- 0:01OK, good morning. We are continuing with Kuf
- 0:05eyeing Tet, so he's on my own name.
- 0:08Oh, Makashi. Makashi.
- 0:10So just interesting to point out the shoot of the Rashba, the
- 0:17Rishon Taylor Olive Tav, you're Gilmo.
- 0:19So he writes in there towards the end that it's very unclear
- 0:24what's Asura motor with when is it Nikhush and when is it as
- 0:29Simon Tovora that you're allowed to rely on it?
- 0:33So we're all in good company. If it's a little bit confusing
- 0:37and he writes it's best to be to follow whatever Hazal said.
- 0:41If they said it's Mutter, it's Mutter, it's Aser, it's Aser,
- 0:44and then you know you're safe. OK, just want to throw that out
- 0:46there. A Kamea, Kamea, Kamea, what is
- 0:50that? So just again, Kamea, just to
- 0:52realize it could be what could be written in there, this
- 0:56amulet, it could be Bisoukian, it could be shameless of Hashem,
- 1:00it could be anything. It could be random words or
- 1:03names or whatever it is. So just and they all have and it
- 1:09all depends obviously, who writes it, who's recognize known
- 1:14mumukha, who's not, which things work for sure, which things work
- 1:18for not that just related to this halakhos and Shabbos.
- 1:22Now back to thanks to Ramosha. I just wanted to clarify a
- 1:28slight correction and to clarify and your bet when we read
- 1:32Motorola Trapote by Kameen a feel yeish bahan Shamot.
- 1:37So it's like it goes like this if there is soaking inside the
- 1:44amulet. So then it's only a motor to
- 1:48protect but not as a Shamira but not to heal.
- 1:54But unless it's Piku Akhenatvesh, fine.
- 1:57But if it's just shameless of Hashem or anything other other
- 2:01words or names or whatever, so then it is mutter to even heal
- 2:08with it. It's only the absuchium that
- 2:11Khazal were. I don't know if they want to use
- 2:14goes there or categorize which is aser.
- 2:18And again, the reasoning for the absuk, for the isser of Rafua
- 2:23from sukim is the Rambam writes it's either khover or nikhush.
- 2:29And because it's Khfira Khofer batara, you're well, well, it
- 2:36depends how you define what khover is, but that's what he
- 2:40writes. So all these words again, all
- 2:43these words have multiple explanations in the Gemara
- 2:46Rishonim and but that I just wanted to point out.
- 2:50There's different reasons why later a poet from Dvre Tara is
- 2:53aser, but it's not really clear. The Kumar just says it like a
- 2:56given. The Kumar doesn't really explain
- 2:58clearly at all. It might be because of the Zion,
- 3:02it might be because of darke Amori.
- 3:05Anyways, let's just wanted to clarify that now.
- 3:09Is it only sukim that it's aser to use for a fua or is it also
- 3:14mishnayas or anything else of the Vaitara?
- 3:17So Pashtas from the actually, when you look at it inside from
- 3:20the, the Rambam and the Shalkhanarak, we see they only
- 3:23use the word sukum, the Gumar itself in Sanhedrin Qaf Aleph
- 3:27Ahmed Aleph, it sounds like, or maybe whatever it sounds like,
- 3:32it's only referring to sukum because and it says even if it
- 3:38doesn't have a sham's name, it's still a problem.
- 3:41But it doesn't bring down braces or mishnayas that are a problem.
- 3:44And also from Rashi, you know, it's Masha like that.
- 3:46Raphessen also says that that it's not.
- 3:49We just go with what Khazal said.
- 3:51OK, we learned. But if it's Derekhtfila, you're
- 3:55allowed to that's the minute. If it's Derekhtfila, even if
- 3:59it's OK, but not just a random pus, if it's not a speaking,
- 4:05speaking, even speaking, if it's Derekt Fila, it's mutter.
- 4:08But if it's a puzzle that it's not a Fila for you.
- 4:11It's just this person walked here.
- 4:13I don't know, whatever the puzzle, sorry, but whatever it
- 4:17is, right, Something like that. So that is is so that it's not
- 4:25really a fila per SE. Again, maybe it could be, but in
- 4:28general, those are the things that what's usser.
- 4:31But if you're saying Tehalem, Derek Tfila and you you
- 4:33understand the meanings of the Tehalem and it's that's a
- 4:36different story. OK, let me say that fine, I
- 4:41think we're going to go on inside Tetvav O heis ET hainayen
- 4:47aser. So OK, grab in the eyes.
- 4:50What is that? So first of all, pasha's, it's
- 4:55the love of either one. It's either you'll see in the
- 4:57post game it's either because of my own name or because of Kishu
- 5:02right from the what's the love and the pasa?
- 5:04Cause either one of those two the Pasa doesn't say OK, is it a
- 5:06nine? And what is it so Well, trickery
- 5:13with the eyes, magic, magic show, sleight of hand,
- 5:16illusions. OK, so the words were referred
- 5:19to. I'll just read from the the Shah
- 5:21which is close to Rambam, the gam ahizat enaim shaheno ayude
- 5:26kishoof Ayude khalut hatsunua biyad assa.
- 5:33So the ramen clearly writes you can do magic with kishoof or you
- 5:38can do it with without Kishoof. And either way, it's an Isser de
- 5:44Arisa according to the Rambam Pasha's it's in Sidereisa.
- 5:48Whatever, I'm jump. But it's certainly a Sir.
- 5:52OK, either under a moanin or Akisha.
- 5:58Fine. I'll pause now.
- 5:59Just real quick, something about magic shows.
- 6:02So is it nowadays when we have magic shows, is it a Sir, a
- 6:05mutter? So we just saw Sholkhanar
- 6:08doesn't really explain what is OK zete and I am other than just
- 6:11saying that does that apply to magic shows and the so the Rama
- 6:17seems to be parshas from the Rambam is definitely asser and
- 6:21so baskin Abad Yosef and Shevid Halevi that it's isser de arisa
- 6:29OK. However many and I believe the
- 6:34general Menagh among most Jews is that we allow it that it's
- 6:38Sammutter if we know that there's no psychic powers over
- 6:43here. You know if the illusionist is
- 6:45telling you he's using psychic powers.
- 6:47So then Rupasha's everyone agrees it's awesome.
- 6:50But if everyone knows and he admits he's just doing tricks,
- 6:54he's quick sleight of hand. Whatever it is, then it's mutter
- 6:59egos Moshe in your idea and Caleb Dalit just point out
- 7:03that's after, I believe after he passed away.
- 7:06So that's Khayla Dalid and Yan Gilmore.
- 7:08So he writes, I don't really want to answer and say it's
- 7:10mutter, but if you force me, then I say it's mutter at
- 7:13weddings because everyone knows that it's not real.
- 7:17And of Jaco Schomberg, he writes for at least Afanski's
- 7:24Dafiyomishir. And anyway, so he has a few nice
- 7:27things there. So I just got a few things from
- 7:29him. He I did not look at everything
- 7:31inside, but he points out they say the shame of Alyasha, they
- 7:35say shame others as well. That you the magician should
- 7:39first show, I don't know this is really done, but should show 3
- 7:45or 4 tricks to show you how he does it so that you know it's
- 7:49not us as in shuvas and Haggos he writes the Khazanish writes
- 7:55it's mutter. As long as everyone knows that
- 7:57it's all a hoax, it's not real. The what I want to just point
- 8:02out is the Radbaz is the one who points out it's not aser if
- 8:07there's no psychic powers, but it's aser of Geneva's das.
- 8:12But if everyone knows it's according to Radbaz who argues
- 8:15on the Rambam, it's not even a problem.
- 8:17OK so 2 opinions when it comes to magic shows.
- 8:21OK right? The main point is you're not.
- 8:24You're not using Rua Khatuma and you're not trying to the little
- 8:29the Tara and you know Al anisim are all a joke.
- 8:32Whatever different reasons why it's it's it's us, Sir.
- 8:35OK, let's go on inside Ted continuing Tedvab the Al Yadei
- 8:42Seifer Yitzira mutter, but everything is mutter if you're
- 8:46using the book called Seifer Yitzira.
- 8:49I think they say Abraham Avinu wrote it.
- 8:51I think that's who it's ascribed to.
- 8:54But anyways, it's it's butter filu laga, writes La sot maisa.
- 9:00You could even use Seifer Yatsira to do things.
- 9:05What's it called? Right Kurshbark who creates
- 9:08everything Zella umadzeh. You can use.
- 9:11You can, you can use Other than the Rambam every pretty much
- 9:16everyone agrees you can use. You can make what's it called?
- 9:21I don't know, sorcery? If it's done through Koh Katuma
- 9:24it's a Sir and if it's done through shamus of a Karish bar,
- 9:28who it is? It is motor.
- 9:33No, the ROM just says you can't, doesn't work.
- 9:36The ROM doesn't believe in anything working.
- 9:40Maybe Shamus Hashem works, but not Koh Hashem.
- 9:47So that's across the board motor, correct.
- 9:50I don't know anyone who says it's a problem.
- 9:52We we see it all over in Shah's stories.
- 9:56We see it in the Sholkhanarak and it's mutter to use shameless
- 9:59Hashem. You're Seifer Yatzira.
- 10:01That's really what Seifer Yatzira is and a couple
- 10:06different explanations If you read through different different
- 10:10books, but different Spharima Pharshim.
- 10:13Basically the idea is if you're using Kohosatuma, so that in
- 10:18itself is usser, as opposed to using God's Nivim or God's
- 10:23Hashem's KOA. And some explain the way Hashem
- 10:28makes the world work. Is he he?
- 10:31It's through. Well, you want to see through
- 10:34malachim through. There's certain channels and
- 10:37pipes from the heavenly spheres that come down into this world
- 10:41and everything goes through them in the way that a Qurarshbar who
- 10:44designed it. And if you're using Kochos
- 10:48Ettuma, you're not going up to the source.
- 10:52The source is the shaman are closer, higher levels, closer to
- 10:56a Kurdish barku between a Kurdish Barku and the level of
- 11:00the angels. I don't know Olomatsilos Bria
- 11:02down to it's Itzira. We're in a Sia.
- 11:07But if you're if you're going up on higher levels, then that's
- 11:12even how the world was created. We all know the world was
- 11:15created with the shameless of a Kurdish Barkhu.
- 11:18So those are the permitted ways. What happens is if you use KOA
- 11:22Khatuma to do, to change nature, make miracles, what you're doing
- 11:28is you're you're messing with the pipes on the levels of the
- 11:33angels and you're making things happen.
- 11:36And then the angels get confused, everything gets
- 11:39haywire. The angels don't know what
- 11:40they're doing, things get misplaced or taken from them,
- 11:44and things are not in the proper order.
- 11:46And it makes chaos in the, in the holy, in the, in the worlds
- 11:51of of Rochnius and all right, it's either an affront to a
- 11:57Kaddish Barku and his style or his is shameless in his way
- 12:03anyways. And in Rafael Vita and I have
- 12:07from Shari Kedusha just basically asks how come we don't
- 12:11do it nowadays? The point is, nowadays we don't
- 12:15do Maisa Kabbalah too much with what's it called?
- 12:20There you go, Kabbalah Masi. Exactly.
- 12:22That's what I'm trying to say. We do not use it too much
- 12:24nowadays because we don't have people aren't necessarily holy
- 12:29enough, aren't we have more sin attached to us.
- 12:33We don't have the ashes of paraduma, which was lost with
- 12:37abaya and rava. So things that were done up
- 12:40until abaya and rava are not necessarily done anymore and
- 12:44it's much more dangerous. And if we are going to be this
- 12:47is from asking there is all. And if we try and do things
- 12:53nowadays, it's we're doing it on a much lower level and it's much
- 12:58more dangerous. There's kohos hara mixed in
- 13:02Kohasatuma. Even if you try and do it with
- 13:05the and it's just and a lot of people get in trouble here.
- 13:08The is it's that's actually in it's in the Shah.
- 13:12He writes that as well. We're going to read, you know,
- 13:15we're actually, this is where we are in the Shah.
- 13:17I mean, a lot of this is what I just said is a little bit in the
- 13:20Shah in your head, right? He writes even the khakila,
- 13:24you're allowed to, but nowadays, but I'm going to say, I'm going
- 13:28to say no Harabi, and we don't. And he quotes ishtamash pittaga
- 13:32kholaf. If a person uses the crown of
- 13:35Kabbalah to do miracles, then kholaf, he may die.
- 13:41And you're in the Cific Muhammad kubalim.
- 13:45It's saying it's an avocado nowadays to be mishtamish
- 13:48besheimos and it's it's dangerous.
- 13:51Think that's enough. I just one last thing.
- 13:54This is all related to here of the golem.
- 13:56So yes, a golem according to most of ghazal and from the
- 14:01Gumaras Mishoni mahoni. There is such a concept and it
- 14:05was done regarding the Maharal mi Prague.
- 14:09It's also from his book, from his thing here, but it's it's
- 14:11known there's no real source to show that the Maharal mi Prague
- 14:15did a golem, but it's brought down in the Hachem SVI, a major,
- 14:20a major posek of long early acronym quotes from Eliya Rabbi
- 14:25Eliyao Alkhelm, also known as Rabbi Eliyao Balchemto, who did
- 14:30make a golem. He says maybe it's that was the
- 14:34Maharalmi Prague, the golem that's referred to because they
- 14:37were friends that lived there on the same time at the same time
- 14:40and the golem was getting too dangerous.
- 14:43So he removed the shame from the golem's forehead.
- 14:46But as he did that, he got a good zets and he got a permanent
- 14:49scar. Anyways, let's but we see that
- 14:52all these things are mutter if you're using shameless of a
- 14:56Kurdish bar. OK, OK, let's go on to Tet Zain
- 15:07Mai says Shaydim is Aser. So this is a Machlokis in the
- 15:11Gemara in the Rishonium. Is it muttar asar?
- 15:14Basically you're asking a either you're using a maisa to have a
- 15:18shade, or even you're asking a shade to do something for you to
- 15:22do a maisa for you. That is Shokanar Paskan's is
- 15:26asar bahem hageneva. But let's say you lost
- 15:33something. He says you are allowed to ask
- 15:35the shading for advice. Where is it?
- 15:38But you are not. But you're not allowed to ask
- 15:40them to do a mysa. That's under the halacha of
- 15:44Kishu, the Esther Derisa of Kishu OK Hagar.
- 15:48But the Rama says wait a second, first there's a coyote bazet and
- 15:54anything the like you're allowed to ask about Hashu Hashmashbiya
- 15:59hashba. OK shamash bil Tam same thing.
- 16:03Aydesh shemot yeesh matirin beko inyan.
- 16:07But you are allowed to make make them swear to do something with
- 16:14the shameless, I'm assuming shameless of Hashem.
- 16:16But ask the Rama. But he says you're allowed to.
- 16:21Some say you're allowed to, but that seems like that's how he
- 16:24passed in Zumi Ikar adin as far as the isser of Kishov right?
- 16:28He argues on the show hanarak Omiko makomi writes rova
- 16:32oskimbaze enam nivtarian man be Shalom.
- 16:35But most people who start doing things even with the with the
- 16:39shameless to get the shading to do stuff for them, then they
- 16:44often do not do not have peace out of this and they get hurt or
- 16:50killed alkain shomer nasho yerhak mayhem.
- 16:54So therefore it better to avoid this and stay safe.
- 16:58OK, let's go on to your zein. And no hagim la arroch shokhan.
- 17:04He mean a Mahabalayil hamila. This you really had already.
- 17:07It was mentioned in the Rama. Some people, they make a whole
- 17:10meal the night before abrasmila, whether it's the Britney taught
- 17:15by the Swardium or the the Vashnath by the Ashkenazi, the
- 17:19omrim shuhula mazal hatinok assa.
- 17:22So if you're setting up a meal but not eating, that's what's
- 17:27asser. It's because it resembles a
- 17:31Minot of of shadium from azalos or whatever it is, whatever
- 17:37exactly the source is what we had that before.
- 17:39So that's what's what you're allowed to eat it.
- 17:42Yeah, it's models. It's there's a Passat that
- 17:45alludes to it or that we see that there's such a Minot by it
- 17:48says Lagarde. OK, very good on it.
- 17:50But it's by the Shulkhan, right. We learned that before earlier
- 17:53in the Simon. Very good.
- 17:55Or was it last Simon your head, the katera bite the ace of
- 18:01shishko raya toe yeesha O SER alien Cain OSA kade the hasir
- 18:09raya RA. So here he writes because it was
- 18:13common for shading. It looks like you are giving
- 18:17Akhtara incense for shading. Burning sage, burning some kind
- 18:24of a of an herb, so I don't know, only sage, OK, but some
- 18:29kind of a sage that's just to make the house smell good.
- 18:33So because it looks like you're doing it for shading, it's us.
- 18:39But if it's because it smells, there's a foul smell in the
- 18:43house in the room. So then for sure it's mutter.
- 18:49OK, How far do we take it? I don't know.
- 18:54Let's see. I guess anything that would look
- 18:55like it's a it's done for mice, a shade.
- 18:58I'm not sure if anything is done nowadays that we're familiar,
- 19:02but I guess it depends where you live and who you hang out with.
- 19:06Right. So they still do that.
- 19:08I don't know. Sticks, cinnamon, I don't know.
- 19:10But here the only yesterday I know about is what we see here.
- 19:15I don't know if I would take it beyond that.
- 19:17OK, I don't know you a tete, I'm the Qatar lacheye la carvera O
- 19:22la cofa Las olas or izono if you are burning incense for shading,
- 19:28either to be friendly, to be able to get close to them,
- 19:31whatever it's referring to and get in order to get them to do
- 19:34something for you. So that's hayev mushum oved E
- 19:38Lilian. In other words, that's haktara.
- 19:40It's incense, whether it's for a shade or you know, that's also
- 19:45part of of what azar. OK, so that's azar.
- 19:50OK, so any practice that's done for that?
- 19:52OK, I don't know. OK, question, how far do you
- 19:59take it for modern day practices?
- 20:01OK, let's I don't have an answer.
- 20:04So anyways, how long Hello. Made mean ha angoshi afilu dvrey
- 20:08Tara sayev mita. Now if you're learning from an
- 20:12angoshi, even dvrey Tara pirakhayev.
- 20:15So what is that? So the Shah explains.
- 20:21One second. So it depends if it's a if it's
- 20:26a person who's a who does avada Zara so then it's ASA.
- 20:31If it's a not even a Jew or non Jew doesn't matter who doesn't
- 20:35practice Avada Zara. I believe that Rashaq says it is
- 20:39mutter to learn from him one second.
- 20:46So he writes the Mucha Lomar, Ngoshi Mikhashev, Devritara, the
- 20:52inane Kishuf Lahavin Olaharas. I think he's referring to not
- 21:00Devritara itself. OK, I'd say even only Kishuf I
- 21:06think is what he's referring to. You're allowed to learn Kishu
- 21:08from them but not wait one second, maybe even Devritara.
- 21:13OK, I'm not sure exactly. Sorry.
- 21:18OK, let's start. Hokos tobit Kaka ukrika.
- 21:23OK. Is tibat Kaka ukrika al Hamas.
- 21:27So what is this Alef? This is in Simon Kufpe.
- 21:31Alef tobit Kaka hainu sisarit al basar Mamali Malcolm Hasrita
- 21:37Kocha Odio Oshard Sivonim Hiroshimi.
- 21:42OK, Oh, Cole makes much, much sense.
- 21:49Cole makes sense. Blue Cole.
- 21:53I have Cole. I don't know.
- 21:56OK, so anyways, regardless, anytime you what is what is a
- 22:01tattoo, Cole is according to the graph, OK, Anyways, it means
- 22:09blue ink. So black ink, blue ink or any
- 22:12ink or anything, even not ink, that leaves a permanent mark.
- 22:18Now, in order to be told Kaka, it has to be an element of
- 22:22Qsiva. We're going to see what that
- 22:24means. And an element of Kaka, which
- 22:26means penetrating the skin, piercing, scratching, but it has
- 22:30to be where it opens up the top level of the skin, the
- 22:34epidermis, and it goes underneath so it doesn't
- 22:38dissolve. If it's on top of the skin, it
- 22:40dissolves very quickly. If it's inside the top level of
- 22:44the epidermis, it also dissolves quickly.
- 22:47It has to be on a lower level where it's permanent.
- 22:51And I guess maybe I'll just say it now.
- 22:53Is it forever or not forever? So most posts can say the well,
- 22:59Mukhi Yosef says even if it's a very long time, Rashi uses the
- 23:03word forever. So it's a question if you know
- 23:06what does forever mean forever and but for a very long time.
- 23:12I think most post games say something like or many post
- 23:15games say three years is considered a long time.
- 23:19One month is not, but that's to be a long time.
- 23:24Probably 2-3 years I think would be the minimum or the number
- 23:29that most use I think 3. But OK, I don't know.
- 23:34Check it out. OK, so now and, and is it only a
- 23:39letter? We're going to see how this is
- 23:40relevant. So it's a Maclocas if it's a
- 23:44letter or just any mark, there's no, there's no absolute
- 23:48consensus, but it seems to be everyone's.
