Yishai Fleisher: The Revelation: Who Split the Red Sea?

[Music] alright folks you are listening to the shine flasher show broadcasting live from Judea to the world and it is a beautiful sunset here in Judea on the first Sunday first jump is shown of : mode not the first day of color mode but but it's like the first reason I say it's the first Sunday which maybe doesn't make a lot of senses what I really meant to say is it's the first sunny day that's what I meant by Sunday right this Sunday it's also the first sunny day it's been you know rainy and and gray I'm not using the word gloomy or dark because it wasn't gloomy or dark it was beautiful but we've stopped saying the blessings are asking God for rain we've now asked them for do and as is often the case here in the Land of Israel when the Jewish people start to pray a for do and not for rain does the weather changes immediately the spiritual energy of the land is different and so today is Sunday and a sunny day and it's also like it's also a day that is past the hard part of Pesach which is cleaning and getting ready and past the first Shabbat of Pesach the past first few days and it's also a time where we're already kind of used to the corona life and so suddenly it's sunny outside and we're past some of the hard things and we're kind of getting into some kind of some kind of rhythm at least some of us and I I wanted to kind of you know turn a corner a little bit together with you and and use an energy that's in the air and that's the energy of Revelation now some people take that energy of Revelation which which we're hoping that this corona time with its dark cloud of death or and sickness over so many people is also going to bring into the world an element of Revelation other people see that revelation as something of an apocalypse people have certain people have a pop apocalyptic thinking and I can understand them you know I respect it I can understand it but I personally am of more of a believer in in in incredible changes that happen in this world if you think about it the things that happened from a hundred years ago to today are absolutely revolutionary massive evolutions massive revolutions empires that that just got totally whisked away in the paths from the past are they're not there today so we're talking about the austro-hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire and the British Empire the Japanese Empire and many other empires just kind of whisk the way in the last the German Empire really after after World War one and so so so many things changed and so I believe in like these kind of natural changes that happen I just think that that's the way God runs the world and I have a piece of news for people who think that the word apocalypse means utter destruction and stuff it does but the root of the word apocalypse actually comes from Revelation if you revelation and uncovering right if you look at Google and and it's from you know the compiled dictionaries it says that the word apocalypse comes from Old English the old French in ecclesiastical latin from greep from greek apocalypsis from apocalyptan which means uncovered to reveal okay so I prefer the apocalypse of Revelation while other people you know think of it's some kind of miracle and and and somewhat destruction so my my understanding is you know and I think that that's just the way of the world and at the same time nobody can deny that the world has also gone such incredible changes yet they seem natural but if you think about it they're almost like unnatural the technological revolution is only the latest of the revolutions and yet the coronavirus puts us as we've talked about before at a question mark of how much science can really conquer everything and we have to turn back to God with all of our scientific and power and knowledge and that brings me to the most incredible of all apocalyptic and revelatory moments which was the splitting of the Red Sea and in the next hour I'm going to give a class I'm gonna play for you a class that I gave a few days ago on zoom to Mizrahi World News Rafi and I talked about one of my favorite events which is the splitting of the Red Sea and the question mark is the question that I posed is who really split the Red Sea who really split the Red Sea and and I hope that you're gonna enjoy this class and the reason of course that we're talking about that now is not just because of coronavirus not just because of Revelation not just because by the way we're a hundred years and I'll and I'll be dealing with us in the next few weeks a hundred years since San Remo 100 years since San Remo San Remo is the gathering of world powers in Italy after World War one in which they really dealt with the dissolution of the empires that I discussed previously that I certain that I discussed a few minutes ago including the austro-hungarian and the Turkish and and at the last two days on the 24th and 25th of April 19-20 in in San Remo Italy they discussed the dispossession of the Turkish the Ottoman Turkish assets including the Holy Land the land of Israel so called Palestine and guess what it was determined that the Balfour Declaration which was issued three years prior was going to be the in was going to be adopted as international law that happened 100 years ago now 100 years ago like this month and so amazing amazing changes and that leads all the way to the greatest revelation in modern times which was the six-day war when God's hand just reach down into this world and shows itself showed its truth all of the murder that the Jewish people suffered all the blood libels in Europe all the pogroms all the Holocaust all the death all the murder all the rape all the pillage the hand of God came down and said enough I am Alive and I'm going to allow the Jewish people to come back to their and and yet the rage against the Jews and the hate against the Jews continues but since that revelation of 1948 and 1967 really also nineteen twenty at the San Remo chords in 1917 the Balfour Declaration all those together a constitute a great great revelation and really showing of God's face God shows his face to us face to face if we just want to look at it and this next class is really about that amazing moment 3,500 years ago at the splitting of the Red Sea and the question is who really had the the merit the scoot to split that c4 that incredible moment where God really said to the world I am here i am here for my story and i'm not going to be made invisible by you i'm going to be seen so i hope that you're gonna enjoy this next class and I want to again bless you from the land of Israel from this beautiful sunny day right it's a beautiful sunny day of Cola mouid and if you're sick or if you know anybody's sick I want to really pray for you and say only healing only strength and and may we again embrace as one of the memes that's been going around next year in person alright folks here is my class to world news rocky about who split the Red Sea Shalom Shalom we say Fleischer here and it is totally an honor and a pleasure to be here with you you and we're gonna get ready for pay stuff together that's really fun and I just want to say hi to all the good folks out there and really to thank world musashi for giving me a chance to do this and we're also you know we're all learning new technologies here and getting used to them so I'm just doing my bit to understand the this technology and to and to really send out a signal to the world and we we I guess we have to really thank Hashem for this wild time we have to think of Shem for the good and the bad we have to serve Him with with our own yetzer hara with our you know bad inclination and also with during bad times and our you know great shoe votes that were made during the Holocaust level and even now with with this plague with this maka we really have to service them as best we can and to do it by simcha as well so it's it's no laughing matter certainly it's it's no it's no joke to to have that to teach on a day like today where it's really a day of mourning but at the same time we're getting ready for Pesach and we have to get ourselves in the mood to feel that we're going to exodus out of this situation we're gonna we're gonna break out of this situation if you will so my name is saya sure I have the incredible scope of being the International spokesman for the Jewish community of Quran and from time to time get to teach for my sake and and and I do a weekly radio show you get to do some really neat stuff to move the the project of the Jewish people forward and I guess where the Jewish people are really really born as a people is in the splitting of the Red Sea in cream soup and it's it's a topic that I'm interested in creative because it's really one of the most dramatic events I like to think that that may be the most traumatic event in in Jewish history the traumatic traumatic the most traumatic things are when God reveals himself so the revelation of God at the splitting of the Red Sea was really unparalleled we really saw God's hands intervene in history for the Jewish people against our oppressors and maybe the only other time where we saw we've seen God's intervention many times but the but the great revelation was seen again I think in the six-day war in 1967 when God miraculously gave the Jewish people back our ancestral homeland our Heartland but we always go back to the splitting of the Red Sea we always go back to karate I'm tzuf as is really the the Jewish people are born as a nation I like to think that we come out one side of the sea as individuals a kind of group of individuals and on the other side would come out a nation we come out I'm Easter L because before we were just a fleam right we were slaves kind of referred to by our ethnicity which is Eve Lee on the other on the other side would become a messiah so so I want to ask a question for today's class which is very simple who splits the Red Sea who split the Red Sea and I wonder what your gut reaction is what you what you answered when I asked that question who split the Red Sea and I'm willing to bet that a large portion of you are gonna say Hashem and of course you're right and another portion of you is going to say next one been Amina dev which is the Prince of the tribe of Judah and he was the one who who bravely walked into the sea until his until almost his nose you need to say he was almost unable to breathe and then the sea split and those are certainly certainly true but what's fun is that the major ashame and other things that I want to add in today have a few other a few other takes on who split the Red Sea and I think this is going to get us into the mood certainly if Pesach but also of breaking out of the incredible limitations that have been imposed upon us and we have to follow those limitations but our neshama can't be broken in and enslaved by these limitations rather we have to you know let our spirits fly and use this this time as an opportunity for growth so I'm just gonna hit the the screenshare for a second so bear with me and I hope that you're seeing what I'm seeing and I'm looking right now at a chabad.org page and and I'm looking really at the first post look about this issue and it says Moses stretched out his hands a vehicle shade or a yam and then saw so much romaine is gonna stretch his hand over the sea Hashem is gonna blow a very powerful wind right a strong east wind all night Vyasa Mehta Yamaha and the the see he made the sea into dry land so on the simple level really Moshe is the actor and Hashem is the doer Hashem is splitting the Red Sea that's that's shot that's a shot that's the shot that we that the text tells us about but let's go a little bit into the Midrash I love this Midrash and this Midrash actually is into hilum and it's from Tehillim few Dollard 1:14 and in this in this Midrash it has a lot of interesting things that that that some you know and some maybe you haven't heard so let's do it together first thing is that did you know that there was there was a lot of politics there was a lot of politics on the Red Sea and you know the famously there were there were four groups who argued amongst one another a one group argued to fight with them with the Egyptians another one said just pray for God's sakes he does only time to pray another said let's go back to Egypt and another said let's just jump into the sea and commit suicide so everybody knows those kind of four groups but what you may not know is that there was also a fight between Jews about who was going to jump into the sea in order to in order to actually get it to split so the measure says under the puck I tell you who Dalek can show she agouti sir Liu Yan wen wen Benicia all came to the sea you were seeing me two commas aims they made a war with one another is a seventy deadly show now okay who is going to really go down to the sea make a killer session and I'll skip a little bit and it says vibing Amin oh man Benjamin said annia regilla you Dermot are near that freedom cancel on be kind enough to leave behind Coulomb action at law of an inverted Moses reminds me a little bit of of other bad situations in Jewish history like at the toughest moment we fight that's not the way to really do it but the Jewish people all wanted the honor of going in to the sea and and finally who went in hmm does a different majors we all know let's look at it here from a different source from Maseca SOTA which basically says Roberto myth that he says that they were all fighting amongst one another who's gonna go down until me talk show you um definitely Knights everybody was this thing this cuff at snacks on Benham Enid of Miami how about Maya much she given my mother autumn or used to he walked all the way until the water got his nose that's the face Midrash that that knocks on but Amina daav went in usually the way we understand it is that is that knocks on Ben Amina daav was went into the the sea fearlessly visa Vee the Egyptians right he was not afraid of the and and not afraid of the sea not afraid of the Egyptians but this Midrash says no actually it was about an honor it was the fight over the honor who would go down to the Red Sea first that was that's going to be a historic moment like who's gonna get off the the first lunar landing and who's gonna get to say the big you know phrase who's gonna be Armstrong so it's like not sure but I mean oh that was like I'm the I'm the proper person so that's a little bit different already of the take that instead of of it being a bravery of a battle it was also a kind of determination that not that Judah is the first tribe to that's supposed to go down okay so that's very interesting but let me go back to the text again and share with you which I think are the stuff that is I find to be so fascinating not this one this one okay let's look in the famous phrase hey Yamaha via nose we know that phrase because that's part of our what we say in the hollow I am Ravi Janos I hadn't ease of the Hathor right hi I'm Xavier nose so says the Midrash Martha ah what is it that the seesaw so the first thing is referring to what I was telling you about everybody wanted to honor Hashem everybody wanted to honor has gem and and the fight was about who would do a kiddush Hashem the seesaw that and it and it in it and it pulled back wow these Jews really wanted to do kiddush Hashem that's I mean they want to sanctify the name of God so I'm going to honor that but there is a different version and I guess this is the first point that I really wanted to get to the valve says the Midrash I want the see saw I don't know Chile itself you'll read Liam and I'll paraphrase a little bit it wasn't until the the burial coffin the the coffin not burial but the carried Ark of Joseph's bones came down to the sea idaho notion the seesaw this arc this coffin of joseph coming down towards it a ma cottage Bothwell god says yeah new siam me PA hannes mean haha Veera let the sea roll back from he who stepped back from the sin because it says by Joseph remember with mrs. Potiphar the original me to attack where mrs. Potiphar is improperly making advances towards Joseph Shamima it says now Joe survey on Asakusa he stepped he ran out here appear it was repelled and jumped out from that situation and therefore it's similar to the words huh Xavier knows so so just like Joseph recoiled and overcame his nature he overcame his nature which or human nature which is to go towards this attractive thing the sea says I too shall overcome my nature he overcame natural inclinations I too will overcome natural in inclinations and that's what God commands the sea to do me I'd gotta become who this the God yelled at the stem of a god me I'm super have God kind of got angry at the org or snapped at the red sea and it dried up all right so so that to me is is absolutely a beautiful Midrash and the way I like to tell it is well well who is it that really let me let me stop sharing for a second who is that really split the Red Sea was it you who does progeny knocks on Ben Amina devil or wasn't Joseph's bones which one is it what's the truth what happened down there and I think that you know the right Jewish answer right everybody you know the right Jewish answer the Jewish answer is if I ask you was it yo safe or was it not Sean who really split the Red Sea the answer is both and I won't be able to get in too deep into the this topic but I hope that you'll know you've all heard of the concept that there's really two mashiac energies there are two messianic energies in this world one messianic energy is is called mashiach ben Yosef and the other one is called me chef Ben dahveed and roughly the way that the Kabbalists explain it is that mashiac Ben Yossef is the infrastructural this-worldly not a spiritual but more a Tyrael Gila Redemption and then misshapen dahveed is more the spiritual content that fits into that's gula of the body first and then within that goes into that vessel the gula of the spirit so first you have for example a state of israel that's going to be reborn and then subsequently after we're kind of born then the spiritual energy is going to kind of come into the the Jewish people and down the line we're gonna build a bait to make - down the line we're all going to serve God enjoy down the line we're gonna believe in God so at the moment of the splitting of the Red Sea which is definitely a mushiya moment if there ever or wasn't this is the moment where we need some mushiya energy mushiya now right it's exactly that moment where there's the energy of Yosef and his bones which are the righteous energy of Joseph overcoming his own nature and also a bending nature in this material world to his will and then there is the masonic line of Judah which is the Masonic line of King David knocks Reuben amina dev is a progenitor of the Davidic line and so his Missy anak energy meanings a beta mag - energy serving God in song and really bringing the whole package together these two energies mix together and when these two energies mixed together Mashiach Ben Yossef Joseph's bones she ya betta feed max from but I mean it Devlin they come together they could split NEC nothing can stop these two energies when they come together and I'll just touch on just another proof for what I'm what I'm trying to say here which is that when these two energies come together nothing can stop them I'll give you a fantastic proof the Jewish people were about to enter the land of Israel they sent spies 12 spies now 10 of the spies brought back a negative report but two of the spies brought back a positive report yet somehow these two spies were able to overcome the majority of the other spies the ten other spies they survived the the the punishment that happened to those other spies they also went in of course I'm talking about Kalev Benny phone N and you know sure by noon they went into they stayed with the Jewish people for forty years in the desert then both of them these two original spies led the Jewish people into battle into the Land of Israel and were the conquerors of the Land of Israel together there's a famous speech that a monologue that that caliph Vanunu tells Joshua you know do you mean you went into the Land of Israel 45 years ago and now I'm 85 and I'm ready to go into every one I'm ready to inherit it just like God promised please give me the chance give me the command to go into into everyone why am I telling you this whole story because the do you have you ever wondered how could it be that these two men were able to overcome the other spies and the bad attitude of the Jewish people and were able to survive in the desert with them for forty years and then we're able as seemingly old men to come into the Land of Israel and conquer it from the Jewish people like what is their secret well their secret is maybe I propose to you that their secret is that that Kalev Manny Funes is also of the Davidic the progenitor of the Davidic line and announced that one of the first of the Davidic line and knock and that's Kalev Infonet and you're sure by noon is from the tribe of Ephraim the beloved kind of tribe of the Joseph line right the Joseph's son if I'm so basically you have a machine ben yosef energy coming together with a machine ben de vida energy and when these two energies mix nothing can stop these two spies from succeeding and then leading the Jewish people into victorious taking the land of Israel the victory in battle and spiritual victory of overcoming all the other spiritual challenges so so my proof to you is that when these two energies line up and at the Red Sea they line up together knocks from but I mean a dove and the bones of Joseph boom the Seas going to split that's not something that I found in in any major regime but I put together these two men regime of of national but Amina Dev and the bones of Joseph to come up with this understanding that really in those two energies when they come together they're really unstoppable okay so let's just review we had the obvious who split the Red Sea the obvious answer is gods with the Red Sea you know you you learnt that in kindergarten it's not tricky it says it right right in the book it says a blackened parchment easy enough to understand God's authority who was his agent well Shara Bey no fine but then the Midrash iam are gonna tell us that the Jews were arguing who would have the honor of going down first and in the midst of all that argument knocks Remenham Enid of you know cut through the bureaucracy and was able to jump into the Red Sea beautiful but then we took a different tack and we discussed knock shown but Amina dive being coupled with what we learned was the coming down to the to the seashore of the coffin of Yusef measures tells us that the sea recoiled from the from the coffin of Joseph because he overcame his nature with mrs. Potiphar so Vienna cicuta and so that split the Red Sea and then I put it together that maybe this these two separate mint regime one about next on but I mean enough and the other one about the bones of Joseph they can be brought together and understood as two energies that split the Red Sea mushiya bring yourself and mushiya bento feed good so that was a good review now we're not done we're not done because there's a few others there's a few other takes that I want to share with you and some of them are very beautiful let's go back to the text let's go back to the words of beshallach so one of the most strange verses in the Torah is this one where it says that there at the Red Sea they're in all heap of trouble right you have the the armies of Pharaoh coming at them everybody who still has slave mentality is like what do we need this for and they do what Jews do which is they yell out and usually what Jews do before we yell to God we yell at our leadership and everybody's like Moses what do we need this for and then Moses turns to God and he too praised and then God turns around to Moses and he says the most strange thing that that is very foreign to Jewish ears he says but you have seven will shed my teat sock a lie why do you cry out to me why should you cry out to me the bid it when they slammed Esau speak to the children of Israel and let them travel let me let me say it a different way stop talking to me just go go just go that's what God says to Moses don't don't don't don't spend your time praying right now it's go time it's go time but this is a verse that we as Jews kind of you know don't feel so comfortable with what do you mean don't pray we're in a heap of trouble and we turn to God you know you hear that all the time just turn to God turn to God we gotta pray got to pray but God says don't this is not prayer time this is go time but it's mysterious what does it really mean you know don't pray to God at this moment so my my sheep University Rebbe Rabbi Moshe DeVoe Tendler mission continue to give him a long days and strength god bless him for continued health and teaching all these years and past canning and what it would a great great man rabbi moshe of attender is and what is good it has been to learn with him I'll never forget what his shot in this verses it's so simple it's so elegant it's so beautiful and it's so easy to remember he says that God says to measure of a know Moshe much Arab a no why are you praying to me don't you know that you have the most powerful force in the world with you that most powerful force is all the Jewish people United and if there's a United Jewish people then all you have to do is go because it's go time you don't need anything else in this world because there is nothing more powerful than a United Jewish people it's not time to pray it's not time to contemplate it's just go time because you have this incredible force and that force is is the Jewish people unite it together and that's such a these are such a so simple and so elegant and so so easy to remember these this concept are just like when you have on Easter all together you could do anything you could do anything you could split the sea which is very improbable and yet you could do it because you have the Jewish people together and so the answer here is is if you think about it not very different than the other answer which is machine yourself in the ship and daveed when you have the combined energies the correct powerful spiritual energies of the Jewish people you can do anything you do anything so the the the version of Rabbi Tendler is who split the Red Sea the Jewish people together don't turn to God don't turn to God don't don't don't tarry in prayer because you have the most powerful thing together and that's that's a lesson to us we say this word a lot it's kind of around after disasters our dude but it is that it is indeed a powerful force and it is it seems like we have today like we're having right now this crisis which brings us together and I guess that's what at the Red Sea as well there was a crisis and they were brought together and so and so Hashem says to us when you come together you're very powerful people you could really do anything and I do believe that that if we work on this moment even though we are so separated into our little kind of rooms and our little houses in our you know we are standing together under God Keisha Caudill of Akkad will really be able to achieve anything even through this crisis okay so I don't need to review everything from the beginning we added another layer which is who split the Red Sea everybody I miss around together when are these girls United we could do everything but I'm not done yet I'm not done yet if you will I'd like to I'd like to go to yet another another another direction so so we're back to the text here and there was a few other versions of the Midrash I'm not gonna go through it now I want to go to a different Mahalo for a second a different way of looking at things and I want to go back to the story of Abraham of Rama V no and even before he was a ham lovino he was of rum he was Abram and he was a great preacher he had a ministry and God told him the first thing that God told him as the Caliban explains the first thing the first time that we meet of Rama V know the we meet Avram and God system left Lacock go to the Land of Israel therefore the Land of Israel and Abraham and Jewish peoplehood are inextricably linked and so Avraham of RAM is going to be Avraham and he's going to bring the Jewish people to the land and he's going to receive a promise from God to bring us to bring us the Land of Israel that will inherit the land of Israel now one of the most famous passages is about the breathe vein of tehreem breed Bay and of the covenant between the parts now I I think that is sometimes in Judaism we have these these sections that are so important and they're so weird we tend to skip over them we tend to kind of not delve too deeply into them because they're a little bit beyond their comprehension and kind of chalk it up to I don't know if I'll ever really fully understand this and breed men of tehreem is one of them and you know that breed been appearing the covenant between the parts is important but you just don't always understand the language exactly what it's trying to say so let me say it outside of the text and then we'll jump into the text basically Abraham asks for proof god how will I know that I will inherit the land and what what God says to Abraham he says okay I will I will there's really there's two promises that the promise to inherit the land and the promise to have a child who will continue the line of Abraham those are related things but in this case how will I know that I will inherit the land God says no problem I'll give you a proof and here's the proof here's the vision and this is going to be the covenant between the parts now there's different ways of understanding a certain word which probably means three the word three it's it's the word mr. lash is not always understood what what it means here but the simple most readily accepted version is that God says to Abraham I want you to take a three animals three types of animals three of these three types of animals and I want you to split them when I say split them I mean nose to tail I want you to split these animals nose to tail this'll go there's gonna be also two birds but I don't want you to split the birds but take the big animals and split them nose to tail and mattel you a little story about that on my final day is Shiva college rabbi crime angel we had a Bible final and Rabbi Shimon Rome likes to like to teach you stuff on the tests and you have to incorporate stuff that you learn on a test and answer questions and basically what we learned in that final final Bible class that I had in Shiva College was that in Ugaritic times one of the ways that you made a covenant with and with a business partner with somebody else is that you would split an animal and you would both walk between these parts either to say we are we are two separate parts but we're part of one whole or to say that's like the positive way or to say if any of us breaks this contract we should be split like this so splitting it an animal and walking between it is an understandable thing at Abraham's time at Ugaritic times but nine animals split side-to-side and the text says the text says lay them facing one another so now I've mentioned I mean have you ever spent some time thinking about this imagine nine beasts nine animals split nose-to-tail and you having to walk through that that's pretty gruesome right that's pretty gruesome there's a lot of blood and guts there that's nine animals think of big animals we're talking about I don't know we're talking about 15 feet worth of animals 20 feet worth of animals that's a it's a long I'm getting somewhere with it so bear with me all right so that's a long promenade of of animals of animal parts that you have to walk between and then God knocks Abraham out he kind of put some to sleep and then he tells him your children are going to be slaves in a land not theirs for 400 years and they're gonna come out with wealth and they're gonna come out with a strong arm and with wealth and he gives him what is he basically telling him he's giving him the vision of Egypt right of the Egyptian enslavement right we all understand that but let's go to the text itself for a second because I want I'm gonna show you something that I think is so so important so as I was saying to you before but your minute Hashem excuse me Abraham says to to God Vilma deny him but my ducky Russian how will I know a Shemin looking how I know if if I indeed will inherited so god system take the three animals and if the three threes and split them and then there's this famous part that the vulture comes down I'm not going to get into that now what I wanted to get to the next part Mejia Shemesh Laveau the Sun was setting the totem on a flower from in a deep sleep fell over Abraham Avram before I became Abraham vahini a man-crush crag dolana ferret Olaf if dread a deep tread and a darkness fell over him for Yamaha God says from ya da da da da da da da you shall certainly know he cared he is out of copper through hem for your children your seed will be a stranger stranger in a land not theirs they are doom and they'll serve them very new a time and they'll be subjugated Obama or China for hundred years for gamma to go I assure you do Donna know hey and I'm going to judge that nation that's gonna enslave your your children Valley then its tsuba when they leave they're gonna leave with great wealth that I vote okay says but you you're going to be buried and in a good ripe old age and they're not going to come here till the fourth generation fine that fourth generation by the way is Kalev menu Fernet according to Rashi here's the part that that is so important for us because remember the question that I'm asking today I'm asking the question of who split the Red Sea check this out via Shemesh bah the sunset Volta it covered over hi AVI nyah the net anew ashen and here comes a a smoke of a kiln oven so very smoky I saw one so an article about this just means a very thick white smoke so here he now sees a white smoke a deep smoke coming out of this chimney Villa P - and a fiery pillar Asha eval bein exodia Ella which passed between these parts so what does he sing he's seeing a pillar of smoke and a pill or a fire going between these parts which parts the parts of the animals that are laid out there right remember nine animals split head to toe it's a gruesome sight and suddenly he see is a pillar of fire and a pillar of smoke walking between them what is this thing well what he I suggest I offer to that what he was actually seeing was a prelude a YouTube clip a mini precision of the splitting of the Red Sea he saw he was told that the children he was told that his children would be enslaved in Egypt and then they're gonna leave and guess what here's what it's gonna look like it's gonna look like this it's gonna look like this and it's so hard to imagine how could you possibly imagine what the splitting of the of the Red Sea is gonna look like it's gonna look something like this there's going to be walls that are gonna be just awesome or inspiring walls like these split animals and then a pillar of fire and a pillar of smoke is going to be between walk between these things and then back to the text and he says by omekata shame at the vom bleeped that day Hashem made a covenant with a birth Abraham saying Moses are kinda xxx ahead it says oat minami-san but now God on the earth I gave your offspring this land from the river of Egypt maybe the Nile to the great river the river Euphrates and then I'm gonna give you the land of and the seven nations that you will inherit but basically going to I'm going to enslave your children and then they're going to be there for 400 years they're gonna be enslaved in Egypt are gonna be there for 400 years and then they're gonna come out and it's gonna look something like this and there's this like if you if you read it right you're like there was a dread and awe and an awesome sight and he saw it he saw the whole thing and now you understand what that whole story is about why would you split the animals and then why is there a pillar of fire and smoke oh he saw a vision of the splitting of the Red Sea that's what God gave him at that moment and he said to him right back to first principles you're going to be you're not only are you going to have offspring you're gonna have a nation and they're gonna be born in this minute at this birth canal will the nation come out on the other side the nation of Israel so so back to our original question who who split the Red Sea who split the Red Sea so in my mind it was it was God but it was the promise to Abraham it was the promise to Abraham that God may so many years before that and told him this is what its gonna look like I promise you this is what its gonna look like and so Abraham is and and and working having the merit to work in ever on the Jewish community of Quran which is the keepers of the tomb of the fours and mothers Mikayla we always go back to the principle of Abraham the person of Abraham and so in my mind Abraham is is one of the splitters is that is the original splitter of the of the Red Sea and let's let's put it all together because if you just put it all together it all makes such so much kind of sense Abraham is given a vision that his children will inherit the land of Israel and he will have offspring and he's told that they're going to be enslaved and they're gonna come out and this is what its gonna look like it's gonna look like this they get to and then fast forward to actually gypped they get to Egypt and and and they're at the sea and they realized it's a humongous moment and so they're they're battling for who's gonna have that great honor to be remembered as the person jumps into the sea nation' but Amina daav which is really a scion of King that he is the Messiah that that that that's saved as a Jewish people but that's not the full story the full story is actually there are two mushy ox that make it all happen and those machines are machines by yourself and mushy have been dahveed when those two energies come together then you have the power to split the Red Sea so you need a certain unity of the Jewish people to make it happen and the best energies of the Jewish people come forth you know to split the Red Sea so we have Abraham towards to to fast-forward to the Red Sea and you have not shown and Yosef Yosef because of righteousness that he overcame mrs. Potiphar's advances nächsten been a minute up with his courage and his forthright energy of of the honor of God of kiddush Hashem the cc's that the Jewish people are battling for the two honored God's name the sea splits it also sees that that there's this righteous man that overcomes nature you know safe the two energies come together and then the other version is what rabbi Tendler said which is much it's a collide the Jewish people are united you have them all together nothing is more powerful than that nothing is more powerful than that then when the Jewish people are united in in dread and also in joy of serving God wanting to honor God and that that is a powerful combination and the sea splits the sea splits and then it becomes forever a a sign for us the sea splitting itself first thing is non paralleled time of prophecy all the future is seen at that moment according to the Midrash shame and all the challenges and even the coronavirus and all these things he sees it all forward he sees the great challenges he sees the great challenges of the Jewish people and they walk through that sea and on the other side they come out of that sea and what do they do when they come out of that see what a Jewish people do when we have victory which is Nitze horn which comes from us being in eternal people which is I'm high net sack what are we doing the on the on the on the other side of the Red Sea we singing we do Sheeran which is also which is also net sock as in limits Emmys Marla dahveed the conductor we conduct song that is our victory our victory is our eternity is our eternal song and that's of course the Asya sheer osseous year as in the the future of the great Masonic period that we're hoping for and of course within the osseous year is the hope for a beta mukesh a third a promised third temple which is the time that we're living in today we're learning living in the era of the third temple says ben-gurion prophetically cool fat whitish lishi we're in the era of the of the third temple and we are approaching a time where that's going to be a reality let us hope and pray that this corona story which is taking lives and hurting so many people and is such a painful challenge to so many of us where we can't pray like we usually pray we can't have the people at the Pesach Seder the way the way we usually have it let us hope that that we're going to come out of this thing and see the period of the third beit sahm english come to fruition and I'll just finish up by saying that there is also a similarity between this challenging era and the original story of Egypt if you recall the original story of Egypt the Jewish people all had to go into their houses and outside was a plague the plague of the firstborn and inside our houses were all called to do a touch more Nimish and we're all called to mark our doors and then we're all called to really do chuhwa and to have our Pesach inside of our homes and and then when we come out we slaughter or that a Paschal Lamb the korban Pesach and then go towards the exit listen towards the splitting of the Red Sea meaning to say that would this time of great challenge is also potentially a time of great opportunity yes we're in our homes right now but this recession will come out will do that korban Pesach and come to a time of great gula I want to again thank miss Rafi for for hooking this up and Rabbi taragan for for ordering all this my friend Yakov Segal who is manning today's he's hosting me here on the zoom Facebook platform I want to thank you you know what I think really all of you up there and also that's right there's Yaakov I see him and I also want to thank rabbi rabbi Hillel van Lewin and rabbi throne Perez at mr.
