Transcript
- 0:00There's Alfred Ashah this week and it comes in the heels of
- 0:04Tirumah. It's right at the Tirumah and
- 0:07the way it goes like this. Tirumah was talking about the
- 0:10building of the Mishran and all the Killim, all the vessels
- 0:12involved. And Tetabah is about Ashah
- 0:16talking about the Qurani, the Qurani Gadul, the Qurani and all
- 0:20the garments that are involved. The big difference is that the
- 0:23Qurani, their entire essence, is dependent on their garments.
- 0:27Everything is about their garments.
- 0:28So regular Quran 4 a Cohen got all eight.
- 0:31In fact, Cohen's key to shave basically comes in when he puts
- 0:36on those garments. He puts on the garments to
- 0:37become special. Without the garments, it's kind
- 0:40of like a regular diet in a sense.
- 0:41And he can't serve. It's possible then to serve
- 0:44without those big at him talking.
- 0:51Excuse me to Michelle Beno and to now bring close to you your
- 0:56brother Aron vet Bonavito and his sons.
- 0:59We talked from within the Jewish people.
- 1:02They had no lead to become quanine for me, Aaron Nadab of
- 1:06you, El Azarvie Tamar Ben, Aaron, Aaron and his four sons.
- 1:10Bring them in and you're going to make special garments for
- 1:16your brother Aaron. Those are the 2 words that we
- 1:20use to describe the big day Quanado and the Quanine Cavo de
- 1:24Tafari. One means honor, 1 means glory.
- 1:28That's the description of the garments of Aquan.
- 1:30And then Hashem continues and says and you more should have
- 1:35been out. Speak to all the people, wise
- 1:37hearted Hashemileti ruachma who are filled with wisdom Basu big
- 1:42day Aaron and they're going to create a manufacturer and
- 1:45develop Aaron's clothing, the hell on the lead to serve me.
- 1:49And then Hashem describes all of the Gadim, the four, the 8, and
- 1:54he goes to 1 by 1. God goes through all the God
- 1:57deemed the the garments that the Quran's going to wear and the
- 2:00stones that are in the Quran God, those garments and all that
- 2:03is described in Alpha Shah. There are two things that are
- 2:06interesting about Alpha Shah that are very significant.
- 2:10First of all, the Pasuk says just beforehand, Pasuk says
- 2:13Arora is going to carry on these garments is in carry stones and
- 2:17in these stones that you represent in Shamot, they sell
- 2:20exactly the names of the tribes and it says he carry them.
- 2:24One Basukes is in he carry them on his heart.
- 2:26Another one says he's going to carry them on his shoulders.
- 2:29Right. She writes let me read the
- 2:31Basuke first. Benasa, Aron, Echima, Tom, let
- 2:34me out a shin. Aron is going to carry our names
- 2:38in front of our shame. He's a servant in front of our
- 2:39shin. I'll stay Kateva, Kateva on his
- 2:44two shoulders. Lizzie Karon as he remembers
- 2:47what is the idea of our own carrying in his gauntlets, which
- 2:50are holy garments which make his service possible, with the idea
- 2:53of carrying the stones that represent us on his heart and on
- 2:57his shoulders. The overall theme is that a
- 3:00leader like an Ardon, like a Kohenga dog, is carrying the
- 3:05people on his shoulders. His heart means on his heart
- 3:09that they that he cares about, he's dedicated to.
- 3:11That means more set nebrish for them.
- 3:13He's serving on their behalf. He's serving our behalf.
- 3:16Ardon was the person who gave us atonement to his service.
- 3:19At the same time he carries us on his shoulders to indicate the
- 3:23fact that a leader has to be carrying along his people, on
- 3:29his shoulders, under his burden. That's the idea of carrying the
- 3:32stones on his heart and on his shoulders.
- 3:34And this plays into another theme from Alfredo Shot.
- 3:38There are two more things I want to talk about. 1 is, is the
- 3:41basuk into Sava? I keep saying the Atta avatar
- 3:44Avatar. Who is God talking to when he
- 3:46says you? He's talking to Mosheba Shamis
- 3:50and saying you will direct the construction of these guns.
- 3:56You will bring forth your brother Adorn to dress him as
- 4:01the Kohenga Doran Kohen. You you, you all right Why you
- 4:07Very interesting fact about Fascia de Tavea 2 facts fact
- 4:11number one and all the Prashiat from when Marshall Abeda was
- 4:16born until the day he dies his name is mentioned every Pasha
- 4:21everyone except for one. Which one?
- 4:24This one Pasha at the seven. So it says you, you you talking
- 4:28to Moshe Beno. Bashan never says his name.
- 4:31Why no name? So Moshe Beno, as we know, when
- 4:35the army so committed to Hete Hashem wanted to wipe away our
- 4:39people and start freshman Michelle Benoit becoming the new
- 4:42leader. And Moshe Benoit said, if so, if
- 4:45you do that, don't do it. You can't do it.
- 4:47And if you do it out of Hashem, erase my name from yourself.
- 4:51So God didn't erase Musharra his name from the whole book by
- 4:55Hashem her Mushiah's Tifilah protected our people, but at the
- 5:00same time had to keep Musharraf's words to a degree.
- 5:04And therefore Hashem removed the name Musharraf from at least
- 5:08from one pressure. That's if I shot that's of it
- 5:11doesn't have his name. All right.
- 5:14By the same time it does save Atta.
- 5:18It does say you, you, you overnight.
- 5:21So they have the theme is, is that a leader or Moshebena being
- 5:24the leader is more San nefesh gives off his life, gives up
- 5:28himself, gives up his responsibility, gives up
- 5:31everything. And because of that, Moshebena
- 5:34said the words erase my name. You know what the words you
- 5:37erase my name mean from the book.
- 5:38It means he was giving up himself.
- 5:40He was saying for the sake of Amisel, I'm willing to give up
- 5:44by entire existence. Musharna's existence is the fact
- 5:48that he begged the Torada. His existence is the fact that
- 5:51he's the one who saw this week, wrote the Torah.
- 5:53It's called Torad Moshe Hashem Torad Moshe.
- 5:56And then he says he erased my name.
- 5:57What you are saying when you say you erase my name is really
- 6:00you're saying Moshe erase my legacy.
- 6:03And that is the definition of a leader being Moshe Nefesh.
- 6:08So he said I don't carry the stones of army.
- 6:10So on his shoulders he's giving of himself on behalf of our
- 6:14people, representative of Moshe Baronis Pradoshah, who had said
- 6:18at one point that you raised my name.
- 6:20And in this Pradoshah we don't mention his name, but he raised
- 6:23his name because that is a leader, a leader of someone who
- 6:26is willing to give up everything, not just their money
- 6:30or their time or their effort or their mind space.
- 6:34They're willing to give everything, even their legacy.
- 6:37Like what Sherman who offered up that the erasing of his legacy,
- 6:41erasing his name from the Torahs, erasing of his legacy,
- 6:43he's willing to give that up for the sake of his people.
- 6:46That's a leader. So in our Prasad, we have our
- 6:48own carrying the stones of our Miselle like a leader.
- 6:53Mosen Nefesh carrying us along and Yamochi Labano erasing,
- 6:58having his name erased, not being mentioned.
- 7:01That's what Al Prasad doesn't say his name.
- 7:03Here's one beauty. It doesn't say his name, but it
- 7:07does say his impact over and over and over again.
- 7:13Hashem is talking to him. You, God's talking, never
- 7:16recommend. And you do this and you do that.
- 7:18You do the other thing, which means your name is mentioned
- 7:22less than ever, but your impact is felt more than ever.
- 7:26And that's really the definition of a leader in full circle.
- 7:29Not a leader is willing to be more seneppish.
- 7:32He's willing to give up himself. He's willing to sacrifice, he's
- 7:36willing to erase his existence that comes to his own name being
- 7:41mentioned. But at the same time his impact
- 7:45will be felt even more in this prashant more than any prashant.
- 7:49Yeah, Mosheila been in a certain sense his personal impact.
- 7:52I'll give you an example. 1 is that he was the one.
- 7:55Moshe was the one who made physically made out on and his
- 7:59sons quani. It was a process and a ceremony
- 8:03done by Moshe Berger. It wasn't done by God himself,
- 8:06it was done by Moshe. Moshe got out on dressed, put on
- 8:11the clothing, put on the oil, turned out on into kohenga doll
- 8:16and turned his sons into koheni. So Moshe Berger's impact is felt
- 8:20more than ever as well. In the beginning of the
- 8:22parishah, we talk about the oil necessary to light the mineral.
- 8:28And the way it worked was you need to crush olives and you
- 8:32need to get the first drop of every olive.
- 8:35I have to be as pure as it gets, perfectly pure.
- 8:39And who was the one to decide if that passes to be used in them
- 8:43in the island of bed in my gosh, or doesn't pass or shall have
- 8:47been. So here's a man whose name isn't
- 8:49mentioned because he was willing to sacrifice his everything,
- 8:52including his legacy. But at the same time, his impact
- 8:57is felt in a very extreme way. And that's really the full
- 9:00definition of a leader. It's not about their name being
- 9:03mentioned lights. It's more about the fact that
- 9:05the impact is felt everywhere. I think a direct segue to what
- 9:10goes on an hour this month when it comes to more shining.
- 9:14But with this will close. And that is the month of Adar
- 9:18was the month that that, you know, Amman felt was the perfect
- 9:22month to strike our people and for good reason.
- 9:25And that is because he felt that the Mazal of the month of Adar
- 9:28is very weak on our behalf because Musharraf banner, our
- 9:31leader died during this month and Zainad Dar.
- 9:34And that made a lot of sense. He was kind of right mushed did
- 9:37die that it is a weak mazal our leader died.
- 9:40But what he didn't realize also is that Musharraf banner was
- 9:44born on the same day he died. So it's also a great mazal
- 9:48because Zainad Daraz of a Musharraf banner was born was a
- 9:51show mazal. So what was Ahmad thinking?
- 9:53He, Hamad, knew what he was doing.
- 9:54He had the consolations figured out.
- 9:56He felt weakness. He noticed that this month is
- 9:59weak. So is it weak because our
- 10:01greatest leader we ever had died or is it strong because he was
- 10:05born? I would have said, I don't know,
- 10:07test the waves of how strong the mazal is.
- 10:11And if you as a man who picks up mazalot can tell that this we
- 10:15don't, but he does. If you're a man who's picking up
- 10:18mazal and you find that the mazal is weak, then you're
- 10:20right. If the mazal is strong, then
- 10:22you're wrong. Or is a weak.
- 10:23Could Moshe died? Or was it strong because Moshe
- 10:26was born and he just missed the mark?
- 10:28He couldn't tell if the mazel was even weak or strong.
- 10:31I think the answer is this. It was weak when it comes to
- 10:36Moshe's name existing, Moshe's publicity, Moshe the banner's
- 10:41own actual, you know, big deal. But it was strong when it comes
- 10:46to the impact of the arm. Because Moshe as a leader, his
- 10:49entire life's definition was I make major waves, but not my
- 10:54name doesn't make major waves. My noise doesn't make major
- 10:57waves. My overall lasting legacy of the
- 11:00impact that I caused that makes major waves.
- 11:03So you look at the name, you find Moshe died.
- 11:05The Moshe is erased. Very true.
- 11:08But the Moshe's impact is alive and well and stronger than ever.
- 11:13That Zion Adaro, that's the mund of Adar.
- 11:15That's the season that we and that's the power shot that we
- 11:17and the leader is a person who's willing to sacrifice his money,
- 11:23his time, his effort, his energy, everything and even his
- 11:27legacy. But at the same time, with that,
- 11:30a leader builds an impact with that money, with that time, with
- 11:33that effort, and he creates a stronger than ever a legacy
- 11:38because the impact on Moshe Abedneo is impact of no name but
- 11:42Vatar. Vatar means you you directly
- 11:47mushair beno have the greatest impact on you're willing to
- 11:50sacrifice your name and the truth is, if you go even one
- 11:54step deeper now just to make another connection mushair
- 11:57making our own Cohenga do if you realize what that ceremony was,
- 12:01it was a very difficult ceremony.
- 12:03Why was it difficult? What was a hot mushair man to
- 12:06make our own kindness up. I was the younger older brother
- 12:09Mushair. I almost his older brother, but
- 12:11but at the same time, Mushair originally was first Kuan Tadul
- 12:17in the mid bar. He was the Kuan Tadul and he was
- 12:20destined to remain the Kuan Tadul.
- 12:23He lost it because of a couple of things that he did early,
- 12:25early on and his lack of acceptance of taking on the
- 12:28leadership role. So he lost it.
- 12:30He lost not Kuan Tadul. So when he was handing over the
- 12:33role of Kuan Tadul to his brother, he's only taking it
- 12:37from himself and giving it to his brother.
- 12:40Perfect definition for perfect description of a Moshe did his
- 12:45whole life. His legacy was taking of himself
- 12:48and giving to somebody else. And that's the legacy of the
- 12:52Verita man. No name but all impact.
- 12:55That's the legacy of this man and our person.
- 12:57Start with this.
