  vaidarba Hashema Musheba, Aaron vayat salveim albanet yitzro
• 0:07
  command them regarding the children of Israel.
• 0:09
  Hello Aaron, where have you been up to now?
• 0:11
  Up to now Hashema spoken only to Moshe Rabenu.
• 0:15
  So what is Aaron doing in our story all of a sudden?
• 0:19
  So we have to go to another passuk first.
• 0:21
  The verse in the book of Proverbs says Bachal eight serve
• 0:23
  yen muttar udvas fatimahsar. In all toil there will be gain,
• 0:31
  but talk of the lips brings only loss according to the simple
• 0:36
  reading of this pasuk. The pasuk contrasts physical
• 0:38
  action activity with speech. Physical activity brings pain,
• 0:42
  and the latter only only lose something.
• 0:45
  But this isn't logical, said the commentary commentators.
• 0:48
  For there are many forms of toil that are not profitable, and
• 0:51
  many forms of speech that are beneficial.
• 0:53
  The Madrid therefore interprets the pasuk in a very different
• 0:56
  way. Bahalad varim shahdam, no
• 0:59
  server, no tandem. All things that people is
• 1:01
  engaged are engaged in deray Torah.
• 1:04
  If they're words of Torah will not tell Alayim Sakha he gets a
• 1:07
  reward. Yah all up deray batala.
• 1:10
  What about things that are not Torah mundane matters?
• 1:15
  Talmud Lama or the Vaasra time, Akhla mahsur?
• 1:18
  The talk of the lips brings only loss.
• 1:23
  So the Midrash is saying. We're not contrasting action
• 1:26
  with words, but the pursuit of Torah knowledge with the other,
• 1:30
  with other pursuits, which of course called the Vaasra time.
• 1:36
  The Midrash says by dealing with extra words could be could
• 1:40
  actually become detrimental. A time would say you find Lahaya
• 1:43
  yourself Rauli in October Vitahosurium Joseph should have
• 1:46
  been in prison for 10 years. And what did he do for the sin
• 1:49
  of bringing evil reports against his ten brothers for Aliadesha
• 1:54
  and Malasamashkin because he spoke to the to the cupbearer
• 1:57
  and said don't forget me, please.
• 1:59
  He had an extra 2 years. So mundane speech brought him
• 2:03
  trouble. But here I'm not, said Moshe.
• 2:06
  We find similar Mosha, but Hila royalia thought colony Simalia
• 2:11
  all over. The miracle should have been
• 2:12
  performed just by Moshera Beno. But because he said no, no, you
• 2:17
  God don't send me. Send someone better than me,
• 2:19
  someone who, you, anyone else, just me.
• 2:21
  Therefore that Hashem said to him, your brother, the Levite,
• 2:26
  he will speak for you. And so here the children of
• 2:29
  Israel will have not listened to me.
• 2:33
  So how will the King listen to me?
• 2:38
  Only Moshe should have received Hashem's communication.
• 2:41
  Because of this statement. Hashem spoke to Moshe and Aaron
• 2:47
  together. It brought him a diminished role
• 2:51
  in a certain this and in this moment in time as a punishment
• 2:54
  for blabbering and saying the wrong thing.
• 2:59
  So what was that loss? So we know that motion aren't on
• 3:01
  different levels of prophecy. If you have to communicate to
• 3:04
  Moshe and to Aaron, then the experience of property that
• 3:06
  Moshe Albania received was going to be radically different than
• 3:09
  that of his brother. And you can't, can't compare the
• 3:12
  two. And therefore Moshe's
• 3:14
  inappropriate words proved detrimental.
• 3:17
  What a Govaldict lesson. How fantastic is that?
• 3:20
  My friends? Have a wonderful day and take
• 3:23
  care. Thank you for learning the
• 3:24
  Midrash along with me this week. Take care.
