no and all of our all of and all of the
supporters uh that help us do everything
that we're doing lots of good things are
in the works uh lots of uh amazing plans
in the works that we're
implementing um also for those among you
that are um Hebrew uh speakers and
readers uh we uh last year around this
time last
year published a book uh which Full of
extraordinary Kim about the famous
poem uh and
um we uh we are about to release a new
version of it uh tonight or tomorrow uh
with the vowels with the Nik in it uh to
make it more fluid and easier to read uh
not the uh song itself only but the
commentary that he has which he brings
from many MIM and great sages it's a
very uh high level read uh it's not for
the average person but uh even Hebrew
speakers it's not the language is not
the issue uh but it's just really
sophisticated stuff uh and uh
extraordinary uh for those that are
already asking and will send me emails
what about the English
version uh we're working on it still
it's just uh tough to find the time to
do this along with everything else but
BM that too will will come out BM
soon uh aside from that the campaigns
for uh helping the poor continue uh we
have our uh Corona uh help campaign for
anyone that wants to continue helping us
help the poor people in Israel people
always ask me oh what about are you
still doing something for poor people in
Israel uh we always do it uh there's no
uh we never actually stop it's just that
uh it takes a lot of time and effort to
publicize every little thing that we do
uh so someone asked me the other day oh
you know maybe you want somebody that uh
you're helping for you could help for
Shabbat I said oh actually I just got a
video from one of our team members in
Israel that sent me a video from the
couple of families that uh we helped
them for Shabbat just last week uh so uh
there's constant help there's constant
money being given to the poor so anyone
that wants to that that's what's calling
them they like to help people that are
poor in Israel uh we always have a
campaign for that we're always helping
people on a regular basis uh we do our
best to make sure that we help uh
specifically uh more than uh normal the
uh people that are people that
are uh Torah Scholars uh and uh in some
cases make certain exceptions to do even
more than a traditional help depending
on certain cases but uh anyone that
wants to uh uh do that with us is more
than welcome you don't have to wait for
the holidays to donate to the poor uh
unfortunately they're poor all year
round so if they need our help we try to
help them throughout the whole year if
we have the ability B so that uh
campaign is still going um the other
thing is in regards to the t uh the
Russian version of the movie has been
released and it's already flying uh
apparently the the the Russian Community
has never seen anything like this and
there already tens of thousands of views
on that uh film in the Russian language
the uh the French uh German uh
Indonesian um Spanish Portuguese Hebrew
versions are all flying and and getting
tens of thousands of views the Turkish
is also doing extremely well uh of
course the English version is I believe
uh gone uh around a half a million views
on one channel and probably another uh
probably close to 100,000 on another
channel so between everything we're
approaching about a million and a half
uh views already if not more and it's
not just a uh you know views with uhma
like for nothing like just people
pressing uh you know view once and then
shut it off if you actually when we look
at the statistics of uh how much people
are watching just to give people that
are interested in this stuff an idea if
you remember I told you that when R FR
told me about this movie he said you
have to spend as much money as we
possibly can to make this movie go
everywhere I said why this more than
anything else he said because although
your personal story movie hashm took
back his millions has helped countless
people do Chua has reached a you know a
few million people and so on the reality
is that you know if somebody watches
five minutes or 10 minutes of that movie
they may or may not be be uh influence
to change their life because it depends
which five or 10 minutes they're
watching uh if it's uh towards the the
beginning it may be a little boring if
it's towards the end it's going to be
exciting if it's in the middle you know
it May Scare You a little bit but
nonetheless it depends where he said
with the tunait movie uh it doesn't
matter where you watch it whether it's
the first 10 minutes or the last five
minutes or the middle two minutes or it
doesn't really make a difference where
you press play you got to get people to
watch this thing for a few minutes and
uh if for anyone who knows the uh the
average video the average video video
online uh gets viewership of anywhere
between 1 to 8 minutes like if you're
getting 8 minutes of viewership on your
video You're considered uh you know uh
on the upper echelon in the YouTube
algorithm world uh they uh that's that's
really what they're looking for but most
people make short videos uh because
people don't have an attention span they
watch the video for two minutes and then
they finish uh but uh when it comes to
our videos our videos are known to have
a lot more viewership it's not everybody
watches to completion but we get very
high numbers with tunit we're breaking
all records uh you know we have a uh
across the all all all the channels uh
we're getting a viewership of over 21
minutes over 21 minutes uh of viewership
on average uh some channels are getting
maybe around uh 12 to 15 minutes some
channels are getting more
but uh we're averaging somewhere around
that 20 minute Mark which is
extraordinary because anyone that
watches that movie for 20 minutes it's
not possible not to change or to do
something and that's why you're also
going to see some people uh that don't
want to change take the initiative and
make bad comments and make fun and try
to uh cool everybody off because that's
the uh character traits of Amal is to
cool people off but no one can just
watch this thing for 20 minutes and not
do anything one can watch it for 5
minutes and not do anything so uh that
is getting a lot of views and also a lot
of people changing and we're getting a
flood of emails and messages and text
messages it's literally impossible to
keep up uh but we'll continue doing it
continue marketing it we're about to uh
uh launch a couple of new programs to
Market it in different markets and I um
and uh for anyone that wants to uh uh
contribute to that campaign we're still
in the uh infiny stages of marketing
this movie uh you know someone told me
the other day oh great we are we're over
a million views I said yeah bem I'm
hoping to get to over 200 million views
bem by the end of the year 200 million
views and aill billion views is good 200
million views is better uh so that's
that's what we're looking for and again
it's a people can say what they say it's
a uh you have to have big targets if
you're going to get somewhere in life
andem we have them because that's for
the sake of not for our Cav not for our
benefits but for the sake
of so uh that's another thing that's
another project that anyone that wants
to contribute to is more than welcome to
uh last but not least uh the uh there is
a lot of upgrades happening uh as we
speak on the app the app uh it's soon
going to have uh a download uh um
updated to it or added to it where
you're going to be able to download the
lectures so uh if you have a uh you know
a need to download the lecture and watch
it offline you'll have the ability to do
that b and there's also upgrades going
into the tuna website tab.org uh so
these are different things that people
need to use and should use uh to watch
the lectures and uh the more we see
people using the app the more we're
going to continue investing into it uh
where although the subscribers continue
to go up
uh still we see that there's a lot more
people watching the lectures elsewhere
which is okay it's not a sin or anything
it's just that I think that you'll get a
lot more focus when you watch it on the
app than if you watch it everywhere else
I mean I know that some people that
watch the live lecture on Facebook uh
most of the time don't watch the lecture
they just you know make friends they
make a lot of comments so it's a real
waste of time waste of two hours of your
life to watch a lecture and not actually
pay attention and take down notes and
commit things to memory but nonetheless
everybody every body has to choose for
themselves we can't you know uh spoon
feed everyone uh but I would recommend
trying to eliminate as many distractions
as possible by uh going and watching the
lectures if you're not watching it live
uh at least watch it on the uh app
because that's going to allow you to
have full focus and uh be able to uh uh
add this to your life uh so uh with that
being said we're going to continue this
series we're going to
do our best to complete this uh count
tonight uh and as far as uh the uh the
additional essays will decide uh you
know a later time but um in my you know
from from my perspective although I
think the most uh um you know full type
of teaching that we ever did and the
most extraordinary and and and uh uh
powerful teaching we ever did I still
believe is the P series
uh of over 170 lectures uh somewhere
around 400 hours of lectures that uh is
in there 450 hours of lectures uh most
people are scared to uh commit to uh to
watching that much they they uh
everybody wants the immediate
gratification uh and they like to watch
the clips and we provide the clips and
we provide the movies and we do all
those different things but I still think
that everybody needs to have a certain
uh you know uh structural type of uh
learning on a regular basis and uh this
this is the time of the year that people
learn uh but from my experience most
people that
learn uh in synagogues and different
things like that are learning them
superficially they read it maybe talk
about it for a minute or two and then
move on to the next mishna because they
just want to feel like they complete
something now if you're an absolute
beginner uh that's not necessarily a bad
idea but if you've already been uh
learning for a little while you've
already been uh you know uh uh
accustoming yourself to actually having
serious teachings then I would recommend
actually sitting throughout the entire
series of one lecture after another
perhaps maybe after uh several months or
even a year you'll complete the entire
series uh but you'll have a uh even if
it's two years but at least you'll
you'll complete the series and you'll
have a complete understanding of uh the
foundation of uh practically all M from
the
t uh from the written Tor the foundation
of is the book of
Deuteronomy uh but for uh you know for
the oral Torah the foundation of is of
course this is across the board all over
the and all over the oral Tora but the
is the teachings that took pieces of all
the different Mish from across the board
and the put it in one place and if
somebody studies that uh seriously it'll
impact their life in a very big way uh
so much so that um I uh recently heard
that the uh uh the uh the owner uh of
the uh New England Patriots football
team Bob
Craft uh you know he actually uh
committed the uh to memory because he
you know he learned it with his family
um as a child and to this day he says it
impacts his day-to-day life uh so uh and
he's uh obviously almost 80 years old
he's so for something like that to
impact his 80 years of life uh could
show you how you could apply it to
business to marriage and to everything
else so uh for anyone that uh just
studies it superficially and just uh
learns different things here and there
you're not really going to benefit out
of it so much or at least not to that
extent but with that being said as
extraordinary as the series is you know
where you could watch all of it for free
you could get a USB for it you could do
all those things as great as it is and
it's personally my favorite as far as
the the large teaching that we've done
by far the most exciting series we've
done in my opinion has been
this and the reason why uh is because
it's literally like seeing everything we
see in the world 80 years ago
but in front of our eyes today because
you're seeing everything that we see
today already happened already happened
and it's happening again and uh the uh
you know the the outcome of everything
will be uh better than it was before the
Holocaust but uh
nonetheless uh this is uh what schl
says in uh
seph in a book of Ecclesiastes chapter 3
where he
says uh in chapter 3 verse uh 14 and on
I realized that whatever God does will
endure forever nothing can be added to
it and nothing can be subtracted from it
and God has acted so that man should
stand in awe of him what has been
already
exists and what is to be has already
been and God always seeks the pursuit
see
here is telling us first and foremost
that the purpose of creation of hem
creating us is to have all of him to
have fear of him because if you fear God
you will serve God if you don't fear God
you will go against God just like just
like uh just like and just like all of
the wicked people throughout the
generations fear of the almighty is the
foundation of belief in the almighty but
nonetheless he says that what has been
has already exist and what is still to
be has already been all of the things
that we saw in the Holocaust or in
Spanish Inquisition all of the other
times throughout
history nothing new nothing new maybe
new packaging new colors but nonetheless
nothing has actually changed nothing new
Under the Sun and uh so seeing what rman
was crying out to the people you would
think that he's writing is during the
Holocaust itself meaning during the
actual camps but it's not this is years
before the Holocaust actually happened
he himself got murdered by the
Nazis in the Holocaust uh as we have the
testimony the eyewitness testimony from
The Who Saw and many and his son and
other sikim get murdered by the
nazisim uh but before that you know
throughout the whole process he uh
writes word for word what love wasman
said of how he took all of it uh you
know with a with happiness and uh you
know to serve a in such a way where he
told all of the people that were in line
to be murdered uh and burned alive uh he
told them we the the fire that will burn
us will give Merit to our
brothers in England and America
and uh for someone to have uh such a
death such a
Kem is is not something that happens at
a moment this is something that you
literally train for every day how do you
train for such a thing how do you train
to be murdered alive if you look at the
um at the uh uh mid uh
M by uh by RAB which is the
conversations that he had with the angel
the angel the mid that used to teach him
t uh you see constantly that the angel
promises to give rabf Caro his dream
what was his dream says if you do this
this and this I'll you know I'll make
sure that your dream is fulfilled what
was R's dream to die on Kem by being
martyred by getting slaughtered by the G
because he is defending the tah just
like IA and his friends so this is not
something that you and I typically think
oh yeah great yeah we're looking forward
to some Nazi killing us because we're
defending the to it's not a normal thing
for for for the average person to do but
this is what sikim want because they
know that first and foremost life is not
does not end here and second of all they
know the magnitude of dying a k going to
the highest level where the only person
that can get higher than someone that
died on kadem is a person that that does
K that's you know something
that's says and others uh but the point
being is is
that car's dream was that he's going to
die in
K uh by being martyred and this he
prepared for throughout his entire life
by uh praying to Hashem to to have him
do that but before he dies somebody uh
kills him because he's defending the
Torah not not dying because he's a Jew
but dying because he's defending the
Torah dying because of a Jew is
called that's uh surely it's a uh
significant thing it's like for example
a uh an Israeli soldier or a Jewish
Soldier dying in war it's called which
is a uh also a uh extraordinary Merit
but nowhere near the same thing uh not
even in the same world as dying on K you
know a lot of people like to throw the
term Kem and you know everyone dies in
kashem it's not true we have gone
through that Al with you guys
based on what the ram writes dying
because you're a Jew is not K it's not a
k it's dying because you defending the T
that's K but again it's a the point
being here is
that lived lived on K and died on K
and writes it in his writes it in his
sephel the destruction of Lithuanian Jew
jewry and uh you see how this is
something that is not some fairy tale
but actually eyewitnesses saw this
happening where he was literally giving
a lecture about dying on Kem and how to
make a blessing before you die you know
the average person is scared to go to uh
get a root canal you know you tell them
listen why don't you do the blessing
before you go to the doctor that
everything's going to go okay oh who can
think about blessing right now I'm about
to have a root canal uh oh okay fine all
right don't do blessing there what do
you tell
you imagine somebody knows that
someone's going to murder him because
he's defending the Torah because he's a
sadik makes a blessing gives a whole sh
a whole sh about it all the blessings
you have to do and so on and so forth
it's something out of this world it's
something you have to prepare before
your whole life and this is what Shalom
did but that
means that this entire count was written
before the Holocaust even though it
literally looks like he's writing it
during the Holocaust so imagine living
such a life where you have seen the
disaster that's coming you're crying out
to everybody telling them this is coming
the disaster is coming I see it with my
own eyes the saw the black clouds that
went over above Europe and he told them
that there streets are going to be full
of rivers of blood 9 years before the
Holocaust happened imagine seeing this
with your own eyes literally you're
living the disaster you're crying to
people to do chuva but to no avail
unfortunately what a nightmare that
would be not dying but living living
while no one wants to listen to you or
at least not enough people but this is a
extraordinary teaching for us to know
that we find ourselves in very similar
times if not exactly the
same where you have certain people that
love the truth and are willing to change
their life and even sometimes change
their religion and convert to Orthodox
Judaism in other cases abandon idolatry
become righteous noahides needless to
say abandon their uh zealousness to
money zealousness to uh to all of the
things of this world and use that all of
that strength that they have for the
sake of Torah and become righteous Jews
you're allowed to work you're allowed to
make money you're even allowed to be
successful but not at the cost of the
Tor not at the cost of T you have to
fulfill the entire T in
and cried this to the people day in day
out some people listen just like some
people listen today but unfortunately
some people not only they don't listen
and they don't want to change some
people even fight against it some people
even want everything to stay the same
because they themselves don't want to
change they themselves don't see a need
to change and therefore or they feel
like if everybody else is going to
change it'll hurt them in some way so
they fight it and unfortunately
sometimes those people claim to be
religious so it's very important to know
that everything that's happening in the
world today is nothing new nothing new
but unlike the second world war the uh
the the time before mashia the war at
the times of mhia is the last one it's
not going to be the uh you know a uh
something that's leading up to something
else it's the last one and everyone
needs to know that these are the things
that each and every Jew needs to live
with and and get prepare for and of
course anyone that loves hem anyone that
wants to uh have an opportunity to see
MH and live go to heaven has to prepare
for it already now whether the Messiah
arrives tomorrow or he arrives uh in a
few years from now whenever that time
comes the uh preparation already has to
start now
now told us about how he was surrounded
by different types of heretical teachers
some of them were the leaders of the
Zionist movement some of them were
unfortunately rabbis that called
themselves Orthodox some were reformed
some were conservative some were secular
Jews but nonetheless he was the world
was flooded with them just like today
where you have a lot of people with have
a nice smile and perhaps a few good
stories but when it comes to actually
helping people change their life and get
closer to not so much not so much so
this abai was a uh what he cried out
over the last year or so that we've been
doing this series where he said that the
uh reason why am is has not done chuva
and
merited to have mashia come in a good
way is because of the bad Shepherds the
bad leaders from across the uh the globe
and this is uh how we want to continue
where he brings us a verse a verse from
the Tor that
in where he says the
following on the
verse you are standing now here today
in Rashi
explains Rashi
explains that it's just the
suffering which give you performance and
existence before him meaning thatu is
telling is you are here
today and this is after he discussed
many of the punishments in
where he told them all of the different
horrible things that will happen to if
they don't follow What God
Says also has a few uh promises in there
as well and he's telling you are
standing here today and Rashi comes
Rashi almost 900 years
ago says that this
is not just a statement that's letting
us know that they were all in front of
mhu because that's obviously a given but
rather mosenu is trying to tell us
you're in this situation today you're
standing here before me today you have
heard all of the curses and the
blessings today
why
because it's just the suffering which
gives you the uh permanence and the
existence before him that all of the
difficulties that you have whether it's
Financial issues
anti-Semitism health problems all types
of difficulties that a person deals with
on a day-to-day basis that suffering
those as it's said in Hebrew
those that's actually what's giving you
the right to exist the
suffering this explanation
says is in accordance with the verse
that we see in the Book of Numbers chap
23:
21 he beheld no iniquity in
Yakov saw no sins in
yov this
means that hasem pays no regard to the
iniquities of isashi
says so on one end he says this
suffering that you're dealing with your
heart heart break your financial crisis
any type of Health crisis any type of uh
anxiety that's giving you the right to
exist on the other hand we have a verse
in the toah that says and Rashi comments
on it it says AEM didn't look at the
sins
of how can we understand says they're
both they're both in the T these things
you have one verse say this one verse is
the other it's the same exact Torah how
can we understand the meaning of these
two these these
words where the sages
say
anyone page 58 says anyone that says
that
a is liberal when it comes to punishment
meaning he lets go of things doesn't
care about your your
sins will get an additional punishment m
in the upper worlds where they'll have
extraordinary suffering bym is going to
rip their intestines out whatever that
means in that world meaning just for the
of thinking that hem doesn't care about
your sins and he's just going to let
them go that in itself is such a grave
sin that will earn that person an
additional
punishment so you have so
far Hashem tells us you're here today M
tells us the name of hem you're here
today Rashi says this is in essence
you're thinking about all the troubles
all the threats that Hashem in essence
promised all the suffering you've dealt
with so far the the the Holocaust and
Egypt all the different things okay that
is giving your right to exist on another
hand you had you
heard didn't look at the sins of yov not
yov himself but
and then we have a teaching that says
that anyone that says that there's no
that Hashem doesn't care about the sins
he's liberal about it he simply just
lets things go gets a punishment for it
how do all of this make
sense comments and says the following at
First Sight the verses seem to
contradict himself yet actually both are
words of emit words of the Living
God where hasem is telling us that he
does not seek to find the iniquities of
am he's not looking for our sins but
there is a Divine a definite Divine
rule that whoever does one sin makes for
himself an
accuser is not sitting there and sh like
some fools think having nothing to do
looking at each one of us oh look he did
that in oh look he did that oh yeah I'm
GNA get him yeah yeah he's gonna get
kailla for that one yeah he's gonna get
G for that one yeah you know what I'm
gonna take his money that's not the job
of doesn't do that he's not looking for
sins he's not looking for them so how
could you say that that agrees with what
it says Hashem is not looking didn't
look at the sins of yob
but at the same token you have a
teaching that says about the punishments
so how does that all make
sense we have a m says every single time
a person makes a sin he creates himself
an accuser in Ence creates himself a
demon creates himself some type of
mque everything that you do in the
world has some type of
reaction this is what it means when it
says
inph
that created Man In His Image created
Man In His Image maybe people think oh
yeah maybe it's like what the idol
worshippers in Christianity think that
uh God is a man no fools doesn't mean
that what it means dear people is
that created us in His image where aadh
himself does not have an image but in
order for us to be
identifiable as his children all of
mankind since he cannot create a body
for himself because that would make him
limited and that's in essence against
his own creation but rather he wants
people to identify this is my creation
first and foremost we were given the
ability to know right and wrong right
and wrong that's the first and foremost
you have the ability to know right and
wrong
that distinguishes you between you and
an animal that works purely off of
instinct that's why when people tell me
listen you know protecting your breed
not wasting seed that's impossible you
know it's healthy for you my teacher
told me my friends told me I'm told me
everybody told me listen if you're an
animal you're 100% right you cannot
control your desires You're simply
living on an instinct just like a dog a
dog cannot control himself a lion cannot
control himself they're all living off
Instinct they're hungry they're going to
eat the zebra they're are thirsty
they're going to drink even your drink
even if you're their Master that's just
the reality of things if they want a
mate they don't care if the other if the
female is married or not they're living
off of instinct if somebody comes in
their way they'll simply going to kill
them that's it that's Instinct if you're
an animal you're right you cannot
control your desires you have to do what
you have to do but you're not an animal
you created in the image of God meaning
you're able to control your desires
you're able to know right wrong and
thereby control your
desires but furthermore
what is telling us here in this Mish is
that he's telling us each Act creates
something just
like spoke and the world was created
anytime you do something you speak you
think not just something with your hands
or go somewhere which is the obvious and
you see what you've created but every
single time you do something something
happens even if you don't see it and
therefore the Mna explains each time you
make a Mitzvah you do something good you
create yourself a prosecutor someone
that's going to be a defendant I'm sorry
a defendant an Angel that's going to
defend you defend you against anyone
that wants to go against you he's going
to give you more strength to do more
good things any time you are uh make a
sin you are making yourself a prosecutor
a someone that's going to accuse you and
go against you call it a prosecutor call
it a demon a mque whatever you want to
call it bottom line is that being is
alive and well because you created it
through your actions now the reason why
rabf car writes in that there is no sin
worse than wasting seed is not because
technically wasting seed is worse than
desecrating Shabbat because desecrating
Shabbat is in essence denying hashem's
existence and him creating the world in
seven days whereas wasting seed is not
it's considered idolatry but it's not
exactly like the atheism a person is
simply addicted to it so why is R saying
in that there's no sin worse than
wasting seed because there's no sin that
creates more demons more accusers than
wasting seed while desecrating of
Shabbat you let's say turn on the car
you uh without without driving you made
one sin okay you made one sin you
created one demon you uh pressed the gas
you've lit a bunch of fires several
thousand fires you've created several
thousand demons okay you uh turn on the
light another demon you uh did all types
of things each time you're making one
two three if you're driving thousands
but with wasting seed a single action
literally makes millions of
accusers That's why nothing is worse
than that that's why it's very difficult
to do chba from it if somebody doesn't
have the willpower it's actually
impossible to do Chua for it if you
don't have the willpower it's impossible
to do cha for anything if you don't have
the willpower but the point being is is
that just like a
person does uh does sins and creates
himself an accuser when he creates when
he does mitv he creates a defendant
now is saying is that
here if we understand the depth of what
is telling us is that he's not he's
telling us that we are in front of him
today and we have to understand that all
of the suffering that we're enduring in
our day-to-day life and there's no such
person that doesn't suffer in their life
some days more some days
less but nonetheless everybody has some
type of suffering all of that suffering
is giving us a right to exist on the
other hand he's
saying I'm not looking for your sins so
what's the conclusion is telling us it's
not that he's looking for your sins but
rather you yourself created something as
a result of those sins you've created
yourself
accusers and since there is a definite
Divine rule in in the world that whoever
makes a sin makes himself an accuser the
accuser this demon
this uh prosecutor against you is a
living being and thereby he is not
silent and he tells hem what you've
done and proves the
fact over and over again each day says
to it when a person goes to sleep
the goes up in
sh not by itself but with all of the
angels of the demons that he
created and those beings that he created
or she created speak not that the person
says Hey listen I did bad today you
don't have to speak you're there you
report it's like being on probation you
report no one really knows no one really
cares what you're going to say and how
you're going to say it they want no
results what did you do you don't have
to speak in shamai why in this world
maybe you could fool the probation
officer you could fool the judge you
could feel fool the jury in sh you can't
fool nobody sharpen sh and the actual
evidence comes with you you did good
you'll have a bunch of angels next to
you you'll have a bunch of Ang Angels
next to you hey look AEM meet the 30,000
angels that I created today by donating
to kiru by praying by learning toah and
so on and so
forth and a person does not understand
the embarrassment that that Soul
has when it's not Angels but rather
prosecutors because of the sins that she
made because of the sins that he made so
it's not that a is looking for our sins
but rather it's just a
reality as a cause and as an effect this
is the effect
and since these different prosecutors
these accusers are not going to stay
quiet and they're not going to be
bribed says to compromise with the
accuser is
impossible because just like it says in
Proverbs chapter 29 verse
number4 for the king set up the world
with
judgment what does it mean for the king
set up the world with
judgment just as an Earthly
constitutions the judge cannot free the
accused even if he is his best friend so
long as the prosecutor brings Clear
Proof of guilt so is the way of the
Heavenly court so even if the judge is
your father your brother your best
friend from
childhood if the accuser
brings not just he said she said
testimony but video proof in every
single
direction of the actual crime that you
committed that best friend of yours has
to Simply
eliminate that bias that they have
because there's Justice
to
fulfill and just like it's that way in
this
world it's the same way in the upper
world this by the way is the reason why
R says in
Mna that aosh runs the world like a
business aadh who runs the world like a
business why because he knows that
everybody in this world is familiar with
business whether you're working for
somebody or you're employing a bunch of
people doesn't really make difference
everybody works everybody has the has
the understanding that if you work you
get paid you don't work you won't get
paid uh you know you have to do things
sometimes you like to sometimes you
don't like to but the real you have to
work hard you have to work late you have
to work early all of these different
things there's reward there is a uh
punishment there is a uh uh promotions
there's demotion is getting fired and so
on and so forth everyone understands the
concept of
work has this world in such a way that
he gives mankind different
ideas to not because he likes the
secular Court in fact anyone any Jew
that goes to secular Court by choice
when they could be going to a bed is a
Aus he's considered a heretic considered
100% a heretic and that action is
considered desecration of asm's name
which thear says the there's no way of
fixing while he's alive he has to start
fixing once he dies that's how grave the
sin of desecrating hashem's name going
to a secular court is desecration of
hashem's name now surely you'll find
sometimes you'll find some Jews go there
if they're going there because they
tried going to the uh Jewish Court which
is called the bedine and the other party
refused to go there or refused to comply
with the rules of the bedine and the
bedin gave them permission then they're
allowed to go to the secular court but
if they right away went to the secular
court it's a extraordinary sin
extraordinary sin that uh is is hard to
quantify hard to quantify such a
thing uh this also is a problem with
many other aspects not just in business
even when uh uh marriage issues or
divorces all types of issues you can't
just simply go to a secular Court just
just because you feel like it you have
to get permission from the uh uh the uh
the bedin to do such a thing because the
secular Court judges based on on their
own uh illogical way of doing things
where even if the secular court rules
the same way that uh the Torah would
rule it's still considered it's still
considered if you want money in a uh in
a secular court it's considered as if
you stole it so it's a very very
problematic issue that people are not
really aware of the magnitude but the
point is is why hasem allows such a
sinful thing to exist in the world a
place that he considers you entering it
is called you're not allowed to put a
mza on the door of a secular Court why
would hem allow such a place to exist if
he hates it so much why because this
will allow us to learn and understand
that just like there is a justice system
in this world let's not think that
there's not a justice system in the
upper worlds in hashem's world in the
world that uh that is
eternal and just like there is
defendants and prosecutors in this world
such as in the upper
world
now is simply telling us that as much as
he loves us as much as he loves his
creation as much as he loves his chosen
people it is impossible for him to
Simply recuse Us From Any of of the
issues that we've done for free it's not
possible just just because he loves us
just because we're uh smart just because
we're funny just because we're generous
if you have a sin there's a price for
that
sin why is there a price for that sin
because that sin is not just an act in a
vacuum it's not just an act just you did
it one time two three four five years
ago 10 years ago and that's it it's over
no until a person does chuva for that
particular sin that sin is walking
around with it every single day crying
to hm no when you going to punish him no
no when are you going to punish him look
he did he violated Shabbat you still
didn't kill him you said in you're going
to kill him every day every day every
day this thing doesn't
stop
and has time has a lot of time but not
forever why because your since he put
your n in a body that
restricts your timing you only have a
set amount of time in the world that was
already decided for you in sh before you
came to the world of how long you're
going to live and since already knows
how long each person is going to live he
knows how much time they need to do Chua
for that particular issue and how much
time they have left to live so when a
sees that a person is starting to run
out of time because he has a certain
amount of
sins and certain amount of time and
we're getting close let's say for
example he's supposed to live you know
70 years okay and it's going to take him
5 years to do CH for this issue big sin
that he did okay he has to learn let's
say death great Shabbat his whole life
and so on and so forth okay so now he
did this sin it's going to take him five
years not just because he has to just
keep Shabbat he has to learn Shabbat he
has to do a lot of different things it's
not just once he starts stop sinning
that's it it's over no he has to undo
the damage that he already did if you
have desecrated Shabbat for the first 50
years of your life now first 13 years
you're a child fine next seven years
from 13 to to to 20 for a guy or 12 to
20 for a girl that those are things that
hasm doesn't punish in this world but
nonetheless it does count to its sins
and it is going to be punished in the
next World if a person doesn't do chba
and now you have from 13 for a guy or 12
for a girl until let's say 50 now you're
talking about 37 38 years of desecration
of Shabbat now now you finally start
keeping Shabbat 50 years old Ma you
watch one of the lectures you did chat
you started keeping Shabbat you sto
driving on Shabbat you stopped uh uh
going to the mall you stopped doing all
these things that's great that's
fantastic now you live and they have
another 20 years let's say You're
supposed to live in this world for 70
years so you have another 20 years to
live and you're going to keep shabab for
those 20 years now that's great but
sometimes you're going to see somebody
starts doing Chua keeping MV everything
is good and 1 2 3 4 5 years into their
Chua
things start getting difficult all of a
sudden they start losing money all of a
sudden a little health issues all of a
sudden a lot of health issues all of a
sudden somebody that they know and care
about leaves this world a little too
early they have suffering why because
since
a
knows what sins you've made and how many
prosecutors you have against you for all
those 36 37 38 years of desecration of
Shabbat any also knows that you only
have another 20 years to live and you
need 5 or 10 years of
those to actually fix the past because
what you're doing now is good for today
but it doesn't eliminate the past that
bill is still there even though you ran
a bill every day you borrowed money
borrowed money borrowed money you never
had enough money to pay the uh the
bills now one day
you get a good job and that job is
enough to pay your bills that's great
but that doesn't eliminate the debt that
you've accumulated you still have to pay
that debt same concept here even if you
want the lotto that Lotto is good it's
in your bank but it doesn't
automatically pay off your debt you
still have to pay that debt same concept
here hasem runs the world like a
business you start keeping Shabbat you
stop wasting seed you uh you know stop
uh doing all types of different things
that hasm says is forbidden that's great
that's good from this point but there's
still a fixing that needs to be made for
the past why because those prosecutors
every day they go to Hashem and they say
look what she did for the first 38 years
of her life hasm says yes but she's
doing good now okay she's doing good now
that's good but I still have to be paid
I still have to be
paid so that's
why brings a person
suffering why because those suffering
start paying the bill because it's
either he brings you the suffering in
this world or the suffering in the next
World which is much more extraordinary
so a person starts losing money or
starts having all types of issues that
is actually giving him a right to
exist a right to exist if a if
everything goes smooth for a person it's
not usually a good sign so much so that
when R AKA thear says R AKA saw his saw
his
teacher hos he saw him on his
deathbed and while the
other that were also students
of were crying that their seph their
living seph teacher
Ros was dying was sick was suffering R
AKA was smiling say why are you smiling
R AKA he says because now I know that my
teacher a sadik
now you know that your teacher is a
sadik you didn't know he's a sadik until
now he says I was afraid that maybe my
teacher made some type of a sin and he's
getting paid his reward in this world
why because everything was going smooth
for him he was popular around the world
he was extraordinary scholar he was
successful everything was going good
there was no suffering so I was worried
that although he's righteous and he's
teaching us and everything he says AIT
maybe he made some type of sin that
Hashem got so angry that he paid him all
of his reward in this world but now that
I see him
suffering I know that
a wrote already this guy's a sadik he
just has a few minor things we have to
clean up before he arrives at the
Eternal
World SOA learned this from his teacher
suffering surely for us you see somebody
suffering you don't tell them listen
it's good that you're suffering don't do
that don't don't try this at home this
is for sikim that understood and the
teacher understood and the students
understood but the point being here is
is that here the is teaching us that
suffering that is talking
about that's giving us the right to
exist why is it giving us the right to
exist because it's pacifying the
prosecutors because we're paying them
one at a time 10 at a time 20 at a time
each time the person loses a little bit
of money gets a little bit of health
issues has any type of uh Agony of any
kind that's paying off all of that debt
from the past all of that debt from the
past and this is a very valuable payment
because you rather pay it in this world
or the next and not the
next and there is no such thing as not
having to pay it there has to be a
payment now suffering comes in all
shapes and sizes a person has to choose
their suffering they can either suffer
in by uh Simply Having all of the
agonies of the world that are normal
that everybody's aware of or they could
suffer in their in how
by self sacrifice for the sake of T
you're used to studying only an hour two
hours a night study three hours yeah but
that means I'm going to sleep only I'm
going to sleep an hour less exactly
that's Ming with neish you're used to
giving only $100 $200 $300 a month inaka
for the sake of to for the sake of kiru
give 500 yeah but if I give 500 I'm
going to barely make it each month
exactly yeah that's it exactly that's
the point that's that's the
sacrifice why should I do it do it for
yourself do it for yourself because
that's the suffering you're taking on
yourself that is extremely valuable why
because it's replacing suffering
of this world that's a different type of
suffering that you don't want it's
rather you come the suffering come in
money and not come in health you rather
the suffering come in learning toah and
not come in monetary issues and so on
and so
forth so when the
accusation
triumphs against
Shalom where there's so much so many
sins so many prosecutors against the
nation and demands total Annihilation
Shalom there's so many sins where so
many people are desecrating Shabbat so
many people are practically living a
life of idolatry either idolatry because
they have abandoned Judaism and become
atheist or they became Christians or
they became uh some other form of
religion or they are simply Heretics and
they don't believe in the tah and its
sages or they have practicing the Tah
but they're idolizing
money so much so that when you tell them
listen why don't you uh work a little
less you have money why don't you work a
little less and study a little bit more
there's uh this makes absolutely no
sense to them even though they have the
ability to do it they idolize money they
idolize money somebody told me today
that
uh the person has a uh heart problem a
heart problem
and uh the doctor just told him
listen your heart is uh instead of
working at a 100% it's working on
35% and it's deteriorating so you need
this medicine that's going to help you
at least keep it where it is and maybe
even improve the
situation okay fine what's medicine
tells them what the medicine is okay oh
but before you go the doctor tells him
this is the doctor before you go listen
right now you're at
35% if you wait a little bit you're
probably going to go down to 34 or 33%
and once you're at 33 34% the government
is going to give you a discount on the
medicine this was the ACT legitimate
100% advice of a
doctor telling this to a Jewish
n what is this 100% idol
worship why the doctor has no concept of
human life needless to say a Jewish life
even though he himself is a Jew the
doctor was telling him listen you're
going to if you go right now you're
going to have to pay a few hundred for
this medicine because you're not at that
you didn't you're not you're at that
line but you didn't cross it yet so if
you go now you're going to have to pay
full price for this medicine it's an
expensive medicine but if you wait a
little bit and your heart get gets worse
meaning in so many words you get closer
to dying and maybe even die but you'll
save a few hundred bucks ah what kind of
doctor shouldn't be a doctor should be a
financial adviser maybe an accountant or
perhaps you should work in a morg
because of all the people he kills on
such a person the
says the best of doctors goes to G such
a doctor goes to G why no concept of
human life he idolizes the money he
literally the patient to get worse so he
could save a few hundred bucks this is
he shouldn't be called doctor Mal Angel
of Death that's what he should be called
shouldn't be a doctor but in his mind
that was good Savvy advice because I
advised them to save some money this is
idolatry unfortunately many people have
abandon hasem the source of endless
to a broken sister as the prophet says
they idolize money because they think
they're the ones that save it or they're
the ones that make it they idolize
people they idolize sometimes rabbis
they idolize all types of stupid
things and such people are creating
prosecutors not just for themselves but
also for the nation of Israel
because all of is are part of each
other and each time one of us makes a
sin we have to look at it in such a way
that the rambam says we have now put all
of on the prosecutor side on the
negative side if we did a MIT we're
helping get to the positive
side now even if a person has made many
sins shouldn't give up shouldn't let go
next thing should be a mitvah why
because surely you could move better
side yeah but I just did another sin
okay stop it do chv that itself is a hug
mitvah that itself is a huge mitvah and
then do another mitvah make a blessing
on something uh you know do something
even if you do something you like you
like to eat fine go eat something but
before you eat make a
blessing simple you need to go to the
bathroom go to the bathroom after you go
to the bathroom make a blessing you have
five minutes between meetings turn on
the phone go to app press play on
anything you see every single second you
pay attention and listen to that to
isah 5 minutes could be literally 300
mitv 3,000 MIT depending on how much how
much you're learning and how much you
can apply in your life now that's a
break it's not a break it's a break for
perhaps your body but an elevation for
your n use your time wisely a person
understands such a thing knows that
there's prosecutors there's defendants
and when those prosecutors Triumph
against Shalom and they demand an
annihilation of the people and it
becomes
evident that this is Justified according
to the laws of
heaven when no refutation of these
arguments is to be found what can God do
says they're bringing the evidence
what's the evidence the existence of all
of these prosecutors that's the evidence
they only exist because the person
created them with their actions
so what could Hashem do there's no way
to say oh no they didn't do
it on the one hand says AEM must give
due consideration to the demands of the
prosecutors the accusers but on the
other hand there's a promise what's the
promise the prophet Malachi who some say
was from the uh story of
ping chapter 3 verse number six
makes a
promise makes a promise
to and he says the following I the Lord
cannot change and you the children of
yov I cannot
destroy
here promises the people of Israel one
of the many promises one of the many
times he makes this
promise I'm sorry that the um
says I'm AEM I didn't change and you the
sons of yov I didn't destroy you meaning
I won't destroy you it's promising us
that he will never
destroy so although the prosecutors that
are the evidence itself that are the
accusers that are the prosecutor that
are the unfortunately the the worst
thing in the world
are saying according to the Judgment
that's it
finished says yeah you're right but I
have made a promise so what do I what
does hasem do says therefore hasem STS
up brings just
like says that if does not do before
will send we send
them we send them send them Hitler we'll
send them uh a Saddam Hussein we'll send
them somebody that wants to annihilate
the Jewish people and torture
them God sets it up it's not somebody
that's so evil that he just comes up by
himself Hashem is the one that puts that
person in
power why he sets up a man
against to prosecute them to persecute
them with wrath and a Burning Anger
How could a loving
father put
Hitler in power and give him the
ability the desire and even the pleasure
to kill Jewish people people ask this
question all the time surely they're
unlearned about this topic at the very
least where was God during the
Holocaust anyone who says uh we can't
explain it
call him why it's explained literally in
the Tor not only is it explained
literally in the Torah it's even
prophesized in the Tor where says that's
exactly what he's going to do so much so
that anyone that looks at the count that
our own dear raim put
together every single thing that
happened in the
Holocaust has a verse in the Torah
has a verse in the Torah that says that
that's going to happen but not only that
when put that count
together he
didn't see what the what disaster went
through and then look for a
verse and say oh yeah this matches this
verse which is how many books have done
it over the years but rather the
opposite he saw a verse
in or one of these punishments that AEM
says that going to happen to is if we
abandon him he saw that there's a curse
and then he saw did this happen in the
Holocaust and for every single thing
every one of the curses there is a match
a story or sets of stories of people
eyewitnessing and living through or
dying
unfortunately from that punishment
itself from that punishment itself
that's how scary it is so anyone says we
don't know where God was on the
Holocaust why it's written in the tah
it's written 100% in the to it's
prophesies in the tah and says this is
the tool of
hem just like says that is sometimes the
staff and sometimes he's a stick the
staff is because he's directing us to
the right place the stick is to hit us
to make sure we're going because we've
gone the wrong direction that stick is
some typ called ham
sometimes
sometimes sometimes Hitler Sometimes
some other disaster that is trying to
kill the Jewish people but not just the
entire people could also be an
individual ham a person can have a
private
ham his landlord his boss his
competition the government person can
have a personal amount sent to him by
himself it's not that he's
unlucky sent it to
him there's no issue of luck here as the
as the
says if a person says that this is a
happen stance is all a matter of luck
bad luck or good luck that's an
additional punishment just for such a
thing cuz that is heretical to think
that such a thing as luck there's no
luck who's the designer the Creator and
the one that is running this world on a
second by on a in a minute every
everything is run by hm there is no
seconds says Hashem has time for
everything
Ecclesiastes hasem has time for
everything so
here we
see that is the one that sends
Hitler to do the evil that he's doing
Hitler is the one that choosing to do
the evil because he wants to do evil
Hashem is the one that allows him the
ability to do
it and that's why he gets punished it's
not justifying what he did Hashem will
punish Hitler and he's still punishing
Hitler and he's still punishing ham and
and Jesus and his followers and his
promoters and so on still punishing them
and will always punishing them because
they wanted to do the
evil but nonetheless
the reason why they had such power while
other people that were also evil didn't
have such power is because hem decided
to give this Haman the ability to do it
the money to do it the power to do it
the influence to do it the supporters to
do it while the other people he didn't
give it to them why because at the time
that this evil person that wanted to
kill a lot of
Jews Amel was doing good or at the very
least there wasn't enough prosecution
against
to all to to uh allow him to get that
permission so that evil person existed
and exists in every generation that's
what we say in P
that that in every generation there is
somebody that comes to destroy am to
hurt us but hem always saves us but
nonetheless they're they always exist
it's just that Hashem allows certain
people that power or not based on our
merits or our accusations
and this Haman persecutes them with the
Wrath and burning anger and a and what's
the whole purpose of all of this and
here's
the because on one end we said that
hasem is going to punish but on the
other hand it says that hhm doesn't look
for our sins hem loves us wants to save
us he promised us not to destroy
us so here's the key here's the key to
understanding all punishments in this
world all suffering in this this world
if you understand this you'll understand
all suffering that has ever happened to
or to you
individually now although there is
already what we've taught but this is
the most critical part so pay
attention although hasem sets up ham
against am who persecutes them with a
wrath and a Burning Anger as soon as am
is comes into the category of being
persecuted
so comes their
salvation why as soon as am is now
persecuted that brings their salvation
so just don't bring the the don't bring
the uh ham and we'll be okay no you
weren't okay when I didn't bring a man
you were sinning against me you were
driving on Shabbat you were marrying
non-jews you were
eating the were doing things against the
religious and the non-religious the same
exact problems when I didn't bring you
Aman you were destroying the
world on the other hand I brought you
Aman now all of a sudden everybody
humbled the guy was a billionaire but
now he's poor like everybody else the
guy was a Gib now he is scared to look
the wrong way because the Nazis is right
next to
him so now you became the persecuted now
you going to have the Salvation why why
should the Salvation come only after I
get get
suffering because of teaches us one of
the most extraordinary and fundamental
teachings in all of Judaism in the Torah
itself that if you do not understand
this you do not understand Judaism if
you do understand it you understand the
foundation of all
suffering one of hashem's
attributes is that hasem seeks the
persecuted here rabai
we have a
teaching chter 3 verse
15 the wisest man of
all aside from mhu the says but
nonetheless mhu wasn't really considered
100% man it was half angel half man
already with the Kusha that he arrived
at that he got to when
acquired tells
usim that hasem has
attributes and one of those attributes
is that he always
seeks someone that's being pursued
someone that's being
persecuted what if that person is evil
but is being
persecuted well if if you
look at the
midra chapter 27 section
five it says exactly what ran says here
where it says that hasem seeks to
persecuted even when the righteous man
is pursuing The Sinner
meaning hasem saves the person that's
persecuted even if he's being being
persecuted by a righteous person and he
himself is wicked the second he becomes
persecuted automatically he gains favor
in the eyes of
Hashem so then you're going to say wait
a minute so if he's a wacko crazy person
heretic RHA manipulates the toah
murderer rapist and so on and so forth
and a righteous person pursues him
hashem's going to save him how does that
make any sense Ah that's what we have to
understand if the righteous
person is going after the wicked but for
his own personal gain he is highlighting
the wicked person's wickedness because
he wants to become more popular he's
highlighting the wicked person's
wickedness because he's going to gain
monetarily he's high he's he's
highlighting the per the wicked person's
wickedness because he's going to become
more
popular and people going to like him and
so on and so forth then Hashem will make
the righteous person lose to the wicked
person why because the wicked person is
being pursued but if the righteous
person is pursuing the wicked not for
his own gain but rather for the sake and
the honor
of and to fulfill the T
surely will destroy that Wicked and give
the righteous person even more strength
so that's the key the key is that if
you're being pursued automatically you
gain favor in the eyes of hem because
that in itself is a huge payment to
destroy all of those persecutors all
those accusers that you've created
because of the sins so that itself is
one thing to understand
furthermore if you are now finding
yourself accusing other people because
you say oh this guy's bad that guy is
bad this guy's evil fine that's not
necessarily by itself a problem if
you're doing it for the right reason but
if you're calling out all of the evil P
people because it makes you feel good
about
yourself don't do it why you're hurting
yourself and in fact you're helping them
you're helping the wicked
people by going after them for your own
benefit monetary benefit ego benefit all
popularity benefit you are actually
helping the wicked
person don't do
it don't do it at all unless you could
do it right which is do it for the sake
of Hashem go against the wicked people
for the sake of Hashem and a person has
to be really really honest with
themselves to know whe why they're doing
what they're doing because when you
rebuke that person in synagogue because
the says in the r if you see somebody's
talking in
sh and you've told them to stop and they
refuse to stop this is the one time in
the Torah that you have full permission
and even recommendation from the rambam
to embarrass this person in public if
you embarrass a Jew in public for a uh
un without a reason you're
garbage You've Lost Your even if you
keep Shabbat and so on why now to
embarrass Jews in public not allowed to
unless you have a reason you have to
have a reason if that person is talking
in sh while they're
saying and so on the rambam says you're
allowed to embarrass this person in
public now before you go ahead and start
embarrassing anybody that squeaks in
your
sh ask yourself a question why am I
doing it am I doing it because I want
everybody to think I'm a tadik am I
doing it because I want everybody to be
scared of
me am I doing it for the right reason
for the sake
of or I'm doing
it because I
want to help the person to help the
community to sanctify k name why am I
doing it if you're doing it to for the
sake of
Hashem go ahead go for it but if you're
going to lie to yourself and say you're
doing it for the sake of hem but in
reality the second you do it Goosebumps
on your skin when you see people tell
you good job good job when you see his
face turn white like a
wall you're happy about it why he won't
do it again you like his embarrassment
you my friend have a very serious
problem why you have turned him into the
persecuted and you're not doing it for
the right reason so you have to make
sure many times abai this happens with
online comments online comments I've
told you time and time again if I was
you I would never make any comment on
the internet at all no hello no goodbye
no rebuke no nothing why cuz many times
you see people decide that they are
superheroes they're going to save the
world they see
somebody post a picture of themselves
perhaps it's not a modest picture what
do they do they make a whole essay
comment look you are this you are that
get know that and they'll throw my name
around in there or some other rabbi's
name out there much greater than I could
ever be and say you are the worst person
World public comment you my friend are
not doing the right thing why you could
have gone to that person privately told
them everything you wanted to say but
private the fact that you did it
publicly shows that you're not doing it
for the right reason because if you were
really looking to help them you would do
it privately because you're doing it
publicly shows that something stinks
here something stinks here and you've
turned them into the persecuted and you
are the prosecutor it's not a good thing
your rebuke LED you to sin it's not a
good rebuke you have to be honest with
yourself many people lie to themselves
many people lie to themselves or you see
sometimes people make comments they see
a lecture whether it's myself or some
other Rabbi I don't make hey Rabbi
listen I loved your lecture but you know
you made a mistake at 1 hour and 3
minutes you said it was Rabbi AKA but
really it was raban Gamel just want to
make sure everybody knows that because
he wants to pretend like he's such
aad no good no
good not because it led to the
embarrassment of the
rabbi that doesn't really matter real
Rabbi doesn't care oh you made a
mistake made mistake thank you for the
correction but you my friend showed that
you didn't do it for the right reason
because had you cared about the sacred
the T and the correction of you would go
to the rabbi directly and say Rabbi
listen at you one minute in seven
minutes one 1 hour and 7 minutes you
said it's it's really raan gel is there
enough Kamina meaning is there a reason
is there something that this does that
mean change the meaning of the story
most of the time the names don't change
in the meaning of the story so it
doesn't really make a difference but why
do people write it anyway because they
want to show people look I know even
more than the
rabbi but I don't want to come off
telling people I know more than a rabbi
so I want to say listen I love your
lecture but at 1 minute 7 1 hour seven
minutes you made a mistake like I'm on
to you I'm I'm checking your sources
Rabbi no good you're not doing the right
thing you have to be honest with
yourself you have to be honest with
yourself and someone wants to light to
themselves and they're really a little
cat but they want to pretend they're a
liing when they're looking in the mirror
fine go ahead live live a lie but the
reality
is our T tells us
he saves those that are persecuted which
means that if there's really an evil
person a wicked person a mistaken
person and you being the righteous
person but you do it the wrong way you
my friend are helping them become more
wicked you're not helping them do Chua
you're helping them become more wicked
because hasem seeks to help those that
are
persecuted but back to our issue at hand
that the reason why kadh sends us a
Hitler or ham or Bin Laden or anybody
like that is because that suffering that
persecution makes his dear people that
he promised them that he would never
destroy them the persecuted people and
since one of hashem's
traits is ATT tributes is to seek the
persecuted
now hasem has an answer to the charges
of the of the of the
accusers those sins that we created
those demons that we created those
prosecutors that we created from our
sins are saying yeah kill them kill them
go go
go but now that we've turned into the
persecuted people hasem says listen
you're right they made the sins that's
why you exist but now they're persecuted
and I have it's my
nature it's one of the rules of the
world it's one of the rules and Essence
that hasem has for himself to seek the
persecuted is is persecuted and
therefore they must be
helped and as much as the pers
persecution worsens by so much also grow
the hopes of our salvation and our
deliverance and if our suffering have
perfored reach such fearsome proportions
it is certain that Hashem seeks out the
persecuted such as we are
today here tells us something that is
literally the Lifesaver of am he says
there are times that you individually
have major issues suddenly you get a
notice from your boss you are not
delivering what we want even though
you've been with us for many years we're
firing you lost the job shortly after a
letter from the doctor listen something
serious came up on the last check I need
to see
you shortly later another letter shows
up IRS oh we've decided to audit you but
if you don't want to be audited just pay
us a zillion dollars for every single
dollar you've ever
made all of a sudden everybody's Chasing
You Chasing You Chasing
You Now you can break down like many
people do and lose all hope but if you
have this you have this you understand
first and foremost all of the suffering
that I have is good for me because it's
paying the bill for the sins that I've
made intentionally or unintentionally in
this world instead of paying for them
interal world because if I pay for them
in this world it could be simply a
letter that makes me want to die but I'm
not going to die because it's just a
letter and it's really not a final
situation it scares the hell out of me
but it's not really hell because if I do
get to pay the bill in the real world in
the Eternal world it's actually really
hell it's Gom it's for a long time so i'
rather get the letter I rather get the
accusation I rather get the
embarrassment I rather get all the
problems because I know this pays the
bill so that's number one so suffering
in that aspect is good because it's
paying the bill and there's no way to
escape the bill since I didn't enough T
since I didn't do enough K since I
didn't pay the bill in any other way
Hashem is doing me a favor by sending me
this suffering on the other hand even
more
great is that now that I got a letter
from him letter from him he embarrassed
me he yelled at me he made fun of me she
hates me this what everybody's like my
world is collapsing the worse it gets
the more I know I am literally one step
away from getting my personal
mhia one step away the worse it gets the
closer I am to the light because the
darker the tunnel is the the cave is the
closer I am to the to the
light that's how Hashem works why
because the more persecuted a person is
the
more feels in essence the the need in
order to fulfill his own uh his own
rules to actually save that person to
save that
person on a bigger level as a national
level the worst our situation
gets the closer we are to the Salvation
And even the final salvation this is
why the brisk
rebi when he heard that after the
Holocaust
1948 that was the founding of modern day
Israel the brisk araban started crying
he said rebby why why are you crying it
was wasn't a tears of joy it was tears
of
Agony they asked the brisker re why you
crying for
the he says because we were sure that
after such an annihilation of our people
such suffering to a unhuman
levels the killing of the babies the
killing of people for no reason the
tortures
the horrible horrible things that we
went through in the Holocaust we were
sure that with such
suffering the end of this will be the
Messiah so now that you're telling me
there's no Messiah but instead we get
land what so they can we wave the flag
build an army and a bunch of zionists
could run the place bunch of atheist
Heretics that hate the tah that's what
you want me to be happy about we were
sure the mhia was going to
come that's why he
cried that's why
manyik cried after the Holocaust because
they were certain the mashiach would
come with such
suffering this also is scary when you
really think about it
because the war of
Goog says
the which is the last war before mashia
comes will make the Holocaust look like
kindergarten
is you
see is that tah has taught
us that there is not only a Divine ruler
but it there's a Divine rule in how he
runs his
world and this suffering that each and
every one of us get on an individual or
a national level has a value and the
higher the suffering the worse things
get for us the closer we are to
salvation but then we
have something that's a little
scarier which is the fact that the Torah
promises some curses of what does it
mean when things get
worse
in chapter 26 verse
17 the verse says
that you're running but there's no one
Chasing
You by Epstein who was a
giant huge sadik but was under
underrated during his day because he was
a banker also people think that all
and Scholars were all just learning to
all day all night no many of them had
jobs had a store the uh Epstein was a
banker and they uh the many of theik
that you see throughout all of history
had jobs had work and nonetheless they
still excelled in Tor today it's
obviously much more difficult for many
people to do both but nonetheless just
because somebody works doesn't mean that
they're absolved from being a Torah
scholar each one of us has our own
abilities and gifts that hasm gave us
and we just simply have to make the uh
Torah
priority
but says that epin was such a sadik he
went through the Holocaust he went
through the Holocaust but he was such a
sadik that every people I witnessed I
witnessed what happened to him in
Holocaust every time a Nazi
amalik came to bother him instantly as
he got closer to him he went
crazy the Nazi went crazy well after a
bunch of them went crazy they just
simply decided to leave him alone leave
him alone whatever he's here he's in the
camp s alone anytime a Nazi came next to
him the Kad that he had this Banker Sage
that we had Among Us not too long ago
was literally scaring anything that was
next to it without him saying a word
soin wrote a
extraordinary called where he shows
where everything that's written in an
oral
T where it is in the
in to show that the oral T everything
that's mentioned there there is a verse
that corresponds with it that it's all
one
tah and in there he writes a comment or
has a question on the verse
in the one of the scariest parot in the
five books of
Moses and he says this is an unusual
curse where hasem says that we will be
chased but no one's chasing
us why is it such a curse now on one
hand you could understand it in a simple
way which I've explained in the past
this is
anxiety people sometimes s have anxiety
for no reason whatsoever no reason she
wakes up anxious what's wrong nothing so
why you crying I don't
know I don't understand you're crying
yes what's leading you to cry I don't
know why don't you know I'm very anxious
about what I'm not sure that's a curse
and I mean it's also hormones but
nonetheless if a person does this on a
regular basis it's uh it's a little bit
of a
curse not only to be married to such a
person but also to be that person
imagine imagine being a person you're
just crying for no reason sometimes
people are worried they have anxiety
about what money you have a job yes how
much do you make I make good money make
50 100 200 oh great so why you worried
about money I don't know if I don't know
how long my career is going to last what
do you mean how long you been working
for this company five years is the
company going out of business no we're
doing better than
ever uh they want to fire you no I'm
actually I just got a promotion so why
are you worried of not having a
job CU it doesn't add up with the
company doing good you got a promotion
and you already have longevity of there
for 5 years what's the problem I don't
know things can change and the guy
smokes 87 cigarettes a day and he can't
go to sleep at night and he's constantly
scratching himself and he's pulling
hairs out of his arms and he's got
anxiety like he has has he looks like he
has a disease what is that it's a curse
it's a curse from the toah that's
anxiety that's a curse but it gets worse
than that when it's on a national
level a bunch of
people will be running from an
enemy the Tora says doesn't
exist they're running they're scared to
death but the curs is the enemy doesn't
exist it doesn't exist
that's the curse andin
says why is this such a curse okay so
they all have an anxiety
problem
now on one end you can say that although
anti-Semitism is very much a real
thing it exists in the world there are
some
people that have never experienced
anti-semitism but simply say it's
anti-Semitism anytime somebody says
something to them that perhaps is a
disagreement they think that if you
don't like Zionism you're anti-semitic
that doesn't mean you're
anti-semitic doesn't mean you're
anti-semitic if you're really a Torah
living Jew you don't like Zionism why
because Zionism is anti Torah doesn't
make you anti-semitic especially if
you're a
Jew but nonetheless people believe that
because they connected to so much
furthermore some people have
organizations their entire
organization's entire purpose is to
fight anti-Semitism where are you
fighting fighting anti-Semitism today uh
well we're looking for it wait so you're
telling me you're looking for
anti-Semitism to fight you don't
actually have anti-Semitism to fight
like nothing happened today well we
haven't seen it yet so you're fighting
an enemy that you're actually looking
for I mean it's kind of weird
usually the enemy comes to
you but that's what happens with some
people and they get millions and
billions of dollars donated to them to
fight this
anti-semitic ghost in many cases but
that once twice three times a year or
sometimes more depending on a horrible
situation is they'll see one Jew getting
beat up or 15 Jews getting beat up at a
certain location in New York or in
Florida or in something else and they're
going to highlight it on their side on
their marketing as if it happened to
them yeah we're raising money to fight
anti-Semitism how he already got beat up
how is you raising a million dollars
going to fight him getting beat up did
you give him the million dollars no did
you give his parents the money no did
you give his wife the money no what' you
do with the money to help him he got
beat up he got hurt what did you do with
the money to help him we're fighting
anti-Semitism how no one knows no one
knows what are they doing they're having
more what protest no no we won't go
where you going where you going to go we
don't want anti-Semitism so what what do
you think your enemy is watching the
protest and cares what you're saying
that you don't want anti-Semitism what
do you think a bunch of Nazis are
sitting there worried at home and along
right next to the Arab Muslims that want
to kill us right next to all the other
people that want to kill us they're all
sitting there in their living room oh
wow look at these Jewish people they wow
they have a protest look like 5,000 of
them showed up oh hey Hitler we can't do
this anymore Mustafa you sure we have to
stop right away maybe we'll do chuva
let's watch Rabbi ruven see what he says
like what do you think people do you
think the enemies actually sit there and
say we're not going to be anti-semitic
because you have a protest like is
somebody really that stupid that think
that but that's what they do that's what
people donate for the the ones that are
actually persecuted and get beat up and
even killed AEM
is no one really helps them if anybody
helps them it's only to use them as a
pawn to raise more money for themselves
and help themselves
so that's in essence there is really no
enemy there's no it's a fake thing it's
a fake thing but what's even worse
Epstein says what's even worse than all
of this is tor says that this fighting
this running this running from an enemy
that doesn't
exist and again I'm not saying anti-em
doesn't exist it does exist and I've
experienced it myself but nonetheless
most of these organizations fighting it
they're not fighting anybody they're
just fighting the bank account that's a
reality but the big thing for us for the
rest of the people that are afraid of
the Nazis and the Muslims and the and
all of these people that want to kill us
we don't have to be afraid of anybody we
have to be afraid of hasem why he's the
one sending
them stop R running from
ghosts oh Rabbi can I wear should I wear
a keeper or should I wear a hat what's
wrong wearing a keeper you're a Jew wear
a keeper I don't know because I saw on
TV that in friends they beat up somebody
that wore a keeper okay so well did it
happen in your neighborhood
no so what does have to do with you I
don't know maybe to take precautions
wait you think that if you wear a
hat that's going to protect you you
actually think that if you don't wear a
keeper or you wear a hat that's going to
protect you don't you realize that the
person that got hurt he didn't get hurt
by the Arab but rather by a kadosh who
sent the Arab you didn't get that yet
you're afraid of a enemy that doesn't
exist it's not him it's
him it's not the Arabs the Christians
the it's not it's not them it's a
sending them to them to wake us up but
the curse I still didn't get to running
from an enemy that doesn't exist okay
scary not good we're crazy fine what's
the
curse
says since
whose
trait is
to save the
persecuted right being persecuted we
just talked about it for a half hour
hasem sees us persecuted by default we
gain favor in his eyes and he helps us
but the curse
that says that we're going to run from
an enemy that doesn't exist means there
is no salvation why there's no
enemy to save us from we are Our Own
Worst
Enemy your conquerors your destroyers
will be from within you since we're
running from an enemy that doesn't exist
there's nothing for hem to save us from
the curse is not that we're running
simply from an enemy that doesn't exist
that's our choosing because we're not
close to Hashem the curse is that
there's no salvation to be had because
there's no enemy for hem to free us from
we are the enemy to ourselves because
we're not following the Torah that's
scary that's having anxiety with no cure
that's having an illness that doesn't
exist but you feel all of the problems
you feel pain and there's no
diagnosis you feel Agony and there's
simply no medicine or doctor that could
even know what you're doing I know I've
been dealing with such a thing and it's
not an easy deal it's not an easy thing
AB it's not an easy thing and sometimes
that's the
price and we still have to have enough
faith and love and
allwe to know to say thank
you thank you for making me pay for this
here and not there
because here the price it may seem
expensive but it's
temporary it's temporary CU my life is
temporary there it's not always
temporary in fact some of the sins that
lead to such a punishment are permanent
punishment not temporary punishment so
because loves us and promised not to
destroy us that promises only here in
this world but those that arrive in the
upper bed de of heaven with sins that
have no Chua for them there's nothing
for them to do there's no way for them
to be persecuted anymore there's no way
for them to pay the bill in any other
way other than the Eternal
destruction that's what we all are
trying to
avoid the key is to understand that
everything that we have in this
world is the one doing it for our favor
for our good even if it's painful people
that
think that there's no punishment simply
a living a delusion look at the world
around you there's not a single person
out there that doesn't suffer everybody
suffers some more some less and the ones
that suffer less today most likely have
suffered a lot in the past or will
suffer a lot in the future why that's
life that's life sometimes it looks like
somebody's doing extremely well they
have a house they have a car they have a
business they have all these wonderful
things and it looks great and then you
see one day breaking news Bernie made
off just got caught wow the guy had
everything going for him and now his
entire life is a disaster he's going to
be the uh example of a thief for the
rest of History until someone worse than
him comes along and even when someone
worse name comes along he's still going
to be mentioned as the worst Thief for
the uh first uh 100 Years of the
century and if that's not bad enough
because he desecrated hashem's name so
much more disaster came to his life both
of his sons died during his life which
the gar says to see a single son die
during your life is the worst suffering
that a person can can
handle two of his sons died during his
life one actually committed suicide
is and his own death that happened
recently it's not even a kapar for all
the things that he did why because he
has so much blood on his hands it looked
like he was winning until brought the
Wrath same thing that happened with all
of the other evil people there were
pedophiles were in different types of
immorality
schemes all of those people people
eventually the wrath
of showed its face and brought their
Fame and Fortune to a complete Halt and
destruction and this is why you should
never be jealous of anyone that looks
like they're doing well unless they're
extremely
righteous to be jealous of someone
that's a scholar that's doing extremely
well in Torah that's a jealousy that's
allowed but someone that's doing well
financially someone that's doing well in
other aspects there's nothing for you to
be jealous about you have no idea what
kind of suffering they already had or
they will have depending on what they do
and what they've
done and the key is to remember that
each and every single one of us has a
personal salvation waiting for us
especially if we catch on quickly why we
have the suffering in the first
place if am would have simply
listened to
whatman said before the Holocaust in
this
cont the Holocaust would have never
happened this is why it baffles me
and how he and the rest of theik that
lived during that time and saw the
coming disaster how they can live with
it where on one end you see the
Holocaust
coming you're telling people it's
coming and nobody wants to listen to you
in fact they make you think you're crazy
they make fun of you they make comments
about you in the papers and today on the
internet ah he's maybe should join Kamas
or Bin Laden maybe different
uh worlds
this is what happened
to they wrote articles against him they
made fun of him publicly while he knows
that his brothers and sisters that are
not going to listen to him are
doomed how do you live like that imagine
the nightmare it's like a person knows
that their child is on a roof about to
jump and there's nothing they can
do kind of suffering that is
he wrote the whole
thing but he didn't write it for us for
them he wrote it for us just like he
said before they murdered him the
Nazis he said that let the fire that's
going to burn
us give Merit to save our
brotherr in Europe and America
says that this
persecution the worse it gets the closer
our Salvation comes because Hashem seeks
to persecute
it and as it is
said by the prophet
Isaiah chapter 66 verse number
n shall I
bring the woman to the birth stool
crisis and not cause it to give birth
says Hashem meaning what Hashem is going
to bring a woman to
the birth
panks all the suffering that a woman
gets right before she gives birth and
not let her deliver the baby meaning
when is is suffering so
much what do you think the Salvation is
not going to happen surely it's going to
happen hasm says that's the promise that
I
have that means that in the worst period
of the Exile the
galut will also come the time of the
rebirth and it's clear that at this
moment we are passing through the
crisis it's certain that the rebirth too
is very near amen amen he
says
here the rman
blesses his current generation
that let the worst that he's seeing at
that time which was open
persecution be the worst but
unfortunately it did get worse Millions
more were
killed while the
world stood
silent while the people that called them
themselves our allies
today not only stood silent but many of
them actually even helped the
Nazis
now continues and
says to those that persecute
us we would
say and he reads from the prophet
mikah several different verses
Rejoice not against me oh my enemy
though I have fallen I shall
rise though I sit in
darkness the Lord is a light onto me in
essence he's telling the enemies that
see us Fallen see us get in trouble see
us suffer don't Rejoice why I fell I'm
hurt but don't worry Hashem runs the
world and he's going to save me why he
promised why he's my
father yeah but he created you too so
what he chose
us racism call AEM racist if you want
another sin added to your uh
Bill call a racist he chose am why ask
him I don't know if you're allowed to
ask questions and G on but you can ask
him when you get get
there that's the
reality that's tah says you don't
believe in a
tah you simply have no right to exist
you don't believe in a document that the
creator that created you gave to the
world but unfortunately many people are
like that why it's not because they
don't believe in an actual Creator so
they don't want to they don't want to
believe because by believing a
creator that obligates
them obligates them to follow what this
Creator
said so if you're are my
enemy don't waste your time rejoicing
when I
fall because all that I Fallen I shall
rise though I sit in darkness the Lord
is a light unto me I will bear the
indignation of the Lord because I have
sinned against them this is only
happening because I made mistakes not
because I made
mistakes and till he plead my cause and
execute judgment for me he will bring me
forth to the light and I Shall Behold
his righteousness everything that he's
doing is
100% emit hem doesn't make
mistakes if I suffer it's because I made
a mistake he didn't make a
mistake no one in the world has ever
died or gotten hurt because has made a
mistake no such thing
anyone that died is because of their own
actions their own mistakes their own
deeds and sometimes even they chose it
for righteous reasons some of theim
chose to
die because hm gave them a choice famous
story
with Shalom one of the in the previous
generation got sick and went into a
coma suddenly although he was older but
still healthy
got sick and went to a
coma his wife was sitting next to him
and he suddenly wakes
up and he tells
her I went up to shim and they told me
that AEM is that there is a very
horrible decree about to be passed
against am is because of all the many
sins that we made as a
people and they said that hundreds of
thousands of people would
die or they could simply take
myish so I told them to take my n
instead and his wife says to them why
don't you ask
me why don't you ask me first who says
that I agree for you to take away your
life I need
you and he knew that his wife although
she loved him a lot she also loved am is
a lot
and all of this was coming from emotions
and he told her you really want so many
people to
die she was quiet and understood what
has to
happen closed his eyes and
died
why
says will
sometime pick a rose out of the garden
pick a rose out of the garden because
that is worth a lot
more there's no way to not pay the
bill as we've already learned time and
time again the bill has to be paid both
on an individual level or national level
but one of the things that do
for sometimes we lose
them but that loss although we mourn it
and we have to mourn it and thear says a
person that does not mourn when a sadik
dies could even get punished to lose his
own kids as a result of that because the
time that a
sadik is taken from us is a time for
morning for the entire nation because
there's less Merit to the people there's
less merits now in in the world but
nonetheless those tadim will sometimes
choose to have hem take them in order to
save countless other people the
invention of the New Testament was not
an
invention thinking that one guy died for
many is is not an invention that already
exists in our Torah they just innovated
it and turned it into
idolatry by saying that someone can die
for the future
people any sadik that dies is only
saving the people of today of the sins
up to today not the sins that you'll
make
tomorrow that Idol that Christianity has
that died 2,000 years ago
even if they wanted to say that no
someone can die for your sins yeah okay
you won could say that fine no problem
you can find a source for it of the past
sins of that generation what does that
have to do with you today when you're
raping young
kids when you're stealing from people
when you have a mouth like a uh sewer
when you have eyes that don't stop
looking at things that are immoral what
does that have to do with you the what
the idolatry part is one of the many
parts the fact that they've turned this
to what peace of God that's an Essence
also but even the ones that believe he's
the Messiah it's also
idolatry it's also idolatry number one
because their definition of Messiah is
not the same thing as ours they still
believe the Messiah is a part of
God and second of all because they think
that this Messiah can simply absolve
them of all crimes that they've made
it's complete nonsense it's against the
torat it's against the foundation
but
nonetheless some of
these are taking out of the world in
order to help get more time more time to
do
Chua so it's never a mistake there is no
mistakes done by Heaven Shem doesn't
make mistakes he's perfect whether it's
the suffering that happens to me
personally that caused me years and
years of Agony and pain or it's yours
or it's ours there's no
mistakes no mistakes AEM is
perfect and not only
perfect what he's doing is
righteous it's not only perfect because
there's a judgment and there's a bill
that has to be paid but it actually
makes him righteous for doing it that's
the sedic it's not just right because
there's a bill and then just like
counting every one has to have another
one everything has to equal out on the
end no that's not the reason reason is
that's what makes him righteous that
emit at all times under all cost that's
what makes him
righteous then my enemy shall see
it and shame shall come
over who said unto me where is the Lord
thy
God my eyes shall gaze upon her
now shall she be trotten down as the
mirror of the streets says that the
Nazis are going to look at us and say
where's your
God how come he's letting so many of you
die how come he's letting so many of you
get
persecuted and that'll be moments before
the Salvation comes and destroys
them the nation shall see and be put to
shame for all of their might they shall
lay their hand upon their mouth their
ears shall be deaf they shall lick the
dust like a serpent crawling things of
the earth they shall come trembling out
of their CL close
places they shall come with fear onto
the Lord
hasem they shall be afraid because of
these
this is the last line of the
where gave the prophet insights for us
to read different prophecies for us to
read that although there are going to be
times that is will suffer and the enemy
is going to look like they're enjoying
it and they're having fun that in itself
is going to be moments before moments
before the Salvation eventually comes
and the worst it gets the closer we are
to the
Salvation both on a national level as
well as on
a personal level
but again we need to do Chua for that to
happen we need to change circumstances
for that to happen because if we don't
do chat that means the payment continues
to
grow the bill continues to grow the
problems continue to
grow that's one of the scariest parts of
the whole thing it's not that okay few
people suffer therefore everybody else
is saved it doesn't work that way
there's still a bill and that bill that
meter keeps
running
the in volume
one section
142 brings a source of the page 81a and
also it's quoted in the
uh the lectures of
the
1423 where the
asks how
come the scholars of that day were not
all were not bringing children that were
also
Scholars naturally we think if the
father is a
scholar the kid would be a scholar how
come it wasn't
happening andar says because they were
not blessing the
tah why it's so hard to make a blessing
before you learn
tah every day you wake up in the morning
you make a blessing for the
T you wake up you
say thank you for having the soul
back if you have to use the bathroom you
go use the bathroom if not you wash your
hands do not he let you
DME if you haven't done it die make sure
don't touch any body parts because the
says you have a still the two the T hour
the evil spirit on your fingers and it's
better that you chop off your hands and
your fingers than to touch a orice in
your body before washing your hands in
the
morning but nonetheless you
do then you do for being able to relieve
yourself in the morning and then you do
morning blessings and part of the
morning blessings is to
do do the blessings of the Torah so
you're telling me the scholars of 2,000
years ago
that were able to resurrect the
dead didn't make blessings of the Torah
that a three-year-old knows how to do
that I know how to do that you know how
to do doesn't make any
sense comes
the with one of the scariest things
because it applies to this generation
exactly says what what does this mean
that the scholars did
not breed
Scholars comments on it and
says this is talking
about how despite having
scholars in the world we still
lost our right to the land we lost the
bet mikash
we lost our ability to live in live in
is in peace even today it's under attack
by the Arabs or the zionists or the
Christians there's no real freedom in
Israel great extraordinary place but
it's not a religious country still
issues
there and that's only now the time of
theam didn't
exist how come we lost this he says
despite having scholars in the
world says the reason
why says we didn't make blessing on the
what does that
mean says
says you don't make a blessing on
learning you don't make a blessing on
learning there is a prayer you can say
if you want before you learn but it's
not a blessing
the blessing is that you make a blessing
on the entire which includes or anything
else you're going to study but mainly
the blessing is for you being able to
learn T from the because that's the
foundation that's the blessing you make
a blessing for that but if you're just
going to learn the whole day you don't
make a blessing for that why because
that's
not the foundation as far as that's not
the main source written toah is the main
source the oral tah is the commentary
that explains the main source so says we
don't make it a blessing on the
commentary not that it's not important
it's just that you make it there's a
priority list there's a priority list
and you make the blessing on the top on
the on the Torah itself the WR
tah so from here we learn that there is
priorities
the problem
ISS is that in the
same that we just talked
about there is a couple of times that it
mentions a
story of
[Applause]
hes who one time there was a person that
wanted to convert to Judaism
and he went he went to
[Applause]
shamay and told him in a obnoxious way I
want to learn the whole T in one leg
Shai told him go fly a kite I don't have
patience for people like you it's like
people that constantly send me messages
how long is it going to take to convert
I don't know it depends on you can I
convert in two months no oh how come why
you we Prejudice I don't even know you
why I come I said probably going to take
you longer most people takes much longer
what 6 months uh most likely more how
long year two years five years depends
oh why because you can make money no I
actually don't charge for it and they
want to rule everything they want to
listen Rabbi I'm ready I'm ready take me
to the bed de I'll decide when you're
ready oh how come you have to decide how
come I can't decide for
myself people want to they don't know
anything but they want to decide that's
the guy that came to the the guy that
came to
sh said go fly kite I got to go learn T
go help people that actually want to
help themselves this same guy went
to went
he and
he he told he the same thing learn the
entire t on one leg so he says to
him love your brother as much as you
love
yourself that's a big teachings in the
Torah
so people say see that's a big teaching
in the Torah today that's what you have
to work on love
everybody
breast the satare secular the na Zionist
the enemies the Christians the that's
what people think it
is says this that's the
mistake that's the mistake they made
they don't understand what he did over
there all he did is that he saw that
somebody wants to convert and he didn't
want him to lose hope so he said oh you
want to learn okay listen let me teach
you something simple love everybody like
you love yourself every person can do
such a thing if they really think about
it every person that could do it just to
encourage him to keep going he didn't
really mean it's the entire tor
but you have
turned he
LS good manners good nature and simply
his Mercy on this poor guy into the
entire Torah and now told us and taught
generation after generation to Simply
love everybody even though it's against
the
Torah and although you don't make a
blessing on
thear you've turned the teachings in the
gar
into the entire
Tor and
that says is only because the
scholars the scholars are using the
Torah to Simply use it to satisfy their
world and satisfy their life if they can
tell people listen you have to do CH we
all have to keep Shabbat and that's
going to help them financially that's
what they're going to say but if telling
everybody listen we love everybody the
LGBT enemies of Hashem the Nazis the
Christians the the pedophiles the
rapists we love
everybody that is not
H that's not H was
aad says you've turned a teaching of
simple manners
into a desecration of theah why because
it suits your interest you're using it
to run the world you're using it to
Simply satisfy your desires in the world
that's why we
lost says that's why we lost the land
because a who says you're using my Torah
in order to to build your life to build
your world into your
satisfaction I will now take the land
from you take that comfort from you why
because all you were supposed to teach
in my Torah that the reason why we say
everything we do everything is because
of why I said it in the written toah
what did I say I said because I said so
that's the will of hem that's the reason
of why we do all of the mitv the will of
hem not to love everybody and not to
hate
everybody it's we do the will of hem
when you start doing things to satisfy
your will to build your house to build
your reputation and now you're using my
Torah to do so you are like a scholar
who doesn't make a blessing on the Torah
that is one of the things that he said
many years ago because it was happening
then and has been happening for years
but it's much clearer to
us that it's happening today why because
today very few people want to teach the
uncomfortable truth of the
Torah because you'll see that a lot of
the different AR articles that are
written today and lectures that are
given today and books that are written
today nothing similar to the books were
written yesterday nothing similar to the
to the to the kest we're reading that
was written 80 years ago
nothing tell no we're teaching you amuna
we're teaching you m and they gave you a
little smiley face on the bottom be
happy because hasem loves you that's
nice it's not real M though you know
real mus
is comes the
sh who brings
the
says you
want
is why says
anyone anyone that still has an inkling
of a Jewish in them that reads that seph
will do
CH why it's real mus not just the scary
gory details of Gom and kailla but just
simply every single
page but the modern world today so
scared of it especially in
English 500 years and it hasn't been
trans
translated countless
books have been translated that don't
even deserve to be read
period but one of the foundations that
the
STI the the bov
the all of the greatest in history
called as the one of the greatest
teachings that ever existed still most
people don't even know what it says
aside from what's said in shim here and
there
why because most of the people don't
speak uh Hebrew so well that they would
even if they read it they would
understand what it says but you can
break it down at a simple way people
don't want to do it why it has too much
truth in it but you think that started
today it started even
during's
lifeas didn't live to publish
that but rather his Tad wife after he
died saw all of these different writings
that he
had and she put it together and she
brought it to the big rabbis of the
community and they said she said I want
to publish this for my
husband I want you to to see it go go
over it check
it and the rabbis looked at it said ah
it's too much there's no way that we had
such
aad wasn't known during his life there's
no way that we had such a great sadik
that lived and did all of these
things and we didn't even know he was
down the street from us there's no way
ah he's probably just making the stuff
up he didn't live it and you don't want
to
publicize the book of a uh
hypocrite and they put it
aside
says the moment those rabbis were good
people but they simply couldn't
comprehend how they could have such a
the biggest Rabbi in the world live next
door to them for so many years and they
don't realize it one of the 36 sadik
lives next door to them for years and
they don't know he
exists said it's not possible so he said
we're not going to prophesize something
of someone that's a hypocrite he's
saying this we don't even know he exist
come on they put it
aside at that moment those very same
rabbis say this
happened when they put it
aside a huge hand of Fire
came down from shamayim and smashed on
the table on the
book and said he
lived and did everything that he wrote
and such will be meaning publish
it from the fear of what they witnessed
with their own eyes they wrote
themselves we almost all died just from
the fear of seeing this
thing and we iMed imediately made it
number one priority to publish this as
soon as
possible that's
why says he
read 400 times and each time made a
celebration but yet today when you
mention chapters of it people say no
it's not for this
generation not for this
generation what is for this
generation the immorality that's on TV
or sometimes even in the betet what is
for this
generation they never changed they
always had the same awesome
tah whether it's in a generation
ofu shim student who we celebrate Asa
this week
at or it's Rashi R the the
ran
or
bed all these SED King there's no end no
nation in the world has such great Sages
and all of them had the same Torah
same and countless of them that lived at
the time and their
after
ofas
said this was the foundation of their M
they read it every
day today your average Raba you mention
the name to him say no it's not for this
generation and it's not just they'll say
it about other I'm just mentioning it
because it's relevant to what was
saying it's not for this generation it's
not for this
generation 80 years ago somebody came a
rabbi came to GI Shalom was one of theor
in
America and told him
Rabbi how come you speak so
strong how come you speak so strong
maybe it's not for this generation
in a letter that GI wrote to him that I
have in my hand almost 80 years
ago it's an extensive letter that maybe
we'll do a sh about it one
day but GI writes him
back with
fire with fire as is
ink tell him
not not to speak the words of
Torah
why because you and many
others have lowered the Torah to speak
like the people instead of having the
people learn how to speak like the Torah
you have lowered
yourselves to speak like the people
because you want to fit the
generation and then he brings a verse
from Isaiah chapter 1
when Isaiah says to the people and
rebuke the fire will burn
you he
says was Isaiah speaking to his
generation's level then when he told
them if you don't stop sinning hashem's
going to burn all of you is that
appropriate for that generation did he
accustom himself to that generation like
you want me to accustom
myself like many people say that we need
to lower the tone and
stop yelling and stop rebuking and stop
doing everything that the that we would
only wish we could
emulate did for all of the
generations what has done in this cont
time and time
again is rebuke is to no end week after
week he tells us of all of the different
things we need to change in so many
words to stop whether we are leaders or
followers because all of the mistakes
that we're making are leading us to
destroy
ourselves does that mean that Hashem is
going to
eventually destroy the people no he made
a promise and he'll keep
it will always
be but why why do we need him to punish
us in order to realize that we are am
why do we need him to punish us in order
for us to realize that he is
God our sages
are have always said the same exact Tor
with the same tone whether they were
speaking M or they were speaking
Al whether they were talking to a large
crowd or they were writing a
book The em has never
changed and the bigger the sages the
more Z je they were for the honor
of and those that se their own honor
those that seek to use their
scholarship in order to manipulate the
world in order to build their own houses
and their own line their own
Pockets the says the same thing that
wasman
follows they are the ones that brought
us to
destruction the destruction back then
and destruction
today it's our job to not
only learn the emit learn the truth but
know that we are responsible for each
other we're responsible to share the
truth we're responsible to support the
truth we're responsible to live the
truth
because says to us in many
places just like
that he observed everything under the
sun he observed beneath the sun in the
place of Justice there is
wickedness in the place of righteousness
there's
wickedness there's wickedness everywhere
even when there's
righteousness and God will judge the
righteous and the wicked for there is
time for everything
and for every deed
theirs
in chapter 3 verse number
16 tells us that everyone will be judged
one day you and I will be judged our
enemies will be judged our friends will
be judged how will be
judged is simply based on our actions if
we chose right rightousness according
to's definition we are the Righteous
that will be judged as the
righteous if we choose to do things that
are righteous only according to us but
not according to Hashem because he
didn't say these things in his toah and
we're just making things
up then we'll be judged as the
wicked and whether we live among the
righteous and everyone of uses is
righteous because we are or we live
among the righteous and we're Wicked but
nobody
knows says there's wickedness everywhere
there's wickedness in the from Community
there's wickedness in the secular courts
too there's wickedness everywhere and
everyone in the end will be judged
accordingly
because he doesn't miss
anything and don't think for a moment
that he has to do it tomorrow or he has
to do it in 20 years from
now's judgment he has time for
everything he has time for everything
why he's not bound to time he's not
bound to
time it's time that we take a little bit
further steps to get closer to in our
servitude in our learning in our
teaching in our spreading of tah to make
it once and for all priority number one
not because it's going to make our lives
better in this
world not because we want Hashem to give
us more money not because we want Hashem
to give us a shid not because we want
Hashem to give us a better reputation
not because we want Hashem to give us
more honor or popularity not because we
want hem to make sure that our kids will
do well in life no not because of any of
those reasons but rather and only
because it is the will of hem for us to
fulfill and spread is tah and its
Holiness in every corner in the world
and that's enough of a reason if we live
the tah shared the Torah and spread it
everywhere just
because AEM wants us to do it it's his
will that's more than enough of a reason
and one that does the will of hem as if
it's his own will the M says hem will
then make his will as if it's your will
and your will as if it's his
will this series will give us the
encouragement to be zealous in the right
way to be an advocate for hem in the
best way and to share his to with no
embarrassment or shame but rather with
pride like no other and a priority
beyond anything else that we're chasing
because just says that if we want
salvation we have to chase the Torah
like we Chase treasure chasing the Torah
that you already have in your hand
doesn't make sense chasing the Torah
that other people don't have bringing it
to them that's what we're looking for we
all succeed in it we continue to learn
we continue to do and bring
A's name Higher and Higher and magnify
his name and his Torah and his sages and
make sure that we do everything possible
to do his will simply because it is his
Willen amen
