Halacha 11 & 12 - Negative Commands - Laws of Lashon Harah | Rabbi Alon Anava

[Music] we are in 11. the whole everything that we just read and wrote i mean he says wrote what we read in the previous remember all that we learned in the last couple days if not then you have to see the rerun but everything all these love him all these precepts that we went through he says here this is only when it's one on one that i am one person is talking one person is listening but if you attach yourself to a group of people he's saying a community a congregation a group of people that he calls them and shay resha people of evil people that they do horrible things and they we just said the word ballet remember before what i said baal means an owner ba leila that the is part of their life they own que now some people attach themselves to a certain group of people either to tell them rather to hear from them if it's to tell them that's one thing some people will attach themselves to a group and how would he get a popular in the group let me tell you some juicy stuff about your neighbor and that can be the other way around a person will attach himself to a group because he wants to hear the juicy stuff if this is the case over gamken a love now again let me just repeat the last 10 allah that we learned if you remember it's different loving different precepts i don't want to repeat it now but that's when it's one-on-one here is adding another love if i'm doing it with the intention to do it in the public in a group he transgress another love which one is that lo tie this can be found in the book of shemot chapter 23 verse bit verse 2. the the verse in hebrew says the translation you should not follow the majority for evil this is the precepts from the torah i'm not allowed to do that so take now all the what we learned in the last in that's one department of love him of precepts he when i add the group then i'm adding another love saying in other words this is a warning this is a warning do not gang up or get yourself connected to people he calls them hossein ave that they're doing wrong afghan rabbi even though it's a majority sometimes people say but the majority thinks that it doesn't matter if the majority thinks that if they're doing wrong don't don't be part of it here he continues now he just gives a different reference i'm gonna skip it because he's saying here about what he's saying now what we read now he sends us to a reference of rabbenu yona in one of his ma marim in the hillhote and he's giving a whole scenario here i'm actually going to choose to skip it right now because it's just uh it's uh i want to stay with the alaha so just to repeat this all the love him all the precepts that we learned before that since when one person and the other but if you now taking it to the next level and you attach yourself to a group of people that that's their agenda that's their nature and i know it sounds shocking but there are people that that's their that's their nature how can they slander this guy and gossip about that guy and that's all that's they talk and they totally totally think it's fine and you know where you find all of them on social media one person puts a a post and then you have everybody jumps into the conversation and oh i learned my lesson i think maybe 10 years ago when facebook first came out that i start i you know you go into arguments i saw that this is a pit without an end there's nobody to talk to because you're talking to keyboards you're not talking to a per person face to face which excuse how i'm going to express myself now that you can slap them across the face this is a keyboard and then you don't know who's hiding behind the keyboard so this is one of the biggest bits of lashonara but don't go to don't think it's only social media there are many shoes that that's the topic what he said and what she did and what he did and what he does and don't attach yourself to a group of people like that next by the way when i said next next not next topic 12. if the person is holding in a disagreement in a clocket in an argument by what he has to say now this is usually the case by the way when will come into the equation there's going to be a mcclocket here yesterday a rabbi who's like also a good friend text me and he told me that some individual that we both know very well is trying to come between us and that individual is going and bad-mouthing me to him him to me and and and i was just laughing and he says this individual is trying to make an argument between us saying that you said this i said this oh come on that's old news what are you listening to what are you listening to this it's just unbelievable how both of us were like i i can't believe it why are you trying to make a disagreement now i'm a clock between two rabbis why what what bothers you that you have to make a machoket a disagreement between us so of course there was a sonar involved here so here he says if you're holding in your head that is going to cause them a disagreement over odd love you transgress another precept another love which one this time this can be found in the book of bamidbar this is not anything made up this is from the torah itself this is the book of amid chapter 17 verse hey and the translation should not be like ko and his company this is a love from the torah you're not allowed to mimic or to go in the path of god what did god do gathered a bunch of people spoke about and ganged up against him and if you think that only happened 3 300 years ago i have bad news to you it happens every day and even amongst you and even where you live there are few people who might have titles like rabbis and others and they gang up against somebody else why i don't know why i actually don't know why but when a person does something like that that your lashonara is the cause of a mahloket then you have another love on your record you cannot and should not and be afraid of being in any type of a macho don't hold them a cloak it means a disagreement and he gives us a reference like it says in the talmud sanhedrin a page a hundred and ten and if you want go to page and dance and helen read the makhan over there what it's talking about but to conclude the two of the chords that we're now talking about the first one saying is bad but when you're taking it to the next level and you're making it a community thing then you have a bigger problem and we already said in allah six and seven that if one person hears me that's one time 50 people heard me that's 50 times now here am i making a whole party out of it and you know sometimes and listen i know very tempting when you hear some juicy stuff and you lean forward what did he say really here they he never smelled right for me this guy and therefore you know it and everybody is in the same place so this is one preset not to make a community thing out of it and the next one you are warned by the torah don't hang out with people like that before go far away from these people you hear already a group talking about somebody thank you so much was a pleasure to meet you i will see you somewhere else maybe not i don't want to see you if this is what you do i'm out of the game don't let the answer attempt you to come and hear the juicy stuff i know it's very very tempting but the juicy stuff is usually the recipe for problems and never needless to say that even if you have whatever lashona had to say about something be very careful this is going to bring a disagreement because sometimes it's one person that will say about two people and they will go into into an argument now you are really like that is another love from the torah you don't want to get yourself into this chunt pot and start cooking all sorts of dishes this is where problems start and needless to say you have to run away from it like like burning fire [Music] you
