  Go ahead, you're live. OK.
• 0:05
  All right, so we are. Good morning.
• 0:07
  We're continuing with Kuf nun Zain.
• 0:11
  Kuf nun Zain. And this is with the Sugiya
• 0:15
  Jaharik Val Yabar I just so we're in the middle of Sif
• 0:20
  olive. We're in the beginning of the
• 0:23
  Rama. We left off with the words.
• 0:29
  Well, I'll, I'll read Hagar from there.
• 0:31
  Just so we follow the emu Khala, hatsala, bakhola, Sherlock,
• 0:35
  Sarikuli, TE Nako, Voloya avor, Voloya Avor.
• 0:40
  That's for lotasa. So you have to lose, be willing
• 0:44
  to give up all your money so that you don't do the avera.
• 0:47
  That's what I love for an assay we learned at Komesh.
• 0:52
  So that's where we left off Viafogov.
• 0:55
  I just want to point out real quick, I don't know if it was
• 0:57
  point. I don't think we pointed it out,
• 0:59
  but just a quick quote. Now the Rambam has this in one
• 1:02
  parrot you study Atara. Hey, so in in the beginning in
• 1:08
  Halacha Aleph, he write, he writes Kolbeit Israel, right.
• 1:13
  This is everybody Mitsubin al Qidosh Hashem.
• 1:16
  We all have this mitzvah. And he quotes that's what's
• 1:21
  governing this, the source of this, these, most of these and
• 1:26
  he continues Umu's hiring Shalola khalola shinamar Velo TE
• 1:31
  khalua shame Kochi. So it turns out that depending
• 1:36
  on how we act in the situation that we're in, we have a chance
• 1:42
  to be kaddish, Kaddish Hashem. And then sometimes that's biyahi
• 1:47
  and sometimes it's berabin. It all depends on the situation.
• 1:52
  Either way, it could still be a Kaddish Hashem and then, but the
• 1:58
  flip side is if we don't fulfill it, we'll end up violating and
• 2:03
  doing a khilosham. Whether it's quiet, whether it's
• 2:08
  piyaki or berabin, or if we're too strict, the Rambam's the
• 2:12
  opinion. If you're too strict, you're
• 2:15
  Miskayev Benavsha and you, you're, I don't want to use the
• 2:21
  word, you're a fool, but unfortunately you gave up your
• 2:24
  life and it's your fault. He writes.
• 2:26
  And then you shouldn't have. So it depends.
• 2:29
  Actually, we learned that the Sholkhanar baskins, there are
• 2:33
  times where it's Rashi. They're allowed to, it's
• 2:37
  optional. The Rambam and others learn it's
• 2:41
  a bahoka Rishonian learn it's aser to be Mahmir.
• 2:45
  The Sholkhanar says you're allowed to the one time that
• 2:47
  everyone that seems to agree and it's it's brought down from the
• 2:51
  run, it's brought down the commissioner, even those who are
• 2:55
  a Mahmir. Well, depends how you want to
• 2:56
  see a Mahmir miko. But even those who say you're
• 2:58
  not allowed to, there is a time when you're allowed to, perhaps
• 3:03
  similar to Mordecai. If you're considered like an
• 3:07
  Adam Goddell, you're a Shamim. Everyone looks up to you and you
• 3:11
  see the, the the people are or it's good there or they're just
• 3:16
  they're not having enough. And you want to make, you know,
• 3:23
  you know, like put down like a line or a state, make a
• 3:26
  statement to change the the flow of the atmosphere of the Jews.
• 3:31
  So then a person is that person is allowed to be a Mahmir.
• 3:37
  So if everyone's allowed to be a Mahmir or just an individual and
• 3:42
  Adam Ghazal once in a while, that's a OK.
• 3:46
  So that was from before now. So let's read inside.
• 3:52
  So sometimes we learn, we know that there's a principle that
• 4:01
  teaching from Khazal that you have to something you have to
• 4:04
  tell people, you have to correct people.
• 4:06
  And if you just let everyone else, you keep quiet and you let
• 4:09
  everyone else continue, then you can also get punished.
• 4:13
  But so that Rama says Mikomako medivarshiish Kashash Sakana.
• 4:20
  But if we're worried about a sakana over here, ain't sorry.
• 4:24
  You don't have to open up your mouth and get yourself in
• 4:26
  trouble or or correct someone. He's he's he's bonus, but ain't
• 4:32
  sorry. You don't have to lose money
• 4:36
  over giving somebody. OK, the Imhu, let's continue
• 4:45
  from the Ikar halacha who we're talking about Yaharik Valyagor,
• 4:49
  the Imhu Biffar has now if you're in public, what does that
• 4:54
  mean? The Hainu biffne asara miseral
• 4:57
  has to be 1010 Jews. And I heard from a Eliaben Haim
• 5:03
  and Rafsour the shame Ramosha. I didn't see it inside, but
• 5:07
  apparently Ramosha said 10 people is even if they are
• 5:13
  mahalo Shabbos, they're movement, they're not they're
• 5:15
  not from at all. They can still be one of these
• 5:18
  10. They're still Jewish people and
• 5:20
  they still can be counted for one of the 10 to make what
• 5:24
  you're doing. The far as the Hein of the has
• 5:27
  to be Jews. If the goy is trying to stop you
• 5:41
  from being Jewish or stop you from doing mitzvahs, he's
• 5:45
  telling you not to do it and commanding you not to do it.
• 5:48
  Or did you do something because it's a mitzvah and he wants to
• 5:52
  stop you for that. So then then if it's so, then
• 6:01
  yeah, we have to one has to be a hurry, but yeah, but wants to be
• 6:04
  giving up his life is it's very far has yeah, and not if it's
• 6:11
  Lahanasa, if it's for his own pleasure.
• 6:15
  So then even Biafra, even Berabim, you Yagor you do the
• 6:20
  Avera because he's he's telling you to do it Lahanasa for his
• 6:27
  own pleasure. But if it's in this case, he
• 6:30
  tells you to do it viru al das. And it's bit far as yeah.
• 6:36
  So then you have to give up your life for even afilo Ala rakhta
• 6:42
  de Masana, even if it's based on a goyush minhag of how to tie
• 6:48
  his shoelace, it's. And so then even for a minute of
• 6:53
  how they that for even for that if his purpose is to la viru al
• 6:57
  Das. So then and if it's so, then one
• 7:01
  is supposed to be OK. But if he's only doing LAN.
• 7:11
  So we just said OK, then you, you do the Avira because right,
• 7:17
  it's you want to live and not be Misaiad Banasha, the Imusha.
• 7:24
  But what if it's a time of Qzirah Shmat al Yusra al Levad?
• 7:29
  So this is apparent must even according to the Sholkhanarath
• 7:33
  as well as the Rama that Shah brings the Bisheem and others,
• 7:38
  that it's also in the the left Commission on the Rambam that
• 7:44
  it's only that Shmat, the halakhas of Shmat.
• 7:49
  It's when there's a particular power force that's in power.
• 7:57
  Generally we're assuming it's a it's a a government with an army
• 8:01
  that they can enforce it and it can even be over a small city.
• 8:05
  So I heard from sour that they are Sour by the way, is a post
• 8:11
  sake in Los Angeles anyway. So that creates a time of
• 8:16
  schmat, but only if schmat by definition is only if it's
• 8:21
  against the Jewish people, not all the people like some of the
• 8:24
  posts can point out by Akash Perosh and Esther.
• 8:27
  It wasn't Shmat because he was like that for the whole world
• 8:31
  and had nothing to do with the only time we say Shmat.
• 8:34
  It's only if it's Dafa Ankal Israel and it's I'll just point
• 8:47
  out a question mark that I discussed that of sour.
• 8:51
  He thinks that by the time of the Holocaust where anytime they
• 8:56
  just want to kill you and it's not in order to change our
• 9:01
  religion. So that's why he believes that's
• 9:03
  not Shmat Shmat again. But he believes Shmat is only
• 9:08
  when they want to try and convert us and they make their
• 9:12
  decrees to kill us if we don't convert.
• 9:14
  But if it's only they just want to kill us because they just
• 9:17
  want to persecute us and kill us like in the Holocaust that has
• 9:21
  the dinner of all the other Holocaust we learned until now,
• 9:24
  but not the same. OK, so matters basically the
• 9:29
  main offcoming that would be would probably be Bitsina versus
• 9:33
  Bifarhesa. OK, so let's keep reading inside
• 9:37
  being shot at Zerah filo araka de Masana Ritsuwa Seminole.
• 9:41
  So again, it's the custom of the shoelaces.
• 9:47
  Then we still see Yahare, but al yaba.
• 9:51
  OK, Aga without claim rotima viro Ben mitzvah lotas.
• 9:56
  And when do we say this? If it's a once they want you to
• 10:00
  do a mitzvah of a lotasse. Oh well, in Gaza shimad Shiloh
• 10:04
  ikaya mitzvahed. So then you only have to give up
• 10:14
  your life for a lotasse. You don't have to give up your
• 10:18
  life for an assay. Just don't do the mitzvah and
• 10:22
  don't die. But if it's an appropriate time
• 10:31
  and you want to make a statement and you want to, you're allowed
• 10:36
  to to do the mitzvah and then get killed for it.
• 10:42
  OK, now for the big three Afilo Bitsina Vishalo Bishat Zera the
• 10:52
  the Filo E Nagoya Mahavin Ella Lanoso Yahari.
• 10:56
  So this is the famous Yahari Yahbor.
• 10:59
  What these three are more Kamur where it's even Bitsina, there's
• 11:05
  some private and it's not even if it's not Shmat and even if
• 11:09
  he's Mahavin Lanasso. So then for these three, we
• 11:13
  still see Yahari Valya without the Kishore, only Molasset my
• 11:19
  seat. The only time we say Yahari
• 11:22
  about Yavar is if he tells you to do a mice and you're going to
• 11:26
  have to go do the mice like he tells a man go be with a woman.
• 11:33
  Oh, she you're hiring. Oh, oh, you have to face the
• 11:35
  death penalty. So then you face the death
• 11:39
  penalty. But but if all they tell a woman
• 11:44
  to do is just lie down and then the man does everything but she,
• 11:48
  we're talking about she, but she's being essentially raped
• 11:53
  and she's someone's being honest with her so she doesn't have to
• 11:58
  give up, give up her life, 'cause it's Shay Valtasa Karka.
• 12:02
  Hold on, She's just lying there and he's doing the whole thing.
• 12:05
  Oh, Shirazim Lashniko, a Latina Klahargo.
• 12:09
  Or they want to throw him on top of a baby to kill the baby.
• 12:12
  So they're pushing your body there, whereas the shot adds,
• 12:16
  they push your head down to bow down.
• 12:19
  So in those cases they're doing the MISA for you.
• 12:22
  So then you don't have to give up your life.
• 12:24
  Or he already has an erection and they just want to push him
• 12:30
  into the woman. Ain't sorry.
• 12:37
  You don't have to die for this. Now, it doesn't only mean the
• 12:49
  big three Mamish in the in the sense that we're used to, but it
• 12:54
  can mean any love that's underneath those 3, any love
• 12:58
  that's underneath those three. Also then even if it's the
• 13:05
  punishment, it's not the Misa, but it's a love.
• 13:07
  So then also, if it's in the category of these three, so then
• 13:11
  one also the Isa one to give up if he's not active.
• 13:22
  Is that like a Carca Ola? So if he's not active, it's
• 13:26
  that's the same. Sorry, I love the but for the
• 13:38
  love of so when if that comes up.
• 13:48
  I don't know the the shock gives an example like he forces you to
• 13:52
  lend something that's going to be used for avatizar.
• 13:56
  So whenever it comes, whenever it comes up to leaf naivre,
• 13:59
  that's certainly that's going to be go ahead, do it and do not
• 14:02
  die for that. The Goya ABBA al baat Israel Eno
• 14:06
  bakal gilerayos and if it's a non Jew, that comes on a Jew and
• 14:10
  a Jewish girl, ladies. So that's not called guloi
• 14:14
  arais. Now going Shyam release route to
• 14:19
  new Lano, a little bit of a different sugya.
• 14:21
  I think this is something I want to point out.
• 14:30
  OK, that comes later. Let me just double check that
• 14:34
  we're pretty much done with this part.
• 14:42
  Yeah, OK, fine. I don't know if we're going to
• 14:54
  think we're going, Yeah, we're going to see that later on.
• 14:59
  OK, sorry. Let's go on.
• 15:02
  If the going come to a group of Jews and they say give us one of
• 15:05
  you and we're going to kill him. So you're not allowed to give up
• 15:09
  any one of the Jews. You can't give up one of you
• 15:15
  can't pick one out. Ella and Cain you have to do
• 15:18
  unless the the non Jew who wants to kill you, you picked out the
• 15:25
  name of one of the Jews because you already picked them out.
• 15:28
  So then you're allowed to. And he says give me this person
• 15:34
  and he names this person. So then one's allowed to give
• 15:39
  him up 'cause otherwise he's going to kill everybody.
• 15:41
  The aish omrim that filled with hi govna in Lamassra, Ellie in
• 15:45
  Cain khaya misa ke sheva bin. Now there's another opinion.
• 15:51
  Who says no, you can't. This is the you could that one
• 15:57
  should be Mahmir not even to give up even if he singles out
• 16:01
  someone by name and still not to give him up even if it means he
• 16:06
  might kill everybody except the only time according to the
• 16:10
  existing the only time you can give give up a person if he if
• 16:15
  that if the non Jew who wants to kill him names the person and
• 16:19
  that person who he names and you're going to hand them over
• 16:23
  to get killed is anyway Hayeb Mesa.
• 16:26
  Sheldon Berry was the one who was more of a Malthus pretty
• 16:29
  much tried to take back the the Malthus from David Amela and
• 16:34
  give it back to Shevid Binyamin anyway.
• 16:37
  So he was hired Mesa for that. OK, the thing Nashim Shamrulahan
• 16:43
  going to Newland camp, similar story.
• 16:46
  They go and they say give us one of the women, the Nita Malutasi.
• 16:53
  The he the Nanjukan rapper is you don't give up anybody, even
• 17:04
  if it means that he's going to go now and be Matami to all the
• 17:09
  all the women. We don't we don't give up
• 17:12
  anybody. So now let's say a person made a
• 17:25
  mistake or he wasn't strong enough and he was supposed to
• 17:29
  die, but he didn't and he did something honest.
• 17:32
  Even if he was Mahalo Shim Shamay and he but he's still but
• 17:36
  he was still clearly an honest. It wasn't on purpose.
• 17:39
  So therefore he's putter. He gets he doesn't get Malkus
• 17:43
  doesn't get hired Misa, even though if we had a bass then
• 17:46
  he's 100%. But now everything now this
• 17:52
  where we say he's putter as if he's basically innocent.
• 17:56
  He didn't know what was happening and the Jew came and
• 18:01
  and or he's he lives in this place and he can't leave.
• 18:04
  He's stuck in the city. He's stuck in this country and
• 18:06
  this happened to him. He had no choice, but he knew
• 18:09
  Khalif Rawat. But if he can move to another
• 18:11
  country where you don't have this persecution and these
• 18:14
  problems where you have to be doing a Vera, the Ana O
• 18:18
  Sarayuka, Caleb Shavalkyo. It's like a dog who eats up its
• 18:24
  own vomit. And so there, in other words,
• 18:27
  you stay in the same place and you will you know this is going
• 18:29
  to happen and you allow it to happen.
• 18:31
  So then Vineetra over the Mesi. So then he's considered as if
• 18:35
  he's detested mesi. Fine, let's do that.
• 18:41
  I don't know what our times, Kirshen, you'll let us know our
• 18:45
  timing. I don't know where we are 18
• 18:47
  minutes in so far. What?
• 18:50
  We are 18 minutes in so far. OK, fine.
• 18:55
  That'll help me out. OK, let's do.
• 18:57
  Let's start with halacha Bet safe bet.
• 19:00
  Asura Adam Omar shugoi kadeh shalu yaargu.
• 19:04
  A person is not allowed to lie to a non Jew and tell him that
• 19:09
  he's tell him he's a non Jew so that he doesn't get killed in
• 19:16
  kadeh shilay kuru shuhudi mishana malbusha bishal taghzera
• 19:21
  kaitlin shino Omer shugoi. So you just now you are allowed
• 19:27
  to be ambiguous. You're allowed to wear basically
• 19:31
  non Jewish clothing so that you trick them, but you can't say
• 19:36
  it. You can't spell it out, but you
• 19:38
  could you could. You can wear different clothing
• 19:41
  so that they don't realize that you're so that they don't
• 19:44
  realize that you're Jewish. Since he doesn't say, doesn't
• 19:47
  say, I'm just going to share with you real quick for a
• 19:50
  minute. So I have a friend, Aaron
• 19:54
  Ovadia, His friend, his father-in-law is David Rapp.
• 19:58
  He was on, he was in 1970. He was one of the plane.
• 20:04
  He was on one of the planes that was hijacked.
• 20:06
  He was on the plane he was 17 years old with his mother and
• 20:08
  four siblings. This was the TWA plane 741 and
• 20:13
  it was going from Tel Aviv to New York via Frankfurt, and on
• 20:17
  the way it was hijacked. And they brought it by the
• 20:20
  Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, PFLP, and they
• 20:27
  took the plane and they landed it in Jordan.
• 20:30
  So he has a whole story, but I'm not going to tell over the whole
• 20:35
  story. But he wasn't.
• 20:37
  And he was on the same plane with Rob Hutner.
• 20:40
  So that's a little more famous. And why is in particular, one
• 20:45
  thing in particular strike me is because when they were on the
• 20:48
  plane, so the Arabs, they made everybody on the plane write
• 20:52
  down their religion. And so the question is, are you
• 20:56
  allowed to lie or not? So he wrote down that he was
• 21:01
  Jewish. And so he was basically most of
• 21:04
  the people on the plane at some point early on got a pass and
• 21:09
  they were free, I think. But there was a smaller portion
• 21:14
  of Jews who admitted that they were Jewish, so I didn't discuss
• 21:20
  it with anyone in particular. So I'm not 100% positive, but I
• 21:24
  believe writing down the name is probably the same as saying but
• 21:28
  I'll leave it as it's. But because you don't leave any
• 21:33
  room for ambiguity, you're you're basically stating it out
• 21:37
  anyway. Haggah, let's continue that feel
• 21:41
  lovish kill iron and even if to put on kill iron, you're allowed
• 21:46
  to in order to fool them and to cover up to make you look like
• 21:50
  you're not Jewish. You're not allowed to say the
• 21:54
  words that you're that you're a good.
• 21:57
  You can speak in a way that can go either way.
• 22:03
  It's a little bit ambiguous. Will think that you think you're
• 22:09
  going, will think that you're saying that you're a goy into
• 22:15
  something else. You can fool them, that's fine.
• 22:23
  That's fine here. I'm just going to share one
• 22:28
  thing also, I heard from of Mordechai Ness who's in the
• 22:33
  Kabura. So he, he pointed out to me he
• 22:36
  learned in the in a cola by Rabbi Goldstein, 2 of you
• 22:44
  Goldstein, he had a cola and he used to teach and he had a whole
• 22:49
  cycle he would do or a Haim your idea, you know the popular
• 22:53
  stuff. There's so for Shabbos, there's
• 22:56
  Basar Bakhalov, probably they did a Vela sunchita.
• 23:01
  Anyway, what he pointed out was normally you go to any, any
• 23:04
  cola, pretty much any cola in the world.
• 23:08
  They have their cycle of what they learn, especially like for
• 23:11
  Smith, but he in his cola, which I haven't, I have not heard
• 23:15
  before, a Goldstein part of his cycle was this Simon and Yaharik
• 23:21
  Balyagwar. And I was just, you know, lived
• 23:23
  through the Holocaust and you saw that it's a little it could
• 23:27
  be relevant. So anyways, that was one of the
• 23:30
  something interesting. OK, let's continue.
• 23:34
  Now. If there's a person, it just
• 23:40
  means if a person has an extreme desire for an to be with an
• 23:44
  ancient ish and he can't control himself.
• 23:50
  So that so there's the whole and Gemara there.
• 23:53
  It's Sanhedrin, so I in here, I believe so there.
• 23:58
  The oldest question is if there's any way to allow him to
• 24:02
  be with the woman or to even look at the woman, you know,
• 24:07
  without her clothing. And the Gemara says, no, it's
• 24:09
  Esther. We can't make women even if it
• 24:14
  was, even if it was a pneuya, because we're not making women
• 24:20
  fruitsus. That's not what we're going to
• 24:23
  do to Banosi's thrill. So anyway, so there there was
• 24:26
  there was no head there and even and if he needed and if the that
• 24:29
  that would be his only rafua. So we don't we don't let
• 24:34
  interesting. By the way, I'll just refer you
• 24:38
  to an interesting Tuban Evaneser.
• 24:40
  Moshe Feinstein asks if there's Yahari Valva or if a person
• 24:43
  needs Rafua to go to A to a mixed to a mixed beach.
• 24:48
  So there if I read it correctly, it sounds like he's saying the
• 24:52
  only time it's it's 100% user. This is could be loves of
• 24:58
  giliarayas The only time we say it's user is if it's to stare at
• 25:03
  the airboat and to stare at a woman for the sake of which is
• 25:09
  the love. But if it's just to go to the
• 25:11
  beach and a person is not having kavana to to be over a love.
• 25:18
  So then it's he says it's not Yaharegh Valiaghar anyway.
• 25:24
  So in this case a person wants to be with an ancient ish, his
• 25:32
  wife is allowed to go pretend that she's that ancient ish in
• 25:36
  order to to to make him calm down.
• 25:41
  And then it's it's mutter, even though he thinks he's doing the
• 25:44
  Avera and he has to do Chuba for it, as the taz points out, but
• 25:48
  it's much of for her to do Nicole Zeh.
• 25:52
  Hello, Shari raku, Malcolm Sakana and all these things that
• 25:54
  we said here about changing your clothing to fool the goyim.
• 25:58
  That's the Malcolm Sakana about Shalom Sakana.
• 26:07
  If it's to save yourself from paying taxes and from financial
• 26:12
  gain. So then it's not allowed.
• 26:15
  And the shot just points out though, but for a talmid hakam
• 26:18
  for when it comes to taxes, we do allow you because really the
• 26:22
  golem are stealing with their taxes from you.
• 26:25
  And for a Tom, we let you and we know we know it's not going to
• 26:28
  lead you to be too much Hefter and more Zozo later on with
• 26:33
  these matters. All right, stop or one more
• 26:38
  stop. Let's just read Gilmore since I
• 26:40
  can't hear anybody. A person needs to save himself
• 26:48
  from getting killed. He's allowed to hide inside a
• 26:52
  church or the base of Arzara. That's not a problem.
• 26:56
  They shot the schmad Asser. But the Rama says but if it's a
• 26:59
  time of schmad, so to hide in a base of Arzara, then it's not
• 27:03
  allowed. OK, stop here.
• 27:07
  Thank you. Thank you.
