Shmuel body the safer. Shmuel used to be body dick with a safer. So what does it mean that Shmuel was body dick the safer? So if you look in the first year of Gamorah, it's some form of what we know as a girl Lagra. Reading from the Hidah in his Shiyurei Bracha, the side of the brick of Yosif, and this is on that Siman Yirei De'ah Siman Kuf Ayin Tes. >> [snorts] >> Kosem Mari Kash. Nearly, the Likuli Am Mutal Lifte'ach Bi'Torah. V'Yirei Ha'Pasuk Oivah. Everybody holds that in the world of superstition, what you are and what you are not allowed to do, you're allowed to open up a safer Torah to see what pasuk you're going to bump into to know what to do. Ki Hi Chayeinu. As a matter of fact, we live on that. This is something that we're allowed to do. Meaning Torah is Chayeinu, and this is included in the fact that Torah is Chayeinu. I'm skipping a little bit. U'Matzasi Bi'Kuntres, says the Hidah, Ki Va'Siad. La'Rav Rav Bliol Ha'Kohen Ha'Kohen Ha'Rabbah Ba'Shevet Mussar. She'Kosa V'Zeh Lo Shoyna. Kibalti Me'Raboisai. Ki She'Hu Roitzim La'Asos Eizeh Davar, I was Mekabel from my Rabbis. When they wanted to do something, Va'Hoyu Misupakim Im La'Asos Eizeh Im Lav. Hoyu Lo K'Chumash Oi Arba'ah Asar, they would take a Chumash or a Tanach. V'Hoyu Posekin Oi Soi, they would open it up. V'Roin B'Reish Ha'Daf Mah Pasuk Hoyu Moitzai. They would look at the first line of the Chumash and the Tanach to see what pasuk they found. U'K'Fima She'Mar'u Eizeh Pasuk and based on what they saw, Hoyu Oisin, that's what they did. V'Nimtza She'Hoyu Misuyatin Im Ha'Torah. And what emerges that they would be Misiayatin with the Torah. K'Das Ma'Asos B'Chol Inyoneihem. And this is something that you're allowed to do. In fact, Chazal say you're supposed to be Noitel Eitzah Min Ha'Torah. Said Rav Bliol Ha'Kohen Ba'Shevet Mussar, this is what Chazal meant. What they meant was is you open up a safer Torah, you open up your Chumash, you could open up a Tanach, look at the first pasuk on the first line, and whatever that pasuk is, you're going to know Kad Asma Vasos. That's going to give you insight on what to do, and this is something that's mutar. In fact, the Chida quotes the Maharsha that said, "Ki hiya yeinu." This is mamash the way we go about our geschäft. Of course, of course, the makor to this idea is Shmuel's Memra, Shmuel badak b'sefer. Rebbe Akiva was badak b'einuka, Shmuel was badak b'sefer. The Rama brings Rebbe Akiva badak b'einuka, he doesn't bring Shmuel badak b'sefer. But at the same time, this is what the Chida is commenting, he's bringing from Kadmonim this inyan that just like we pasken, you're allowed to go to a child and say "Psakli psukei." Derech Chaim is masberes an inyan of nevuah, this is also a concept of badak b'sefer. You're allowed to open up a sefer goral ha'groh style, and you're allowed to go and try to figure out what you should do. The truth is, this idea of Shmuel badak b'sefer permeates the Torah of the Heilige Zonnenfeld Sefer. I think it's good I to talk about it for 1 second. The pasuk in Parshas Shoftim says, "V'haya k'shivto al kisei mamlachto, v'chasav lo es mishneh ha'Torah." So we know that every Yid has a mitzvah to write a sefer Torah. V'ata kishmo k'cheilaso, az o mitzvas ta'yid, it's the 613th mitzvah in the Torah. But the Torah says that the melech, the king, in addition to the fact that he has an obligation to have a sefer Torah like every Jew, he had to have his own sefer Torah. He had to have a second sefer Torah. "V'haya k'shivto al kisei mamlachto." When this person is going to become king, "v'chasav lo es mishneh ha'Torah ha'zoh." And the pasuk concludes, "V'haya imei, v'kara bo kol y'mei chayav." It should be with him, and he should read from it throughout his entire life. Just to read one paragraph from the Heilige Zonnenfeld Sefer, "Peirush, k'k'shei Yisrael b'rum ha'ma'alos." He says, "When Klal Yisrael is b'rum ha'ma'alah, az ay malcham yoshev al kisei Hashem." Then the king sits on the throne of Hakadosh Baruch Hu, "u'mishameish b'ruach hakodesh." And >> Right, in a perfect world the way the Melchizedek used to operate was and by the way, the mocking for this is right, every morning they used to come to David Melchizedek and they would tell him that right, and he would say, you know, go collect and then they would say, "What do you mean collect money? We've tried this yesterday. We tried this the day before." Right, in a We have the most and all the men and all the men would engage and they would get involved in assisting David Melchizedek. Says the same so far that's the way it was when the king was sitting out of shame when it was shown in corner that's the way the king knew what to do. He did it out of war. He did it out of war with the men. Stating that I'm number one Leila. But when the all of those things were removed. When the they have no war. When they don't have the war with the men anymore. At that point the king is no longer sitting on the same so far the same so far but he say my mom locked it. He's now a kisser my mom locked it. So the higher It's like he's a king. I'm a king of a country. Just like other countries have But the king of shame is not on that my trade anymore. It's only king of my mom locked it. It's more about the so far. The But the so far the shame on the same so far the higher so far the same so far my mom locked it. The castle is mission to write a separate so far the same so far. And when he's going to have that so far the same so far you know what he's going to do with it? The color as I call him to be safer Torah. This king is going to want to know how to go about his business and he's not sitting on so he's not tapped into the he [laughter] doesn't have the he's only so what am I supposed to do? I'm a king. I'm running a Jewish Medina. How am I supposed to know how to go about my business? The answer is you should have a safer Torah. So I want you to be with not the you should read from it your whole life. The you will read in it all the happenings of your life. Everything that's in the everything that's in the how you have to control and run this country is going to be in the Torah. The in my color by the way the I'm so attached to this in Torah I'll be here in this life. The truth is The I need to make sure that I in some sort of a lot of Torah. This is the very very end of the safer it's in the it's [snorts] on page also talks about this Indian and he's on it a little bit. He starts with a in the it's in capital the passage says come and I the Torah it was says the I'm so the Torah was what's that mean? It means I used to be a from the Torah. He said that sometimes when he needed an even though had and he had but the Torah itself was it gave him it was me it explained him sometimes how you supposed to do what you supposed to do inside and I psychologically because I have to say period the also >> That through learning Torah you're going to see your whole life. That's what it means the Torah gave me eitzes. That's the way Shmuel did it. being by the king of the Torah basically has a pussuk in the Torah. These words. Listen to these words. It says I have a little heebie-jeebie. It's not such a chiddush. You know what's more nifladig? Because so often when a person is just enjoying Torah He's a massekist but alma in the pleasures of the Torah. He's going to find in the He's going to find in the shiur of the yoma. He's going to find something that's relevant to him. He was thinking how he should write his sefer. He wanted to write a chiddush of his magnum opus. And he was debating in his head what he should name his The word of the Chasam Sofer. His name was Yair. And his grandmother that raised him Shmuel Chava. Her name was Chava. And he was thinking, you know what, maybe I should have something that has my name, my grandmother's name, and he wasn't sure. And he's standing by the bima together with the baal koreh. And he said Siman u'Milta, that's what I should name my sefer. I'm your my Baba's Hava." And he named the safer Hava's oil because of a guy named Maimonides. And then the same story says he's talking about Maimonides. He might as well be serious with the same old pay base. And the base brings in the area of the same old pay base. Because you all suck Reba office when the Reba was learning the story of office. Quran Bobby Shiva a bird is Quran came and it literally sat next to him and Bobby said he was Bobby Dick and what's like Bobby and Nicholas and he saw the Bobby and Nicholas and he was able to understand the law. We went through the grasshopper rabbi then we told the the story of Chaim and the story of the Baba Sefas the Yisroel. So you did it through Schlesinger. He sent me immediately this safer. It's the first of Yisroel because you all suck Reba office. That all of a sudden he was to the side and then the same story fears I see this in bold letters. Okay, Yisroel my son the whole year. He says things like this happen every single day. And so the same story told me it's much more like that. >> [snorts] >> Small body the safer when he goes to the same story let me open up a safer Torah and let me see what's going on over here. That's not such a dish. That's not [laughter] such a dish. It's going to be all right. So you had fun all year. But the fact that you're learning the law and punked all of a sudden something you just learned has a shock to your life. Something that's going on in the world. Something that's the game to you. That's like that. That's incredible. Or it's something in the same story or the same story was like he's not 100% sure what to name the safer and all of a sudden he gets up and he says, "Oh, my name is your my grandmother's name was Hava. I'm so much because she raised me." By the way, in the same story so the same story he tells the story of why he named the safer same story. Incidentally, I saw Schlomiak going by the same story. He has a book in the back of the same story on this line in the same story with the same story and he actually asks as a because the same story has a whole lot of in the same story. He talks about is it appropriate to maybe name a safer after a woman I mean it's his grandmother but he's throwing his the name into the name of a safer and he says it doesn't bother me he said because the great guy in the Megillah of Esther that's the person on the side of the mitzvahs he was one of the guy in and the Megillah of Esther writes that he's naming the safer Megillah of Esther because his mother's name was Esther and was also that the night of who the name this safer of the nefesh that's why it's called because his mother's name was and he was giving a dedication to his dedication to his mother we've mentioned of my goal is a safer nefesh that he wrote was dedicated to his first wife whose name was but there's a lot of this but the bottom line is he doesn't bring the story he does not in the read the story that he was called up for the and they called this is a and the I'm sorry for but the bottom line is that the said that the fact that was the safer when he's doing it he said that's not the biggest in the world what is a is that sometimes it just happens and then he said he said that's what said I don't know what it means to that I'm eating from the I'll be the even when I did it I'm just enjoying I'm just sitting having a over even then it's guiding me and it's telling me what to do the great ones used to marry what they were learning to what they had going on in their life and they actually took it as a sign they took it as a sign and the teaching us that you don't have to do the grow but there's an idea of even when the I don't know even then there's a of I mean I lost count, but the amount of times we've had in this cycle of Daf Yomi where things that we were learning and how they coincided with what's going on in the world is staggering. It's already past, I think, what you would expect just statistically, analytically to happen just because it's way, way, way beyond that. It's absolutely fascinating. And this is a real Indian that's very much based on a on a one line in today's daf. It's something that's based on the Torah of the Chasam Sofer. Incidentally, this Indian, this taich of a Korban Korban Mincha of Chasam Sofer brings already in the P'sukei Chochma. So, this made it to the P'sukei Chochma, which we know were the things that the Chasam Sofer used to always talk about. The things that were Maggid B'Pum so much so that the Chasam Sofer writes in the Hakdama that any person that sits down to learn the P'sukei Chochma, if you knew that that person is not going to see one thing he didn't already hear come of a come of a pum pum cuz everything there was M'laveh this was his whole life. But this was one of the things the Chasam Sofer used to always say. The Hoyo K'Shivto Al Kisei Mamlachto B'Chol Sh'Lo Mishnaso V'Im Lo B'Chol Y'mei Chayo. Not B'Chol Y'mei Chayo, you should read from it your entire life, but you will read in it your entire life. Everything of your life, any decision you're ever going to have to make, these are things that you're going to be able to find in the Torah. The posuk says it by the Melech, the Chasam Sofer said it's true for anyone that learns Torah in the Richtige Weg. There's an Indian of Shmuel Bodik B'Safra Rab Yochanan Bodik B'Yanuka V'Im Lo B'Chol Y'mei Chayo. And even when it's not B'Kavana, doesn't you have to have the special Godol HaDor Chochma and do it in the right way, you know, B'Lail Shimu Ram standing on one foot. The Chasam Sofer said Gam Zeh Sh'Shua, even when you're just enjoying Torah, Anshei Atziosi, you're going to see the Chasam Sofer going to talk to you through the Torah. The Chasam Sofer is going to be Madrich you. The Chasam Sofer is going to give you which is talking to have a time of this and time of this and to be to see the of the Torah the guiding light of the Torah. It should be and you should see.
