Welcome to my life because it has applied episode 281. We are in the beginning of the month of husband, which is what some call the dry month in a way relative to the holiday season the rich holiday season of tishri. We've now entered in the dry season in the sense that there are no holidays in this month. We spoken about this a number of times beautiful see her from the rubber where he explains why that's the case because now is the real litmus test after we've been enriched and empowered by all the energy and all the nourishment and abundance that came from Russia Hashanah Yom, Kippur tsukishima terrorism list era and Chavez Bodacious and you now we'll see how we unpack all of this into our personal lives. So the best way to test it is by actually having a situation where you don't have any holidays now to lean back on you have the strength, but now comes our Aveda our work on our effort. Which of course is never as dramatic and as is Sensational as when you have the Gilliam the revelations of a powerful month like tishrei, but we're life really plays itself out in the purpose of existence is fulfilled and realized is when we are so to speak on our own. I don't want to say we're on our own we're never on our own but I'm a revealed level we are now asked to rise to the occasion and that effort even though it does not have all that revelation. Is the key to the entire purpose of existence because as I said this explains before the symptom addition it is self dominated Divine Consciousness was the only thing that existed and even after the symptom the higher world that still this Arc and then the other worlds in that Silas are a lot. Of course, they're divine. Was that it has no solution that as the alter rebbe explains in chapter 36 and time you how L am you did the mayor part of his body as one of the explanations goes that's a you read that because God is always higher than those all those Revelations. We're does it change is entertain him? We come into a world that is the void unrevealed level of divine revelation. And that's where the purpose is. That's within the side of the God's desire is that in a world that on its own is divine. Energy is concealed that were able to discover it the spark and fan it and ultimately transform the material world, which on its own is can even opposed the Divine to become an actual home and Abode a comfortable environment for the Divine. So in the months of the year has been captures that a lot more than tishrei does so tishrei is like the power of the holidays and test run is where plays itself out in real life in our routine. As in our patterns in our daily mundane activities. So yes, we have a Shabbos each week, of course and we have different days that we can look to like for example, Zion Cashman, which I'll talk about in a moment how Christian is the birthday of the lab rishabh but holidays a potato or tension because I were to show up are even the meaning of Saul don't we don't have during this month and therein lies its power. So of course, it's very fitting then that this would be the become weak of Lahore. What is Laka Laka Laka Laka ma that's coming from a basic vehicle and see this explains the lab explains that local how refers to every Journey every Journey out of your comfort zone whether it's a comfort zone that maybe a negative place like where of Rome was living was not the best place. He was going toward the promised land but local cause a reference to every Journey requires moving out of your comfort zone whether it's a it's a The comfort zone not you cannot just do it by rote or mechanically but has to be a journey a traveling to go to a place that's beyond where you've been there before and of course I assessment also indicates Journey what is science has resigned says no current a locker. We don't begin to ask for the rain, even though we prayed for it. I should be net service and we will the prayers were fulfilled but we ask that the rain hold up until Zion has been that's when we really begin to ask for it. That's a stroll. Because the reason as the shock inaudible brings because the Jews who were early Rego the pilgrimage that they made to the base. I'm English for circus. They traveled back. So some live closer to Israel. But the the ones that live the farthest from Israel during the second temple was the people who went back to Babylon, which is Euphrates actually give you the action shall be sold the hard process the Euphrates River the last ones that came to Israel took them till Zion cutter until the seventh of cash bonuses. This is like the conclusion as I'll deliver sites like the conclusion of the holiday in a way because they're still under the under the effect and the aura of the holidays until they get there and not to make their lives uncomfortable by causing it to be raining on their Journey. We make sure that we the rains don't Begin to Fall till after that. There's a lot to be said about that of the a versus all the lesson of is so that even though rain is so important we hold that because there may be one person who may be uncomfortable. But one point that that one focus on is the journey aspect that you see the holiday does not conclude just with some Christina includes with the Yakama local decay in the expression that's used at the lab amused the journey the journey to return back to we are home and settled back there with enriched and empowered by all the holidays and that becomes then that's when we and that's why as I encouragement is as you significant date with Cochran and so on because that's when the last ones arrive there, but if you think deeper into The means that it's not enough just to have the holidays but it's necessary that you go back in peace with the power of the holidays in order to integrate it and internalize it in your life, which is of course the significance to us today and therefore local Colour and design ex-husband are have a connection as the devil speaks in the number of seekers number of stocks. He also connects it. Of course two things the themes that are connected to the partial local court and as well as partial layer, which is will be talking about in a moment. But I want to begin I should have said this earlier that this program is dedicated and honor of mati Jacobson and Sarah Denberg upon their wedding on the sixth of judgment, which is tomorrow dedicated by The Jacobson family. So that should have been stated at the outset. I'm saying it right now. I got caught up in The Passion of the description of the time in which we are in this also an opportunity to announce that Exodus applied that calm you can find all the archives of these. You can submit any question honestly confidentially and are Anonymous form as well as take advantage of the other resources that you can find the city supply.com. Okay now cross-referencing spoken about Zion Federal and local car in episodes, 40 86 136 185 and 231. I like to be thorough since there's been different angles. I've done the discussed like to do the cross referencing to include at all even though Yes, it takes effort for you to press those buttons to go there. But in case you want to hear more about this was discussed then okay, but because the theme of this week is when we coming from Passion area. Which we know was the story of the flood the destruction to the cleansing of the world as we discussed last week and preparing it for ilum, huh - raw a new world was created with an Ayah coming out of the Ark together with his family. They built a new world a world that would now be refined and a deeper level and one that can become a did Abbott octane in the world before the marble had a lot of power, but it all came from above it was lacking what I mentioned with husband was lacking. that effort From Below and after the model now became earth that is more refined and now able to also produce which is why ten Generations from now yesterday and the passion are begins of Rome story of Rome his career. He hastened Godless. The rambam said it's not God is great power this great force. That entered the world and begin to shine and illuminate and bring godliness back into human consciousness that was concealed with the beginning when they eat from the Tree of knowledge and it got worse as it progressed. Of course, the marble was the low point and then it began to The world was refined with the marble and then it's avraham avinu began the process of so called cleaning the pipes and reconnecting the the world existence with the divine. I'm going to get into the direction of Romano are here that's not relevant to our discussion. So the end of Mayor starts the story of Aroma Vino and luckily how continues the story of of reims Journey. A big theme in these chapters is as we all know banana. Yeah, we talked about NeNe are that the nations of the world are often results referred to as the children of Nia, but they're also referred sometimes the children of Aroma of ammo in gyeom father of all Nations. Obviously have ROM came from shame. One of the three sons of Noah, and the other two sons were also ancestors to the human population today, but both of them associate the nations of the world because remember there was no Jewish Nation yet in the formal sense of the word that would not happen till the 26th generation from creation meaning six Generations after of Rama V know after Abraham, but they're big but the seeds have been planted of God of Rama V new introducing godliness to whom to the nation's so therefore I thought appropriate to address a few questions that were connected to exactly that Sheva mitzvos bnei Nia. I should add that the rebel speaks about it. And one of the talks of Zion husband says I husband's about to avoid the being the work being back in your home in your place, which means not to be an artist at all in Israel in the holy land and the holy city of Jerusalem and the holy place called The based on big dish but the bring that Holiness back to where you are in the rabbit says that essentially the theme of the shovel. Mrs. Blaine are because the nations of the world after the model what happens we have the dead have flogger the end of Nowak has not Story before I've ROM is the story of the Dead are flooded which is the generation that went and built the Tower of Babel to defy God or they were self-made creatures. And ultimately God felt the need to confuse their language so they should separate and then be some and from there they spread out all over the world and that that the downside of it is they were not unified anymore. But the upside is they spread around the world in order to transform the world that each one would do with their own way with their own language with their own particular customs. And that's the world in which we live in today. Obviously it took time till the transmigration was complete but the world that's where it began the transmigration and slowly. On that Mesopotamian Valley slowly spread and populations began to grow throughout Asia and then through Europe and Africa as well as ultimately to in the hot chick hydroton our hemisphere meaning Army in the Americas and the rest of the world. So that spreading on one hand was due to the fact that they reunited for their bad cause but spreading also has the advantage that it's like as I encouragement experience. Everyone goes to their place in order to refine their corner of the world. So here are a few questions that have come in on this topic and it's not the first time we've talked about it. So let me just read a few of them and I will address it. Here. We are. Hello, Robbie Jacobson. As this week is Passion area that was last week. Can you please give Clarity on what we should be doing for 7 Min has been there. And the background behind it in the times of Slammer melek King Solomon. It was peaceful. Did the ID invented the Jews then teach the non-jews the seven noahide laws. Well mayor be around when Michelle comes. Thanks. Another question in this family. You said once on your podcast that non-jews are the Huskies Siddiqui Omega L on The task is City of Salem. I should say that they are considered to be righteous Gentiles today. Do you still hold that so let me begin with that question first. I never said it quite that way the way I would phrase it would be is that the nations of the world are in general today? Actual or potential righteous Gentiles studio Miss A Land Based on the embassy has a mark of success in America and other nations of the world. So they are and we're right at the threshold of gokula of redemption that all it takes is just a light the spark and the Nations will Embrace principles that they've already embraced which was not the case hundreds of years ago principles of justice of Charity of kindness of benevolence based on of Rama V news teachings. Which we've talked about a number of times. So let me go back now to the first question the process is this as let me just go back to the beginning. It says God created the Heaven and Earth voracious the last day of creation after the whole stage was set the table was set he brought Adam and Eve into the world and says the of the leshawna You Shall Serve and Protect and the language of it is based on midrashim and so on it is the world that we are there to charged to transform. Make it a did Abbott octane in my home for God in this material world. We were given choice because in this world as I mentioned before the Divine is concealed even in Ghana they had choice and they made the wrong choice the wrong choice conceals the Divine or conceals it even more the right choice reveals. The Divine the famous methods has brought in the first moment bustling a neat option you would from the freezer could have been that ever reviewed it and explained that every year chapter per year of the 20. Chapters, what does it begin with the medicine She-Ra She-Ra Rabe boss Lagana. Hey sakala, the ghani like Silk in Laguna. Allegheny doesn't say The Greening of the ghani because Eco Shrine of entertaining myself. The primary screen was down on earth when Adam and Eve were in the garden. However, by the way, they ate from the Tree of knowledge. It is nostalgic. It was removed to the first Heaven from Earth removed means concealed and each subsequent generation of transgression say, So we create a dissonance a separation a Schism between the existence and its purpose is Divine Purpose think of a machine which is called life is created for a purpose and if you don't fulfill that purpose you disconnect it from the Opera from the architect and the engineers qivana and intention and creating it and how and how do you follow those laws of the LaShonda positive mrs. Negative midst was the things you're supposed to do to make them a home for the Divine and things just As to avoid then comes generation after generation concealment the marble, I mentioned that earlier briefly the marble like reset the start button. We started the process by cleansing and now creating a world that is more capable of becoming such a home and I've Rama V know ten Generations from New York began to bring the Shekinah back down from the 7th Heaven to the sixth. It's called from the 6th to the fifth each subsequent generation. Race until the Seventh Generation moisture obtained from of ROM brought it down to earth with the building of the mishkan of the Temple of the sanctuary that followed Martin Toros Sinai that followed the Exodus from Egypt. That's the story then after Tara mightn't are now the world is now bench has been given a power that you can actually transform materialism to make it a healthy social Dosha to take matter and turn it into spirit. And that has been The Works ever since from then till this day when that work is finished or to some extent finished from our part and God can always choose depending when the Tipping Point is the mushiya Gula comes and what is then when niggler cry - am the Divine is revealed even more than it was at Sinai and even more that wasn't got Natan before the sin and The Total Transformation of the universe now forever with a third Temple Mala out. His days are Shem Kamehameha see me? World filled with Divine knowledge as the waters cover the sea and all other expressions and versus in your shy and other another prophecies that maimonides site some of them at the end of his mission of Tate. That's the story in history as the debit tells us that process. We have come to the end or close to the end and we just have to do something to tip the scale. But these years these thousands of years of work have refined the world to the point that the nations of the world themselves. Are no longer those Pagan Nations that were just blood lusting and Pagan and completely idolatrous. You have Nations that Embrace principles not completely but the principles were given all the way by other other magician actually it says that where they call them Sheva mitzvos bnei neue. Why not been a Adam because the seventh one was added to Batu Niah and New York ratified also the ones given to other because after the destruction of the world network was the only one left and now all people come from Penang. Are the children of Nia so now was given a code a code of ethics and morality called the seven misrepresented as the number of explains that code was spelled out at Mount Sinai as well that the Jewish people have a responsibility not just to do them. It was but to share and Inspire and Empower and disseminate these seven noahide laws which as commentaries and as poskim explain how much more than seven there's seven general principles. And this has been done over the years as the rebbe explains in many of his talks from the mems. The 80s was simply not possible for the Jewish people to do that because they were in second and danger basically trying to protect themselves. Let alone trying to influence the non-jews would have not been taken exactly lightly. But now we have that opportunity, but that doesn't mean that work has not been done in different ways during shots. It's - Asia w-who done others that works with non-jews and of Rama himself. The goddess are not human awesome. And suddenly a Edison ocean and might entail itself had an impact on the nations of the world which we've discussed also a number of times directly indirectly and ultimately the impacted the yes, the religions of Christianity and Islam is some ways are based on principles that are from Aveeno taught them were confirmed then be formalized at Sinai but this is this the but that doesn't mean the work was done. So essentially the work was to written really find the world meant refine ourselves until another Was people and our personal lives and our communities and our environments, but it extends also to spread the message and disseminated through the nations of the world that they should to be refined and to embrace the Divine mandate that they were given to civilize this world and to turn it into a just world and a kind word and a compassionate world. And we are deep in that process which means a lot has been done but there's always more work to be done. So when you ask the question, what should we do in for several minutes has the rabbit makes it very clear every opportunity we have whether it's individuals that we speak to or it's and business that were doing business or you go to a doctor or a lawyer or whatever. It may be whatever you have that opportunity is to somewhat in a in a nice way talk about God give them a book to read. Inspire teach very similar to how we would do with our own brother with our own brothers and sisters because they too have a mandate and they will be thankful to us and respond positively those that have influence in Government and government officials and public leaders are Business Leaders are or or educational leaders or professors or someone can do it through that means whatever means possible we have to use the opportunity to teach people and to educate and inspire And obviously not the kind of sending God forbid way, but no beautiful way in a way of sharing these moral code which is the upon which rested entire Foundation of all ethics the concept that there's an eye that sees an ear that here is the concept of moment of silence and on and on which I'm not going to go into detail because I'm going to give you some references to times I spoke about this more at length. Yes in Thomas lamella we say there's a taste of this because it's Jim Mueller was a peaceful time and malka. Schwa. And others came and brought gifts to Schlemmer Miller. So he was like a powerful flame drawing the Sparks to him. But there's no question whatever there was an opportunity to Jewish people and their leaders have influence. Look Mordecai had influence on artists fetish moisture influence on party. With all the challenges so it's always the attempt to make to have that influence. Sometimes it was difficult. Sometimes it wasn't received. Well, but the effort was always made because that was the come on everyone knew from beginning of History. That's the intention. It's not some Modern phenomenon. Will there be around on Michelle comes while look but it's a gilgul of Nia Reincarnation of Nia or obviously his children and his pedigree in his descendants will be around. I've not seen anywhere. No. Yeah. Why not if he was at ease Added why we did not return but that's something that can be looked into but that's my initial reaction. Now going back to the muscles, so they're not I want to call them but Jessica's call them that they are now in a state with their either actual or potentially righteous Gentiles and that's something that is something that we can we can access which means you can speak to someone and you can you educate them and many people are ready receptive than already behaving in a righteous ways. But you may be some are not doing it's completely or like all of us are not perfect. But we're in a place where we can definitely influence the nations of the world in that way. As explained the many many fields, so I wanted make the cross references to episodes 3112 192 through 194 to 4247 267 and 271. This was an overview and I hope answered some of the questions and of course very relevant to our time. Meaning what we're reading now in the Torah, which is Nayak and of ROM because you see their story if you put think of it in the bird's eye view context as I just lay it out. You see how eloquent the story is with all the difficulties. Challenges but it's a story that unfolds from the beginning of History the transformation of the world which includes the nations of the world, which actually began within Nations and from there grew out gray maquette of guy the nation of Israel. So even the Jewish people came from the nations of the world. They were children of Maya semites for shame. I've Rama V know and they embraced willingly of ROM starting from a ROM the principles of the Divine principles and slowly be made it part of their family the amount of shared servers born of as basically a crew of lasses documents, but that's well over a brand did that he educated and trained his family to continue this Legacy of doctor, Miss, but kindness and justice. And that continued through the generations all the way you talk yaakov. And then the SWAT team and even when they went to mitzrayim they maintain that standard despite the great bondage and they ultimately would come out of the ghost greater and stronger than ever and the nation would be built and forged at Sinai and the rest is history. Now, they would then go back to their cousins and to all the relations whether it's the children of a server the children of your small which are cousins of the Jewish people because children of RAM and Yitzhak respectively As you said the other audio small first then a salve and to teach them what their own father taught them. The morality and ethics of zuckerman's but through the Sheva mitzvos bnei Nia. And the rest. I've already shared how that evolves all the way to the end of time when we finally refine the world and the nations are refined and the shear is ready to come. So with that we'll go to another question which flows straight from this are we truly a light unto the Nations. Every Eastern cultures have had very little connection with Judaism yet. They make up more than half of the world's population. So then how can we really say that we are supposed to be a light unto the Nations if we had very little exposure with half the world. Okay, very good question. When we talk about Eastern culture talk about Western cultures, which I just discussed. You could say Christianity was the major religion and Islam is really the covers almost a large large percentage of the western world. Even the Eastern world has embraced some of it as well. But you talk about the eastern and Far Eastern cultures, correct Jewish student that really live there recently. They have they live more but not never in the large numbers and the question of course is so when you say light on two Nations, what are we ignoring have the All India China right there. You have half the world. So the answer my friends is this. Firstly you may be familiar with the fact that of Rama V no impartial quesada after service passing. He went back and took to door which was hugger and had children with her and then he sent those children. It says to the east Laden with gifts and Rashi says Sheamus names. Yes, they may have been names with the negative energy, but they were holding it but they were they were spiritual names and some explained that this was the spirituality that was passed on through these children of avraham avinu. That would later become Buddhism and some of the other major Eastern thoughts and cultures and religions and if you can call it a religion and that's why some point out that the books about this that Brahman in in Buddhism is the concept of Abraham a Brahman as well as other words and themes and that's why also you'll find a lot of similarities. Between Eastern thought schools of thought and mysticism Jewish mysticism many Jews in the 60s looking for their soul went off to the east because they did not find it in their own backyards. Unfortunately tragically but many through that came back to Jesus kite and then discovered and incidents which of course follows Kabbalah. It's a lot of the spiritual ideas there. I have interacted with many people that are masters of that school of thought those schools of thought some of them do And even famous ones as well leaders and they were amazed about the similarities. If you look in the schedule is if you look at the Historical Roots, it's not difficult to imagine that a from of you know, who was the father of monotheism and maybe the first pioneer of spiritual thought in history would have children and definitely students that would transmigrate as they moved to different places. So it's not inconceivable to say that the Eastern cultures are also influenced by these ideas and thoughts. It's second point one can make is based on the famous story with a maggot basis of that. Once they set a big Kiddush a big innovation and learning and students were amazed at this Innovation. And then later that one of them was traveling and he came to a small town and they're having a share in that particular Gomorrah and the simple simple relatively simple not scholar teacher says exactly The Innovation that he heard just now from his Great Master see went back to Disturbed and said you said something that was definitely a finish that no one ever thought of in here. Relatively simpler person is saying it's a said once a there's a breakthrough and it's endured a channel opens up of an idea that comes into this world. It affects everybody and makes it easier for everyone to come to the same conclusion, which also explains the whole Industrial Revolution just as an aside, but it helps to understand this that suddenly not in a seemingly Progressive Way, you would think Innovation should have happened every hundred years every another hundred years, but suddenly in a period Time which is identified usually 1848 year tough race. There was an explosion exactly as they are predicts an explosion of upper knowledge higher knowledge and lower knowledge of science that was called Industrial Revolution. Now, of course, it's an accumulation of much that happened before that. But once something opens up the channels open up and the higher levels, it also opens up on the lower wisdom, and it's only gotten accelerated ever since with the computer Revolution and atomic revolution of the nuclear Revolution and information revolution. Lucien Etc, so you can say that the Sinai impacted not just the easy Western World and impacted the entire world and made the ground that truths can be found everywhere. Those are the two points. I would make now finally today. We could be a light unto all nations and we should be a light unto all nations because with technology and with travel with so many people doing business in the East and Far East and with technology now, there is no limit like that at all in Korea. They love to learn talmud. I have no doubt that if we would disseminate spiritual thoughts and ideas to the Eastern countries cultures, they would gobble it up. They would eat it up because firstly they already have and their own Similar ideas and they would see fascinating insights into The Human Condition in to Transcendence into spirituality. So that was actually responds to that. Okay, let's move that those who recovered annoy a colossal car type of thing going in the beginning of this year the rebel equates working with the non-jewish world as with Jacques room with traveling into the world because in tishrei where most more and more secluded in our own souls and our own Community celebrating but now we go out to the world whether it's the Euphrates in Babylon or the or symbolically any other place we travel to is the work of Forming the world with the energies we received in the month of tissue. I'm moving on to another topic completely. Nothing is unrelated as we know but at least ostensibly is not directly related and that is labov archers and pace. Why do some Jews? Have long pay aside likes and others do not. It's one question. Another question was asked. Many pictures of the altered ever. Well, I wouldn't say many there's one picture of the altered ever. There's one portrait painting show him with pay us. Yes. Well, let's just make it clear. It's not pays that rundown. You see here over the year behind you see that you cannot cut it based on that portrait and there are beim already were made, they beard witness and testified to the accuracy of that portrait. So why are they not distended amongst them today? That question I've never seen before. Well, we'll try to answer the best of my ability and hopefully as this is a partnership you can engage with me and share your thoughts. If you have some insights something that I may have missed something that may have been said, please so let me do a quick summary first of all the concept of paying beard and payers because there's two separate things is a beard mail beard and his pay is that grow down. From the head the here on the cranium the hair on the head. So it says clearly in vayikra. You test called Zion 1927 The Vedic is the issue sir. It's an instrument eraser that you're not supposed to cut your the pace to translate it from the tailor. Do not round off the here at the edges of your heads. Mauro Marcus 20b explains that the term edges refers to the hair between the ears and temples So rounding out the edges would mean refers to the removing the Sideburn so that there's a straight hair line from the forehead to behind the ears. Now how long have this is? Of course, I'd and halacha in the rambam mission at a little survey the 0:12 one. And they saw stuff on the tortilla the day 181. And the reason given there as well as in the clinic 251 and maneuver him 337 means kg mole Perry lamins Ian is because it's this is what idolaters I doubt I'd out towards people who are Idol worshipers. That's how they they would cut their so to distinguish from that. That's why it's not done some say about the sidelines meaning the pay is and the sides so that that suggests a cost of and not necessarily due to that reason. That's interior today 181 and that can measure and the pressure on location. Okay, but the question now is the length of the pace we establish now that there is a need to leave the paste. The question is the length of the pace. You see some students who are pays wrong some longer than others and some Ichabod as it is also meaning of Ashkenazi many swasey communities that you cut the pace where we choose the beard. So I should add that there are spotted yemenite and others that do also grow long pace. So there's different Customs questions. What is the basis of it? And why each one does what they do. So let's treat first a little practical then we'll talk about the mystical reasons. So instruction are here today at 181 9. The question is where do you cut the pace? Where is the limit where what means pay us is a below the ear, which means would be till here or is it the side of the air which would mean somewhere here? So one would be with the beard begins and the other would be a little deeper into the beard. So it's not that clear its ambiguous in the show Hinata. Because it says they're stating that the area extends to below the air but then going on to explain that extends to the place where the upper and lower jaw bone Boeing bonjour bonjour bones meat which implies that is the side of the air. I'm not going to go into that goes the helices of it because that's not the this form. I just wanted it for the full picture share that with you. Now, there's a discussion at length and I'll give you some sources that some exotic. Of course those talks about it on mission is Marcus the Marcus I mentioned three five. And encyclopedia time of the brings together all the different opinions. The error is the entry our coffers ha raisch volume 10 pages 546 and 547. So basically We have a that's how long. Now the question is the costume and what is the custom what happens now? So here we have a few things. Let's talk first about the reason that we do not cut with the reason we cut the pears. So the result says that is a in give you the source in Sade. The exact expressions like this. Actually I'm taking a lot from a safer copious Carlos. It's a contemporary book that say for that gathers together all the different opinions. So there are these are says in pasteurization on the and in the time you have it serviced as well as a shower hamas's basically he's saying kind of at all rights, my teacher custom was customers. He would let them grow the pace and it wouldn't cut them until they reached Below in the place where the beard begins to grow. - Adam item welcome Salazar. Fuckin mama's so your head can that's when he cut them. To the sheer of that location kshamatha system there on Lower is not called pasta dish that's not called pay us anymore. And he says the same thing that it would cut them with scissors. I should add Miss Prime. And not allow them to basically to mingle with the beard and that's the basis of the communica bad. It's clear that ism is actually a letter from the debits rubber ulis dated cover of tishrei Torchic evolved where he asked the lever. What do you ask the devil? About this why why Chabad does not? Does does that just touch the pace? He said that he writes in and hug, you should cases. It's a miniature Leyland gay club the pace of those this custom not to touch base with the river says lady ecipitation Chabad. I have not seen seen it among the Chabad for other Arab on the contrary in other words after emphasis to cut it. The rebels are several reasons can be said but maybe one of the reasons which you hint to in your letter is not to mix the artists. There are the the energies of the two t quinium the to ornament if you wish of the you'd guilty kannada Kareena because the you'll be able to condition refers to the 13 ornaments the 13 strands of view of the beard the condition so not to mix the ones pay us and the beard because they're both you couldn't do about different Aquarium Well, he'll Lie from the devil says my footage shot is a lawyer great kind of McCarthyism espera. It's my first explicit that that is all cut them and trim them with scissors. Have our pick up your armor. The rubber says and this is how the famous thing that ever would bring about rather mahad to do things. But since it's nothing, but for me that I've karna even up here Locker was questionable how something should be done. He followed what his teacher said and it has even more so here because that's what his teacher said but his teacher did. at the end that I buy ads are piano according to the above the other lab the great question and a strong question is on those that do touch who don't touch the payers paper exam not way that is how did it and he brings some dark H over a year the day 181 as I mentioned that they here. That's extra is denim is severities and we do everything possible to minimize severities. And that gets kind of solemn semen tuft of paid 880 says do not put the pace behind the ear because some say that there is ult's statement. The results Behavior was based on a very hard. What is this? A I say Let me just tell you where that is deserves idli rava zionists a 131 be that says clearly that you should not mix the pace to the beard. So some say maybe you can put it behind the air but there's air is much more from these are shouldn't do that and that's what the darker kind was. Almost a says not to put the past behind the ear. This is the letter of the debit and printed in volume 20 you guys kadish page 10. Okay. So let's go back now. So where's the custom come from those that we're long pace? the custom they say some say from the amendment premise Lon who told his multi how Korean Squadron the masham they should never cut his pay us when he was a young boy should never cut his pace and he was mirrored the long life as a result. Also. The grandchildren are became of sons say that in his name. So I'll just give some sources for that. I'm racist and responsibilities meisha 161 that could prove it to you today. The one I mentioned before net and tell you got real antique locket. I your login page 46 the footnote and pay us Carlos of the book. The safer. I just prefer to to section 2 chapter 11. And there they discuss also has an actual source for the long Pace because we clearly have sources other way around the question is whether that may improve stands directive was only to him. Was it something meant to be for everyone that some safer ways in on this and there are others as well. But the bottom line you can say regarding that is I was Behavior one is as I said is not to mix the two and not to overwhelm the beard which is a particular the course beard, which is a particular Peak Ebola people see this and also cite the sources and I'm on it is Mom shit are from a customer. The here on the head is Mom's from Attica. Khadisha Celestial menaka when it says I think I'm your server could save a Salvation come and knock. So not to mix these two. I'm chakras like I mentioned before the rebel lose to it or says it clearly in the letter is not to mix them. What does that mean? The and Pious is the Mimosa. So this explains cabal explains between the hair and the head which is a finer here and the coarser hair of the beard. So that is brought in a few places. I'll just cite eight at a departure semat Pages 588 through 593 and I am bathed Volume 2 Pages 956 through 964 So you can basically say based on that. The dish first reason I would say is because the result didn't want to have more dim them necessary. It's not pace. So why why are you letting it grow? The second reason is not to mix this two energies not to overwhelm the energy of the beard which is connected more tomaten with the energy of kesser, which is connected more to the Golgotha The Scholar, which is Le Milam and making higher than mind. It's to integrate the two the pay is grow long in a sense. They overwhelm and overshadow in a way. I don't say overshadow overwhelmed the beard and has to be integrated and internalized more. Now as far as the Alta debit, as I said, he doesn't have pays hanging down. So that question does not apply why you got a girl like that. It could be definitely followed that is out because as I said, you see the payers are definitely caught they do not go over his beard. They hear above meaning near the ears is not doesn't look like pay is behind his ears and just let that grow because that space and he didn't cut that and there are dais that says that it's not cutting means you shouldn't cut too close to the skin the How close I'll tell them was Maximilian that as far as we go, we follow what the debit did through the collaborative they did not have fear like that. There's some that say that the fetus could happen that I had some here behind their ear. But I you look at many pictures. You don't see it at all and people who knew the rebel and so that I've been the freedom crab and deliver our shop did not see that but regardless behind the ear is Bacala Shila and I don't know if you could say that on the altar debit, but definitely growing a little more. The rebel took haircuts and there wasn't the here like the alphabet. So the end of the day is the Ultra Balls Behavior was completely that he behaved that way does not mean that all that I've been followed exactly that even though other than altered a bit does his condition. Holy but it could be that was a specific thing. He did and for that reason as I said, as long as you don't cut too close to the skin, that's the key issue. That's how I would explain it. If anybody has more on this topic, please share it and I'll share it here in this program. Regarding the Beards which I didn't really focus on go to episodes 52 to 53 128 130 and 260 where I discuss that more at length. Okay. I hope that covered it to some extent it was more to say but I think that covers it good next. Next is a question about expanding 770. I'm sure this was already asked. What is your opinion? What do you think the rebels opinion would be about expanding 770? And another person says and why do you think it hasn't happened yet? Another person writes. I've seen recently a petition going around. An online petition calls to expand 770. What's your opinion of this petition? Is it right? Is it wrong? Okay, so I did a little research on the whole topic and I remembered from back then as we know 770 was expanded several times. First. Of course, they have an upstairs then that was not enough. So there's some 70 downstairs and it was expanding a tough shot. That was around tough should cough how follow then Top Chef has it expanded to the middle. Basically the show doubled and then finally in tough economic base time, it game element gimbal is expanded all the way to where it is now to Kingston Avenue. But as the ilum grew it became clear that we need to expand further. So the holy Styles is answers from the web about it. But let me cut straight to Tufts. America's top stream has great talk started a lot of talk about this that album self spoke about it. He spoke about it. Of course at the groundbreaking which came after many plans and discussions at the leper came out to the groundbreaking and they the stone the hoods i&l. Well tough shit in Memphis. They never spoke about it. Then by the need to expand 770 then again Lily shine it up adoption Memphis to just a little while later next month. We also have different exchanges the gut biome wrote to the debit and they never responded said come up with a plan to make sure that then the bourbon sister Goods Chabad and everyone has to be involved in this as to have their you sure all that was part of the whole process. The devil then gave instructions of what to be done. He did not want it to be an expenditure. That would be Beyond these said clearly that will show me a sign Ben 10 million dollars is more freshness is completely not to be considered. He wanted it to not be that high build high of a building. Holy s. Okay Max. I'm not too shabby. Nisha been gimmick Miata most add one floor in the and she's been should remain three four floors would be the optimal. Okay, and the different instructions and details of the matter so you can imagine that's going to be involved in it and go to the Chabad and others were involved is to chase but Mr. Hudson from New Jersey so they came up with plans on architecture that in hollowmade Circus. How she meant as they went into the leather? And we have with women for the debit and they presented in an attack on a blueprint the architecture presented a blueprint. The rebel right away reacted that has become a little church up in them floor was that ever had gangin of them not to touch the floor with the rebel went on and he said clearly that that was everything has to be built with the debit. Thank you David. They clarify what that meant the shred hurt angry David my father-in-law so they care for those that have been upstairs. The letter said no, he means when we get the Aventine downstairs. So that's the type of reference to the Chevette clearly. And basically the conclusion was that the building has to be done from north to south which means toward Union Street that south and north towards Eastern Parkway as much as possible. But definitely not west-east you can do further because it reads Kingston and West also not because that was the original 770 anyway plans continued that ever spoke about it. I shine it up at auction meant test right after that you see this must have been plans went for it what I understand from reliable sources. Is is that the main reason it did not happen the time was because the Union Street was required to be able to expand it and Union Street houses. They were not able to acquire all the houses. So by the time things that the years passed by the time they began to get thinking they could acquire it. The stroke was already in my moon base, which would be three years later. And then of course, we know what happened afterwards. That's my understanding. There may be more details more information. I'm definitely not first person with first eyewitness or first-person witness. I'm a heard it from people who I respect and rely on and if I get more information, I'll share it. So what does it mean by Amish the Understands the Revelator the Cornerstone there was the beginnings of building that least upstairs. They moved the bathrooms downstairs the woman show Plaza was built but the what the devil wanted and said clearly has to be expanded true love that ebony says even a place for eating because and from brain because that's where the debate and so on that's in the Citrus that the rebel speaks so clearly time has come. So I will not say I'm against the petition. How could I be again? If it helps it helps? I don't know if the petition will help and of the petition will affect anyone who makes the decisions around us, but to be against the petitioner if it's a good it's a this and it's not hopefully not using an any God forbid way of mclucas. I don't want to mention that word or anyway, that is unhealthy that then absolutely this is something that we see from tissue. It only continues to grow the need for some seventies expansion with clear directives from the lever that it should be done. So that's my response to this. And as I said, if anybody has more information on this by all means and hopefully will happen and will happen. Maybe Michelle should come with him before it happens and based are banished above all that I bespeaks about it as well. And then he says of course. Nobody can see us. We'll go there too slow. So the bigger this is the bigger the basic math classes will be in based medicine of the lab. Okay, let's move to another topic. and I have to make a hipster cuz the topics really have completely unrelated when Is the right time to consider getting married? Okay, so I have two questions on this really quickly High Rabbi Jacobsen. Thank you for your weekly video cast. I really enjoy them. I'm writing to you with this question because of the anonymity as background. I am an 18 year old a hold of Taylor Barker tabali chuva parents all day the student about your appearance. I have older siblings who didn't do chuva with my parents when they did and they are not observant. I'm writing to figure out when the right time to think about getting married is at this stage. I prefer anonymity. Haven't told anyone in my thoughts. However, based on your advice. I'm a redirect my path. I don't know how to say this, but I find that I'm a highly. let's put it this way and when you use the word he's using here, but highly intimate person maybe because of the greater Society at large may be because of the internet maybe because of hormones, but regardless I find celibate life is a book a very frustrating and unproductive of course learning is productive and I love learning but at the height of my drive, I don't understand what I'm doing sitting with all males unable to release my energy towards productive goal of starting a family the mission and pretty obvious says that a I seen a man should get married. I know that our community isn't done that way, but why not? I know many frustrated bokram who will have much to repent for later. Why are we not push to create families when we have both drive and youth I do know that I lack of maturity and experience. I've never dated a woman before and I know that there's so much to learn that I haven't but having grown up being taught the importance of using our reproductive organs for the work of what you described craters conduction the holy of holies and not wasting energy towards fruit the surface. I don't know why I was Shackled. In celibacy in our teens. Thanks. Another person writes how to how to know when you are ready for should know him as a young buck leaving Ash even going to work. How do you know when you are ready for seduction, especially considering if you had a bit of history with grow throughout Teenage life? Okay. So let's let's be very straight and blunt and direct here. Generally speaking the objective. Is that a bar same thing with the gross girl younger but a bockris learn and his passion should be in learning that will prepare him the best time for that is our teenage years because later we're going to be involved in work and life and survival and our families and so on learning and being passionate about learning and then whatever the age whether it's 20 21 22 23 different ages, but approximately then to begin looking into should do. However if a guy's not learning And you really cannot find the weight an outlet productive work in some way. That's that's a Toyota oriented solution-oriented the labor has letters which encourages people to get married even says some places that maybe it would be an idea that some would get married early like they do in other communities like by this fire demon. So on now that's not encourage necessarily and it's not silly. And that can be for many different reasons because we're looking that people should get mature enough, but if a person really has trueness anus and they talk to their must be in a row of maybe this time. I wouldn't say 18, maybe wait another year maybe do something find something that you can do. Meanwhile a little learning means Case by case, but it's no real answer went to begin. It all depends on the person someone comes to me and they really share these issues that you're sharing obviously what I would ask questions. I would push you I would pressure not press. Expression what to do what I mean put pressure and listening from you what's really going on and then help make a decision. So basically that's the attitude to this and I think don't think we should lock ourselves to some type of date and deadlines and age, it's Case by case. Some people do get married earlier and it's good for them some go longer because they are involved in Toyota and other things that are producers so great. But don't there's no question to what hang around and do nothing now, obviously as I said H has to be some maturity of there's no maturity, even if you're wasting your time and not learning we have to find other outlets or else the marriage may not work because God forbid because you want to have some maturity now, this is a question mostly with boys. So that's what I'm addressing. I'm not addressing the girls. So how do you know talk to someone you trust who's wise whose axis a person who understands what Taylor expects of us what? A to the devil expects of us and make the decision together, but I would not like anything out if a person is truly frustrated and challenged by this issue. Okay. I also spoke about some related topics in episodes 195 and 203 and in special Seminary Edition that I did for the for the girls seminary in base Rifka which you can also find in the series of my life because it has applied on our site either at this. It has applied that Karma or the earlier. Episodes maybe a meaningful life that can still check it out. You probably could find it all. Okay, let's move another topic now. And the question is should we be worried about the rise of anti-Semitic Acts? So someone writes the following we see recently anti-semitic anti-Semitism and acts Growing On The Rise should be worried another person, right Rabbi Jacobsen in the beginning of episode 2 55 you discuss the complacency that results for the good times during the good times and colors the truth is that from our view in Israel? We see that all that we see all the anti-Semitism in the USA and Europe from the violent Street hate crimes perpetrated in the tri-state area to AOC and the complicity of the Democratic Party. And the various crimes in Europe and we worried for you while the world does have this I'm sure is going to be controversial for some a fabulous leader in President Trump. It seems that despite all the good he's doing the evil is rearing its ugly head because butter commercial enemy automobile, Amita Sharma Even though behold ever did I'm The Man in the house a new in our times as well, which essentially is from the Venetian de that every generation you have those that are our enemies. So number one is worry is not a terror approach whenever anyone has that ever weather was in Israel during terrorist attacks or others or anywhere else that that's not approach of juices to worry. We have a talking in a sham especially in Israel. So people ask the same question you're saying we were good people were concerned about Israel with all the tax. Hey Lacey, they suck up on my machine ever hear from it again. But the rebels approach was always worried is not that Taylor approach. That doesn't mean we're not prudent. That doesn't mean we shouldn't have locked doors. We shouldn't have security. We shouldn't have all that's necessary. We should assist the government protects and the any hate crimes, but worry is not the approach. I wouldn't use the word worried. I would say we have to be prudent and we don't have to started coming alarmist because The crisis as briefly and I want to refer you to episodes 2931 251 252 and 262 or I discuss it further. One final question and the city's question and then the essays are there is follow-up. I hope you have time. Let's see, okay. The rabbi Jacobsen death penalty in the Toyota. I recently met a non-observant Jew who shared with me distress regarding the punishment of death required to be given by the Tater in his words. So one really deserve to be stoned to death for doing forbidden work on shops. Please shut some light on the subject so that I could be able to help them comprehend. These are lockers on this subject. Thank you. Okay. Let me refer you to a secret by you guys to option half test. I've 7 to 9 1969 or may have been the end of 68 there was when they landed on the moon they were to the Moon travel. They traveled to the Moon then the neighbors learned a lot of Heroes from that and one of them that I'm going to mention right now was that the Rebus said he heard somebody who's asked by it was a radio show. Somebody was asked a rabbi was asked about Rabbi. How do you explain malkmus? Which is lashes giving someone lashes because he ate it because I associate a little piece of something that's not appropriate. The rebbe said that this Rabbi didn't seem comfortable to have an answer. So those answer that he did give was acceptable but still not really answer the question. What was the answer he gave he said first of all Malcolm does not give in that easily. You have to have warning us at all and you have to have it before Witnesses and then I've added even more that the person has to do it. The Easter he has to do the Forbidden act the eating right after batea literally right after he was warned or else we don't know whether he remembers he Warren that means he knows all that and he's probably a Tamil call him that knows that he has to and he still could not control himself then lashes. So something that represents maybe happen once in a hundred years the revers expression. But the rebels says still doesn't answer the question because when they did do it for such a small thing lashes, so I think you can apply the rebels answer to this question as well. What are the numbers answer from the astronauts? They went on a mission to the moon and they were told everything how to eat and when to eat how to dress what shoes to wear. Every detail you can say who cares it's a little detail, but this detail if you don't do it the whole mission is in Jeopardy and billions of dollars is in Jeopardy and all the people that are invested in this and whatever the mission has to accomplish this in Jeopardy. So we learned from that a detail and of course it reflects what it says in the mission that a person every person was created as an individual high volume limit a person is responsible to say, but she really never Allah because of me the world was created because if you help us Save a Life you save you us and God forbid opposite and act as not just an act and it's connected to the rambam that says one act can tip the scales and bring Salvation to you and to the world. So when someone says just a little violation of Shabbos it may seem to you little but when you realize the consequences is not so little in addition, of course to all the things that skill and in general any type of punishment even lashes. They're not happen that often or come. I would just add as an aside. I just had to today look at a computer program. You could have millions of lines of code. If one that is extra one that is missing the cell of a body 75 or 30 trillion to 75 trillion cells one cell goes is mutant. What kind of Havoc it reeks 1 dot in a program. So today the question because when we might not know the consequences of what Shabbos has that needs to be explains, I would say first explain what shop is and then explain how every detail matters. Okay, because time limitations I'm going to do the follow ups next week. Let's do this to this question. Why does evil still exist after the great flood if the purpose of Noah's flood was to cleanse the world of evil as you discussed last week, then? Why is there is still evil in the world? Did God use an inferior cleansing product from a 99 Cent Store? Okay little irreverent, but I understand where you're coming from good answer is this and I alluded to the beginning of this program and that is I promised your comes and there's a permanent Divine home in this material world. The world does not cleansed from Evil. Let's define what evil means from things that are anti antithetical to what God wants. I'll go back to the example I gave life is a machine complex machine the engineer built it for a purpose told you here's what you do to keep it clean to make it work efficiently to make it come along to live up to its greatest potential. Here's what you don't do. Or else it could cause damage evil is the damage to the machine. It's a displacement are very comes from the word. This place mystery comes from the word connection this connect connect dissonance or integration. So when there's a dissonance is a separation, so when the world was created with its implementation Rod concealed there was a dissonance but there doesn't mean it was airtight. There was a cough as Kabbalah see this explains our the mauritian had a uh of tape at a deficit of the case and they could have chosen but they also know world where they could mistake. Make a mistake or deliberate because they had a choice. When the marble came and then of course the since got worse when the marble came to cleanse. Yes, it's what it did was refined the world in a way that now it's more conducive for refinement, but you can't say Michelle is here already. So there's still plenty of darkness and you see it. There have flogger comes afterwards, which is the Tower of Babel and they defy God and even after I've run of you know who begins to bring the light back in the Divine back into the world there were plenty of problems. There was just small and there was a sub in there was other nations and the story continues even later the letter Generations even my should have been you who brings the mishkan and builds the mishkan. They were the Jews built a golden calf after Mount Sinai and you had the Dustin and of Edom. He had other problems throughout the 40 years because the world is maybe refined the stages the world is refinement, but that's different levels of refinement that making more conducive Martin Tate, of course did a tremendous change because it allowed the material world to Turned into Spirit. You could say the marble haven't seen this anywhere that the marble cleansed out the harsh Denim and Voris and the harshness and coarseness that still existed from the beginning basically when children who are spoiled and given all the gifts and they destroy their own lives. So you need to somewhat tame that that's what the marble that attained the world. But Martin Taylor gave the power and of course Montana begins with avraham avinu. As the result says the data, but until you give the power to transform matter to Spirit and then the years after that that's what we've been doing and mushiya comes the goal of comes then matter and Spirits converges one and then we get not just what was before God before he takes it does but even greater as I described earlier. And that's where we are right now. So now let's do the three essays. So we have three essays. This is from essay contest 2019. First one is a big part of a bigger puzzle self-esteem exodus by multi bracha hiding spelled h15, Santa, Monica, California. a slow cooker student Ohana High School, Los Angeles A very prevalent issue she writes many people struggle with nowadays has a low self-esteem children.

As toddlers we are complimented on are nice pictures at school age students. We are praised for the littlest Action cleaning up our rooms and so on. All this is to nurture and raise and nurture our self-esteem. However, when we get older, we are constantly told you have to think of yourself as a nothing. Don't let your greatness get to your head. So how can we find the balance of knowing our strengths and goodness while not being egotistical? That's the theme of her essay. Very practical. Well done quite thorough well worth reading.
