CHAZAQ's Torah Talks #32: HaRav Reuven Feinstein

a very special edition of Tuesday's timely Torah talks kazak's Tuesday program with special guests tonight we have with us a very very special guest our Moreno verbino going on removing fine since what an honor and privilege it is to be over here and to uh talk Torah with the Russian Shiva and uh we'll jump straight into it baby good you have the comments okay so uh the first question for sushiva is that people always wonder what it is like being raised in the house of the Guadalajara where when she finds at all did uh you realize who your father was or since you were born into it it felt natural so you answered the question but with the second part of the question you answered the first part obviously and that my father was my father and I had no other father so I couldn't compare one to another so I can't tell you what it was supposed to be right if you tell me things that happened by you that you think were good and stuff and I'll probably tell you a better story a little mice if you're telling me uh what did you see special with my father you know again you have the father right so more your fathers were like that and that's how I assume so and that's why it's a question she really has no answer I hear is there any one incident that the Webbie remembers of emotion that stuck out uh one thing that I that I haven't ever been able to duplicate and to understand how we did it that I can tell you that he would be writing all day I don't have remember him actually learning he used to write all day and uh for unless he had to go away and do something for class so my life is riding and if somebody would come in no matter who he would sit up in the middle even the middle of a letter he would stop writing and he can talk to the person an hour two hours and as soon as he finished he'd go back exactly for that letter and continue to write I if you'd interrupt me while I'm writing I just thinking wait a minute while I finish the thought or I'd say oh we was I up to him or anything he didn't have that problem wow I believe this is writing the egress Moshe or whatever he wrote before he wrote okay amazing unbelievable so uh Russia what does a Russian Shiva think is the biggest challenge in today's generation what does Russia think is potentially the solution to this challenge I think every generation not even every generation I'll tell you every five years probably there you're dealing with the different uh problem that exists in the children whatever it is the problems I had when we started the Yeshiva 55 years ago and like the problems we have now you know definitely different problems and therefore I can't even give you an answer for that for that thing you're asking what's the biggest thing it usually is have caters that we have nowhere to spittle that we have we feel that there are to be disrespectful to something you don't believe in or something I'm not talking to disagree I said to be disrespectful to the people and I think I think those are the things we have to and get people to understand how they're supposed to behave and it's always be showing and everything will be showing not not for controversy let's think that the fact that we disagree we definitely disagree and we will hold our our bad power places whatever you call it there when I disagreement but but I don't have to belittle anybody you don't have to put that down so you haven't get anybody inside it's not going to help anything and you know he's a case and when I used to just be a little they're here that's right that's right okay amazing how about the matter of uh of uh technology and uh the challenges in in that in in today's society a big problem it's uh but and I'm gonna wreck it that we did this before citizen Club uh you know this is and maybe it works I can't answer the people I know it doesn't work for especially now that we came into the thing the whole idea of Zoom which is very important or gives you all might give Shield monsoon and uh that I didn't give for years because I'm without a neighborhood but now that we got used to zoom so now all of a sudden the money I'm living a different neighborhood but still you got you're right about to say yes so we have ishia now where we shot this night to the east side uh because why not what you can do it on Zoom so obviously tremendous thing technology technology was not invented so many should technology he didn't make it for the Schmutz he made it for Taylor if we reduce it to technology that we have how much table we would be Shiver I don't remember where but somebody would probably find if they know she was writings he wrote that it's so easy this is before before in fact the what we call the internet uh it's talking about probably videos and tapes and that so he said it's so easy to learn in our time in the world it's so easy to learn who's going to do whatever's so maybe that's what happened with the internet if the internet was not made for Schmutz we have the owner to use it we have to learn how to protect ourselves from it uh well I'm personally working on it with a group if I tell medium and they're saying you're trying to get legislation to the fact like England does that you uh that you don't that they cannot put something on the air without your distinct approval under By Request not that this leak it in and that's a rule in England by the way wow you can transfer to here would be very good to help us in that in that part but otherwise but there's a lot of things on it even what we call kosher things are going to be enough to revital people for money that's a problem with everything we the whole world is a world of people so how do you get the guys to learn so obviously it takes work and take conversion getting convinced so why not give me and if it's the internet in life life is the same thing amazing relationship amazing how did the Russian Shiva actually debut the mods of in America the value system in society is being trampled and also there have been surges and anti-semitic incident since uh had had to crossrochiva's mind that maybe people should consider making Aaliyah to hurts Israel if you're able to find which I was so why don't I go because I have a job here they didn't have a job exactly would go but you have to understand to look for the for the warning signs I don't know the warning signs yet uh obviously the Democrats are trying to use uh their time in office before to make the world change the whole country the whole value system of countries the education system everything is there uh so many they can't do it they could be too much opposition uh what will happen even if let's say the Republicans win the next election will they make restrictive situations that they that this can't happen again and in either case we get to one in the middle so maybe have you everyone should have their passports in good condition absolutely amazing okay let's receive unfortunate America there's millions of our fellow brothers and sisters who are losing their Jewish identity and melding into the secular culture unfortunately what does the Russian Shiva believe is the most important ingredient in bringing our fellow Jews back to their father in Heaven belief in our father belief they don't believe there's nothing they come back to and how does rashiva suggest viewing this belief onto the secular Community or those that are far from yiddishkai a lot of work no matter what however I will give you one of my books and that will be great for you to see what Potter work is it's only volume one okay I think this is over here okay amazing amazing you use it why not uh it leads me to our next it takes it takes time I uh leads me to our next question baby has a hill-based matter she never break him that are involved in our Outreach work with public school students and the question pops up many times what is the proper balance of investing time learning in coil to invest in time and Kiev and bringing others closer to Hashem is there a formula for this and I just saw also the rest of shiva's beautiful Yeshiva here Yeshiva Staten Island over here the buck room and the operating sitting learning about Smothers so what is the right balance it was Shiva hell that everybody's entire has to just like just like some of money he give myself time most of time does not mean uh let's say there's 20 hours of the day 24 hours in a day suddenly I got to give you these four uh Four Points something hours uh that's an awful at a time it wasn't too much what it means is what I think it means is certain which amount of time is necessary for Panos right normal person when you say how much time free time do you have or free time it's a different story now I have to sleep after that and I have to work so how much free time you think I have in a day four hours a day three hours a day forever is the same thing on the first Sega the second say that approximately the third thing I do have been as dollar counter foreign [Music] message that we could give to our broader audience the guns and Claudia to everyone watching what is Ruby uh want to leave us off with it's a tough question and I the only thing is I'll give you what I thought you may have been wanted and I don't know why I thought it and such as or it may be a next group coming about hesit is that uh that we Avril mavino was the Abacus I want to just shortly explain their has it you have a big cashew [Music] came so what happened was that he was uh he went and he served them and did well yeah then became he he got out of bed he was able to overcome his weaknesses and stuff wonderful got one cashier how come there was no bread in the house I ain't having my house if anybody would come in and say I'd say would you like something to eat you like something to think of in the frigerator I have cake I have something definitely something like North Front Teeth right you have nothing in the house I have to just wake up my wife and so I can go make a plague and then what does he do second thing he runs out and he goes and he gets knocks okay very nice you can make me a flacier Camille you have to shift it you have to skin it you have to chew it you have to table it you have to cash on it because he right after that then you have to cook it what about five six seven eight nine hours how many hours you give me physically myself so what kind of acid is that you know um yes nine hours before he gave me some teeth it says the difference and give me two scenarios one scenario is guy comes B7 a side hospitals near the Shiva and which is a former hospital so that kosher food so all the doctors are for former people and for to babies we go to that hospital so they they go to the hospital but the game Shabbos they can't take any food with them what they do so they don't have to really walk down to the shiver which is about a mile away and all the engagement with whatever place is there and he said where can I get a meal for Chavez some little bite me so maybe it's like shamans will find you a Guardians yes it shows the guy comes takes his house in that house they sat down they had five types of meat a shot of fish and that is not an exaggeration because I have that sometimes four types of soups that I don't have and equal five types of six types of meat that I do have and the desserts I mean that you can have you know ice cream and fruit and and different types of poison food and tremendous right okay that'd be another scenario scenarios haven't seen a person like this time oh you weren't here when the problem before that hasn't been here in 30 years I haven't seen them so 30 years so that would be let's say it happened you got to come to my house what do you want for breakfast I'm gonna go to the the pizza store where you can get there I got a vegan uh what do you call it the coffee in the vanish now you got to come to my house take them to my house meanwhile so I'm going to tell you until Sunday and see if we go for the shopping store for the bathroom so I wake up my wife and I say my friend I just met her by dabbling uh you know I'll make them something to keep him busy while I land in share with my scrambled eggs some other thing there but you got to get up make something special for him well they make me feel yeah later minion you go down go over to this to the appetizing store and get every type of fish there is there yeah once you get every type of bagel every type of thing then bring it up and he's packing all the stuff in and this guy never ate so much in his life and he says to them whatever we made for you it was only because you know we're just rushing wasn't done with plans come up for supper please we're gonna serve you roasts you haven't eaten in years and you're having your life baby okay but he comes until both guys come and tell their wives what happened my number one says by what happened they didn't they uh they eat well in that house didn't say they made it to me nothing was made for me ready for the house I happened to partake of it they eat well in that house the second guy says they didn't know what to do for me which guy felt Muhammad first to the second the second obviously so that's the whole point the Bible wants him to feel special I made it for you so now what would be the problems what I serve them I serve him the milk and the cream but my problem it was ice cream I don't know what they had in those times and they and that they had to keep them from me oh well meanwhile I'll give them whatever I got I was gonna give him whatever pancakes whatever she was making for him and then I'd like up the steak will be ready for him and whenever they're waiting for what happened to me they had a shortcut but when I said I would have been would have been pretty good that's what he wanted he wanted to show it was for you you're a hardship a person you're not a nobody you just happened to come in I happen to have some cake in here so I have some cake doesn't mean anything it's nothing personal about foreign state of millions of our volume probably not going to tell you about my husband and he's probably has to have a strong hand right he's a big guy and she's three years old I don't care if they look 20 when they when they stopped growing because everyone made the union raging but whatever you can tell me they made before YouTube already so maybe it was aging already but you can tell a three-year-old and a 20 year old right 100 year old there's something to it that this will be a little different than the look no matter how tall you are on the line that you're looking or whatever so this big guy comes over to this little girl and he says the I would like you to give me to pour water into my mouth and say again loan me a picture so I can take a drink and wash it out I'll reserve it to you didn't say this but the wrong way you would ask it for right or they say I want you to put water into my mouth and then he's expecting father to say also um so what does she do she first gives them to drink when he finishes drinking it says then she offers for the camels luckily finishes I think what it means is you know you may come up with like a buoy so if you're a bully people agree to do a lot of things for you I'm not scared of you I don't agree to do things for you I finished and I was Mr bully the only way you're going to drink is because I'm going to be brought into your mouth how are you going to do this without putting it like this how are you even know if she he must be that tall and she stand on the stone I mean maybe you want to lie down on the floor you want to get on your knees how are we going to do this and then so whatever it is it that makes sense but that's the way you want it I'll go for you quickly we'll solve The Bullying situation immediately instead of telling our kids that deep shot is that uh you want a kid though and uh don't when don't let anybody take advantage of you when you go to school so what is the guy being me becomes the bully because I'm not gonna let anyone take advantage of me but how do you stop people doing that because I'm taking the antigenous and then they won't take advantage of me so it's that creatively I'd say you want to be a bully isn't they talking about physical talking about bullying they want to be the bully or greatly good for you Mr Bully Now how does the bully feel he feels like a jerk I mean they think these guys doing it because because I bullied into it I don't feel good that's risky it also has said yes they kick out he had a very successful year of email tells him to leave meanwhile before he does that they the the wells that he had from Aveeno they filled up with sin right to open he moves away because the knuckle glow and what does he do he goes back and opens up all those wealths and goes and then goes to his own place to find worlds why do you do that they hate him I know you need the water the only reason you didn't want to get rid of me okay but now you need good water I'm gonna go give you a recipe that's what we have to do about it those are the three Hudson with the good word the thing make people feel good that's the main thing people feel good they come friendships it becomes a great thing marriage is a wonderful thing make people feel good amazing wow the final message everyone should get involved and make others feel good that's for sure that's for sure amazing if you end over the bracket to all the viewers everybody my name is thank you thank you thank you
