Episode 7 BEYOND THE 7 with Rabbi Aaron Dovid Poston

[Music] hey good day folks welcome everybody to our seventh lesson seventh installment and beyond the seven live from Jerusalem with Rabbi Aaron David Poston who I am getting to know more and I so am grateful that he takes this time to teach us great lessons these lessons are getting taking us a little bit further than most I've been sharing with Benet knoweth it's a joy to hear it come out of Israel and out of Jerusalem especially from a learner rabbi such as him so without delay I'm just gonna jump right in and see how Rabbi is doing today rabbi postin so good of you to step I know it's like 11:30 p.m. there in Jerusalem and you just hang in there and stay up so that that you can share with the rest of the world we thank you thank you Dan and thank you for all the people who joined us tonight I want to thank you for for joining us what can I say sugar Tov have a great week from from Jerusalem for all those again who are far east of us you've already made Havdalah a long time ago for those in Europe you just made Havdalah like we did and for all those in America welcome aboard and for all those who are watching afterwards we thank you also so yeah I just wanted to I think take up where we left off last week there was I mentioned it may be controversial apparently there are some some people who have found what I mentioned the rabbi's name who's been accused of being a little bit off base rabbi manis Friedman and I think it's I think it's a big mistake that these people are accusing him of teaching put it this way when you take a clip just a small clip and you try to make something look very bad it's a big problem i loo just explained we're gonna be reading tonight a little bit from well a lot from the Messiah Charlene where we left off the very last statement was doing something for God and I mention you can't do anything for God suzay a core principle Judaism so I'm going to try to explain it I'm going to try my best to explain it in in simple terms I know this could be very Kabbalistic there's a book called the time you know if you can see it okay this is the Bible of Chabad it's basically all the Hasidim appreciate this deep Kabbalistic work explaining the way of God now there it seems to be I'm going to use this it's called the nefesh shyam it was put out around the same time a little bit later after the time you but the same generation and by refine vulajin who is the star student of the donig on that I'm gonna read a something from it's called the the scoring blog I'm gonna read a few paragraphs from it because he really explains that there's no difference there's no difference what the seceding did and I mentioned before I have nothing against classy name and neither does the ROM cow but there's a difference between people who are learning and have excelled let's say go beyond had gone beyond the letter of the law which is what the rum how explains is the Meador the character train of kasi dirt and so there's no difference let's say the difference is between let's say the leaders were well learn it and some of the followers who may some of them may not be as learned in and are found just out of wrote and that could be a problem we all agree in any in any situation okay so we're done when they oh so let me just show you this new volumes these new translations it's called the nefesh hot seemed tomb it's a two volume series okay and this is a this is where the the sparring blog is based on this new book that came out I don't know how new it I shouldn't say it's that new but I could tell you when it was put out in 2015 reason but we're talking about it was written 250 years ago and let me start let me let me just start a little bit going back why we're doing this we but this is called beyond the seven so beyond to me introduces the idea of being a seed a true cousin why because as the Rambam begins to explain that all of mankind is let's say must hear they're warned the order they're supposed to be careful and that is where the Mesilla see sure I'm actually begins the death of the just begins where you're careful and then he brings these steps again just to reiterate this is based on a Brice of Ruby PIMCO's benya here on how to eventually reach Ruocco - resurrection of the dead okay if you can you have to go back to the first six the first may be the introductory of this beyond the seven but since it starts the Rambam starts off with so here you have to be careful you were warned in the seven eventually what he does say is that someone who's accepted these laws because of the the revelation at Mount Sinai he's now called a hot seat so I believe this isn't you know where I'm going with this is that that the word classy was not used lightly it's someone who feels that they are again there's no such thing as a new religion somebody else's it's like some kind of new religion new fad this goes way back we could talk about Jethro perhaps before he converted even if he converted he was a righteous no hype of course we have people before that even Ruth before she converted she was known to be a righteous person and she her number the name of her name Ruth the value in the gamma tree is 606 because she accepted beyond the seven another 606 minces when she converted but she was a righteous Gentile keeping the seven before she converted so Ruth is 600 +7 6 13 and she's known to be a righteous Gentiles well before she converted so the idea of hussy dude can be written really misunderstood and that is where the ROM Kyle in the Mozilla shrine is basically as I left off last week he says maybe we'll also talk about it now that I really want to go back too far but he mentions that many pseudo Hassidim that's the term he uses have sullied the image of classy due to the eyes of the masses even intelligent people because they think that the whole concept of Cassie dude is based on empty ideas and trust me they're not it's the deepest of meat and according to what we'll understanding the nefesh a high and the difference between the de Tanya he basically according to this scoring blog he himself did not go into many sources okay whereas the nefesh time actually did and the sources are and we're gonna see tonight already back from the Gemara and and in the tour itself okay with that said I hope we have some clarity here and why we're doing this so this chapter 18 in the mozilla showering begins so that we're not in the beginning but we're a little bit further in where he mentions about these pseudo Hassidim do not realize that although some of the things are necessary for penitence to achieve folk Toman and some are appropriate measures for pay russia now what's the difference peru Shamar those become the Pharisees right they're the ones that separate themselves they're more concerned about not violating the negative commandments and that I hope by any many righteous Gentile watching this is already fully aware of what they are and is careful not to violate them but also to fulfill certain positive Commandments that would be more like a closet or we're going to discuss this let's keep reading so we mentioned that the pérouse shame they are the measures they take are in order to distance themselves from sin okay and and there's a comment here they explains that sometimes it's appropriate to deprive oneself somewhat in order to uproot haughtiness so horniest or something to stay away from one of the ideas that we brought over many many times is it's not seven specific laws there are seven categories and many laws underneath them and we spoke in the very beginning about thirty laws one of them I want to mention now just so we have clarity they're not all negative Commandments one of them in that list of thirty was the positive commandment to engage in the study of those parts of the Torah that are relevant to the North hikes how can the Noahide ever expect to fulfill at least minimum ly the seven as best they can before going on and trying to do other mitzvahs right character development is part of this being a truly moral person at least when we talked about the seven we're also saying anything that is logical right and is incumbent upon a a North High to fulfill as well so dname that means setting up a system of courts and justices you they have to make up their own laws and they have to be logical and and good for society and so basically when we talk about character development something to stay away from would be a hardness and any other will say disgusting behaviors and we're seeing a lot of that unfortunately in America right now I don't want to get into it because it really has absolutely nothing to do with race but I'm about to talk about perhaps the riots or the the protests are but ice actually spoke about this to a friend today what does it mean to be a victim right let's say somebody feels the victimhood it doesn't mean that that's bad the question is what do you do about it right so I thought the Jews are a good example we have used the victim card but what has it done for us what do we what do we do with it right so we say never again okay we want to educate other peoples not to be anti-semitic right we do everything we can to meet a cane to fix the world around us we take this idea of the fact that we were victims and we don't play the victim card and say you owe us right we are active participants in trying to make the world a better place so what could somebody use as a victim card reparations right even when Germany said we want to give you reparations we said whoa not so fast not so they took a lot of deliberation and government's discussion of how to accept such a thing so it's not as simple just to go out and say we are the victims and we will always be the victims and it's it doesn't achieve anything in fact what I see certain groups doing is they lower the bar so much that they never they never expect to get out of this victimhood okay they want to remain there and milk it for all it's God as a when I see so many and I'll just make sound political many conservative of afro-americans who are really striving you know whether it's the I think the I don't know what the names I'm sorry but somebody's in charge of the housing of the United States government he was a brain doctor right I think it's Carlson or something like that anyway he made something of himself Candace Owens speaks about it in much better terms than I ever could so I just hope that people could open their minds right to hear two sides and that's what we're going to discuss as well today hearing two sides between what we call the Cassie beam and the MS nagi my gave a very short synopsis in the last class had there was a lot of tension it started with the shabath heights V cults movement and then the fear amongst everyone else but at the same time there was a lot of ignorant people and people who learning and the disparity of the classes there was no question about it and I believe that I see being saved they really did I hope that everyone who's watching understands where I'm coming from they save jury and the nefesh a high end seems like he came as a response not that he was against class evening he was against certain aspects of class eating which we're going to talk about tonight which is I'll call it like an ignoramus cannot be a hussy okay that's what it says in perky a vote someone who and so for the seven the the people who are keeping the laws of North Hyde they should also understand I'm not promoting even though the Rambam says it's okay if you're already righteous to take them on additional mitzvahs I'm not promoting to take on additional missus I'm promoting to really get the seven concepts down well and go as deep and you know as deep as possible make them meaningful before you would even think of let's say keeping kosher right like how about the way I speak right what comes out of your mouth could be foreign or hide much more important than what you put into your mouth right however according to the deepest Kabbalistic concepts within Judaism that the the animals that are kosher happen to be non aggressive they're not current carnivorous they're not the ones that go around and eat the junk off the bottom of the ocean nor are they like vultures that go around and eat you know exactly these are more like domesticated tame calm and you really are what you eat okay so there are lessons to be learned so someone wants to work on their character it may help them to decide to eat kosher animals but really the work is not simply just eating kosher animals and therefore taming your your animal self but to work on your character in a real somatic way so as I met that underneath the seven laws are these moral moral objectives okay so going back into where we left off sorry so basically the idea of a rucious is to distance yourself from sin nevertheless casitas is not found founded upon these practices at all rather the best of these practices is worthy of complementing the practice of kasi dude now let me just read that comment casinos should for example be accompanied by the recitation of supplications as the ROM Howell discusses in the next chapter but if a seed ought to feel the pain of the Jewish people let's just say for a non Jew for all mankind and pray on their behalf or pray for their behalf so this is now talking about like positive actions however the essence of kasi dude itself is a very profound matter requiring intensive study in order to correctly understand it so you really have to study it and you have to study the whole Torah or at least the Torah that is relevant to you it is founded upon principles of immense wisdom and upon the absolute refinement of one's conduct the whole idea of missiles is charring is about working on your character and as such it is fitting for everyone who is wise of heart to pursue it so going back to something we mentioned in previous classes that the Rambam seems to classify two types of Bnei north one who is just very I'm gonna use the word wise I don't know another term to use but very into it he understands God from a purely you know investigative matter manner he understands it has to be creator but he hasn't fully yet bought into the idea of the revelation so he realizes that these seven laws are good so he's considered wise amongst the nations he may be an atheist I doubt it maybe he's agnostic at least and maybe believes in the almighty but he hasn't yet but bought the whole picture that there is a revelation there's a Torah and once someone accepts that that I would call the Rambam calls a Hassid and therefore he would also she would also get not just blessing in this world like the like the wise amongst the nations but someone who goes beyond and actually receives with the world to come which is unbelievable kindness for infinity okay so we already just mentioned someone who has this wise heart to pursue it for in fact only the wise can truly attain it so we mentioned her of cook there was a interesting idea one of your listeners passed this on to me and I spoke to someone who works in the rough cook Institute is actually the great-grandnephew of cook and the rough cook seemed to imply from the Rambam that the wise was the kava homer that he of course he gets the world to come so it sounded like at first reading perhaps it's a totally different reading than we've all read that it's the Hassid who actually is a much higher level and the wise is on a much lower level but what he seems to say is that it's only through thinking this is what God gave you think nobody's trying to brainwash you nobody's trying to just slip it under the rug and just say believe like some other religions we need you to think what's logical and and so really according to rabbi Dovid Cutrone it's both the wood roof cook was saying was you have to believe in God we have to believe in the revelation but don't stop thinking use your mind and that was what roof cook was speaking about okay I could be wrong and Cutrone could be wrong but that is where we're at today okay so this is the last statement on that paragraph as the stage as the sages of blessed memory same perky a vote that's ethics of our fathers chapter 2 mission of 5lo Haaretz a scene that an ignorant person not be a hasin it cannot be a practitioner of kasi dude so let me read this comment this does not mean that only one who has been blessed with exceptional wisdom can hope to serve Hashem with kasi dude actually anyone is capable of attaining this level of service keep in mind we're talking about serving a shed as long as he sincerely seeks wisdom and looks to be guided in the way of classy dude by those wiser than he and that is also why there's there's really no problem with the non Jew learning Torah from the Jews I don't want to get into it now I spoke about it before but if he goes on his own and tries to figure it out he's like I don't know as it's a hundred percent but he's likely to misinterpret it not understand not to come to a complete so one of the questions that was asked you mentioned through a a text someone asks aren't there special leaders of the North Head movement and there are there are very learn did non-jews I mentioned a few of them besides you read Peters name you had humble guy and and then the tea center rod Brian - Rueben Brian besides that pretty much I'm gonna say any rabbi who's teaching Torah right there may be a few that may don't have they don't have the sensitivity to speak directly to Gentiles but any pretty much pretty much I'm just saying it's not absolute pretty much any Torah scholar who's going to teach about what the Taurus has to say is a legitimate teacher but there are going to be those who are much more sensitive and will focus much more on and let's say like like we're doing here and other other people you have when you're when you're broadcasting that are more um I'm gonna say likeable right maybe we're likeable but more accessible and we are focusing a little bit more to a non-jewish audience did I finish that paragraph not so when the Mishnah excludes an unlearned person from being a cusine it first to one who has not sought wisdom and thinks he can attain a salute without it okay so that is a very important point I wonder if the rom-com points this out now there is another note okay I'm not sure where he points it out but let's go on so what then is authentic classy dude and he branches I mentioned in the last class I'm gonna talk about Agra more and broke out seventeen a which we work to do now and right after I read this paragraph now we shall explain this matter in an orderly fashion the route of kasi do is encapsulated by what our sages and a blessed memory said and this is what I would find controversial a middle those rabbis that are on rabbi manases case robbery Friedman's case is this statement at kazow in Bravo fortunate is he who toils in the Torah and who brings satisfaction to his creator what kind of satisfaction but this is a statement that needs deep analysis so before I do that I just want to mention when I brought those other books the nefesh a time and the Tanya why it's really not a problem this we're muted there's absolute truth that comes from Hashem perspective but we're in this world and then there's our perspective now our perspective can very much be wrong but it's not always wrong it's a little bits of pieces of that absolute truth so this is where controversy enters because the concept of simsim is how do we view this infinite thing entity we are finite how can a finite being ever comprehend or begin to understand that which is infinite so we have miss aura we have tradition that tries to explain it we can never really give satisfactory to a Shem but that is seemingly what we're supposed to do I'll just reiterate what we left off last week a son relates to his father his father is cold he's in a room and yes it's probably a little bit too cold so the father implies that it's cold so what is the son do the son has a choice he could just give the father the the remote control and say okay that turneth eat skin huh you're cold turn up T the Sun could turn up the heat for him or you can go beyond and say I understand what my father needs he's cold so not only am I gonna turn to heat but then I'm going to get him a blanket and then I'm going to serve him tea right with a smile now that's called fussy do because going beyond the letter of the law you already know what the what God 1 so let's say the father the father well you know already know what the father wants and he doesn't even have to say in a second time he doesn't have to explicitly say more words pretty once right yeah of course you would like the blanket of course he would like a hot cup of tea but all he asked you was well it's a little cold in here you and your own decided a few things right so you want to give them the shalat the the control or you want to turn up the heat you want to satisfy him so that is where we're at to discuss this point is in the Gemara it's in gomorrah bravo 17 8 and see we're not gonna get to the swarm blog yet okay so my Roger sheave always said there's nothing you can do for a sham but yet the round Colony was big on the rom-com wouldn't need to explain this so when I read the Gomorrah and I said wow this I think this is really something that would interest you guys because it's about Joel Joel by the way if he existed he was a non Jew who wrote the book of Job Moses wrote the book of Job so if you didn't come out learning anything here at least you learned one thing who wrote Joe and according to some it was not even a real figure he never existed but it was a philosophical work that Moses wrote as a result of his own question that he asked God show me your glory when when Moses says show me your glory what he was really asking why do bad things happen to good people why do good why do bad people prosper why do good people suffer you want to ask question ya rabbi because I have heard a rabbi share before that you know when you start reading the book of Job and the description of the lands and and all the details that are in there that he was partners with his friends that were part of a conglomerate that was a distant relationship to the family of Abraham I think even it says there was a man who lived it was at the Land of Oz and all these connections have one rabbi I've heard really brought it out that it was an agreed group that agreed to look after themselves as bad winds once did tribal people and they would come to each other's aid and they had an understandable honorable group that was between the time of Abraham and actually Moses but the story was renowned and Moses brought it together I heard to share with the people while they were still in Egypt is that true it's all possible like I said there are different opinions whether if he really existed he existed from the time of Abraham through till Noah till it I'm sorry till Moses because the measure says that he was one of the three one of the three advisors to Pharaoh ok Pharaoh didn't know what to do about the Jewish solution right of the caller like in Germany Nazi Germany a maximum that they had a final solution for the Jewish problem so bilam the one who says throw the baby males into the river right - now river and kill them and as measure for measure of course he was killed in the end the job let the sub ejector Jethro was also one of the advisors and in protest he ran away he felt this was unfair and to protest openly will you what do you say yeah it's you're describing your death sentence so he protested in a way that was certainly valid he he said no I'm not for this and he ran away and so that Jethro ends up what marrying his daughter off to Moshe ok becoming a righteous convert but his biggest I'm not saying his biggest reward but his own children his own great great grandchildren sat on the same Hedren so he's old measure for measure he was for justice he was into justice and as a result his own children's have insane Ejim and what a job do apparently the measure says that he would remain silent he didn't protest he didn't agree but as they say sometimes that being silent is like like agreement and as a result his punishment was he was caused to scream out because of his silence which was wrong so the punishment was the you saw reme was the extreme pains seeming punishment they weren't punishment we'll see hopefully surely there was issues that had to be worked out over there with with jobs so that's what I'm gonna go with tonight so let me just go to the Gemara it mentions about this particularly Gomorrah discusses the different tongue Talmudic sages what they would say when they finish their Amida when they finished their silence - right and prayer and after that it brings a side statement of what Rubio cannot would say whenever he finished the book of Job so by the way when we finish a whole mastectomy which were 36 of them or finished an entire book of the of the Torah of the Tanakh and in the way the rebuking I did in other words he studied every letter and every word and when deep he would make a big party okay it's a big deal so he would mention these words I'll just say it in English although the Hebrew is very you know what I'll say faux okay let me read it in English first a person will ultimately die and an atom will ultimately be slaughtered and all are destined to death now this sounds very gruesome in and depressing we'll see that it's not but rather happy is he who grew up in Torah whose labor is in Torah and these are the words and who gives pleasure to his creator how can you give pleasure to your Creator who grew up with a good name and took leave of this world with a good name and such a person lived his life fully about him Solomon and said in Ecclesiastes 7 1 a good name is better than fine oil and the day of death is better than the devil's birth so basically listen Amara is talking about good deeds your your your fulfillment of midst --is or kind acts which I mentioned from the very beginning this is what you banette is all about so accompanying all of our tested projects we want people to learn about s it and that's another reason why I chose beyond the 7 because we're going to find out the root of Hussey jute is really about tested which I hope nobody stones me for this it's about doing s it fresh M Sam doesn't need anything from you yeah this is all about somehow satisfying him doing it for you not for yourself doing it for him what does he mean okay I'm gonna get myself in trouble but nobody can stall me this is the Gemara okay rabbi that's angelic if you know it's really truly angelic I mean when you think about doing Hesed deeds of kindness acts of loving-kindness I mean your being an extension you know and and I just I saw that when I when I researched your your background before we ever I just this guy's doing just kind work that's all he's about thank you I appreciate it well I hope that other people will and just follow my lead before I go into this I just want to mention there's a well-known statement about the tablets you have five Commandments on each of the two tablets that were given to us which we call the Ten Commandments with ten statements so it's well known that the first five have to do with the connections the myths looked between man and God and the second set is between man and man now you can look at them and see them but you have to ask this question rabbi Poston if that's true what are you doing number five it's on the first set of tablets right it was number six I got it but it's number five honor your father and your mother what does that have to do with between me and God okay if anybody has any questions but in the meantime answers but let's say like this I know there are people that have very dysfunctional relationships with their parents I get I understand but there's like Rabbi Kaufman mentions there's no test that you didn't get that you can't handle you can get beyond it which kind of relates a little bit back to these riots right the beyond obviously protesting is not only praiseworthy and legal but it's the right okay we're not talking about protesting okay we're talking about horrible crimes being committed so basically how do you relate to a sham hopefully you had a father in your house right I know this is a big problem for in today's day and age some people don't have a father in the house where if they do some have two mothers or two fathers I mean there's some real issues going on but I don't want to even go into but let's just say a lot of people do have dysfunctional families but the main idea is that hopefully we realize that our parents gave us life we have to have an attitude of gratitude for whatever they gave us hopefully it was a warm environment with a roof over our heads with delicious food you know but it wasn't always right some people do not have that comfort I got it okay the earth this is what I call the Trinity in Judaism the Holy Trinity in Judaism an has three partners not God I want I want everyone to understand that the name Adam ad olive Dollard men okay is the game a tree of 45 okay right Aleph is one dialed is for man is 40 so you have 45 how is there three parts in man first of all the woman the man gives when he inseminates the senate it's called he's giving over the white part and that goes to our teeth and our bones and the female is the red part and that goes to the flesh and the the skin and the god Hashem gives the spirit okay that's why we have this Trinity now look at the name man it's Adam is 45 the word mother and father actually equals 44 so you have off which is one Aleph and Beth which is two which is three altogether and then you have aim which is Olive men which is 41 so 41 and three is 44 and then you have the olive left over the olive is one it's always referring to a Shem so you have Adam Adam right you have the full 45 but the idea that a shed even the olive is a letter that's made up of three other letters you have a love on its side and then you have these two yards per protruding out from the top of the bottom so you're this 10 to yours that's 20 and the other six God's youth hang and love and egg is the hamachi of 26 so within all this framework man so we have an attitude of gratitude towards our human parent right the physical life they gave us an opportunity so we're grateful to them is to show gratitude and that's part of the idea of keeping out the aim but Hashem with without the spear he gave us the spirit and for that we're also grateful for so why is this the fifth mitzvah of honoring your father mother in the category between you and God because God gave us these human parents so we can understand what it means that parents that gratitude every time they changed our diapers every time they they gave us our lunchbox on the way to school every time they made sure that we did early finished her homework which was good for us right that we didn't eat too much candy whatever would they tuck this in a bed at night right they sacrificed you know a parent sacrificed a tremendous amount for his children for their children so in with a mother could just imagine nine months carrying it's must be very uncomfortable forget about painful at the end right very so there's a lot of sacrifice that the parents do for their children but we that's we call the Holy Trinity in Judaism that's three partners in man not God I guess somebody along the line got a mistake somewhere but okay we're not gonna go there okay why are we talking about that so we always go off on these tangents okay so the the Hebrews like rebuking on kiha famous science a bird that you whenever he drove joke around with finished this book called job armor hockey that's what he said so Adam the moose the end of man is to die which sounds very morbid so foolish PETA the end of an animal is to be slaughtered a colon ISA hey mom do hear the words because we're gonna discuss these words well everybody both man and animal it's for death they are standing on D ash rainy should go to the Torah remember I mentioned that job was not was a non Jew everyone agrees with that if he existed right he was a non Jew and when when so this applies I think to every buddy this is I think why I'm discussing with you not just because of these words specifically that we said that you're going to give satisfaction to your Creator which we're going to get to very shortly but because it was also a non Jew and in non Jew as I mentioned has an obligation to engage in the study of those parts of the Talmud that we sorry of the Torah that relates to that the North had lost so I shrink meet happier fortunate is michiga D'Amato who's growing who grew in Torah and the Armel of matura and toiling in Torah the I say novice roughly Osram and he makes or creates something satisfactory it's interesting knocketh Ruach to his creator now I'm just mentioning this is all coming down to my seem tow theme it's all coming down to what we call positive actions everyone agrees that's what it's talking about the God though be shame told and if you grow growing is a it goes the stages if you're growing with a positive name meaning what does it mean to have a good name that people appreciate you people like you nobody's afraid to walk across the street when you're coming down the street and greet you it with open arms so to speak I know today's coronavirus day we don't nobody's hugging anybody but people are affectionate warm right the NIF to be shamed Taubman olam and when god forbid or obviously it's a part of life when someone passes on they still have with that mischenko right it's only at the end you really know if someone is true right because they were nice in there or good in their youth doesn't mean they're gonna finalize their their term here on earth with a good name but someone who keeps it all along that's a good thing and regarding that that's what King Solomon said in Co Hellas Ecclesiastes chapter 7 verse mourn toe Seamus chavin toe a good name is better than good oil the young I'm not this myoma Hill Vado and the day of his death is greater or better then the Davis birth okay so again what we're really concerned about is the actual source right what does it mean to give pleasure to your Creator now this is based on a verse in numbers chapter 15 verse 7 so this is regarding offerings but it's not only here there's many places it talks about this idea that you should bring a satisfying aroma to a Shem what he needs a he needs he needs our offerings he needs our sacrifices of course not so this is where the oral torah is so kirtan and you have to understand what is going on here now this is where I wanted to bring in the this quote from the sparring blood of the nefesh sahayam so everyone understands that yes there may be and there was almost like a civil war to a certain extent in philosophy between the early casillases religion see don't say that okay these things happen talking about the controversial things okay and there was some infighting okay there was some harsh words said then and hopefully by now those words are unnecessary and this is where I want to bring it to the point that a lot of people have grown through this dark period of Jewish history and I really want to read these words because they think it's really three paragraphs so bear with this is the very end of this sparring blog on this nefesh of high and which I mentioned came out as from a student of the donnagon time of illusion and it seemed like it was going up against the Bala Tanya the other book I have this is the Bible of Habad of kasi good okay it seems the wait to hear this this is just the end after fully absorbing the fact that the philosophical out in relation to the sim some concepts in tune is a very Kabbalistic term that what did a sham do who's all infinite to be able to create this finite world which is our dilemma how do we understand - em the concept of the Vilna Gaon comma the grip Higham comma the the ball Tanya and the Hasidic world are identical absolutely identical the genius of rope Heinz presentation in nefesh Shaheen can then be clearly seen the Hasidic works of his day including the same for about time to say for Tanya barely quoted their sources in contrast when Ryan presents his ideas in general the concept of Simpson the particular ideas which at the time were seen by many to be uniquely Hasidic ideas right as if I mentioned before some people think it was like a new revelation no he frames them in the context of extensive quotations from and references to traditional Jewish sources none of it's new but bro Hashem it was said in a way for the masses to be able to to get as mentioned above he even uses many similar expressions and sentences to those appearing in the Hasidic works of his day he is demonstrating that there's no scope for anyone to suggest that there's a fundamental difference between the formal outlook of the Hasidic movement and that of mainstream Judaism and that the paths for serving God of both the Hasina and the miss Nadine that means the the ones are against the casino in the beginning are fundamentally the same and a derived from the same Torah and the same miss aura the same transmission all the way back to Mount Sinai therefore against the historic backdrop of some who erroneously thought that the new Hasidic movement had blazed a new trail in Judaism and were using the inspiring Hasidic presentation of these concepts to compromise allaha now this was one of the main concerns and perhaps came to the more learning it was really not necessary a concern but for the masses who were already ignorant to begin with and attach themselves to raise themselves up good it could it could lead to compromising Aloha Sourav Hyams key message is there's no basis for anyone to blend these concepts out of their true concept context of mainstream Judaism and as a result there's no basis for them to license how love did compromise in any way whatsoever it's fascinating to note the rapine was not alone in this quest to highlight the potential pitfalls of halakha compromise resulting from an attempt to get closer to God he was joined by some of the establishment Hasidic figures who express themselves in a very similar way furthermore it's inconceivable it's not even possible to think the leaders of the Pacific movement such as the ballot anja which is the one who wrote the Tanya would have sanctioned any form of Halawa compromise because after all he is the author of the famous of court they are the Shogun are of harav it's basically it's a widely widely respected and accepted halakha clerk it's basically it's not the kids Ashoka Nara but it's a condensed version of the great treatise of reveals with Cairo called the show Canara it made halakha except accessible to every everybody and you know even did not so learning so he was not and the leaders were not interested at all in in downgrading hahhaha the unders the last paragraph the underlying principle guiding refines presentation in Nephi sahayam reflects the position of this master the famous donnagon that as the Kabbalah is an intrinsic part of the Torah it cannot be any it cannot be that anything derived from it can prescribe any action which contradicts were is inconsistent with the Torah any directive derived from the Kabbalah which contravenes the Torah and I love practice must therefore be myth a misunderstanding of Kabbalah there's no way that Kabbalah can go against the halacha we're talking about ribs Shimon bar Yohai you know the response who are and all these other tonight sources authors were the sources for all the other in in Kabbalah and they're just in addition the print this principle was explicitly highlighted by some of the Hasidic masters who were also clearly objecting to the same phenomenon of Halawa compromise on the periphery of the Hasidic world there were high was it be objective okay now I just want to hang in there the last paragraphs about six lines the outcome of all the above is that because of her of hyams historic motivation to write the Natasha Chaya he has left us with a remarkable work a motivational framework of how a person is to view and still thoughts optically interact with the world which substantiates every statement and makes bi-weekly threat referencing many traditional Jewish sources in general and Kabbalistic sources in particular as a result this is just a you know a plug for the book but it's really about the book itself not just this new edition itself is a unique gateway into a highly unstructured world of Kabbalah is tremendous portal through which a genuine introduction to the world of Kabbalah and his deeper meaning of the Torah has been made accessible to one and all this last line made the study of nefesh Shekinah Andrew Hines Torah bring a true conscious awareness of unity in the Jewish world and this is what I'm praying for because the the idea that r- Friedman is somehow off is like a ridiculous comment of course if you just listen to one minute you would take it up context like here if I tell you listen we're gonna make God happy we're gonna do things to make God happy it sounds ridiculous so when I put it in context they were talking about from our view not from the absolute truth there's nothing you can do to change or improve God but it's all about you and what you can do to improve yourself because that's what your life is really all about and with that introduction I want to go into a few of the ideas in the commentary on this particular Gemara now I hope that people understand that I use the text a lot and I don't know where to start I want to talk about the been yellowed I see I'm already close to an hour I really want to do to get ben yehuda first it's interesting much time as you need rabbi okay it's so interesting that you mentioned that job being perhaps at the time of Abraham because the Daniel duh I told you is a great Kabbalistic sage from Iraq the Jewish sage 150 years ago he's going to tell us about reincarnation and that job in his previous lifetime was Abraham's father Terah who worshiped idols and in this world when he lived in this world he was purely righteous but he had to pay for his past deeds okay so let's begin to read a little bit if that's interesting to anybody let's hear so the baby of that quotes the Gomorrah that says whenever yolk ravioli not finished the the book of Job he would read he would say these words so this is how he always begins near least via the Seattle - Maya with God's help I will explain the reason for the words that rebuking on uses after saying after reading and learning joke because it's well known that job was a complete he was really great psychic he was really a great righteous person but he was he received these asourian very difficult ones because of what they call Gil guru Xiang because of the previous life Shu gilgul tarik he was a reincarnation of Terra who worshiped idols therefore on account of his soul that it's the same souls Tara this is why he received these these truths tribulations these trials and tribulations now I won't explain and I don't want to go there okay anyway so he quotes the Ben your dark clothes the al-sheikh on a verse a chapter in job 32 verse 2 and mentioning mention Lucas his wrath flared up against job for judging himself more righteous than God and his wrath flared up against his three friends because they had not found the proper response and had condemned job remember if you read I suggest everyone read it with commentary with Jewish commentary that job was experiencing death of family members loss of such amount of wealth and what else are his friends going to think but you make a fresh Bonin efforts you have to take an accounting of your soul and figure out what you did wrong I mean this is really what Moses himself asked from God why do good people suffer right and you don't always come and say in the vineyard odds gonna say this you don't always say well you because you're a sinner it's not always the case and in state in fact we know this was not the case with Joe and now in chapter 42 verses 16 and 17 after this job lived this is the very end the last two verses job lived 140 years now if he was a sinner he would have died much earlier he would have also died it completely what's the word impoverished but he not only gained everything back he even had more family than he had earlier everything was replayed it says he lived 140 years and he saw his children's children to the fourth generation four generations so he lived a long life then job died and old and satisfied this is gonna be the Hebrew words wanna see old and satisfied in Hebrew it says of Cain the sub Vega young mean so they is the same word but using satisfying Hashem he's satisfied with years okay so they clearly Creek are the benyard that continues and he says that dykey return although Marsh in the gooferz should be giggles there they met who hired Sadiq the googles that the truth is that yes he had been totally righteous he really was totally righteous in this world and you can learn from this you mother Adam bina the man should use his noggin is the ability to understand that if he sees somebody with a very difficult life very difficult it seems like a punishment you know what if he's inside the gum war he shouldn't think he's a completely righteous person he shouldn't think that he's violating any of the character traits right but rather he should think it's actually placed the reason for all the suffering is on a previous previous life now I said I didn't want to speak about it but I did I kind of want to fill the idea of fill in some ideas where there's two verses that seem to contradict each other one verse says that person will not die on account of his father sins another verse implies that a person will be held accountable for his father's sins you know I I don't have the verses in front of me but we will take this up next and fourth generation and yeah and there Ezekiel then talks about the sins being on yeah on super on the person themselves so these Kabbalists the vineyard dot specifically many other people explain that this is not talking about a father-son relationship first of all let's start like this if you know in the simple shot it is right that it's you what's the difference one is where you continue in the footsteps of your father then you will be held accountable because Hashem is patient right a Shem doesn't take out his anger on the father because he's hoping expecting that the person does true ver then the next generation continues in the father's footsteps of acting no I'm not just Lee so then he will be held accountable and he'll face carrying the father's punishment as well media will be punished more severely than if it was just him because he had an opportunity that's one idea so the other one is that what about the one who is doesn't suffer that's because he does not continue in his father's footsteps so that would be the clear way to understand the contradiction it's not a contradiction at all but on a more Kabbalistic level the way the Benny are done or the Kabbalists explained we're not talking at a father-son relationship we're talking about my previous life my soul's considered my father the life I'm living now is considered the son so again the same idea am i following in the same footsteps as I did in my previous life right if I am then I will be punished and if I don't that means I have secured a path that will not be punished because I've gotten out of that bad track Ezekiel says the soul that sins shall die yes so here so the so to with job so remember it says what Rob York and I would say the end of man so what is he really saying at the end he says everything all both man and animal are destined for death didn't earth say that the end of man is death and then it goes back and read after that said that the animal is for slaughtering and then it says everyone is destined for death means like this is what he means that even those who already dead they're going to experience another death once they are um Dean um demons standing again that they will come to a new incarnation in order to fix whatever took place in their past and they will die a second time that's what it means by saying in the beginning so father mummy the mood the end of man is to die and everybody all are standing to die why didn't need to be said twice so then he says another reason because at the very end of job which we just read in chapter 42 verse 17 that he was as a cane the sylvania mean she was an old man so I want you to look also this was spoken about these same words pretty much are used by Abraham where they have it here somewhere yes in Genesis 25 8 I just came finding my source for it but I'm pretty sure that's where it is yeah would you like me to read it and just want to make sure it's really what I said it was it is Genesis 25 8 you go ahead yeah and Abraham expired and died in a good old age an old man full of years and was gathered to his people okay so basically the translation I had not read the Hebrew and abiram expired and died a good age a good old age mature and content so in Hebrew it's the saber tava sup came to severe the same words used by Joe zof Cain the severe so there you mean but okay to find my place again here we are well it doesn't say y'all me actually no I'm sorry it says yummy no what is y'all mean it means day so the the benya dasa shouldn't have said salvation I mean why does it say why does he use the word day does everyone with us he wants to say like this and and my students know this because even though they're not Jewish many of my students many my sons are Jewish but the ones who are the Benina they say modani in the morning they've accepted upon themselves to say I'm grateful to a sham for returning my soul every morning unbelievable so what is it that we experience on a daily basis we experience a part of death when we go to sleep there's a little bit of death so he says why does it say so there you mean a satisfactory of days well you know we would just interpret that as life for years but he doesn't use the word years he uses the word things we're talking about motion of the wrote this or you know the Tanakh I saying you know other than Co y'all the young yesh lach I'm kinda sheet every single day a person has a new life we are born again every single day if neots mom each day is a day is a whole new life on its own because every single night when we go to sleep a part of our soul leaves from us from within us and we are considered dead and then we come back and we were given life every single morning that's why we make another breath in the morning at the right marks your initial most of Gary may seem that God returns the soul to the dead corpses okay we say that every morning does we actually feel that way so every single day we're giving a new chance so it's not just whenever I spoke about earlier about incarnations but every single day we have a new more incarnation and we should really feel that way because not every wakes up in the morning we should be feel like extremely extremely grateful well that's that that is truly living though rabbi what you're saying truly living yeah and he says visa if you're Misbah hi other that's why the real counting of the life of man it's thinning to divide them into days not ears that's why it says so they're yummy and he was satisfied in these days okay so there's a really good stuff I don't even know where to go there's just too much I want to you know the truth is I can continue I can go continue a little bit now and then we continue this start off next week with it I'll just continue to much good stuff and I know that there was never enough time to do it all but it's just too delicious to skip over so I'm gonna complete well tom tom is taste and we're discussing the the taste of the tour the zest some of the Barabbas see this is why he placed his words when he finished with Tom but rub Jochen on when he finished the book of Job because we just said he was sad right in the book itself in the safer of job it says he was so there you mean he was satisfied in his days self a dump the moose that he says the end of man is to die so and then he says if that's the case then why would he say I Colin Lisa um Dean that everything is standing to die you already said it so he you've worked yourself in a corner I think yeah because there's too much here so far than the moose mr. Ikari charlyk bought like a bird the truth is the end of man is the main death the prime death is to go into the into the into the tomb besides the me seeker eat because I'm sure La Mesa dying aside from this prime death all of his life shallow ma to a dying he didn't die but rather when he was sleeping Lamesa Shoshana hey mom Dean it's the Mesa it's the death of every single night you go to sleep that is what we're you're destined for now he says even the word Adam if you take the letters I'll live Dollard men and you take the letter that's right after it so right after Aleph is a bet after a dollar is a hay and after the members are none so he says that's Bohen now I'm not really sure where he's going this because he says it relates to death but Bowen is the big thumb on the what he called the thumb or the one the toe now the thumb is called gödel I just want to explain something about when we say the Sh'ma okay when we say the Shema we take our hand then we put it over our eyes these four fingers that we're saying God is one were unifying God these four fingers are gonna have to actually represent the 70 nations there's four prime kingdoms right that's we call it Babylon Persia Greece and Rome they're all going in one direction the Jew is the godo the great one and they're going in an opposite direction that everyone else okay so we're unifying a Shem we're just remembering that but this is called the godo the godõs the great one and that represents the Jew going in different directions as a verse that says that the Jewish people are a nation that dwells alone so the Jewish people are alone we're not really with the 70 nations okay in the direction they're going in so the word Bohan is the big toe or the big thumb and he says I'm not really sure understanding completely but he relates us to a meddra somehow the word Bohan relates to death so he says that's actually hinted in the word man itself as we just said the second letter is called Oh Co shield so the letter that comes right after it is this Bohen fine so he says how's it hinted in man because we just said ashram Misha guide the Bottari happy is the one who's gold L batura who's growing into a great in Torah as if to say lemundo be tourists of they've lo agra doula it's the it's the learning of the Torah which is the cause for him to become great so you've heard me already Express how you could be Jewish I think we discussed that right Jewish so even my non-jewish students same mode that I mean now even the word modani is saying I'm a Jew I am admitting I am Modell from the word Yehuda it's the same root because you can be a non Jew but affiliate so much with the Jewish clause of the Jewish mission of the Jewish nation and still not be part of the Israelite nation itself to conversion but through taking the Torah which we call the Torah of Israel right and the God of Israel upon yourself you are basically Jew ish you accepted me the mouthfuls of lovin right the Mushaf is coming through Yehuda okay we discussed that and not only that the impose their loan it's got a blown it rush elbow one would not become horny nor Nick sorry no negligence in this but rather he these are the key words Oh Dan knew I said knock you up leo throat but rather you would what you would do and you try to bring satisfaction to your Creator again what does that mean knock not you up what is not that's rough it's interesting novice is like some kind of satisfaction ruoff is a spirit some kind of satisfactory spirit and he says he is a cutter Ahmet Tajin Barua because involving yourself in Torah fixes your spirit whatever that means your soul right even the so itself when God gave Adam he breathed into him he gave him this rule but guess what the the the the targum oculus translates into Aramaic this breath of life that God gave in terms called the speaking spirit what we do at or is something we speak when when you read it you say it out loud okay and you put it into practice of course but anyway anyone who involves themselves in Torah and we already said they non-jew who's already a Ben Noah it's a mitzvah to at least involve yourself in the seven for sure and if you go I'll call up beyond whatever that means take them on a vertical meaning go deep into the seven he can become like a lady as we said and he's like the kadosh kadosh e mama SH holy of holies such a Sadiq such a righteous person who's giving himself over like King David to to gods keeping and God will take care of him the god of a shame to all the Nifty be shame to-- so he constantly is growing in a good name and he leaves this world eventually with a good name so then there's this gomorrah and gomorrah suka 53 a in in the temple time we had the elders did the really old ones trust me would dance and sing in front of everybody during Sukkot they had such a festivity the whole world would come and watch these old guys juggling and I don't know flame throwers and juggling with fire and doing somersaults and they would while they were singing this is what they would say happy is our youth as we did not sin then that did not embarrass our old age those are considered the faceting those are the pious ones who spent their entire lives in Torah and mitzvot but some would say happy is our old age maybe these are not necessarily the people that were righteous their whole life happy is our old age that atones for I can read what I wrote here for something when we had since bright I think for our youth these are penitent so these are people who are like Bali Chula people who who were not always religious and that became religious both of the head spoke ranks but both happy he who did not sin and and he who did sin should repent and God will absolve him and forgive him so whether you were in the past life or this life all you have to do is worry about what you can do now everything's gonna be fine people my son my students asked me how do I know what my past life lunch shouldn't I try to find out what it was so that I could work on that particular area I said first of all they'll come to you because anything do you passed anything that you succeeded in conquering God will not test you again the things that you're faced with are those things that you have not yet passed that's number one number two if you're really hounding them you really want to know ask yourself this question when you were young and you saw something your parents did that hurt you you just set yourself when I grow up I'm not gonna I'm not going to act like that that's the last thing it's so embarassing it's so wrong you just internally knew is wrong it's probably close to the target of what you probably need to work on this is what I tell my students it asks me okay now I think that most of these other commentaries it's so key I think that we should leave them for the next time okay I think it's very important because I don't want to go too fast and I know we only have a few minutes so and you see if I had left anything we just make sure in them a seal to Shara and we left off in a good place as well we didn't get very far well you know we took you brought a train home though and around - I mean the reality of going to sleep at night is death and then what making up and just living a new day every day walking properly and you brought things out that I think are useful deep well when we go into this whole thing of Nassim toting this D you know the good acts this is what life is all about that's where we'll pick up next week because this is really what beyond the seven is all about you know when you hear about Demian you know so many of your listeners have asked me you know what about all those laws I mean being honest in business this is this is the question that a Jew is supposed to be asked when he goes to heaven I have no doubt that these are the kind of questions that are gonna be asked of the non Jew as well the first question were asked were you honest in business so what kind of business matters you know did you you've had some fine print in the contract that you hope that the guy wouldn't read I mean is that being honest to business I mean that happens all the time I'm sure I mean as a buyer as a client happens to me so those people they know they put it in the contract and they didn't point it out so I don't think that's considered being honest in business I know you can get away with in court because look it's they're black and white we told them to read it we even gave them take home but you know these things are not going to get you to heaven and it's not going to give you a good life and it's not going to give you a shame toe the idea here that that job right in the it's this idea not in cleese es T's I should say because Joe died with a good name that was the whole point he died with a good name but in Co helis in Co helis it was chapter 7 verse 1 right what do we say a good name is better than fine oil and the day of death than a day of one's birth so look we're trying to live I I encourage anybody who didn't read the kuzuri to read the kuzuri this was the king of the castle right nation who couldn't sleep he was in a dilemma I know which of the religions is going to give me the path to not to heaven to a moral I believe in God he said I want to know how I have to act in business in my everyday routine okay that's what he was looking for so hopefully this is where most of our listeners are at I know that we're dealing with custards we're dealing with some Kabbalistic ideas but we're grounded in the masala - Shari in the trait of Hesse duked and hopefully we'll understand what it means to be a seed they mo Salaam to truly understand that it's more important what comes out of your mouth than what you put into your mouth okay so I know that some guy said that 2000 years ago but it comes from us it's sin okay so this is especially relevant to our righteous and holy Gentile brother in that are looking to grow and it's about guide of attire have a meatless Patera at least toil and grow in that Torah that was given to you okay that's for starters and then the whole world's yours okay so with that pass everything back to you rabbi rabbi yeah as far as the kuzuri you know I did a series two years ago now with Rabbi Goldberg on that robe behind Goldberg we did eight parts just going through the first book and you know I've already set something up I'm hoping and I showed it to him and I hope he's gonna he might just do it with a new class on the book kuzuri especially on the first the first book of the it's just such beautiful work I appreciate you bringing up that we do have a question here because since you started this class somebody from California has been following along they bought the book Mesilla CEA's showroom and they just wanted to ask a question is there anything not relevant in the book to a non Jew I mean because this is somebody's trying to take their walk serious and learn and grow and nobody wants to jump into something they're not supposed to but I know it's a wonderful class I've even I sat into it with the rabbi Michaels go back I've heard some of his lessons on a beautiful beautiful things that come out but is there anything that is not relevant to a non-jew in there that they should stay away or avoid I think if there's anything that's not relevant to non-jew become obvious but I could be wrong anytime it says because it's written for Jews that's what's written for all mankind you know there's only gone when he never met the rom-com but he was so interested he said he would he would have given up everything just to meet the man just face to face it's all meant until the gone it was like the greatest he would have he really held the the the long ago that this is the answer from mankind right when you talk about character trait focusing on character traits focusing on what the Torah the Torah has to say about mankind if you're looking at it from that angle then just know that this is for you and potential right are you obligated those things which you can do to improve your character I would simply say if queer is you're obligated right if it's something to do with some highfalutin idea that relates just the juice it'll become obvious okay but if it's anything that we you know it's gonna talk to you I can't her scope was part of God right and you're gonna Intuit what is for me and my can change my character and I think you'll be amazed that maybe 99% of the book will be applicable to you as and I'm selectable I think that's clear I hope that helps answer that question you know I've thrown a little note out there if anybody's got any questions now is the time to put them in the chat box on YouTube or Facebook we're gonna try and wind it down I know that it's late in Israel you're 1:00 in the morning there but we do appreciate you preparing this we do appreciate you sharing with us let's see yeah somebody's really appreciating the round calls material I think today was such a beautiful lesson that it's it's reviewable for me even yeah you had me smiling today rabbi there's just some there was life there there was you know even talking about death that you mentioned I mean it just it just as live this message today I think just says live and you know so many people have hopes and dreams and aspirations in the in the world to come that some of them just think of like when we think of phony religions they have a hereafter or they have it they have a vision of heaven that is so heavenly minded its of no earthly good and they start to check out and they start to get into think things and imaginations and that's really more bent on drives and desires and what you've talked about today has to do with it character who you really are and I think the beauty of the book you're discussing shows us how we can be of earthly good and and of usefulness here and actually be happy and god-honoring but like you said how can we how can we when we're dealing with with hashem how can we actually be of real any use I mean you know to truly be humble but I also love how you brought around this question today about menís Freeman rabbi Freeman because everything I've ever listened to from him just seems to drip wisdom and I yet you know I'm familiar with the the the debater of the points that came out and you know founded said anybody sorry anybody can make a mistake but you approached the first and you say you're making a mistake right and he was told that in I'm no certain son under certain terms all his classes have no sources and all of a sudden he was very responsive and he made a class on all his sources right and I watch that that video and they're all valid sources right maybe it's an interpretation maybe it's a slight nuance but it's a very diff it's a very difficult topic to discuss we will continue to discuss half because that's what classy dude is it's this attitude how am I going to please my father in heaven it's the most ridiculous thing he doesn't need anything from us but it's our attitude down here that is not going to affect him one bit it's just the way we have to look at it and know that ultimately it has nothing to do with him and has to do with us it's the way as I mentioned before there's this concept called midsi domed seed a new that there's an aspect coming from him and that's called absolute we call it truth and that's meet seed uh from his aspect but we live in this world and we have Mitzy Daniel from our perspective and from so it's a it's a it's a type type type walk type walk it's whatever it's like Tigra it's it's not an easy topic to discuss and I give him a lot of credit for making every attempt you know and I think that if anybody believes that he's making a mistake instead of calling him evil call him on his mistake period asking nurse nurses an error error problem with the source of the way he's interpreting the resource and is he the only one you have the LaBarbara Rebbe you have other great Hasidic rebels who maybe interpret the same way so your problems not with manis Friedman your problem is with Hussey dudes and what can I tell you I think that Wow Rav I need you more than ever before we're all in the same team we're all on the same team working for the same boss so where does this sin fighting it's not helpful what's helpful is proper rebuke out of love and being effective right there's no effectiveness here okay maybe right maybe they did they said something and he brought out all the sources now what's the next step hey they should apologize and say okay we see your sources we don't agree with them but at least you have valid sources something like that or now we accept your sources whatever it is I have no idea but anyway you virtual right rabbi your word your word coming out of Jerusalem you know to us you know to me is solvent enough to say that hey there's a lot more behind the scenes and as Benigno Aquino with the kovat they've got they've got that you know riots going on in the US all over the place we don't easily be confused with the differences in slight opinions and differences between rabbis against rabbis but heaven forbid we ever say that a rabbis a heretic I think that it's stepping out of out of bounds unless I can back it up now rabbi now I have personally I spent 25 years working with magnetic anomalies okay most people have no clue what they are or what they're useful for or what wouldn't but when it comes to my research on it I'll stand toe-to-toe against any university professor on the planet when it comes to proving that the global flood happened just the way Taurus said it did I have no difficulty validating it and showing them right where their entire plate tectonic model is incorrect I will do that and I will back it up a hundred percent and I have no difficulty saying that but when it comes to saying a rabbis a heretic I could never heaven forbid I ever say a legitimate rabbi with shreeka with that's in the chain all the way back to Moses remain of is is ever a heretic heaven forbid that should ever happen that's not my place to say that and if rabbis have differences of opinion as you're saying on nuances of what is the majority and what is not I'm not gonna yeah condemned ever condemn a rabbi on that so yeah I just I just feel yeah you're just want a lot of clarification and support for rabbi Friedman here today and I've never heard the man ever say anything that was not wise that's my opinion so I want to thank ed Sheeran ever okay I just went ahead one more thing cuz I did the share I gave Thursday night I gave the class Thursday night I believe it's for the love of God I joined the Jewish people yes Rose mentioned in the parsha of a but not by name by the name of hvala because he loved the Torah he overlooked as Lisa's Moshe was concerned that he was going to see all the infighting amongst the Jews and then be scared away but it was his love for Torah and he trusted the miss hora right but he saw that the Jews were rebelling against God we're told meet in the desert they were they had mock locusts amongst themselves but they mainly were they rebelled against God and Moses was afraid because he saw that remember he was a priest of other religions he's probably seen at all and now he sees the truth and he's a little bit overwhelmed by the infighting or the rebelling against God and Moses is basically convincing him to stick around because we need you ready for this that we need the convert I'm not trying to convince anybody to convert I'm talking about what Moses says to Jethro that we need you to set the bar we need you to help unify us we need you the muzaka the robbing to increase our merits and therefore whatever we offered you in the beginning and you said no we're going offer you a second time the blessing that God gives us he's giving us blessing because of you setting the bar higher we get a blessing and we're willing to share that blessing with you this is what Moses says when when when Jethro whoa Bob says no I'm not going I'm going on my way I suggest people listen to the recording you go to the u-bahn net youtube channel why I do and eh and look for or maybe have to type it in what did I say it's called I forgot what's called something about for the safe oh gosh I love for the food stuff for the love of God for the love of God I joined the Jewish people okay and enjoy it awesome rabbi I want to thank you you know what you're sharing you know I've heard so often that before Hashem brought the Torah to the nation of Israel that he had offered it to the seventy nations and nobody wanted it as the the day's get closer may our hearts be changed on that matter and may those of the seventy nations be open to hear the light of Torah and we thank you we thank you for sharing it with us so folks we got a lot more coming next week you heard rabbi rabbi say he's got big chunks he's gonna put aside till next week for lesson a so we hope you can join us so hopefully same time next week Hashem willing we'll be sharing part eight so
