Rabbi Aaron Dovid Poston: God 's presence will appear to whom and why?

[Music] good evening everyone we are parshat Vieira Lahiri a love Hashem God appeared to him by a low name Emre in the trees of mom Rhea and I'm sure your English translation says the plains of Mamre but we'll see why it really moves the trees of mom rain hooyo shave petal lol and he sat at the entrance of the tent to call my own in the heat of the day so the clea cart begins by explaining why it says a love God appeared unto him so the first thing that the clear car wants us to know is that it does not say that God appeared unto Avraham very strange I mean the fact that it says I've run several times you may pick up and we understand that God appeared to Abraham but the fact that it does say a love God appeared to him in the trees of malray and that's because the feesh Mowatt salute ohio's nothing that we do believe in a level of prophecy could refer Kadesh that when a parent names a child that is to a certain extent he that name is so fitting prophetically that is something he should live up to it tell you something about him but it's not him it's not his essence okay so you have your essence and you have your name which according to the clear car our Rama's name and Abraham's essence were two different things now I'll tell you how I actually translate this the feesh MOBOT salute oh how you Chanel 15 that his name which is external and his spiritual Constitution which is internal were very opposite completely opposite we know his name was Avraham and why was he caught Avraham so look at the first source on the sheets Genesis 17 both four and five they use the word of jamon going as for me behold my covenant is with you God says and you shall become the father of a multitude of Nations right Viet allaha Mongolian you will be and in the next verse thing your name stone Obama to be called of ROM but your name shall be called Abraham for I have made you the father of a multitude of Nations either Mongolian others father jamón means multitude going means Nations which teaches what that according to the bring the name is expressed as a father of a multitude of Nations it reflects authority as the clear car uses house Rara and the hip NOS boots which means royalty so here you have it in terms of his name it's a very high elitist high level name that's Muto but what about his essence would we know about his essence what did he call himself what did he say about himself I am fill in the blanks so if you go to verse chapter 18 verse 27 what does Avram say our from answered and said behold now I have commenced to speak to the Lord although I am dust and ashes in Hebrew and the Von Oki are far very far so that's what he called himself even if he referred to me my essence as something that we were considered to be very I'm gonna say lowly and humble okay if you consider yourself dust and that how small can you get right that's small and low as opposed to what we just said having authority and having royalty or be even the word to just understand the word royalty hit my suit the word I see is what we call Prince so hit my suit reflects royalty but it really means the so II when you married we discussed this being married means you carrying the other person it's to lift up the hybrid to be exalted so he had an exalted status as his name yet he considered himself very humble very low so ready for this you and I right I'm looking at the camera looking at you guys on skype what would we think very easily God will not have a relationship with me Who am I he'll only have relationships with the big and mighty powerful influential right perfected Siddiqui well what about me I'm not there yet no God appeared our love to him meaning the word to him is expressing that God will appear and have a relationship with anyone and everyone don't think that it's only those that are exalted so the clear car says kadai shallow Yahoo so people will not say sir coach Bartow who need I'll be ok I like a doily meets odd could do lot time that God appears only to the great the greatest of the greats because they're great what about us who aren't yet so great came lower our that's why the text does not say Hashem appeared to Abraham the yera Hashem L of rock doesn't say that in order to teach you what lejano shalom each said hello I'm not going near a lavash am not from the aspect that he was the father of a multitude multitude of Nations that God appeared to him but rather keen meets odd new who taught smooth over from the aspect of his essence of who really is and what is that key higher on earth he was humble and I love these two two words next together the two words together whoosh Wow Derek Schwab means lowly Darris means knees ok he was love me what does that mean me you know the word baraja right Baruch Hashem we were constantly blessing God that's what Jews do we're we're eternally grateful so when we think bow rule the rope really means the source and it also means your knees and it also means when I say the source we call a pool we call the spring a break high because it is the source of the water right the spring is the source of the water the pools where the water resides but the idea that Hashem is the Burrow where that wouldn't mean blessing you we're recognizing you are the source and if we're constantly in a state of blessing that happen we ever forget that he is the source so I think what it means Schwaab era that he was low of me he really was cognizant he was in a conscious state of knowing he is not the source and that Hashem is the source we lived through life and we kind of get confused and sometimes we do think that we are all-powerful Almighty I mean I don't know if anybody else felt that it you know five minutes of their lifetime or more but when you're constantly in a state a blessing Hashem one second I think that it it's very healthy and it will bring you to a state of God consciousness on a 24-hour you know seven day a week basis so this is similar to what the rabbi's have said in the gomorrah Shabbos and this is going to be a little bit interesting a little bit so far interesting so far it says that Enoch cottage vara who mushrikeen octo came out haha he bore a shear of enough God does not rest his divine presence he doesn't do well with a person unless he has these four attributes okay so I think it's worthwhile for us to figure out how we can accomplish this and bring these four attributes into our lives so the first thing is a haha a wise person a deep or a strong person a shear a wealthy person and I'm enough a humble person obviously this is brought in as to proof about Avraham being we know that he had a relationship with God that he was enough he was all four of these things how can we reach these levels it sounds like it could take a lifetime or maybe never well the truth be told the turret is not in heaven it's here on earth and it's a manual for living its instructions for living so when percaya vote the ethics of others are of our Father says who is wise someone who learns from everyone you can learn from everyone be open right don't think that let's say you're so much above anybody you can't learn from them of course you can learn from everyone what about a gebe or Pirkei avos says someone who is code hd8 sir who's able to conquer their inclinations right you have at least I do an inclination that tells me to do things that I know that go against the Torah so I have to conquer them so each time I conquer them I'm becoming stronger and stronger I'm wrong I'm a keyboard what about a shear I mean look you know you could play the lottery you can work very hard at sixteen hours a day sometimes and you'll never you'll never become rich so how is it that so the truth is the perky I vote also tells us what to be happy with your lot if news wealthy who's wealthy someone who is satisfied with whatever they have you hear that guys and what about enough any clue want to hear what you have to say me I am exceedingly humble all right so that's the real that's the real that's the real work it's a lot of work therefore it says in our Varsha Vidya all love that God appeared unto him this velox matado on account of the fact that he is his essence is humble Humaira Allah Inaba it reflects what we just spoke about the lobe abortion law and now on account of his name which is Myra Allah affair which actually reflects the opposite right his name is it 'no suit is surah authoritative and quite rural okay the truth be told that the clear car uses the next four words devar affair they have talked their de barkhor means alternatively many of our explanations are just different levels this level that he's gonna tell us seems to be completely opposite of what we just said it's not really opposite but on a certain level it is so let's see what he used to say do you remember in the beginning God appeared to him from the aspect that he was all wrong sorry I've run not Opera hot but of Ron that was his name before it was changed him appeal enigma Hashem Allah mitsuhirato Avram so he was Avram which means of laron now could mean the father of a particular geographical location but we're gonna translate as of the ROM as a mighty father he was the father to the mighty of ROM of Lyra the father to the rock so who are those roms who are the mighty man man oh man oh man massage me some tacos Gina he made converts he involved himself in bringing people away from idol worship he offered them a warm bed a hot super hot coffee and of course they wanted to pay he says nada I want you to thank the Lord in heaven right he introduced them to a relationship with God with the one true God of Israel the one who created the world and because he brought them in this is who he know he was of larog so God appeared to him from this aspect that he was the father of many converse now here we have a calling and father because it's dynamic Allu you love the clear car says as if he gave birth to them because the true nature of being born again you've heard right here man born again every morning we are born again and if you convert you are truly born again meet San hyah hyah habla coulomb niggler a lavash an because he was the father of all the converse that he made that's why I shall appeared to him it's a very high level I bless you all you should bring many many cup many many people to the truth of the world and you would be mildly blessed about meet sonnets Mutoh but from his real aspect of who he was wait till you hear this lo haré roi a dying he was not yet fit lyric finish Mina he wasn't yet fit to what to have that most intimate relationship with God the fish IRL who bow moon all right there's a little bit hard to digest but it was because he was not yet circumcised being uncircumcised is considered a blemish okay so we're not gonna go too deep into this but you understand that the concept of an oral this it's like a blockage it's a physical covering over the member and it represents and what it truly supposed to represent when we get circumcised is a constant reminder to circumcise our hearts so the fact is it's also very physical there is a true aspect of the physicality being circumcised and it's considered not yet perfected so until he was able to perfect himself God did not reveal his fullness Raksha so now in our parser that he's cooking he has now circumcised himself mera a love God did appear to him from his essence remember not because of his name but his essence but feeling we thought out to each other Lulla hora Sasa and you know what this teaches us Shamar zu the disappearance of God place of mob war kamila it was because of the risks it's because of the circumcision as the last comment we just made the Nira a lob a lone Imam RA and he appeared God appeared to him amongst the trees in the orchard of mom ray I know your books will say the plains of Mamre he will address that but the word for alone is a tree and although a is plural for trees and it the text says the Enloe name on right in the church amongst the trees of mom ring now what is Rashi say many other before she that mom Rae gave advice to opera what was the advice so there's two aspects that I'm aware of there could be more one was we're not really gonna deal with this was that what is better to be commanded and to do or to do even without being commanded and I've asked many people this question and logic dictates to say that of course doing it from your own free will is a much greater level but that's not the way the Talmud expresses and the kids of reason rather once you're commanded the inclination not to is stronger right you decide I want to give all my money away I'm gonna do whatever all kinds of charity work and you're it's very praiseworthy it's really a nice thing to do but the next day you decide you're not going so no big deal you know today you're into it tomorrow you're not but as soon as you're commanded there's automatically an inclination that says like we talked about I'm more powerful who you to tell me as soon as you're commanded there is this inclination and natural inclination to go against right we're all Mary here most of us are mad right so what happens when you know you've got to take the garbage out and then your wife says could you please take the garbage out now you when you were going to take the garbage out you're no big deal as soon as you tells you to take the garbage out it's like blocks you know come up okay maybe you can't be late maybe you get do your own your own examples so remember the Bruce Miele can only be done once so there is a tradition that Abraham kept all the Torah so the capital de Turin wasn't until 99 that he's got circumcised he could have kept the whole tour it certainly didn't keep Mila so apparently mom Rhea and him had this discussion what was better she know he knew that he should but the question is should be waiting to lose commanded or not so so mob brigades and mates are regarding that now what about what we're going to talk about what about where you know the Torah does not tell you where the circumcision is supposed to be done I don't mean geographically in the plains of Marbury I think it doesn't say which limb this is all by oral tradition okay Mira Shalimar Xindi Machinima it seems like we learned the idea that madre was the one the game advice because it says amongst the trees of mom rain the trees are plural Kia Palma who Harbor learning I think it's rhetorical what there was a time that he actually had a lot of cheese it could have just said a log mom ray it happened that God appeared to him in the tree of Marais Chiappa pichia alone iam Harbor ulama Marie it's true right okay now we understand that a lot of trees well you are layover aha meet posh team the coulomb the the tents of Abraham were spread amongst many of the trees that were there no question about that become a cub nevertheless he died because she taught because she hid posh aid though as if she cannot please brought but odo alone show you our ambience more shocking bow you know what it would have been enough if the shine of the light of the divine presence of God shown specifically in the one tree that was over Abraham's tent that he was dwelling in that would have been enough right so that it didn't it spread amongst all the trees of Mamre so the clear car says but certainty elevado the fish' - man raises scoot the hay that permits the simila it was male himself that had some type of merit and a portion in the midst of the circumcision that's why God appeared amongst his trees alchemy Russian Bicol Ilona me tubs that from this very reason named our God came the gay Rho a love for this very reason it also says God appeared to him in order that people would not say did you know that everyone got a bris Mila on the same day Avram had slaves he had a son named Ishmael he had many many men amongst his let's say clan they all got circumcised the same it wasn't just opera so people won't say Shem Akali laid a bait osha labrum he brought on alone 'i'm that other people might say mistakenly that God appeared amongst all the trees because the trees worse that's where the clan was underneath all the trees in that area the cool omni mullah and old them were circumcised I came Israel for a sham al Coulomb and people would say that's why the light of God shown on everyone the low bar for memory and they would never know about mom reading common law that's why it says that God appeared to him specifically him limb I'd call you lead a beso lumic not Cosmo in order to exclude all the other parts of his clan that God appeared to him and if that's the case fathers who to Shimomura garma and what was the cause maverick maverick gave the advice and I'll tell you not only when wait but also where on the member that we all know is where the circumcision is that the Covenant is on that member the attacking lomar now it's very possible to say by a lone a this is a Rashi this is the clear car explaining how everybody translates it as the as the plains of Mamre a plane is like a plateau it's a flat area he says no it's possible to say that the word alone a is not a language of MU Shar like a plateau a plane Ella Macomb Shia boat Elano show mama it just happens to be the place where the trees of Mamre were the okiya house in my and mr he says you can actually prove this for the worst war which I'm not sure if I brought down here but if you look at your own text okay I do have it number three on the source sheet please let a little water be taken invade your feet and recline under the tree so he's talking to these three angels he doesn't know that their angels per se at the beginning maybe he doesn't know at all but until they revealed themselves and he shot a new Taha's heights recline on their knees the tree is what he says to them okay you shop Allah knows how Bank and that's because there were a lot of trees but darjah cos alpha coz i'll tell us ready okay this is gonna get interesting Gomorrah Shabbos page 108 a benign lamella Heba Ultima comb from where do we know from where do we know that the bris mila is in that location meaning in that place on the body silence how do we know this guess what nem'ro or allah bolaños what is needed to be removed it's called Orla we translated his foreskin but in reality it also is referred to as a forbidden status of trees fruit trees in their first three years you it's forbidden to eat the fruit to benefit from the fruit of fruit trees for the first three years so it says the word or Allah by trees and it says the word or lahir by the circumcision Marla Hollow and Malcolm Joseph a rose so this is the logic that mom Ray was able to convince to say over to teach Abraham just like there it is the place that makes fruit or produce a kamila so - if it's true by trees trees fruit trees have produce they give off fruits so to the Mila is the place that gives off fruits that makes and produces you follow what I'm saying so far just nod your heads okay so we find in the measures so two measures raba cahaya abram the soup pot mahir honeymoon the measure says that Abram was in doubt he knew that he had to get at some point so he was in doubt where the Mila should take place on what part of the body even a path maybe it's the mouth circumcised your mouth why is that so far-fetched Oh Minh Hosen maybe I bet that's the least painful place I don't know me Olive maybe it means the heart open heart surgery alkane igloo or a sham I'll call how Allah knows that is why Hashem revealed his light on all the trees Kumari macomb as if to show this is the place saying his top kalbarri let us a look at these trees the tomb of me and you should learn from them kickers Rica Kabul to share our Malcolm shall set a rose that the prime place of the shine of the Lord the glory of Hashem was on the place which fruit is named produce comes from means al-ahmad hecka sh-should the kasdeya love kind me about mid circa from here you're able to learn a hectic Equis means a connection to what that this is where Hashem is seen in your flesh where the shine where the produce comes from inside Malcolm don't Mele Delano's from the aspect that it is a place that a similar to trees nevertheless there still remains a great question Lonnie history taught to Shaggy Leno Show mom Reagan what why do we need to know that they were the trees of Maverick and furthermore if I saw Bronco game she taught Shizuka all love come with a shed how did how did I brought act what did it wouldn't have run due before Hashem revealed himself his glory upon it a violation mom read not to no answer zoom Miss Florida with absolute certainty it was mom ray who gave to him advice based on logic Jamila Jamila Bamako shows appearance that the circumcision the Mila is to be done in a place that produces that gives off fruit we know these are children are are produce our children are our fruit the Hiskey mash em al Yadav listen to what he's saying that God actually was an agreement with mom ray and that's why he was through shaadi shanira Allah come on a sham bail on a Madre by Sheree showing and revealing himself in his glory in the trees of mom ray and through this everything is resolved we busy man you shall have a coke he perish it car who that's how the clear car ends this resolves everything and it's a very endearing explanation ok so we'll continue it extends the hooyo shave petcock ha have to call my own and he sat at the entrance of the tent in the heat of the day so what does this teach us hora shimmy Sinead study Mayan ruin eros finish Pina for two aspects there were two different reasons two different aspects why he was fit to see the divine presence if I don't one reason why he was there Xie Shah pet ahaha hell that he sat by the entrance of the tent Lee wrote a mere vulgar him in order to see if wait there's a there's guests would come what does that teach us the scoop Otsuka on the merit of giving charity on the merit of giving sadaqa a person is like that the rope'n esquina by doing mitzvahs by helping the poor people by helping the downtrodden by involving yourself you get to merit you understand what I'm saying you get to have an intimate relationship with God you get to see the face of the Divine Presence if you look in Psalms chapter 17 verse 15 you'll see a number four on the source sheet it says I will see your face with righteousness I know it's hard to understand what the English is even saying I need but Sebek I need I in my righteousness because that panaka get to see your face when I'm doing Siddhartha said ik when I'm when I'm doing setec when I'm behaving righteously setec specifically not nationally mishpokhe ascetic I get to how would you say to see your face to perceive so that's what the verse says now we're stuck with this one idea of it says can't call my own as the heat of the day in the heat of the day or as the heat of the day how does how do they translate it in the heat of the day but it's not if you look it since it's a cuff not a bets kick all my own huh like like the heat of the day it should say become high y'all in the heat of the day right there the Zen new shaft calf should kick home al now we're able to resolve something that should have bothered us and that's the calf of like the heat of the day kiha be Lee Lamar what it should have said was bit hung up in the heat of the day Elish Osaka mas a home huh shemesh he made his own actions he was passionate about doing sadaqa how would you translate that Kiesha osika mas a home my shemesh he made his actions he's Asik Amasa he made his action I think it means passion like the heat of the Sun which is what what is it about the Sun listen to this you're gonna go to malossi gimel I'm sorry you're gonna get a Malachi chapter 3 verse 20 where it talks about the Sun anticipates doing that the Sun wants to do righteousness and what Sun s UN not s o n so take your pen and make sure it says s UN Sun of righteousness look at the verse Malati Malachi 3:20 and the S UN the Sun of mercy shall rise with healing in its wings for you here fear my name then I will go forth and be as fat cats look at the Hebrew the Zarqa like em and I will shine for you Eurasian me those who fear my name shall sabka saath kaam the Sun of righteousness again that word charity well MA repair Kenneth fo and it's healing wings we talked before about blessings and curses we create our own blessings and our curse God doesn't change God doesn't want something one day decided giving you a broth ha the next day a curse one day a blessing one day a curse God is always like the Sun is giving off its heat if you read the rest of Malacca you'll see when you talk about how the same Sun will burn up the wicked it's the same Sun okay we talked about games a few examples you can have wax which is hard the Sun hits in and melts you can have an egg which is soft the Sun hits it it becomes hard it's the same Sun it has to do with us the receiving end what are we are we going to make our lives a blessing or a curse we have free choice god put in their hands really gonna do with it you want to be you want to reward you want the opposite you want to do good or you went through the opposite you wouldn't be right God even says I placed before you life and death I placed before you good and evil choose life it's like so simple that's like our whole choice in life okay it's not so simple I mean I should say it is simple it's just hard it's not so easy that life is not so easy but it is simple it comes down to one major if it was up to I'm like Who am I I mean we have all these great rabbis to tell you this is you know this is the the secret of life I'm not telling you the secret of life the Torah is telling you the secret of life okay and guess what it's becoz day Hashem is Baruch Hashem is rahat it's the mercy and the kindness and the good will of Hashem that the Sun shines and and what do we say we say this every Shabbat we can say at any time anyone it's in Psalms 136 and we say in this long list of things that were so grateful for remember the Jew what is Jimmy Jew means grateful from you da Leah and Rachel they knew they were gonna have 12 sons all together amongst the four mothers the two had maidens they knew that two prophetic vision they were gonna have twelve sons but they didn't they weren't pretty to know how many each could have so they assumed that'll probably be broken out quite evenly so when Leia had her fourth son she said I am so grateful I got more than either I deserve and she called him yoohoo da that's why Jews are called you Dean because we walk around with and over these exaggerated sense of gratitude not exaggerated in a false sense but in a real meaningful sense what's the first word we say while we're laying on our bed while our eyes are crusted over mother honey how grateful I am that's what we are even for the negatives right even for the troubles and the the tests and the paints that we go through because what they are they are our greatest friends that's what it's going to help us overcome and improve our lives through adversity and challenges so what does it say though you say Odinga doline in psalms 136 7 to whom to him may great luminaries what a luminary is the Sun and this and the moon for his kindness is eternal we are so grateful shady so we only discuss so far one aspect what it means to call my own the heat of the day kick on my own as if so were the first thing we said was the passion but also the anticipation of doing sadaqa like the Sun the Sun wants to heal it wants to heal the second Masaccio sharp bill my own Lavaca Shemesh mark bacon a fella alkyne high in mineral the gallows all up cover - am Lavaca Suhaila from the aspect that he said he happened to be sitting in the heat of the day that he was and you know that the Sun is healing there's a certain amount of vitamin D that you can get from pills and vitamins you got to get the real the real deal for free go and see the Sun it could be quite quite pleasurable I mean too much is not good right they say yeah I think the skin cancer god forbid but anyway that's why I came that's why he was thick - it was fitting for him to be revealed the God would revealed the glory of him to actually heal right he was in the process of healing so we have the myths that called beaker hauling visiting the sick hashem visited him while he was as we know the third day of the circumcision is the most difficult day of healing and pain and we're going to discuss that surely distraught to shimmer okay so that's a fact they scientifically they've proven it that there's a certain thing for vitamin K I don't know that much about it you can look it up but apparently you're the body of the child its newborn child that is d-day that it is excreted from wherever glands that he has that is the best for healing but it is also the most painful thing okay well Masha I'm rule now it says young Ashley Sheila Mila and we'd live me like oh I guess what the mattress tells us that this was the third day of the Brit Milah not the first day not the second thing that God revealed himself and we see the Angels came nearer Shabab Midrash zoos Photoshop Romney will be I'm a keeper in now there's two opinions usually this dough things when was the circumcision was it in Mossad or was it in Tishrei I mean this is a deep discussion because the discussion can go much further than that the day that Abraham was circumcised or the day that God visits him when was the world created was it Mesa or was it in Tishrei and when was the when will the future revelation take place the future salvation take place will it happen like it happened in Nissan or will it happen in in Tishrei when were the forefathers born when did they die so remember the mother's the four mothers that had a hard time conceiving when did they can see them remember their children born all those ideas relate to the same concept was it in Nissan or was it initiated we're not going to go deep into that now go and we'll try to focus on this one idea according to this mesh that Abram actually was circumcised on Yom Kippur and commotions long do they learn it from the verse if you look in chat and chapter 17 that means go backwards 26:17 26 it says on that very day was after I'm circumcised with Ishmael his son the Exxon I um has there I'm looking for it the answer I got mine said what does it mean that Smile is that where do you find that it's like that by Yom Kippur the same words appear but answer my Yama's that this is the day of Yom Kippur okay in Kaede Alcor Catalonia a laugh I shan't be on roshanda Mila therefore we know that God did not appear to God to Abraham on the first day of the circumcision which was Yom Kippur Chiara also super the Malatya mouth Kela Avram made a a meal for the angels and and gave them to eat right that doesn't happen on Yom Kippur okay so three days earlier God been 8 days so be slow awesome Allah hobby OMA who and also he told you know I told his wife the household let's get the house together already baked matzos do all these things so you don't do that on Yom Kippur so three days later okay that's all according to one opinion that it was in Nice in fishery but what about the other opinion that had happened in Nissan Cheryl Amanda amar Bo there's an opinion in Brindavan Madras Peru sapa Sakai Aquila mottos that he actually gave them to the Pesach offering and fed them options in came vada Laura tell javi Romney I'm its assertion but certainly he didn't want to love Iran he didn't want to pass them over from doing mrs. of God he wanted right the tip Sal Omar she owns a he already shouts up that song if you want to say it wasn't like the third day of past but it was pest luck itself if you want to say that this day was the first step that's not nevertheless we have a problem did you know you now had a cook like on Shabbat you know how to cook on your tooth you're not really allowed to cook except for young tooth you're allowed to cook for the sake of yontiff and that means only Jews are obligated remember non-jews are allowed to keep the Torah but they're not obligated so you now know how to cook a Jew cannot cook on your tooth for a non Jew so it's a little bit of a problem because who did a Braun think these angels actually were he actually thought they were our cousins down the street around the corner down the river I did a crap McCulloch oh hi Lorraine vastly beyond top literate going nevertheless it comes out if it's the first day of pest lock that they were cooking on young tip for the sake of the non Jew I just want you to know we have all the time non Jews at our table free on tooth because we do all the cooking beforehand okay we don't want to be bothered with cooking okay so and we so we're doing outreach and but that's not the hectare the hectare is it's not a hectare you do everything before any of no problem because we know they're coming we know their cover will come at home coming up Lulay I'm the soup Bach Sheva hate our r.v he you know he was he was in doubt perhaps they were actually Arabs they be sure the how are you how was he able to cook for them okay if they're angels again I'm having concern I'm either but they wouldn't even need to eat not only that I feel of how did he feed them how were they able to eat either way either way he chefs are thinking he thought maybe perhaps they were righteous Levada should be your reach on the Miele low Michelle this is proving whether it was the first day pass us or it was Yom Kippur it either way God did not appear to offer up on the first day of the meal I was only three days later that's the idea here three days later it's not to be a problem two days after Yom Kippur War three days after Pesach in the middle of Halle might elicit L I don't shop it's that thing that that year in came kasha the question is level of nickel up you'll be shot so why didn't God appeared to him on the first day why did God come and do beaker Holly visiting the sick when the third day Levada of latisha diet aimed a cave goggle coca because on the first day and I know I don't know I mean I had a circumcision I eight days old I remembered but he says certainly since the pain did not it was not so great or the first day he came gamba Shanee load niggler love even on the second day God didn't appeared in can be Amish Lee she only on the third day kiosk hot cave got off because that's when it hurts the most now go to chapter 34 verse 25 34 25 it's number nine now it came to pass on the third day when they were in pain the Jacob's two sons Shem and a lady demons brothers each took his sward and they came upon the city with confidence and they slew every male you know the story Dina our sister was walking out trying to do some air each and she got raped and these non Jews said hey we want to keep her they kidnapped her and tried to get jacob and the brothers hey let's all just have one happy family will marry you guys you'll marry our so you know what the brother said yeah yeah yeah right no okay you know we'll do we'll have this big marriage some ceremony but you have to get circumcised first so on the third day which is the most difficult day the one you're in most pain that I'm sure especially for an adult again I don't remember as a child and I've seen I have had sons of my own I don't remember specifically in the third day being extra painful but we'll take the word for it and they do that on the third day was most painful as the verse says by he be Amish Lee she biota means have a Muslera he t over so even though it was the most difficult day I would still say from what's the word from from logic she gamba Yomi shall be crow the God would still visit him on the first day even though it's not the most difficult for be Shane Hawk I've got a shock even though the pain was not so great Elleni mocchi only shown higher Yom Kippur a map a sock but from the aspect it were going to claim that the first day was either Yom Kippur Pesach I knew the maiden she hid the dr. Yahama cave Godot OBO tear that the most important day to do the beaker colleague to forgot to visit him or for us we have obligations we learn from God he visits the sick we also have the mitzvah to visit the sick and there are many laws for example perhaps only on the third day you should go visit somebody unless you're close family right someone goes in for a week to the hospital you don't need to visit them on the first day okay you don't need to visit them on the second day by the third day if you're just an acquaintance that's that's the most appropriate or day to go visit them okay okay we're dealing with the word your shave who your shave Hass active your shave should be smelled good love Shin Bet yo shave it is missing about the who your shade so what does it mean that I've ROM wanted to stand up he became our mode he's sitting right and he sees these three angels he also is God with him at what point does he want to stand up I'm below that his water clue God says sit shave like command shake the otter similar bunny huh you are actually a sign for your sons okay we'll talk about that shortly what does that mean I don't know if I have this here I do look at the page 3 was sitting it is written your shape without above and may therefore be read he sat he wished to stand the Holy One blessed be he said to him sit and I will stand can you imagine it God God's in your presence you want to stand god says sit I'm gonna stand and you will be a sight for your children that I am destined to stand in the congregation of the judges and they will sit in other words when we have a court and the three judges are sitting down God is present God stands in the divine assembly okay God is there he stands we sit sounds a little crazy but you saw it right you saw with your own eyes so the word shaved is a command and God says going to be a sign for your sons for your children the Jewish people the Coma Scale each time a mallomar a and anybody whose intelligence all the enlightened people will certainly be confused and not even know how to speak at this such a sight my meaning yeshiva zulia Sheva that day yawning what is after I'm sitting have to do with the future sinning of the judges love a hair lotion cos because she visited Nazca why did a push em appeared to him in this fashion in the way it was you know the having him sick specifically okay know me Ronnie that's what that's why the clear car says the following middle Oh his skip Amara's assume deep world Savoy that in his appearance it just has gotta be written there was no real speech or command vaad that tax lien my resume that absolute certainty the point of this appearance of God was Lara blow dear rishaad shadow to inform Abraham about the evil people in in Saddam you know that God actually wanted permission he wanted to inform Rob Rob and get his approval to overturn Saddam to kill many people now I've Rama what can he say now you know I'm gonna tell you something else you have these three men where do you think they came from you know that Saddam did not treat guests nicely this is like think about this if you ever heard we talk about people who are very cruel they have the wherewithal to help people and they just walk by they don't help they we say that's me that's though you walk by and you couldn't even simply help somebody you had the resources for example you're driving the car and someone's waving on the side of the road I'm not talking about a scary guy I'm talking about a woman whatever and you can help her maybe she needs help all used to do is open your car door and drive her to the next gas station or police station or whatever but you drive by its club meet us though I'll tell you how bad the people were over there you know they would they said you couldn't feed guests it was forbidden to feed guests so when it came to giving sadaqa these people who were partners they came to town and s for charity and they wrote their names on their coins and their paper bills they wrote their names why because they all gave charity with their names on it since when do you write your name on a dollar bill you when you expect to get it back but it was against the law to feed any of these people so the people came to town they got all the money and they couldn't spend it anywhere nobody would sell them a cheeseburger or a hamburger or anything nothing no pizza sorry we can't serve you so they died and then the people come back to take their money because it's got their name on it I mean this is how cruel these people were okay so these three guys coming out of the horizon this is also a simin that Saddam would not would not host them would not help them so tie this all into the picture now you got the scenario okay so certainly the point of God's appearing to Abraham was to inform him of the evil nature of the people of Saddam and that's why right in the middle the students got appears then behold three men are standing there meaning hot gnosis working this is the opportunity to help people and behold three men were standing over end this is the opportunity of a lifetime keao you deiay yeah scheme Abhirami McCulloh brotherhood that's at that moment Avraham agreed with God how folks at Saddam two overtone overturn Saddam should a barber happen if you read Ezekiel chapter 16 verse 49 I thought I had here yeah it's on page 7 number 13 this is what it says behold this was the iniquity of Saddam your sister pride abundance of bread and careless ease were her and her daughter's and she did not strengthen the hand of the poor and needy no this is your sister Saddam but she couldn't help the needy do you do a shallow rap the rug love blowing Ivo why would why would um pastor buys he been surprised on their feet wouldn't come he didn't expect that but all of a sudden the right yeah minimal oxen and the proof the truth is that these were not real people these were actually angels but in other words the the people already knew not to go to Saddam now or come in that direction should Russell retain a mock Sonya they wouldn't even give them and room at the end Richard Curtis borrow from the gallows LeBron God wanted to show to revealed a brand are you they I'm looking Shin is Dom new law that this is exactly what happens that the people Saddam are so evil they don't treat them they don't treat guests caddy were in the foot of his garage shallow you know leukemic Sonya right it was God knew right that they wouldn't give the Angels any place alkane yeh the ah dramas there therefore he informed a brown regarding this keypad in my oven kaalia that the truth is by judgment from heaven they deserved to be destroyed so it's Curro Curro flesh ma it makes a lot of sense and to say the following shallow Shiva Kadosh Baruch who based in that God sat he created a basement he sat down the court Shalom Allah base nischala Matta I launched a Saddam a court in heaven and a court here on earth regarding the judgment of the people of Saddam la saucepan mishpat luscom Vishnu batted in Ermelo to create judgment that should be a great agreement between the in this world and the court in heaven as it says later on if you read chapter 1924 in Genesis it says the Lord caused to rain down upon Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord from heaven woody but is this double length from the Lord from heaven the eighth Ashan miniature Maya I have to warn you I get excited and I lose my place you have to be patient with me here we are now any times it says waha shed him tear when it says and the Lord see how it says and the Lord to look into Hebrew Hashem whenever it says Vashem it means God and his court God also has a court so God and his court that's what now and then it says from Hashem from the Lord meaning should base denote lucky' who have mataró who made a Shanna it was the base then that took the rain that was from Hashem and it was Abram the hoshii the base - LaMotta and while Avraham sat in the court down here on this earth Kamath finish because Mark who Moshe best avos but then that God brings our forefathers to the on the court to be diony look at nifA chapter 4 I'm sorry Mika chapter 6 verse 2 he wrote mountains here ye o mountains the controversy of the Lord and you mighty ones who are the mighty ones the foundations of the earth so the Lord has a controversy with his people and with Israel he shall contend so whenever there's an issue there God puts together a court and who's on the court the mighty ones she will hurry there also Mountains the the forefathers are called mountains they timing they're also called the mighty ones they're also called the mice they are it's the foundation of the earth as it says in kazow in gomorrah Chamizal pay on the a b eb 9 verse aside to lhasa humor cutters world diorama in the future god will say they ran but that's a huh to your children have sinned like it says i Mikasa I mean the Avraham so I believe that is Genesis 18 verse 17 right shall I conceal from Abraham what I'm doing that's this is in the Torah it's a question I'm Mikasa I mean the Abram should I should I hide what I'm about to do no he he brought Abram to agree that they should be killed as well Kia dot Ivoire so Sadako mishpat he receivers ouya Himalaya madam Abra ultimately agreed that they were liable to death Yankee Lawson Sadako mishpokhe because they did not perform the kind acts nor did they have a system of justice kasha super me die young a checker shell Saddam like the story is told about the judges themselves who were liars Oh Yahoo or perhaps people would say may i freshen rom of among going after the fact that Abraham is the father of the multitude of Nations liya happy mascoutah muscles Beshara perhaps that the the the the verdict would be overturned on account of some type of what's the word like an agreement some kind of a compromise and that's what it means sadaqa o mishpat it says sadaqa which is righteousness which means judgment chiesa mishmash a spell to doctor what type of judgment has righteousness in it zip it sua that's always compromise the Akasha Hoshi Nosara Medina launches though but after God sat I run down to be part of this judgment as the judges that I am on the peoples of don't okay now will tarnish Bartok who shaved that's the word shaved not only you have to sit but this is a simin through your future the children that I to God at present when you sit and make judgment you are partners with God in creation when this judges are sitting and they're not corrupt and they're looking for the truth even if they make a mistake Hashem is part of the judgment process he stands while the judges sit and certainly what's explained in Rashi that Hashem is standing while they're sitting near Solomon's in mush nemuru yo shave it certainly learned from the fact that says who Yoshiki sat what about the word through who he it certainly seems extra behave and Leila neighbor because it could have said of Rahab sad from the very beginning like we learned in partial F with I which I don't have here the Aqua Abigail it made Marvin Gaye rail of Arshad and then right away it says God appeared to him but the who yo shave when it says he sat it comes to exclude the Sheena City we know it's our Bravo's sitting who yo shave is hull sir it's missing the love they're both missing above there's much little Russian of art it is there's reflection of a past tense word yo shave is not Savoy it's past tense does not future kela Marcia chefs are about sha-booyah that he should sit in a in a past tense but Akshar he doesn't have to sit right now he doesn't have to sit the car eBay Gallo shave the fact that we read yo shave in Cana called the mashallah he says it all fits together okay we're going to go for the Augusta we're going to try to pull it all together here so the reason for the matter cuz I'll say Pirkei avos cutters raraku God the Holy One blessed be he he's the witness the loop out then not only is God the witness he's also the well we have to bald in and Diane he is the one of the litigants and then me the prosecutor like the one who's taking you to court and the judge right he's everything alkane I'm gonna cut his brother food tequila that's why God stands at the beginning lo de lado she was brought bound in the a that because he is in the beginning at least one of the litigants and the witness they have to stand keep darkened by me the doctor they're the ones that are supposed to stand and I think we already saw this on me that chapter 6 verse 2 [Applause] Missa chapter 6 verse 2 did we just read that yeah number 15 right here the old mountain was the controversy of the Lord and you mighty was the foundation of the earth for the Lord has a controversy with his people and with Israel he shall content so he could certainly be the witness and one of the litigants that's why so god is one of the litigants is gonna contend with Israel Akeno ah that's why God's gonna stand today she Yuma do me metal shikou about did the aide D Namba me de we learned from this that the the witness and one of the litigants they have to be standing when they're judged like it says if you want to go to Deuteronomy chapter 19 verse 17 I don't think I have them in here okay so go to Deuteronomy chapter 19 verse 17 13% here we go this is in a case right you have a court case we don't mind interested in a single witness you need two witnesses if there's a false witness 17 then the two men and those who have agreed then stand before Hashem before the korneev and the judges will be in those days you notice right there you have a sham involved in the court but that's not the point the point is they're standing the judges are gonna say so here you have the case the alder snail machine Michele Emery right the two people that have the controversy amongst them have to stand after cough not sick of this bar food gamla Diane but at the end God is also gonna be a judge Yosh a blow a man I mean he actually sits with the judges lord have mercy Hashem sits with the judges and it says in Psalms chapter a b21 that's up okay it's right there the last one on the page a song that I saw God stands in the congregation of God what does it mean God stands in the congregation of God in the midst of the judges he will judge the congregation of God let's see what he says I lost my place there the shots have the this is the moment of the controversy the rotten udatha a dude and the claims and the witnesses is obviously talking about judgment after talk the caravel English folks within the congregation of God he should be judged yo shade they may have a show that God is amongst them in the midst of the judges he will judge there's a beautiful parish he did he ends by sings a parish a carbonate bath very honourable and precious explanation Avram was sitting because it was part of a court judging the people's to thumb yes later on they can come and what's the word bargain tried to make a compromise on how many people but that they deserve it yes they deserve it yes but where then we have to try to compromise so that's what ultimately the judge's job is to get the people who come to court to compromise okay so with that I'm going to just sign off and have and what wish everyone a great Shabbos [Music]
