  SPEAKER_00: That's part of being human, is embracing that identity of our imperfection.

  SPEAKER_00: The greatest shame and embarrassment were it would be for a person to say, um, you know, I didn't make any mistakes.
• 0:53
  SPEAKER_00: Because whatever way you look at it, he's acting incorrect.
• 0:55
  SPEAKER_00: Why?
• 0:59
  SPEAKER_00: If he says, I, you know, I didn't actually make any mistakes, he refused to admit that, then he's at he's just foolish and he's like a boar.

  SPEAKER_00: I was unknowing and a boar, like beasts with you.
• 1:29
  SPEAKER_00: On the other hand, if a person actually knows that he made a mistake, but he's just ashamed to admit it, very similar to what we were saying yesterday, he just wants to defend himself.
• 1:40
  SPEAKER_00: Here he's a moisivel zuhlim albosh, then he's adding, he's adding disgrace upon that shameful act of not admitting the truth is clear, the truth is apparent to writes a lachse but that he this person is trying to uphold his mistakes, with visions of vanity, with deception, he doesn't want to uh appear like um like a bad guy when in reality he's making himself like a god, right?
• 2:10
  SPEAKER_00: Paro, he wouldn't go to the bathroom in public, right?
• 2:14
  SPEAKER_00: Because gods don't go to the bathroom and he was supposed to be a god.

• 2:40
  SPEAKER_00: Nikorim divre emas.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_00: People recognize the truth, they're gonna see right through him, see the person's evil ways.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_00: Sadly, this person thinks that other people don't really chap what's going on in Tide's head.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_00: And he thinks that he's able to trick them.
• 3:03
  SPEAKER_00: This is terrible because he thinks he's wiser than everybody else.

  SPEAKER_00: We're taught a lesson here that the modim d'arabanan, the acquiescence of the sages, the fact that they admit when they are wrong, that is shivchayo.
• 3:43
  SPEAKER_00: That is their praise, the fact that they admit that they are wrong.

  SPEAKER_00: Who's greater than Moses?

  SPEAKER_00: Where it says about him that he admitted um his about his mistake, um, right, after the calculation, and he admitted him his mistake, and he was not ashamed.

  SPEAKER_00: Because it's not shameful to admit a mistake, it's shameful to not admit a mistake.
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_00: We find the strong ones, the foundations of the world.
• 4:13
  SPEAKER_00: So you darshim, Barabbin, we're talking about the holy sages of the of the Gemaram.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_00: What would they say?
• 4:19
  SPEAKER_00: If the Ubuntu Simbiodi, if they gave a public speech or something like that, a shir, and they realized they were wrong, they would say, the statement that I made was a mistake.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_00: Look in the Gemar and Shabbat 63b.
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_00: Even if it a per even if a person feels ashamed, to admit his mistakes, mutov shiavosh, but better that he be a little bit humiliated in this world and not be disgraced in the world to come.
• 4:53
  SPEAKER_00: Therefore, let a person be a Yari Shemaim should be God fearing, and he should always acknowledge the truth, because that will be for the glory of Hashem.
• 5:03
  SPEAKER_00: Hashem is the God of truth.
• 5:05
  SPEAKER_00: And if Hashem is the Kal MS, the God of truth, and we have to be an emulator Hashem, then we have to be people of the truth.

  SPEAKER_00: And part of being truthful is admitting that uh we're human.
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_00: You know, even in that word MS, first two letters is aim, a mother.
