting from their generosity cuz they love to donate for the sake of Torah and this speaker this Rabbi praised them of how righteous they all were how amazing they all were and how all of their sins surely are forgiven because surely such donors as yourself are going to be welcomed into Heaven by R shimai himself praising them and assuring them that theya so long as it continues is a guaranteeing them a place next toim after himka goes up his face does not look happy and his words follow suit starts screaming from Pain starts howling from Pain saying oh after hearing such words after hearing such from the previous speaker according to the Torah we should all be ripping our clothes for such desecration of A's name live in front of everybody there the speaker included he says hearing such lies and such desecration of hem we should all rip our clothes because of such things things because we all know that Among Us here there are people that are desecrating Shabbat people that are eating people that are not keeping the Torah and anyone here he says that thinks for a moment that their Saka is going to make up for their sins has a big mistake in their hand because surely there's AAR that says that anyone that says that aad lets go of sins his life will be let go and although I am jealous and envious of you that you have the merits of supporting tah my heart cries for you all for the sins that you're making that will decree all of you in the worst possible punishments now of course the people that arrange this event to raise money perhaps even take a few points for themselves saw this as All Is Lost on one hand you cannot say anything against the RF on the other hand he just killed all of our leads all of our donors by telling them they're all Wicked and their staka is not going to help you that sadka continues this way telling them that how they all must do Chua and not think for a moment that there staka is going to help and he says don't give me any money I believe if I was there I'd probably be looking at the guy that arranged the event and see if he had a heart attack or not after hearing such words when the head of one of the says I don't want your money don't give me any money for the Yeshiva I want Shabbat I want K I want you to learn Torah and abruptly he walks away from the microphone and sits down an Agony to himself putting his hands in his face together and mourning to himself silence that has never been imagined hit the place until everyone hears one of the people in the crowd one of the rich people the really rich people start crying like a baby start crying like a baby and saying for the first time in my life the rabbi came to speak to me and not to my money this this few words caused other people to start crying for their own status realizing that their whole lives they've been making the mistake of thinking that the very same money that who gave him gave them is the money that's going to build a tah while they themselves desecrate it realizing how this doesn't make any sense and unfortunately how sometimes it was the lead ERS the rabbis the speakers the whoever that had an agenda too big for them to see the person behind the money too big for them to see that that person also wanted to go to heaven and there was no way they can if they just donated money without action behind it other people got emotional and then in a extraordinary turn of events they all walked up Toka and they said we all promise to do what you say how do we do chuba teach us what do we have to do what do we have to keep how do we keep it if you teach us we're all going to do it everyone agreed to do cha that moment and for anyone that thought for a second that you can lose for doing aem's will the very same rich person that apparently others that are also rich but were influenced by him agreed automatically with whatever he said he said Rabbi also want to make sure you know every one of us already thought about what they're going to donate before you came here but after you spoke to us we're all going to give three times what we're going to give whatever everyone decided already they're going to give each one of us already agreed to give three times that because we want to be with you we want to be with the truth we want to be with somebody that cares about us not the money that's how became as extraordinary as it is it wasn't the money it was the truth without an agenda the truth without a bias that I need to win or I need to build or I need I there is no I when a person loves that means he loves his people too and if he loves his people that means he looks at their n not their pocket that means he cares about their Heaven not the house that means he cares about anything and everything that could destroy that heaven even if that Jew is currently an enemy of aad and even if that Jew is a Jew that you're speaking against because of bad things that he's doing the second that Jew does Chua you will be more celebratory over his Chua than anybody else why because not only his his chuva going to stop causing him to sin but also stop other people from sinning and many people are going to sanctify kosh's name rather than desecrate it many more people going to go to heaven rather than burning many more people are going to go and give allow to give them the reward that he wanted to give them in the first place as the M the last M the last M says that every righteous Jew has 310 worlds 310 worlds designated to him or her for being righteous if you love that means you love each one of his children to the point that you cry because they don't have those 310 worlds you're not looking for them to go to geham and that's why you speak about geham that's why you speak about the punishment that's why you warn about the punishment and that's why you tell them as many details as possible about the punishment lest they hear it enough times that it will break the kipa the addiction to the sins that they have the addiction to winning that they have the addiction to garbage that they have and hopefully do chuva and abandon the bad ways and earn themselves those 310 worlds and even if you yourself will never get a single dime of success in this world or the next you'll never get a single me Merit for it recognition for it a mitzvah for it even it's still endlessly rewarding to know that another child of a is now destined to go to heaven instead of destined to go to G so yes you teach about death penalties and G and and and the worst possible things because the and all of the greatest Sages that taught the subject taught it on a regular basis knowing that this is necessary for many people to do Chua needless to say not just in their generation but also ours when a person loves a he loves his children and he doesn't want those children however Wicked they are today to end up in gam and he looks forward she looks forward they look forward to the day that your harsh words your harsh language broke the kipa just enough to open up that Nish that they have already instilled in them that yearns for the truth no less than it did for man who was completely more wicked than anybody else on Earth today but he did Chua he had that n and he did Chua when you you love a and you love his tah and you love his children you want all of his kids to be there in fact you want even the people that hate to be there only as lovers though and if that means you have to scare them to death then so be it because it's better you scare them to death and they end up living forever in happiness sanctifying A's name then not scaring him to death and them dying over and over again for eternity and the worst possible punishment that could happen to a person if you're going to fight for the truth remove your agenda remove your personal interest remove your pride your ego and even your addiction to winning do it for the sake of A's name and you've already won amen [Music] amen e [Music]
