Chassidus Defined - Blue Ridge Mishmar - Parshas Tetzaveh

He dressed very refined. He was He couldn't stand there should be papers like newspapers in the dorms. It's a mitzvah of like dignity. I want to share Torah that should be an illui nishama. It's interesting. I'm excited after after mashiach he's going to be proud of me that I become mashiach. He was I have early mashiach of friend. Shaya was from the first. And I I want there's a detail I want to explain when I said become mashiach. I wanted tonight explain in a kodesh that I mean strongly and I thought about and should be an illui for Shaya's nishama. I go around speaking. There's a certain mitzvah like you see going Why Why you running places? Say a word somewhere. Sitting here are your friends. We can learn Torah together. It's It's a mitzvah arrogant to speak. Mitvah somewhere there you go to Brooklyn to speak that the the whole city is full of me to come. There's all the younger ladies sitting and learning. You learn a few minutes a month. You go to Brooklyn like to share your Torah. I have a specific thing I've been running Torah people for 3 years. I want to share with my friends. There's something I'm trying to do. And say and and and and I feel like I feel that that I'm supposed to do it. That's my sense. I'm trying I'm trying to do something. I want to tell you I want to say to my friends tonight. It's a friend with night. It's Purim It's Purim. It's mashiach. Purim We're already saying I'm thinking of my costume already. Like it's exciting. The house things are elaborate. The costumes are being geared up. The kids costumes are rolled out. We're all fired up. I want to share this that it should be an illui for this precious nishama for Shaya Tursky. Should be an illui for his nishama. He's a very special person. He was He was the He was a guy learning Torah. Just fact. This guy learned Torah. Didn't come easy learning. He had a cheshik in learning. He would ride over sheer. He was lifted on the way to my sheer. He was running back on a Friday morning cuz he wanted to come to sheer. He was He was running to learn tire. It's It's It's hard. A person's on the way to learn tire. It's like that It's hard, but the neshama fear developed the things we don't know. Clearly it was be a tie. There was no It was the time that that it was nexer and shamayim clearly cuz he was on his way to a mitzvah. He's on the way to learn tire. It's just clearly wasn't nifter young. There was no zayer. It wasn't like that. This was a very the height of him when he was alive. The whole yeshiva knew this guy is different. It wasn't It wasn't a hadasha. He had a He had a You saw in his panim anybody knew people in shaya. He was a very the height of him a person. He was me this time this guy learning being a storm. Like I tell you be a mitzvah. This guy wrote over every sheer and give chizuk. Appreciated sheer. Appreciated tire tremendously. Was writing over tire. A very special neshama. So I want to share something that I've come to that I'm up tighting him in some ways and certainly chassidus and what drew us me to chassidus. And what I mean that there's no chassidus just tire as you didn't learning tire or living tire. There's no They're not branches. Tire is tire and learning tire and tzaddikim. I'm describing I'm I use the word what I'm describing. I want to say the following two thoughts. I want to Maybe we'll learn four things on the megillah, but I want to start with this. In the megillah shlaymi we're called yehudim. How do I differ? Very busy and yeah Anybody ever notice this? In the megillah like we're called yehudim. Interesting. Elsewhere we're called bnei yisrael. Our name typically is klal yisrael, am yisrael, bnei yisrael. In the megillah it's busy we're called yehudim. Do you ever notice this? Why Yehudim I say Al Kein Yehudim Purim. We're busy. It's Mamish Vayishlach Malachi Yehudim. Very interesting. We're called Yehudim. Yes, you haven't noticed that? The other names, he sends from to to call Yisrael. In Megillas Esther, we're called Yehudim. Very interesting Halacha D'Oraysa. I want to say a second Halacha and then I want to talk about these two Halachas. I want to talk about that in Megillas Esther, we're called Yehudim. One Halacha. It's worthy of thinking. Don't take my shot on it. But it's it's an Halacha D'Oraysa. Something's there. It's an interesting name. Here, we're called Yehudim. You find in the Torah Yisrael, Am Yisrael, Yisrael. Here in the Megillah, we're called Yehudim. It's very interesting. And the second Halacha, words we're very used to. Like Yehudim I say Simcha Sasson we know the Gemara Oris Torah. We know Simcha is Shabbos and Yom Tov. Sasson is Milah and Yakar is Tefillin. And we understand when a Klal Yisrael has Torah, has Yom Tov, has Tefillin, has Milah, we know these are things that Haman was Misnaged. Haman fought. Milah is Yadua Vayizan Amalek attacks the Bris Milah. Tefillin is the is the is the crown of a Yid. Amalek attacks the specialness of a Yid. Shabbos Akum Shabbos Chayav Misa. They're These are things Torah is Klal Yisrael. A guy that learns Torah is Miskayem Nafshi. These are uniquely Am Yisrael. Our unique relationship. There's a lot of Shtickel Torah. Reb Reb Reb Aron Kotler Yeshiva then through tons of Mekoros that learning began there a better of Hashem of his learning Torah. Hashem of his learning Torah. Of his learning Torah. Torah is a of every burning and many to this. But I want to ask like this a little bit I don't want to call it a sophisticated question. I want to call it an honest question. I think a good question. I'm not asking why it doesn't say they had Torah. It's called Torah. No problem. What does it mean they had Torah? You didn't learn Torah. You didn't put on to fill in. They did fill in. What's the and there was to the end. There was Torah to the there was Torah. But you didn't have Why you holding my why you holding what's this why you holding my to to the end there was there was to the end. You're saying we we kept it. It's a funny way of saying that we didn't mean well. It's a funny way of saying we put on we like to fill in. Doesn't say that it says in there was to fill in to the end. What is that? What's being said here? This this in you is is the is when I say like I found talking about this. I'm talking about this. Let's start with the Megillah's called you holding the Megillah. I want to express we're called thankers. Does not mean that we remember to say thank you. You didn't say thank you. No, no, say thank you. I always when we say that you didn't are called thankers it does not mean that with the ones always we have to teach our kids gratitude, you know, we didn't. We're called you who didn't. I I think about this time. When I when I want to be my husband my gratitude to say thank you saying my own kids don't I don't want to say thank you. This week I had two meetings that I traveled distances two nights I went for meetings. And and I experienced when somebody's in a healthy place. They say thank you. They don't have to it's not note to self. A healthy guy doesn't say note to self remember to thank when you go to somebody for a soda Daniel. You don't sit there remember to thank if you're a normal person and somebody feeds you you say thank you. It's not like note to self. It's like are you normal? If somebody hands you a thousand dollars note to self say thank you. It's that's ridiculous. Gratitude is a natural normal no kid. You don't have to put gratitude in a child mom should. You don't have to put gratitude in a child. It's ridiculous. You Emma you don't have to like Emma is this person growing Menachem you don't have to over the years Menachem inculcate gratitude into your child Menachem. That's that's obscene. A child has gratitude. That's normal. It's it's it's a basic thing for human being. They get a fed note does anybody Maybe you yell is a is a prince working with youngsters. You have to like put into the youngsters. Let's like the see Shiva are you Shiva we we inculcate gratitude? No, people are grateful. I'm not saying there's not a reminder to a child to say thank you. I'm not saying that and sign this mirror is up to me is do it and you'll feel it the such as that other men have like people like this. I am saying that when a person is in a healthy state what emerges is gratitude. Gratitude is a real space. When I was younger I I heard from a bell most or something very nice. When you say made them thank a sham don't waste the bell thank a sham for something. It's very nice. It's a good muscle. Today I ask myself what I'm grateful for. When I remember I don't like here and sir cuz what I thank for I'm trying to be honest. That's not what I'm grateful for. I want to be grateful I that's a good feeling. I'd like to be grateful for I ask myself I don't care if it keeps coming up the same things. I really want to know what's the space that I'm grateful for and I asked myself why aren't you grateful for other things? But I've got it to the search things I might as well appreciate. I manage feel good about it. I manage I manage feel good. I've been struggling with a pinched nerve the last 7 weeks and the days I feel better I manage appreciate manage manage feel good. I appreciate aspects of my body working nice I manage like we don't doesn't body works nice I manage I feel sham's kishkes can run around like I can keep up with Trevor I manage running and coming can keep up it's very good feeling. Manage good feeling. I appreciate it yeah not bad. It's getting there but I feel good I feel good. That's the answers I feel grateful. Feel grateful to run you walk in the snow and you can slide a little bit kishkes you can enjoy feel grateful. Gratitude is a real space in us. When it says we're called you who them I want to express this does not mean we remember to be grateful it's not what it means we're thankers of a sham. Our mid say us is we are bound with a sham. We're the nation that that we're so bound our very existence thanks a sham. Say thank you cuz anyway you're a thanker. You're one of the thankers. That's you By the way, when you're most in tune with self, you like thanking Hashem. That's a Yid. A Yid is bound to Hashem. IT'S NOT JUST EVEN WHEN you teach your kids say thank you, say be you. I'm You're not one of the thankers. And good as you do things right, they'll feel their neshama, by the way. They'll be thankers. They Yidden. A Yid is a Yehudi is a thanker of Hashem. That's what it It's a It's a neshama of a Yid that's bound to Hashem. We're the people who quite naturally thank. When we're wholesome and healthy, we thank. We're Yehudim. We're the thankers of Hashem. Of course then say thank you, you know, like hello. We're the people who bench. We actually are people who bench. And the benching is from the rice of the gift to bench is cuz we're people who bench. We're thankers of Hashem. It's who we are. When I say I become When I was younger, I was like trying to like to like break my Let's go. Thank. Come on. I discovered I It's like A Yid thanks Hashem That's like what a Yid is. Like that's that's If you just like feel your neshama, if you just stop If you just breathe for a few minutes, you'll see we're like big thankers of Hashem. If you like take a Yid just like like give him a little space. Stop like trying to inculcate and get him and you know, you'll discover he's a thanker of Hashem. That's what you'll discover. I I'm in it. You'll discover if you let a person breathe, you'll discover Watch your children, you know, you'll call it that big They're thankers of Hashem. I want to say we're called Yehudim cuz it's the Amalek doesn't want that there's a metzius of people that have nishmas Yisrael on this earth. They don't They say there's no such a human being a breast. You have this like treaty and this profound kashrus Hashem. There's no such thing in the world. They don't want such a thing in the world. That there's something called the Yehudi, somebody whose essence thanks Hashem. That's That's just what they are. What they do, neshama is strong. Now, doesn't mean we have a task. Of course, we have a task not to get tainted, to be true to self. Of course, be a Yid. Cuz we're Yidden, be Yidden. Thank, cuz we're the thankers, cuz it's what we do. By the way, if you see a kid not appreciate, it's not a thank you. If they say, "Well, what's happening?" Well, wow, you're really out of touch. I observe people who aren't aren't thanking. They're very They're just not If a guy is not I ask dorm counselors on a trip, I ask. I just got off the phone with I ask he did a trip. I ask which guys thanked Hashem. You think I want to like punish the guys that don't? I want to know who's like who's like hurting. If a guy is not thanking, there's something Something's like off. It's not It's not a Yid is I need to go to him and say, "Buddy, you know, you have to say thank." There's something off. There's It's like natural. And especially a Yid A Yid thanks God. A Yid is so kosher to Hashem. And a Yid's more kosher than a I don't know if that's I don't I don't know. That's not a goy's first thought. A maybe learns from a Yid and thank A Yid thanks Hashem. It's like full of gratitude. I saw this on my father, on my parents, on my grandparents. Yidden thank Hashem like mamesh. Yidden are busy. They're so full of gratitude Hashem. I've watched friends. We watch each other. Yidden thank Hashem like poshut. Oh, by the way, of course, we bench. We have a mitzvah to thank a Yid. The thankers bench. What I want to express is that the Megillah called Yehudim over cuz it's who we are. We're the people who thank Hashem. And that's the exact opposite of Amalek who don't want to That there's not a dirah b'tachtonim. You're not a people who like represent Hashem in a so tight Hashem. We're much deeper tied than remember to thank, inculcate thank you. When I say the say this is the core of the neshama of Israel. Of course there's muscle to learn and we have to remember to say thank you. You have to remember to be yourself and sometimes you have to do foolishness that embarrasses people. When I say this is and this is for muscle and for I'm just talking tired. It's important to remember neshama of Israel. I go around. I don't want to say you fart. I want to remind you that we're like that we're really in that it's you can forget sometimes. I want to remind us we're you didn't what we have who we are. Not muscle. We have to We have to tell our children and we're not being honest proper stop. We're you didn't We're you didn't We really are. I promise we're you didn't We're you holding. And it's a beginner's Malik not to have who we are. That's what a Malik does. They purposely try to cool down the bath that a person shouldn't sense. There's a you holding and there's responsibility. Act like you holding. Be true to you holding. Be in touch that you're you holding. I want to if it takes singing to have we're you didn't if it takes it's not when a change of that I'm in shy with a material of this like the prestige of you holding. You don't like when there's garbage papers in the dorms. We're you holding like he sensed with like with something different. It wasn't like it's It was that's an infringement to you holding. We're you holding. There's something different about us. I want to express that you holding has over the same to the end that was tired. Doesn't say we learned tired. We're We're shy to tired. We're shy to fill in. We're shy to me well. We're shy to show us you holding. To the end that was shy of us. I just like shy of us to show us. I watch in you show you as a guy shows he like starts like feeling of us We're like really shaya to our shira today. Remember where you heard them. You heard them are thinkers. So the day where Shabbos is the day easiest to experience Hashem. It's the one where when a person's it's it's it's beginas mikdash Shabbos. What the Beis Hamikdash is in place, Shabbos is in time. So the ones that are most like activated on Shabbos are the Yidden. We're the people where you heard them. We're thinkers of Hashem. We're like busy with Hashem. Our our our mitzvos are thinkers of Hashem. So of course we're like Yidden that with Shabbos. To Yidden that was that was a Shabbos. We're shaya to Shabbos. We're connected to Shabbos. We wake up from Shabbos. Shabbos like means something. I told the chevre it's a true story. I sent a bachur to rehab. The therapist said to him that there's something different. The therapist said to a guy, "On the weekends you're different. There's something weird." I promise it's a true story. Therapists a whole bunch. They weren't being funny. They were trying to figure it out. They said, "On the weekends you're like different. What's happening?" Therapist said to a guy struggling that on Shabbos you're different. Of course. Of course to Yidden that with Shabbos. Shabbos like does something. And I check anybody come it's very ruinous. On Friday nights in yeshiva they could do a study. You've been there. It's like In shul I say this. I say this it's just The reason I don't I say it there it's a little more raw. People are If you're in the shul if we all were to just comfortable doing anything you would see like a buzz in shul Friday night. There's something I I I can sense it if if I was locked away I would tell you when Shabbos is I would feel it. I think I would not have locked I shouldn't get locked up. I think it's partially We have We have um the Noam Elimelech and his brother Reb Zusha declared is it just our activities? What would we have? They had such a chezkah here. So I'm they're They're bigger. They're big people. I sense we would know. I'd be surprised that we wouldn't feel when Shabbos is. I think a Yid would know. People have In our history, people have gone through. I think a Yid would wait. Look, it's funny this halacha is how to count. I'm always I'm surprised. Why isn't the halacha when the Yid feels the Shabbos? So, maybe not to rely on that. I'm shocked the Yid would get a certain They said this guy This guy doesn't know what Shabbos is. And And on Shabbos, he has like you're different on the weekend. Something We're trying to figure you out. We don't know. You're different on the weekends. Why are you hooding them that it was Shabbos? To Yidden that was Shabbos. I think all this is important cuz this Amalek doesn't want this. That a people is so attached to Hashem deeply. It doesn't Of course And the reason we do what we do is because of who we are. And then we're drawing Yidden Yidden keep sha- Yidden not Shabbos. Yidden not the Am Kadosh. It's our name. Our name doesn't mean We're called Yidden. Doesn't mean we say thank you. We're thankers. That's why we say thank you cuz we're Yidden. Not we're Yidden cuz we say thank you. It's our name. Just what we are. A Yid is very kosher to Hashem. It's a bri- Anybody learns Tanya and learns Sefarim that's a neshama of a Yid. A special neshama. And he's shiyach to that. And you could plug into that. I'll be I'm going to tell you the truth. When I came here, I saw my son in shul would say shiurim. He would talk about like what we are. What is Purim? And I would like sit there and say, "What should I do? I don't know what he's saying. What should I do?" I've changed. I want to know what the day is. You know what I should do? I'm shiyach to the day. And there is activities. And there's avodah, of course. You should do everything. You should have a lot, of course. But I'm I want to know who I am. When I know who I am, sit down. Plug in. I'll be me. I'll be me and I'll plug into what I am. I'll plug into the things that I'm shiyach have Like Yidden my sire? To Yidden that was tired. A Yid mamish I have to tire mamish. He's connected to her. He's energized by Torah. Torah resonates within him. He sees his own self in Torah. He sees his own story in Torah. He has his own deep profound connection like who do my sire. There was some cut Yidden the Yom Tov and Shabbos the Yid is that in Seforim it says the Talmud Chacham's called Shabbos. I was mechaven. I met Rav Obrelander. I said to friends that I said to friends late in his life I said to friends the man is Shabbos. I saw afterwards in Seforim Talmud Chacham called Shabbos. It's another name for Talmud Chacham. They're called Shabbos. Why is the Talmud Chacham called Shabbos? A mystical Yid a mystical Yid a Shabbos. Oh you see Shabbos nice to meet you Shabbos. An emesdikker Yid is Shabbos. That's what he's called. We don't We don't We're not just keepers of Shabbos. We are Shabbos. To the Yidden that were Shabbos. We're mamish Shabbos. We're shiyach to Shabbos. We're kosher to Shabbos. We're It's very It That's why it fits so stark. When Yidden steigen it always looks very comfortable to good bechinah on somebody steigen. If it's uncomfortable you try to figure out what's happening or what's going on. When a Yid steigen it looks It looks even even it guides in learning. My father was very careful that he learned certain ways. He felt that he was rooted in pshat. Seforim talk about this. Rebbe Shmuel has Nishmas Leah and Rachel and talks about how they should learn. My father felt that his neshama was rooted in pshat. He said the Pnei Yehoshua said that on himself. And he didn't And he didn't deny other things in learning. He said that's not for me. And he mined and demanded pshat. And like was a kana'i for it. It instructs cuz cuz a Yid is Torah and there's and there's and there's cheilek. Give me my cheilek in Torah. With I've asked Yids. I like when people have their vert and their different tire. I used I used to talk to Yeshiva this. Don't say word, say your word. Rebbe Bunim of Shishka used to tell people what's what God tell you you take I knew call a turkey what I should tell you. I don't know the answer. I don't know. What I should tell you you are tired. What's being said? What are you saying? What are you absorbing in tire? I you who the Messiah to the Yidden had tire. We had our tire. The tire we wore tire. We were deeply kosher the tire. That's what I want to express in the Messiah. I want this idea and we're called Yidden in the Megillah we're thankers. Now teach your children to say name sure but deeper yet teach them that we're thankers. Make sure they know that it in this must be strong like thanks that's by the way know it yourself get in touch. Study it see if it's true. But I think you'll discover we really are Yidden. That we're thankers. That's like that's just what we do. That's that's who we are. Just being us. So that's that's that's what I wanted to share with the wow wow. Fresh marrows is really beautiful. >> [snorts] >> I asked I asked the cashier today. I asked the cashier of Shraggy that I think it's a very solid cashier. I'm not looking that somebody's mask into my blood. I don't know the answer. It's a cash I thought about the last couple of years and I'm thinking in this year certain thing hit me I have a cash on the Megillah. Yankee the entire Megillah from beginning to end is one recounting of an ace. Korea Zula hollows to celebrate Nissan and we read this this is the nice of Purim and every detail teller fits the miracle. Every subtle detail man plays in Vashti, Esther and Mordecai going through what she goes through. Every detail creates the name of them. There's one part of this I've asked big tell me the no like hey I didn't I didn't have this one part of the story it doesn't seem to have to the miracle. The story that Haman is leads and leads Mordecai it's wonderful. It's some people's favorite part of the what does it have to do with the nice? It does not before he let him we were in trouble and after Haman leaves Mordecai call yourself the same clear. It doesn't seem to have any to the story of the miracle zero so I you know the day between if if Mordecai played Haman pickleball and won 11 nothing I'd be thrilled very good day and I and I'd make the first one I drew it from an embarrassed me should have no points and I don't think about pickleball that is the best but let's say beat him 11 nothing but has no to the nice wonderful. I'm so it's like literally it's like it's what to the story. It didn't change anything. Now I want to express that remembering that he owed Mordecai something that you could say to the story. But that kind of to the story maybe even later Haman wants to kill Mordecai and wink wink Mordecai is but Haman being embarrassed and Mordecai being celebrated okay it's great. I'm so happy Haman went to the after that story before that story he wanted to kill Mordecai got covered what changed in the story a fellow. It's a fellow and the whole is story, every detail fits. You can't find a detail that's not relevant to the nice of the netzach and of klal Yisrael winning. This detail is like when people get like, "Huh, I never thought of such a good story, Daniel. Did you ever think about this, Daniel? This part of the story is like Yankev, what are you holding a discussion? It has no shiyachus to the netzach. Yes, what do you say? It's funny, there's no continuum from there. Esther speaks to Achashverosh and we say it doesn't There's no verch from there to this. It's just an I He loses 11 nothing in pickel geschmack. And then rather next day, Esther tells us it's no There's no You can't be mamshich from there. Nothing further happens. Yeah, yeah. That's what I'm thinking this year, Yankev. I thank you I Yeah, I like that a lot. I'm thinking that a lot, yes, that I look at the Avinu Malkeinu as this haramas keren Yisrael amacha. The prestige of am Yisrael and then there's Mashiach. I want to express that part of the geulah is knowing a Yid is a big thing. That's the whole story of the megillah, what we're talking about. The Yid, nishmas Yisrael, kedushas Yisrael. And Amalek defies kedushas Yisrael. Mordechai, our leader, being getting covered with haramas keren Yisrael, you're it's it is it is a yeshua of sorts. Haramas keren Yisrael, klal Yisrael felt a Yid. It's the Yid. Before there's like a Yid of Haman's gezeirah klal Yisrael, there's a there's a shiflus of a year. Haramas Keren Yisrael is a big deal. In a certain That's the first thing before not them, there's a gullah There's another gullah. The first thing is how it comes Haramas Keren Yisrael. Yidden will restore the dignity of Klal Yisrael. That's the yeshua in itself in its own right. Haramas Keren Yisrael. Of course, we still needed Mashiach. We're still in a deep hole. It was a problem, but that alone is the yeshua. A yid to know what a yid is is a yeshua already. Wow. Of course, there's another problem this and then we dive into Mashiach. There's two tfilos. Haramas Keren Yisrael and Keren Mashiach. This Haramas Keren Yisrael a yid our dignity was restored. I think so. I think that's what happened What happened that day is Klal Yisrael looked. Everybody looked and there's a big sugya. By the way, maybe Haramas Keren Yisrael caused that. Maybe that caused a a probably bevasachas. Klal Yisrael was remembered we're Yidden and then we got a tremendous Haramas Keren Yisrael is a big deal. When a yid remembers he's a yid, it brought I want to say this. People are knocking Yidden. It bothers me in two ways. That I'm scared we're human. I also don't like it cuz a yid is precious. I don't like it they say bad things about us cuz not cuz a yid is a big thing. They knock a yid. Say schlechte Sachen on Yidden. Yidden are are honest. We're the most honest people. Yidden are honest. Check ever chazal say Yidden are dishonest. It's not true. Not true. It's not a truth. Yidden are very honest. We value money cuz we actually tzaddikim. We actually value this world more than most cuz we actually hold it's a beautiful place. So, the guy mixed that up. Tzaddikim and tzaddikim minus same. We think money's very precious. We build nice house cuz it's like a big deal. When I moved to Waterbury, my wife and I bought a house from a sports writer and the house was a wreck and we fixed it up nice and I I and walked with my wife and I was feeling badly. Said the guy lived in a match when I needed nice. And I thought about it and it's partial. My wife said we have Shabbos soon this year we have like a big thing with it. You don't have the base of migdos looking schlocky. It's a big thing. We're having Shabbos day it has to has to be beautiful for Shabbos. We're going to have it has to be nice. So then we say you guys are so into money. I hear okay. Yeah, we value this world we do. But you're not precious. You're not loyal to countries anywhere we've been. We're loyal they say you have dual loyalties. The dual loyalty says to be the nicest says dual loyalty that's the problem. You serve God or else you know what God is is a rahum and and the any country that's had us has been blessed in history. It's crazy. When they knock the year whoever has us we're like we're loyal. We pay we pay tax. We're not Whoever has us given. Europe's doing without the year today. And he hits out. You guys really great trade you made you know. Two teams pardon my word sports mind. There are a lot of famous trades a team gives up like a guy who never can play and they they give and they give up a guy like who's an all star and get back a guy who can't play. The worst trade in the history of humanity. They traded the year Europe's doing very the year is loyal. It bothers me it besides this fear of the it bothers me cuz it's shacker you it's very precious. The answer to these people dual loyalties all these things. Dual loyalty they're loyal to God who teaches them mahu teaches them morality who are actually citizens who care to pay taxes. Actually citizens who care to obey laws. They're actually citizens who uphold law. I I was talking to a Yidden care safer. I was like thinking about the a big city that has no need for a police station. No, a Yid is. In our cities, the people who are living in the stick again, you don't need police stations. If a lost item is found, they return it. It's crazy to say bad about a Yid. A Yid is wild. A Yid returns things that he finds on the floors. They're more honest people in the world. If we find something, we return it. We're we're wild. We have DNA mominus that we take very, very seriously. We ask shylers and questions. We care about countries and we care about everybody around us. Go ask who says thank you. I talk about Yihudim. Go to a park anywhere who ask any honest guy who gives him the most ask in the Bronx who says thank you to some guard security guard there. The Yid's the one who every Yid says thank you, thank you, thank you. Yidden are wild. We're the ones who are thanking the most, the ones who are cleaning up the most, the ones of course. Cuz we're the Am Hashem. The first step of Yeshua's Haramas Karen Yisrael. A Sometimes we ourselves forget. So I say, Yidden are No, Yidden are wildly impressive. I promise. We forget. We hear some meshugana say something and is a Yid perfect? We're in galus. We we sometimes have a forgetting who we are. It happens. Not the typical Yidden are remarkably special. Ask any honest person who thanks the most in the park. It's It's not a question. Ask any person a tall guy who gives him the warmest hellos, the warmest thank you. Of course, anybody is just obvious. Just true. Could a guy also that's a that's a a good guy. The Yidden bring that Am Hashem. The nishmas Yisrael is a very elevated neshama. We're the thankers. We're the people who who are the who are trying to tire mitzvahs. We're people who are shiyach to Shabbos, to Yom Tov, to to tfillin, to milah. So I want to express that the the story of the Yeshua comes in two parts. That it's interesting Zera is Haman were used to the only problem is that we're going to get killed. There was a problem that a Yid was shmatter. The Yid shouldn't be low like that. We don't see that as the problem. Haman was going to say clear. The Yeshua is not just Yidden were saved. Part of the problem is he said lashon hara on Yidden. Yesh Maya Melech the same shainess. They're not they're not good for country. Haman chutzpah. That the best for our country a if the knew they would have a Mashiach shouldn't come. Maybe that's why Hashem doesn't let them know. Be a bishlechta zach. So they should know even when Mashiach comes will be good to the whole world also. A Yid A Yid is a ma'aridik mitzius. A Yid is a precious a gift. It's a gift to to lift up the world to inspire to encourage. That's a Yehudi. People forget. People mamash forget. They hear such lashon hara they forget. Then you step back you're like we're very good people. So that's what I want to express the this part of the Yeshua the chiddush. That that Mordechai is is is celebrated. You say what does that have to do with the Yeshua? It has nothing to do with the fact that Haman was killed and the gzeira clear. It has to do with you said you mamash but it has to be spoken out. The gzeira was Yidden shelved. What if we went to the party? We were so busy chashboning what's the going to think and our insecurities. We forget that we're Yehudim. That's not that's not for us. We were busy near kol am. The whole aveira of going to the party was we forgot what a Yid is. So Mordechai walking through the streets mamash bechavod gadol. That's the first issue. Ahasuerus carrying his throne. A Yid. It's a big thing. Amelech chofetz bikarov. It's it's big thing. That's the first issue. We didn't even see that as the problem. That was the issue. So, let's see it as the problem. That's the problem a shake of what it is and feeling we're so busy as the country. We look up is this the country the president's with us. I shouldn't be busy with that. That's That's to me that's the eating from the party of today. We're like so busy. We're so busy to make sure to make sure we align. It's not What are you talking? People forget there's a hoodie that I'm a sham. We forget these things. So, we're like busy checking up to make sure. Are they saying is he saying We're falling for something. There's something called a hoodie. Remember what a it is. Remember what a it is. Be true to being a it. If it sounds it's not a gift. Hashem gifted us. Let us gifted us with something. A guy is wonderful. A it in matter of fact it's a gift. It's a very big gift that Hashem the same way to Israel he made a gift to the entire people. A gift to the entire people. It is a gift. It means something. There's something called a gift to the world that elevates the world that has brought tremendous beauty to the world that respects the world that it that that's people a gift that I'm a sham. So, that's what I wanted to share with my friends. I had one more thought in the Megillah I'm going to leave out cuz it's late already. But there's what I wanted to share. If there's not if because we're we should remember the prestige of a gift to be an official to see holding a sham that was a messiah of the prestige of a mom. Dignity of a it walked around tremendously dignified. That was like that was his his messiah. It was a gift. A gift he got what a it is. I don't know what kind of soul we should see speedily in our day. And of course what follows is the coming of Messiah. Amen. >> [clears throat] >> I think I'm going to go The reason I have this thing on is I'm That's what I'm doing. That's what I'm doing.
