Our sages bring a amazing story down with a great sage Rabbi Mayor Balan the G tells us every Friday he used to give a dasha a long dasha and there was a lady we'll call her kana who had a husband we'll call him Samuel Samuel wasn't a big fan of lectures and he wasn't a big fan of synagogues and he said to his wife you can do what you want I'm not going so the wife she went to the lecture and she got back home Friday night it was a little too late the candles were all out and her husband said, "Who is it?" And she said, "It's me. It's Ka. Where were you this whole time?" She says, "A at the lecture of Rebe." He says, "You're not coming home. I'm so upset that you took so long to come home. You're not getting inside the house. Until you go and you spit at Rebe." The lady hears that. She doesn't argue with her husband. She knows there's no point of going back and forth with somebody who's hot. She stood quiet. She walked out. She doesn't know what to do now. can't go and spit at a sage. He's a great rabbi. It's disrespectful. Rebeer through divine providence, through divine inspiration. He saw that this this lady was having quarrel with her husband and what what her husband requested of her. So what mayor did was he said, "Does anybody know a lady who knows how to spit and heal a person?" Meaning who knows how to spit in his eye and get him to heal from his eye pain. Everybody says, "What in the world?" We never heard of such a thing. He says, "Go find me a lady who knows how to spit in a person's eye and get them to heal from their pain." When the lady's neighbors saw that the rabbi was looking for somebody, they came to her and said, "Why don't you come?" And the rabbi needs somebody to spit in his eye. Why don't you go and spit? She They bring the lady to the rabbi. And the rabbi says, "I heard that you know how to spit in people's eye to get them to to heal." She says, "Rabbi, I don't know what you're talking about. I can't help you." She says, "No, no. Spit in my eyes seven times." So she spits in his eye seven times at after which point the rabbi said go. Thank you so much for your help. And she went back to her husband. She comes to her husband and uh they had shalom. They made shalom because she said I fulfilled your request. But the students were now upset. They said, "What's going on?" Well, how did you let this lady spit in your eye? So the rabbi said something very powerful. He says, "I'm no I'm not I'm not greater than God." See, God said, "Take my name and erase it in the water in order to make peace between man and wife." God sacrificed his honor, his glory in the world. And am I greater than God? Of course not. So, we see how much Rabbi Mayor pushed himself to bring peace between man and wife. And the lesson for us in our own homes is to realize that marriage peace takes sacrifice. that we must push ourselves to have in order to have that shalom in our homes and not to sit and stick to arguments to be willing to relinquish our honor and we should experience shalom in our homes. Amen.
