do you have a hero like a celebrity that
you're all into I want to tell you why
that's dangerous in
and we start to get the generations from
Adam to Noah the 10 Generations seven
out of 10 are in this alyah and one of
those Generations is called Enos that
amam famously says that this is the
generation that started ID of worship
butash based on theuk rash says
something interesting here's what the
PUK says by his name
was and then he started to call out in
the name of Hashem doesn't that sound
beautiful he called out in the name of
Hashem that sounds so admirable and read
and he flips it to the
opposite hasem means they started to
desecrate the name of Hashem by calling
other people gods and as rash as the r
famously says he first they started
thinking that the the stars and the sun
were conduits to Hashem and then they
started worshiping images of the star
and the Suns and before you know that
became the idols and they didn't know
hashm was there anymore but why does the
PUK say it this
way the saying in a way that sounds so
innocent they started to call out in the
name of Hashem I think the p is teaching
a very important lesson once you start
to call other people and treat other
people and worship other people like
their gods it's very dangerous there's
no one who's a celebrity no one is
someone that should be worshiped
everybody's human yes there's people to
look up to there's people to learn from
you can learn from a lot of people
there's people that maybe there's parts
of them that you want to imitate but
don't worship anybody so the idea of
having celebrity on someone's wall or
the idea of talking about someone too
much all of that is dangerous because it
starts innocent and before you know you
put too much stock in a human being they
started by worshiping things that might
have been holy or might have made sense
and before you know it it turned out to
full-blown idol worship we as a Torah je
we worship Hashem nothing else everyone
else there's things to learn from but
there's no one to
[Music]
worship
