you're listening to the 137th edition of the we podcast and the py that we're about to study together there's really a lot on this PK and the concept is so deeply important that I expect that we'll spend not just this week but also next next week exploring this PK together the PK is in chapter 32: 10 of Psalms it says the evil person the wicked person has tremendous or many many uh tremendous amounts of pain or many things that cause him pain somebody who trusts in Hashem he is surrounded by kindness okay so let's look at this together in the in the in the most simple understanding of the PK I'd like to point that we're gonna we're gonna have we're gonna have a whole discussion now which has to do with if a person is a Russ and he trust in hem we spoken about this in the past but it's important to go over this and I'm going to elaborate very very uh very soon as to why when a person is a Russ let's say they're Wicked and they trust in hem does there be Talk work can a person who's Wicked trust in Hashem and see the same miracle that a righteous person who trusts in Hashem will see does that does that work but I just like to point out before we actually start the discussion that the simple understanding of the vak is that a person it's it's it's a contrast it's a contrast between someone who is wicked and the wicked person is the opposite of the one who trusts in Hashem and what happens to someone who trusts in Hashem he is surrounded by kindness which means the natural state of a person who is the natural state of someone who trusts in hem is that they don't have troubles they don't have pains or perhaps we could say they don't notice the pain they're busy either being mtic Hashem you know saying how they deserve it or they're busy saying how Hashem loves me and it's for my best or they're not even noticing the pain or really ideally nothing bad happens to them because when a person is in a true relationship with Hashem so then they're surrounded by kindness that's the is coming to say as opposed to a wicked individual Wicked individual has a lot of pain a person who does not trust in Hashem a person who doesn't have a relationship with Hashem so they pain their pains are many there's a lot to complain about nothing's ever good enough because even the Small Things the small pains are enough to cause the Russia to complain now that's the in in what I would say in my understanding is the the simple understanding of the verse and we're going to discuss how it's saying according to many opinions that even a Russia even a wicked person if they trust in Hashem they also will see kindness from Hashem and it's an important Point why is it important because the the alar of naric is is one who stresses this point and the reason is because he doesn't want us to ever fall into the Trap and think that we can't have B for any reason the altar of naric makes it a cardinal sin to ever think that you can't have you can always have you can always trust in hm and hm will always answer your will always come through that's the rule of the altar of naric so the alar and the veric wants us to understand and uses this to bring it across that even if a person thinks they're not worthy of being of of Hashem giving them what they ask for or what they need or what they have B for never make that mistake even in Russia a wicked person and none of us are R none of us are wicked but even a wicked person who trusts in Hashem truly trusts in hem as we'll see even such a person their will work so I don't have to worry about my my can work let's see this together the first thing that he brings is the which is the says the Mish the evil one the wicked person has a lot of pains because he doesn't place his trust in hasem so he has a lot of troubles but if he places his Trust inem he'll be surrounded by kindness in the name of says a wicked person even if he's wicked but he trusts in hem be surrounded by kindness his will work here he brings in the notes a lengthy discussion of this idea and he brings the opposite opinion which is says this is in somebody trusts inem a person who trusts in hem has talk but at the same time he defies God he works against God he doesn't fulfill the T Etc what a foolishness this is how weak is this person how how dumb is this person certainly somebody who transgresses the the laws of hasem and his Commandments right that person say will be disappointed the person who defies God who doesn't fulfill hm's will and he has it's not going to work says when when he defies him that's not you can't be called you can't be called somebody who trusts in if you also defy God that's what that's what says we're going to see the G which is going to be brought in the saer itself it's later on in a different the magish that we just quoted is explicit not like it's explicitly not like I would like to add says the of the I'd like to add a few different sources for this idea the leam writes leam is the grandfather of rash he writes that in regards to the the generation of the Wilderness the the the generation that was in the in the midbar for 40 years the the verse tells us they did not believe in God's wonders why didn't they enter the land of Israel why were they stuck in in the in the Wilderness of 40 years and this is important for all of us because there are a lot of people who are afraid to come to Israel the same fear that how will I make it there will I make it there financially how will I make it there for my kids but that was the same fear that they had in those times they didn't believe in God's Miracles it doesn't mean that it wasn't heaven forbid and this is true about anybody today it's not forbid because they have there you know there's something bad about them they they felt they didn't deserve it they weren't good enough for it but they made a terrible mistake nothing can stand in the way of your nothing can stand in the way of like it says in the T that we mentioned he points out something which is important that when a person is wicked and they trust in hasem the truth is that there will work but there's an important important caveat and that is that in the end will collect on that which is owed by the person who did something wrong where that person has not the person hasn't repented having forbid from the sins that they've done against God even though they had be which is a very nice thing a beautiful thing an amazing thing one of the most exalted things but the person still needs to repent from their evil ways and if they haven't Hashem will will find the moment when it's appropriate to to pay the person back for their sin could be the wouldn't contradict this meaning is saying that a person who trust in God with they're evil they're a fool they it won't work it could be that what he means to say is that they won't get out of having to pay and maybe it's not exactly saying that their won't work in the SA miss of Aon which I believe might be Baron Cutler he discusses this difficulty he says like this that it's clear he brings verses he brings the and he says how brings M sources from that person who's Wicked cannot trust in work points out that we find says that works for Russ it could be that when we bring the verses that show that a wicked person the does not work listen to this a person who quote has but at the same time he does something which shows that he doesn't really have he does an act of wickedness which shows that he doesn't have B for example he steals from somebody and he has B that he won't get caught hold on a second if you're a person who had really trust in Hashem why are you stealing you have be talking you know you'll get the money in a in a in a in a way that's what that's permitted if you can't have then you're going to get the money in a way that's permitted your doesn't work it's it's it's a joke is a joke it's not real that's what Miss says that's according to him that's what it's talking about in for example a person is dishonest he's wicked in his business dealings right why why is a person sitting in this area because he's he's trying so hard to get money he trust this is how he's going to get it he that's not real because if hasem wants to he doesn't have a problem to give him the money in a in a permitted way but if his is real so he can he can have a wickedness in a different area and still has been work in this area like to read one more little thing inside of this note wine in his safer called he says as follows he brings and then he says as follows all of the other came after the they disagree with him if a person is wicked they could still have he BRS BRS even though a person deserves to be punished for their wickedness and there's no who doesn't is not he doesn't give up on the the fact that the person needs to under go some kind of punishment for his for his uh sin without without his chuva unless he does chuva but this is the facts this is how created the world he he programmed the world in such a way that if a person turns to Hashem he turns to the above so M can I get me the measure for measure Hashem turns to him so if it's possible for this person who is wicked even though he's done such terrible things he still has full in he still turns completely to God he understands that God is different than me a human being can't be Cil somebody who does something wrong to him and then and then turn turns around and says please help me a human being can't be can't can't hand handle such a thing but God can and if this wicked person has the depth of understanding to turn to Hashem and and and and he knows that God wants to do good to him with a with a with such incredible love such incredible patience despite the wrong and despite the fact that it'll be paid back for the wrong this is deeper than the normal ways of judgment even of justice and this person stands himself up in front of hasem with just Simplicity and and he goes in a way which is not so intellectual so according to this so Hashem will interact with him in a measure for measure way such that this person will receive tremendous kindness doesn't mean he won't end up paying for the sins that he's done but a wicked person can and certainly we who are not Wicked can trust in hasm even when we've done things wrong even when we've done things that seem to be terribly wrong never give up you can always turn to Hashem incredible so encouraging so beautiful Shem is our parent he loves us so much let's see onwards this is in they said as follows interesting in the med in this med it says even if a person was a Russ but he was he repented will receive his repentance right let's read the verse again the wicked one has many pains has much pain understands the mag but if that same Wicked individual changes he does chuva so then and BEC somebody who trusts in hasem so then he's surrounded by kindness and I would say that that's what that's what B does B brings us back into a relationship with hm it inspires us to want to do chuv for the things that we've done wrong but let's see how Ral understands this m right he brings the M that the first M that we brought which says that even a wicked person who does doesn't doesn't say that they did chuva just the fact that they trusted in Hashem they'll still be able to receive the kindness who perish he explains and the one who trusts as opposed to one as opposed to and a TR and someone who trusts R the so we're understanding that it means that and such a person who trusts meaning a wicked person who trusts if they trust in hem which means that they repent as this me says so then they'll be surrounded by kindness so it's a slightly different understanding of the me than we've seen until now but the idea is that the the the person who recognizes in himself that they're not good that they've done wrong but I want I want to sh to help me or I want have a relationship with hm I recognize my mistake I want to be better I want to be greater reconnect to be reconnect to Hashem reconnect to our relationship and then will be surrounded by so much kindness by so much good from hasm thanks for listening we see you again next time
