Transcript
- 0:00372 Well it's using ME3 now. So there are way that the
- 0:08Messiah shame is developing the idea of covert Shabbat, I think
- 0:11is the whole last week and it's telling us that there are levels
- 0:14and a person can be a Hassi, a very dedicated person and it's 5
- 0:19Shabbat. And the way to do so is to give
- 0:21her respect, which we send me and prepare for her to think
- 0:23about her all week. Once your back comes, give it
- 0:26the honor and say, he says. Another example is that's really
- 0:29these are the second line on top of V 73, we have Azola Inyana
- 0:32Shabbat. When it comes to the topic of
- 0:34Shabbat, again, he named Rab Anand Labesh Kunda.
- 0:38It says about a certain rabbi. The rabbi would wear black.
- 0:44We had simple garments before Shabbat of the evil Shabbat
- 0:49Taina lavouche bigot Shahor better Shabbat Kedeshi and
- 0:54nikard. You can imagine he wears simple
- 0:56clothing before Shabbat. Still, when Shabbat comes, he
- 0:59switches into a nice clothing and now it's more noticeable how
- 1:03well he's dressed. So does that mean he put on his
- 1:04swatsuit Pretty much Kadesh and Nicaria take what Shabbat but
- 1:08love show, but got him Naim. That's not what he's supposed to
- 1:11do. He's wearing not such some not
- 1:13impressive clothing before, so that when Shabbat comes and
- 1:15changes to nice, it's like you're going to extreme where
- 1:19San callsable No, but to his emphasis, he's wearing that's
- 1:23called pajamas. So he's wearing sweatpants now
- 1:26beforehand. So you go on the Shabbat and
- 1:27that's called it's just a mindset.
- 1:29Did you do that? No, the massage the Lord.
- 1:31That's not a real thing. I mean, he, this rabbi did it,
- 1:34but the idea is not it's a shalalal about the Kanala
- 1:36Shabbat who Mccalla cover. It's not just enough according
- 1:40to this idea of preparing the Shabbat and being involved in
- 1:43the preparation of that day. A lot of female.
- 1:45I had it. It's also the holding back of
- 1:50the rest of the week. Shimi Kohola threw that E
- 1:53Bahrainio. Tell me it's you to cover.
- 1:56Rather, it's like someone saying on a Wednesday night, should we
- 1:59have roast? And you say, you know, roast.
- 2:02We wait for Shila. Not me to say that.
- 2:05You, you want to say I've only one roast.
- 2:07You decided what should be used for.
- 2:08That's clear. For sure.
- 2:10I say it for Shabbat. And more than that roast is
- 2:13Shabbat, that kind of dessert for Shabbat.
- 2:16Wait. Should we send a dining table?
- 2:18Dining table leave for Shabbat. That's what it's like.
- 2:21No one's going to eat the pajamas on a Friday afternoon so
- 2:25that they can get into a suit on Friday night.
- 2:26I understand that, but they are saying what I just told you.
- 2:29You are saying, well, we don't do the dining table and we have
- 2:32a lot of people over. Should we go with that?
- 2:34You know, everyone's here say Shabbat.
- 2:37Nothing wrong with doing otherwise, but this is just the
- 2:39approach. The idea shows you.
- 2:41How far does Kavoor Shabbat go? A goes far enough to say that
- 2:46they should be a holding back during the rest of the week.
- 2:50So there's some double emphasis on Shabbat.
- 2:53That's this point Kamu Mahala mitzvot, but Henasu Lukwazu da
- 2:58better Shabbat, a similar vein. We know there's a concept not to
- 3:02have a meal, a big meal on Friday afternoon at the Mazza
- 3:06party conversation, I had some people who minimize the party.
- 3:09They meet the schedule at 12 O clock to keep in line with the
- 3:12all right before that's the right thing to do.
- 3:17But the issue is it's when we're having an additional party, we
- 3:20have Shabbat, we'll have more. The issue is, is that by
- 3:24overemphasizing a party on the air, it is you're in a certain
- 3:28sense diminishing the party on the night Shabbat meal that is
- 3:33the issue. Isn't isn't there a thing that
- 3:35you're not supposed to make until you're dying past a
- 3:38certain hour of the day on? Friday, yes, yes, correct.
- 3:40Another meal on Friday afternoon will be 3 hours of Shabbat,
- 3:43right? All right, this is the idea.
- 3:45So this is a double emphasis of the concept of cavot that we
- 3:49need to give to all mitzvot because you want to do much fall
- 3:52in the fall way. You want to do them with all
- 3:53their beauty. And the respect is in Shabbat.
- 3:57The respect is to make it stand out.
- 3:58Stand out in conscious of the week, stand out with all your
- 4:01advices on it, stand out with your effort they put into it and
- 4:04your preparation, your excitement and your dedication.
- 4:06All that builds up Shabbat. Now let's move from the topic of
- 4:11respect of Shabbat to another area that calls for big time
- 4:15respect. And this area is unbelievable
- 4:19how necessary this respect is and also how it's not really
- 4:24properly, in my opinion, understood how to do this
- 4:28properly. And that is Kaboora tura.
- 4:30Kaboora tura, which means giving honor to the tura.
- 4:34So we know we give honor to the tura scroll.
- 4:36We give honor to it whenever Calvary and everyone stands up.
- 4:40We're very careful to watch it. We're very delicate and
- 4:42sensitive to worship to the tura.
- 4:44Let's see exactly how much Cowboy Tura requires and how
- 4:51impactful that respect has on other areas of our life.
- 4:55OK, let's see. Another example when it comes to
- 5:02respecting Hashem was Kabul and the people who learn to.
- 5:08It's clear we have much that says call on anyone who respects
- 5:13the Torah. Kufo Mehbad.
- 5:19If you give honor to this right, you become honored by other
- 5:24people. Interesting point.
- 5:26If you give respect to the somehow, some way, you become a
- 5:30person who is respected by others.
- 5:33Fine, that's a little, you know, little gift that you get a
- 5:37little extra reward. Rabbi Isas that there was a
- 5:40king. There have been many bad Jewish
- 5:42kings. You know that many very evil
- 5:45Jewish kings. One of them was named as Akhav
- 5:48Ahab, bad guy flat out. Yet he married it a long reign.
- 5:55He reigned as king for 22 years. Normally Hashem did not give his
- 6:00evil guys a long time. This guy got a 22 year reign.
- 6:04Why 'cause although he was evil and although he was even
- 6:08involved in Abu Dazarah, things, spreading, serving the orbit,
- 6:13bad Zimmer, terrible, his wife is evil, terrible Jezebel.
- 6:18At the same time, he gave great respect to Torah and the Rabbis,
- 6:25very confused men. One of the big things about the
- 6:28evil kings, I'm on here right now, instead of the one of the
- 6:31big things about the evil kings is that they were very learned
- 6:34men. They were very big, very wise
- 6:38men, but they were completely nuts, completely corrupt,
- 6:42completely crazy in the brain. In this area, specifically, when
- 6:45we came to Abu Dazadab, they were the Max Abu Dazadab,
- 6:50although they might have been the Max.
- 6:53It's a shocking concept. There's hearts and nothing.
- 6:56Doesn't make any sense. The only thing you can know is
- 6:58this power corrupts. That's all you get to know.
- 7:03We know today is a difference. Today they get the power through
- 7:08corruption. In those days it came to power,
- 7:11maybe in a normal way, but when they got there, goodbye.
- 7:14To them on. Totally all.
- 7:15And they were as bad as it gets. The power corrupted them
- 7:18completely, completely change who they were.
- 7:20You'd have, you got us 10 tribes.
- 7:23I did have a race. So you didn't want to lose them.
- 7:25So he just put it out without the example and told them we
- 7:28were not the Democrats. He doesn't.
- 7:32Want to lose the power they fill you?
- 7:37Everyone in this country likes power.
- 7:38What? Don't blame them, they just a
- 7:40little bit more open with the hand.
- 7:42So now, because power corrupts, this man was a bad man and he
- 7:48started up with dozen, did everything, but he gave him
- 7:52great respect to the rabbis and to the Torah at the same time.
- 7:56And because of that, Hashem allowed him to reign 23 years,
- 8:00visit, debate whether he even got to Alama Bao or possible.
- 8:08He's that bad of a man at the same time on this earth he had
- 8:1222 year reign one was 22 years because he gave respect to to
- 8:17her, which is raining up with the half pet letters of 22
- 8:22letters of the olive pet. So because he gave respect to
- 8:26the 22 he married at 22 and see inside how the Vishaki bed
- 8:31that's a stretch. But because he gave respect to
- 8:38the with his reading with the olive Beth, which is made-up of
- 8:4222 letters. He therefore reigned 22 years.
- 8:46Jeanette Marr. Where do we see him giving
- 8:49respect to as follows. There was a man Ben Adad was his
- 8:56name, the king of Adam. He wanted to take over the
- 8:59Jewish people and he was in the process of taking over and he
- 9:02told sending messages to Ahav. He said, listen, I'm taking it
- 9:06all. I'm taking you women, your
- 9:08children, I'm taking you. I'm taking everything, right.
- 9:13Then what happens is I can't allow you to take what you want.
- 9:27What does it mean? We'll see us in a second.
- 9:38I skipped a little bit what happened once it's been I died
- 9:40that wanted this enemy wanted to take over.
- 9:43The Jewish people take the men, the woman, the children and
- 9:45everything. And he wanted to take the
- 9:47precious. The precious meant the scholars
- 9:50and the Jewish king. Ahav, an evil man, said I can't
- 9:53let you have the rabbis, that I can't let you have you take you
- 9:57taking over. I can't let you have the rabbis.
- 9:59That's too precious. And that was an indication that
- 10:02this man had great respect, as crazy as he was, he had the
- 10:08respect and he merited something in return.
- 10:10You see an example, an extreme example of an individual
- 10:13displaying respect to rabbis, The English that you bring in
- 10:19the bottom. Tell my Lord the King everything
- 10:21concerning which you sent word to your servant.
- 10:25I'll do. But the second thing, giving the
- 10:27scrolls. So not just the rabbis, it was a
- 10:29throughout of scrolls as they wanted.
- 10:31I can't give you a throughout of scrolls.
- 10:33I said it was the rabbis. It's the scrolls.
- 10:35Another example is is that when a person travels with a St.
- 10:39Ventura, I have to be very, very careful in how you travel to
- 10:43Saint Ventura. And you can't put it in the bag
- 10:46and carry the bag if they carry it and you'll laugh.
- 10:50When I took a Toda out the deal the first year of the summer
- 10:54show two years ago, I had my son with me and my son carry it on
- 10:57his lap the whole time. I know why I thought it would be
- 11:00doable, but like 1/2 hour into the right, it's pretty good.
- 11:03It was kind of resting on some of his whole flap.
- 11:06He was trying to hold it. But the reality is that's all
- 11:09that's are you carrying or just, you know, Oh really, your baby
- 11:12strap into the back seat. That's what I got to have strap
- 11:14as a back seat. And you make up a sewer, You put
- 11:17something exactly make up a sew. All right, You can't sit.
- 11:20You put something in it. You put something in it to make
- 11:22up a sew. You can't sit on the same bench
- 11:25and sample to that. We know that.
- 11:27These are just some examples of how far we go with respect to,
- 11:30to how we know you go much, much further than that.
- 11:33And all this proves to you that you build up and you put on a
- 11:37pedestal. And the beauty of Twitter, and
- 11:41the same thing is true with Twitter rabbis.
- 11:43You and I know this very well. If you ridicule, ridicule,
- 11:47question, debate, take down the rabbis, then what you have is
- 11:53you may be a very honest man and you might be some of the ones
- 11:56that get to the bottom of the things, but at the same time,
- 11:59it's harder to buy in. We don't like buying in hook
- 12:02line and singing here we find it's very cheap, but we do like
- 12:05to trust them. I mean, if they're on a
- 12:07pedestal, then they who delivered the word of Hashem are
- 12:11their words are more accepted and their words are more
- 12:13accepted that I've become more lean to their words.
- 12:17And if I however, question of Ignaty say and also question
- 12:22they themselves, the rabbis that I have a hard time buying in.
- 12:25If I have a hard time buying in, I have a hard time accepting the
- 12:27word. Hard time accepting the word, I
- 12:30don't get as impacted. So I might be someone who wants
- 12:33to say, listen why? I know the truth.
- 12:35I want to know reality. I don't believe these people to
- 12:37be on this pedestal the whole business.
- 12:39You're right, you might be right.
- 12:41But at the same time you're leaving yourself prone to having
- 12:45a harder time accepting the words of the rabbits and
- 12:48therefore having a harder time being impressed.
- 12:50Unless you're impressed less, you are.
- 12:53They make an impression on you. The lesson make an impression.
- 12:56The less outsiders have the impact of building you up and
- 13:00the more you're reliant on yourself and your own to
- 13:02another. That's great, but it's a way
- 13:04weaker existence and the one that buys in.
- 13:07We have to get to the balance. Hopefully we'll get that in a
- 13:10couple of days. Man, stop the.
