Transcript
- 0:01OK, good morning. We're continuing.
- 0:03Sidaka Rishman tet sif valve. All right, so here Shimona
- 0:09Maalot yeh meets Dhaka Zola malamizo.
- 0:13So there's a hierarchy. This is a hierarchy of how to
- 0:17give. It's not who to give, how to
- 0:19give. OK, mala godola.
- 0:22What's the greatest Shay mala MI mana.
- 0:25There's nothing greater. Hamashik Biyad Israel Hamak.
- 0:30When a person helps, raises, supports a Jew who?
- 0:37A fellow Jew who's falling on hard times, Venutelo Matana.
- 0:43So you have a friend, you know he's not doing well financially,
- 0:47and you give him a gift. You don't tell him it's Sedaka.
- 0:51You tell him, I'm giving you a gift.
- 0:53You buy him dinner, you take him out, you send him some food to
- 0:57the house. But in a way that he feels like,
- 1:02oh, he's getting a present all right, Because the whole idea is
- 1:05to make him feel good and not to be embarrassed.
- 1:08Oh, Alva. Or you give him a loan and he
- 1:11says here, I'm just giving you a loan.
- 1:12It's not a problem. You pay me when you when you can
- 1:16or you make up a time, but you're not mockpin on it.
- 1:18You know that you might never see the money again.
- 1:20I mean, that's a lesson in life. When you lend money, you have to
- 1:23know you might never see it again.
- 1:25Oh, oh, say e-mail Shutafut or you, you start a business with
- 1:31him and you make him a partner. Really you're the driving force
- 1:35of the business. I had my father-in-law help.
- 1:37I remember help someone in LA start a a water business.
- 1:41He took out lots of his time from his own time and found him
- 1:45at least a place and set him up and followed him up.
- 1:49Benzion Benetryan oh mansilo malacha or you find him a job
- 1:55and you actually you, you help him figure out how is he going
- 1:58to get a job, a new business, whatever it is today.
- 2:02Le chazek yado in order to strengthen his hand Shiloh
- 2:06itzharek la brio so that he shouldn't need other people's
- 2:10sedaka money. That's not the way to live the
- 2:13well ye shall. Most normal people don't want to
- 2:15live that way. It doesn't feel good and so you
- 2:17shouldn't this person shouldn't have to ask and or beg for
- 2:20money, whether it's from an organization or people the AL
- 2:24Zen Amar. And this is the posit that we
- 2:27just read this past parsha, right the end of Bahar the
- 2:31Zakhtabo. And that's what I was talking
- 2:34about when you see your your friend falling on hard times,
- 2:38the pastor says before he falls all the way before he gets
- 2:42desperate, before payments start going crazy month after month of
- 2:48mortgage and or rent, whatever it is you help him before that
- 2:52happens. That's really the best time when
- 2:54you catch it. Great famous saying is to teach
- 2:57a man to fish is really the best Sedaka you can do.
- 3:00OK, Zine pahote mizel. What's the next level?
- 3:05Hanoten Sidaka la ani viluyedala me 10 viluyeda ani me, me me
- 3:12Kabel. So the greatest level after that
- 3:14is no one. You're giving regular sidaka,
- 3:17but nobody knows who is who's giving, who's receiving.
- 3:22It's completely anonymous. So there's no, there's no Busha
- 3:26whatsoever, or very, very little.
- 3:29The Caro Vozan noting the Koopa Scholzidaka similar to this is
- 3:33when you give to the to the city or some kind of organization or
- 3:39the show that can collect for anime or whatever the the issue
- 3:42is. But the idea is not to give it
- 3:47directly to the face of the anime.
- 3:50The Lohiten, Adama, Koopa, Scholtzbach, Alinkin, Yoda,
- 3:53Shamma Muna, Aliya Neteman, Viodea, Leenhogba, Keshura.
- 3:59You shouldn't just squander your your Sedaka money to any random
- 4:03organization. You should, maybe you should
- 4:07give some. It's hard to know, but you
- 4:09should give them your. You should give all or most of
- 4:14your Sedaka money to somebody that you trust is not wasting.
- 4:18It's very hard to know exactly, but so often organizations, you
- 4:22know, they tell you you know that what their overhead cost is
- 4:26if they're collecting 50% for their pockets or it's actually
- 4:31proper overhead with the whole functioning anyway, you wanted
- 4:34to give it to someone who knows who to give to and doesn't
- 4:37doesn't waste it. It goes towards the cost.
- 4:41Pahote Mizee underneath this right.
- 4:44This is the third level she right.
- 4:46The first one was you, you help them without it being in a way
- 4:50of feeling like sadaqa. The second one is he doesn't
- 4:53know who's he getting it from and he doesn't.
- 4:56The giver doesn't know who he gives to.
- 4:57OK #3 pahoot mizeshiya deya no tin le me no tin.
- 5:02So the giver knows who he's giving, but the Ani's clueless
- 5:08who he's receiving from. So there's less embarrassment
- 5:10with this one than the next case, Kegon gudole hakamim
- 5:15shayohim that sat there. And now it used to be that.
- 5:22I don't know exactly how it was, but it was known that they used
- 5:25to find a way to secretly give sedaka to the aniim.
- 5:28So they knew that they were giving to the aniim, but the
- 5:31aniim didn't know who was giving them.
- 5:35But it's a great Milo. It's a great level in a Namamuni
- 5:40mala Sedaka no Hagim Keshura. Hey, if you don't know who is
- 5:45reliable to give to the anime, so this is a way to do it.
- 5:48You can give it directly, just don't let them know.
- 5:51Ted pahoot maze shadea anime me not tell veloya DEA ad no Taylor
- 5:57me not team. So when the receiver, he knows
- 5:59who's he's getting it from, but he knows that the giver doesn't
- 6:02know who he's giving to. So when he sees him and show the
- 6:05next day, he has not nothing to be embarrassed about.
- 6:08You can look at him straight, OK, one second.
- 6:25So this way the hakami would would throw up behind them.
- 6:28So the hakami wouldn't see who takes it, but the anem would
- 6:32take it and they know who they get it from.
- 6:36Lower than this is Shi Taylor Anibiada Kodem Shinishao.
- 6:41It's goes from hand to hand but it.
- 6:44But before the ani asks for it, you should run over and give it
- 6:48to him. You're Aleph Pahote Mizer 6th
- 6:52level Shi Taylor Karoli Akashishao.
- 6:55OK, you didn't do it before he asked.
- 6:57After the Ani asks directly to to you, you give it to him even
- 7:03after he asks, right? But you do it with a smile.
- 7:08OK, that's important. You'll bet Pahot miza below
- 7:12this. If you don't do it with a proper
- 7:14smile, she Taylor Pahotomo he was ever putting me a foot.
- 7:17You're giving less than you should, but you are doing it
- 7:20with a smile. But you're giving less than you
- 7:23should give to him. Pahot Miza, she Taylor, the ETC.
- 7:27The last level is you give it to him, but not with a big smile,
- 7:321/2 a smile. You look sad, you don't look,
- 7:35you're all into it. You're not all into it and it
- 7:38shows on your face, but you give it to him anyway.
- 7:41A shock points out there's no #9 deal with an angry face 'cause
- 7:45if you do it with an angry face, you if you throw it at him or
- 7:47you just give him like you're really upset that you have to
- 7:49give him Sedaka. So then you lost your reward,
- 7:53right 'cause you're, you violated the law of the lawyer.
- 7:57And that doesn't quite rink. Technically, I believe you gave
- 8:01Sedaka, it does count for a level of Sedaka.
- 8:05But as far as the 8 levels of giving Sedaka, it doesn't rink,
- 8:11am I right? OK, let's go on.
- 8:15We are called panning. Nevertheless, when you give
- 8:19right? We touched upon this yesterday.
- 8:20Lo yitz pere Adam mitzaka. A person should not glorify
- 8:24himself and feel so proud. Should note that he gives we
- 8:29meet Paer and if he does glorify himself, lo da Yoshi ain't on
- 8:33the Kagoskar you didn't you get punished for that?
- 8:42For glorifying yourself and being arrogant to miko Mako
- 8:46Misha makti stavalez daka mutar Allah Allah shahila Lizzy Quran.
- 8:55However, when you do get when a person does set aside to give
- 8:59Sidaka, you give something. He's allowed to put his name on
- 9:03it so you know who it's from and that's good.
- 9:06It's good to know who it's from. You don't have to give a gift to
- 9:11anonymous either. Just OK.
- 9:14Anyways, we let's go on to your Dalit tovitein Prusala Anikodem
- 9:22called fila. It's proper before every fila.
- 9:27Certainly the result points out chakras and minnika.
- 9:30There's an Indian of dinium at night.
- 9:33It's the silhouettes for the give, but it's less less.
- 9:36So it's better to give during the day.
- 9:38According to OP sod anyway. So every time you dive in it,
- 9:43you should give a pruta al sidaka shinimar anibit sedek
- 9:49Ehazepaneka is when you come to a cottage Barthel, right?
- 9:52You wanna what's it called? Put your best foot forward or
- 9:55show you're asking for something.
- 9:57So as chef says, well, did you do anything for my kids?
- 10:00So OK, it's a lot more beneficial or effective to to be
- 10:06a giver in daven then to be stingy in daven.
- 10:10Tadwa gabai sidaka sheshbiyadam OT Sidaka, Gabai Sidaka.
- 10:15He has money, right, to get to give to Sidaka.
- 10:18So one of the greatest Sidakas you can do is yes, see you
- 10:21Abraham, but you should to use that money to marry off.
- 10:27This refers to in particular really yet to mote not only but
- 10:32that's the higher level young girls or girls who are single,
- 10:37who are poor and do not have parents.
- 10:40That's the that's of the among the highest level of giving that
- 10:44Sedaka Shayne Sedaka Gedola Mizzou.
- 10:48There's no greater Sedaka than that.
- 10:50So on this level, that's this is referring to ya tomot.
- 10:54Obviously, if they're not a ya Tom, it's and they need help.
- 10:58It's also also the Araka Shoukhan also lists similar to
- 11:04here, a Abbas Talmud Hakam who's very poor.
- 11:08So he's he's successful in his learning.
- 11:12He's learning all day. He's teaching and and he has
- 11:15he's not making a living. So there it applies as well.
- 11:19The other levels were how to give Sedaka 8 miles on how to
- 11:23give. This is then there's there's
- 11:27hierarchy of what's who to give to, who should get more than
- 11:31others complicated Sugya and it depends a lot on the Mitzios and
- 11:37what's what the need is. I don't think we're going to
- 11:40we're going to get get to 100% Muskana on that one.
- 11:43Clearly a great Hassid even without money to give to help
- 11:49Mushidukhim. You know someone who's looking
- 11:52also it's among Shaheen. It's more of a Hassid godola
- 11:57muzzle. But here our topic is it's
- 12:01sadaqa money. So obviously, just obviously all
- 12:04these things apply. You can often and someone
- 12:06doesn't have money. You can help without money.
- 12:09There's a lot of ways to to help with your time.
- 12:12The Hulay Ted Zine yeh Shamisha Omer.
- 12:16OK, so this is an interesting word at Halakha from from a
- 12:22reshone sort of base and you show me which is the post game
- 12:26the Graa Raqa Shokhan say it's really not true or clear that
- 12:31this is from the Gemara. The proof is strange, but
- 12:35anyways, let's read it inside. Yeshua Misha Omer shmitvas beta
- 12:40Knesset adifa mimisvas sedaka. So the giving money towards a
- 12:47beta Knesset is greater than giving to random anime.
- 12:54OK, so that's that's one hierarchy al mitzvah.
- 12:58But the ground Naraka Sholkhan say really, if it's it's an
- 13:03onion who's hungry and needs money, that comes first.
- 13:07But let's let's keep reading Mitzvah Sedaka al and
- 13:11Narimilmatara al Aholim anim adiv.
- 13:15I mean mitzvahs beta Knesset and even more higher level than
- 13:20hierarchy giving money to a beta Knesset is giving to what's it
- 13:28called to those who are learning Tara and who are holim anime or
- 13:32to poor people who are sorry, poor I'll sick people.
- 13:40If an Ani is is Bari healthy? So that's the first case of
- 13:44mitzvah Sedaka here he's sick and poor.
- 13:48So that's takes first precedence hierarchy.
- 13:52So according to this, the the order basically first is for
- 13:58those who are learning, learning Tara and poor the and for those
- 14:03who are sick and poor, that's the first level.
- 14:07Then comes the bait Knesset. Bait Knesset.
- 14:11The the post can point out that it's referring to, I mean, are
- 14:16Koshoka and Chevy Levy others that this is referring to the
- 14:20basics just so that the bait Knesset can exist.
- 14:23It might mean it might include also expansion, but it's so that
- 14:27it can exist, not on extraneous, you know, overly beautifying or
- 14:32beautifying on what level. Again, you know, how do you how
- 14:35do you weigh it? But at least that's according to
- 14:37the Schwalkanarach. And and then comes the healthy
- 14:44anime, Shulkhan writes. Well, if you have a hungry Ani,
- 14:49any hungry Ani, that for poor, that's for sure going to be #1
- 14:54then comes the Beet Knesset. And first comes the necessities
- 15:00of the Beet Knesset. And then if it's just
- 15:02beautification, so then beautifying a show will come
- 15:08first before luxuries to an onion.
- 15:13Anyway, life's a little complicated.
- 15:15What's you know, what's really needed And you know, do you give
- 15:20100% at each level or do you 75 percent, 25%, Not 100% clear,
- 15:28but but it does seem and where do we see that?
- 15:32Also, basically Chuva's going to talk about it a bit.
- 15:37I think that's going to come later on.
- 15:39But basically probably you should.
- 15:42You would give all the money you have if there's starving a name
- 15:461st and then and then you have to break it up afterwards.
- 15:53OK, let's go on. Haga masha noagen livsk sedaka
- 16:00avoor one second. Yeah.
- 16:06It's called Meytim Bishat as Karatna Shamat Menagwatikin Who
- 16:11and he says people give Sidaka for I guess yurt site or
- 16:17whenever maybe Iskar whenever there's appropriate times,
- 16:20people give Sidaka for those who passed away.
- 16:23So he says it's a good manhug or it's an old manhug.
- 16:26Umahani le nishmu tehem, right? It is good and it helps their
- 16:31neshama because even after a person dies, even after 12
- 16:35months, they still can get an alea, they still can use a
- 16:39kapara, and it's always helpful. Just one other thing to throw
- 16:45into the mix. Saki Machuva secotes from the
- 16:48Hafitzheim basesrel that if you have a city that doesn't have a
- 16:52mikva. So the first mikva at least, at
- 16:55least the first mikva again, how do you define it and how far do
- 16:57they drive? But at least the first mikva for
- 17:00for women to go to, that's going to take precedence over a bait
- 17:04Knesset. Once you have a mikva.
- 17:06So then you know how many shells and all these other things.
- 17:11OK, let's do. Simon.
- 17:12Ray Shannon, how much do you give to each one?
- 17:16Olive comma. Not in the honey de Masaro.
- 17:20A share. Yes, Sarlo, you give whatever he
- 17:23is missing, whatever he needs. Keitzad, if he was starving,
- 17:31hungry, you give him food. He doesn't have clothing.
- 17:35Give him clothes he doesn't have, utensils for his house and
- 17:41a chair, a table. So then clay bite, konalo clay
- 17:46bite you give him utensils, what he needs for the house.
- 17:48Filo E Maya darko lyrico alsus the avid la roots lafana keshaya
- 17:55ashir. What if you have this man who
- 17:58used to be rich? He used to have used to.
- 18:00I don't know if we take it as far as driving a Rolls Royce or
- 18:04Mercedes. You have to buy him that too.
- 18:06I don't know. But the example over here is he
- 18:08used to ride a horse and he used to have an avid run in front of
- 18:11them, one that's expensive to upkeep.
- 18:14And now when he was rich, but then the the and then he became
- 18:19poor. He lost it all Konimos SUS the
- 18:22avid. Now you should go buy him a
- 18:24horse and A and a slave. OK, the crane, the whole.
- 18:28And so too for anyone according to what they need, Right?
- 18:34Very subjective. OK.
- 18:36Nowadays we all deserve Rolls Royce's Harao E la tete lo Pat
- 18:41notes in low. Pat ISA.
- 18:43Notes in low. Whoever is, I don't know, Pat
- 18:46ISA notes in low ISA once. What happened over here?
- 18:53Sorry. Harao E la tete lo Pat notes in
- 18:57low Pat ISA. No.
- 19:00What happened over here? OK, whatever.
- 19:04If he gets part, if he's normally getting a pot, you give
- 19:07him pot, Normally getting isa, you give him isa meta, not a
- 19:12meta. If he needs a meta, give him a
- 19:14meta. Whatever, he's whatever he
- 19:17needs. Haroi Litano, Pat Khamma.
- 19:23So then Khamma, you give it to him.
- 19:25Soning soning lakhilo T.O.K peeve makhilin.
- 19:29You have to feed her through his mouth.
- 19:30Go for it. Eilo isha ubalisa Massimo.
- 19:35He doesn't have a wife. He wants to get married.
- 19:37You get married, the soak in low bite and you rent in the house.
- 19:42Who might that doesn't say buy in the house, but you rent in
- 19:45the house, who might see in Lomita and you buy him a bed or
- 19:50whatever sheets he needs, who create a Shamisha, whatever he
- 19:53needs to use the Akharkov masi Ino isha and then you marry him
- 19:58off, OK. Hagar Venerer, the Kozeh, the
- 20:04Gabite Sidaka or Rabin Biyakhad, this level of funding.
- 20:12So this has to be by the Gabite Sidaka who has big pockets and
- 20:15knows how to spread the spread as well the wealth of the
- 20:19community, right or many people together of all Ena Yakin Mahuya
- 20:24retained. But one individual is an is
- 20:28isn't hired to give that much money.
- 20:31Well, I mean de Masaro ella Modi Otzaro, that was a limit how
- 20:37much one person can afford to to share.
- 20:39So you but then you tell them at least Modi Otzaro the Robin and
- 20:44you, you tell others the inane Robin medsla yitimo yahid IM
- 20:49yado masagid. So at the end of the day though,
- 20:52but if the if there is no one else to chip in and you're the
- 20:55only one there and you can you could afford to help him all the
- 20:59way. So then go for it.
- 21:00You should bet isha shabbatly not say la yif khatulah MI
- 21:05hamishim Zeus. So a woman who comes to get
- 21:09married you should a girl whatever she's single, you
- 21:12should not give her less than Hamishim Zeus.
- 21:18Now metallium zoos was generally the amount considered at the
- 21:21time 1 can live off of. So you think how much you need
- 21:25to live off for the year. I don't know if you include
- 21:28tuition if you have 9 kids or two kids, but how much you need
- 21:31for the year, whatever that is Metallium zoos in those days.
- 21:35And so at least you give this young girl 5050 zoos, not 200.
- 21:44That's the quarter of that three months worth.
- 21:46But the shock points out all these shiurim in this that we're
- 21:50going to read in this Simon doesn't apply nowadays.
- 21:53And it's really based on the times.
- 21:56The EMA should be keys my pharnos in motela fiqvoda.
- 21:59And if you really have ample funds, you should give her even
- 22:01more whatever she needs. Gimel Anya mcazarella patachim a
- 22:05not Ino Mia koopa matana maruba ella matana MU.
- 22:09Edit If it's an Anya who's just going from door to door
- 22:12collective. So then from the koopa the the
- 22:16dabe doesn't give him a, a huge amount.
- 22:18You give him a little bit, you give him something.
- 22:22OK, Dalid, let's go a bit more in pocha tea in the onion.
- 22:27You have an onion travelling from city to city.
- 22:31So he's in your city for the day.
- 22:33How much do you give him? You don't give him less than
- 22:36Mikikar Bepundion. Kikar's basically a loaf of
- 22:39bread. That's enough for two meals for
- 22:42for the whole day. He's here for the day.
- 22:44You give him enough food for the day.
- 22:45Harama Parish and Mishkalpunya nushwana garini si aura.
- 22:49That's how much it weighs. And right in in Kassov, that's
- 22:53so much it's worth, but it that's the that's the value that
- 22:56it has. You're able to buy a loaf of
- 22:58bread for two days and right and to deal with inflation and
- 23:02deflation, whatever. So therefore it's me, arba sein
- 23:05bissella. What are we talking about that
- 23:08you need a key car worth of pundion because it could be
- 23:11where it gives a pundion could be worth a crumb and or it could
- 23:14be worth 10 loaves of bread. It's when for sein of wheat that
- 23:21amount of flour you can buy with a sela that's to keep the the
- 23:26balance the Imlan and if he sleeps over in the town, not
- 23:31Dino matzo Alishan Allah, you give him the beds to sleep on
- 23:36the Cassidy tamburstad and a pillow, the shaman, the kidney,
- 23:39a little oil, a little kidneys or whatever.
- 23:41I don't know if he it's just so he has what to have for the
- 23:44night, the IM Shabbat he was there for the week, not on
- 23:48Shabbos. You give him well here it means
