Parshin show you know my son of the AC
because it's necessary see it and I
right away started with a cheesy rhyme
first I do want to make a disclaimer
that this video is gonna be a little
more oh look at that my lighting it's
more charging okay um this video is
gonna be a little bit less like moving
around and exciting in fact I don't even
think that I'm gonna get up from this
chair only because I sat today for nine
hours over a test and that test kind of
like exhausted this system the state of
mind that I'm in now after sitting well
I was actually here for part of the nine
hours and the fact that it's three
o'clock 3:00 or 5:00 in the morning
it might contribute to some fun I really
don't know how our total boss rock star
of a forefather Jacob aka Israel passes
on in this week's Torah portion before
he does he blesses his children it is
blessings he compares each of his sons
each representing a different one of the
future tribes of Israel to an animal of
different sorts some of them to wild
animals and some of them to domesticated
animals which the kids washing this
means not wild animals well it got light
outside while I was working on this
video indoors and I figured I would get
up and finish up the wild animals
represent a mode of divine service which
also is very emotional and passionate
and what is that the tribes compared to
wild animals are basically symbolizing
the type of service of God in which you
just kind of want to expire like I don't
even want to be limited by all these
physical boundaries and live in this
physical world with all this physical
stuff this mug by the way I propose I
was talking about it last week and I
didn't end up putting it in the video so
here you go check out this cool mug by
the way that I have been gifted by you
she will let up on his pretoria is my
name I never felt so special in my whole
life till I was gifted a mug that has my
name
printed on it you know if I'm ever in
some very intimidating executive meeting
and I forget my name yeah
LD wife's that's my name what no I
didn't have to look at my mug I was just
I thought that that the fly in the room
was in there it's not Cheers
yeah so this stuff and physicality I
don't like it I just want to be
spiritual I just want to like become one
with godliness and and stop with all
this stuff and although that is a very
good passion yet we also have to apply
some brains to that and know that if I
really care so much about God then I
would want to do what God wants for me
not just do what I feel is so spiritual
and God made me a human being not an
angel so I shouldn't just want to expire
but I should actually live here in this
world dealing with the physical things
that I'm dealing with and do the job
that we were made for and that's to
bring godliness here into this world
because God wants to live here we are a
piece of God our soul within a physical
body because this is really what it's
all about and this part is represented
by the domesticated animals in the
beautiful lesson the smoke that was a
small piece that I read is that Jacob
didn't just give each son each tribe its
specific mode and then leave it with
that Jacob actually blessed each of his
sons with all the other sons blessings
in one yes we should focus on the task
that we know we can do best but we
should remember that all of us together
with us doing our different tasks we are
all focused on one common goal and that
is to bring light bring goodness bring
holiness bring God into this world and
have a revelation of Mashiach and
therefore we should celebrate each
other's accomplishments say we merit the
revelation of Mashiach immediately with
our increased love for our fellow with
our unity and with our sadako the Talmud
tells us that good day let's talk our
Makarova says I go all about charity or
really translated as righteousness is
great in that it hastens the redemption
and with our increased joy may we have
the redemption now
cause everybody do and every bad word
that you say
