Home2Torah Shabbat HaGadol and The Command Rabbi Poston Tzav 5778

[Music] okay good good good okay so welcome back we are a partial side which is Leviticus chapter 6 verse 2 now it's also a parshat it's also Shabbos times I though so let me give you a little introduction to shout this under the law you guys there okay so why is it called Shabbat have you go home anybody know that's here oh so we're about to leave Israel I'm sorry we're about how to see who's paying attention we're about to leave Egypt and what does God tell us besides the past our Passover offering and you're leaving he tells us get ready how I'm gonna get ready if you go to chapter in Exodus chapter 12 in the beginning and actually go to verse 3 but it doesn't matter right Hashem said to Moses an hour in the land of Egypt saying this mud shall be for you the beginning of the months it shall be for you the first of the months of the year speak to the entire Assembly of Israel say to them on the 10th of this month they shall take for themselves each man a lamb or a kid for each father's house a lamb or a cake for the household now this day the 10th of the month was on the Sabbath was on Shabbat okay if the household will be too small that you know you get all together you join homes according to the number everyone according to wedding each shall be counted for the lamb with a kid an unblemished lamb or kid amount within its year show it'd be for you okay and then you're gonna slaughter it on the 14th look at well look at five it has to be unblemished so basically on the 10th we take it we bring it into our homes we time it to our bed posts for three days we watched it I mean we need to sit there for three days looking at it but we looked at an examined it for any blemishes or pro-bono have to be blemish free so number five says an unblemished right and then it shall be yours for examination until the fourteenth day of the month so was taken on the 10th it was going to be sacrificed on the 14th and even the night of the 15th now I mentioned that this day is Shabbat happened to be so wouldn't we know what did we learn about the sheep in the relationship Egyptians when Yosef met with his brothers and his father when they came down to Egypt he tells them he says to them that when we want to make sure that we don't assimilate okay we don't want to marry the the non-jewish Gyptians so we want to be get alive we want to be separate it's a literally separate women ship when that I ask you what is your occupation what do you do for a living tell them we are shepherds he says let us see shortly soon as I find it because being a shepherd is an abomination in the eyes of the Egyptians now why is that why why would being a shepherd be an abomination in the eyes of the Egyptians because they worshipped amongst many idols in many different deities the sheep in fact Aries the month of Nisan is Aries Aries is a ram an adult lamb the grown-up full of energy full of vigor and strength and that's no coincidence why we leave Egypt on the fifteenth of the month the full moon of Aries when it's there God the whole purpose of the Jew is to tell the truth and spread the truth and to wipe out fake news and false gods and as we mentioned last week wasn't less rhythms week before the Rambam explains why do we have crib adults in partially grow and he makes the first things he mentions is that these three animals anyway you have the the cow the lamb in the coat these these are the three most domesticated and common animals that the nations of the world actually worship and they don't slaughter those things you know you go to India he says this is the Rambam 2,000 years ago the in India they worship the cow they don't look at the cat in Egypt they worship the Sheep they don't slaughter the Sheep and then he mentions another group of people I'm not sure if they're what do you call them Satan worshippers or whatever but the goat the image of a goat whether it's a half man half clothes whatever it is it with these horns coming out so there's a group of people who thought that would not slaughter the goat anyway he says this is one of the reasons that we bring the different kerberos if you remember that class so what happens is that our job is to slaughter this this lamb but in order to do that we've to bring it to our house and look for any blemishes and can you imagine one that survived on that the tenth day of the month of Nisan and we bring them into a house and the Egyptians didn't do a thing God created a miracle that was an absolute miracle that they didn't not just repel but they didn't cause a riot and start killing us you know when the Jew builds in addition to their house here in Israel the UN goes absolutely nuts and when they start to build a not another settlement but anything that even looks remotely like a new a new house and a settlement the whole world goes ballistic so you can imagine what would have happened on that day when the Jews in Egypt would bring goats in sheep or goats into their house for the sake of slaughter in the in a few days guys you get the idea what's going on here am I still online okay what I did what I was looking for Joseph looking for Joe says I'll show you where he says it okay see this is it it's going to be part of the equation okay so in Genesis chapter 46 verse 31 and Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household I would go and tell Pharaoh and I will say to him my brothers are my father's household who in the land of Canaan have come to me the men are Shepherds for their cattlemen they have been counting their flocks and cattle and everything they own they brought and it should be when federal summons you and says what is your occupation then you are to say your servants have been cattlemen from our youth until now both we and our forefathers and what is the point of all this so that we so that you may be able to settle in the region of Goshen in other words am they not even get up for st. but in a area far away from civilized or the civilization of Egypt and ready for the last viewer since all shepherds are abhorrent to Egyptians so in Hebrew 34 it says keep to a but it's Ryan cold row its own because all shepherds are a abomination a shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians so you got it right there so I know that in the Messianic and Christian world they try to convince people that the JC man is the is a paste Pascal and so I don't know if they know this this is a little bit problematic for them because for us it's very hard for us to accept a god or God head or a you know deity that's going to mimic something that we have held in our tradition from time immemorial as a slaughter of an idol so why would they try to convince us to go along their route letting let him try to teach us that he is the past the land when we are full cognizant to the fact that the past of the lab was an idle that we were slaughtering and not only did we slaughter we put the blood on our door posts to show them and pushes openly to show God that we trusted in him that we don't care what you have to say number one number two we broasted it it cannot be boiled it cannot be put into water it has to be roasted on an open fire and the difference between cooking and roasting is the amount of smoke and smell that's going to waft through the streets of Egypt you follow what I'm saying so far have you ever been to really crispy but you and I'm sure you've barbecue plenty of your life mayor you're upset and MIFA when you make a barbecue lady you're not even closing the lid we're talking about an open pit barbecue here and a whole land so there's a lot of smoke and this was Chavez taiga though it's the great shots that the great isn't it one of the greatest miracles took place but it also comes from us in other words Hashem created the miracle but we did the action he said do this we did it and a result of us doing it there was a another was we took the pains and the efforts to do with and risk great risk to do a god say and God protected us and just another idea that even the name of the holiday is called pesos it doesn't say the total it's called Pesa the animal the Corbyn the offering is called pass on it says that God skipped over our houses that's why English would call pass over the God passed over the word pass up means passed over the wonderful festival pass over you follow the reasoning in other words in the Torah it actually says you shall celebrate has about salt the festival of these eleven breaths so the way that the way that works is like this that the Jewish people are praising God Mao simultaneously God is praising the Jewish people we caught pass out you remembered what Hashem did for us what he did for us he skipped over our homes and he took out his vengeance on these issues so that's what's called Pesa because he skipped over he calls it Hakka matzos because we made the matches he says make those those quickly right don't let it become leaven we are furtherance to do the will of God and do the mitzvahs and therefore he calls it haha matzos because of us and we call pestsof because of him does a every day I don't know what the name of the relationship is called but it's one of those it's a it's very intertwined and we're constantly complimenting and remembering all his goodness and he's turning around and constantly remembering and praising the Jews for their actions okay look we have a lot more to say about it I'm gonna have another few thoughts you guys want to share anything at this moment or asking me questions okay I just know that you still there that's that's important something we spoke about last week with the actual names of the offerings I haven't talked about the olla offering but I came across this I think it's the wrong they're gonna go him but I heard it from that my dad Steve he mentions the shmatte self you know that one of the laws of the Shema is as it says you know we you should love the Lord with all your heart with all your might right with all your soul in Hebrew the word smash in man I saw Australia here and at the end the word Akkad so there's a large iron and there was a large dollar there's two letters that are large and we said that word means witness right where the witnesses of God I know there's another group out there they started called them so the Jay witnesses the je h au v something like that anyway I'm not sure they're not a pronounced but anyway so we're the witnesses and we say Sh'ma Israel and when we say Shamala we're supposed to feel and dedicate ourselves to God so much that is if we are a Corbin as if your motion necklace we're giving over our soul or might our resources to a chef so much that were willing to die we imagine ourselves dying in monitors death like rabbi Akiba the famous rabbi who died while he was reciting the Shema and students said how can you even have concentration and intent Saints Ramallah they're ripping and ripping your skin apart and he said I've waited my whole life for this so we're in the stimulant saying the Shema Dedinje are dedicating ourselves to the unification of one guy that's how that's why another thing Christians think it's so easy you know it's an easy fish to get a Jew but if a Jew has spent his whole life saying I dedicate my whole will my blood my sweat my tears everything to unification of one God then and I'm willing to die as a martyr's death so what did what do we say about the Rambam the ROM bond said that when we bring the curb I know it's soul for a soul it's nefesh topless necklace it's as if I'm giving my soul up but this guy wear this Adam I should say is coming instead of me and what do we set out a poor person and use the word nephesh because even though he's bringing their vegetable even though he's bringing that which we said right shouldn't be brought because it should be a live animal we shouldn't fall into the trap of Cain and Abel nevertheless because a support person and he's giving his all it's like a rich person giving a vegetable offering it's a poor person giving the vegetable because that's all he has it's as if you put his whole soul into it and it's acceptable God says it's a pleasing aroma so I lost track with wanting to go with this oh yeah I remember so the word smashing man I actually are representative of three of the offerings because of the acronym and the word of God are the other three since there are six types of offering schmagges - la même the peace offerings the men of Sh'ma is the mccullough frame the eye is the older the burnt offering so that's 1/2 and the aside at the end is olive is the ashot the guilt offering the head is the hottest the sin offering and the dollar represents the four types of Thanksgiving offering when when they say someone passes through a desert passes through an ocean was incarcerated and released or sick and was healed these are the four obligations of bringing a Thanksgiving offering so we say Schmeiser al a shell kingdom hashem echad we're bringing down this whole idea of the core Bono's of the offerings that we ourselves are willing to be a corpsman and offering from Hashem isn't that nice still there okay all right now we're gonna start first shot south so it says in the Bible in chapter 6 verse 2 Saab s our own the esplanade labor right to command the word south if you notice on the sheets I usually give you lots of notes to think about lots of words but we're going to be dealing with this word self a lot so this is in Leviticus chapter 6 verses soon so the first thing that begins is a lot of the laws or the introduction of the olla of the burnt offering once Shepard said to most spoke to Moses saying command I rode in the Sun say this is the law of the burnt offering is the burnt offering that stays on the flame on the altar all night until the morning and the fire of the altar should be kept the flame on it the comet has to dug down a certain type of the tunic and he's supposed to separate the ash of what the fire consumed of the burnt offerings on the altar and place it next to the altar so a lot of things here have to do with to go down to number six well actually no I should at least hip anything but he takes the actions and puts them outside the camp the fire on the altar should be kept burning on it and should not be extinguished it's very important and the college so people would upon it every morning to prepare the burnt offering upon it and shall cause the facts of the peace offering to go and smoke upon it a permanent file should remain a flame on the altar it shall not be extinguished okay this is very important which is ready because that's what I'm talking about okay so Rashi says right there if you look on sir sheet one rocky said when it says the word south what does sound mean it always denotes some type of urging we're going to say he was zing Roos me odd it's a language of being fervor as' and meticulous to fulfill certain commandments but it's not just now it also means in the future because it says also the estimate of his sons okay so it's a command that they should be the nose a command command them but the word command itself it's not just for now but it's forever I'm going to deal with this now rubbishing taught the scripture needs there's knows the Torah God says the word soft because this is about human nature when man knows there's going to be a loss of money or he doesn't know that there will be a loss of money careful so that there won't be a loss of money you can tell a lot of anti-semitic jokes at this point but obviously God we're ease about our money so because there's a loss of money involved huge we're going to discuss tonight and it goes further it actually has a chain reaction like dominoes when there's a loss of money it affects other aspects of our lives okay so God is giving us this dire warning to be very careful act promptly quickly and meticulously so there won't be a loss of money which will then cause other problems okay so that's all we've read so far in Hebrew right aimed sob and Liz a bruised knee out in the darkness so the word south means to be fir forest immediately and for future generations remission said biota turcica to lose a breeze with muffin fish both hiss are keys that the tone itself needs to prompt you in a place where there would be loss of money or a lack of money a loss of money and that was Rashi but the clear card adds another idea Ames a moose keeping the muhkam Oslo this idea of prompting summon to the fur vest is really only in a place we knew the word laziness could exist where there could be laziness or laxity and as a proof text he brings down the Proverbs 1915 Utz look top Hill tart de mer when one is lazy they could fall into a deep sleep you know what I mean guys have you ever been bored and you know that when you're bored the next thing you wake up and you realize wow what happens all that time it's like I fell asleep when you're bored not with you fall asleep way to erode a cos when you're bored you get lazy right even if you're you're lazy then you become less meticulous and you is going to be what's the word like it's arm is gonna be pre I forget the word I'm looking for but it'd be a consequence to your laziness okay for example okay we're going to talk about the con even the temple if they get lazy there will be repercussions that's one of the world's looking for to their laziness such as maybe messing up on the Kerberos and the Kerberos being messed up one become invalid and then that's a lack of money in the person who's seeking atonement has to bring another another offering because the first one got messed up another example of laziness and messing things up were how dangerous and how everyone really incorporates a certain amount of laziness because that's the way we are we have any eights under our that doesn't want to gather bed and what's an easy life so look at proverbs 6 9 God through this is King Solomon but through the Prophet Oh lazy what how long will you live there when will you get up from your sleep most people are sleeping I but I ate selfish power Matata cool you should not that hard when you're gonna get up from your sleep my grocery shooter said 99% of the world is asleep walking in their sleep okay yes he says right here the word sob is Amitabha she's AIESEC the Akita a scholar Lila on a boat there that the sob here is part of the command to be involved in keeping that fire awake sorry keeping the fire lit the entire night to keep the fire lit okay Kathy you gotta admit it's okay to stay up late night and learn to write so you gotta keep the fire lit until the morning and now there is somewhere in the ocean the coast to be concerned that from the aspect of laziness that is commonly found in man that one would come to this lumber all used work toner but he used to slumber and girl ruined equipment by the culling except what I take care of making sure that the fire is lit that they're gonna end up being they're gonna end up messing up on on kerbin us-afghan sorry zingers that's why the coward needs to be extremely prompt and carefully meticulous and a example for this the rain brings down is the example of the silent piece the loss of money have you ever heard the expression bored to death people can be bored I think there was even someone who died they put on their death certificate bored to death so he says she could start to uh he got ish coha lively yoga meets our selfish monkeys there's more pain to the person okay there's more painted a person by staying awake all night and being bored by just watching this fire or putting wood on the fire then the loss of money and people will pay anything to if they're bored stiff right they'll pay to go to movies they'll pay you know you know what I mean for entertainment people will pay for entertainment just because they're bored so what's more painful the loss of the money that you paid for to get out of the border with the boredom obviously the boredom is worse and you will explain money so it says in our in our taboo that kahani and general Connie are very prompt and very zealous ok 0 seem pain they're extremely furs and why because it says here Aaron and his sons right but as we said the throat and the colony for all generations must be like this and they should be like this especially when it comes to the avodah the the service in the temple we are Volusia they should wipe their eyes rightly should wipe away the sleep from their eyes no ma a.m. and the crust from their eyelids get a scoop avoid the color lying on a boat and they should be involved in the service to God the entire night until the morning now this is an interesting idea because this idea of loss of money that it says here there are many different opinions so we're going to talk about the three cars idea and he says that the the Ola the burnt offering itself which we've discussed several times is for is to a child for he Heuer a lathe he Worrell a means the the thoughts of the heart meaning the most inner thoughts that need atonement worth the the wrong thoughts okay another idea just people while we're at it it says he saw a piece right we're going to use that make the translation as a loss of money a loss of money or a lack of money but it also could mean the word keys is like a pocket a covering so I heard this room out my glass team he told it over in the name of the was a city of epi I remember the name that God created us with certain organs that have a covering and we're not God wants us to be even more concerned about the organs that don't have a cover it mean it's the solder on keeps relaxed not the money but lack the cover so if you see something with your eyes so God created the keys he created right you just closed your eyes you see something you shouldn't be looking at you'd have a natural covering close your eyes you hear something you should be listening to so you have these little flaps so you cover you close your ears okay so that's a keys you cover it you want to speak Russian harder or you want to say something that should be say so you have lips you can close your lips but which organ doesn't have a keys that you can actually open and close and that's your brain that's your thoughts so this is where the according to discuses reverie is a beautiful insight that this is where the command of carefully you know be fervor smooth you don't have a covering and that would be watch your thoughts be very careful of your thoughts control your thoughts okay so now back into the text how do you guys like that still there so he brings down the Gemara thank you hey Briggs not a Gemara in true mom in your Shami there was a story remember BLT not really Jochen on the object they casita it says rapid Jochen on lost his wallet in other words that says keys Cacique day then it's home that his wife knows you talking about a pocket idea return of a pocket or pocketbook hearing it's the word wallet he lost his father if you imagine these rabbis walking around in Boston's walk I'm gonna tell you the truth I told you the story and horrific toes of the story a few weeks ago some was here visiting and learning with me and we got out of the car and he lost he left his wallet in the cab and we spent an hour track it down Abby got it but for that hour he lost his mind can you imagine it was a credit card it was money everything was in his wallet he was like you know you don't I mean have you ever happens to you you just like go up and that is the guy with the madness and I brought the chef I was calm and we tracked it down so what happened was very often I lost his wallet but own mean a writer and his it's the asked him the question in Turin and guess what the other he didn't know the answer you see the connection he lost his wallet okay that's one fact the students asked him the question and even he always knows how come he doesn't know right now so they said to him keep it named of the caseta of the date that it's you gotta love the Jewish humor because you lost your wallet you lost your mind it means you lost your knowledge so you sit back to that ready for this die to believe Battaglia the mind is dependent on the hearts the liebler Casita Thalia and the heart is dependent on the money only you can come up and say this right meet Conrad yeah see here you have proof that what jaffe Solanki so you hope that - we are be late but other and this is basically reverse in Ecclesiastes that really 7-7 in Cohibas Ecclesiastes in Hebrew yeah I shake your holy father I shake is a monetary oppression monetary oppression makes a a wise person well miss can bomb elated he says foolish I'm sure it's a good translation but it's like all over the place like they've lost their mind yeah I'll get it leave the tunnel and as a result they lose right they lose what the understanding it destroys yeah I bake at late night on it which is a gift it's going to destroy the the understanding which is a gift so which is related to the heart in the universe look at Rashi on this verse we say that I slept at the tea it's going to be the understanding which is a gift it's going to destroy that the heart of wisdom which God gave as a gift which is a gift man as it says now look in Proverbs two six four the Lord gives what if he's giving the wisdom that means it's a gift and where does it come from it comes from his mouth knowledge and discernment come so this is like it's like in a home run here we're talking about when the rabbi loses his wallet he he's not able to function and think properly and he explained why because the heart the head is dependent on the heart the heart is dependent on the money okay and this is a gift that God gave don't think about this you've seen that I think I don't know I hadn't been American a long time but they say a mind is a terrible thing to waste so they're not just talk about drugs it's all my boredom to talk about getting involved with the wrong kids not choosing the right schools the right lifestyle I mean the mind is a terrible thing to waste he says here this is why we say I share not a little team lock show the Maha Nakhon rush it it's fine God gave you this thing here noggin as a gift to do what with to think about and to be considered as a factory it's a factory for the a time that it's time means the Torah for the Tree of Life it's a it's it's a factory to grind up and to process the Torah that's why God gave you a line you see Ali Bowl it show the he wrote that there but we end up bringing our heart higher and and overcoming the thoughts meaning not the runway and thinking about sick if so that's the case this is why we need to make sure that the colleague brings the Corbyn correctly because if he doesn't bring the korvac the offering correctly he is to bring another one and what did we call that and call that fee siren keys that is a loss of money the retailers bucked over the eye bait is totally gone we call that a total loss and that's how it's explained in the men dish and then what happens is through this loss of incorrectly making the first offering then he's obviously supposed to breathe another but what's gonna happen he's so worried it concerned that he lost money in the first one there's no damage going to mess up the second one because he's worried about the money right I think even in psychology they say that over-concerned it doesn't always it's not always beneficial it actually you know the laws of attraction if you're already thinking negatively oh my god I've messed up I better not mess up again when we say I'll tell people don't forget remember you say don't forget you already here's the donuts and anyway while you're learning all you hear is forget it's all negative talk positively remember remember remember work whatever it is so if the person is already concerned about the loss it's likely to bring out and bring about another loss so the word she says I'm making sorry keep saying yeah I'll be doctor Balibo because the first offering that he lost this money the monetary value he lost his mind and his heart and he's going to come to think romli I was looking at gothcorp - a Nika partly or then the second core member the whole reason for the Corbin anyways for bad thoughts and if that's the case you're just compounding and compounding bad thoughts upon bad thoughts and there's like no end to it so that's what you have to solve here especially by the curb enola by the burnt offering where there's a total loss and we'll explain why in a second that this okay here's another example let's say four people pray right you guys pray you use the arsenal sitter or whatever sitter you use and there are certain things that if you don't think about where you don't mention you actually have to go back and repeat for example Rosh Hodesh Shabbat the first the first rough of the first three broad closes certain content one should have and they don't have the intent so they're supposed to go back so in a lot of cases people come to me and I you have to evaluate if this person is actually going to mess himself even further by repeating even though the law requires them to repeat if I ask them if they're not going to have any better intention the second time it's better not to repeat it because not only if they repeat it again and blow it so to speak because they're so merry about and they're not have the concentration of the mind to do with break the second time I may actually tell them it's better off not repeating it because of the worry so he says how can you ever atone for those thoughts by bringing another offering that comes on the fact that you lost money in the first one it's only going to bother you so much and you're going to mess up and this is why the colonies to get it right the first time the fee factor comments are xavier is video technically the hall a dacha because it's a total loss and not really we're not really discussing that's not lost yet but it's a loss to him but it's the hero it has to do with totally from bad thoughts okay now we're going to talk about the the total loss a little bit more and why a Corbin olá fits into that category any questions at this point I guess not okay done our offense is alternatively since the entire partial is I mean I'm totally read now we never mentioned I'm sorry as you see we are Carney blame on the Doros this is actually a command that the colonies should be teaching the little Connie you know the father should be teaching their children which is very interesting that this falls in the same week that Passover we're leading up to its Passover okay I just actually want to say one more thing about shot Mr Ludlow so there are six days leading up to Shabbos those six days are all preparation for that holy day so we go around you by who we were looking for the best food we're preparing ourselves for Shabbat right all six teens were thinking about Shabbat at the end of the prayer everyday we say it's day one of the week we don't use Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday we use day one of the week day two of the week looking towards Shabbos everything is about shouts our whole week is around Chaves so all the preparation energy going into the week in from the week into Shabbat great but guess what works the other way around it's like a I don't know how to express it I don't know it's metaphysically so you're building energy into Shabbat and then the Shabbat brings energy additional energy holy energy into the week so whatever happened on that survive brings power into the week so that's how we have day 1 day 2 3 right after Shabbat all the way to the week so what comes out what the rabbi's are teaching us is that because what we did by following God's command all in that Shabbat by taking those risks but doing the command of a sham he said do this even though it's not going to be comfortable you have no idea and what the neighbors better having to react but I'm telling you to do this they went ahead and did it and because they did it it brought the it caused the miracle no that's what closed somebody can go what we do has an effect on the universe there's no doubt about it but when we follow God's plan it's extra tension extra tension Lee magnified right it's unbelievable what can happen when we do what God wants not just what we want but we add into the equation and we follow the equation that we want to be true servants of God he will protect us anymore pour his sheva his his providence and influence into our lives believe that without any limit it's just like it's hard to even imagine both Shabbos and GOG low represents that that concept okay so the Connie was supposed to teach their children and it says mom dunzo tyra coppola they should be specifically teaching about those burnt offerings and the laws of this sin offerings as opposed all right all the offerings they have to teach their children about all these offerings and this these teachings that the father's the county are going to teach their children you think the kids pay for it you think the kids say you think that the the father's send their kids tuition bill no the fathers have to teach their children for free again this is the idea of the Smokey's there's a lack of money you can go out to teach other people from money you'd sit at home and teaching children for free you still the obligation to teach your children for free and how do we know it says in the Gomorrah God tells us just like I got taught you for free God didn't charge us it was a revelation there was a revelation and we were like wow right like high as high can be we saw God we heard lightning and we saw thunder I mean we were like wasted I really beyond the pale here so he says I taught you for free you have an obligation to teach for free and there's interesting that when you teach your child it's as if he's standing at the revelation this goes the chain after generation after generation after generation it says they get more but a grandfather teaches his grandchild it's as if he's getting the heavenly if the ones right from God himself act now Sinai and it's coming through him to his children it's only benefits us imagine every time I teach my children I'm like I'm getting the best lesson I we get from from God himself that amazing that the Kadeem are not necessarily wealthy now you might think I got a lot of Kony who are wealthy but that's because god bless them but in the ancient times the Connie were not the landowners I just want to know if you guys are still there okay the Cody were not allowed to own land they had no hay leaked by artists and so how did they function financially or how did they function with foodstuffs so they were fed basically their meals came on a daily basis from either from Hashem himself or get me explain how that works so you have 12 tribes right we're not talking about levy when we add in Menasha fryer Cu 12 tribes lady Akoni were spread throughout the 12 tribes and so you had 12 you had there were there were two groups from each tribe of colony that came there were 24 groups basically that came one week a season twice a year let's say so they served each group plan of the cony who were divided up amongst the 12 tribes and then subdivide ypres further into two groups served one week in the summer and one week in the winter or in the spring in the fall basically they served two weeks of the year but not consecutive one week here and one week there and that's what's called a miss merit toe renewed they served in reserve duty in the temple so while they were the temple surveying they got all the meat pretty much they wanted because all the offerings were brought some of them were entirely burnt some of them were shared by the owners and the Connie okay so from the show funk of all beats from God's table they hate to me but also the Trueba the gifts that were given by the farmers and the rest of this rock so the Tontine can live in other words they could work or they can work but it wasn't you know even in high tech today many konima Fester's and there were lots of real estate as an investment but they didn't get a hey look they didn't get a portion in the land like everyone else did so they lived day to day based on what people gave them and that's called a fish monkeys because of this lack of money we were concerned that maybe they would lose their dock they would lose their knowledge that is as we clearly expressed in the you know the history of rubber you're not that it was dependent on money right through their their mind didn't good nuts if they didn't have money therefore God is coming again to say it south right command our own it his sons but command meaning to be furthest about it okay meaning to teach your future generations and teach them this important lesson about the old are about the burnt offering and that's why it says zoast October this is the Torah this is the law this is the Torah itself that we're talking about in this parsha and that's really the whole the hope of the vapor is all about toe toes cut all the procedures of the Connie now I want you to go to number five on the source sheet it's in Malathi Molokai and we we know that the Cody that says that when you have a doubt to go up to the gut the place that God will choose and you'll speak to the Connie the priests and the judges so it's it's not just priests we're going to be the teachers but the vm and any of the sanctions that are up there were the judges but the priests their main occupation should be teaching torah so it says in Malachi 2:7 for a priest lips shall guard knowledge and teaching should be sought from his mouth for he is a messenger of the Lord of Hosts you're familiar with this idea he sipped a holding that the lips of the coing Yeshua dot should guard docked with his knowledge the taurah and taurah the Avakian repealed and you should request from his mouth because he is the agent agent of hashem so that's why the colony have to be extra careful and to be very strong strength in their hearts and the Torah of God in order to be able to continue to teach their own children I'm not just their own children but to teach all those class rather than what you look Nico Lankan dare she cover gonna be open on that should not occur to them what happened to Rubio cannot write it was just a story but that there that they would if anybody would ask them a question and they wouldn't no no we want them to know it should be on their lips you go to them what does it mean it should be on their lips I mean she it's accessible it should be accessible they should be able to know the answer and then look at hi guy or maybe we'll deliver Rashi here look at Rashi on Maliki to seven through the priests lips coming upon inton to guard that knowledge why because the matter had already been delivered to them they know the Tartar they have to keep it and they shall teach your ordinance to Jacob you look at Deuteronomy 33 10 they shall teach your ordinances to Jacob and your target is rob and they shall place it says before your burnt offerings of how the altar were talk about the cow hiding we're talking about the Codding they're worthy of doing this and specifically the bread offering because everything is completely consumed there's no there's no benefit to them you understand there's no if you are coming and you're doing your your shift and they say to you you know which side what do you want to do you want to go offer up the slugging would you get like a nice best steaks or do you want to go to the bird you get nothing I should see get nothing at the highest the hides are almost worthless because of so many hides right the simple supply and demand Theory expense why they're almost worthless but anyway let's go to this little more rash either he is a messenger an agent of only one blessing me let the minister angels to serve Him and enters compartment which we're talking about the holy the holy temple itself okay so the next thing is in hot guy I did hot guy I know let's do that now I got to 11 okay so so said the Lord now asked the priest you're supposed to go and ask the priest we met when you have questions when you want to learn Torah and like when like shrewd amar low is tapash counting we don't expect you to get it wrong you want the colony to get it right so therefore we have to supply them with their foods in there so they don't get this you know go nuts over not having food but it's the county of themselves that should be so careful so that they don't have a lack of money as well by causing problems and messing up within the temple okay good so far okay so we're continuing it says right to our end to his sons in the whole Seder in the whole organization of ikura so far and so now we have not mentioned Ireland at all we only mentioned the sons of our honor as it says in the metric that consumer who was distancing our own because of the sin that he was involved with of the golden calf but Moses prayed on his behalf and we have this understanding in the Midrash where it says one would hate the well but love the water so how is that how can you hate the well and love the water so it's brought down in the Midrash to explain that all of the cubanos that are mentioned in the partial Micra right most of them are dealing with sin offerings and if we had not sinned with the angle with the golden calf we wouldn't need cubanos at all so if you look in Jeremiah 7 verses 22 and 23 it's really 23 but if you look at those two verses and four needed that I speak with your forefathers north command them on the day I brought them out of Egypt concerning a boy brought burnt offering more sacrifice meaning that when we were leaving there was no need for sacrifices but this thing that I command them saying obey me look at what does God want obey me so that I am your God you are my people and you walk in all the ways that I command you so that it made me well with you so the first verse explained right God did not mention anything about curbing us when we left in terms of sin that would be on honey tio Tomas specifically that brought you out that would be before the sin of the golden calf Lord Savita my dear ate all those Emma he didn't speak about these types of offerings it was only after the sin of the golden calf that we were commanded as we mentioned in a few marshes ago the day after Yom Kippur to build the Michigan and to offer up these corners because there would be no need then for it's only then that there would be a need for atonement after the sin and since Arad was involved in making the calf so that would be the reason for bringing all these covetous and that's why God had distance distanced at our earth as we know that a prosecutor cannot act as a defense attorney ain't a-goin haces enabler the who would want the prosecutor to come to your defense in most cases he's got an agenda and that's to put you behind bars so I should careful motions feel at Oh until this took place Moses who was all because of Moses bringing forgiveness and praying for forgiveness for our so this gets into a little bit of an idea of the types of wood that are to be brought up on the altar so there are two types of wood that are not to be brought up on the altar and that would be the Ziya together the the olive wood or the living divine that comes from a great treat as though as divine as a Kathryn because what do we do we do bring up on the altar wine and oil so why denial is acting as part of the carpet right and we're using them to burn these woods these types of us to burn the carbonyl so as a result we're not going to bring right we're not going to bring those woods because we're bringing those the total the todos are the resultant the produce the produce is coming up as part of the atonement but the wood itself is not and most understood this and through that and prayed for our own and and this is a very interesting idea these a lot of meditation in the meantime I just wish everyone a hot cushion some math a kosher hug Tessa the India to shem they're still week left before pestsof there's no reason why we can't bring shia now and have the temple built or at least the altar with the walls that are necessary to offer a proper court with Pesa and celebrating with all of our families with such tremendous joy and gratitude to hashem not only for the past but for the president of taking us out of Egypt we're supposed to relive and we experienced believing Egypt not just because we relive we live the dead but this is what God wants and wants us to be free and wants to take us out of bondage he doesn't want us to live a miserable servitude life towards nothingness but a fulfilled life in being true servants of the Shem and to see to seek our true freedom and this year more than any should be fitting and there's not the show we should see the kind of shock didn't hear me [Music]
