The Talmud Reveals 2 Shabbats To Bring Redemption & More

Good morning. Welcome. Welcome to all those who braved the storm to you. And all those who stayed after sh cuz he could have just ran back home and had some hot uh hot drink. Hashem will speak about shabis. We'll have some exciting riddles. I want to dedicate this year to men and his family. announcement next month, not now, still have a few more weeks. I'm s I'm going to be uh in the states speaking in different communities. There's still one shabas available. If you know of any community that's interested or an event, one shop is available as a also a few weekdays are still available. So if anyone's interested, let me know. Let's start with the real Ysef has some dreams and he tells them to his brothers they don't seem to be so happy. The says they hated him. Later on they were jealous. So they hated him and they were jealous. response when he hears the uh the dreams he anticipated he's waiting when will this be fulfilled good so the reaction of the brothers hatred jealousy father waiting to see when it's happening and who was happy to hear ya's dreams it doesn't seem that anybody's anyone is happy here right Jacob is waiting let's see what happens doesn't indicate anything of happiness who was happy to hear Yakov's dreams. What's that? Yseph's dreams. I'm sorry. Who was happy to hear Ysef's dreams when he shared it? >> Ruven was happy. >> Why is he happy? >> Because he didn't dream that he's going to be in the two points. >> The medish says Ruven says, "Wait a second. He is COUNTING ME AS PART OF THE I was sure I was going to be rejected after what happened with Bilah. I'm not I'm not a part of the 12 tribes. But in his dreams, he is counting me as one of the members of the I'm part OF THE TRIBES and I'm not going to save him. And that's why he decided, you know what? I'm going to save him. I'm going to save him. >> Heard that he is counted. when he heard that the 11 uh that means I am counted with everybody else if everybody else I'm counted I am part of the tribes even if it's not true he loves me so much I'm going to save him that's why he saved him after was kind of happy when he heard it >> the the star or the mean the the people >> in his dreams he's talking about me I'm part of the members I'm part of the star. Maybe the star was related to someone else. Maybe he also >> soon we'll see who the star is. Soon we'll see. But here he understands that he's counting him as part of theatim. And he says even if it's not true, doesn't make a difference. Ysef loves me so much cuz he explains it to himself to mean that it's the 12 tribes, the 11 tribes other than him. I'm part of the I'm going to save him. You want to say something? >> Maybe it's cuz he was he was responsible. Maybe that's why he did. >> He was sure he's rejected from all theatim. He's not part of the family anymore. So Ysef shouldn't have dreams about him. He's outcast. Since you did so good in the previous riddle, be careful you don't lose your points now. Another riddle or nothing. >> Who's the of who taught him everything? >> Yeah. Can it be that Ysef also learned something from Asaf is the rebe of Ysef? >> He sat with him and he gave him a class. >> You have a proof before I give you the points. >> No, because >> you have a proof before I give you the points. I'm going to give you the points. But I prefer I prefer giving giving you a proof because I'll be able to give you more points. >> That's why he was afraid of as says when he sold the I'm going to die. Who cares? Who cares what goes on in Asab's mind? Why is the sharing this with us? The should have really said and he sold his first born rights to who cares what he was thinking. Oh, I'm going to die. says this comes to tell us that Asav where does he come from? He came from the field. He endangered his life and he's about to die. Why? For the sake of his father. And from here declared if Asv is willing to risk his life for what? To get a good stake for his father, how much more so I should risk my life. When Yakovu says to me, go to a very dangerous place. go see how your brothers are doing. He knew that they hate him and they almost killed him. In fact, that's what happened. He almost lost his life. So where does he learn? And in fact discuss was Ysef allowed to go there. Who says allowed to go there? Well, you have to listen to your father when he says to you viol. It's against the not so pleasure that he was allowed to. So where did he learn that he was allowed to? from Asaf. He says, "If Asaf risks his life to get a good steak, how much more so I should risk my life when my father commands me to go see how my brothers, his sons are doing and how my and how his sheep are doing." That's his animals. As goes to those type of animals and I'll go to these type of animals, my father's animals. And from here, he learned. So why is all this written in to teach us saysim how careful a person should be to fulfill his father's command could also be his mother his parents' command and that's why all this is written everybody knows this also will keep two shabases comes the brings a proof from but we have a rule. There's nothing that's not hinted to in the Torah. Where do you see this idea that you need two shabases and you will be redeemed? And soon we'll see the connection to shah because perhaps there is a connection to otherwise I mean it's nice to speak about shabas a few hours before shabas but where do we see in the if you keep two shabases you will be redeemed perhaps in a few places in talking about the says why do you have to repeat yourself can't you say it once put those loaves of bread maybe because everything has to do with shabases too and then what's going to be to be with maybe that's the or a different why are you saying you already said it is a shab and you repeat yourself and again you say is a shabas which means there's Two types of shabases. Two types of shabases comes explained safeguard from desecrating it. Don't violate the shabas is the positive. Sanctify it with sanctify with the kadusha that you infuse into the shabas. When the gim says you have to keep two shabases, not two shabases, one on shabas, wait a week and keep another one. It's the two types of shabases that are in one which means safeguard from desecrating it. Make sure that you don't violate the shabas and infuse it with kadusha, infuse it with infuse it with mitzvah and the explained differently but similarly he says to do two shabases means the goof and the ne you have to give take pleasure and shabas have good foods that's for the goof what about the said learn a little yeah I know sleeping is also very very pleasurable maybe for the nephesh I'm not so sure >> what's that >> shamu right I Maybe that is another what's the connection to speaking one about and the fear of mdash normally this is not done one theme for a here I'm putting two keep my shabases shabases why don't you say if you want to be consistent with the style two cuz maybe this is the keep two when you sayim two shabas says that mean two more than one shabas in plural that means two you know what's going to happen right right after don't read it rather you will be able to see mdash who says this the ends how she says Shalom. I promise you. I promise you. Just keep the shabas. What's the connection between the two parts of the one you're putting two? Yeah. Cuz shabas is like shabas is a spiritual mikdash within the days of physical the activity that we're always engaging. Suddenly we move into a spiritual existence that is shabas. You're willing to keep a spiritual existence within that physical world that you're living. I'll move you into a spiritual existence. And that is the when another idea talking about normally you pick one every single day Friday take two preparing for shabas over there says shabul everything that you have you see with shabas is double the cob of shabas is two sheep two loaves of bread, two candles and everything about Shabas is two interpretation there brings a medish from the everything any business that you have to do with Shabas is double and he gives all kinds of examples the we saw you have to take two portions of the is double of Shabasim If one desecrates the punishment is double. That's why you say two twice is double as the warnings are double the shabas is double mismo and the same thing you're doubling up everything about is double the show brings in says this is the reason we light two candles because everything about is double the He adds there that anyone who lights more than two candles actually takes away from this idea of having the for and the of the world is not like that. The meaning of the world is interesting because the meaning of the world is the light according corresponding to the amount of kids that you have at home and there is no source to that brings all kinds of different some light seven light 10 some light two will light 36 and 72 or the more the merrier to we don't find a real early source saying that you light corresponding to every kid that you have you had another light but that's what the meaning of the world is with that we can understand the one of We sing tomorrow, right? So then we sing to what >> what double reward. Everything about is double. You also get double reward based on that. That's what the says bring because everything about Shabas is actually double. And you see from here the great >> [clears throat] >> Why and it's throughout conceptual coned by an action that repeats itself twice or three times twice three times and that's how we pass it is when you see something repeating itself three times that's a right normally we like says I'm not going to pass like I will because I want to redeem you so much that I'm willing to see only two shabases and I say you're that you show me shabas and I'll redeem you and more than that it's a matter of if you keep us in it's a spiritual one and a physical one for us and when it comes to manners of we don't like manners of sak we pass the ised by twice for example is katlanis a woman that get that got married twice and both lost both her husbands she is called lethal woman. She's not allowed to be married. Why? Twice is enough. First baby was born in the family. We circumcised him. Unfortunately, he died. The second baby is born. Same story. Two babies already born. We don't circumcise the third one. Why? Saka says staying in spiritual and a physical one. All I want to redeem you. What's connected that keeping shabas as opposed to all of the mitas will bring and think [clears throat] shabas as we said before is a spiritual existence within days of we're occupied with so many other things physical things so when one moves into that physical territory of aesh and says I'm with you I forget about everything else so says oh yeah so I'm going to bring you that which you want which is the spiritual existence that We're going to have with the way his daughter all these four told me many times to tell people to accept them themselves as a for many good things to accept chabas 10 minutes early and the many people do that but the trick is not just to accept chabas 10 minutes early to during those 10 minutes why what's so special about those 10 minutes which are very propitious for being answered where's it a spiritual request so when you move into spirituality into a spiritual existence of shabas you're saying to I just want to be with you extra time gives you extra is willing to listen and grant you whatever you want during those time because it's something that you have to do but you want to move into a spiritual existence will reward you and grant you your spiritual requests. That's why it's a very opportune time to da at that time. >> When you say 10 minutes early, do you mean 10 minutes before? >> 10 minutes before the calendar, whatever the calendar that anyways you accept is 10 minutes, 12 minutes, 8 minutes, 20 minutes earlier than that. We like to say 10 minutes because sometimes if you take too much upon yourself, it's going to boomerang. Especially in the winter is very short. But whenever you do it, so it doesn't have to be 10 because 10 is no school in the number 10. But when you do it earlier than what you're requested to do, I'll do extra for you as well. >> And use those 20 minutes to accept early change is established for as well. Would you agree with no you're right most except invas you can't just decide to change it because you want to do this you can just add another five minutes to the 40 minutes that you already do if you didn't have a custom and you were in a community in community that you don't have this custom so then you're free to do as you wish >> 45 is over the top >> you want to say over the top for your request [laughter] >> but After saying all this if in fact Shab has such a coak to redeem so why do you need two and if shab doesn't have to redeem so even two is not enough doesn't work why dk what is special about magical about two shabases when somebody keeps a shab it doesn't necessarily show us that he's a shabas it shows us that yesterday he probably heard a shir and he was very very excited he was inspired Maybe he is afraid of some kind of a punishment that's going to come next week. Maybe he wants us to be successful in some kind need some kind of issue. I'm going to keep the shabas. You're not showing us that you're show you're showing us that you have an awakening for whatever reason for the next 25 hours. But when you do that again the following shabas you're in. You're show that shows consistency. Shabas has the to redeem. It's just a technical thing that we need to see that you really are shabas and then that shabas which we really only need one but in order to establish that you are we need two shabases but really shabas in itself has the to after all this [clears throat] >> is that all we'll keep that's the language some people have the weight corresponding to so many people so maybe we don't need the entire but that's the language of >> 600,000 had corresponding to 600,000 after saying all this seemingly we have a big problem as well totally different we before read the and it's very clear and says no keep one shabas all will be redeemed. So do you need two or you need one? So now everything we said until now doesn't work cuz you don't need two. I mean I think very good votes but it doesn't it's not true. You only need one. >> Yeah. You say the same thing. Keep it as you're supposed to different words for the same idea. Who are you asking like? Who? So the bubbly saw of the shi and decided not like it and therefore we pass in light the bubbly. SO HOW COME AND DAVID PASSED LIKE THE shi just one shabus and we'll only who gave him permission to pass in like anybody sings it. Do you ever hear anyone singing just two shabases? No. We post why some explain that yani is talking about the the result. The bi is talking about the way to get there. Meaning really you need more chabas. The puk says shabas is described after six days OF WORK. WORK and then rest. When you decide finally YOU KNOW WHAT I'M KEEPING THIS SHABAS AND YOU'RE 42 years old. You know what you're starting? Show me that you're tired. You've been WORKING FOR 42 YEARS STRAIGHT. NOW I WANT TO REST. YOU KNOW HOW TO SHOW ME SHABAS. You're a person who's tired. The mit of Shabas is that you work 6 days, not 5,000. So keep Shabas. Now work six days and the next Shabas is that Shabas that will redeem you because that's the SHABAS THAT HE TALKED ABOUT. THE FIRST DOESN'T COUNT NECESSARILY. I don't know why you rested. It doesn't show YOU SHABAS. HE CHOSE YOU TIRED. The is saying the same thing. The is telling you the the way to get there to get to one shabas that the is describing is to keep shabas is because now you really are and if we said we had what we said before that now your consistency now when you really know that you are shab you're just not because you're resting it's the mit of after 6 days of work. So therefore these two statements are not contradiction. No they don't contradict each other they complete each other. Indiva says the two shabas is required are not two shabas on the calendar. It's one shabas but you can't just be thinking about yourself. You have to be thinking about others and make sure that everybody in the world keeps a shabas not just your shabas of people around. We only need one shabas, your own private shabas and make others keep the shabas as well. Go for the what is it called the in South Africa Rabbi Goldstein I think that's >> the Shabas project inspire be involved in bring others back to see the light of shabas that is called two shabases yours and the other people who's keeping shabas now the same shabas like you but that's the second shabas I think to bring from an explanation of the says Don't speak when you're eating. Why? Maybe the food is going to go down the wrong the windpipe instead of going through the esophagus. Dangerous grammatically doesn't work. Don't speak. That's it. Should really say don't speak. Now what's don't cause others to speak. What are you talking about? So he says many times you see you do speak in the middle of the meal it doesn't bother you because when you speak you're careful you swallow and then you decide to speak but when you speak with others and you say something which is startling to them or so upsetting or whatever it is they're going to have to react and they can't control themselves and therefore this instruction is not talking to you. DON'T SPEAK DON'T CAUSE OTHERS TO SPEAK in the middle of their me in the middle of their meal which means just like says and what it really should have said what's cause others to be involved in a shabas as well. So I think according to works very very well that is not only your shabas it's others as well could be that from the language of mean not only your but cause others to be shab as well over there in the original statement recorded from the he has a an idea he brings some there's a that say every single day push us upon him says you're so merciful what you did to us. THE ONLY THING YOU REQUEST IS KEEP TWO NOT A BIG DEAL. YOU COULD HAVE ASKED MUCH more in order to redeem us but that's the only thing you asked. And since it's so easy and it's such a and we don't do it therefore we are so embarrassed and the writes spent hundreds and hundreds of years CAN'T WE GET IT RIGHT IS WHAT ARE THEY ASKING US and therefore the word shabas turned around and became BES because gave us and is willing to redeem us for two and we DON'T DO IT BRUSHES UPON him because shabas has turned around and became bushes because we didn't do it maybe in a different way but again the idea of two shabas is required in says is called shabas he's called shabas when they're telling us to keep two shabases it's not two different days of the week two different days on the on the calendar keep the shabas the day of the week called shabas and keep the honor of the who is also called the shabas. And this should not be a wonderment because we see that equated his honor to that of the in fact the has a language amazing writes I'm reading to you should know it can't be that person who's not going to sin everybody sins but you should know said there's There's nothing worse like someone who offends the honor of so is really interested that we should honor the and what do the do they wreck different fences to safeguard the shabas it makes sense that you should keep the honor of the two shabases what shabases the real shabas and the who are themselves called shabas and they protect that shabas and it's not so surprising actually what writes Nothing worse than than offending the honor of because the reverse is also true in the we learn from all the positive bases in the from all the greatest one is the that's the greatest essence. So it's a both sides of the coin. Maybe that's why the ple we read before says two shabases. Keep the one that comes after the weekdays as we know it coming in a few hours and keep the shabas which is the and fear him and honor him because we have to make sure to protect that shabas as well. By the way, why is the zoya calling a shabas? The is called a shabas. Why? I think when the zoya wrote it, it was very hard to understand. Today, very easy. You call someone up today. Tell me, do you know the source for this? What does it say in this? He starts quoting you. Yeah. You know why? He's working on a computer as he talks to you. But on Shabas, you reveal who is the real because he can't open up the computer. So now you know who's A REAL IS CALLED SHAB. Maybe in a different way. What are these two? One has to do many preparations before Shabas. You have to get up early on Shabas on Friday. You have to go and buy things for the Shabases. The expenses themselves that you spend for Shabas says remember Shabas like on Sunday you see a nice piece of steak, a nice piece of meat that you're going to want to use for Shabas, buy it. Think about Shabas the whole week. You have to do some laundry for Shabas. You have to bathe yourself. You have to go to the mikvah. Prepare yourself the shabas needs whatever you need based. We learned that it's the right thing to do for women to bake. I'm not talking right now. If she has to, if she can go to the bakery because it's a better and you like it better, you don't have to supper suffer on shabas. But there's an Indian of preparations of shabis which is across the board also preventing certain things. Don't do certain things for the honor of Shabas Friday afternoon. Don't have a big meal because we want you to be hungry for the sake of Shabas. Maybe that's what it means. So we'll keep two Shabases. What? Two Shabases. One Shabas that we're familiar with and the other Shabas is the Shabas of the whole week. You'll be the Shabas because you're preparing for the Shabas. You're honoring the Shabas the entire week mainly comes out of your mit is that of one big long Shabas. If that's the case will be redeemed because we said shabas is a whole spiritual existence and wants to redeem us and bring us into a spiritual existence. Many of you keeping the shabas all week even while you engage in other activities you're thinking about the shabas you're preparing for the shabas that's as if two shabases one preparation and one the actual shabas and it's like and that's the the reason maybe use the language it's like the peel of the fruit that protects the from the outside there's keeping the shabas from the inside that's when you're inside chabas and there's keeping the chabas from the outside all the preparations required and that's what mishamin like the um the peel that's mir which is inside what that is the fruit with that we can understand another how long is a week the week that I'm familiar with is six days >> is that what it is because we keep how long is a day in a kesh they say it's a thousand years and stuff >> are you a kesh b >> huh >> are you a kesh bow He says day and night that's 12 hours and 12 hours 24 hours and then it turns into Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday 6 days like that. has different his day is a thousand years with that we can understand another says strange language never from what is removed from even in a weekday shabas there is no shabas on a week days but according to what we're saying maybe that's interpretation there is a shabas on the week is if you're constantly thinking about Shabas the whole week when you say in the morning. Why you saying no no no it's Sunday of Shabas you're always involved says when you remember the shabas throughout the week you're involved in shabas of a week days when you do that in fact is never removed from after ALL THIS WHAT'S THE CONNECTION TO >> WHAT'S the And that you stop everything and you're with 24 hours is with you. But on weeks as if you're forgetting about you're involved in your business even then the never is removed from when it's a weekday of Shabas. It's a shab of when you infuse shabas the shabas into your weekdays thinking about it preparing for it is treating you like as if you are in a shabas and that maybe is the two shabasim that are required in order to be redeemed. connection to I thought this week we quoted before after he heard the dreams of what's he was anticipating when will this finally happen that's saying in other words throughout the whole week they anticipate they wait WHEN WILL SHABAS ALREADY COME WHEN YOU DO THAT your whole week is one big shabas your whole big week is one shab redeeming you because shabas has the power to redeem when it's done correctly. None correctly means not only when you jump into Shabas, when you prepare for Shabas, your whole week is a Shabas and then you can jump into Shabas and is always with you and meets Hashem. For that merit, we will have the now we go back to jail. Uh-oh. Ysef is in jail. And in the morning, Ysef sees the butler and the baker and they look like a tish. Sad face of a tish. What's wrong with you? And he looks at the calendar. It's not tish today. And he says to the butler, "What's wrong?" And the butler says, "Don't ask. It's such a bad dream yesterday, a weird dream, and I don't know what to do with it. And what did you dream about?" So he said, "I dreamt that I'm taking a bunch of grapes and I squeeze them and I make wine and I give the wine to Pa." I have no idea what this means. SO HE SAYS, "UH, OH YEAH, THAT MEANS in 3 days is going to restore you to your original position." Okay, I'll take your baker over. And he runs over and says, "Excuse me, how much do you charge for your dream interpreting services?" No charge. Really? Okay. Let me tell you. I also had a crazy dream last night. I don't know what it means. What do you dream? I saw three baskets of food on my head and a bird comes and eats from it. What does that mean? Oh, you're going to be decapitated very soon. How does know this means? And this means you're going back to your original position. How does know this? says the medish. When the butler started saying his dream, he was very very active. I took the grapes. I squeezed him. I made him into wine. I gave it to po active. Life is about being active. You have to do. You have to grow. You have to. You have to climb. That's why you're here. What does the butler say? I saw there's some baskets on my head. I saw there's a lot of food in them. I didn't put the food in them. I SAW THE BIRD COMES AND EATS FROM IT. What do you do? Nothing. He's passive. Life is not about passive. The essence of life is to grow. The essence of life is to do something. Just don't be a spectator of your life. Your life deserves participation not spectatorship. The medish >> the medish with a little further understanding and explanation of the medish says he saw being active explains why is that so important because if you're just a spectator of life that means you're not in you're not in the game you're out of the game so that means if you see the baskets on your head and you didn't place them there somebody else placed them there that means you're not active anymore and being working for power if you see someone eating from your head that means there is no all you have is a head that they will decapitate your head and that's why Ysef explained to the baker this way because life demands participation you have to be active not just stand there by stand by very interesting very watching your own life pass by disc where he says no >> about rapes Simto for what? That doesn't mean that other food is sim for the butler. But who says the baker is going to be decapitated? >> I don't remember that. >> So now we have one prison riddle. There's a person sitting in prison any handcuffs. What can he do on chabas that no one else around him can? Just because you put him in handcuffs, he can do something that no one else can. Can it be >> carried? He can drain. >> He can also carry someone else. Regarding Shabis, he can do something. Everybody's sitting in the room together. There's a person who has handcuffs on and because of that, he can do something that you can't do. >> Let himself be carried. >> No, in the same room. >> In the same room, everybody's sitting in the same room together. And just because he and you don't, so he's allowed to do something in chabas, you're not allowed to. What's that? >> He can dream. >> He can dream. He can also dream. >> What's the connection to dreams and handcuffs? >> What's that? >> What was that? >> Says, "You're not allowed to read to the light of the candle." Why? We're afraid. Maybe you're going to tilt the candle and you're going to cause more oil to be consumed and have not allowed to do this. Says that if your hands are tied up, you're allowed to because you won't be able to do it. You try doing this, it's going to fall on you. You're never going to do says if your hands are tied, if your hand if you tie your hands your kids hands, I'm not suggesting to do that. I'm not suggesting that or your wife. I'm not suggesting to do that or yourself. You'll be able this gazer doesn't apply to you and you'll be able to read to the light of the candle on chabas >> doesn't count the new shabus lights you just move a you move the uh the piece down makes the light brighter or lighter that's not like doing oil >> electricity is a whole big disc electricity a whole big discussion does this apply to or not but the mishaba has an invention he says even talking about candles if you put a sign next to your candles today is shabas Just remember that should serve as a and this gazer won't apply. But if you forgot to put one or you don't put one and your hands are tied up for whatever reason, this gazer doesn't apply to you and you'll be able to read to the light of the candle. Let's move to Kaneka. Where's the best place to light the door? >> Why over there? There's another mitz in the that has to do with door post. Which one is that? >> That's already there. another that you have to go to the door and do something. He says, "I don't want to leave. I'm having a great time with my master. I'm staying." You got to take him by the doorpost and pierce his ear. Why over there? But on the porch, [clears throat] why by the doorstep? So when dopost what does dopost represent? We came back and we smeared some blood on the dopost. So the door and the dopost are the WITNESSES THAT THIS MAN HEARD YOU SHOULD BE SLAVES to me and not slaves to slaves. Sole Davka and Kanuka when we said we do not want to be subjected and slaves of the Greek the Greeks not the Greek sculpture not the Greek Greek spirit we want to only be slaves to we go da to the doorpost and now we have another witness the candles the door the door post now we have three strong coalition three witnesses that will testify to these people are only interested in being slaves to you and not to anyone else >> who Is that the candle, the door post? >> The door, the doorpost and the candles that you light over there is the testimony that you do not want to subject yourself to the Greek philosophy, culture, and spirit. Says, "A house that has two entrances, one on this street and one on the other, you have to light in both." Why? Cuz if somebody passes on this side and they don't see a mana, they're going to suspect you. What's going on with this guy? I thought he's from he doesn't light candles. And therefore, even though you lit on the other side, little lighting bolts. So people shouldn't suspect you comes the base and asks a question. Wait a second. Why is this different than the where we learn if one is not allowed to pass by a shul in the time of dening and not enter the sh what are people going to say? He's not room. He doesn't want to den with us. But if the shul has two entrances, no problem. You can pass by. Nobody's going to suspect you. So wait a second. People are not going to suspect me if there's two entrances regarding the sh. But people will suspect me regarding Kanuka. There's two entries. What's the difference? What are you saying? >> Why suspect people? >> But the says people won't suspect you. >> That's what that's what you got. >> Says don't cause don't do things that will cause others to suspect you. You're right. Each individual should maybe be judging you favorably, but you're doing it to yourself. Why are you passing by the time? So don't do things that will cause others to raise what's going on with this guy. But there is a suspicion, but there is no suspicion regarding a when there's two entrances. There is a suspicion regarding the two entrances and you better do something about it and light in both places. Why is that? >> On both places. >> No one. But why do you have to go an extra mile and do light in both both directions? >> And says no regarding the >> but if people think that you're he's going to the farther entrance >> good is to light in a different further away entrance. No, you're right. And therefore it says that's the reason that's the difference between the two comes out according to there is a greater if you go to the other entrance. So when you know the two entrances and I'm passing by I'm not coming in you're thinking okay probably wants to get a few more minutes it's on the way he's going to go to the further entrance. There is no reason to prefer a different entrance in if there is there's more in the other entrance. You not going to have to light on the other side because everybody knows it's a much busier street over there. It's a big accord. >> You can't see the first the first >> everybody everybody knows that that street is very very busy and they know you have an entrance over there and they also know you have here but it's a very quiet. So everybody should understand you know why he probably didn't light here. own light over there. Bring up your suba is going to come at you're not going to have to light in both directions which should be because didn't say that >> first entrance is on the fifth floor. So I got a light downstairs also. >> You can't see that. >> No, we're talking about a house which is the a yard which has an entrance here and this street and entrance and this street not a private not a private private apartment in the building. the B Y himself answers his question and he says Davening is different because if you don't come into the sh the time of Davening it's as if you remove from yourself the yoke of heaven it's much more severe and therefore people will suspect you but when there's two entrance nobody's going to think that you're going to remove the yoke of heaven obviously you went from the different entrance has nothing to do with the yoke of heaven people will suspect you it's so severe dening so we say people are not going to suspect you when they have a chance not to because there's two entrances is not like that Or the BF explains a strange answer. He says Kanuka involves a monetary loss. You have to buy the oil or the candles and you have to light it. Monetary loss. So people will suspect you there's no monetary loss. Remember there's no reason to suspect you when THERE'S TWO ENTRANCES. HE PROBABLY CAME through the other door. It says the T. What are you talking about? And Ding is not a monetary loss. I can be in business. I can be in my job instead of being here stuck in the show forever. Of course it's a monetary loss. So comes the grandson of says no no there is a difference you have to be active and go and spend money that's by being in not making money that's you're not making more money but it's not called so that's the wanted to say the says differently there's no reason to say that in they're going to suspect him again when there's two entrances because the many times that you see him in time of governing you see him in the marketplace and that's 100% kosher many times one is allowed not to be in the sho he's passing by and he has a good reason he's going to a doctor he's exempt from whatever reason there's no reason to respect him but that's not the case because everybody has to light so how come you didn't light there's no exemptions from the and because he goes back to the original answer of the if you don't go into it's like you remove the yoke of you want to be involved with The at the time that they accept themselves the yoke of shimle domining people won't suspect you when there's two entrance because they'll say he's not going to do such a severe thing. Of course he probably going to go through this the other entrance but is not like that and that's the reason we mentioned I think last week or two weeks ago the idea that for a positive mitzvah one has to spend up to >> 20% of his assets. Good. A strange a person who is poor. He's so poor that he actually goes collecting. He doesn't have enough for for a candle. What does he have TO DO? SELL MY SHIRT. SELL my shirt. It's more than 20% of what I have. Why does he HAVE TO SELL HIS SHIRT? HINDU MITRA is for fulfilling a mitzvah only up to 20%. But you're telling HIM TO SELL THE SHIRT. IT COULD BE THAT IT'S MUCH MORE THAN 20%. Why did become and by the way is only so why does it obligate you to sell your shirt? Many many deal with this question. And some say we learn that when you light the candles you say and you say who spoke to you yesterday and he commanded you to light the candles. What do you mean? Where did he write it IN THE DID NOT WRITE IN THE LIGHT OF CANDLES? So how do you say it's what does it mean? He did not command us. Yes, he did. Cuz in him, he says, "You better not deviate an inch to the right, to the left, from whatever the tell you. Don't deviate." That's a and for a for negative commandment, you have TO SPEND EVERYTHING YOU HAVE. The reason you have to sell your shirt is not for the positive aspect of the mitzvah. It's for the negative aspect of the mitzvah that forces you to spend everything you have. But if that's true, that's true to any positive mitzvah. It entails au don't deviate. So some say is different because it's better than all other mites and therefore it's like a from the or from the Torah and that's why you should be a you should have you will have to not you and will have to even sell his shirt which is more than 20%. Some say [clears throat] since thisness was done above nature so you go above your normal nature normally you only have to spend up to 20% says the here you would have to spend even more than that differently in we learn who does everything right what will he have oh that means they're going to learn we said a couple weeks ago that learning to you can spend more than 20%. How much did he spend? 50% from that little dollar that he used to make every single day. He gave 50% of that to the garden in the entrance of the light. You're allowed to spend more than 20% and that's why it obligates you to sell your shirt. According to that also we can explain if you're going to have I'm not investing in the mitzvah. >> [snorts] >> I'm investing in my future and to invest in my future I can spend much more than 20%. You're going to tell me where to invest my money. I'm investing in if I think a special a certain and it's going to be very good for my kid I'm not allowed to even though it's more than 20%. This is the greatest in the world. It's called that produces for me I'm investing in that and that's why one would even have to spend more than 20% of his assets. There's a husband and wife who are together in the house. Who normally lights the candles? >> Husband. When is it that they're both healthy? There's no vows or anything like that. And yet the woman, wife, he she should light candles. >> But it's going to be too late. >> They're both they're both there together >> in the house. >> They're both in the house looking at each other. And he says to you're running today. Two possible answers. >> She only has enough candles for Shabas or >> they have 700 candles at home. >> 701. Sorry. 702. Gimatia Shabis. >> Ashkar together and Yemenite a little too early. >> The husband was Shabas early. >> He went to D. >> Yeah. He wanted all that every week. Heab Shabas early because he wants to d in. He made a mistake. It was shab. He can't tell him to go light now. So he has to tell his wife and you light now. One answer. The other answer. The husband became an oen. >> The husband became an oen. His relative passed away and he still wasn't buried. At that time you don't do mitzvah. >> Okay? >> But we don't want to lose the mitzvah tonight. So he says to his wife, "Wife, you light the candles." And he just watches. That could be on a Friday, could be on a Monday, can be on a Wednesday. You did so well in the previous riddle half. Riddle of all riddles of Hanukah. What's the most you can say when lighting candles >> and one per night? Three. And they are three. Everybody agrees. And my riddle is what is IT YOU LIE YOU SAY 10 BLESSINGS [screaming] OVER THE CANDLES. 10 blessings in one night for the same action that you just told me. The most you can have is three. 10. 10 points. 10 blessings. 10 points. >> Don't know what you're going to do with them, but you get 10 points if you know it. >> At the lighter, >> you're lighting candles. Every night you do two or three. The first night you do three. Every other night you say two brahos. And tonight you're going to say 10 brahos for the candles. Not because you bought a new garment or anything like that for the candles. >> 10. It could be less. Could be nine and eight and seven and SIX AND FIVE AND FOUR. But the most you can say is this. So I'm going with that. And for that I'm willing to give you 10 points. 10 points. You remember me having giving 10 points. What do you say? >> [snorts] >> You may lose the other two points. Be careful. >> I only have half the answer. >> Brave man. Yeah, >> it's on the >> Okay. Eight candles plus two more. >> And they are for candles. >> Somehow we're going to a situation where you lit a candle and you have to light it again the next one with a bra. Maybe. Okay. Here it is. You did. No. >> What's that? >> He has to do it. >> He's doing what? >> He didn't put it in the right place. >> He's a villain. Talking about and together standing together who said the book guy from before have an answer. >> What's that? His match went out. He lit it and he wanted to continue. If you hold that that that that pursum needs also. So he tried laying the first one but then it went out and he needed >> and who holds a puma requires a ba >> h >> and who holds a puma in its own requires a >> then we get 10 points. I can answer that. >> We have 15 points. >> The answer is if one forgot to say the first night and remembers the second night. What did it do? [clears throat] He say then >> what if he forgot the entire week to say shakanu he remembers on the eighth day what should he do and that's what happened this guy night unfortunately only has one candle so he lights that candle and he says oh forget YOUR CANDLE LAST WEEK HOW MANY PROPHETS DID HE say >> so we only miss >> seven right after he lit his friend runs OVER AND SAYS OH I FOUND YOU HAVE A CANDLE according to the opinion that you say for who are his OPINIONS brings him. So he says another that's the fourth. Two seconds later another friend comes. I found another candle. For every candle that he will say another candle. >> Two seconds later another friend COMES. I FOUND ANOTHER CANDLE and I found another I found I found I found another candle and he gets seven new candles and seven new bra along with the first three that he said all together 10os 10 points. Sorry, you're going to have to save me for a different time. But this is according to the opinion of the Abu brought in the you say for a beautifying of a mitzvah for he do mitzvah. Obviously not everybody agrees according to this opinion 10us. Obviously it can also be 9 and 8 and 754. If it happens in the second night or third or fourth and fifth night accordingly you just have to add more per candle that you will light after not having them initially when you lit the Each one of them requires a few if you only if you didn't know they were coming >> of course otherwise you were talking about a villain I talked about the BOY [screaming] FROM the land of Shilas listen to a crazy is a store owner says the following. I sell donuts, special donuts for Galdik, not your regular jam. Is a Hindu mitzah type of a donut with all kinds of I don't know vanilla and chocolate cream inside whatever you want. Each donut like this cost eight shekels. Regular regularly it's much less of the the simple donuts but this is eight shekels. So he says one day he had a special mah special sale and instead of eight shekels only four shekels. He wants to bring people into the store. Good. A few days after this sale a young buck comes in and he doesn't look like he wants to buy anything. He looks embarrassed and upset. He goes over to the store and says, "Can I speak to you for a second?" "Yeah." Takes it aside. Says, "Listen, I'm so sorry. I came to apologize. I stumbled a few days ago. You had a sale. You invited people come in and the smell of the donuts. Get in. I couldn't resist. I couldn't resist. I didn't have the money. I took 10 donuts to give to my family and I came home and I gave them. They were so excited. But then said, "Where did you get 80 shekels from?" And my father is no fool. And he started interrogating me and he realized I told him listen I acquired him Kenyan Mashik without Kenyan Kf I [laughter] did Mashik I killed him but no KF involved my father immediately gave me 40 shekels to give you and therefore I came here now to apologize please forgive me and here's the money and the ster says to you I really appreciate it but you still owe me another 40 shekels which is why you publicize your big size you're ALL OVER FOUR SHEKELS TODAY SO WHAT DID I I took donuts which are worth four shekels each time 10 that's 40 shekels. Excuse me. Excuse excuse me. The sale was for buyers not for shoplifterss. It's not a sale for gnav. It's a sale for normal HUMAN BEINGS. HONEST NOT FOR GUN. What are you kidding me? The real price is eight shekels. Imagine system there's a store owner who sells a whole chicken for one shekel because he wants to bring people in and somebody comes and steals a chicken. The value really is 20 shekels. You think he only has to pay one shekele because today he decided to sell it for one shekele. Obviously the value of this chicken is 20 shekels. The value of this donut is eight shekels, not four. The fact that I reduced it for a few hours because I wanted to get some people in doesn't mean that you have to pay only 40 shekels. You have to pay 80 shekels. And the guy says, "Listen, I caused you a loss of 40 shekels because if it wasn't me stealing them, somebody else would buy them for 40 shekels. So how much did I cost you to lose?" 40 shekels. So I don't have to pay spend more than 40 shekels. What do we do? >> 80 shekels. 160 shekels. >> NO, I MEAN 80 THE REAL [screaming] VALUE. WHY? >> Because he's going to know double. He has to pay double. >> Uh double that's in basin. We don't do that today. >> No. >> No. He wants to know between the two what he should pay. >> The value. >> The real value is what? Eight. >> Uh-huh. >> What about what? >> He's not the real value. The real eight is how much he needs. >> Eight is what I normally sell it today. I sold it for four. To whom? To people who want to buy it, not to him. >> I normally sell not the value of this. He's calling that a headset. The motorcycle adds to paying for the air conditioning or the heater in the store also and the lights and paying for the salary of people. That's not the value of the donut. The donut is value. >> So when you when you steal something from a store, you don't have to pay according to the value that they sell it at. >> Market value. >> What about sold out? Sold out his full supply. >> Yeah. >> Then that guy took another 40 shots that he would have gotten had he not. leftovers anyways. So, >> so what's the difference? Anyways, you wouldn't sell it. >> He took it. >> What's the for what you're saying? Where'd you get this from? Did you go to B and that's where you got it from? I think you did. Let's explain what it means. The tells us a story. There wereim, what are we going to callers? They helped the store owner. >> Porters. >> Porters. They help the store owner carry the barrels of wine. They were negligent and they destroyed one barrel bar barrel of wine. The whole thing spilled and the price on the market day is five zoos. Let's switch it to dollars. $5. Non-market days where there's much less demand. It's only four zoos only $4. What should they pay? $4 or $5. They destroyed it. When the market value is five some kind of a similar to our case, a regular price and then there's a market. There's a market day when everybody comes. Less demand, more demand. When I invite people, there's more, there's less. Here, it's the reverse because I invite more people and I reduce the price. That's I want to bring people into my store. But the idea is the same. So, how much do these borders have to pay? $5 or $4? >> Five. >> Five. Always. >> Can they say, "You know what? I don't want to pay you. I'm going to give you back a barrel of wine." >> You're saying, "Yeah." >> Let's see what the says. >> The dean is like this. If they pay him on the market day or just before they can pay him either a barrel of wine or $5. If they pay him other days, non-market days, they still have to pay him $5 and they cannot give him a barrel of wine. Why can't they be give him a barrel of wine? The porter can't say to the store, you know what, why don't you take this barrel and just wait one day there will be another market day. Next month there will be another one. They're not let it. It's very similar to what he's saying. Why this dean that they have to pay after the market after the market day $5. It's only if the store owner was missing wine. He sold everything and he could have sold this as well. But if he had extra wine and he didn't sell it. So then he cannot say I said I I could have made a bundle here. you broke it for me because he didn't sell what he had and therefore the porters can actually give a barrel back. So the is about the what exactly does this mean? They have a lot of different questions. When exactly do the porters break the barrel? When do they have to pay five? When can they give an barrel of wine? When is it sufficient to say you know what give $4 and that's also good? There's ma major three shitos regarding this. the of the whether the person is a mazik cause damage or whether he's a thief he has to pay like the time whatever it is in the time that you damaged the goods that the value back then that is what you have to pay and we don't care if the value of it moved up or down the raam says a mazik person who damaged has to pay like the value at the time that he pays you come back two weeks later two years later and there's inflation So you have to pay according to the new value gazlan according to the according to the time that he stole it and even though it moved up in value or it devalued doesn't make a difference he pays according to according to the understanding if at the time of everybody knows this thing will move in price tomorrow is the market day or for whatever reason this thing this item will move up in price he has to pay because of dini gma is indirect damage GMI is a more direct damage and we force a person even though he only damage him in a indirect way but it's a much more direct type of a damage than the GMA he has to pay it because of that he has to pay the new value that will be the following day in the market day going back to our at the time that he stole the donuts they were worth 40 shekels we should say he has to pay 80 Why 80? It's not like the person who destroyed the barrel of uh of wine that the price is let's say four shekels because he only has to pay four shekels because the real value of these donuts are 80 shekels and only because of the sale I'm willing to reduce it to four shekels and yet in our case he only has to spend 40 shekels and not 80. Why? The donuts that you sold today you wouldn't be able to sell tomorrow if they were left over. What are you saying? I caused you a loss, you wouldn't be able to sell it. They were dry, stale donuts. Who would buy tomorrow's don yesterday's donuts for eight shekels? Nobody would do that. So if this person wouldn't steal them, you would be able to sell them and get what? You would get only four shekels per donut. So what loss did I cause you? The most that I cause you is 40 shekels. So the most I have to pay is 40 shekels. If it would be something that I can sell tomorrow, it was a drrele doesn't expire. it doesn't become stale and you have some donuts left over and you sold let's say it's a donut that time resistant it doesn't expire after a day and you sold them the following day for 80 shekels so then the guy who stole it he would have to spend the entire 80 shekels we have to spend because that's the real value of these donuts and the store owner did the sale only for customers who want to buy not for ganav so when you do a special sale it's for people who actually want to spend money not for ganav for ganav Wheel price stays at 80. If you come in and say my name is Aanov can I have it for four shekel as well? I don't think any store owner will say sure why don't you take it for four shekels. The store says have a special rate. It's called eight. According to this in this case the will have to pay back only 40 shekels should only be
