Transcript
- 0:00And the entire book talks about Corbin not different things in
- 0:05epidemic Dodge and Michigan in holiness all different areas.
- 0:11All right, that's what talks about.
- 0:12So it seems like a very pretty irrelevant modern day concept
- 0:18whether he's Corbin not all details.
- 0:21So I want to pull out a few points from the open.
- 0:25Shall I go his true Cobain Ola, which is the person because they
- 0:29a full offering in Thai thing goes on the bedroom and his
- 0:31parents and the hatat all different offerings.
- 0:35You have the animals, the flowers, the bird, fine.
- 0:39The question is we're trying to figure out what the relevance of
- 0:41it is, what we can take out of it.
- 0:42And a lot of different points you notice are strange when it
- 0:46comes to a korban. First of all, I'll tell you 21,
- 0:50the name Korban is a strange name.
- 0:53What is a Qurban? How do we translate that?
- 0:55Where you translate qurban as a offering, a sacrifice, right?
- 1:00That's the English qurban. That word does not literally
- 1:03mean that the word qurban means drawing close, cut off.
- 1:09So that's an issue we have to address.
- 1:10Secondly is that when a qurban is brought by success, Is she?
- 1:16It's a fire, a good smell to go and that's the only referred to.
- 1:24It does not say they're a pregnant filling or cubic
- 1:27chirpat or anything else. When you bring a korban, it's a
- 1:30good smell fashion but. Why someone has sentences?
- 1:34Right. What does it even mean?
- 1:35A smell? And why is it specifically
- 1:38applied to a korban? Is it the highest level of any
- 1:40Jew? Was it the best thing a person
- 1:42can be? What's going on?
- 1:43All right, those are two questions we'll get to
- 1:46beforehand. Let's go on order.
- 1:47The Barsha starts up like this Viacra and Moshe.
- 1:51Hashem calls out the Moshe and then I don't speak to speak to
- 1:57him more and more from the spot in the Mishkanen.
- 2:01Mishkan was built in seven shamat done, completed, and now
- 2:05Hashem calls out to Moshe and then it says and speaks to him
- 2:08from that location, from Walmart, no more.
- 2:14What's with calling out and speaking to him?
- 2:18She has spoken with shaman or she has prophecies all the time
- 2:21his whole life with prophecies called called dot and that
- 2:24speaks to him says where is she called Michelle was invited
- 2:28first before I should have spoke to him.
- 2:31He had to be invite. OK, I wasn't in the dodge right
- 2:35here and the placement of strains.
- 2:37This is in my paper without say this we can from the fact that
- 2:41Michelle was invited first. We have a rule called Tamid.
- 2:45Haha. Any Rabbi, any wise person,
- 2:49Shambo dot. Who doesn't have dead edits?
- 2:53Nevella Tovaimeno. Ready for strong words in
- 2:56English. A carcass of a dead carcass of
- 2:59an animal is better off than a Torah person without dead edits.
- 3:04Why? I'll prove it to you.
- 3:06Could Marshall Abeno was the wisest man?
- 3:08Tell him. I'm Marshall Aviya Kochma.
- 3:10He's the wisest of all wisdom. The top of all prophets.
- 3:14The one who took us out of my sign.
- 3:15The one who split the sea. The one who was by my Tantra.
- 3:19Marshall Abeno was the top of it, all right.
- 3:21He was involved in so many miracles, and yet the bazooka
- 3:25opens up with the word Viagra. He had to be invited.
- 3:30And then he went in. What's the Madash Sinas?
- 3:33Which was she telling us? Well, she did not need the if he
- 3:37wanted to like his whole life, he could have just had a
- 3:40prophecy. But, yeah, he waited for him to
- 3:43call him in. As if Who says I deserve?
- 3:46Who says I'm going to witness that prophecy?
- 3:48Who says can be said to me. In fact, maybe you'll be said to
- 3:51somebody else. Moshe acted in the highest level
- 3:55of their aides at that moment. And that's being told us in the
- 3:58beginning of our shop. That's being told us right here.
- 4:01The name by the entire book is built on this introduction.
- 4:06And Moshe was called invited, and he waited for that
- 4:09invitation before Hashem gave him the promise.
- 4:12That's a very class docs. And the question again is why is
- 4:17that concept? We have to be invited at 1st and
- 4:21then witness the prophecy. Why is that applied?
- 4:23Or are we getting involved in the covenant?
- 4:24So three questions about covenant.
- 4:26The name Qurban, it doesn't translate the English word of
- 4:30sacrifice and offering. Qurban is Leos, the term.
- 4:33And when a Qurban is brought, it gives a good smell to Hashem.
- 4:38Why does that apply specifically to a Qurban?
- 4:40Know them. It's not.
- 4:40What does it smell mean? That's all.
- 4:43And thirdly, his idea of Morche displaying great terrorist
- 4:48Tashan waiting for God to invite him before he went in.
- 4:54It's mentioned before the topic of Corbin.
- 4:56Not why I want to start this idea like this.
- 5:00This is again to the dolphin, to the real, real theme of what a
- 5:03Quran is in the following way. This idea of data here to
- 5:07Morche. You know what he's saying is who
- 5:10says I deserve a prophet? Who am I?
- 5:12Who are you? You're the prophet right now,
- 5:15you leading the Jewish people. You just were involved in
- 5:17Matata. You went up and down to the
- 5:18hardest tonight a bunch of times.
- 5:20You did everything. You brought down the second.
- 5:21Who are you? What do you say?
- 5:23And this is my share. Was this playing for us at this
- 5:25moment, right before we delve into the sacrifice topic?
- 5:30He's displaying great level of humility, a great level of
- 5:34humility. Maybe the highest humility he
- 5:36ever had is happening right now, and it's being displayed in
- 5:39Alpaca right now where he doesn't.
- 5:41He acts like he doesn't even know if he's going to get
- 5:42another prophecy. Well, why is he doing that here?
- 5:46So this is the real theme of Corbarno will see constantly.
- 5:48I had it, but I had more shape marrying that with.
- 5:51He had a responsibility. He waited.
- 5:53He knew God was going to give him a prophecy.
- 5:55He was. So he waited.
- 5:56All but he still needed to fulfill his duty.
- 5:58Yes, in fact, someone else did anything.
- 5:59It was yesterday or today. And the answer is greedy people
- 6:02know how to do both. They know how to.
- 6:04They're not going to drop their job or he's not going to drop
- 6:06his rule, but he waits. He made sure to wait for the
- 6:09invitation before he stepped into his role.
- 6:11That was the theme Why specifically by a Qurban?
- 6:14Why by a topical Quran not why didn't the trial tell us this
- 6:17before? God's prophecy regarding taking
- 6:20us out of Messiah, Matan to us with the sea, whatever else.
- 6:23And the theme is this Qurban, the real translation of the word
- 6:28Qurbatas bring close. The idea of this book is Pasha.
- 6:33The whole thing is that Hashem is introducing the Jewish
- 6:37people, a new concept called drawing yourself closer to Him.
- 6:42You have mitzvot that you do, you're fulfilling God's will,
- 6:45you have loving Hashem, you have learning Torah.
- 6:48Those are different concepts. But this idea of drawing
- 6:52yourself close to him, the theme of bringing a man of flesh and
- 6:56blood close to Hashem, that's a newfound theme.
- 6:59It's not normal. It's not part of the regular
- 7:01Torah up until this point. It's a new idea.
- 7:04And because of that, we have these different concepts worded
- 7:07over here. So the Qurban means Karev, you
- 7:10get close to Hashem and we're we'll get to the smell in a
- 7:13second right play out this of all the senses that are close,
- 7:17smell is the one that you feel from the furthest distance.
- 7:23OK, you don't you when you touch, you feel right here.
- 7:26Can't you can't feel eyesight is not defined as a feeling sense.
- 7:30It is a sense. It's not defined as a feeling
- 7:32sort of sense. Hearing hearing also is not
- 7:36seeing and hearing they're not they don't really change how you
- 7:39an emotional change Smell this smell of some sort of like gets
- 7:42inside, gets inside of you, parses yourself.
- 7:44The only other thing that touches you is physical touch.
- 7:46So there's touch or there's smell.
- 7:49And the idea is, is that we want to show you that a Jew became
- 7:53close to Hashem. We want to say after the koban
- 7:55was brought, we want to say he was close to Hashem, so much so
- 7:59that God from, so to speak, a distance because God is
- 8:03otherworldly and man is a flesh and blood God was able to
- 8:06connect to the person and there was a through a distance, there
- 8:10was a connection. So you have the Caro Korban and
- 8:13you have the smell, which is again that connection.
- 8:15And the theme of this book, although it seems like we're
- 8:18dealing with different topics that don't seem relevant.
- 8:21You're going to serve an animal and flower and birds and
- 8:25everything's and there are a lot of points of a lot of it, but
- 8:27the overall theme is that a Jew has become a close to a shop.
- 8:31OK, So what do we need to what do we need to start that off?
- 8:35Why do we need more sharp energy?
- 8:36Memory? So in order for a person to
- 8:39become close to God, they need a few things.
- 8:42First step is humility. The Kamala tells us that if a
- 8:47person is a Valgava, this is the words of the Kamala, Tohek,
- 8:53Raglia and Shahrina. If a person is an arrogant
- 8:57person, he pushes away the feet of the Shahrina.
- 9:01What does that mean? That means if I think I'm a big
- 9:04deal, if I carry myself like a big deal, that there's no room
- 9:09for me and Hashem in the same room, I'm a big deal when I'm
- 9:13saying is Hashem is not here cuz play it out.
- 9:15Arrogance means I'm successful, arrogant mean people talk about
- 9:18me. That means I'm the cause of my
- 9:20success. That means I deserve the
- 9:22recognition and all those things.
- 9:23Sam self known, self-made. That's a constant self-made.
- 9:27Exactly, all those terms that people have to use and these
- 9:30things reflected, I'm a big deal.
- 9:31And that means there's no place for Hashem.
- 9:33Whereas the immunity leaves the room open to you to get close to
- 9:37God because you're allowing God to be in the room.
- 9:39You're allowing God to exist. So Moschito Bandler,
- 9:41specifically over here, need to display that humility before we
- 9:45delve into Coburnati. How far did the humility go?
- 9:50So your kids will know this. And by the shot by Ikra.
- 9:53It's in fire night by Ikra. The first word has a small
- 9:58olive. What's a small olive?
- 10:01Yeah. What's a small olive?
- 10:02You last thing find out maybe too young for now.
- 10:04When you get to what's a small olive?
- 10:07A small olive is it's very astonishing.
- 10:09You look in the Pasukova view, It's cool fish.
- 10:11Daniella says about to him that if you read the word without the
- 10:17olive, it was read the word vicard by Ikarda means not a
- 10:22prepared visit, not a real impressive prophecy, more like a
- 10:27hair care prophecy. Well, like, I don't know why
- 10:29some disappeared to him. Less respect, less connection,
- 10:32less relationship. In fact, says I says who had
- 10:38that term by Ikar? Which prophecy in the world?
- 10:41There was one prophet in the world whose prophecy was as
- 10:44strong and Musharra Banus not a good guy Balaam Hashem gave him
- 10:51the prophecy as strong and Musharraf Enos so that the
- 10:53Guillaume could never say, hey, we never had a shock because we
- 10:56didn't have as good a prophet. So God gave their prophet like
- 10:59Balaam, who is equally clear prophecy in some sense.
- 11:05But the word that we used to the lamb is baikal without the
- 11:08olive, which means God appeared to him no planning, no
- 11:13preparation, no invitation, no respect.
- 11:16I don't know what should have been when he wrote the Torah.
- 11:21He wanted to write it without the olive.
- 11:24He wanted to make it. We read the Pasuka would be
- 11:27Hashem. Heck you repeat to Michelle like
- 11:29he did to belong. Why does he want that?
- 11:31Why do you want to be in the same camp as belong?
- 11:33He wants to be so hum and he wants to make it seem like he
- 11:37doesn't deserve the invitation. He doesn't deserve the
- 11:39one-on-one meeting when Hashem and he wants to diminish the
- 11:42perception to make it seem like he's level was a level of
- 11:46belong. Hashem said no, you need the
- 11:49Vaika. You need people to recognize who
- 11:51you are, or should I say, but I don't want it so they compromise
- 11:54less. A small olive as if you can read
- 11:57it like Belombino is olive there now how impressive was the scene
- 12:03that what should have been was trying to diminish?
- 12:04What level was his seat, his will in the Mishkan, God sends
- 12:09his prophecy down. The pursuit says the prophecy
- 12:12came. May all Moyer from the oil
- 12:14Moyer. Hashem spoke to Moshe.
- 12:17How loud was his voice? How loud was the voice of Hashem
- 12:20in these prophecies? The loudest sound a person can
- 12:23imagine. Unbelievably loud.
- 12:26OK, so I'm assuming everybody heard it.
- 12:31Not a single person besides what should have been or heard the
- 12:33prophecy, even though it was a booming loud sound.
- 12:36It was as if Moshe could see something you can't see, could
- 12:38hear something you can hear. And Moshe's prophecy was so loud
- 12:43even though it was only to him. And that's an unbelievably
- 12:46impressive level. Imagine you're standing right
- 12:48here and someone is talking to you and no one else here because
- 12:51you're on a completely different wavelength.
- 12:52And this is specifically the prophecy of Moshebino.
- 12:55So I want to diminish that one. I want to think.
- 12:57That would be the opposite. It would be you can hear him and
- 13:01he's the only one that could hear it.
- 13:03Meaning why did it have to be loud then?
- 13:06Could have just been light. So the idea of loud, OK, the
- 13:09idea of loud, Fair question. The reason God's prophecy needs
- 13:11to be loud is you always need to see Hashem.
- 13:13I mean, almost. If you could hear nothing that
- 13:14doesn't exist, that would. Be that would be like you can
- 13:16see things that other people can't see the reason.
- 13:19But again, it was loud only to him.
- 13:20So it's kind of the same thing. The reason he needs to be very
- 13:23loud is because same idea by my town today.
- 13:26I was allowed to stand out there and I was on their landing.
- 13:29Every time someone experiences A shem, it needs to be in the
- 13:32fullest physical. God's not physical, but what he
- 13:35puts into this world is physical in the fullest form.
- 13:39So I recognize a shem's power for the prophecy was super loud,
- 13:42yet no one else could hear it. An indication of an unbelievable
- 13:45level of one-on-one with a shem. And that's the prophecy.
- 13:47Moshe wants to diminish one because I need to be humble and
- 13:52specifically before we delve into the topic of Quran, what
- 13:55we're saying because that is a topic of you becoming close to
- 13:57God. It's only possible for starters,
- 14:00if you display your mode and Hashem adds one more detail.
- 14:03Hashem says the word vaikra and Moshe God called out them
- 14:08invitation by the bear Hashem Ilap Moya mohit Lemoore.
- 14:12Hashem speaks to him and says, say something to the Jewish
- 14:16people before you tell them about the Quran.
- 14:18Tell them one thing, says actually, what else do they need
- 14:22to know? Tell them about the governor.
- 14:24I want you to tell them how she says.
- 14:27I want you to tell them that although I'm talking to you, in
- 14:31reality I'm only talking to you because you, Moshe, represent
- 14:37the Jewish people. Tell them reassuring, secure
- 14:42words to let them know that although you're the prophet,
- 14:45you're the man. You're the one I'm talking to
- 14:48understand it's only because you represent on me say oh, and
- 14:52that's where your power comes from.
- 14:53God is on Musheba now as he's displaying an unbelievable level
- 14:57of connection and only level how when Musheba has holding Hashem
- 15:00diminishes in his sentence says tell the Jewish people where
- 15:04you're really holding now is that the reality It's somewhat
- 15:06is, but also Musheba is on a great level.
- 15:09So why does he need to tell Amy sell this so that he can act to
- 15:12them as well with the same unity as acting toward us in humash.
- 15:17So you can tell them, I know I seem like a big deal, but I
- 15:20recognize where it came from and who Hashem is dealing with and
- 15:25what's going on over the year. And that is the opening before
- 15:27the commando get started. Then we have the basuk of the
- 15:30Qomano as follows. Tell the Jewish people
- 15:34commissioned on the first basuk, Adam man kiyaki mikam qurban
- 15:43lashem. When he blinks close, we said
- 15:45it's Qurban from you or qurban Tashan.
- 15:49He brings from an animal, from cattle, from sheep, he brings
- 15:53qurban. So right there, the first second
- 15:55pass Adam man. It's not a common reference to
- 16:02human being. We all use the word ish.
- 16:04O ishah man is a norm. Why do we use the word man?
- 16:09Kia creve me can what he brings from you as if they say he's
- 16:13taking from himself. OSA why are we saying a man
- 16:19brings the Quran from himself? No, it should be like we
- 16:22mentioned last week when a person each a human being
- 16:26delivers a sacrifice. No man Adam like Adam is Sean
- 16:32brings the Quran from himself. What's happening here?
- 16:36What's happening is Quran is a theme of man becoming close to
- 16:40God and we use the term Adam because he wants you to really
- 16:47become close to Hashem through your service.
- 16:49We want to follow him. Clear causes like this, Adam
- 16:52refers to like Adam Manishan. Adam Manishan, the first man in
- 16:57the world had one thing going for him.
- 16:59There was nobody else's exist. When he served Hashem, he really
- 17:05served God. It wasn't because he's copping
- 17:08someone else. It wasn't because of depression,
- 17:10it wasn't because he was told. He did it because he felt like
- 17:13doing so. When we say the word Adam, what
- 17:16we're saying is be like Adam Marishon, be like him.
- 17:20Do it on your own. Can you grieve me, Cam?
- 17:23And therefore, if you do that, you connect Hashem that way.
- 17:26You're going to serve from yourself.
- 17:29They're going to give me him from yourself, Little.
- 17:31You're going to give of yourself.
- 17:32And the core bond little is that I am humble, and therefore I
- 17:36recognize that it's not about me.
- 17:38I'm not arrogant. I don't get confused with who I
- 17:40am. And now it's between me and
- 17:42Hashem, and now I'm able to actually serve Hashem solely for
- 17:46the right reasons. One of the greatest effects that
- 17:49arrogance has is that it really blocks a person's ability to be
- 17:52a good Jew. No one talks about that.
- 17:54They think arrogance is a character issue.
- 17:56Arrogance is a killer to being a solid Jew.
- 17:58And we're saying once you adopt the annuity and you get rid of
- 18:02any shield between you and Hashem, now you can be like a
- 18:05domination, serving Hashem and serving him for the right reason
- 18:09just because you want to get close.
- 18:10And we use the word me can't from you.
- 18:12All right, Father. In Ola, the first kind of Corbin
- 18:26is an Ola. What's an Ola?
- 18:28It literally means it goes up. It means he takes certain
- 18:32animals. Some you slaughter, you divide
- 18:36it off, some part of it. Corbin quantum eats some Corbin.
- 18:41Not the owners who brought the Corbin get to eat and eat
- 18:43themselves. This one.
- 18:45The entire thing is brought on in the back.
- 18:48The olah means that all goes up to Hashem.
- 18:50It's the fullest form of a corbah to go.
- 18:53So did when he was doing it was supposed to be an olah.
- 18:58Even when the angels came, wasn't that it depends.
- 19:00It was also Allah correct? The IO, the R.E.M. wasn't Allah.
- 19:03It's the highest level of a qurban.
- 19:05Now why is olah the highest level of a qurban?
- 19:07What is it coming for? Why did Why did a person bring
- 19:09an olah? Could a token on Tasha token
- 19:12with darshan that makes the highest level?
- 19:13What is he bringing it for? See many kobanot sacrifices were
- 19:18given because of a sin. I did this sin by mistake
- 19:21because that's not my mistake. Who Shabbat, whatever else Ola
- 19:25came not because of a full sin. Why did a person bring in Ola
- 19:32and he had no nothing to deva. Ola was if the guy had a wrong
- 19:38thought, an improper thought, he bought a combat in Allah, no one
- 19:42told him he has to do it. No one's going to enforce him.
- 19:44No one's going to make him do it.
- 19:46Who's going to catch me mapping a wrong thought?
- 19:48Right. What are the other ones for
- 19:49Allah though that's the only one.
- 19:50Allah is always for that. So that's a sin in private.
- 19:53As a sin very much in private, more than private to anyone
- 19:55else, it's a sin in your mind. There's no witnesses, there's no
- 19:58bedding, there's no rabbi. Those are just Masha anyway, so.
- 20:02And then I don't really sense. And if the truth is, how could
- 20:05you control goes into your mind, you can't.
- 20:07Overtime you'll see that you can, but originally you can't.
- 20:10What is the theme of this? Idea see somebody bringing Ola
- 20:12you know it's it's specific things so.
- 20:14Really, it was. It's true.
- 20:18But if you see a guy bringing your hot dogs, you know the guy
- 20:21was, you know there's something wrong with your back.
- 20:24The whole world would bring carbon 1000.
- 20:26When I was able to multipurpose Ola.
- 20:28And so Ola also is the highest level.
- 20:31So a lot of times they were brought along with other carbon.
- 20:34They were like a like a partnership.
- 20:36You bring a Haddad to bring Allah with it.
- 20:38No one thinks it's because of a thought.
- 20:39Just you bring it, it's a greatest gift to God.
- 20:42So what is this theme that the highest level korban cost for a
- 20:46bad thought? So mention is right.
- 20:48A bad thought is not a sin. It's not a good thing.
- 20:50They're not really legitimate full sin.
- 20:54It's you know, we try to avoid it.
- 20:55It's a process. So why, why are you bringing the
- 20:59highest level korban for that? So the theme is like this on a
- 21:03person is of the sound mind and of that level that is willing to
- 21:10bring korban and he's on top of his thoughts.
- 21:13Like you mentioned, it's hard to be controlling your thoughts.
- 21:16If he's on top of his thoughts to that level has been in
- 21:19korban. Because of that, that means he's
- 21:21very close to Hashem. That means that he's on the
- 21:24right frame of. Mind if you're having thoughts,
- 21:26you're usually invested in why those posts are coming, right?
- 21:29It's not just you know, you completely have random thoughts
- 21:31usually along that. So it's almost like prevented
- 21:34it. So like if you you think he
- 21:36recognized it and caught it, then it would stop you from
- 21:39proceed proceeding a. 100% And that's an indication how great
- 21:42level the guy's on. The fact that he's on top of
- 21:44that and he's documenting what he's thinking is it in itself a
- 21:49high level and maybe the Corbin, a lot of that and the idea again
- 21:52is Corbin not the highest level is based on the highest cost
- 21:55intention. That's what we're trying to be.
- 21:57We did that today. We've been Corbans every.
- 22:01Second, praying. We got to praying in a similar
- 22:04thing was that. Specific day they did this song?
- 22:06Or is any anytime, any every day of the week?
- 22:11You just wanted a bargain shoe. You bring us all the time.
- 22:15Now, Shabba, you're allowed to bring all.
- 22:17That no, you don't bring personal cobra than Shabba.
- 22:19You don't bring your own because, because.
- 22:21They do all their. Covenants, I mean, he did a
- 22:23certain one the first half. He made the fire on a Saturday
- 22:27night. The fire was never done and
- 22:28then. It just continuous fire.
- 22:30The fire was on those back the whole time and there's only the
- 22:33fire was only running, only burning things at night.
- 22:36Daytime was with slaughtering and sprinkling the blood,
- 22:38etcetera. And the burning was done at
- 22:40night, always at nights. So now in this korban, each
- 22:44korban there's a concert schools, huh tall it's guys
- 22:48coming since. So that's not the bad thoughts
- 22:49guys, exactly. It's a Marquis.
- 22:51Do this korban, we tell the owner, the guy bringing the
- 22:54sacrifice, the Ola, put your hand on the korban, lean on it.
- 23:01Is there any other they did for sacrifice?
- 23:03What's the thing? What's the idea of putting your
- 23:05hand? Now this Ola, a lot of times
- 23:07it's all put both hands for the Ola.
- 23:09That's on the one hand. Why one hand?
- 23:12The clear guy says, 'cause as tough as we're being on this
- 23:16person, or better yet, as shown as this person's being on
- 23:19himself, that he's recognizing every dealer that he's doing.
- 23:22We are aware that he didn't do something so terrible and
- 23:25therefore put one hand. Don't put two hands as if you're
- 23:28investing your full self in it. You don't deserve that.
- 23:30Just put one almost like top it because you're being on a very
- 23:34high level. You're getting very close to I
- 23:36thought the Kohan the Kohan takes it from but it works like
- 23:40this. You bring your animal in, they
- 23:42slaughter it. You can have yourself slaughter
- 23:45it after the shikita starts, go ahead and dare to catch the
- 23:48blood and he gets started bringing and it brings the
- 23:52Qurban and he gets he starts sprinkling the blood and all
- 23:55these different processes. Now I want to delve into OK, so
- 23:59we told you that humility is a fundamental key for this idea.
- 24:03Show it to you again. The pursuit gives the words are
- 24:05three levels of Quran animal, bird and flower.
- 24:11All right animal, bird and flower.
- 24:14We who brings the flower corbat? Who's the guy would be animal is
- 24:20most expensive, bird is mid level and flower is cheap poor.
- 24:25So the poor guy brings a flower corbat.
- 24:27OK now listen to the pasuk's words so.
- 24:29I know that could be any of them.
- 24:31Or lock it, anything. So you split it how you take the
- 24:33whole flower, meaning you had it with a portion.
- 24:35Of what do they do with the flower?
- 24:37They do it like this. They stick the hand and that's
- 24:38the commute. Southie stick the hand into a
- 24:41pile of flour. The grain does goes like this.
- 24:44He cleans it off. He's just 1/2.
- 24:46Flour. Like making bread flour.
- 24:48Making bread flour legit OK, he sticks it in.
- 24:50Not like a flour, literally flour, beef, grain, right?
- 24:54Sticks his hand and cleans it off.
- 24:56And now they get started. They put it into a pan.
- 24:58They put oil in. Right, but you said that a lot
- 25:01was a full. Portion so there were a lot.
- 25:03I was like, how are these all? Well, so they cook it.
- 25:05They cook the. They put it in a pan, they burn
- 25:07it. That's the Quran.
- 25:08I like your couture idea. They put it in a pan and they
- 25:11burn the whole thing. Now the words that they try uses
- 25:16for a flour qurban, it doesn't say Adam.
- 25:19We told you Adam was a high level and he's like Adam Rishon.
- 25:21You're coming on your own. What term does it open up the
- 25:23topic with this poor man's qurban benefish and his soul,
- 25:28Kita gri kurvan mihal Hashem, when he brings the sacrifice to
- 25:33hash, we call the person a soul. I don't refer to you as a soul,
- 25:37refer to myself as a soul and the person.
- 25:39Why would the Tada use the term a soul?
- 25:42I will try to tell you exactly on the poor person who's
- 25:46obviously struggling and he's bringing you a qurban anyhow and
- 25:50he's figuring out a way to squeeze out a qurban and you
- 25:53might say he's bringing a flower qurban.
- 25:55He's not impressive. Tada is saying the opposite.
- 25:57This guy is struggling and he's giving up himself.
- 26:00For him it's impressive and therefore we use the word na
- 26:03naish nefesh. It's like he's giving his soul.
- 26:07That's how impressive it is. Again, on the theme that a core
- 26:10bond is a form of getting closer and closer to God if you.
- 26:14Can't afford anything? Then what do you do?
- 26:17You have a Hugh grab obligation and it's the same exact thing as
- 26:20a person who can't afford to flee and he rest weights like
- 26:23it's money for. Somebody donated you an animal
- 26:25or flower, you could use that. As someone gave it, do you have
- 26:27to become the owner, acquire and then go forward?
- 26:30Yeah, they have to give it to you Monday.
- 26:34You'll make a kadosh and you take it in specifically for a
- 26:37flower called Nefresh. There's a lot of interesting
- 26:40carbonado. There's one with a pan.
- 26:41There's all different types. As a rule, we're saying Quixote.
- 26:47Quixote. Or you know the next words.
- 26:52I read the Pursuit. Let's see.
- 26:53Let's see if you got it now. It starts here.
- 26:58It's not really fair. Quixote or the whole Devash.
- 27:01You're not allowed in these carbon oats to have oil and
- 27:10honey. The yeast and honey oil.
- 27:12Yes, you can't have yeast and honey.
- 27:15Why can't you have yeast and honey?
- 27:16The carbon tells us. If the carbon would have yeast
- 27:19and honey, it would be the greatest carbon smell ever.
- 27:22So why can't you have it? It's a great carbon.
- 27:25Why would I get? The best smell, anyway.
- 27:27Get the best smell. Two more that's not this.
- 27:31That's how would you want the best to know.
- 27:32Because I think let me give in this call by North ideas the
- 27:35same way you want to give the best.
- 27:37I know, but I'm trying to make up for that.
- 27:40So give the best to give. We give the give the same idea
- 27:43as right the biggest. It's not like you're doing a bad
- 27:46thing to make up to the same. You're doing a very good thing
- 27:48to come with. That's the.
- 27:51Thing but even the couture one of the Powerball smelling.
- 27:55Or skirts. So why would you not use yeast
- 27:58and honey? Yeast and honey coin them with
- 28:02hush are defined as the arrogant ingredients.
- 28:08Honey, I don't know why that's how it's defined.
- 28:10Sweetness, some reason arrogance, but but yeast for
- 28:14sure. We know why because yeast makes
- 28:15a rise hollow rising sketch press off is coming.
- 28:19That's the theme of comets. So we say like this when you
- 28:22bring your corbarman and the man is a poor man and he's giving up
- 28:26his soul and he's doing it to a, to a turn for any sin and he's
- 28:30at a very impressive level. We want the soul, we want the
- 28:34humility, the only way you can get close to God as you be cut
- 28:37out the arrogance. So therefore no use and no
- 28:40honey. It might smell awesome.
- 28:42It might be the greatest cabana. Life does not matter.
- 28:45We don't want the arrogance when it comes to serving us because
- 28:48the biggest separation between me and God is my own ego and my
- 28:53own arrogance. It's a major separation.
- 28:55There's one other separation out there.
- 28:58Let's go to a deeper question now.
- 29:00Why do they try give us this idea of slaughtering and
- 29:04sacrificing these to serve Asia? What's this concept?
- 29:07What's the depth of this concept?
- 29:09Sacrifice slaughter takes all for you, huh?
- 29:12It takes on the other. OK, there's a major argument
- 29:16between the maybe the top tuition here, then I'm bomb and
- 29:21then I'm banned, OK, My mandaris and the humanities.
- 29:26What does it on bomb say? What's it on bomb say?
- 29:29They caught it over here in this Spanish.
- 29:30Give me another theme, another reason why you bringing Quran.
- 29:34He takes it off you. Yeah, and does it isn't, isn't
- 29:36that the Quran become really holy as well at the same time
- 29:39because it's sacrificing on your behalf?
- 29:41Good. So that's the reason that they
- 29:43say we'll get there in a second. That on bomb says I'll tell you
- 29:47why you have Quran. Not shockingly surprisingly, he
- 29:51says, because in the old days people used to serve as Abu da
- 29:56Zara. Animals.
- 29:58People deserve animals as Abu da Zara, you know, a Messiah.
- 30:02The sheep was a big deal in other countries, even today in
- 30:05in India or the Hindus. So because of that, we have to
- 30:11go away and slay that, so to speak, to say whatever they
- 30:16believe in, it's not real. We don't believe in it at all.
- 30:18Not even a drunk. So we got about the.
- 30:20Only alley? You bet it's way too.
- 30:22You bet you're the lambs of the bedpost to show people that
- 30:24you're not. And then in Florida?
- 30:26Bomb brings, mark you exactly that example.
- 30:29The example that Imam has is, is Korban pesa.
- 30:33Why do you bring korban Pesa? There's a whole ceremony.
- 30:35It actually starts tonight. Tonight is what is Kodish.
- 30:39How old is Elohim? We have the mitzvah.
- 30:41The mitzvah is that on this day we go ahead and we get the
- 30:45sheep, tie them to the bedpost, tie them to the bedpost and
- 30:49leave it there, sitting there. And then when it comes closer to
- 30:53Air Pesach, we slaughter that Qurban in Egypt.
- 30:56The first time all the Egyptians are furious.
- 30:59They're soaring our God and they can't do anything about it.
- 31:02That is Qurban Pesa had proving that on bomb's point at the
- 31:05purpose of this bhasha, everything, every detail,
- 31:08whether it be the animal or the bird or the flowers, any form of
- 31:11Qurban, all based on that. That's the Rambab says the
- 31:16Ramban comes back at him and says I hear your idea, but it
- 31:22bothers me a lot. He's come somewhat of a student.
- 31:25He says. It bows me a lot.
- 31:27You're telling me that Hashem made this huge idea of
- 31:32sacrifice. Let's see how far God goes with
- 31:34it. God made a Mishkan the home of
- 31:37Hashem, the Beth Mcdosh home of Hashem.
- 31:41God destroyed another Beth Mcdosh in between the all the
- 31:44little Mishkans. All we're doing nowadays is
- 31:48waiting for the future Beth Mcdosh Mashiach Beth Mcdosh all
- 31:52so that we can slay or the world believes in and by the way, in
- 31:56modern day it's not a thing anymore.
- 31:58So nowadays Quran and everything anymore.
- 32:00This just makes sense and then I'm going to answer that he says
- 32:03by the way, in Noah's time Noah or a Quran, there was no major
- 32:08serving animals at that time. So what what do you think Rambam
- 32:11that the purpose of a Qurban is to slay with the non Jews
- 32:15believe in we it's not a thing. There's no way, I sham.
- 32:19Now all the vegan meat. Right.
- 32:20Can they believe in that? Right, So what am I now?
- 32:24Isn't that like fire? According to this theme and
- 32:28therefore that I'm bond very good there was that I'm Bond
- 32:30changes the purposes. I disagree.
- 32:32I believe the real purpose is even though you have the pessa
- 32:35proof. I believe the real purpose
- 32:37behind our time for Hashanah entire book and this whole theme
- 32:41is that a man, a woman is saying I want to give up myself to God.
- 32:46I sin. I feel bad.
- 32:47I feel like I need to bring myself to hasha and instead of
- 32:50bringing myself, I bring a representative and the animal is
- 32:55my representative. When your blood is sprinkled,
- 32:56it's like as if I'm giving myself and myself come put up.
- 32:59Come put up concept. Exactly.
- 33:01That's the real purpose of a Qurban.
- 33:04A major argument between that I'm bomb and then I'm ban behind
- 33:10the operation. I think if I can say this well,
- 33:14that I'm bomb is kind of right because you have the Pesach
- 33:17proof that I'm ban seems to be right because we know it's hard
- 33:22to imagine that the whole purpose is just to get rid of or
- 33:25think knowledge is believing. So I think that we can say this.
- 33:30They're both right. What does it mean they're both
- 33:31right? The next step to getting close
- 33:34to our shem after this humility is to get rid of the
- 33:38distractions is to get rid of the things other people believe
- 33:41in, which means if I'm focused over there, I can't focus on
- 33:45God. If I'm focused over there, I
- 33:47can't focus on Shem. In fact, yes, I one of its
- 33:51strongest tools is distraction, dizziness, the iPhone stress.
- 33:57Call it the iPhone, call it load more, whatever you want.
- 34:00I told someone the other day, I said, I think it's a clear
- 34:03point. I said, you know, you're on the
- 34:05phone a long time and then you get busy and you feel like, do
- 34:07we all suddenly waste an hour? Tell yourself if the article in
- 34:10the news that you're getting to is by load more than that next
- 34:13article, you've definitely gone too far because any breaking
- 34:17news, you'll find out all right, very well.
- 34:19These are the distractions of our lives.
- 34:21We need some distractions for something that takes us too far.
- 34:23And this separates you and I Shame.
- 34:26So you got the humility down pat.
- 34:28Now you need to get rid of that and the idea of slaughter.
- 34:34What other people believe in is not simply saying worry about
- 34:37what does the opposite. What it's saying is worry about
- 34:40any form of being busy and being a slave to other things and the
- 34:47goal of a Jew and this idea of coming close to Hashem is to get
- 34:51rid of all that and to be fully dedicated to Hashem.
- 34:54If you're going to re record by what you're saying is, and I'm
- 34:57all yours God, I'm willing to give it myself.
- 35:00I'm not going to give my body. I'll give an animal as my
- 35:02replacement. OK, then you're going to come
- 35:03back the next week. Fine, then that's a.
- 35:07Jew. And that's a fight of a Jew.
- 35:08Every one of us. We're never done.
- 35:10So if we're done, we're done. There's a reason why we're not
- 35:12by 1:20, because we're not done. And the up and down is the game.
- 35:17In fact, it's the purpose. And yes, cable brought
- 35:20thousands, thousands of Corvanos all the time.
- 35:23But the reality is every Drew knows if you fight something,
- 35:27the next time we come around to it, you're a little bit more
- 35:30prepared, you're a little bit stronger, you're a little better
- 35:33off, and you're a different zone.
- 35:34So the idea of the what's the purpose of a Corban?
- 35:38It might be to get rid of what they believe in, or it might be
- 35:42to serve a sham, or it might be both because one leaves to the
- 35:45on. So you have the ability behind
- 35:47Corvana so so that. Only existed when the Mushkan
- 35:52was like during the time of Mushkan, right?
- 35:54It only exists during the time of Mushkan and a time.
- 35:57At 2:00, that's it. No other, at least.
- 36:00It's something that we want to have.
- 36:01Now. What do we have today in this
- 36:02form? Go ahead.
- 36:03What's the raft in car? What's that?
- 36:05Old So the idea was saying where is is that Hashem could smell
- 36:08because it's a it's a, it's a kind of sense.
- 36:10That's a fuel sense, right? That can be smelt from a
- 36:13distance. If I'm a Jew and I'm getting
- 36:15close to Hashem without my own arrogance and without my own
- 36:19distraction, not believing in anything else, it's me and God.
- 36:23Then God has a closeness to me and it's a sense of closeness.
- 36:26Smell is something that draws you close and smells an emotion
- 36:30that a feeling that even from a distance makes you feel close.
- 36:33Even though gods are the worldly and we're here, we're close.
- 36:36The whole idea of the Mishkan is to fuse these two worlds, and
- 36:40the Qurban does it to perfection.
- 36:41That is literally our passion as concept.
- 36:44Over and over and over there. This is the theme, all right.
- 36:48There's a couple of side points if we this entire Shah and we're
- 36:51over away, couple of side points.
- 36:54But these actually good smells going up or.
- 36:56Yeah, so most of them were, most of them were good smells.
- 36:59But you imagine you have burn, you might, you know, you think
- 37:01of your neighbor who burns some something on barbecue and it
- 37:04reeks. I know that smell.
- 37:05I don't think it was that's. So good.
- 37:07It's it's OK. Might not have been good, you're
- 37:10right. Might not have been good.
- 37:11But the sham, the goodness of the smell, it was the fact that
- 37:14he's smart, the fact that it's serving A-I.
- 37:18Bet that piece that's not the form that the the pieces of the
- 37:21fat that fell off to the floor. What used to happen to?
- 37:23The anything fell off, you didn't put it back on.
- 37:25No, but I thought it something happened to it when.
- 37:27It fell off into the. I think the ashes.
- 37:30Also got consumed, right? A lot of miracles in the
- 37:32bedroom, Ash. They all got consumed
- 37:35miraculously. Yeah, they were on.
- 37:37What is? I don't know, Ramba, I don't
- 37:39know which one said what. So yeah, feel by the names.
- 37:41What does he think modern day Coburn would be?
- 37:45What do both of them think? Mahdi Coburn, What are Monica
- 37:49praying? Pray and I, yes.
- 37:58So yes, the Gemara says, by the way, whenever you read Coburn,
- 38:01it's as if we study the suja. Coburn it doesn't.
- 38:05You serve it. So learning the topic is 1 and
- 38:07the other one is prayer. Do we learn it?
- 38:09We love. Yeah.
- 38:10Yeah. We serve.
- 38:11Yeah. But I know you do Qatar it if
- 38:12you count it. That's why Qatar is why is Qatar
- 38:15is for being. Counted like.
- 38:17That what bring it's a major major.
- 38:20Why is it for money? Why is people say it's?
- 38:21For I don't know why it's only I think it's all been a car, but
- 38:24we use it for money. It's superior tosses we it's
- 38:27open size and range of Cortana. And the superior community says
- 38:31exactly for the days we're right.
- 38:33We read out of the cough, but the idea is also, it's a major
- 38:36level of connection to action. Tiffila.
- 38:39It is literally this concept. What is prayer?
- 38:42You think about it for a second, You're over here, you're in this
- 38:45world, a regular guy. He functions his regular life.
- 38:48All of a sudden you get into his own.
- 38:50You focus and you're talking one-on-one with God.
- 38:53We deem that one-on-one with God as if you're entering into
- 38:56literally alone. That's how we treat it.
- 38:59You might be part of it Seaboard, because Seaboard
- 39:01helps, but yet the feel out goes in alone.
- 39:04That's a one-on-one conversation.
- 39:05Right. Is it a necessary of the tip of
- 39:07the tip of the? I mean, that is you picturing
- 39:09yourself talking directly. Yeah, that is, that is just
- 39:12John, how are you going? To beat what I think which which
- 39:14is. Impossible.
- 39:15It can for you. Best out.
- 39:17In a sense, it has a certain strength.
- 39:19Coburn has one. Because Coburn has action, he
- 39:22allows only. Worried saying it was even
- 39:23during the core about. No.
- 39:25Maybe at certain times they used to sing certain songs, but not
- 39:28why you're saying it was speech was only speech, Sir.
- 39:31Coburn has speech before. Yeah, but tevila is a direct
- 39:35conversation with God, and that is the closest level of man to
- 39:40get is his Tevila, as the closest you can get to Hashem is
- 39:44your prayer and your constant prayer and your daily prayer.
- 39:47And that's why even though it's very repetitive, it's an
- 39:50unbelievably powerful effect. The same way how many times ago
- 39:53I brought a khatatat? Doesn't matter.
- 39:56It's that action that does the trick.
- 39:57Same thing over here. Well, learning to say it.
- 40:00Learning. Learning is a completely
- 40:02different type of connection. It's a very high level 'cause it
- 40:05makes you went to a different person and that person is God's
- 40:09son, so to speak a more of Hashem's son.
- 40:11A prayer in the conversation itself is the closest degree you
- 40:15can be with Hashem and that's how to feel lies.
- 40:18You had to all the way in and that's really how Pasha is
- 40:20showing us a Jew in this book can recognize that you can
- 40:25become very close, but you know you to feel out really needs.
- 40:28It needs the belief I'm the one that I'm all reliant on God.
- 40:32That's humility and the person goes into civilizes Hashem.
- 40:36I have this deal. I know what to say I know how to
- 40:39respond to the buyer. Do me a favor just just make
- 40:42that lasting work out so haste if he lives OK, but it's not the
- 40:46same as if he says God, I have no clue help me out.
- 40:50I'm a Troy help me out Hashem. I don't have a plan.
- 40:54Please figure out. I'm going to say something.
- 40:56Please give me the words. In fact, we opened up our prayer
- 40:59with these words. Open my mouth.
- 41:01I'm onai safati tuftak Hashem. Open my words.
- 41:06And now my words will speak. Open my mouth.
- 41:09I'm about to talk. Do I say before the next word?
- 41:12My brain is confused now. Before the next word.
- 41:15Do I say open my mouth? No, I think I want to speak.
- 41:17All right. We're saying at that point is I
- 41:20am aware that I have completely 0 without you.
- 41:25And if you have that frame of mind before you pray, you're
- 41:27adopting the Koban theme and that is it's me and God and I
- 41:32need him very badly on you. And secondly, destruction,
- 41:36destruction, relying on other things, believing in other
- 41:40things, believing in other people.
- 41:41To best move when you pray is to tell yourself, I know other
- 41:45people out there, if any. I know I have things structured
- 41:48well financially or in other areas of my children.
- 41:50I know I have and I have my home.
- 41:52I'm aware, I know things can change in an instant up or down.
- 41:57Therefore I have nothing. It's me and God.
- 42:00You go into your to feel out that way.
- 42:02You're adopting the Corvan theme and you have a closeness that
- 42:06the beauty of prayer or closes this, the beauty of prayer and
- 42:09this idea of closeness like he is, is that even if the person
- 42:14is not on that low in general, he's not the best guy.
- 42:18He doesn't everything worked out, but you're having a
- 42:20conversation one-on-one. So I show him always, here's
- 42:23your Tefila. He's either going to use it or
- 42:26use it for something else. But he definitely hears it.
- 42:28Tefila, that's a fact. So the beauty of Tefila is that
- 42:30you're having that conversation pretty much regardless of your
- 42:34background. It helps to have good, good
- 42:37merit, but the conversation is happening anyway anyhow.
- 42:40And that is this. You see the Mishkan, the servers
- 42:43of the cobot was in the bedroom in Dash and the Shahina was
- 42:47right there. The idea of a Quran is I'm
- 42:50serving on chef and I'm coming close.
- 42:52I'm going and traveling to the area.
- 42:53I'm coming close and we said humility and getting rid of
- 42:56other distractions. I'm coming close and the same
- 42:59thing is with Tefila. I'm getting very close.
- 43:02I'm creating that connection. In the same way I shouldn't
- 43:04accepted a Qurban. When a person brought a Qurban,
- 43:08he was clear, he was clean. He was like a brand newborn, a
- 43:12new person every time I bought a Kobani.
- 43:14You're good, you're fresh. That freshness we want to hack
- 43:19every time we talk to God, especially if we mentioned we
- 43:21bring our sins or whatever else, and then we talk to Hashem.
- 43:24That freshness is equally as effective in the modern day as a
- 43:28Cabano's back then. That's the idea, right?
- 43:30Some of this right there.
