Shnayim Yomi - Miketz - D'var Torah

foreign [Music] has the very very famous dream about the seven fat cows and the Seven skinny cows and he is so upset that in the morning he calls all of his advisors and all of his horses and all of his men the necromancers and nobody can put paro's dream together again then the saramash game The Butler says oh I remember this boy who was in prison with me he can interpret your dream and they take you safe they run him out of the prison they shave him up put him on a nice Tom Ford suit stand him in front of Paro and he interprets his dream and he says it's going to be seven years of plenty and then seven years of famine and now you should do this brilliant thing called crop rotation and you should save some of the food for the bad years Paro is so impressed with Yosef that he says wow I'm going to make you the second in command of the whole country I'm Gonna Make You the Viceroy of Egypt and very simple question like perhaps you should make him the chief dream interpreter if you're gonna make him anything make him the dream interpreter and if you wanted to go even like gangbusters past that making the minister of Agriculture why would you take him and say oh wow this guy's so impressive I'm gonna make him second in command of Egypt that just doesn't stand to reason at all the idea is as follows yosef's ability to interpret dreams is not because he's some kind of crystal ball you know Palm Reader dream interpreter what Yosef understands is psychology your dream after all is your subconscious mind speaking to you and speaking for you so Paro knew that there was something really really interesting and deep-rooted troubling going on in his psychology but he couldn't put his finger on exactly what Yosef hears the dream it says Paro I'll tell you exactly what's happening you see your country falling apart the problem with the seven years of famine is that the famineers will be so bad that no one will even remember the good years we're going to have to be communist we're going to have to stand in breadlines for the better part of a decade the country's going to fall apart and therefore Paro says there's no one better than you Yosef the person who understands the depth of the psychology of the individual you're the guy that has to run this because only through some kind of concerted effort to get the entirety of the nation to function as one that's the only way we're ever going to pull through this and sure enough Yosef is able to Rally the country to come together and it doesn't just save the country but it catapults Egypt into an even larger Regional power because they have food where the others do not and they're able to take all the money from all the sides and grow the country that's why Paro makes him the Viceroy of the uh of the country of Egypt have an unbelievable Shabbos I want to say a brief word to you about shinaimyomi learning Torah is incredible learning gemara is amazing these words the words of the Hamish are hashem's words and he's talking to each and every one of us he's talking to you and he's talking to me setting aside just a little bit of time two to three minutes every single day to hear the words of God I promise you will change your life so Kola kavod for doing and may you enjoy and may you continue to grow thank you foreign [Music]
