welcome back to our Tuesday Lunch and
Learn and again we welcome everyone to
join and participate Tuesdays at 12
o'clock Eastern Standard Time New York
and we hope to utilize this opportunity
together to touch on some aspects of
terah things relate to personal growth
ways to develop ourselves as as Jews
develop our personalities and come
closer to Hashem so as always you know I
welcome your comments please feel free
to unmute yourself any time and and jump
in and ask a question and be happy to
address it or if you don't feel
comfortable asking a question just you
know send me an email and I'd be happy
to to respond to it either as a group
type chat or or privately if you'd like
but in case I I welcome everybody
participation always and and I'd like to
hear what you have to say about these
particular topics so with that said
let's take let's go back in time to
parshas told us and actually what we
read not last week two weeks ago and
parshas told us we're still exploring
the safer of the book of Genesis the
book of righteous so I'm gonna be
jumping a little round in gracious
different topics so going back to the
opening line it says something very
strange and I'm gonna read the opening
pasok and then take you through it a
little bit and see if we could work it
out in in part she's told us who this is
as follows it says either total Seahawks
been Avram and these are the generations
of Yitzhak son of a Brahman Avram holy
this year stuff I really gave birth to
who to get stuff that we know but yet
skok been Arvind Shana back octo is
rific Abbas purser rumbling baton of
Rama and the in stock was 40 years old
when he took his wife Rifco she was the
daughter of basu L Romney from the
Armenian meet Madonna ROM from the place
were on Iran I was lovin she was a
sister of love and her rummy lo the Isha
and took for him took her for a wife
then it says the yachty is suckish M the
no Harish doe and
it's her parade sort of facing his wife
Kia Currahee because she was barren she
couldn't have children the otter Louis
schember terrific oh each toe shall
respond to him photography each toe and
rifki conceived and we know that the
children whom she conceived were of
course
Yaakov Anissa so just going back for a
moment it tells us that rifka was barren
but she couldn't have children which
seems to be a commonality by the way of
many of the Mohave no sorrow was barren
Firth til she was 19 you know that's and
we know that ruffle I had a very
difficult time conceiving and you know
because one of the reasons because
Hashem loves that the feel of subsidy
cam wants prayer even sometimes with
holds back things that we want so we
should utilize that which we want as an
opportunity to get close to him but the
verse is very interesting it says that
first of all it tells us who she was she
we know she was but forget another
description who she was she was a
daughter of Bethuel the soil was a was
her father was a not a good person as
his name indicates his name in the case
the idea of the two loved Eva which
means them she's virgins indication of
the type of tire on an inappropriate
desire that he had and acted upon here
her brother was lovin a rummy love is
constantly the word white to be mob in
and and we say that when you embarrass
somebody you ma be the pinnacle Vale
Barabbas you white in her face
apparently he was called love on white
because he was someone who did not have
respect for the creation and would cause
embarrassment to people so this type of
family which were getting another look
at the family which she comes from and
then it says we got to use calculus
chemin o'clockish doe and the o'clock
starts praying for his wife why because
she's barren so apparently another mid
Russian that said that she was married
very young that that she was maybe three
and maybe that's for another discussion
but the marriage wasn't consummated
apparent until she was of women.the age
12 or 13 and then another 10 years went
by and there were no children so this
juncture there's reason to believe that
it requires extra to fill out that the
Shem is not allowing it to come
naturally as it were but needs an extra
degree of divine intervention of course
in all children are a function of divine
intervention but apparently needs extra
to fill out here extra prayer and we're
told that the otter get Scottish Emlyn
no car keys though so the dude's clock
started diving to a shams that that is
why she conceived it says that he's the
no Callisto a foreign language that he's
somehow he's not with her he's like
opposing her he's he seems to be facing
her he's he's not next to her why Kia
car he because she was barren via
Turlough a Shem and Shem responds to him
but our if Koresh dog and then finally
Rivka we know conceives let's just take
a look at Rashi for a moment and Rashi
we know when we speak about Rashi we're
always speaking about rev Rev Sloane by
his sake the 11th century commentator
was probably the classic commentator on
Altera and what Rochester
self-proclaimed mission in in writing a
commentary on Hamish is he's looking for
hints in the text which merged the Oral
Law in the written law together if
something is unusual in the text or
something is it doesn't fit in syntax or
some extra word or something that for
him is a point to say where does the
oral law comment how can I explain the
full picture what's going on here
because we know that the oral law and
the written law really work like you
know hand in glove you need you need you
need the oral law to explain what's
happening the written law and Rossi
suffered admissions to try to give you
the simplest explanation that they can
and usually based on mid Russian or a
different place in the Talmud and
everybody could splice together so to
speak the written oral law so Rashi
comments and he says what does it mean
that Viette are yes luckily Shem Noah
feasto and it's not was diving to a
shaman no Huff each Toso facing his wife
so right she says homemade pizza Bisou
Bisou father was old - for something so
miss Burrell Ellis calling from the
braces robber that he was standing in
one corner and praying and she was
standing in another corner and praying
that's kind of interesting maybe even a
little bit strange you know we know why
your husband and wife's are standing in
in different corners of the house of war
likewise you know he's in one corner
she's in the other corner
why don't they stand next to each other
there's no reason why a husband and wife
can't stand next to each other when
they're davon Inc it's it's in the
synagogue obviously we have to have a
pizza and separation but at home there's
no such rule and maybe this is a higher
level perhaps but it's uh it seems very
intentional and and very dramatic and
something which maybe isn't necessary
yet the toy records it and and Rashi
tells us it means that he's all made
bizarre exhume he's staying in one
quarter and she's in diving and she's
dead the other corner Dominic and then
the verse says something and this is
really want to focus on right now it
says viatra in scala shellfish tokyo
Currahee we are too low hashem and a
sham responds to him so let me read your
ration to hear Rashi again is quoting
the c'mon you vomit tough summer 2064
stay tuned or sages why does the Torah
tell us that Hashem responded to him
this is lovel Allah to him and not to
her she ain't DOMA to feel excited Ben
Rusch of the Fiat cited Ben sonic
because he can't compare the prayer of
exotic Ben Sadiq a righteous person is
the son of the righteous person to the
prayers of a Sudeikis Mouse Russia to a
our girl the situation a woman who is it
today kissing or a right righteous
person but the daughter of such an evil
person to soil you can't compare the two
ain't no DOMA that the Fila of Yitzhak
the Fila of
rifka why because he's exotic Ben Sadiq
his father is Avram the illustrious Aram
and she although she is she's an
enormous a great woman but she comes
from a terrible family and if we can't
compare the two felis the two prayers
and Rashi concludes by saying Athena
Nova Lola and therefore Shem responds to
him and not her
the fika for this reason a Shem responds
to him and not her now let's just
analyze think for a moment I think you
know when you read a statement like this
it's very troublesome you know there's a
Shem desire the family give us and
calibra we called Eagles there's a Shem
value that person comes from a an
important lustrous family for one's
prayers to be heard it's certainly a
it's very discouraging for those who who
did the work out they're all you know
became belly truth island became you
know became very elevated very righteous
spiritual beings and and maybe won't be
other families it's ash Emily looking
for the feel of the the child of the
person who was born so to speak with the
silver spoon in their mouth II the one
who was a psychic been Sadiq they get
sucked the son of of Avraham and what a
hole we grew up in imagine Avram is a
father and Tsar as a mother
comparatively Rifkin grew up in a home
of we don't know about you about a
mother but we know a lot about her
father that disorder there's a Russia
evil person so it's it's it's a
disturbing statement to us that a Shem
seems to favor that the Fila
of the Sonic been Sonic to that of the
the Fila the prayer of the Sudeikis bus
Russia so see what could understand it a
little bit deeply and try to understand
what's going on it's interesting by the
way just when we read the words of
raschi's quoting the Camorra vamos so
this history that's worth one more time
so we just hear the sound it's as
reactor lotion responds to him as the
plastic says the verse says Fiat a
lotion respond to him to exclude
somebody else
Nova Lola him but not to her
they want to feel that made it up there
and that was the feel of that was the
crucial to feel it the crucial prayer
that that enabled rifka to conceive
shame don't want to feel it Sadiq been
Russia to feel it's I've been Sadiq
because you can't compare the prayer of
a sonic been sonic to the prayer of a
sonic pen Russia in this context eight
Sudeikis bus Russia
well righteous woman who was the
daughter of an evil man Lathika lover
Lola therefore he spawned to him another
now that statement the end that says and
therefore he spawned to him and not her
is going on the hijos in other words in
terms of yet Scott and rifki they might
be equal to some extent but the host is
the difference the difference is the
fact that one has a better family than
the other
now let's say we could work on that and
and get some understanding what seems to
be a very troublesome statement because
first of all you know we think about a
person just in general you know a rifka
what type of movement in her life did
she make to achieve what she achieved
imagine coming from a family like that a
family that you know a father
suela brother is loving we know when the
Eliezer comes to look for a wife we get
Scott we know that the Suleiman tries to
kill eleven what a family she grew up in
a family that you know was just did not
share the values that rifka grew into
and get a young girl and that sounds
like Koerner state sages a very young
age is capable of discovering that the
purpose of this world is Crested and
kindness like a frog you know when an
Eliezer said this look for a wife for
for four years about this Huck says I
need to look for someone who's gonna do
cus it was a new kindness and he creates
a test and the test is if I see a girl
and she's gonna come to me and it's
gonna offer to give me the drink in my
camels you know they set up this whole
test and and she passes this test
without being prompted magnificently she
comes and notices he
- what to drink those are the camels
leave what to drink and our city says
something so interesting even that you
know when he was coming he was coming
with ten camels so if anyone has ever
ridden camels before they're very unruly
beasts
I remember in Israel we used to
occasionally with students have camel
rides and there they're not so much
blessing the animals that's what you see
control so if you have ten camels manof
camel drivers and it says Rifco was
running back and forth to the well to
provide for all these camels but how she
was doing it all you know his camel
drivers were watching it strong men and
according about Hirsch he does a little
bit of calculation and he says that you
know camels can drink
enormous amount one of the thirsty and
it could be something in the range of
let's say it's 20 gallons isn't like
that so if there are ten camels there
might be 200 gallons that she needs to
carry of water so if you think about the
type of jugs that she had you know it
wasn't the Poland Spring Water and light
plastic weight jug yet carry on your
back was an earthenware Harris potted
pottery she's a little girl
so how much could hold maybe a half a
gallon and she just got 20 gallons so I
mean she must be running to that well
400 times and everybody sitting there
watching and she's doing it with with
alacrity and fervor devoted to the
aspect that I have an opportunity for
custody no one ever sees us of course he
understands that this is this is a sign
of what the personality the Mito of this
woman is of this little girl isn't what
she's gonna be capable of being and
therefore she's the perfect match and
why for for forget stuff so for a rifka
to have overcome so much in her life
without a family assisting her without
the values of the home is something of
enormous credit and therefore one would
suspect that the to feel of the prayers
of somebody who's overcome so much in
the life to become great it's certainly
something which God desires to hear
it's true your skull was great that's
very true but and we could always
attribute his greatness to the fact that
he grew up in a great home he grew up
with a and huh from a father like that a
sorrow mother like that Wow you know
that that that's it's it's if he didn't
become great there would be a question
so riff cos movement in her life the
fact that she became who she became
almost on her own is something enormous
and one would think that that is the
type of prayer that God wants to hear
the type of prayer that would be
instrumental in producing the fighter or
the final thing that Gandhi say here in
order to allow him to send down children
know if that's so why does Rashi quote
the good morning evolves that says that
as he says that the feel of exotic Vince
attic is greater the inner dome we can't
compare to Solomon selected that of a
it's a Degas bus Russia so the reality
is in fact according to Jewish law in
all other cases the two Fela of the
person who made the greatest strives in
their life is in fact what kind wants to
hear
that's the hollow one would suspect that
to be the waka and that is the whole
took on a Jewish law if you have a
choice between a Tzadik who is the son
of it's addict or you have its addict
who is the son of an evil person of
Russia and you have a choice who should
I choose to represent the community on
the High Holidays let's think of Kippur
Rosh Hashana so according to Jewish law
believe it or not
who do you choose you choose the person
who was the bad family it's just an anal
you know stick the baggie across the
back family that is Jewish law why
because in fact what do we value we
value a person who's made strides in
their life
a person who has created that change and
that's the person we want representing
us on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur
we want that it makes sense that God
would love such a person's prayers
because he made such movement in his
life and it makes sense because a person
who's made the type of movement can
inspire others to grow and that's what
purpose of of to feel and prayers to
inspire true the closer to God as the
purpose of life so that's the person we
want we value those people don't nobody
worry nobody money doesn't matter family
doesn't matter that's who you are what
you made of yourself
so I'll just read you I will read your
solution talk just for a moment
sohe lark says and I'm reading from the
the Tories are of the Taz norheim in
section of the joke inaugural I am Simon
Moonan Gilmore 53 self caught in Gitmo
in in safe cotton paragraph 3 those are
the ties and this hat says son is to
read it so we see it clearly the Todd
says it says but or cost-efficient rush
says in the tour I was riding in the
name of his father of the rush
she ain't mallow sasebo Ptolemy hos wish
but that when you're looking for someone
to represent the community in prayer we
don't look for Christmas bauble we don't
look for a family that has a great
lineage diva moment wish Bartleby zuyev
exotic if he's from a mish mokuba's ouya
meaning he a bad family disgraceful
family wits addict but he himself became
at Sadiq like rifka 12 the colour of me
Zara hokum it's better to take someone
who comes from this distant scene so to
speak when the band that family as we
know because it says in in in there's a
passage in Isaiah meow
it says it follows if I the PASOK and
nuns eyeing you test 57:19 shanem our
Shalom Sheldon the Rococo the cur of
greetings greetings peace to be with you
to home to the distant one and to the
close one the Navi
is quoting Chavez were to say peace be
to you
to the distant one into the close one
first the distance one then a close one
the person who was distant but came back
seems to take precedent has a has a
greater value or a greater than love in
some ways or Shemin desires that person
even more than the person who was close
Shalom showed the Rahula car of many
ways for the sick but but then basically
in the verses the verse in Isaiah puts
the distant one before the close over
however if they're both he goes out a
little bit he says this is Tov the Kirov
because why is it better to take the
person from a distant family it says
mash machinery run it smash mr. Clinton
applies and you have a choice you feel
the heartbeat of the coexist you ain't a
mucus mucus it's better to have the one
represent you in prayer the one who is
not in the US the one who does not come
from a good lineage why but the person
himself has become great
it says kedai the carver Leo so Zahra
latrina
because he'll be more effective in
bringing other people back to chuva dude
oh come on a little boy because Hashem
desires a heart who dat feel establish
mass yo sir therefore his prayer will
have more power be heard more bit
Seligman Sonic then the prayer of a
psittacosis son of exotic they said no
more by passing the rock or the car of
canal and as we learn from the verse we
just mentioned that Shalom shown the
rock Xiangshan de carros so interesting
the TASM gives us a little bit the tour
Azov gives leave a little bit of
explanation that when a person changed
their life when a person perhaps saw and
understood watch people doing things
that are wrong and and made the effort
to say I'm gonna change and no has knows
maybe how easy to do something wrong but
I'm not gonna choose it or maybe they
had done something wrong but
did Schumer on it that person is gonna
train with much more perfect this will
be more of a heart this is a feeling of
like I assure my eye I've been somewhere
I've seen things but I want you that
heart that he's gonna have this would be
such a great model for other people to
witness but they're gonna dolphin better
they're gonna pray better it's gonna
inspire the world it's gonna spire the
community through a model deeper boy
because it shouldn't desires a heart
that'sthat's broke in the heart that
that feels such a person be so sensitive
sensitive to sin sensitive to I could do
the wrong thing I did the wrong thing
but I'm the right track than that person
you know I am thank you for preferred
for taking my listening to me and
forgiving me and such at a level of a
feeling in that and that double of
feeling is so rut so so desires desire
is desirable to me Almighty that is
going to affect the power of his prayer
and the power of the prayer of the
community that's what the tad says
that's how the the Torah says of the
rush it seems like Vishal Clarke seems
to basket this way when we have a choice
everything being equal one is it sort of
both side thank you but if you could
find the one that doesn't have the good
family that's the person you choose
that's the person you shouldn't baby
should choose so with that said let's go
back to our problem your scarf and rifka
need to have want to have children and
they start praying and what do we learn
we learned that a Shem responds to whom
to get slots prayers lo Lola to him and
not to her and why because he is the
Tzadik been soldered
and she is the sudeikis mouth wash the
feet all over the line therefore to him
and not to her question is I think maybe
we wouldn't understand the problem how
does this fit with what seems to be a
seemingly contradictory Halawa which the
two felis of the person from the lesser
family is the is the more desirable to
feel that the more desirable prayer how
do we understand this so I'd like to
just offer an explanation but I to
beautiful explanations how we understand
the sin then really this is problematic
this is you know for you were in were in
the struggle of last 3300 leaven years
of Jewish thought everyone's bothered by
this how do we understand the statement
of our sages giving us shocks to feel a
more power and the statement of our
sages which says that the the fields of
its Otakon sadiq is not comparable to it
to feel of a Sudeikis bus Russia how do
we explain this so one thing just
parenthetically I just want to point out
before I give an answer I just wanted to
point out pathetically you know
sometimes maybe were under estimating
the power array of exotic bit Sonic
maybe it's not so easy to be the son of
exotic and there but maybe histor felis
have a power that that we might not be
able to imagine you know that for
example you know if you grow a Mac and
growing up a house of album of evil
Damansara he grew up with a father who
is so loving and just loves humanity and
and is so devoted to kindness and Hesed
and just doing for others and he's just
adored by by the world but you're not
that personality yet Scott wasn't that
personality they had all in fact the
descriptions we get about yes like in
the Torah is he seems to at times not
always be able to relate to people that
it says the wells that are on dug be
closed in the letting the life of your
stock there was tension with him
we don't learn much about his
interaction with people except to say
that he was someone on his own
in fact his Huck's personality we say
was meeteth and in there was restriction
it was perhaps taking our rooms crescent
of just expansiveness but saying no
that's not what needs to be you have to
limit you have to have rules there has
to be law there has to be you have to
have there has to be restriction not
everything is the path to God there is
direct path to God that requires a very
specific movement that's called in
limitation it he was completely the
opposite similar to his mother sorrow
you know as we mentioned a couple weeks
ago in our in our class about the
marriage of two opposites similar to
sorrow but imagine you don't have your
father straight and you grow up in that
home
how do you feel about yourself I think
you have two choices
choice number one is you can run you can
leave it and say I don't want anything
to do with this house I can't I can't I
mean I can't live up to what they want
me to be so I'm gonna I'm gonna leave
low - did that by the way this is one of
the reasons why loads had to separate
from his own call Avraham was it was too
difficult it was too difficult to be a
novice presence I don't feel good about
myself
well nothing there on someone who's so
great it's not easy to be around a great
father like that and yes I could have
run by didn't run he stayed and he did
something really spectacular he
developed his own brand of serving a
chef a brand based on what we called as
we mentioned in exactitude preciseness
limitation law
he took his personality and he developed
himself in other words he said I'm not
gonna copy my father I can't begin but
I'm gonna be me I'm not gonna be
intimidated by him I'm gonna use what he
gave me and I'm gonna develop myself to
be who I'm supposed to be
Cressida is important I love him for
that but I have to develop my brand
that's built on that you can't just be
open to everything you have to come
fine sometimes you have to move forward
based on direct path that's Dean and of
course the combination is what we got
Alvin brought the kindness Scott brought
the denon Yaakov as we say is 2/3 he's
the synthesis of the other two so he
didn't run he stayed and he developed
himself to be where he was supposed to
be I would suggest that there's a
greatness in that and and therefore it
could be that is to feel also very very
powerful beyond what we can imagine
again just because a person you know and
one day grows up in our great house it
doesn't mean they don't have their own
struggles they do they have their own
struggles am I going to live up to what
they expect of me am I gonna be an
imitation or vined developed me and he
passed that test beautifully so there's
a there is a greatness that comes from
from Chloe up at house like that too and
therefore I don't want to mitigate in
any way and minimize his to feel oft but
the question still is going back to what
we see as the pure hollow ho that when
we need someone to pray for you God
wants that person who made that enormous
change in his or her life and certainly
would be rifka yet in this context in
this weather darling for children it
says that he responded to another so I'd
like to offer a beautiful piece right
now by a a great ruff who died about 15
years ago tortion Schwab George Schwab
was the grove of the of da sky assurance
Dasha Shirin in Washington Heights he
was born in Germany in the early 1930s
he escaped the Nazi Germany came to
America was in Baltimore and then
eventually he was worked with Rev lawyer
in Washington Heights and eventually
became the the rub of the community and
one of the great Robottom of really the
last part of the the 20th century in
America and somebody I haven't to know
was able to meet that a few times met
personally it was connected to to his
son-in-law and somebody influenced me
greatly and they had opportunities to be
presence and that was a true source of
true merit for me to be in the present
such a great person so I'd like to share
with you what rep Schwab says about this
Sarosh Schwab focuses and says let's
think about this for a moment you know
we start the discussion by saying is
interesting that when they were
dominated they were praying in different
corners that detail seems to be maybe it
sounds like sex trainee Asst but maybe
it's not maybe that's an important piece
of the puzzle because the reason why
they're diving into corners is because
really there are two different prayers
that are being sent up what is the
prayer of a person who's that sonic of
sunlit sonic and what's the prayer of a
sudeikis boss Russia but maybe the two
prayers are very different and maybe
when it comes to having children which
is the specific thing they're asking for
right now it might be that the
difference in these two prayers is a
difference that makes for a difference
specifically in prayers for children in
other words in general and other
situations yet it could be we go with
the person who doesn't come from the
mucus take a family from the the
illustrious family but when it comes to
children it could be that the prayer of
Yitzhak is greater there are two
different prayers and that he's in one
corner and she's in the other corner is
indicative of what that these are two
different modes of communication to God
and in this context maybe one is more
powerful and you can't compare them
let's listen to the words of our swab
and see we can just take this one step
deeper he's writing in this is his
working a home which called the main
bait I should wave oh I want to thank my
friend rather Gladstein for for pointing
this source out to me and he says his
follows he says l made this up it zoom
in spiral of Zellman a specific zoom is
balelo's that Yitzhak is standing in one
corner in Dominic and Rivka was standing
the other corner dolphining
we got to low and it showed responds to
him as we mentioned you've almost
somewhat valid shame dome about to feel
excited inside the flip side up in
Russia you can't compare the prayers of
a of exotica been Sadiq to that of it
Sudeikis the daughter of a Russian an
evil person Lafitte for this reason
Lobo Lala I've come to shown of this one
bra she tells us via attacking the Viper
has been explained as follows
she's made the volume Halawa looms
Amazon
maybe these two things are very
connected should Tom shifted Stark
released by local Arab Azov it Shalom
the reason that each one needs to dive
in and pray in their own corner we've
nation T filo same hail her Lucas being
so done because it's really description
of their prayers the prayers are
completely different in their
fundamental approach in their foundation
what does that mean should the feeling
it's the heist the Philips Sonicare
insightiq the prayers of Yitzhak was the
prayers of his boy who was the son of a
great Sadiq Avram
but the feels rift Christ a field site
up in Russia and the prayers of Rivka
were the prayers of a great woman but
the daughter of a very evil man pursuing
obr inion the explanation the thing is
she can share sonic Ben sonic Miss
Powell
our Bannen one at silac the son of it's
addict prays for children hurry who miss
polishing your lilo Ben Cove
what's he diving for he's praying she
you learn no Bend of this that he should
have a son just like his father was a
book called Derek whatever and that's in
the realm of we called Derek whatever
that's natural in other words Yitzhak
understands what a psychic should look
like I've seen it I give a description
of it and when I pray for a son a child
who should be a great Sadiq as we all
pray for I can do that because I know it
is part of me I lived in that
environment I know what it sonic looks
like I know my father looks like
never might the felis are much more
natural they flow more easily they come
from a place of understanding a place of
clarity exactitude of what I'm asking
for a vodka should sonic been rushing
miss parlo
when it decided the sudden evil person
Davin's let's say that's a riff go miss
Paulo abundant and praying for children
hoping vodka she learned low bench and
loike up in Russia that person praying
for what they that he or she should have
a child that's not like their father
they're working the other way I've seen
an example of what you're not supposed
to be and I want something different I
don't know exactly what's supposed to
look like I haven't seen it but I know
it's not him so was it's a Wizard of Oz
you should look at that whatever
therefore for her to feel us to be
successful it's really should look at
dark whatever means it's not natural
it's not the natural flow instead it
doesn't come the words don't come as
easily the ideas don't come as ease the
clarity of what I'm looking for doesn't
come as easily
I know it's I haven't an idea what it
has to be I know what it's not supposed
to be but in sort of that Derek whatever
I don't have a natural ability to really
connect with the concept that I want to
pray for him because I've never seen it
or the pain therefore know how you to
feel those same shovels and therefore
the two felis were not equal we call it
crud he's father Boozer V slats mo each
one Goblin and pray to their own corner
why are they their own corner because
the two fields were completely different
that's what our saying - that's the
turns trying to communicate to us
there's no reason why they couldn't
stand next to each other and tell me
when different corners it is it was
because that's an illustration really
about what the fields were all about
they were so different gets like know
what to ask for over here it was part of
him risk we really didn't know what to
ask for it wasn't really powerful all
the wards that we like issue amar and if
this light it's possible to suggest to
say shamash a mucosal should to feel it
Sadiq been Sonic Nana's codon the fact
that gifts have responded to first is
lapa called the fellows that's not
necessarily true in all the Philips and
all prayers and the rocket should miss
bad my mother bought him but only when
you dolphin in for righteous children
she eyes nannies to filtered sonic been
sonic then the prayers of the son of the
decider cathodic Panasonic Bipasha in
Lavaca Jewish to negative all the reason
he's responded to first or his the
fields are gonna penetrate further is
why because he's not praying for
something which is against what is
natural for him he knows it he
understands it he can organize his
thoughts better he can have more
intention of what he's looking for and
therefore his to feel oh when it comes
to children specifically specifically
are gonna be more powerful and shall
respond to him and not her so let's just
think what we can take home from this
concept your first of all number one I
think it's a beautiful resolution of a
very difficult statement of our sages
and you know that it's not always true
that the son of it's Sonic will be
answered first and as we mentioned
according to ties in the tour in the
rush in general and other situations we
specifically want a person from a bad
family to pray for us because of the
movement that person made in the life of
the chef loves movement he loves chuva
he loves the heart and a person might
have more emotion because of where he's
been or what he seen or what he or she
has seen but this beautiful resolution
of our Schwab when it comes to children
his de Fela is more powerful because he
gets it he understands what that child
needs to look like I want to look at my
father I want to resemble my father I
can naturally flow in that direction and
I think perhaps the greatest take home
from this incident really my reason
almost for saying this particular class
is I think we see such a uniqueness in
to what to feel it isn't prayer you know
sometimes when we pray we pray three
times a day and and you know it's
something which were obligated to do and
something we need to do we need to
always be connecting with our Creator
that that's the purpose of life and to
feels the opportunity
but I think we learned something very
very important that the way we arrange
our to fill out the mode of our
communication the clarity of our thought
the the insight into what we really want
can create a much more powerful to feel
in other words to feel it isn't just a
standard thing I'm gonna the frame it's
gonna go up it it's true it does go up
God listens you this is very technically
no question but I think we're learning
something deeper the power of the
feeleth also depends on us if we can
have more clarity more direction more
intention a greater vision as I
mentioned of where we want to go with
our to feel out our prayers it's like
shooting a bow it's always the metaphor
shooting a bow and the further back you
pull that bow will determine how fast
and far that arrow will fly how deeply
it will penetrate we could pull that bow
string back even further when we have
more clarity and direction in our minds
when we're praying and that's what gets
luck had and therefore he was responded
to first my blessing to everybody is his
a champion grant us the ability to have
that clarity we should work on ourselves
to have the clarity and all the feel
should shoot to the highest point in
heaven and God to respond to all and
everything that we dreamed about we're
