Friends or FRENEMIES - ERA OF MASHIACH (33)

[Music] we're back here uh Tuesday night M series uh we are uh up to number 33 uh tonight B will be a very interesting sh lots of sources lots of interesting things also connecting to this week's uh Torah portion and Torah obligation of tonight will be for a Leora but Abraham Esther butora AIG Su abah Talia SAR Saka Orit Bana ysep Ben Rael and David benri Doris Bora and also for a for Shaul Ben faran oshri benis Gabi benis elad benis David benri Mara but Julie Isa but Mara Samuel Ben Mara Alexander Ben Mara and all of Al is especially the ones that are helping us uh to do all the wonderful things that we're doing uh a lot of good things happening lots of stuff moving uh we have uh the movie is moving along one of the things that we're working on right now is translating the movie to uh multiple languages we are more than halfway done with the translations uh so I mean the the people that are contributing uh for the tunit movie uh sometimes they ask me what you know if the movie was already made what's what's the money for as I've mentioned several times the money is to market the movie to every single Corner in the world we're going to try to use every single tool we've learned over uh the last seven years of doing kiru and uh 25 30 years or so of doing business uh to uh to make sure that uh this movie literally reaches every single Corner in the world uh at the very least gives every Jew needless to say every uh human being an opportunity to see it uh so whether it's uh advertising on the internet uh advertising in uh with uh DVDs uh that b will print also with paper cards on the app uh you know uh a lot of different uh uh different strategies and ideas that we're coming up with we're also building uh a unique website uh for that's going to be launched alongside with the movie the website is going to be like something you've you know you've never seen before in the Torah world but you have seen before in the uh in Hollywood uh this will put us in the upper echelon of of Technology in the Torah world of which created everything with an opposite so while Hollywood uh you know is destroying the world we're going to use the tools that gave us to uh to rebuild whatever is uh whatever is available to be rebuilt so a lot of things are going to happening with this movie anyone that contributes to the movie is going to be partner in all of it and if that's not enough also they should know that uh you know while we're saying we're going to publish it to the four corners of the world uh it's not just to English speakers anymore uh it's going to be to people that speak different languages right now uh we have a translation team uh putting subtitles in French Russian Spanish Portuguese Hebrew um I believe uh Turkish Indonesian Korean German um Russian and uh uh I believe I may be uh forgetting one or two other languages I think it's somewhere in the neighborhood of at least 10 languages because theem will Merit to translate it to 70 languages just like mhu was uh commanded by to translate the Tora to 70 languages uh point being is to give people to give mankind an opportunity to fulfill the ultimate tun of the last generation which Rim said in it's to to rectify this the breit is not just to uh have a and it's not just to uh uh stop being uh promiscuous uh physically but also in the mind once you see this movie uh you'll get a lot more of what we mean uh we have another trailer uh coming out uh shortly probably in the next uh couple of days we'll be releasing a brand new trailer this trailer is different than the first two in a sense that it's also it's discussing the work that comes with that came with this uh this movie the the production the uh the things that are included in it it's going to be one of those things that uh you've never seen before I know I've watched many different films in the Torah world before uh and uh I've never seen such a thing uh and this is something that uh anyone that is going to invest in it uh especially those that invest generously in it and make make it a uh something that they really truly want to be a part of uh I could sure I could assure you you're you're literally buying you're reserving yourself a place Ina as a result of what's going to happen as you know from this movie now of course with everything that you do good in the world and uh are able to help uh you know people get closer to Hashem the Satan fights and tries to do whatever he can in order to slow you down in order to uh cool you down in order to do anything possible so of course you should know that you know this is the type of this is the time where there's a a lot more test than uh typical and there already bem uh our own uh fair share of tests that we get on a daily basis but lately it's been a uh you know an interesting new record uh from all types of things but you know gives us a test but he also gives us the uh the tools to overcome them uh and uh you know the key is to make sure that when you are trying to do everything possible to serve a you always remember that you're doing it for him you're doing it for for you to sanctify his name you're doing it to help a bunch of his children that you don't even know come back to him you're doing it for the people that he created uh to come back to him you're doing it for all of those reasons you're not doing it for yourself you're not doing it to flex your uh spiritual or physical muscles or or or financial muscles you're doing it for him and as long as you have that in mind uh you're bound to win despite the difficulties and sometimes even uh the small losses uh but needless to say the times are are not easy and uh but we keep going because we have the says just like who created the yet who is enormous who's a genius who is extremely powerful he also created some potion that's going to destroy him which is the tah what does it mean a tah use the learnings of the tah that you have both the learning itself and what you learn in order to overcome the one of the things like I just said is to always make sure that you're doing everything for the sake of Heaven uh and not for the sake of your own ego so this gives us the strength to continue this gives us the uh the ability to continue building our our because you're seeing things uh you know uh happen before your eyes and instead of wasting your time scratching your head uh like many people do you know why is this happening to me why you just move on and just continue doing things and I'll give you a small example you know sometimes you have people that are very passionate about uh about a uh AEM they're very passionate about Tah or at least they say they do and they're so passionate they forget it's about hem they're so passionate they forget about Torah and they start making it their own so sometimes we have different people that uh have been either employees or Volunteers in our team that uh you know showed a lot of passion and you know you want to try to contain that passion but sometimes what you see is that when you try to contain some of that passion the real ugly face comes out the real ugly face comes out and you see that everything that they did was really for the sake of ego everything they did was really for the sake of notoriety and and cavod and so on and they do silly things and one of the things that just happened a few days ago is one of these uh one of these uh people that literally just gave up theira decided to shut down our website so many of you may have noticed it or may not have noticed I don't know how often you visit our website but uh our one of our websites was shut down for a little while why because this person decided to log on the site and just delete the whole thing you know so you look at this you know it's a early afternoon and you have a present you know gifted to you but just like he created the he also created the to and we able to get back up and running within a matter of a few hours without uh without uh really uh thinking about it uh you know too much but again it gives you a little bit of an idea and the reason why the reason why I say these things is because it's always important to know that it's not just about talking about and and uh and calling them out and uh and saying this guy's Wicked and that guy's Wicked and you shouldn't listen to him you shouldn't listen to her it's not just about calling out the but it's also to remind ourselves not to be like them it's also to remind ourselves not to be that's really one of the biggest lessons you have to learn and unfortunately sometimes people forget that where they like to insult yell scream at other people thinking that that makes them better but in reality uh many times they're no different than the people that they're uh that they're insulting uh and but that sometimes is a little bit blurry so you see you see all of these things within time uh you know and one of the things we're going to discuss that brings up is in essence dealing with dealing with these but we're not talking about theim that uh live you know somewhere in your community or theim that live on a screen somewhere uh where you see their videos popping up here and there or theim that perhaps live you know that you went to school with many years ago but you haven't seen no we're talking about dealing with theim that are in your life your friends family and so on and so forth partners in business and otherwise how to deal with those who are these people how can we uh you know how can we uh manage to elevate ourselves to become if we have so many around us this is one of the uh you know million dooll questions that many people ask and uh the answer uh may or may not surprise you but will'll bring you all the sources to to help that uh before we do that just give you a little bit of a uh uh a public uh notice announcement uh Public Service Announcement you know people sometimes ask me you know if uh you know we we we have unusual hours so sometimes you'll get a text response from us at 3 4 5:00 in the morning and it ask what do you do so right now one of the things you'll see me doing if you get a response from me at 3 or 4 or 5:00 in the morning is that right now we have a campaign uh we uh that's the puim 5781 campaign now this puim 5781 campaign I mentioned to you briefly this is there a three major mitv for uh the the uh you know site from the known of having a meal and reading the uh and hearing the Milla there's also the MK which is to give a third of a the price of the silver to the poor uh this year it's somewhere in the neighborhood of around $10 uh give or take silver goes up down but long story short it's somewhere around price $10 for each family member so whether it's a toddler or it's an adult uh every single member has to give we hear that we learn this from uh the Tora itself this a Biblical where told to give in some people uh have the custom of giving three uh meaning three * 10 $30 per person because it's a speciala because the verse itself that talks about tum mentions the the word tum three times so this is money that you know you does you give to the poor and one of the things we've done over the years is we've helped people by taking the money that they're going to give anyway if they want to fulfill this mitz and giving it to real poor people that we know that also happen to be and not just some homeless guy in the street that may or may not be on drugs when you give it to him uh so this money we give to poor people we know the second thing the second is which is gifts to the poor uh each adult each adult needs to give a gift to the poor uh we discussed this a littleit more or L last lecture that we had uh you know you can get away with giving as little as 20 shekels in is uh in America probably uh you know $20 or some say a little more a little less point being is you know that money is supposed to buy the person a festive meal for p him and as we all know there's no festive meal coming for $20 uh so what we've decided to do is that we decided that we're going to give each family 500 checkel somewhere in a neighborhood of about $170 $180 uh you know if you include some of the transaction costs of you know moving the money around from place to place and so on uh so it's about 500 checkel is the average we're going to give each family some families will get more because they're bigger families and there or there's a much bigger need they're unfortunately in destitute uh you know the stories that we deal with are uh atrocious uh to say the least you know having people call me crying saying that you know listen you know please help such and such family I said okay just give me the name no but you don't understand you have to help I said okay fine I'll help them what's you know why why you call me at 4:00 in the morning you know sending me a message 4:00 in the morning crying I'll help no no you don't understand I just saw their seven-year-old son begging for change because he wanted to buy Bamba for a shekel okay now I understand why you call me at 4:00 in the morning my time 11:00 your time because that is a traumatizing uh experience not only for you but for the kid itself seven-year-old kid is begging for a sh because he wants to buy bomba because his parents are so poor they can't afford a shele to buy a snack you know in America it's the equivalent of potato chips or or or pretzels so the poverty in ER is is horrendous uh anyone that was struggling before Corona is much worse than you can imagine today uh and the government is not doing much at all to help them uh so each and every single person needs to uh assess whether they're going to be the one that helps or not some people can just fulfill the Mitzvah and get away with just sending $20 and some people will you know that can do more will say listen I can afford a lot more than $20 I can it's in 20,000 uh well if you're going to do that then do that sooner rather than later because the uh you know we need to give them the money already in order to get the supermarkets and so on going so because we knew we didn't we don't know how much people are going to send or whether they're going to send or not but we do know one thing for sure the people are poor and the people are struggling so we already sent $50,000 about 150,000 shekels already uh and uh out of the 50,000 we ra raised I think about 1,500 so we're short a little bit uh uh so we sent we you know we we sent the money already uh these you know people ask me what I do in the middle of the night these are some of the receipts that I get when you send you know 30,000 shekels here another uh 177,000 shekels here and then we also have uh the supermarkets uh have become our good friends so we buy a lot of stuff from them to get uh to get a uh uh the the merchandise from them so we can get one of our team members to arrange baskets of food to literally make a festive meal so you have you know they can't uh sometimes they're limited with how much they can charge you have the same Supermarket charge you $1,500 you know six seven 8 10 times in a row just to make sure that the transaction goes through and you see there's papers and papers and papers and papers and because we're doing it all over the place we have a uh um in uh in is we have inion uh several places so far we've committed we have enough that we sent uh um for 300 families 300 families is what that $50,000 will do we'd like to do 3,000 families but you know what we could afford right now and still uh give us the ability to uh uh have enough for uh you know to to to continue functioning and doing the other things we need to do for PES is 300 families uh you know so if new people are coming a few people actually called me today saying that they need another four families I don't know if we're going to be able to do it unless we raise a lot more money but the point being is is that there is no shortage of needy there's no shortage of needy uh and uh each and every person needs to fulfill this mitvah you know Jews need to fulfill this mitvah for p uh and it's much more important if you look at the campaign that we have uh the rambam paskins that it's much more important to spend money more money on the on the gifts to the poor to give them a festive meal than on the Mish that people give to their friends and spend 80100 $200 on Mish because they want to get their friend you know a nice gift the wine and you know that's all great but if that $100 is going to kill your budget and you're only going to be able to end up giving 50 bucks or 20 bucks from you you got it confused you got it confused it's better you give your friend $20 uh in in in uh you know give him a little cake and a drink and give the rest of the money to the poor people that actually need it because your friend lives in a half a million dollar house he doesn't need the food it's just you know showing Unity so again sometimes you have to know that there are uh many MIT in the but there's also a priority there's a priority and that uh that time to think about what the priority is is is every day but needless to say right now so anyone that wants to help uh is welcome to help anyone who doesn't make sure you fulfill the Mitzvah elsewhere because if you don't fulfill the mitvah you're missing out on opportunities to serve hem you're uh you're uh uh in essence of pretty much not celebrating the holiday uh so with that being said we have a uh one of the things that happens during puim is that is gets to uh you know fulfill the Mitzvah of uh of not only doing chuva but also destroying Amal who's is so there's a special mitvah to do CH during puim and during the time of puim and needless to say there's a special Mitzvah of the destroying Amal nowal is not just a person Amal is not just a nation Amal is a thought process AMC is an ideology and this week we have a Biblical commandment biblical commandment to hear the the uh after reading the par we have to theal will go to on Shabbat and he's going to read several verses from that par that you have a Biblical commandment to listen to it okay so this is extremely important for people to fulfill uh it's a uh it's it's actually uh uh something that a lot of people perhaps don't even know how important it is it's even more important than listening to the Miga uh you so so it's it's a critical mitvah now uh of course you still have to listen to the Miga one doesn't replace the other but the point being is a lot of people think that listening to migil is uh is is important it is but this is even more important even though it's shorter why because if a person listens to it and delves over what is being said here he could literally understand understand the ideology required from a Jew in this world just from these verses and what is this what are the verses say chapter 25 verse number 17 18 and 19 translation remember what Amal did to you on the way when you were leaving Egypt anyone who doesn't know when we left Egypt the miraculous Exile from Egypt destroying the biggest civilization in the world Hashem 10 plagues split the ocean into 12 one for each tribe a fruits coming out of the ground everyone's having a uh a glorious time singing the word of hem even the babies the babies that were still in their mother's belly were were singing and you were able to see them because the literally the the the bellies became the mid says see through not that anyone else saw it but the babies were able to see out and point to Hashem saying this is my God and I will sanctify him so a lot of amazing things happened the whole world heard about it it wasn't just you know the Egyptians and and and the Jews the whole world heard about it but yet Amal decided now is the time to attack now out of all times to attack the Jewish people to attack now out of all times this is what they did they went and they this is what happened to us that he meaning happened upon you what has happened upon you you well this is Rashi says one of the character traits this happened upon you is one of the character traits one of the places we learn about the character traits of amalik to know it's not just a people but rather an ideology that that he happened upon you on the way and he struck those of you who were hind moror all the weaklings at your rear when you were faint and exhausted and he did not fear God it shall be that when Hashem your God gives you rest from all your enemies all around in the land that Hashem your God gives you as an inheritance to possess it you shall Wipe Out the memory of Amal from under the heaven you shall not forget here we see that when it comes to Amal there are two biblical mitv two biblical one wipe out am wipe out anything that is relevant to amalik sins ideology mentality and so on as well as the people when we know who they are today we don't know who Amal is as far as there's no nation of Amal that's walking around but you can tell who Amal is relatively quickly if you look at the Z which talks about what who are amalik and we're going to go over that in a second cuz rash also says who's amalik you shall not forget meaning don't think that this is something that was supposed to happen just the time of mosenu it's written in the Tora for you today in the year 5781 or 2021 to uh to their according to the Gregorian calendar this is a mitzvah for you to fulfill today don't forget don't forget so now we see that this amik had a very similar very similar trait that Christianity had why Christianity had Christianity started with who with the weaklings and the illiterates and the elders among am is who did not know better and thereby that's that's who you know they took into their Camp to become Christians without them even knowing they're becoming Christians many times that's why in the beginning of Christianity anyone that knows the real history knows that in the beginning of Christianity the uh the not the Christians were in essence viewed as those that observe the mitv not forsake the mitv so it looked very similar to Judaism thereby making it very difficult for some people to tell the difference that's why some of the came together a few hundred years later and uh sent one of theim in there to corrupt Christianity uh in a sense of creating a significant difference between Christianity and Judaism uh and that's when Catholicism was born with obviously switching the Sabbath from uh from Saturday to Sunday uh no more PES no more this no more nothing no more MIT so initially Christianity was one thing later on it got corrupted into something completely different obviously was corrupt from the beginning because it was all based on a false belief that a human can be God but needless to say how did they get power how did they get started with all this they took advantage of the weaklings does that mean that all Christians are Amal not necessarily not necessarily but surely some of them are we know that the uh the uh the Nazis uh were many of them were religious Fanatics that were Amal as well but that's not the only thing that it says it also says that one thing in common that these that these uh Amal have is that they do not fear God no so from here tell us anyone that disdains dislikes that's a sign of Amal that's a sign of Amal which means some members of amalik and unfortunately it seems like it's a large group are Jewish people are Jewish people are they're called also the and we have a couple of sh about the based on and many many other sources that we did a few years ago highly recommended to watch that video who is is one video I think it's called another one is maybe you are or are you there's a couple of videos we brought we brought many sources including the Z where we see that has one thing in common which is they not only don't have fear of hem they hate it they hate fear of hem they hate the concept of fear of hem they hate the teachings of fear of hem it's not that they are just there and they don't want to talk about fear of hem they rather talk about this stories like people like to say no it's not just that it's rather that they cannot coexist with someone who teaches so they have to disturb them they have to cause them damage they have to do everything possible and of course every single person every single person that we have exposed over the years is one of those people is one of those amalik every single one no exception and of course there's many others there's many others we have mentioned but the point being is they all have that in common they all make fun of even though and many other tractates says fear of the almighty that's his treasure that's the treasure so much that the says hem only created the world in order for you to fear him when we learned this from Mount saai we went there and everybody died and raenu after Hashem resurrected them twice CU they died twice they said well do whatever he says you know you just go talk to him and you know because if we continue hearing his voice we're going to die mosu says to them no the whole message here is that he's scaring you in order to make sure that you don't sin you know what you're dealing with meaning that hashem's strategy number one strategy of communicating to the his people is by scaring them why that is the number one motivation that inspires people to do things inspires not just Jewish people Humanity at large operates based on fear you're but unfortunately what people don't realize is that while these naysayers will always say no you shouldn't teach fear of the almighty you shouldn't teach fear of God you should teach love the god of love God loves everyone everybody's going to heaven all this mumbo jumbo uh uh ridiculous uh uh teachings why is it ridiculous because if you tell them listen you know you shouldn't speed here because the if you do there's a sign over there that says you're going to get a traffic ticket and maybe go to jail oh thank God thank God thank thank you for letting me know oh but you got scared that's why you're stopping yeah so how come you're not like yelling at me for scaring you no CU I know you're scaring me in order to warn me they don't have a problem with being scared of disease they don't have a problem being scared of a traffic ticket they don't have a problem of of someone teaching uh uh uh scaring of a lot of other things politics money poverty and so on and so forth when it comes to fear of the almighty the only fear you're actually allowed to have because everything else is false fear you're only allowed to have fear of the almighty that's what they go against I.E the reason why they are amalik because they're going against the Creator's uh uh instructions of what the purpose of the world is and how we can get to a point of serving him all the time without having all of this uh confusion in us now one of the other things that you see in people that do not fear hem is that they're very vocal about their lack of fear of hem they're very hateful towards anyone who teaches or speaks about fear of hem and more than anything else they're very proud of their sins they're their their sins are public sins they're not ashamed of anything they've lost all sense of Shame and as it says in someone that desecrates like violate Shabbat or or or does any other sinia in public the the punishment is uh many multitudes higher for such a person that person that drives on Shabbat meaning he obviously everyone knows he's driving on Shabbat and this guy is uh desecrating hashem's name and so on that's the person that goes to Gom permanently and never comes out unless he does chuva before he dies a public sin is a clear clear announcement that you're not afraid of God so these people that are not afraid of God are always very public about their sins they're very public about their wrong opinions and Rashi says this is a sign of amalik where do we learn it from that happened upon you what do it mean that happened upon you if you look at the pursuit rash he says this these are people are think that everything is happened stance these types of people have a mentality that's the opposite of what a where they believe that filling their desires is the primary purpose of the world not fulfilling hashem's obligations so much so that they feel like if they have a physical desire that's really against nature and needless to say against the Torah such as homosexuality they're not only going to sin but they're going to do it publicly and that's why Rashi says we learn this this this this impurity that's uh meant by the word Kerry this particular word and we learned from mid that this this is referring to this is referring to homosexuality what does homosexuality have to do with Amal the homosexuals are amalik those people that are going to Gay Pride parades and are proud of their sins 100% amalik now can they save themselves of course they can get themselves out of that filth and do Chua like we've had several students realize after learning many of our shim that not only is homosexuality forbidden in the Tora it's literally Insanity it's literally Insanity they did Chu and they have fantastic lives now surely it's difficult from time to time and so on but needless to say I I have several students that have overcome this desire CU even they tell me listen everybody tells you sells you this mumbo jumbo that you're born that way it's all nonsense and even says yes some people have a feminine trait doesn't mean that they're homosexual it just means that they have feminine traits so it's most likely that they would be attracted to a masculine female and a masculine female that has masculine you know female that has masculine traits simply doesn't mean that she's homosexual and she needs to be with a girl it means she should be uh with someone most likely more attracted us to a feminine female a feminine a feminine male why because that's the opposite of track simple simple but that's the thing people that have demented mentalities and a lot of desires that go out of control they not only go and become homosexuals but they become members of amalik they become members of am and that's what Rashi says on a PUK we know that we cannot survive a single PUK without Rashi commentary and this is not just Rashi but many many other places the lack of leads to every sin in the T and one of the things that Amal had is that they had no they would desecrate aem's name openly including homosexuality they were filthy filthy human beings that were openly homosexual and doing all types of disgusting things I.E the reason why who says these homosexuals are is a character trait of amalik so sometimes you're going to have friends family members uh or different people that you know that are homosexual or they're violating Shabbat or they eat on P or they eat on on y when it's a fast day and so on and so forth does that mean that everybody's Amal not necessarily it all depends on how they receive the truth and whether they repel it or they know it's true it's just hard for them to do chuva for it if they're anti-truth if they're one of these Lefty liberal open homosexuals that are proud of their rights one of those types of people for sure this is am hasm is going to destroy them at some point or another but the t is so holy and so extraordinary that even people that came from the source of Amal can do CH as we learned in the that the descendants of ham ham who himself was Amal his descendants became big rabis in they converted to Judaism became big rabbis byes in so here we see that t is extremely powerful but the point is does that mean that we should just accept everyone teach everyone deal with everyone and that's what the issue is that uh that is discussing in the last several months the has told us that before the Holocaust he saw things that are no different than today 80 years later we've learned absolutely nothing and uh we're repeating the same mistakes that led to the Holocaust we repeat repeated the same mistakes that led to a crisis of all kinds uh and we're repeating the same things andman says that the fish stinks from the top meaning that it a the biggest problem has always throughout all of the generations throughout all of history the biggest problem for am is has always been its leaders it's always been its leaders from the time of mosenu when korak and his uh and his followers they were leaders they were the biggest rabbis in the world at the time they all went against M andm put all of them in G and the reality is that continued in the bet mikdash the first one the second one and throughout all of History we've had leadership problems we had Wicked Kings we had kings that were Idol worshippers but the point being is is that this is not a problem of the past this is a problem of every day so says that one of the one of the things that he saw during his day is that the Shepherds what he calls the Shepherds the leaders political leaders rabinal leaders and otherwise uh were leading people astray with their false uh false beliefs with their wicked ideology and uh the uh the modern Orthodox of the day or the thei the nationalized uh type of Jews that uh felt themselves religious because they remained loyal to a few mitv that they liked but figured that everybody could be a Jew even if they don't believe in God even if they don't keep Shabbat in essence they redefine Judaism as we've learned in the last few weeks from the uh from the and he said last uh last couple of weeks he told us listen how do you know that you have been infected by this ideology of the wicked reformers and lighteners zionists and the likes how do you know each a person is judged based on what he Praises if you praise sports stars Hollywood stars multi-billionaires that's who you admire that's who you are meaning in the eyes of hem you'll be judged as someone who simply disdains Torah you'll be judged as someone who completely missed the purpose of life you'll be judged as someone who simply does not even know why you're alive why because you're praising things that you could only enjoy temporarily in this world and many times they give you more trouble than actual Joy if you're praising the billionaire the millionaire the Beautiful the popular the honorary the uh all of those things you are praising the wrong thing why who should you praise you should praise the people that are setting themselves up for an eternity of good theik and that's what rman said is that many times these modern Orthodox types of mentality in his day were bred to believe by their leaders that they should praise the her cells of the world the uh benon of the world those types of people even though those people were Wicked anti-semitic Jews uh they were self-hating Jews they wanted to convert Jews to Christianity they wanted to destroy Judaism uh many of them were either uh Christian themselves converted to Christianity or some of them were atheists needless to say none of them weread none of them and for anyone that mentions you know different rabbis that were uh uh sikim that you know were were on the side of the Zionist you should know that even radya for example when he was asked about R cuk radya says that uh R was kesim the only reason why he was uh part of the zus for a per period of time time was because he like many other many other sikim did not know what was really behind the uh the the the Trap what was behind the veil that they were putting over people's eyes he didn't know how Wicked the Zionist were many people thought that helel was religious Jew many people thought that these zionists meant well for is and fell for the Trap unfortunately you know there's still people at the end of the day as far as being prone to to failure so the point being is even though many of them were some actually fell for the Trap but some did not like and many like and many other and the reason why is because they were stricter to the letter of the law than everybody else specifically pertaining to people that are not that are not observing specifically when it comes to people that are not learning toah specifically talking about people that are not observant where to the point where they make the Torah their number one priority where they make the biggest rabbis the sages the sadik or even your average learning in a the person that they praise if you don't praise your average 25 35 45 year old a learning all day no one even knows he's alive aside from his immediate family and a few friends no one in the world he's not a famous author he's not a big sadik as far as the whole world knows about but he learns to all day if you don't praise that person would tell you you're missing the point why that tadik that's learning Tor all day that's the superhero of the world it's not your NBA stars and NFL stars and Hollywood and hedge fund managers it's none of those people those people have no eternity those people have no future those people are what are the Kim of the generation they're like the Thorns of the generation they're not the good of the generation if you praise those people you're praising theim you're praising the Wicked the Thorns of the world you should be praising theik even if it's not theik that you know like and and all the other that are famous even if it's just your average guy that's who you should be praising so here he says why did go from praising anyone that learns T to praising anti-tat people to praising politicians to talk to knowing more about the political system of the United States or Israel they're knowing what says they're knowing what says they're knowing what is more people and know more about the political system the salary cap of every sport and all of that stuff and they don't know anything about how come it starts with the leaders starts with the leaders says because we start a praise ing those Wicked leaders honoring the evildoers is a fire which completely destroys as he brings from Sha about 750 years before him so now he continues and he says in spite of the torah's warning it's prohibited to join with with evildoers even in obeying a mitvah they say not so for through our cooperation with the Sinners we will cause them to repent so says look at this we have clear instructions from the tah from our oral tah that tells us you're not allowed you're prohibited to join in any capacity including a Mitzvah with Wicked people these modern mentality liberal mentality people are saying no no no you're wrong you got it all wrong we have the god of love we love everyone even if they're not Jewish even if they're not religious even if they're not this even if they're not that even if they're Wicked even if they're anti- Jews why because through our cooperation with them with these Sinners will cause them to do chuva will cause them to repent they think themselves wiser and better than the Torah itself and the Torah warns don't be over righteous it says in Coit uh the uh Ecclesiastes chapter 7:1 15 don't be overly righteous meaning don't be more righteous than the Torah demands man must not attempt to outdo the Torah in righteousness so here apologize here we have an interesting mitvah some of us may have never heard of before what is it we're prohibited to join the evildoers in anything includes even a mitvah so now where we get some of this this is quoted all over the this is quoted everywhere we'll bring you a couple of sources since brought this is one of the sources that we'll go through in written about 800 years ago he has a teaching unlike any other that a person after reading it once knows that it's not enough after reading it 99 times knows it's not enough maybe after 101 times he'll know that he just got started why because this book has literally the nervous system what what the nervous system the mental nervous system of a Jewish supposed to look like in the third gate section 51 translation it's also forbidden to be associated with an evil person regard regarding worldly Affairs meaning even business your partner Idol worshipper your partner Christian Missionary your partner Shabbat find a new partner find a new partner get out of that partnership why it'll lead to a lot of problems it'll lead to to a lot of problems I had somebody come to me recently and and uh ask me some questions they have a business interesting business uh an up a startup created an interesting product and they asked me a few questions about the business and you know of course startups usually need funding so they have different people investors and so on said listen I got this one guy religious guy you know said that he could help us he came he has a few people that he knows and uh you know we asked him for to help us with funding to get some investors a few times and uh he was able to deliver with the investors but the problem is that as soon as we let him in as soon as we let him in the guy started doing all types of shady things with the business with the money started looking into the into the back office broke into our uh technology hacked our system and all types of things that you know we don't even understand what what he's doing what is irrelevant to him and then he brought on another guy who also has similar things what should we do with these people I mean we need funding we need people that can help us raise money for our company for our business to survive and so on I told them the Tora [Music] says says from a thing of Lies run away from stay away from it doesn't say don't lie it says stay away from it meaning not only don't lie but even if you're not the liar somebody else is the liar run away from such people why this will bring you only problems once you know someone is a compulsive liar there that's it relationship has to terminate has to terminate why it's it's very very difficult very difficult for a person to overcome such a trait not impossible but very difficult needless to say it's almost impossible to for them to do it while there's cash in front of them while there's opportunity in front of them because they don't even see straight anymore you literally have a juicy piece of meat in front of them and you're expecting him not to eat it the guy's a lion yeah but I told him it's my meat you think he cares you really think he cares goes yeah but I gave him his own meat so what so he ate his meat now he wants yours that's what a liar is liar doesn't see straight you don't run away from this person you're going to get hurt and right now the damage of s is relatively contained because you guys are still new you guys are still relatively small I promise you that you getting out of this relationship may hurt a little bit in the beginning but nonetheless it'll give you a chance to survive if you don't these are the types of people that will eventually take your entire company somehow they always find a way to rob the entire business from people the entire money and everything else so I don't know if they listen they said they will listen but again you know the advice is free as far as the results the results are theirs it's all in the hands of a but sometimes people ask questions with you know without really wanting to listen to them I don't really know why they ask but nonetheless people ask such questions andman brings a issue he says if the person is wicked not just if he's a liar if he's wicked in any aspect Idol worshiper missionary atheist you cannot be involved with him meaning his definition is much more Broad and where is the source says it's forbidden to associate with an evil person regarding worldly Affairs where we learn where does r bring this from Chronicles 2 20:37 where we see that yapat who was righteous yosafat was righteous partnered with aaz who was evil and says to him because you have drawn near with hasem foiled your actions so because of his partnership with this wicked person made theik fa even when it concerns continues even when it concerns matters involving MIT meaning even if it involving a good thing let's go build a Suka together no let's go build a house together no let's build a besset together no okay you know what let me how about what do you need you need 100,000 500,000 a million dollar $5 million for your Yeshiva for your sh how about how how much did you get you got half the money I'll give you the other half of the money Mr Wicked says to you you know what you're supposed to say no no now you say wait a minute why you going to stop the wicked people from doing MIT I'm not saying stop them I'm not saying stop them but if you know that this people are wicked evil people money is not Kosher they're not they're desecrating the to you should not take their money and use it for big things like that why it's going to be problematic now of course some will have leniencies and we tell you you're allowed to take it but you shouldn't you're allowed to take it maybe even you should but the point here is we see says don't be involved with them at all is black and white don't be involved with them at all why even if it's a mitvah it's forbidden to associate yourself with an evil person because we also learned from 3 verse number 31 where he sees so quotes first he quotes the last part that I mentioned Mish he says don't envy a man of violence and do not choose any of his ways sometimes people Envy boxers or people that are powerful oh this guy just took over this company even though he really stole it from somebody else like ah yeah but he won or they used to admire Donald Trump when he would embarrass people in public by telling them they're fired in front of millions of people says look says don't envy such a person don't envy such a person don't choose to be like him many people have become arrogant as a result of what has been uh advocated as the uh the way to go the way to lead the way to win in the world by showing media like the uh show that Donald Trump used to have called The Apprentice and other shows like it where you have these powerful businessmen simply destroying people in public whether they're a chef or a CEO or all types of things they literally embarrass people and you know of course they don't show you everything that happened they don't show you the whole conversation they just show you mainly without skipping a beat the most embarrassing moments so they're literally spilling blood of these people on national television and the uh audience instead of crying foul and saying ah this is not right I'm never going to watch this again I'm going to write a complaint to the network what do they do they say you know what that guy down Trump I want to be like him that guy uh this guy I want to be like him they actually start cheering for the bad guy that's why even in in Hollywood I from what I heard they started making movies of bad guys like literally the bad guy wins which is the opposite of of normaly but that's what's happened today soy has changed where this midat this traits of Amal are seeping through the cracks in every home home why people are envying the wicked people continu says was that written by the t 2000 years ago some say it was all written byan andos uh and some say that it was a compilation of others but the point being is this is an ancient writing ancient writing that some say this is part of the others called but do to say everyone quotes it left and right all over the place and we'll go into it in a moment quotes it 800 years ago he quotes it and he says our sages inan in chapter n says do not become a companion to the wicked even for the sake of a Mitzvah meaning that in the name of the tanim in the name of the tanim the sages that were able to resurrect the dead he says they taught us do not become friendly do not become a companion to Wicked people even for the sake of mitv what does it mean even for the sake of mitv what just to you know they can't be partner with you in donating they can't be a partner with you in uh building something what else does it entail what else does it entail so in order to find out we have to know that is one of those that gives clear black and white language without skipping a beat if the sages we here today they'll be thrown out of every Sho out there why they weren't politically correct here says many Pathways towards death can be found when associating with the wicked we've already underscored this transgression and the severity of its punishment meaning the people that disregard this instructions of not associating with the wicked are going to be punished severely are going to be punished severely so let's see what aan says in chapter n number four one of the Nam says do not associate with the rash with the wicked person this teaches that a person should not associate with a person who is bad meaning who sins against against his fellow against his fellow man and not even with a person who's Wicked which means that he sins against God one end he sins against his fellow as well as against God actually the one that's bad but then there's a guy that's wicked R where he's actually a decent person to other people but to hasem he's against him violate Shabbat waste seed Steals and so on and so forth so here we see that further elaborates it says not just don't associate with a wicked person but don't associate with a bad or evil person whether he's bad just to people and uh and not to God or he's bad to uh only to God bottom line is those don't associate with him why because we learn from the Torah that anyone that associated with the evil people lost a lot and he brings several different examples in the book of Kings one chapter 22:4 and also Chronicles 2ter 18:3 brings several different stories says we find these in the case of yapat who was a righteous king of Judah who associated with a the wicked king of Israel and went up with him to wage war in Raod gilad as a result Fury went upon him from God meaning heard him as a result of it afterwards this righteous righteous king of Yuda yat associated with another Wicked King a son his name was to make a joint Fleet of ships to go to and they built ships together in and God wrecked their undertakings and it says in the prophet in Chronicles 20:37 the prophet says to yapat because you have Allied yourself with a hasem has wrecked your undertakings the ships broke down and did not succeed in going to tarish third example he brings similarly we find in the case of David Son amnav sonn Associated himself with his cousin who was a Rasha uh a Rasha by the name of uh yadav yadav now this yadav gave him terrible advice in the end but in the beginning he was known as a very smart person says that had a friend his name was y who was actually his his cousin it says that had a friend named yadav the son of David's brother shimya and yadav was a very men in the book of Samuel's 2 13:3 so smart person who doesn't want a smart person comes says he was what scriptures referring to is that he was wise for the purpose of evil he was wise for the purpose of evil where uh this guy gave him advice that led to dying how did this how did this happen amn gave him advice of how to go and capture Tamal into his Chambers so he could rape her that's his wisdom wisdom what a good friend which eventually led to his death as a result of this sin of shalom's brother her brother uh they were brothers actually it was an incestual relationship and uh point being is that uh after he uh raped her this uh he ended up getting killed but uh this advice of how to do it and how to fool her by pretending to be sick and uh you know getting her into the room that all came from his so-called friend which really now we know is not a friend but rather a friend of me as an enemy that pretends to be a friend who was known as yadav the uh the wife you're ad but wise for evil so now we see that n is telling us you have to be careful with dealing with these Wicked people even if you're meaning to do something good fight a war get more land beat bad people no good okay great so what about let's say helping them do Chua you know sometimes sometimes you have to do things that you don't want to do in this business it's sad to call it a business but it is a business what's the business you have to deal with people constantly so what do you have to do sometimes you have to cut off people you have to cut off people as a teacher you have to sometimes cut off people why and several other places says that you're not allowed to learn from someone who's La who's not a a fair teacher who has bad character traits who is a uh who's a person that's uh not a good uh person he may know a lot of good things but he himself is not a good person not allowed to learn from such a thing but the very same says you're also not allowed to teach such a person meaning if the teacher is righteous sadik and everything else but if the student is not just your average Sinner and he's sinning out of ignorance he's sinning out of foolishness but rather he simply decides that his way is right and the Torah is wrong he decides that this is what it means no matter what the say he decides that what you're saying is a and what he thinks is the reality now if this is just one or two times and then you explain it to them or to her and they realize and they make changes no problem but if they continuously do that and you see they're continuously manipulating the like you do putty like you do with Clay to their own likings that's known as AAL he's a unfair this is a person that you cannot deal with you can't teach such a person can't teach as a person now what does say on such alternatively do not associate with a wicked person means even for the purpose of studying Torah together meaning if the person doesn't know and is willing to hear it's a mitvah and the biggest mitvah you possibly can do for the sake of to bring him or her back closer to Hashem help them keep Shabbat help them overcome their different desires that they have help them help them help them that's what we do 24 hours a day practically but if you see that this person is a rash in such a sense that he's L he's wicked because he's distorting the Torah to his likings he's distorting the Torah from the students perspective meaning just like Manis fredman imim or mimo or D or all of the other or or or eim Goldberg or M all these wicked wicked teachers sometimes there are students like that that student you have to cut him off no more talking no more communication stop it just nothing nothing stop why you're not helping him and in fact he can hurt you he can hurt you that's what is saying here sometimes you have to realize and call it as it is it's not ignorance but rather wickedness he's not making the sins because he's ignorant she's not making SS because she's ignorant she's making the sins because she's wicked I had a woman that I asked I asked listen you did CH you're a your life looks amazing married a good guy have B good kids and awesome but you know you being you know in the psychological world you're you're very you know she was she's someone that has a lot of experience with people and so on can you tell me something I want to understand this I mean I learned what the books say but I want to understand from a woman's perspective why do women walk around imod what do they get out of it I mean she's married she's not married she's young she's old like it doesn't seem like it has like a limitation why she looks at me she says you really don't know I said I mean I know she wants to get attention she goes you think that's it just attention she already got attention at home she got attention her husband a boyfriend or this or that so she gets attention I said exactly that's my point that's my question why did she keep doing it if she already has attention the guy bought her a car he bought her a house he bought her this you bought that but she's still trying to get the attention of Steve from the supermarket and attention from this guy and that guy she says don't you understand subconsciously this girl has been taught from society that she has a superpower I said what said exactly that that girl has been taught consciously or subconsciously that she has a superpower by walking around immodestly she has a superpower to take control of people's minds why that guy was thinking about stocks bonds mutual funds clients death benefit H this IRS all of a sudden he stopped thinking about all of that stuff and it was replaced with a picture of her that guy was thinking about the death of a loved one all crisis is this that all of a sudden it was replaced with her that guy was thinking about he can't wait to get married he loves her great all of a sudden the picture of his loved one was replaced with a picture of her that guy was teaching a bunch of little kids this ohes great all that stuff suddenly his mind went blank and it was replaced with a picture of her why she walked by them immodestly and her super power to control without her doing anything other than walking and sometimes not even that she has a superpower I said that is the most extraordinary thought I've ever heard from from from about the subject and she says I'm surprised you didn't know I said I don't know if anybody knows including the people that that that that do this including the women that walk around IM modest she that's what it is it feels great to have the superpower she tells me and it's tough to overcome the desire to practice the superpower why cuz right now did now you're modest now okay people look at you but they look at you differently they look at you with respect they look at you with honor oh she must be married she's religious that's it you don't have that same superpower you walked around and people you stopped traffic you don't have that superpower people left all of their deepest thoughts and now they're replaced with you you don't have that superpower that that guy's going to think about you at 4:00 in the morning when he's with his wife you don't have that superpower anymore he says that's a big desire it's hard for a woman to overcome it and I said and that's the reason why kadosh gives such a big reward for a woman that does Chine becomes modest now I understand the magnitude of the crime literally turning yourself into an idol as a result of immodesty but also the magnitude of the reward that will go to a righteous woman that does chuva and completely destroys all of her imod closed like many of our students have done as a fulfillment of the mitvah of destroying amik some students of mine did it specifically on PIM in order to fulfill the mitvah of destroying am they didn't sell the clothes they didn't even just throw them in the garbage they made sure to destroy them so no one El even thinks of wearing them and we're talking about women that had clothes that worth literally tens of thousands of dollars destroyed all of it why she real this is a superpower I don't want anymore it's a superpower it's going to get me to G that's why these women get such a big reward why because the second you become truly modest not just with your clothes but also with your mind you're no longer looking to attract everyone with this so-called superpower you're no longer looking to be the center of attention you just want to be daddy's little girl who's daddy I just want to do what you want you want me to be modest I'm be modest you want me to do the best that I can to raise my kids I'll do the best I can to raise my kids be good to my husband I'll be good to my husband send him to go learn I'll send him to go learn what else do you want me to do that's why is gets such a big reward that's why because this is literally an extraordinary ability that literally any woman can have just like that and any woman can do Chu for just like that the question is are you gonna be that woman you see is telling us sometimes there are people that are ignorant and therefore they sin don't think that that's going to be a good excuse when you go up to shamai oh I didn't know okay great we'll give him geden anyway there's no such thing as geden or or Heaven for ignorance no such thing but the point being is if he or she is ignorant and therefore they sin that means that as soon as you give them information to tell them this is prohibited this is not allowed and they change sometimes right away sometimes step by step but needless to say they change good person keep teaching them keep helping them but if you see that this woman has been coming to your Shu week after week for months and for years and she still comes into the sh an extra few minutes late because she knows that when she comes in late all the guys look she knows that when she comes late with our new outfit everyone's going to appreciate the new outfit you have to do everything possible to get this person out of your life what do I do when such a thing happens I make sure they know not to ever do it again we had that one time happen wasn't a recurring thing but somebody decided we had a sh in Florida probably had something like uh I don't know maybe a 100 people in the Shu and uh we had a young a lot of young kids was one of our uh Torah challenge uh events had about 100 kids in there and there was a group of girls uh maybe uh 15 20 girls all of a sudden two guys that I know walk into the sh good half hour late good half hour late now usually I don't say anything about how you know people being late just came to this year it's better than you going to the night club in this particular case I made sure that they knew how did I make sure they knew because they walked in with two girls they probably picked up at I don't know at the zoo or the nightclub pretty much the same thing the second they walked in everyone including the girls couldn't stop staring at these two girls at that second that I saw literally the whole shift like as if they don't realize that I can see everybody's face I saw everybody's face shift and just stay this way at these two girls that practically came to the place with literally a oh happy at that second the lecture changed the lecture changed what did it change to it changed from what it was about I think it was about something all of a sudden the punishment for immodesty the punishment for priscu like literally anyone that was in that room all of a sudden just realized what what just did something just happen here and they made sure that they knew and a short little while later you know they obviously short seconds later they realized that everything I'm talking about is about them and if they ever want to come to sh again they're going to have to dress appropriately the reality is is that sometimes people are not ignorant sometimes they're very well aware of their crying they're very well aware of the truth but they're too addicted to this sin they're too addicted to the desire and they can't let it go or at least they think they can't let it go and that's a person you have to throw them out as fast as you can why there are too many good people waiting online looking to do chuva now does that mean that you can't help such a person surely you can there are even stories famous stories famous stories all Wicked people that did chuva there's one famous Wicked person by the name of abulafia a person by the name of abulafia that years ago was a famous mum used to be a religious Jew then he went off the D but went off to the in the highest capacity became a missionary against Jewish people but not the Christianity missionary just against Judaism hated Judaism there's some other in the world that are similar to him but he was in a higher capacity he would literally go to the government of the guim and go against this Jewish people to make sure that they arrest people and kill Jews literally led to the murder of countless Jews and he did it for years after doing it for something like 20 years 10 20 years long time killed a lot of Jews he was already around 50 years old at this time and said that suddenly one day he got some spark of Kusa that entered him and wouldn't leave all of a sudden he had this unbelievable uncontrollable desire just to do good and he wanted to do chuva he came to the rabbis and he said listen I'm really sorry I want to do chuva the rabbis knew his history knew this guy led to not just violating and doing all types of immoral things led to the murder of countless Jews they said go fly K get out of here you're impure impure we can't we can't trust such a person and they're right that's what is the guy's a missionary guy causes such damage can't help such a person kicked him out he knew that there's nothing nothing that he could do in this in this place he left the uh he left the city went to a different country went over there and uh went to the rabbi over there he says listen I want to uh do Chua I want to do this I want to be part of the community so the rabbi starts asking about him says sure sure I'll help you oh yeah of course this tell me a little bit about yourself and the guy was honest he says listen I made this crime and that crime and this crime and that crime and this was a big all of a sudden he becomes weak he says I can't help such a person get out of here out out I can't help you and he kicked him out also so this Abu Lafia went home and started crying hysterical to he really wanted to do which was Unreal so some type of Merit of his forefathers or something happened here obviously very unusual stories WR I learned from and he wants to do serious CH and he starts crying to and he says to every every single day for a year straight hem I'm not looking for you to put me in ganeden give me a reward get me out of Gom that I build for myself I'm not looking for that all I want is just for you to accept my apology to accept my chuva that's it even if you still put me in Gom even if I'm never going to see geden even if I'm going to continue having a horrible life as long as I know that eventually you're going to accept my CH that's enough of me even if I'm going to go to G I'm not going to G no reward for this it's still I I'll be happy M got to a very high level very high level very unusual and he did this every day with tears M Tears of Blood every single day after a year passed of doing this the uh that rejected him in the city that he was in I forget the name hasem forgive me he uh he had a uh b b mil for his grandson and uh him and his son both had a dream that night before the mil where someone told them one of the sages came to them and said to them listen tomorrow neither you or anyone else that you know are going to be the S holding the baby for theit so who's it going to be the only person you're allowed the only person you're allowed to put as a Sak to the is a person that as soon as you see that person you'll see a fire a Holy Fire coming out of their forehead and that's how they both both the father and the son both with had this dream next day a they tell each other oh yeah I had this dream oh yeah I had the same dream oh okay so so who's the guy so I don't know I thought it was you I thought it was you no I don't know startop looking in the room nothing nothing as it would happened they invited the entire Community they invited the entire Community to come to the so this ABIA got an invitation cuz they didn't know who he was they didn't know his name or anything like that he got an invitation to uh you know that this do there's an event there like not a personal invitation come to but there is a a the community should come okay so she said okay so I'll go he prayed to hasem and said okay maybe I'll go maybe there something for me to see at least something holy as soon as he walks into the synagogue D and his son both see him with fire spiritual fire that they are the only ones that could see coming out of his forehead I said Y come come come come come quickly quickly say what what me what what you want me come come come you're the S come sit down they put him down he he holds the baby so he has no idea what just happened and he said thank you for coming he says to them why why did you pick me and they tell him we both had a dream that we have to pick a person that has such a light he says I I don't know about any light of what you're talking about but do you guys know who I am he says no we don't know who you are he says I came to you a year ago I moved you from that other City because they rejected me over there after I killed so many people and I came to you a year ago telling you I want to do chva you told me no I can't can't help you you're uh lost case so they tell him so what have you been doing over this last year and he tells him every single day I do whatever I can and I cry to nonstop telling him just please accept my CH even if you put me in Gom and I never never go to heaven then the two said to him that you reached such a level that says in a place that stand even not get to you have reached such a level you are not only you highest level of obviously accepting to the showing how accepts the CH even though someone could be literally the worst person on planet Earth to the point where hasm says I don't want your says this is the only thing you are not allowed to listen to AEM on meaning that if he says I don't want anymore you still you go you become a in this regards meaning that you don't listen to hm and you do CH anyway and if you do Chu seriously eventually is going to accept you so here we see that obviously there's not that many stories like this or else we would have entire books about it but the point being is is that there are some people that are evil and they know that they're evil and they want to stay evil such people not allowed to teach them not allowed to befriend them not allowed to help them you have to stay away from them you have to stay away from them as far as possible why because these people are very very dangerous and they're untrustworthy and of course you're never going to know whether these people are ever going to change or not change and a person needs to know that they cannot put themselves at risk they can't put themselves at risk there's another story in the very famous uh and also in other where there was a well-known rich person that uh lived in a community probably similar to the community that lived at the time of Jeremiah Jeremiah lived at a time where literally your average person during that generation was a murderer rapist horrible horrible person literally just like awful awful people Wicked generation Wicked generation so much so that the page 16b 16b says that Jeremiah cursed those people that even if they give they were so wicked they were so wicked they forced them to waste seed or or or be uh or be raped they did all types of really really horrible things that even in this generation I don't think exists but point being is this generation at the time of Jeremiah which is right before the destruction of the BET m Jeremiah cursed the day he was born but along that he also cursed them to hasem saying the says says that uh even if they give even if they give let these Wicked people have theira go to Wicked people go to you know Pretenders people that pretend to be rabbis but in reality they you know people that have a long white beard they have a uh famous uh uh synagogue or or YouTube channel thousands or even millions of views but in reality the guy is a no is an adulterer is a pedophile he a filthy human being people like gu says let the wicked people let their takaka let their investments in Torah go to that guy this is by the way the reason why you're going to typically see the wicked people Prosper Prosper why because there is a curse on other Wicked people to go give their money to other Wicked people because to give to righteous people you have to have Merit you have to have Merit so anyway there are some people that are extremely Wicked so this was one you know wealthy guy who was a righteous guy and he lived among a lot of wicked people and he didn't have the ability to to move apparently had his business there and it was not like today where you could pretty pretty much work out of home and have any business you want in 15 minutes it's one of those times where you had something this is where it was or you know if you move you're simply giving up everything you have so he wasn't able to uh to move so easily but he wanted he had a daughter that was very righteous and he wanted his daughter to marry righteous so he went to a different city and he says to comes to the uh yes over there and he comes to the rabbi he says listen I need somebody that's your best tal but someone that simply has no interest whatsoever in society all he wants to do is learn toah I want him to marry my daughter the rabi said I have one guy like this who the guy oh this guy he's like well listen talks to the guy he's like listen I'll let you marry my daughter I'll pay for everything you'll have a house you have a mansion you'll have a personal chef everything you need one condition what's the condition you're not allowed to leave the house only learn toah you guys that's what I'm doing anyway okay but that's it it stays that way there's no problem you're going to pay for everything for me to learn to and live in luxury the rest of my life and on top of it I get to marry a beautiful girl righteous oh what a blessing okay so they struck the deal introduced him to his daughter his daughter liked it said okay yeah I'll marry this guy righteous guy not like today you introduce people and say oh yeah but I don't like his nose okay but I don't like her ears and I don't like this I don't like that before you know it sh number 37 and both of them are our are 37 years later and today people are too picky so what ended up happening they get married so the guy starts learning in the house fancy house Chef comes every day new dish new food after some time passes theid says you know I've been learning Torah nonstop let me go see what's in uh the town let me go see what's in the town so the father-in-law say oh hold on a second remember our deal remember our deal I said you're going to learn T year after year and no changes you stay in the house yeah but listen I understand what our deal is I'm not planning on going to uh stay outside and go to business I just want to see what's outside you know I have uh I learned a lot of toah I can impact people he says listen you can't impact these people these people are murderers rapists pedophiles worst people on planet Earth I'm telling you you can't these are horrible people these are not people that are open to change these are not people that are interested in Torah this is like a generation of Jeremiah type of people he says come on I learned a lot of to I have some strength give me a chance and he doesn't listen to the father-in-law I mean it's not a jail and he decides to go out and as you would have it the guy goes out he starts talking to some people in reality he wanted to have some friends so he finds some people to befriend him and uh he starts talking to them and you know little by little the father notices that he's studying less and he's changing a little bit and before he gets too far we have to nip this in the bud I got I got to do something to shock him I got to explain this to him he doesn't understand what's what's at risk so next day the guy is studying the father-in-law comes in he's like listen I'm sorry to bother you I have a question for you a question sure what's the question says we went to get nice a uh stew for for for you know for for celebration for Learning and everything problem is my uh my uh you know mid servant who's not Jewish she just went shopping for herself shopping for herself at the non kosher butcher and uh she went to go pick me up all the meat and everything but as you would have it because she went she had some of her meat she had one of our things and she uh one small piece one small piece of her uh pork that she bought fell or non Kosher meat I should say non Kosher meat fell into the uh the whole stew all stew that of ker meat so we don't know what to do throughout the whole thing he hold on let me see it so shows it to him sees this pot is enormous it's enough for to feed a 100 people tons and tons of meat 500 times the amount of the little piece that walked in that went in there because they can't tell which is the piece he says no no noen don't throw out anything why if n Kosher meat go into the kosher meet you don't know where it is but there's at least 60 times more it's accident not on purpose if it's on purpose the whole thing is forbidden but with an accident 60 times more the meat the stew is still is still allowed why it's between cancels out in 60 ah okay thank you very much now in reality the father-in-law knew all this why he's preparing for second day preparing for second day next it's so listen and celebration of your immense Tor knowy tells them I'm going to buy the entire thing and we're going to have a big celebration so they have a big celebration they buy the whole thing everybody eats a huge feast meat and so on and so forth you know in those days it wasn't so common very you know for people for the average person to eat meat especially not during the week but here they had a huge feast countless people everybody's having a good time B the next day the F law yeah yeah I'm sorry I'm sorry to bother you again but I wanted to give you an invitation what's an invitation I want to give you an in invitation to have another Feast like yesterday says what's the feast about yesterday I know Feast we celebrated T what are we feasting today says today we're feasting that I got such a good deal on the meat so the says what you you got such that's what you want to the feast goes yeah listen yesterday you taught me something extraordinary you taught me that that small piece of meat that small piece of meat if it was a little bit bigger meaning if there wasn't if there wasn't 60 times that if there wasn't 60 times that uh in in Kosher meat that little piece of meat if it was a a little bit bigger could impact all of them just from that little piece of meat so I thought to myself wow instead of buying every piece of steak for 20 $25 a pound cuz it's kosher let me go get a nice huge pig nice fat one too you know one of those four five 600 lb pigs put it get the guy to cook it up nice and then take a nice small little kosher piece of uh steak and throw it into the bucket and now we all about to have right now it's waiting for you a nice Feast with a delicious Pig but koser Pig though why I threw that piece of meat in there says oh what are you doing no no no you misunderstood it's not that the small piece the small piece of T of kosher is a uh can affect the uh the the the the kosher no it's not that the small piece can't affect can't affect such a uh massive amount of non kosher doesn't work that way that little piece of meat that was non kosher where where it went into the into the stew of kosher meat it's only the leniency to allow it because it's not enough there's not enough of it to impact the uh the kosher because there's so much more kosher but it's impossible for a small piece of kosher to impact so much Kos so much T so much Pig so much non kosher it's impossible for it so the father-in-law says to him your ears should listen to your mouth you're saying that a little bit of kosher cannot change a bunch of non kosher but yet you little you are going into a town that's not 60 times bigger than you but 6,000 times bigger than you and yet you think you're going to change the entire town even though your average person here is a criminal not just against God but against men too and you think that that's not going to change you instead of you changing them you're not noticing but they're making you they're making you T many times a person does not understand the risk at hand the risk at Hand by befriending people that are wicked in the name of helping them do chuva and the the fifth and the sixth B that follow the one that we just talked about discussed this too where he says the Torah tells us do not despair of Retribution house so this teaches that a the heart of a person who has sinned should be in fear every day not just if you sin today if you've sinned once in your life you should be in fear every single day even after you've done chba and he should constantly say to himself oi to me woe to me perhaps the Divine R retribution for my sins will befall me today or perhaps it will be tomorrow thus it emerges that he is in fear fear of Retribution every day and will dissuade him from sinning any further as we learned from the prophet job job the prophet says in job 3: 24 because I fear the Fright teaching us that job did not sin no he's called a person that was wholesome and upright and he feared God and shunned evil why why was he such an upright person and why did hasm give him such a test because he was such an upright person because he was upright as a result of his fear of hem and that caused him not to sin he says I didn't sin because I was I feared hem so here the uh teaches us what what's the conclusion don't become complacent in this world as retribution even in this world can come at any time so a person should never think of themselves as so righteous that the wicked people around you are not going to affect you you have to understand if you're going to help people do Chua you have to know that you have to do it in the way of the Torah which is just like the m m says thaton Aron he uh loved Shalom and Shalom and he brought to theah meaning what meaning that despite the fact that loved peace and he chased peace when he taught Torah he brought people to the Torah not the Torah two people meaning he never lowered the Torah to fit people's standards to fit people's low low low standards he never lowered the Torah if you're going to help people do chuva if you're going to help people learn Torah you have to teach the Torah 100% true version of it no other version no soft version no baby version no child version just the full truth as is now you're going to say wait but this is too high for them there is no too high for them you teach them what it says and let them decide for themselves what they want to take on don't lower yourself you're going to say wait but if if maybe if I lower it a little bit or if I play basketball with them a little bit I go to the movie with them a little bit I hang out with them a little bit have a couple of beers with them a little bit I do all this little bit little bit a little bit I become friends with them then they're goingon to want to do CH that's exactly what rman is saying that you should not do because that's what those modern people were doing that's what organizations in the modern Orthodox world are still doing to this day all types of organization B Brath ncsy uh all of these different organizations they cater to the younger people by how telling them we're going to go to trips we're going to go to Israel we're going to go to ski trips we're going to be boys and girls make a lot of sins but we're going to teach you some T we're going to have a Super Bowl party and a Thanksgiving party and a this party and that part buta we're going to teach you a little bit of Tor and what happens happens all types of sex crimes happen all types of happens all types of garbage happens no Chua happens the rare story of once in a blue one guy actually uh does chuva real chuva is few and far in between the amount of sins that are made why Torah is not taught that way in order to get good results the way you get good results is you do whated you do what says you do what says you do what says which is Torah is Torah you teach people the Torah you let them decide what's too high what's too this don't decide that everything is too high for them who are you to decide that the Torah is too high for anyone when you start befriending the public and you hang out with them and so on in essence you're lowering your stature to make people think that you're just like them now you may very well be just like them and therefore you shouldn't be teaching them in the first place but if you're not just like them and you're pretending to be just like them then aside from being a liar you're also being disingenuous in regards to the Torah itself why because you're presenting the Torah as if it's just a freefor all you could just do whatever you feel like it never such such a thing if you want to teach the Torah you have to teach the Torah the way it's supposed to be taught which is 100% truth give toov who's yov is give them the uncensored emit let them decide what they can handle what they can't handle all of those people that have sugarcoated the Torah and massage the Torah to fit and and and and and catered it to the public little by little they didn't realize something that the day of Retribution is coming even in this world how so they forgot that they themselves used to be Sinners and they figured that they have enough Merit that they could just teach all of these Wicked people without being armed now if you're teaching people the right Torah the Torah is going to protect you but if you're teaching the wrong Tor a Tor that's not a real Tor it's a t that you have decided that that's the Torah Tor is not going to protect you so those old sins come back to haunt you and those other people's sins start affecting you and little by little you start seeing these rabbis these people start getting affected by the wicked people that they teach and little by little become Wicked themselves I've seen this with my own eyes in certain people I saw there was one guy he started off fantastic years ago went to good Yesa had good teachers has good connections and so on and so forth one time they invited me to their Kila I went there I gave a shoe the people liked it everything was good later on people invited me again I went there and so there was much less people much less people I said okay I maybe busy this that the other thing as soon as I finished my shield I saw a bunch of people that I saw last time but they were coming to the place but not for me they were coming to see the rabbi and I it's kind of weird you were around you're available I didn't come oh no no the rabbi told us not to come why why not oh I don't know he just said that you know your way is not fit for everybody and I'm thinking to myself my way is not fit for everybody the guy that I'm talking to is drives to Sho on Shabbat every Shabbat for 10 years and little by little the picture developed the information developed and what ended up happening is that this Rabbi has been teaching this Kila for 15 years and for 15 years he never told him a single thing about not driving on Shabbat so much so that when I said it during the first sh that if you drive on Shabbat you're considered an idol worshipper that if you drive on Shabbat you're going to be death penalty so much so they all went to him after that first shield and said listen we come to you every single week every single week they have classes there with that Rabbi a few times a week and we learn everything with you and you told us it's perfectly fine that we drive on Shabbat we've asked you this before lat they they they they rallied around the guy he told us that everything's okay because we live far away this guy just came you brought him into this place this guy just came and uh he said to all Idol worshippers going to go to Gom so what's what who's right he says listen he doesn't really know what he's talking about I spoke to the biggest Rabbi and he told me that you guys are exception because you live far from the Sho and don't worry you're okay you continue driving and next time he comes because we already set it up next time he comes you don't come to the lecture because he's going to confuse you talking about me he taught them all types of garbage for so many years that eventually he became garbage himself that even when they wanted to do Chua there was a chance for them to do Chua he himself stopped him from doing it why because it would make him wrong and he couldn't deal with it now although he started off well leaving his home country leaving this leaving that making a sacrifice you know all for the sake of tah so on and so forth because he started catering the Torah to the people instead of bringing the people up to the Torah his Torah did not protect them and the sins of the others affected him and he became a bigger rash than the rest of his Kila and the rest of his Kila continues till this day driving on Shabbat week after week with no one even questioning anything no one even questioning anything this is a sad reality it's sad reality when people do not listen to the when people distort the T to their own likings and what they don't realize is that the Torah has extraordinary power if you listen to it a th% but that power that tah has will impact you will will be impacted if you surround yourself with the when you go out to War has an extraordinary story of the was when he's already in his later years he moved had to move because of all everything that was happening and uh in during the first world war was getting close to Rin and uh they had to uh they had to escape they had to escape deeper part into the country and they went into deep Russia and in Russia the on his first Shabbat there saw for the first time in his life a Shabbat someone a Jew violating Shabbat and he starts hysterical crying IM old man crying his D life risk he starts hysterical crying and his trying to calm him down they know he's crying why he crying for the what do you mean look what What's Happening Here what what is a Jew doing to himself he's separating himself from hasem and he's crying and then eventually comes down and goes back to shabbat goes back to learning T teaching t a week later again the sees again and this time he starts crying but not crying like last time much much more to the point where they can't stop him he just crying hysterical and they said please at least tell us something why are you crying so much more this week than last week answers them an answer that's worth a billion dollars for anyone who could understand it he said last week week when I saw a Jew violating Shabbat I cried for that Jew I cried for that Jew desecrating the Shabbat desecrating a kosh's name distancing himself away from his father in Heaven completely untying any connection to the creator of the world I cried for that but this week this week I started crying when I saw Jew violate because that's what you're supposed to do when you feel for but then I thought to myself to is to you is that since this is already the second time that you've seen you don't feel as much pain as you did last week and I said to myself is that was his name the is May you're ruined and I cry and I cry to myself as I realize I'm ruined why my sensitivity my sensitivity is already ruined why I saw it I saw Wicked people twice I've been around Wicked people for long enough I'm ruined this is the mind of theik this is the mind of the this is our it has the power to protect you it has the power to bring you extraordinary Joy but if you allow Wicked people to roam around your life on a regular basis and you do not Elevate those people to the Torah either because they're amalik and they refuse and they hate the tah or because you're simply deciding for them they can't handle it then those Wicked people will impact you and will turn you into them it's just a matter of time the only thing that you can do to protect yourself from Wicked people whether those Wicked people are family members friends Partners whatever it is only ways we've learned today one don't associate with him at all run away like the ram say says go to the desert that's not realistic for most people why you work in New York you work in Florida you work in England you work in Tel Aviv you work in different places Wicked people are everywhere so to disassociate from all of those people while being in the business World while even being in the in in in the Yesa from world still there's Wicked people everywhere to disassociate completely it's not realistic for most people now of course you could limit it you don't have to go to your uh cousin's house and your aunt a mixed wedding and all those things of course you limit that stuff but to eliminate it completely it's virtually impossible all you can do is contain it to some extent second part is that when it comes to Wicked people you can't run away from them completely second token you can't Embrace embrace them and and be close to them because then you're going to turn into a wicked person so what do you have to do you have to number one be selective if they're Wicked out of ignorance then try to Enlighten them with toah give them a CD give them a USB you go to be.org the store you order yourself some USBS you order yourself some CDs and you give it to people just like you would a business card always have something available to people that's the best thing I say also you should share links with them and share the videos with people but sometimes people want something tangible in their hand in order to take it seriously so they may end up watching the videos on the internet anyway but only because you gave them something tangible in their hand give them a CD give them a USB introduce them to the app and little by little you'll see some change why because we teach Torah that's Torah it's not Torah that's being catered to low or high people it's simply Torah it's tah as it's supposed to be Politically Incorrect politically correct those things are not part of our consideration what we think about is toah and toah only so if you have Wicked people that are wicked as a result of ignorance bring them up to the Torah bring them up to the Tor by providing the Torah either by you speaking it or by letting us do the job but if they're Wicked because they hate the Torah because they're openly homosexuals because they're amalik because they're literally these Psychopaths that call themselves rabbis and and and other types of fake religious people that distort the Torah and tell you you're allowed to do a bunch of things that are forbidden these people the amalik you have to run away from them and if that means you have to move then move if that means you have to break a partnership break a partnership if that means you have to get divorced get divorced why there is no fixing am there's no fixing amik they can fix themselves but you can't fix them and you don't have none of us have enough Torah strength to survive the battle none of us have enough Tora strength to survive the battle with amik none of us which means we have to save ourselves first save yourself first break off that relationship you could leave a CD for them you could send them a link links from a distance but to have a close relationship you meet them you talk to them coffee dinner all that stuff on a regular basis run away from that why it's only a matter of time before they impact you just like they did that Rabbi that used to be a good Rabbi but now today he's a fake Rabbi or many many other people I'm sure that many of the fake rabbis started off good but only over time became fake why they lowered the Torah and therefore the Torah did not protect him Torah is the only thing we have in the world it's the only thing that could help us in the world we have to protect it with all of our might the only way the only way that we can protect it with all of our might is if we don't change a single thing this is what tah says this is what our sages explain it says that's it this is what we comply with agree disagree it's not part of our consideration why there smarter than us they're holier than us they know more than us that's it let's just rely on them surely they ask the same questions as us surely they had similar difficulty to us they still continued and that's what the ston says listen you realize that the rambam was a genius even theim say he was one of the biggest Geniuses that ever lived you realize the G VNA was not called a g a genius you realize that the ramban the r the the the theit all of these Giants these are all the well-known Geniuses around the whole world not just in the Jewish World you realize that right so obviously they're Geniuses they're smarter than you right okay so if all of these smart Geniuses had the same questions as you and not only stuck to the tah but glued themselves to the Torah to the point where they wanted nothing else but tah isn't that enough isn't that enough of an indication of what's the right step for you to make if someone tells you no that may be a sign of amalik for that person if someone tells you you need more evidence than that that's definitely a sign of amalik why because it doesn't make sense the way we decide in life is not based on knowledge that we possess in most cases why because we don't have enough time to have knowledge about everything you don't have enough time to know everything about the building to know whether it's a good building so you rely on appraisers on Architects on engineers and so on and so forth you don't have enough time to know everything about the business so you rely on stock analyst on on research papers on a uh fund managers and so on and so forth before making an investment you don't have enough time to know everything about medicine to before you take the medicine to know you know you you rely on the doctor on the pharmacist on the uh on the pharmaceutical companies and so on and so forth you don't have enough time to know everything about practically anything we rely on Experts we rely on Experts whether we like it or we don't like it you may not like certain type of expert you may not like lawyers you may not like doctors you may not like government you may not like uh you know all types of other professionals but the bottom line is even if you don't like a lot of experts you still rely on many others all of us do we have to why because there's not enough time in a day for us to know everything about everything just not so just like we rely on experts in most things in our life it'd be behoves us to rely on the experts when it comes to the Torah the experts being the that toiled and toiled throughout their entire lives decade after decade day and night without breaks in order to not only know the truth but know it well enough that they can teach it to school children like us at a level that we could understand when you have people that are anti that those are people you have to run away from those are people that you have to Simply cut ties from why they're lost causes until they themselves Changed perhap by some miracle from Hashem like that person that we talked about today but you have to protect yourself if they're not quite that bad they're just ignorant tried to help them by bringing them the authentic toah as it is by bringing them the truth as it is and see how little by little they'll change just like we've had thousands upon thousands of people not only change themselves but tell me about how they changed their parents and their children and their uh cousins and friends and colleagues little by little every B cha that teaches tah authentically becomes a domino effect where they're building communities all over the world based on the Torah teachings that we have in Australia in India in Israel in the United States in practically every state in England in Canada in all of these countries you literally have one guy two people four people eight people and it keeps growing why they're simply listening to the tah and pressing shame sh exactly what you should be doing every time you watch our shim listen share if you could donate to support it that's also good too but even more important than any donation you could ever give share the lectures at least give people an opportunity to see the truth for the first time in their life and remove themselves from the status of amalik remove themselves from the status of being a lost cause share the lectures with people but in the meantime protect yourself don't put your life at risk meaning your spiritual life make sure that you do everything possible to save yourself and not bring yourselves down with everybody else this too will give us the strength to not only do more chuva ourselves but have the strength to help more and more of the right people du cha the people that want to do cha the people that want to change the people that are open to change and to run away from all of those Wicked amalik whether they have a beard and a hat or they don't whether they're male or female whether they were born religious or not doesn't really make a difference there are many many Wicked people out there that are working hard to destroy the Torah and everything that resembles it run away from those people don't watch their videos don't support them in any way the reason why is because anyone that supports those people whether it be financially or even by watching their videos and pressing like even if you don't press like giving them a more more confidence because they have another view attending the election so there's another seat taken up anyone that supports these Wicked people will be severely punished for being a partner in the crime you have to know that when we watch any of the short videos and clips uh of of different people that we expose we're not watching it for entertainment watching it like a research people watching it like doctors are watching a autopsy we're watching uh things in to in order to dissected to see what's right and wrong you should not be doing the same thing why you're not first of all you're not a public speaker number two there's really no reason for you because you have a limited amount of Torah time cuz you work cuz you do a lot of other things and also because you could hurt yourself by listening to a lot of this heresy and it could hurt you so be careful be careful with your K be careful with your learning be careful with that precious that you have wants each and every single one of us to get closer and closer to him and surely does not want us to put ourselves In Harm's Way we'll continue learning later this week or tomorrow tomorrow night we'll have the questions and answer session to stump to Rabbi prepare your questions and again a reminder for every everybody that wants to support the campaigns the uh go to our website.org or you go to the tun uh website for The Campaign tuna. live or the best thing in the world is uh always to watch our lectures and share our lectures from the app go to be.org getapp g t a p p download the app in Android or in a uh uh iPhone and share the lectures from the app because the app generates a link a unique link from the app so that way you're not only giving a person the fish to eat and be satiated with his spirituality but you're also teaching them how to fish by forcing him to download the app so he continue watching more and more lectures amen amen [Music] you know when you have a dream and you see a pretty woman you've had that and you never actually see an ugly woman in dreams it's always a pretty [Music] woman and by the way it's always the same woman for all of us [Music] all of us have a dream of the same [Music] exact and she's more dangerous than a Satan himself who is she you're not even allowed to say her [Music] name what are
