[Music] Welcome back to this week's Emmon inspired. So what I want to talk about really is this week's para one of the paras Bahar and bring it back to really to the beginning with Misha. So Adamisha the first man. So he had everything. Okay. Hashem said you could eat from anything you want. All you have to do is one thing which is learn Torah. You learn Torah and whatever that meant in the moment and then everything's ready. The land's there for you. All the trees are there. Everything's perfect. So now one thing Hashem told him, don't eat from this one tree. You know what happens? He ate from the tree. Nothing's changed. Now fast forward this week's para. So what happens? Hashem says 6 years worth your land, one year rest. What are we supposed to do when we rest that year? You're supposed to go and learn Torah and realize that everything's from Hashem. Work is a is a curse that Parish got for not listening to Hashem and eating from the tree that he told him not to eat from. What is the curse? There's no curse in Hashem's world. Everything's a tun everything's a way to rectify something and fix something. So what really Hashem was saying to Adam and said, "Outam, you didn't trust me. I said don't eat from this tree and you ate from it." So now you have to build trust through working. When you work, you learn to trust Hashem. Sometimes you make money, sometimes you don't. Sometimes things go well, sometimes things doesn't. That's how we really build the tough Hashem is through working. That's why Hashem is making man work right now. So then, Hashem says, "You really want to trust me? So now go back to the beginning. Rest for a year and your land will produce enough in the sixth year to last you for the next few years, and you don't have to worry about anything. And then when we get that trust back from working, we go back to Eden. We go back to Harishon where we can just rest. And rest means learn Torah, improve ourselves inside and out. And then the money is going to come. Shabbat shalom. [Music]
