Yoel: Chapter 2 - Locusts Like Horses

this Tower class is brought to you by torahanytime.com welcome everyone we continue in the Navy UIL and I hope the wait was well worth it because we're going to be learning now a continuation of everyone's favorite subject and that is the subject of locust okay so I know you've been waiting the whole week but uh we finally have arrived okay we're in parag Bays plastic base the Navy with the thick cloud a ruffle is fog kishakar like the dawn paros alaharam spread on the mountains a mighty a numerous and mighty nation kamayo lonia there never was like it from the whole from the existence of the world there will never be again like it darvadar throughout the generations throughout all the years of generations so the Novi is comparing the the day of the coming of the locusts to a day of Darkness it describes it as dark from the vantage point of lack of light it's also a Cloudy and gloomy day right there two kinds of Darkness some darkness is just the absence of light but then you have a a a reality uh tangibility of darkness and that's cloudy through the mist and the thickness of the Dark Cloud and the way of the darkness is seen in the spreading of the grasshoppersalaharam like the dawn that spread on the mountain by boycare kenyasara Haram lasso too will be seen on the tops of the mountain sparkling and Shining from a distance and that is the amrava atsum that there never was okay the next plastic the fun of before it fire consumes what does that mean before the grasshound what fire yeah after the grasshop is finished doing what they're doing it looks similar to what would have happened to the vegetation had there been a fire so wiped out so it's uh what does it mean before it there is fire before the grasshopperses have the akharav and after a talahid the fire ablazes what is that is that literal is that allegorical kigani then her it's the fun of before the Grasshoppers came it was like the Garden of Eden the akharav and afterward midbar shimama desolate desert vegan Plato with no remnant let's see matsuda's David lefanov a the devastation will be so great as if a fire consumed the produce of the landlife before it came all and says if the fire burnt the produce akure afterway after it went meaning it's it is so all-consuming it's it looks as if the fire came and consumed everything and burnt everything down after it because if you would take a look at grass you wouldn't you wouldn't have thought that Locus could be so devastating so when they're done with it it looks like first the fire came through and then the fire finished it off the fun of before they came the Minnesota stuff it says then it was like the Garden of Eden Malaya full of produce mama and there were no remnants says they destroyed everything as a fire consumed before them and the flame after them weren't there Jews who ate Lopez I think would pay my name [Music] there's certain locusts that you're allowed to eat but these were like devastating locusts I don't know that they ate these type of locusts yeah okay they have the appearance like horses like Horsemen Kenny rootsan so shall they run what does that mean they have the appearance of horses Rashi says saying they're running they look like horses running let's see them album for the deeper meaning here says it describes the indian-like courses that come at the time of War to conquer the Earth foreign has inherent power to run with strength this is what it means they run like horses if a person rides on a horse then they're called a parash now it's like this horses could run fast but not as fast as if there's a person on them because a person's on them giddy up right the person he pushes the horse to maximize his running ability so kimara says Mario they run with power the same way a Horus has an independent ability to run power but if a person rides on the horse because then it's called a parash yards Hashem how are these grasshoppers like uh paresh because God is so to speak as a forcing them pressuring them to move it it's like the gazeera of God is riding on their backs okay fine so that's the first so two analogies number one they have the power of the horse number two they could run faster as if there's a rider number three plus okay it's like the sound of a chariot on the Mountaintop yurake done they dance they leap is like the sound of the flaming fire Kash um the straw can they consume straw in other words like the sound of a flame of fire consuming straw okay I'm awesome like a mighty people set up for battle let's see matsuda's David they leap on the tops of mountains they dance and they're running on the tops of mountains the sound is heard from afar it Compares them like the sound of a burning fire they eat eating straw it crackles very loud and um so the consuming Locus you heard the the eating the devouring the consuming it was like uh it was Audible like a mighty uh Nation say I guess the Navy's saying don't think oh there's a couple bugs are coming this is gonna be it's a frightful fearful um experience then the sound is Hurricane like a mighty nation says now for the first time we're comparing it to chariots the fact that all these locusts come together their sound is heard Kyle markovois like the sound of Chariots are Russia now the truth is chariots don't usually go to the Mountaintop him Iraq dushum these locusts um skip there kokomarkova it's like the sound of Chariots could coil now that it describes the matter itself it describes the sound that is heard through their activities that they destroy everything like fire consuming straw okay so it says the album now that it describe the sound of these Locus now it's going to describe the sound of the Locust descending the mountain headed to the people like um uh like the array of warfare like an army headed toward a city so this is a new sound the first sound is the sound of the locus themselves and now we describe the their sound as they descend toward the people mipana from before him Nations tremble kalpanem kibsu Farah all faces have gathered farur what's foreign because The Grasshoppers are compared to a nation who are as a raid for war so we describe the people also um we this we utilize a language that is a that is applicable for an um this is somewhat of an exaggeration now what does this mean their faces are black the faces of people are black like a pot you say that nowadays you lose your job you have to have a job first okay Zion they run like Warriors so what's this adding like Men of War they send the wolf this means they don't break they don't break rank like when you're in the olden days when you're head you see them lined up the soldiers together with their swords and their Shields and they March together as a line and they don't break orderly each man goes in his way what does that mean they will not impede their path let's see let's do this David yeah each one will go in his path which is designated for him they will not go in a crooked or a twisted path but rather each man will go in his designated path and nothing will get in their way they will not be diverted actually Rashi says in this expression of has no comparison in the Tanakh says malvin on possible now we're going to describe how they conquer the wall of the city first they will run to the wall like Mighty Warriors the nation will array their Warfare from the world and at the opening of the gate with they have to run with to run to the world to get to the wall and chase away the fighters then they need to know the techniques of war is foreign basically to fight a city you have to um run valiantly and get to the wall to fight off those who are opposed to you and you have to know the techniques of how to get up the wall so the US says they have your locusts have a military strategy they know how to attack I mean the same when you go to when whenever you're fighting Warfare you always have to have an Escape Route and you have to have a side path to Veer off in case it's not working out but um when it says each Locus goes in its path and it does not deviate it means it will not even have to take the uh the back route out this is no man pushes his brother each man in his path he will go um and on the sword they will fall but they won't be wounded so much time and effort to describe how the locusts are going to do what they have to do and we talk about the Marcos and Paro the devastation there was tremendous and there's a few seconds it's not so long why is this such a descriptive prophecy get the message together the devastate and it does look like you know if they're fire uh destroy the vegetation and nothing stands in their way you know we've still going to need to say everything you have to say just say the locusts are coming mm-hmm okay let's explore that let's see if we can so here in puzzle classes each man will not push his friend each man will go in his Pathak and upon the sword they will fall below if so they will not be wounded what does this means they will lie on the sword and they will not be wounded you're unstoppable I mean Unstoppable okay that's basically what he's saying Nothing's Gonna there's nothing nothing man can do to stop the devastation against the city they stride yeah they stride let's look in um let's look into back to the Target my own son for a moment it says they will fall on the sword that tell them says David translates it and they will not be wounded so the the attack of the Unison says like this to the place at their Sans Catelyn they're killed Mama now they don't take any money haha so what is that referring to that these Locus are sent and they go and they're killed and they don't get any money for it says they basically cast their life uh and they don't take any benefit of money but you're yashiku it sounds like they do this with abandon to fulfill the will of despite the on the the Fate that they're gonna they're going to endure okay they stride against the city they run against the wall babatomyal they go up in the houses in the windows they come like a ghanov Rashi but yeah what does it means a language of producing noise says foreign okay passages before him before them the earthquakes rashu shamayam the heavens Shake khadaru the Sun and the Moon they have darkened and even the Stars us have gathered in their glimmer what does this mean the fun of rugs the artists will be great Devastation in the world's Hearts as if the earthquake and as if the Sun and the Moon darkened and they didn't shine so in other words we're painting a very this is not just this is not a typical uh attack of locusts where people just don't have what to eat it sounds like the it's it's a devastating catastrophe that affects the whole atmosphere and the whole feel of uh the environment and it's as if there's just complete annihilation of all produce and all all of nature so to speak uh stops offering its contribution to to the environment let's see them album for a moment that's a good fun of rugza arrests the arrangement of the constellations will be nullified it will be divine from God alkane therefore Argus the shamayam trembles and the earthquakes God will arrange the constellations of ishaneo and change up in ah to sing like this there's a possible it says Argus foreign but here God is not going to act through the constellations of the heaven only a kazbrook himself first the Earth will tremble of the heavens will be nisaraj because everything will cease through hashem's Divine interference and Providence thank you so none of them is contrasting this to what happened in the time of ishaiah what's God going to do last possible God will Place forth his voice God will emit his voice before his army his Camp was very great those who do his word are powerful the day of God is great and very awesome um who could contain it who could bear it Rashi says God will emit his voice before he sends his army his Camp is very great if you don't improve let's just conclude with the map of because after this now the navi warns to do chuva and if I'm not mistaken we come to one of the half tourists of the year okay so the person you'll see the mountain now the Navy's explained the reason that the order of the constellations will cease because God gave his voice and he is visiting the matter with in his Divine Providence is before the Hell Comes Hashem announces it which is sent to destroy the land nevertheless someone who follows the word of Hashem then Hashem says to do chuva and to forsake your sin is stronger than God's and chase them out from the land okay so the according to them album this pasok actually is an introduction to the Navy's plan to do chuva and we'll begin that Bezos Hashem next time okay you've just experienced another Torah class brought to you byctoranytime.com
