I get to everyone this question I've
been thinking about uh of recent and it
really came to a head this yam because I
realize that this observation is uh
becoming more and more pronounced but
let's let's talk straight here of all
the Mak which Maka gets by far the most
attention I mean most people at their s
there they have paraphernalia merch from
this MAA you know what I'm talking about
sarda you go to any Judea store on the
front counter you've got stretchy frogs
you got windup frogs you have googly
frogs you have people dressing up like
frogs what is this obsession with
masasa even in terms of songs the frogs
take Center Stage frogs here I mean I I
was a little hesitant to discuss this
but how could you ignore it why of all
the Mak you don't have people squirting
flake fake blood you don't have people
focused on and
even really should be the focus Mak is
one of the of
the when we talk about it in
yet somehow that has really captured the
attention of CLA Isel and you know
thear observes that if there's certain
things that Jewish children do or Jewish
children say there must be a basis for
it there must be a deep reason for it
because clao wouldn't do something
that's doesn't that's
not so here goes I think this will give
great meaning in the uh momentum that
Thea has especially in our times you
know it's very
interesting tells us
that made the
following why
did give up their
life jump into the fire
says they made a from
the why did the jump into the kneading
into the ovens the PK
says when are the kneading bowls near
the oven that's when the oven is hot so
the jumped into a heated oven they
didn't just jump into the oven they
jumped into the oven when the oven was
going and
yet that are commanded
on so the source of
of is the it's very interesting by the
way
in in fact The Story Goes that when the
V was seven years he met the
Shag and the Shag asked how could make
from the frogs but the frogs were
commanded explicitly the whole is based
on frogs who are not
commanded they were
Mo but frogs were commanded they were
told to
go to which the vill said there were
three possibilities they could have gone
into the kneading balls they could have
gone into other areas where the PK
says that they had different options
they could have
gone so no individual frog was commanded
to go into the oven so they were not
commanded and yet some
did so the
frog is the source of the Mitzvah of
Kes and of all the Mitzvah that we have
the most important Mitzvah and the
reason why Hashem created us call Ma
we
say we were created to bring
honor and the source
of not just to give up one's life but to
give up one's life means to dedicate
one's life the source of the greatest
value in Judaism are Thea and therefore
of all the MOs the one that is dearest
to our heart the one that infuses our
life with so much meaning is ITA so if
you had at your say there those wind up
frogs those frogs you pull it back and
they sling whatever merch of you had
there's a reason for it there's a reason
why the Jewish people are connected to
that especially in our times when we
have to overcome uh enemy that perhaps
the the that they have is
their teach us that the life of a Jew is
dedicated KES sh so no Jewish practice
is for not everything is based on the
great value
of and here we learn the great value
of wishing
