because they had shabbos and sunday
it it's a natural feeling for many
people to feel
oh
again
voice i
it's not again
it's an opportunity
every time shabbos comes is an
opportunity
it's a highlight
those that
allow themselves to
get into shabbos to immerse themselves
in shabbos
by getting up early
but not sleeping the shabbos away and
not eating the shabbas away and not
talking the shabbas away
have
pleasure
delight
from shabbos
do you know what a shame shabbos used to
be
someone who watched the shabbos how do
you watch chaumer to watch the shoppers
they were up all friday night
watching the shoppers they couldn't lay
down to sleep
like to show you
the guard
for the
walls of yerushalayim
was up the entire time making sure
everything is they say that everything
is peaceful
this week
we also
had an opportunity
to reflect
on
the
call of the hour
the signs of the hour the happenings of
the hour and what's happening
in the world at large
we're experiencing and going through
inflation
war
and other issues that
as the rebbe
said
the world is shaking
and trembling
but
we as yet
know that
england
he's shying we have no one else to rely
on except
almighty
this has been time tested
in marketing
we look for a product that's time tested
that withstands
all kinds of ups and downs
tata the tera kadasha the holy there
is time tested
so
when a week like this comes and we just
received the toyota harvesting night
the story is
that the frida kedabba
was asked to do something by his
secretary
and the sec and the frida krebs said to
him
i still have not
come down i'm still on the mountain
that's the question
even if you landed
where is your essence where is the real
you
in the landing
part or the
the park the mountain
we know that the purpose
why hashem created us is to be on earth
to bring the mountain into the earth and
make of the earth and earthliness
mountain-like god-like heaven-like
but there is a time to to take some
reflection
to to rethink our values
and now
that schwarz
is passed
we have four months
sivan tamils of an elo
june july august september
to prepare for the next
set of yemen
the high holy days
of the
it's an abundant
amount of holidays
these four months
beginning with the summer months
which siddha says is the take of
hashemish
the strength of the sun it's very hot
all over
the sun represents
god where god's light shines in the
world
and it warms the world
so it warms us up
i share these things as part of our
weekly
history
program
and you might be wondering what's the
connection to history it sounds like a
a muslim speech or a hasidic speech
turret a torah var the torah speech
torres ideas
but the truth is
history is only as good
as those recording history
saying history and teaching history
otherwise it's
false history it's shabby history
i got a call yesterday from someone
who's writing a book
and i told him
and he tells me he has a lot of stories
and materials from from recordings
i said that's all good and fine but
that's not that's not the real history
that's just stories
that this person said and that person
said and three quarters of them are
probably
not true the way they are said
you need to really
delve into each story find out the
background
do research
then there's more authenticity to the
story
and this is an ongoing issue i can tell
you as a writer for 25 years
in particular last 10 15 years dealing
with books on
history jewish history
history about history lit history
spartak history
on and on
orthodoxy
one needs to really
go into the heart of the matter and it
takes a lot of work and a lot of time
but at the end
you have
some idea of
what's true and what's false
let us take this opportunity
this shabbos partials nursery
thereby in 1976 i was there
for praying from 1 30 till 7 in the
afternoon
and the reason was because
a great talmud hawker known as dying
mikhail fisher
from the london basin i believe
who was
raised in the lithuanian
yeshivas and was a leadfisher
litvak
he came i remember he sat behind the
river he had this
thursday night after us
and
they had a very heated discussion about
kiulei kaelin the the idea of how you
kosher
vessels
and they had a disagreement
and he came out of yahida's wedding
but amazed with the rebels knowledge
shabbos that ever continued
the the discussion that he had with him
and you see this endeavor also
shared for close to an hour and i recall
asking myself
while standing at the fabrengan near the
river behind the river
reber you've explained to us many times
how we should dissect and learn arashi
why are you repeating yourself
he went through the basics of how to go
about studying arashi and that rashi's
fundamental teaching is
i came to
address a question that even a
five-year-old would ask
that i've elaborated on that
everything else is secondary to that
principle and he shared other basic
fundamental teachings of how to learn
arashi
later i realized he was saying that
for the going for the genius of torah
sitting behind him who came from a
different world and didn't have that
approach to rashi
and that took the time
to explain it to him
and it was a very long for bringing it
was going on and on and on and on
there are times when we need to
elaborate
you know we're living in this quick
paced world
with all the gadgets
at our fingertips
shabbos
hashem there's no phones and no
computers
no tick tocks and no tick schmucks and
no
all the little social media issues and
programs shabbos
take the time to shabbos
to reflect on the message of shoes of
tata
to find a way of living this way for the
next four months
to implement the course of action
throughout the summer
and
of an elo of preparation for the young
and then
this weekend
this shabbos
just a weekend
it's not an end it's a beginning it's
shabbos the shabbos will be so special
to you
you'll have simcha and broco and giulia
but caught
