Rabbi Aaron Dovid Poston: Returning The Corona (CROWN) of Torah to its Rightful Place

[Music] welcome everyone to be even a big Madras online virtual beit midrash that's the first thing also welcome home to torah and this is the you b'nei beit midrash as I mentioned and we are Rakesh am live in Jerusalem now this is kind of like a continuation of the class I gave over Passover okay I gave a a 35 minute class with insights into certain concepts and these concepts are fundamental and I mentioned that we bring these concepts into the whole year and how did I label it that this is something that right that you can carry with you for the whole year so that's going to be very important the idea was good news we start in the Pesach Seder by talking about what called good news the galoot is something that is shameful or disgraceful the translation here would be let's see disgrace so if you go to the English store sheet which says Gomorrah 169 in the middle it was taught in the Mishnah that the father begins to Seder right the stood the part of the maggie'd with disgrace we would call Canute but he concludes with glory and we're going to discuss what is the knut and the discussion between Rob and Schmuel about how to begin but one of the verses that I brought up which was I think a very fundamental verse then you find in Psalms 113 verse 7 so we have to live with this all year round he raises the needy from the dust from the trash heap he lifts the destitute okay to seat them with the nobles with the nobles of his people okay so this is like King David in his Rock of kodesh with his intense understanding of the Almighty and his place his humility and his reliance on Hashem now this is something that we are going to experience on the Pesach Eve it's true but we say the shmatte twice a day and the third paragraph which I mentioned talks about the leaving of Egypt why is it so important to talk about the leaving aji Egypt twice a day in fact not just twice a day but thinking about it all day long so I want you to if you have a a hug gutta in front of you it's okay if you don't so this would be where Rebbe Eliezer let's start like this there were five rabbis five very prominent rabbi sitting all night long learning in the city called Barack that would be rebellious or be assured of the alleles have been Azaria or if it even repeat are fun and the other said I'm like a 70 year old man I couldn't succeed in having the exodus from Egypt mentioned every night meaning he mentioned every night but he couldn't understand from what is the source until bond Ben Zoma explained it and expounded upon it as the verse says in order you should remember the day you left Egypt all the days of your life okay you can find that in Deuteronomy chapter 16 verse 3 Lomond to screw at Yom siscon the arragements Ryan Kolya may hiya this is a dictate in the Torah a command in the Torah why is it so important youth to remember the day you left Egypt all the days of your life it sounds like your whole life correct so what is the phrase the days of your life he says that would have indicated only the days what about the nights ah so that says call you make like out all the days which includes even the nights now interestingly enough the sages mean declared that the words all the days of your life includes not only the present world but also the future world when the Messiah comes even when the Messiah comes we're still going to recall and recollect the idea that we had left Egypt now that would be a time of shock so where is this whole idea coming from that one should begin with disgrace and conclude with schrock's so I I want to mention a certain verse let me let me clarify another idea whenever it says the words of lodg'd like it actually says the word hug God ah okay there's a verse that says like this so you'll find in Exodus chapter 13 verse 8 and you shall tell your son on that day saying it is because of this the shem acted on my behalf when I left Egypt and this is like an introduction to the whole Seder itself so in the Hebrew it says that he got it out live in kabhi OMA who lay more so we've discussed this idea before but make sure it really enters into your brain Lockheed like the word Haggadah is from the word like the concept of the get Hannah sha as I began to mention when Yakko was fighting the angel they saw and he touched his thigh that that part of the the animal in in the future we're not allowed to eat okay so the the gig the gate is a sinew it's like a hard it's a hard piece like I don't know there's a must be an English word for it but the word give is our C News and C knows are you never eat a turkey leg and you have these like very they're like soft part of the bone but you don't eat them and God forbid you can even choke on them god forbid right they're not they're not soft okay they're not chewable and they're not really soft this is something hard so whenever the tour uses the word like deed it's usually a harshness the concept of harshness could be painful but then the word lame or is used in a soft it's like the word speaking or spoke right or telling versus speaking right were you telling somebody versus speaking to somebody there's a difference okay so that we saw in the Hebrew and this is one of the sources why we begin harsh or let's say with good note something shameful or harsh and then we end in schrock we end with a much more glory glory glory form that word Louisville glorious a glorious ending so I wanted to mention that cuz I think that is key is very important there's another idea that we're going to discuss and when we go into the game or itself again in that English source sheet can have if you have it I don't have the Hebrew fine so what does it mean good Newt so the more wants to clarify like why is the good Newt needed to begin with so the Gomorrah brings this mock loca so Mike locust means eight an argument or a discussion between two different ideas of two different authors or rabbis so it's between Roth and schwa so rod is the one that says we begin by mentioning from the beginning Mithila de avodah Zarah well he in the Hebrew here is all they are the day a vote this glulam how you ever say no our forefathers were idol worshipers they worship the stars and who we talk about Tara Tara who is the father of aram and we end with schmuck for um Israel meaning what that now how we how do we end it that now we are servants of God we are brought close to the service of God and what did Shmuel say Shmuel said the knut the shameful thing that we start with is of adam he knew that we were slaves to pero and in egypt and we end with the shock with the praise that god took us out from egypt and i just want to go through a few things real quickly in the Hagaddah just so we have it on our minds as we go through tonight's class so you look at a vadim ino in the Hagaddah we were slaves to Pharaoh in Egypt but it took but Hashem our God took us out from there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm now we say had he not had not the Holy One blessed be he taken our fathers out of Egypt then we our children our children's children would remain subservient to Pharaoh in Egypt meaning that if they didn't leave if Hashem had not taken them out we would be slaves and we're gonna see that the more expresses and then the comment commentary commentators say that while the father is sitting at the table he should point to his young children who don't even know yet to ask as we're gonna see is that he should point to the male servant and the female servant that says that's who we were like and now we're not now we're free because one of the important ideas we're going to discuss tonight is that one must teach their children according to their ability okay it's very important terms of quino's right we can't put too much that they can chew more than they can chew we just cannot do we have to give them bits and pieces for them to chew up and then give them more right like in life so we want to give them what they can handle so for a young child who can't really understand what it's like as we will be discussing through the evening what it means on a spiritual level to worship idols or to really be slaves at least you can point to your servants and say similar to that okay another thing is so that would be just keep this in mind when it says Vadim hi you know the power of minutes Ryan we were slaves to Pharaoh in Egypt that sounds like it was a physical slavery right but later on we say maquila like they but azor Ahai you ever say no that originally our ancestors were idol worshipers so this is a different type of called slavery on a certain sense but one was physical slavery okay and the other is a spiritual slavery and then we became close to a Shem okay there's another idea of the Isha aMDA we're later going to say it is this that stood by our fathers and for us for not only one has written against us to annihilate us but in every generation but called Ovid or every single generation only Envy Malena locality know something comes against us to destroy us so one of the questions and we're going to focus on tonight is where is this idea that we are supposed to feel as if we personally left Egypt because that's really what I think tonight tonight's class is going to be about so it's in every generation they rise against us to annihilate us but the Holy One blessed be he rescues us from their hand so I was I was just mentioning that after we get through Diana where we just praise ash-sham for all these things it would have been just enough if we just had this and just had that and just at this that how much more so our occas comma the comet avec ruler makuu fell Islamic Ummah lay know that how much more so should we be so grateful because God gave us all these numerous favors he showered upon us unbelievable and then after we speak about matzah and Pesach we mentioned the called over door high of autumn eros s ox mode this is going to be key each and every generation a man a person is obligated leros now the Rambam has a different Neusoft a different version that says llaha rose to view himself wouldn't know to show himself will see the difference surely but our understanding here is every generation dooty regard yourself as that you personally going out of Egypt and again our verse you shall tell your son on that day it's because of this that God did for me when I left Egypt and that you can find in exodus chapter chapter let's see it's chapter 13 verse 8 it's the verse we just read previously it's because of what God did for me obviously you're saying this to your son when he asked you it's because what God did for me okay I'll read it again you shall tell your son on that day it was because of this that a sham did for me when I went out of Egypt so you see it wasn't only for our forefathers that he did he redeemed from slavery but we too were redeemed with them then what does that mean we were redeemed with them were redeemed just as a by-product or we were also redeemed he brought us out from there and what is there what exactly does Egypt represent and where is it that we're going to where we're going to the mountain to accept them the the yoke of heaven and to practice what we call Judaism we practice this lifestyle that was dictated by God for our benefit and in water that he should bring us take us to the land which he promised our forefathers and then at the very end of that it's a long blessing but I do want to read it in English so you get an idea this is where we're going to mention about go ow Galia throughout the redemption of Israel and this is the end of that Sheva the end of that praise blessed are You Hashem our God King of the universe who redeemed us and redeemed our ancestors from Egypt and enabled us to reach this night that we may eat on it mots and more so Shama our God and God of our forefathers bring us also to future holidays and festivals in peace glad them in the service gladden in the rebuilding of your city and joyful at your service there we shall eat the offerings of Pesach sacrifices whose blood will gain the sides of your altar for glorious acceptance gracious acceptance we shall sing a new song of praise to you for our Redemption and for our liberation of our souls unbelievable goat I knew I'll produce enough shame oh we're praising Hashem now for the redemption of the limp and liberation of our souls blessed are us shell who redeemed Israel okay this is all just an introduction with that I would like to start on page in the top I think on the top right it says Rache none love that would be 256 oh I actually numbered the paragraph so it's paragraph 1 ok ok so before we begin I do want to mention the disk it's very important I think I'm going to speak about this Saturday night on this new show it's the annul hide world Center has a website and I will be starting a weekly show and I'm gonna be discussing why is it or why should it be that Noah hides should be learning Torah and should be learning so much from the Jewish nations so I I'm just I think it's quite clear I think it should be I think it's called a double pursuit right it should be so obvious and why do why do I need to talk about it the class is entitled beyond the seven well I'm not gonna go into it now but I'm let I'm inviting you go to Noahide world center in their Facebook page in fact I will put in the description box below a link to the Facebook page and perhaps even to the YouTube channel for the North Hyde world Center and you could plug in and you can listen on multi Shabbos or even after if you know if you can't listen on on the on the live broadcast you can always listen to the recording so we're gonna start with racial in love that's two hundred and fifty six I labeled the paragraphs we'll start with one so the first just a brief recap he speaks about the malum doe Casa dotto she'll have been the ideas you should teach your son according to his capacity of understanding so the Raj Bob explains she Malia bono Hakam who may be nabe if your son is extremely intelligent he's wise and he understands a lot if there's no Aviva Kok chuva I'll show a lota so then you just simply answer him according to his questions whatever questions he poses you have a torah obligation it's a tour obligation to her since when your son asked you on this day she'll answer him the Rambam feed that I've been of the Milan though it's true according to the understanding of the son the father's teaches him but if the son is a katana or a tip ash a tea push means he has difficulties in the Faculty of understanding oh no you should say to my son all of us were slaves in Egypt like that servant the your Butler or like the woman who's serving you and this night Todd the Oh tano Kurdish bar who God redeemed us mahadji on Allah he rose and he took us out to freedom so this would be like the most simple understanding for a child who who's not capable name hyah ha Ben gaddama ha ha but if he's an older child and he's wise Medea of these masha'Allah debandmitch ryeom then the father is obligated he should tell him everything that occurred while we were in Egypt including the Nissim the miracle Shin the Solano I they Moshe Rabbeinu all the different occurrences and miracles that occurred that Moshe performed for us Kathy dato shall men according to the understanding of the child the envelope the kiosk so this is an answer according to the students of the rajma that if the Sun is extremely smart then you teach in the laws of pay socks okay on Pesach you talk about the laws of Pesach theme la mulana but the verb shoot him and if he's not that smart then teach them simple things okay now we're going to really head deep into our concept because we want to know what exactly does it mean math killed the ganito what does it mean to begin with this disgrace or the shame never become at I mean there's gonna be several reasons mentioned madhumathi Lim super you see it's Ryan burger moon why we are beginning in this the story right how does a story begin once upon a time that's true it's happen once upon a time but what happened once upon a time we were low we were Idol worshipers we were slaves whatever it was it was bad and there's this happy ending okay is it always the happy ending no so we have to discuss that too we have to be real so the Rasch bah the writ bah let's drove the riff bah he explains big veil it takes Sheva Flor de la chemise bra I share me about your email and this was the famous quote I mentioned the beginning of this class and the one I mentioned when last week in psalms 113 that God raises us up from the dust from the trash heaps okay the rajma he explains that it's fitting this is very important it's fitting on the day of simcha to mention the very beginning of your shift loose right if you're experiencing a simpler simple means joy an elevated spirit how did you get there you weren't always there it's very important to discuss how do you got there where it all began and he's going to tell us that this actually does two things it removes your arrogance that you got you there very important and it actually helps build the schwa the praise to a Shem because it's unbelievable unbelievable it's absol believable with a lot of omona that this is where we got to because of him it's adding preys upon praise and glory upon glory okay so then these are labeled out there gimel so several acronym and this is the satyr hi um he explains ja'kayden Chanakya de la ha Kirito you know what we're obligated to do were actually obligated to recognize the good that a sham bestowed upon us today la ho dose will achieve a cliff on earth in order to give praise to him alkane CERCLA ha feels the superb acuity and that's exactly why we have to begin the story with the galoot with the shameful part the theshia me talk cbourgin newt mitzvah rare god though it become crystal clear pocus are you sure how strong the salvation was it adds so much more power to salvation when you were as I mentioned the land in the last class in addiction terms they call it rock bottom right now use the example of the boxes as being like you couldn't get lower than that right it's a thinnest you know as low as you can be so here when you when you realize and they're honest how low you were so then this will help to magnify the miracles it might saying you need to magnify miracle but you're magnifying the glory of a Shems actions because of where you got to borrow Hashem praise Lord okay darlin is commentary by the pony must be rose and he explains Mithila the news g'day LaHood dose shame shy you you shall be shipped loose in order to Leros we're gonna use that word of God to show or to see just as Israel was very lowly well I can be shamed its Roma move the gollu they were elevated and they were redeemed Comeau cane auto so - now if that's the case now now what a poppy sure under my shoe budding taxes almost olam he says even if we're in exile we're under the subjugation of the other nations but what is it it's it's about faith the besson is Kalevala shava we have to know that in the end we will be brought to tranquility there will be salvation and knock that's rule after be there'll be a peace there'll be a peace at the end just as it says and this is a very important concept we discussed this before sodium tequila some you stream that by righteous people most of their beginnings they begin with a lot of pains and sufferings the soak them Salva but in the end they will have tranquility in the end right we talked about this a lot with Yaakov with the avos right that in the end you're supposed to be Gary Gary means like a stranger like having difficulties moving around the bit not having a permanency and that's the way God wanted it for us we should not have make a permanency in this world but rather experience the difficulties of nomadic life so to speak feeling it right even if you're living in a permanent dwelling like we are today we should know that this is not our final resting place and we may experience much suffering in this world but in the end we will experience true shalva true peace and tranquility ok now we're going to go to paragraph 3 mausi you'll be shocked what exactly are we ending when it says we shall end bespeak so apparently we're talking about this mock locus this argument the discussion between Rob and shmona Gomorrah in other words what exactly is the ganoush that we're beginning with in telling over the story so Roth explains and this was the words of the Gomorrah you begin with the idea of a a votive Gillooly how you ever say no that our forefathers were actually idol worshipers Shmuel says of oedema you know been the shrine we were physically slaves okay very clear rob is of the spiritual dimension and Schmuel is more explaining the galoot is of the physical dimension okay I'm Nam however Loudoun barber Gamora mousey ashrak but neither one explained how they end which Fox it's true so now we're going to discuss six different ideas the Rambam so according to the Rambam he holds that what was Rob's opinion the Roth began by telling us she met Philip good news is true you start by telling about the shameful act that we are our forefathers were either worshipers but we end with schmuck that what that now we are brought close to God in his service this is the huge shock this is the huge praise unbelievable not every idol worshiper gets to to be a servant of God foolish mu L now current issue this is according to the ROM Bob's understanding so according to Shmuel that we begin with shock we begin with the knut that we were slaves to Pharaoh in Egypt and we see you Shiva who C / honey singh we have to speak about all the miracles the supernatural events the NIF Lotion la solana the word that happened to us so this would be what this would be physical again so you clearly it seems according to the Rambam to differentiate between Rob and Schmo Rob is talking about a spiritual nature and therefore we were brought close to God as opposed to being other worshipers and according to Shmuel we were slaves the in Egypt and then all these miracles occurred to us that we are no longer slaves bet the disc area he explains to see embrasure aku nick fat haha Lashon rim coder Makela right before that brock at the end where glorious rail there's a hole one of a whole bunch of Hallel part of hollow that we say before we eat and therefore that's the schwa all the hallelujahs right all the praises to God our office come will come after Diana okay so that is where the ending of the shock is and he explains shimmy rockers con una Flo some boy after we already mentioned all the wonders of God Elaine Alicia favela halal suits obviously we must be in a state of explaining and proclaiming praise to a shop number three gimel Sri Leah left head he explained to see Mishra who be Rasulullah the actual blessing that I made that would be the shock that we say after Hallel before the eating which was a share girl new Goliath I was saying a minute shrine right who redeemed us and redeemed our forefathers from Egypt now the me Tyrion dollied he explains she miss I mean be shabak she gets on intimates Ryan the knit craft new livadas Hashem the comma Mallos todos that what is the signing off what is this D finishing off the schmuck that he took us out of Egypt and he brought us close to the service of Hashem with several really nice attributes really positive attributes okay the Xebec pisaq he explains according to roth that we're finishing off spock is the c / a gula i from the Groeschel arbors a bunny that what does it mean to finish off schrock that's by explaining the whole redemption by gar shinning out by expounding on the verses by the four sons that's according to that would be wroth whereas a current issue all the same shimasu but parshas are romney are you they'd of thee now that's a little bit strange well if we look at Shmuel statement here because we said he's the one who holds the physical part so then we're not really talking with Abraham and Tara being idol worshipers but perhaps a love on who tried to kill Yaakov our father and he was physically safe from that okay the grins brings to explain I think this is very interesting and this will end this paragraph this is the end of paragraph three so he brings it brings to explain hey Vlad ostrov Hayley - Moe that both broth and smoke they both agree see per the sorry simcha Shiva who mirrors that they both agree that the praise we give to God is by saying now we have been brought close to God in his service what does that mean how can that both agree meaning that the children of Israel when they left Egypt that alone we became been a hurry we became free we call that freedom real true freedom Zaku after youth Hashem and through that freedom we chose right there was free will involved we chose to be servants of we chose to be the people of God so there it's like a double whammy in other words there's an overlap right yes we had true physical freedom but only through that we were able to go to the next level of spiritual freedom now paragraph for the reason sheet acknowledged by parshas our Romney are you they are they in other words why is it that the rabbi's established this parsha right we already got through what the Torah wants of us to explain the story so why is this so key to the story that our that and our army and wanted to destroy my father why so what did the governor say the Darsh mayor romneyís they'd of thee that you should explain the verse is from the my father was the remain tried to destroy my father on sigma call a partial cool until you finished the whole partial so explains the Pisgah I read Shattuck need leaders Harsha that we did there was an establishment when I say establishment told me the rabbinic establishment to put this paragraph in a rummy are you they are they in order to what why today moussaka has the Shem I shared in Milano in order to tell over the kindness the Hessen which a Shem bestowed upon us okay so that's just the first beginning but he had we have three different opinions here the Ziva pisaq he explains the reason that the rabbi's established to darkness out of the Romney or they know thee that aramean wanted to destroy my father why methi Shahi yogi Manilow / am a city in the trying that we since we are obligated to praise and give recognition to God for the miracle of leaving Egypt we begin logical began news we start with the shameful part and we end with shock the acabo saw other Lajos Liholiho Roy he claims that a person is not able to give the correct praises as sitting Ella the Kriya parshas Maivia below him until he reads the parsha that has to do with bringing the firstfruits this has to do with bringing in the firstfruits she Mithila burger moose in Siam asbestos and that whole we caught a confession okay it begins with like we were either worshipers or that our forefather was trying to be killed by the irony in and we end with shock the colas inning its ears miss Ryan and it includes the leaving of Egypt the OC is a most seen with all the miracles and wonders the your son may ask he gives a hint in the reading of the parsha which says a rummy I did all the this idea that IRA me and wanted to kill my father we find the dress in the Gemara now if you look in Deuteronomy chapter 16 verse 3 it this is the idea here that the matzah is called lehem only let him oniy means bled of bread of my flow of my affliction Shaniqua matzah Malika Moni what is the matzah called the matzah is called the bread of my affliction but you know what onika mean affliction but it can also mean to answer that so many questions are answered and discussed on the matzah the matzah is like show-and-tell and you can discuss so much everything we've been discussing in the last few Shirin should be discussed at the Pesach table I'll shame I mean alayha devar iam harb a why is it called let him oniy not as affliction but as the bread of answering because you answer upon it many things and the parshas a rummy or they'd other mentions the word Aniyah right so if you go to Deuteronomy chapter 26 verse 5 this is all about the firstfruits so in number 5 says you should call out and say before Shem your God and our men tried to destroy my forefather now look in the Hebrew Vani Tavia Marta so they translated shall call out and say it means you shall answer and say ok that's what it means so the whole concept of answering is said over there so then it fits in perfectly with the bread of affliction the bread of answering this is why you should say these words because of the mechanical gazelle shava but it seems like that's what it is the connection between the word Aniyah answering over by the bickering the firstfruits there's in the in the confession and it says Lamoni which you're gonna be answering many things upon and therefore they make that's why they make the trush at acknowledge rush but the very Mar Bay it's exactly because you're going to be answering many things okay now this is very interesting the Gras the Vilna Gaon he claims like this the B reticular leaders partials are Romney I've a noisy the reason why this parsha was a fixed to be said on the Pesach night then I really AM Ian who wanted to kill my father Kieko mosh yearly Yaakov it's a love on now this is what we call a my Szabo similar bunny my Szabo similar money means whatever happened to our forefathers is a foreshadowing of what's going to happen to us so just as what it occurred to Yaakov with love on meaning eerily its relevance rhyme it's good exactly the same thing is going to happen to the Jewish people in Egypt keep my Szabo similar bunny this is the famous expression whatever happens to them it foreshadows what's gonna happen to us kagome Asham it seen Alesha Jakob LaRouche LaVon when Yaakov left love ons house he took so much wealth with him moving around it was Russia Michelle miss Ryan when the Jews left Egypt we took with us a recluse kadal so much wealth love and hips Imam oh no I need a hummock loose Shami Jakob Marcos Tom maja mine so Levon tried to steal the goods the right steal the money from Yaakov in other words try to get Yaakov to work for basically nothing he promised them everything if the goats would be like a certain way and guess what Yakko produced the goats and the sheep to look a certain way as it said if you want to go to the verses in Genesis chapter 30 verse 37 and 38 that's where we see that Yaakov that Yakov left with a lot of wealth and specifically in Genesis 31 verse 23 where it discusses that well that's the next part the seven days so let's go to chapter 30 verse 37 and 38 in Genesis and you can see over there and said it's 30 isn't it is yakov then took himself fresh rods this idea of a rod a rod is a malkia and this is gonna be similar to the staff of motion so he took a staff and fresh routes of poplar and hazel and chestnut and he peeled white streaks in them laying bare the white of the rods he set up the rods which had peeled in the Runnels one of the Runnels in the wooden receptacles to which the flocks came to drink so when the this is interesting because he was able to produce sheep of the certain color and stripes different patterns based on the rods that had different stripes and different patterns while the sheep were having sex okay while they were procreating and then he was able to accumulate the wealth away from Livan so you need to read that in depth to understand what I'm talking about but it wasn't a trick it wasn't magic it's pure genetics okay that what we do with our eyes and our thoughts while we're broke in the act of procreating is going to have a metaphysical effect a real effect on the character of our children but this is a foreshadowing Moshe with the staff going through the water so there's a staff involved and there's water involved by Yaakov and there's a staff and water involved by Moshe and the whole idea of you gets the Atma trying also also the famous rhyme luck ooh okay Yakko Barak mid LaVon it's true the Yaakov ran away from LaVon the lovin rod off a Corral the Siegel be Amish be loved and caught up to him on the seventh day so to Pharaoh chase after the children of Israel and caught up with them on the seventh day which was yesterday right the seventh day Pesach it's a a foreshadowing of events so now we're at paragraph five now we did discuss this idea that one of the most important things to get child to ask the questions since once he asked the questions then you have a mitzvah from the Torah to answer them as the Torah itself says when your son asks you on this day you shall answer him what if the Sun doesn't ask right or if he's not smart enough to ask or you don't have a son it's just you and your wife right so that's where we're going to lead now in verse in paragraph five the midst of telling over the lead the story of leaving Egypt when the son does not ask is it still a mitzvah from the Torah now you'll notice this is why the Hagaddah is written in such a way that or if the whole evening is set up in a way where the children will be forced to ask questions right we want to be able to fill the midst of telling over the story on the highest level so there are things that we do to prompt them we lean you and only in every other night we we dip twice we don't even dip once on most other nights certainly we don't eat matzah on other nights so and then we ask the questions and we get them to ask the questions we actually put them in a position that they are going to ask the questions so that we will be able to fill this Mitzvah on at Uralla if you understand all of the croc choreography that goes into this evening to elicit them to ask questions is paramount so the question is in love who show a yachtsman so if you don't have a son the person asks themself if you've Lucian eight-time in there how come in even if you have two rabbis two very wise people that know although a lock is a Pesach they're supposed to ask each other so the Rambam in the safer mitzvahs brings down in the name of the Messiah if you look in Exodus chapter 13 14 it says key shall club in koma car when you're or if your child asks you tomorrow right that means macomb account the father is obligated to tell over the son even if even if the child doesn't ask as it says and you shall tell your son in chapter 13 verse 8 even if a person doesn't have a son he's still obligated to tell over the story in Egypt to himself Oh or between him and others and that you'll find in chapter 13 verse 3 where it says the Omar sham al Haram where's your house there you should remember this day which you left from Egypt so Moses says to the people remember the day you left from Egypt disappear as we mention is is is is mentioning it doesn't just mean remembering okay that's according to the Rambam and now there's a little bit more of explanation so there's a midst of the guy told if an exile you shall tell over to your son is what no hey guys I'm in the Torah it's actually obligated from the Torah even when you don't have the son asking you this is according to the Rambam so to know hagas midst the cypriot is Mizraim in a torah a field of Benoa Bay not smell even if it's just yourself according to the Rambam not everyone agrees with that we'll see shortly and let's go down to the bottom of that paragraph where it says and this is the Pirlo it brings down the name of the rush Shimon hat Korah ready the finesse only from the Torah Ain however the soppy assumed this rhyme to show up Ella raca shall have been s are these the only time you're obligated from the Torah is when the son asked the father as it says in Exodus 13 verse 14 it will be when your son asks you tomorrow say what is this and you say to him with a strong hand God brought us out of Egypt of a caution aim a venture where love Eve but anytime the son does not ask the father so Micaiah me Mitzvahs appears it's mine you see that's right are you there C is mitzvah my hat's off not so more the only way you're going to fulfill the story telling over the leaving Egypt is by speaking about the matzah the PASOK and the moral machine EMU the Mishnah t know she aim aim das a Ben but then we learned that in our mission if the Sun doesn't have intelligence so the father teaches him but guess what he's only teaching and made their abundant meaning from the rabbi's the rabbi's miss stablished that you should do this but you don't fulfill your Torah obligation now what is the difference right when we say oh this is the rabbinic or this is from the Torah it means look in terms of God he's gonna give reward but his reward is different perhaps right whenever you fulfill a rabbinic commandment you're actually fulfilling a torah law a Torah benek law when you fulfill God's law that's written in the Torah you're only fulfilling a Torah law so there's actually more reward to fulfilling a rabbinic law than you are and not only that then there's also ideas how can one who's only obligated Rabbinical II help someone who's obligated on a tour level fulfill their obligation okay so that's going to be for another class but there are obviously reallocations and why it should be different we always try if we can to fulfill something on a Torah level like I'll give you an example it says in the Torah when you eat right you're gonna eat and you're gonna be satisfied you should bless the Lord your God so what if you're not satisfied you don't bless the Lord your God no we still blessed but it's only their abundant right it's not your not fulfilling benching giving grace after meals on the highest level you're only doing it me the robe button say and if someone else is going to help someone else who fills obligation they should least be equal right or someone on a Torah level who ate a certain amount and satisfied can help somebody who has not even a certain amount has not totally satisfied fulfill his obligation and benching by vegetating out loud and the other person can an answer there's obviously other ramifications as well in terms of doubt whenever there's a doubt on a Torah level at our law so we go strict and if there's a doubt on a rabbinic level the general rule is that we go lenient okay so that there's hope there's a lot of other ramifications those are just simple some simple ones okay so so what did the rabbi's establish you're taking this high but unless I deliver no puppy shame of Chaillot and therefore the rabbi's established that the father should teach his son to tell over the story even if his son doesn't ask but as you know the four questions are all part of the Haggadah so therefore Ticknor should high of autumn lisara be seasons ryan may no lebay not smell but there are Shayla with chuhwa came mr. Satara therefore a man is obligated to tell over the story of Egypt even if he's by himself at least in a question-and-answer format just like you would find in the Torah the son asked and then you answer him you do the same thing even if you're by yourself and the reason is the times that cover hikami Masashi knowing balajl Isaiah it's for this reason that the rabbi's established all these different types of differences in the choreography of the evening could they left me a Seban in order to awaken or rouse the Sun the issue Azov and the Aviv in order to be should ask the Father and therefore the cocky Aquila of a mitzvah Torah and through this the father would then be able to fulfill the mitzvot from the Torah by teaching over his son once he asks okay this is a verse this is a paragraph six you'll find that on the left side of the Sheep what exactly from where do we know that we open up with Newt so what exactly is the Knut the Roth says he begins by telling us our youth a about Azara you were slaves right we begin by telling them our children that we were slaves in Egypt no sorry Roth held if they avoid us glulam iovis a know that we were idol worshipers she was the one that said Ovid mi you know we were slaves physical slaves so according to the remaining anak he explains the reason of Roth was because when we say the answer to the son is very intelligent as it says in Deuteronomy chapter 6 verse 24 hashem commanded us to do all of these cooking the Teavana hashem i saw that color who came a moliro hashem ha ha in order to fear god this is going to be a whole class 1 itself one of the most important things we have to learn is to fear God this is the ultimate of everything to have all of God there's different types there's different levels of fear we're not talking my trepidation per se we're talking about much higher than that absolute or and what do we know from that March mr. Sark les opera & Levin but Kela lawyer / st. agiri Shem we have to tell him our forefathers were not real truth fear God feed god-fearing people they didn't know but rather they Rider worshipers and Schmuel holds that we begin with we were slaves and that's why it says again in Deuteronomy chapter 6 verse 21 Liam Martin live in kavadi Marino it actually says right you should tell your son that we were slaves to Pharaoh in Egypt and he took us out from its Ryan the yacht Kazakh with a strong hand God took us out of Egypt with a strong hand I want to Skip's number eight so eager Jota yeah a ghoul AHA goof Oh a nephesh what is the real praise what is the prime praise are we praising God on the redemption of the body or on the redemption of the soul it's a great question and I kind of alluded to the idea that Matt might be the difference between Rob and Shmuel so the Amika schewe explains that the reasons of both Rob and shwoo that behold there's a simcha there's a certain joy the fact that we left Egypt which is a lot a goof which is a Redemption on a physical level she got to meet Ryan me I'll do her hair so we actually left slavery towards freedom whereas al Ghul's an ethic this idea of a salvation some kind of a freedom of the soul redemption a redeeming of the soul Shahnaz see no idea Hashem we became servants of God and we came close before him at Mount Sinai and he gave us the Torah now with that in mind Roth must have held that they do begin with the gun nut you begin with this idea of the shame that originally we were idol worshippers and in the end we were brought close to a sham to serve Him and we became servants of God because the main the Iker harga Shah the main feeling that one should have is the hodo son mace is the is the praising of the miracle which is the Goosen nefesh which is really the salvation that comes upon the soul which is the pack lisa of them which is the actual pole sole purpose of man but shoe on the other hand held there is this youth to begin by speaking about the shame of the fact we were slaves since even though the main craze is about the mace about the miracle that was fitting to become to what only through men we were able to have the goal to nefesh we were actually able to have the redemption of the soul nevertheless they established nevertheless they established that we should give praise on the redemption of the body why I think one of the main things that I explained a lot in Judaism things are very out counterintuitive counterintuitive and I think this is a prime example what we're going to read now is the prime lesson of why things are counterintuitive see if we're saying now that this will be that last thing nevertheless even though the main thing is the Google as an ethic is the salvation of the soul nevertheless they established that we should get praise on the goof on the salvation of the body why because both of them am shana make he was piling the goulash and nefesh since there she eh nam there is to them i should really like this she h nam Shana simcha making its polemic goose and nefesh canoe must have been a Russia listen to this since there is in them a lack or there's not as much happiness we're talking about for the body the real joy is the salvation of the soul but because this the physical part doesn't have as much joy like when we think about the evil son he asks what is this service to you he doesn't get it so he's thinking to himself what is all this busyness that you make me work so hard each and every year cleaning the kitchen stopping in comments sitting through this boring Seder that because of the the the yoke of the Torah and the missus he looks at as a very difficult work like a voter's kasha from allaha good oiler it's just a lot of work and heaviness he's not he's not spiritually minded he's into the physicality therefore the rabbi's established we begin with the physical of the D my you know the pyramids Ryan by explaining because you wouldn't be happy wanting to get that the Russia we want to get the kid the people that are not into the spirituality into a state of happiness they would be happy about the spirit their physical part so even though we know the main talk list the main goal of man is to be free spiritually right to be a true servant of God nevertheless we have to begin you know on the level for those people that have to catch up they have to catch up there to the physicality so we have to start there unbeliev I'm believing once kurdish more it makes so much sense could they should Coulomb your guard surely is mokuba Toba sundays in order to get everybody feeling good and happy about the goodness of the miracles that took place that would be a conditional and what about Roth how can we explain Rob Roth also agrees he's gonna say that we begin with other day my email even though he holds that the main the main thing we should start with that we should really be starting with is that we were slaves we were idol worshipers but our power our Haggadah don't begin with Roth so ultimately Roth also agrees to a certain extent he just thinks that's the main thing that we start with up a demon why let's see ah Roth of are Sheila Shana m-- MIT polymers make him the Tosa nephesh regarding those people who are not activated happy because of the goodness of the soul mm summate him but gulosa goof but they're not even happy about the salvation or the redemption of the body the fish amok Massa Nagala is from us Ryan is sky blue ball Torah because ultimately what happens in the end we stood at the mountain we took responsibility we ended up taking the yoke of Torah and Mitsos lion knock lamb yo to mr. a baby with Ryan me Sharla sky mitzvahs they would have been more happy okay they would have been the higher na clam yo ter so we want to get them to the point that it should be it should be a better deal to be a servant of God than to be the servant of Pharaoh but they're not holding there yet so if you look in the anal Yahoo he explains the difference between Rob and Shmuel in their argument is the same as an earlier argument between Rebbe Nachman Barajas de and Rob and ruther in the sectors hi-yah rose so RAV nachman bar Rob his their halts the ASHRAE ham shelter deacon you know how praised and glorious tsadikim right-rear Isis people are that you know what happens to them they're punished in this world Chinon machine mo amazi when a righteous person is punished in this world why the ficha McCobb him scarce shall a mala mala in order they should receive the full reward in the world to come they get it now they get what to call Gehenna will get their punishment now so that they're free from all kinds of punishments in the world to come but rather held that praiseworthy r2d came because there makka blame rove towboat knows that they will still receive a great amount of reward in this world the scar shall label Mabon they're gonna get their full reward in the world to come it's like is my glass half empty or half full so rather held okay so ruff is the one who holds like Rebbe Nachman bar ralph is de the praiseworthy are that tsadikim that are really punished in this world therefore we begin with good news that talks about us being idol worshippers originally we were our fathers were idol worshipers but now we're brought close to Hashem in his service which is what the goodness for the Soul he's focusing on the goodness of the soul why the fish a new rule ahoy dis out told us a goof because according to him you don't even consider how fitting it is to make any proclamation of the glory that comes on the on the body remember that's Roth it was all that spirit however Shmuel holds that it's toe that tsadikim Li he knows elements that he held that it's good for a righteous person to derive benefit and pleasure from this world therefore he sees it fit to give praise and all kinds of praises for the freedom of the of the body in this world okay now this is this is like unbelievable what we're about to see in the shari torah he explains that in truth everybody Raavan Shmuel they actually both agree yes we both say of oedema II know and we write and that's parallel to what that that's parallel to the idea of the the physical body being enslaved and the redemption of the body as well as we begin by saying right that we were then our forefathers were idol worshipers but now we were brought close to Hashem in his service and that's parallel the redemption and the freedom of the soul that is what that is redeemed from the 49 levels of Touma and we're in the period of the omer the 49 days between Passover and Pentecost and Cheruiyot the receiving of the Torah where we are elevating ourselves through the 49 levels of Tula however nikla clue there is a discussion the argument how fitting is it to begin with the order in the Haggadah itself and Roth held that it's fitting to begin that we were originally idol worshipers are for files for idol worshipers why because the prime redemption is the redemption of the soul where Shmuel held that even though that the prime power of redemption even even Shmuel held this even small help like rock that the prime redemption is the redemption of the soul nevertheless it's fitting to begin first Lajos to give praises on the redemption of the body why because most people live feed the fish vinaya dumb carousing we were flowing from from like that's why we call Adam we were we were formed from the Adam ah we're high men were very physical beings that's what we are we're very physical beings they na Thema problem al Ghul is a nephesh and we're not necessarily excited and moved and very enthusiastic about the idea of being redeemed on our soul level therefore sorry to 1/2 team2 he'll Allah Hodos Allah gülizar goof therefore it's necessary to start out by talking about the praises of the redemption of the body the zenith Holly the top name laid codon because then you can ignite and become enthusiastic enthusiasm to Z as amongst all the people we talk Kafka Voula Hodos off al you loose an effort and then you'll be able to bring them to the next level where they will be giving praises on the goose and nefesh because they're already so enthusiastic that's where you have to start you sometimes you have to bring it down to the level of the people and I hope this becomes very clear especially when you're trying to teach all right this is you don't want to dumb the Torah down but you need to obviously bring it to a point where the masses can accept it now what I think is important is to talk about why is it that we have to see ourselves as if we were leaving Egypt so we mentioned already the called door of a door high of other lis roads as oxmonkey who yo se me miss Ryan each and every generation a person is obligated to see himself and we mentioned the difference the Rambam says and I have here the Rambam he gives a whole different example he says in each and every generation of Merton a person must present himself as Z as if he himself has now left the slavery of Egypt you have to understand the nuance here there's a hey he says like this the cold order hi Adam la Rose we say it means la Rose what's the difference real are to see yourself and one is to show yourself so one is to actually feel it and the other one is to play a part let me read this list here hands an English commentary on the bottom on that there's a slight difficulty with the Rambam statement because even the Rambam zone text of the Haggadah he takes out the hey that one should see himself not to present himself and what is presenting yourself mean to show others that he feels this way so critic to the Rambam the way he says it in Halawa is one should show yourself not necessarily feel it whereas in the Haggadah the Rambam zone a gutter he takes the hay out and he says to show himself - sorry - to see oneself now the lucu they see coat notes that the follow hollow coat emphasized how the obligation of recalling the exodus applies not only to the recitation of the Haggadah but to all the practices performed on Pesach since we must recite that gutta to others as implied by the question-and-answer approach a quiet required by the halacha the manner in which a person performs all the other Passover practices must also demonstrate to others his personal experience of the exodus so in other words perhaps the way the rom mom is explaining to show others because since you're involved with others you want to inspire them to also feel as if they left Egypt and that's how I understand it now ready this is where the the ripa and their vuja ham so they write a year she year guys shall adam be at smo that a person should actually feel himself Alou who higher of their Avadh as if he was an avid that person should feel as if he was a slave yo Tyler Harris minutes Ryan and that he personally went out from to freedom from Egypt as it's written in the mood Rahab that we don't use the language of the hey lahar owes as the Rambam rights but Lee rose to see himself however now let's see the Rambam according to the Rambam where he writes but called dorva door hi Adam Lee hi rose to show himself kilauea Biot smell yo se oughtta machine movements Ryan what does he say that he should show himself as if he himself went out now from slavery in Egypt therefore Keesha only made other but Lila is that when a person is established I'm sorry but sued when a person is making his meal on this night sorry Clara will Ishtar through whom received Eric Karros he has to eat and sit in a way that demonstrates freedom like the sifter hi I'm in the diva Rambam he writes lahar rose to show and not to actually see oneself so near a shield who shall say other poulos what does the Rambam mean if the Rama is according to the sifter kyon is the Rambam says you're showing its it seems from the obligation that you're a person is making all the actions that appear and make sense that he is yo se mushy blue blue Harris he's like he's experiencing he's creating the experience for himself as if he was enslaved and is now going out to freedom Oh simple Oh same Mitzvah show Lila these are all the missiles allow Pesach Kagoda matzah more air cpricci mitzrayim like we said eating the matzah and the morrow the bitter herbs they're speaking about the story of the evening Egypt and the leaning the leaning can be diet meal uh Shannon Romani when you very carefully look at the words of the Rob Bob should be Glaus cycle of Horus that smell it's because you need to show yourself she upset something's right that you're leaving Egypt now you need to eat and to drink in a way of Camus okay and I want to go down now to 1313 is on the next page race on McDowell a tack Lisa's but Ernest the purpose of the meditation right the reason you're going to go deep into yourself key Lou yolks a limit shrine right hit bonus you're going to try to reach this deep understanding on your own as if new left Egypt so the remaining anak he explains the Shia they should voting Adam she got send me miss Ryan through a person understanding on a deepest level that he left Egypt to yellow Ola years Hashem up enough that the world right that really you should always be afraid year at all the sham but what we wrote to instruct us a sham Alamo Israel when you see what God did for the Jewish people right the aim tear alone surah nip/tuck Russia is you would see the pains that would occur you would automatically believe in a sham sham o Shia as Israel he's the one who saved the Jewish people based surah at their time of need when they were in the deepest troubles come out sorrows go loose miss Ryan just like that the pains that we experience when we were in Egypt just gave the Haiti leader Abu Bakr II Maha Rita that God will perfect or bring to a higher level of goodness for the Jews in there and alkane sorrows hagalo same kadai hello sheís Israel to show us olamim there for all the pains of exile they were all in order to bring a salvation to the Jewish people and the eternal salvation okay in the safe route ask luckless of Musa explains the tactics the perp of telling over the story of leaving Egypt is not only in order a man should believe in the miracles that occur to our forefathers but if Marilla hi of other mirrors if sorry Pema dua if so then why should a person be obligated to see himself as if he left Egypt rather you're so dumb it's the hill Chikara other my love I'm Luke Shama I'm really the purpose that the foundation of this Mitzvah is that a person should receive upon himself the yoke of the kingdom of heaven and this is the whole purpose of leaving Egypt as it says in done in numbers chapter as you see chapter 15 verse 41 is that right yeah look it up I share Jose see Jose cs10 there to thrive which I have taken you out from the land of Egypt wield the hammer him in order to be for you a God he wants that relationship and it says in Deuteronomy chapter 4 verse 20 the eighth hem you guys look of Hashem God took you Volodya scam McCory Barza I took you out from where what's the kora barzell it's the melting pot the smelting pot of Egypt leoch leak lola arm to be from the people nathless clemency and inheritance just like this day therefore a man is obligated to see himself as if he left Egypt the fee shall be a day Shamar Guiche beneficial enough shall I'm sorry the goof of a nutshell that he's able to see he's able to feel in his physical being and in his soul that he himself left Egypt behold he was Meshuga Osmel a borough that he is now slaving he's a slave to a Shem he's me Schubert himself to God me talk Hocker sat over because of the goodness that ashamed bestowed upon him qingxue Lai massacre citta this is the completion of gratitude when you're grateful because someone was still good upon you your lamassu Bala Bala Tova you become him in button indebted to him that's a good word your and your ma machine dead at him now I really want to go to 14 because it was a very interesting piece in each and every generation now this talks about actually the next chapter also a lot about reincarnation I wonder I want to end up here because I don't want to go too deep into it that we believe in reincarnation and therefore we ourselves were there we were in Egypt and this is on a very soul level okay so once we understand that we were there because we actually say in the Torah God actually tells us that you're supposed to say to your children God did did this for me so I want to leave you and verses paragraphs 14 and 15 it's very important that you can read on your own and and it's just it's absolutely mind-boggling okay so if you don't believe in reincarnation it's fine but if you if you read this you'll come to a greater appreciation and understanding how your soul was enslaved in Egypt it was there and it was there for a reason and it for every single year on Pesach it says weary experienced it we go through this whole process again and it's on a very it's like it's unbelievable it's not just I don't even know metaphysical that concept clarifies it we're talking about physically it's true if they had not been freed we would still be there that's true physically but we're talking about spiritually spiritually okay four-fifths of the Jewish people passed away before Pesach in the eleven the ninth plague one month within the month before Pesach and it's very interesting that this year also I'm not gonna say God forbid numbers we don't know number but a tremendous amount of righteous people passed on before Pesach this year and the way it's explained in the Kabbalah is that this is helping to remove the tree pose not that God forbid that these holy souls would leave both but because they were removed they were taken away that this keeps away the Matata egg the persecutor the / the prosecutor of the Jewish people which is the tsaatan from having any claims and therefore this is part and parcel of redemption and this is a very deep concept and I don't want to spook anybody out too much we ended off the talk about reincarnation which we're not going to go deep into we talked about Siddiqui past I'm not going to go too much into that either right now but I just want to mention that we say the shmatte twice a day that this is a it's like a miniature Pesach right whatever we just experienced over the night of the Seder can you imagine the amount of emotion and intellect that we put into our Seder and now we're going to bring a piece of that with us every single day and night of the year and like in other words it's like a miniature reliving of that experience of Pesach Pesach is a miniature reliving of the experience that happened 3,300 years ago and every year since and now we're taking a piece of that into our daily lives living with such a muna that Hashem saved us and he'll save us he is with us and he will be with us right it's like it's like the lesson it's a night of a muna a night of clean off of real true education in being a servant to a Shem and taking it with you through the whole years we have an obligation to say SH ma twice a day but that's only at very specific times we should be living with the Sh'ma all 24 hours or whatever 18 waking hours that we have 16 whatever however many hours people are awake during the day and everybody sleeps it different about Sobeys right - Shem I wish everyone a good to hear I great upcoming year with I don't know I don't how to express it overcoming the corona meaning lifting the crown raising the crown to its to its rightful place okay because that's what corona means the crown right we all know that and therefore the quatre Cantor is 620 Katja means crown and that's the 613 mitzvahs and seven more 620 which in its rightful place that the Jewish people should Misrata cheb come together as one fully unified doing the 613 misses they should and Ben's right a sham that the the world takes on in a deep level and I'll use the word beyond the seven but at least the seven and whatever that means beyond okay in its depths okay should take on and therefore the catcher will come back to its rightful place finish em I wish everyone a great year welcome home to Torah please subscribe if you enjoy this I know this is a very text-oriented it's not for everybody so I wish you all a shana tova a great year [Music]
