Thank you, Israel. Thank you, Yakov. Yesterday we were able to start this Maya. We started we started our base together. I want to do I want to do a mission, a little piece of a mission in the second paragraph of us. That's really the paragraph that Israel learned this past Shabbos. I want to do a little piece, I want to tell you a shot from the Sfas Emes. Something that's so relevant to our Yeshiva. It's relevant to a person of today and I think it's like such a mysterious such a it's just so instructive how the Sfas Emes learned so I want to learn this. The mission says in the second paragraph of us. It's the end of a mission. It's a statement from Hillel. And the old-timer Hillel says, "Old-timer, don't say look chef na ashna I'm going to translate it the way most translate it. It's not we're going to get it we're going to learn deeper and better with this fast MS, but the simple translation chef na when I have time. Pardon me means when there's vacuum when there's space look chef na when I have space ashna learn sham a light upon maybe you'll never have space. Don't say when the conditions are perfect look chef na when I have time when I'm planning when I'm available then I'll learn sham a light upon maybe you'll never be available. That's the simple translation of the words. It's it's a it's a it's a truth hello else teaching a truth of life. Don't wait for the first perfect conditions. There's something you want to be something you want to do don't say when the conditions are perfect I'll do it sham a light upon it may never get the perfect position. But I want to share this fast MS is shot. It's it's it's it's clearer and it's kish mach and true. Look chef na afna is malashim pnim. Afna means space look chef na when I when I have a pnimius when I'm able to connect in a deep way then I'll learn when it means something to me when it resonates. When I'm in that space of like when when mish when I'm able to learn pnimius when I'm able to be comfortable when I'm able to I connect to it in a deep emotional way then I'll learn sham a light upon it. Who said that's what I sham wants from you? Said this fast MS maybe you won't who said it's it's a good space to be we could dive in for such things but sham a light upon it maybe you'll never maybe that's not your space Hashem wants the service and maybe you won't be in an ofen pnim. Shema like the pnim. Learn in the condition, serve Hashem in the condition that we are. We're a generation very, very much craving the pnimius of things. We're We're a generation that in some ways said, "I'll only eat matzah when I like feel it. I'll put on my tfillin." In a way we're saying, "Look, Hashem, now when it hits my pnimius, when my tfillin mamesh I I I feel it. I sense it. I know what this means. This like This is magical to me. Then I'll do it." Says the misha Shema like the pnim. Who says that stuff? Why does Hashem want it? Maybe Hashem wanted your avoda here with a certain emunah, a certain The emunah of a yid who's not feeling. Reb Nachman described his own journey and described two years where some feeling was taken away from him. He describes feeling very, very little in his avodas Hashem for two years, Reb Nachman. And mamesh the misha Shema like the pnim. Now, it's something to strive for. A yid is allowed to strive to connect by ofen pnimius, of course, and we have a whole generation craving to strive to connect by ofen pnimius. But all time of Shema nachshav only do it when I have that space. Shema like the pnim. You don't know. You'll see the avoda Hashem has for us. I started this man We started this man with the prayer of Dovid HaMelech. Dovid HaMelech praised Hashem. I think this is mamesh the prayer of today's der. If I had to sum up a prayer in the yeshiva that guys are davening, this would be the prayer that exists in the yeshiva. And the prayer is tov tam va daas lamdeni. I beg you Hashem, teach me time. I want to taste, I want an emotional bond with mitzvahs. Time. Thus is an emotional connection. Tov time. Nice mamesh, a nice time and thus. And and thus lamdeini, teach me. Dovid Hamelech prays, that's the prayer of today's der, that's craving. I We started singing in Yeshiva weekly the last many years ka esof neyam shabbos. We sing it because I feel it's like the song of the generation. Ka esof we have kisufim for the sweetness of shabbos. We want to taste it, I want to experience it. We're The guys today are so weak at being robots, at being like at just doing like a certain type of emunah pshuta, I just do it, I feel nothing. The guy our der struggles with that. So the prayer of today's der is tov time and thus lamdeini. I beg you Hashem, I want time and thus in mitzvahs. But it's rooted, it has to come from earlier ders, kiyum mitzvah she'eini ma'amin bi, I have emunah in mitzvahs. Even when I feel nothing. Shema alai tipana, maybe I won't get to that pre-mystical place. Maybe I won't have that space, have that bond. I'm willing also. Shema alai tipana, I'm willing to serve even without that, even when that's not there. Reb Nachman who understood the heart of Am Yisrael, Reb Nachman who so speaks to our generation and understands it, describes his own journey of serving Hashem without that, the Shema alai tipana, the serving Hashem with a certain kiyum mitzvah she'eini ma'amin bi, I have emunah in mitzvahs. I pray, I put on my tefillin, it's a big thing. I want to feel it. I want to experience it. I want to like know you told me to put on tefillin. I'd like to like have a time in this. I'd like to have a dance in this. But I need to do the maybe I won't get to that space right now. This year next year maybe I won't. But I'm going to trust you Hashem. And I have the faith that you understand me that I'm going to do the mitzvahs and it's and it's a big deal and it does something and I'm going to serve you in that space and from that space. So that's the shot in the mission I wanted to share. I thought I'd be remiss today if I wouldn't welcome and give a mazel tov to the TO YAAKOV ZAICHYK. >> [applause] >> I WHEN WHEN I COME INTO YESHIVA I was talking on Sunday about Raffi Pines. I just think we have such a collection of good and this morning I went on a walk. He's not here. I'm not saying it to like give him like a a cheap shout out. I'm not I was walking with I was just like wow. I was jaw dropped. I'm tired today cuz I was like listen he's intelligent a sophisticated beautiful he was taught he was talking like a just as a saying saying like deep things beautiful things. We have a collection of really beautiful deep true sincere Yaakov's one of the stars in a place of sincerity. You know in certain place if if if if if if what if I get called by certain mothers people know my weaknesses. So a mother said my son's an amazing ball player. He's crazy and the guy ends up being pathetic. Cuz that mother doesn't know what a ball player is. You have to know who it's coming from when somebody says somebody's a ball player. If if somebody says somebody's nice and it's a mean community so nice is like schmo. If you say here a guy's nice whoa. When we speak about Akiva ben Perachya being nice, that's nice. >> [applause] >> It's like It's a place In a place of night In a place [applause] of night [cheering] night So, I want to say about Yakov Zeitchik. I want to say about the chassan just the sincerity, a beautiful journey. I want to specifically say and it speaks about him and it speaks about his parents. I want to say p'shat in the Mishna and Avos. I want to say p'shat in praising the chassan. I want the everybody to hear this because I think it's a good p'shat. The Mishna says It's It's this perek is Rebbi Yochanan ben Zakkai Rebbi Yochanan ben Zakkai had five talmidim. And he was mineh shvachin and he's saying the praises of his talmidim. And one of his talmidim, Rebbi Shimon ben Chananya, says, Ashrei yeladetehu. Fortunate are the people that gave birth to him. Ashrei yeladetehu. Fortunate are the people that gave birth to him. Now, why is that a praise of him? Mineh shvachin says he was saying the praises. What's this praise? Fortunate is the one who gave birth to him. What are you saying about him? Now, it means clearly he's so outstanding, he is the praised. But you didn't say what the praise is then. All the others seem to say something about the person. Eliezer ben Hyrcanus is a bor sud sheynah mavtich He doesn't forget anything. What's a maila? He knows a lot of Torah. I I want to hear your Torah. That's what he says. I'll go. Rebbi Yochanan ben Zakkai is saying about Eliezer ben Hyrcanus, he's a bor sud, he's a laminated pit, he's a sealed pit, sheynah mavtich. He doesn't forget one thing. That's a maila of a person. You're saying a praise, he remembers that he doesn't forget a thing. I hear that. Um Y C coin is a Hasid. A Hasid mission is speaks about the behaviors of a person. The son of the great The son of mine you're speaking about my of the men. This one is lucky are his the people gave birth to him. Wow, praised are the people gave birth to him. What praise did you say about that? You're a mate. You know sometimes sometimes they give a very general praise. The Rambam says that after is to praise people. You say you praise to somebody is very somebody we've all gotten compliments that matters. But when you compliment is vague, you're awesome. I hear thank you. You didn't say anything. You're amazing. Say something. Guys here guys here cool cool that we call each other out. If I'll tell a backer up tell you why. Like shut up Kayla you're proud of me. Why? Tell me why. Tell me what you're saying. What is this is lucky fortunate are his parents. What did you say about him? So this it's a strong question what the a lot of we're taught by the way that his mother brought his crib to the base madras and left a big impact on him. We still need to what is the mile of been lucky are his parents who parents have such a son. I want to I want to say you hear you hear my it says my my actually a lot of fortunate are his parents. Wow parents I share a lot of praise are his parents who have such a son. A praise on to the parent. Somebody somebody was telling me somebody was telling me that it was very hard for them to go to their own seder. They want to go to a different seder. And I felt very stark they should go to their own seder, this person. I felt very stark. When people return to their own families you go back to your story. When you were two, when you were five, when you were 10, when you were 15, you go back to your story. Your seder is your story. You're with your mother who brings you back to certain ages. You say, "What, Dad?" Your seder is your story. And I want a guy to be makabel. He he becomes a year the seder night when mamesh we're born as a people. I want him to embrace his story. Come from your story. Be connected to your story. This is your story. This is your story. And all the challenges and the difficulties and the things it brings out, this is your story. There's a certain success of a person who has steig through his story and in his story. You could trace it back to his roots. He mamesh is him. When a person's a forest child somebody like stark stark, but it's not him. You don't say fortune or his parents. It doesn't look like it came from his history. There's a madrigal of a guy who's like close to his parents. He came from his story, mamesh. His mamesh truth It's like a truth to thyself be true. I'm very impressed Yankel's relate to the chasan very very close to his parents. Like mishna they're close. And it's part of his story is kesher to his tata. The ashrei a lot of ties you come from your story, your truth to self. I think it's a bechina somebody steig People say, "Wow! Mamesh, your parents did a good job." This This is mamesh you. It traces back to where you come, to who you come. I think the success of somebody who's like close to his parents, who's plugged into the story where he comes from, is an ashrei a lot of tay. Wow. Praise where the people who brought you here. Your story is a good story. You've tapped into your story. You've gotten some places through your story in your story. It's an It's a growth that it's comfortable. The person in my mish looks like you. It's a degree of steigging that I could tell this comes from while you're true to your roots. You momish got yourself. You momish in your story. You're true to your story. That's what I hear in the words ashrei a lot of tay. We could trace it back to where you were born. I want to express that the kashrus many things to say about the chosson, but the kashrus he has this tattus of a beautiful kashrus. Like really a beautiful Father's a brilliant year to tzaddikim. And there's the There's always this There's a journey with our parents. Our parents big tzaddikim. There's a There's a story of being a tzaddik than tzaddik. But somebody who's plugged in to his story in a true and a comfortable and a beautiful way. I've watched Yaakov advance and grow in beautiful ways. So I want to wish a mazel tov to Yaakov. I want to wish you that you and your kallah should build a beautiful a bayis ne'eman b'Yisrael. It's interesting we say ne'eman. Ne'eman means reliable, trustworthy. It's ne'eman Hashem. Of course what means it's also part of ne'emanus Hashem. Should be ne'eman to you, ne'eman to your kallah. Home that's b'mishus. That's b'mishus. People get People go to chinuch classes. Chinuch has to be from your comfort space. We're all different. Should be ne'eman to you. Momish your type. It fits you. Your Your style. Your This one's a little stricter. This one's looser. But it's honest. It's sincere. It's ne'eman. A bayis ne'eman b'Yisrael. Should build a beautiful home you and your kallah. So thank you Yanky for being here. Thank you. If it was a day that wasn't sphere, I'd have you play us a song, we'd play you a song. It's sphere right now, so. The Reb Michelle, me and Yankel sang together. The Reb Judah Michelle just text me a few days ago if we could do it again. So, Yankel, we got to we got to go back there. When is the date with Gabe? It's true. But, you weren't Were you there, Gabe? So, let's do it together this year. Should we do it together? Good. Yeah, yeah. What's What's the date of the wedding, Yankel?

That might not be Is that the day of mountain biking? >> [laughter] >> Have you done the mountain biking? I shudder about that day. It's crazy. Have you done it, Weber? That would happen. She didn't She didn't have a cure yet. >> [clears throat] >> We should hold tryouts to sing by Yankel's wedding, man. We should have guys do solos. Maybe that was the first song to Does Does miss as much as we do when we pray? I miss it a lot. Keep meaning yourself. I keep seriously. What's happening here? Every other morning we do we're mourning something that's like a point in mourning. There's like it brings us somewhere. And there's yet going to be a return. There's yet we're we're like missing something, but it's yet going to come back. What's happening with this morning, Harry? We're mourning to tell me then what's happening. It's a very unusual. The base I made this is something we're craving that's yet to come back. We're When I didn't talk was was my the have a have every other morning is a very present thing. I'm saying seriously the growing the You're asking every Yartzeit. Yes, there was a child's Yartzeit. I still see the make a big party on the Yahrzeit. Hilula.

Okay so the year Yesterday I was having everybody make a chaim. This was the side of this was maybe you have to mention it was a boy's yard site. So my boy's yard site we have >> [laughter] >> This was the year of Shaya Joshua you want to go? >> [laughter] >> My boy's yard site what? Didn't already meet you? You got a block right? You were in my sight a beautiful master. You know what I'm saying it was good. We were in my sight of master that uh He said a beautiful master as follows in uh one of the great good day late uh rabbinum they don't have a place again. 130 years ago It was a dark in my show. The mean the mean catcher. Not the one that with the here Shaya how to show his father. Right? So, um and he was one of the great uh tzadikim. A lot of the A lot of the maases that surround Reb Shayala were uh involve a lot of hak that the oilam was uh whatever, either pro or against, they were curious about this like upstart. Reb Shayala was not of particularly this you know, distinctive, distinguished, aristocratic lineage. He wasn't by uh you know, uh by any standards. He was a gabbai of Reb Hershel the Reb Hershel Liska. He was a gabbai for many years. But uh you know, he it's so so ultimately but he was a tremendous nadvan. He gave a lot and he was a baal chesed. So, he you know, he started his own uh hachnasas orchim. You know, it was it was I mean it became a uh a rebbe with with Shabbos soles through the kids are The Duchi Chuvah heard about him. His yahrtzeit is the second day of Sukkos. I'm sure you all [laughter] knew that. Anyway, so the Duchi Chuvah was a uh he was passing through he's traveling and among his travels he figured he's going to stop by it was near Karasburg. He was going to stop by. He comes for Shabbos. Reb Shayala finishes uh he makes kiddush. And the uh and he he he zips through Shalom Aleichem cuz a lot of people there that hadn't eaten much. As he's uh and he's finished kiddush and he makes hamotzi. Okay. He makes hamotzi. The room's packed. Shabbos packed. And he makes hamotzi lechem min ha'aretz. Before he breaks bread he notices a yid in the back. And he motions for the Yid to come forward. And with the then, you know, with the with the heavy concentration of humans in the room, like you have till the Krias Shema happens, maybe the Yid was older, it would took it took quite a while for the Yid to make his way to the front. The back of Chuba, the Heilige Menachem Tvi Hirsch Shapiro is sitting near him getting anxious. He's kneeing and he's he's clapping because he he made a bracha. And Herschel ignores him. He's motioning for the Yid to come forward. Herschel is getting bored. Shaya ignores him. The Yid makes his way forward. And the Yid Herschel slowly, patiently takes his knife, cuts the challah, breaks open. He takes out he cuts open from the challah he takes out from the softest, you know, the white gishmaka. Who's who's with me here? You know what I'm talking about? Okay, you take from the middle, gives it to the Yid. Thereafter, he cuts himself a piece. He gives the he gives the the Menachem the head of Herschel and he gives that to the Yid. He turns to Herschel and he says, "Yeah, greatest Yeah, well, good work detective Sherlock. You're a little angry at me." He goes, "Yeah, your mouth's sick." So Shaya says, "Listen, you're a bigger you're a bigger talmud chacham than I. I want to ask you, so let me ask you a shaila. Um if a Yid has, let's say, a Yid has b'heimas, animals, that he had that haven't yet eaten, and he makes a brocha of hamotzi lechem min haaretz. What's the halacha? Who should he make Should he provide for his animals? So Rashi says, "Yeah, that's a it's a fair share, you know, halacha it's Gemara." Beheim, you have to If you have beheim, you give them food. And that's the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch. K'vodo haTorah. K'vodo haTorah is Gemara in Gemara Brachos. So Rashi says, "Tell me, would I I would think that a human that a Yid in the back of a room is as least on level of a beheima. I saw this Yid in the back of the room. He He didn't look like he had eaten recently. I saw his hunger. So I felt I he mizonei as I lay, it's it's it's my achrayis to provide for the Yid before I take myself. No? So I would think just like it's not a hefsek to say, "Let's feed the animal." L'havdil, it's not a hefsek to say, "Let's feed the Yid." The Munkatcher was so nisragish, was so nispail from R' Shaya's sensitivity. I I'm sorry. You see, I told you I'm not R' R' Shaya. And he said He said, "Okay, I'm sorry. I'm not up to that maybe." He said, "Okay, but why you like You were like getting it right?" He said, "When the Yid came closer, I saw he had no teeth, the guy. So I can't give him the hard challah I give everybody else. I wanted to give him the soft white mushy part so he could eat." R' Hershel said, "You know, I didn't even notice there was a Yid back there. There are a lot of people in the room, you know. I'm there, he's there." R' Shaya felt the hunger of a Yid in the back of the room, a Yid that I didn't even notice. That was the godliness of R' Shaya, that he could sense and feel in a in a in an in a in a practical literal sense, the hunger of a year at the back of the room. And excuse me, you're going to line me. Beautiful story. What was your answer? Like you care. Um there was uh So I was bothered like the See I was Okay, I'll ask it as a question. Why doesn't it say Reb like your own children? It only says Why is there no statement your own children also? Like let's say you have children. Are you are you that they had to to provide them before you take? I'm saying when you have little kids and you make a mitzvah, they get first? Not necessarily. No, right? Okay. So that's What's the answer? I don't know. But I was I'll tell you what I was bothered by because that same Gemara Reb Shayala himself every time Reb Zisa on the story said every time Reb Shayala would you say every time you make a mitzvah, your No. >> kids are hungry, maybe you should give them first, you know? >> Oh, I am asking. Oh, that's not a bad point. Yeah, I am, I guess. But he said you're allowed to give your animals first. And Reb Shayala is too old to somebody is the death. No, but he's In other words, this year was like very strong. This year was very strong. Right, right, right, right, right, right. >> kids is starving. You can't hold off a bracha. But to give your animals since it's the Torah of you're not allowed to eat till your animal eats. That's Reb Shayala. Reb Shayala said an incredible thing. The halacha is that's not called mitzvah. But Reb Shayala said that you in the back is hungry. So I had to wait for him, too. So he made a whole break. He's right. >> I have to feed him. So Reb Zisa said, "What about your kids? So if your kids are starving in the house Right, right. Reb Shayala, you give them >> No, because I had a question. Normally the kids are there. They're starving. Right. See I asked what cuz it says told bracha the same Gemara. There's three cases. There's real Torah available melach, the told bracha real Torah. >> he say give me Not allowed. I want I don't allowed. It's not a half sick. You know the difference you know what I'm saying? So so but that's just it. See told Brooke is not a kid. Told Brooke is not a kid. You're not to make to give a guy the carrots is if you have someone who's like on the on the on the degree of like like we don't like he's suffering whatever. So then it's a I have no I have to give him a foot. That's what I was saying. That's why he used that you heard the story of the Chavis. Beautiful story. A beautiful story should be. I mean The monk catcher came to check out. You hear listen to it. You hear the story you hear the monk catcher came to check out of Shilo. People were curious that he had a there's no swarm. What's what's his story? He what? He came he had a big crowd and he made a and before he eats you know how he have sick. Before he eats he calls you in the back. It took a long time for him to come and [snorts] he was sick and the monk catcher was upset. No no you can't be sick. So he said to the monk catcher that if somebody makes a and then realize they didn't feed their animals you to feed your animals before you eat. So somebody has a hunt has a dog you have to feed the dog before you eat. And the guy makes a I didn't feed the dog. So it's you're not eating you're allowed to feed the dog first. So he said a a hungry in the back should be worse than a dog. He came to me that I saw the was starving. So before I ate he waited till he came and he fed him. Where'd you hear this? Isn't a beautiful story? As he's passing of Shilo was almost in the next world. On his he was leaving this world. And in last with his last bit of strength he calls over the the chef from the kitchen. Put up a lot of borscht with a lot of potatoes, more than usual. Soon it's going to be a levaya. They didn't eat it. You hear that? >> That's what he said? >> Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure, sure. >> Those are his last words? >> Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Now, it's interesting that I'm forgetting the last name. I'm forgetting the last name. I forgot it. There's another maaseh. What was that story? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's on the chat. What was that story you said over from the Yid who worked there, the Yid who spoke Yiddish? You remember that? Not a Yid. A guy, a guy. Yeah, there was a guy, an Atlich Guy Gammer. There's a guy, the most heimish a guy ever met. And he's like giving like they ask him to give a brocha for Klaiza. Brocha for Klaiza, kind of broches. You can give him broches. He's the most heimish a guy. Anyways, he's whatever, he hangs around Kesser Torah, he works there or something. So, his wife was sick. He had a machla. That's not what he called it, a cancer. He had a cancer. Uh my wife had a cancer, ready? Gary and Guy. Anyways, so someone told him, "Get yourself a shaila." Guides him to the cover. Uh you know, he's a groisse baal maaseh, you know, at a funeral. So, the guy says back, "I've been a guy. I've been a shkutz. I'm telling you, you have to watch it." So, the guy So, he reported In other words, the guy is saying over the story. Says, "I you know, I've been a guy." So, the guy Yid me yeah, I can help him go and he doesn't have a choice.

And his wife was very sick. They had no children yet. So, he said he asked for you know, a few of my wife. And they went back to the doctor and the guy was saying that the cancer is nothing like it you know, and it was got slower and smaller and his wife started recovering. Year later they had a baby. They got the baby. And gave him the name Nathan Nusin. A gift from God. There was a guy in Hungary by the name Nusin. >> Yeah, Nusin, Nusin, you know. Nusin Bograch stew with ramen. Yeah, yeah.

If I told you a story, Yisroel, Chaverim, listen to this story. We're telling stories today, Ari, and I'm telling it's not Tally. Keep you hood. I want you to hear this. If I told you the following story that there was a lady Chaim, listen. Jackie, listen to this maiseh. Eli, would you believe me if I told you, Gabby, that there was a lady on the way to Auschwitz? She was in the trains. The Nazis were sending her to a death camp. And the Yidden were men of God. They were packed in the cars. They were packed. And there was a lady in this packed car. My rebbe used to give a Holocaust right parent gave a course to the Holocaust to my class. And he put us in a corner. He was He was explaining these trains, the death trains. He put us in a corner like 20 guys, Ari. And he like stopped us. We were And he had us sit like that. Like for a little bit. It was And he described being like that for 24 hours. And on this train was a cattle car. It was packed. And this lady had a little son. Everybody Ellie, listen. Yoel me, listen to this story. A lady, a Jewish lady has a little son. Now, she's worried crushed to death as many kids were. She held him like this on the train that he should survive. He knows what he's doing. And while she held him like this, she looked he turned blue in colors and he died. The kid was no longer alive. It was so It was impossible to breathe in there. She was holding him like this to help him survive. She looked at him. He was He wasn't alive anymore. She sees he's not alive. She decides Unclear exactly why, but she It's on a train. Her Her son's not alive anymore. There was a little crack in the train that a human being obviously couldn't jump out. Everybody would jump out. She put her son through the The crack of the train was going. She put her son through the crack. He's not alive anymore. She's watching her son. He falls out of the train. He falls into a puddle. He was pushed out, and his hands went up and she hops he's alive. She jumps off the train, impossible, she gets through the crack, you couldn't, but like a mother, like a mother could lift the car, she needs to be with her son, she jumps off the train while it's moving and her and her son survived the Holocaust running in the forest. >> [clears throat] >> Do you believe this story? And if you believe this story, do you believe me if I tell you that the grandson, the great the grandson of this man is sitting in this room? And hold hold saved the story is true. Now you hear the story I'm saying? But it's in the family, they know the story. You hear the story, Kiki? That a crazy story? Who do you think the grandson is is in this room? The grandson. >> [snorts] >> What's going on? >> [applause] >> DID I SAY THAT WRONG? DID I SAY IT? DID I SAY IT TRUE? Find out exact. No, I want exact. How did you hear it? Say it how you heard it. I heard it this I heard it the same way Rabbi heard it. Say say say. Um To say this Daniel learns with his Zayda. Daniel learns with his grandfather. Him learns his grandfather is my rebbe. Daniel learns with his Zayda and this Zayda's the story how Zayda survived. His Zayda always is a big Zayda, massive talmud chacham, and he survived. He landed in a puddle that revived him. His mother jumped off and they survived running. That's how they survived. In the DP camp they the people after the war were starving and your Zayda felt bad for his mother. You could ask his Zayda to try new your Zayda's mother. Your Zayda's mother and my Bubba were best friends in the world. Yeah, it was three yeah like best best friends. She was a pious tzadekes, big tzadekes. Her and my great My grandma was from Yakishur, but they were best friends. It was Mrs. Munchik, Mrs. Klein Kaufman, and Mrs. Stern were all three best besties. They were the best friends. His great grandma was a holy lady, very very holy lady. So, this this this lady Now, in the DP camps after the war, people were starving. They were hungry. There was a lot of problems. They were struggling to get food. His zaida stole a cow. They had a chech, that somehow he stole a cow from the guy. Oh, yeah, yeah. He stole a cow. He He was a little boy. He stole a cow. He describes Can ask him the maiseh, "How do you hide a cow? How do you steal a cow?" So, God says that they got good food for the whole family. >> was he saying? Sorry, can I ask you what you were saying? The The What you heard Say over what you heard. I I just heard the same version, right? What did you hear? What did you say exactly? >> it at 3:00 in the morning on Pesach night, so. Who said it over? I heard it at 3:00 in the morning, um Pesach night. Who said it over? He said it. His zaida said it. >> he say? Was there anything different there? I heard I heard that he got thrown out of the train. His mother jumped out. They were running for a couple years, or They ran in the forest. They survived the Holocaust in the forest. >> Who found them? I don't remember who found them. They were running for a couple years in the forest. Zaida. His zaida's been in this room, has spoken in this room, yet. Rabbi Klein Kaufman Talmid chacham. Yeah. Special special yid. Talmid of Rav Chaim Kanievsky, amongst others. Amazing story. Amazing. His zaida said over the maiseh? He doesn't remember it, either, but I heard I'm pretty sure I heard from the mother. I remember the And if it's not exact, I heard Mrs. Klein Kaufman say over this maiseh. She's the bottom Mason. He probably doesn't remember it this either. He probably doesn't remember it. Right, he heard it from her at the same place I heard it. have you ever heard this story? Isn't that unbelievable? Heroes. What Yidden built, what Yidden built after going through what we've been through, heroic. I had I had in ninth grade I had Daniel's Zayde for a rebbe and we loved him and he loved my class. He asked for a yeshiva, could we be together the whole four years? I can't handle I don't like in high schools that you have a rebbe for a year. Who said Who I loved that Hoodie had Rabbi Silverman for one year and he stayed by him three years. Who said to switch? Make a taste. You have a rebbe ever? Cuz the yeshiva said next grade next to rebbe. We loved you Zayde and your Zayde loved us. And then they Nate, GAVRIEL, WELCOME HOME. >> [applause] HE ASKED THE YESHIVA who was his machuten and he said no. It would have like messed up the whole yeshiva system but we we wanted to be with him for four years. Like to be with this. I learned the mesechta I learned by his father is probably one of my favorite mesechtas in yeshiva. I learned Gittin. By your Zayde. What? That I learned Gittin by your Zayde. The whole thing we did. The Zayde. That's the whole thing He's going to ask him the story. The entire Gavriel, welcome home. >> [applause] >> Maybe Gavriel Gavriel and Gabe should sing something. Gabe, you put your chair next to Gabe. You're going Two Gabes, what song do you like to sing? Great Grandpa? Which one? Do you know Ekra? Ekra. Ekra. Let's go YouTube YouTube. Ekra le le kemalia.

Yitzchak Misha >> [singing] [music] >> Yitzchak >> [singing] >> le le kemalia. Ekra [singing] le le kemalia. Yeah. >> [singing] [singing] [applause] >> Two Gabbys. Stay for one minute. Pull up a chair for a minute. Just for one minute, I want to share. Uh? Okay. I want to I want to We had interesting things we did. I just want to read We're trying to go a little bit in order. So, we learned the first two Mishnais of We learned the first two Mishnais, the first perek of Avos. I want to learn Mishna Daled, the fourth Mishna. We're holding back on Mishna Gimel, but I would like to learn the fourth Mishna Bini for 2 minutes. It's very, very interesting. In the earlier dairies, we had one leader of all Israel. In later is what we call the Zugot, they were pairs, there were two leaders in all Israel. And issue shall I am with the next leaders of all Israel. And he said I want to talk about these five words Ari. You who do I want to talk about these five words. The simple meaning your house base bad a meeting place for wise people. Your house should be a meeting place for wise people. From the ones before is Antigonus is so great. I skipped that mission. I skipped the one. But it says these two said your house should be a meeting place for Haman. Now certainly certainly always you learn simple chat. It's a big to be connected to the king. The simplest chat is a person should be connected to the king. It's funny I looked at my phone this minute and there's a picture of this year Yaakov Malone. And he used to ask my father is talking to the king. He used to always want he asked the king to wear this thing. I looked at a picture on my phone somebody sent me and he used to ask the king to come use his swimming pool. And the king would swim in his pool. He wanted the king to be in his house. There's a there's a line There's a that says all the whole world is created with to be connected to this person. There's an Indian to be to connect to the king. It's a big big Indian to connect to the king. There's such an alien of a skashrus of connecting to tsaddikim. And so when it says your house should be a base vad l'chachamim, it means simply chachamim and tsaddikim should come to your house. That's definitely a chashuve thing. This year, somebody sent me a picture 2 minutes ago out of the blue. I don't know why you'd have to look up who's sending it and why they're sending it. I think it was on a family chat, but I just got this picture I just saw this picture of of of a yid who used to ask Reb Belsky to swim in his house. A big tsaddik and talmid chacham should come to your house. Yebasecha base vad l'chachamim. For sure. We had a guy who was here this Shabbos. We had a guy who was here this Shabbos and his zaide's name his zaide is a very special yid and he used to invite my father over to play tennis. And it meant like the world to this guy's zaide. This bochur was here this past Shabbos. It meant like the world that a talmid chacham comes and plays tennis on his court. It it was like very holy to him. Yebasecha base vad l'chachamim. Your house should be a meeting place for talmidei chachamim. Certainly it means k'pshuto the simple. But I want to share another idea and it has to be another idea Ari, I'm not just stooping another idea in. It says your house should be a meeting place for chachamim. It it it could say have a connection talmid chacham, bring them to your house. A meeting place for chachamim. A meeting place for chachamim. Who said the chachamim want to meet in your house? A base vad is a place where all the chachamim gather. How many people could host the Moetzes? Besides that, you ask ask a shvua chacham ask him if he could he come to my house. A big thing. And certainly anybody could have the zchus of having a tsaddik ask Daniel zaide to come to your house. A big zach. But a base vad l'chachamim, what does it mean your house should be a meeting place of chachamim? How many How many people in Klal Yisrael could do this? It's like And if you can do it, but it's talking to everybody. We're all learning this Mishna. So, we all should call the Moetzes. Do you mind your next Moetzes meeting? It has to mean something else also. Your house should be a meeting place of chachamim. I don't want to say shlug it up cuz it definitely means as much as chachamim could come, let them come, but it has to tell me more because it says it should be a meeting place for chachamim. Sounds like there's something else being said here. What I want to What I want to say, and this is delicate, and I want to What I want guys in this Yeshiva to hear it. I want Yidden to hear it. There's a lot of tzaddikim in our people, and it's the best thing. Ari Zeiche went to Eretz Yisrael and found the Rebbe mamesh. Reb He's close to Reb Feier, who has Rebbeim with Geisler, and who has the Torah from Ishbitz. So, you mamesh found the Rebbe. It's the best thing in the world. And have a mesayarang Reb Yonah. We was zaiche, we had two chassidim which were just here. They have a chassidus, they have a Rebbe. I want to tell you I love that two chassidim came here. They They've heard about the Yeshiva. The guy said The guy I'm leaving said to me He's not It's no reason to say it. Said it's the nicest place in the world. That's the guy just said. He felt people were nice. He felt good. [applause] I want to tell you I want to tell you that [cheering] I'm I'm I want you to hear something. Your base chabays vadlacha, your house should be a meeting place of chachamim is learn to respect and appreciate what's going on in another world also. The base vadlacha chachamim is in your house, other things are welcome here. I was always amazed by my father. He the Hasidic tell me the he did not see their way a lot of their sheet is politically politically even the way ideals how they live their life. My father looked at life very different. He would help support these Yeshivas. There were Yeshivas in Israel. He raised a lot of money and he'd put a lot of effort and respected is a Talmud chacham. By my father tell me the chacham will welcome in his house. We loved always the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Reb Shach. They have different sheet is so what? In this space chachamim are welcome. Your house should be a meeting place of chachamim. Learn to respect different I I I said Yosef was not here. I'm not giving a flattery Akiva. Yosef was telling me he met a Yid who does not have the emotional awareness that's unique to our base medrish. He was a certain disconnected and he was like very impressed from the sheet he was from what he saw. And I had tremendous chizuk that he was able to respect and appreciate different beautiful ways of serving Hashem that are valid. Your base medrish chachamim here chachamim are welcome to meeting place of chachamim. Your house should be as and as it doesn't mean not to have a mesorah, not to have a rebbe, not to have a machlokes. But here other things are welcome. It's so beautiful I see two chassidim come here. I see the guys respect them. They It's us. It's all us. This is a base medrish chachamim. Here a Yid is welcome. Here a chacham. Here a loyal servant of Hashem is welcome. There are different ways. Let your house be a place that's safe for all different. It incorporates. It knows how to hold and carry all different styles. Of course you have one mesorah. It's not as opposed not to having a way, but other things aren't rejected, aren't mocked, aren't ignored. in your house is a meeting place of Hachamim. Here is sincere person and sincere Tyra here is welcome in this home to meeting places. I skipped the mission when I saw the two sitting sitting with the Hachamim. I felt like we have to learn this. This is a base Hachamim. This room is a space where we could learn. It bothers me if he comes and he's a stickle even a little clueless emotionally, let's say. And he has nice Tyra to share. We should be able to plug in and tap in. He has good things. You base Hachamim never to be so arrogant and so silly. Somebody else doesn't have that silly. One of the ways in my life that I know if somebody has truth or not. I'm going to speak about Rebbe's. There was one sir Rebbe, a guy at a Rebbe. And he used to say nobody else in the world knows how to do anything. He used to rip every other Rebbe. It turned out it was like a complete farce. It was a scam. There were like five years people were into it. It turned out I always was wary of the guy. Whenever somebody has a monopoly on truth, I don't believe the guy. You found a truth, it's great. You have truth in your base madras. Not to be aware there's another base madras of truth. Is is it's a this there was this Yeshivaish. It's called a Yeshiva also he the only truth is here. It's like so you probably don't have any truth there probably. Anybody who has truth and there's truth elsewhere and then there's there's something called Emes. You have base Hachamim. It's not to say your house cannot It should have a Messiah. Should have a way it follows, but it should be that other Hachamim welcome here, are respected here. It's a meeting place of that's the quality of the home. That's a quality of a home of truth. That's what I think is being said here. Yeah, I specifically like it. I I happen to specifically like it. This is the first pair right here. I like when the statements fit the ones who say it. This is the first and they say you have to be a meeting place. There's a lot of consensus. There's a lot of couple of and we and and there's different voices. I like that it was the first that said you have to be a meeting place. To me it's logical that the the statement should reflect the ones who say in the time that and they're always like that say and why it was said then. We said from that one before and this one that that that the they say you have to be a meeting place. I could so see see them teaching. There wasn't one of them. Like different voices. There's room for a few voices. There's room there's room to hear there's room [clears throat] to I have this kind of way people speak about with husband and wife that we have to have like a there's a word people use that we have to like be have the same voice. What's the word what's the word I'm looking for people like and wife describe that they have to like be have the same be on the like in sync they have to be aligned. People think you have to have the same as your wife. I think you're a much better company if you have two of them. You have different as long as there's respect. You're a better company if you people I've got the word the same maybe that was the word I'm looking for like when they have to be aligned. I don't look at it that way at all. What we say? I look at it it's much healthier two people a richer company and they respect each other. Your house is a base just like room in the house for another I get so not just turned off there's something about not having MS when there's not room for a different MS. It's a topic that fires me up to the end of the world. I'm concerned that Eretz Yisrael. I'm concerned we have so many stark sheetas but the other side is like wrong out There's a sheker to that. There's such a sheker. Whatever I hear in in the political arena if you ever hear a Republican guy and he calls every Democrat a socialist. If you hear a Democrat and he calls every Republican a Nazi, you know there's sheker there. Any honest person says this is my life I'm aware of a different life. I'm aware of a counter. Reb Nachman had people who were against him he liked them. Reb Nachman made such a statement I know Hashem loves me cuz big tzaddikim are against me. You hear that line? Reb Nachman wasn't joking. He said I know Hashem loves me cuz big tzaddikim are against me. It's a very beautiful thing. You're up I have one of my best things about Derems is a big tzaddik who doesn't like I'm like very besimcha. I feel oh we talk so maybe we have something we have something. If you have a light that means something there should be other lights. If there's a Hillel there's a Shammai. If there's no Shammai there's probably no Hillel. Every MS has counter as everything. So I don't I wish I want an Eretz Yisrael but I don't want to look at another yet. I want to bring this. I want an Eretz Yisrael. Why can't we be rich and we have people that fight in the army. We have people who hold us us and them and I love that. I want a people that one guy holds the surum and another guy fights. I want a people that's so broad that's so big. You have base you're a much bigger home. Who wants to be I want a people that have a Shamayim hello. Do I want to be so narrow you can't But the bigger no but the bigger the Yeshiva that's your base of the house has to be a what? So we have to figure out no without being like yeah yeah yeah I want it's like the dream is that we could like have it we could be big. Isn't that a dream? When my kids argue on things that I really feel they're like they have different neshamos and I some the best thing at the Shabbos table is like I've seen my kids gang up on and they fight and I see like different neshamos it's so beautiful. It's like a nachas Sometimes it's the most sometimes when they're arguing like in a real way and you just see different neshamos bringing different things out. It's like wonderful. Thankful a house can like hold different things. That's your base that's my message to the that's what I wanted to study today. We had a lot of detours today. Who's saying what? We have to get back to the guitars but Hashem we're getting there. Do you have a header early Joshua? >> [laughter] >> We're getting there. Today was the 19th day of the Omer. Did I get that right? You're right. Today's the 19th day of the Omer two weeks five days. So we're almost We're almost right there. What's this week the third week is what meter? Joshua So isn't that cool? What is Tiferes? What is everything is I wasn't even thinking about that. Tiferes is is both sides. Do you know what that is, Tiferes, by the way. I sham all the world. I was not thinking about Tiferes this week of yet to say. What do you think it was on my mind, Ari? Probably. Hashem puts it's Tiferes. Tiferes is that's the the most pretty. Anybody knows beauty is the any any choir is Tiferes, by the way. Singing is Tiferes. Singing sounds beauty when there's like friction, different chords, different sounds that that's that's beauty. In our people, can't we like wake up and it's good that we have different opinions and like like hold different opinions? That's what we have to get. I love you. Have an excellent day, have an excellent day. When's when's tomorrow uh What's what do you want? If if the besides in Israel, you realize that they have different I hear. The Bible stops the harvest in Israel. That's the only reason it's still going is What is this?
