Hi, this is Davidski and welcome to our pre pesak uh podcast of the Rabolowski show. It's a lot of peas over there. Hope I don't spit into the microphone. It's a perfectly perfect [Laughter] day. Anyway, um whether you're watching with our friends over at Tory Time or wherever you watch or listen to your podcast, as always, we're happy to have you along for the experience. And don't forget to like, share, subscribe, and comment. And we have a sponsor this week who sponsored last week, too. I'm reading this once again, and the person uh who is sponsoring this went so far as to sponsor two episodes. And as I've mentioned already, it's uh it's your support that makes this show possible. Possibly. Hi, I've been waiting so long to do this. Three exclamation marks. I have always wanted to donate and now I finally can. You should go make and to continue to have tremendous strides in your parosa. Your podcast bring happiness to my life. I am so glad. When I was going through a difficult time, I would tell everyone that one of the only things that makes me smile was this podcast because you can't smile without you. I can't laugh. I can't sing. I'm finding it hard to do anything. It's like one of those, you know, just to cheer you up kind of songs. Don't stop. As listen, when I was growing up, people always tell me to stop. I used to say I got p paid for singing. people would pay me not to. Anyway, don't stop as you are changing my life and many others. May God bless you and the work that you do. Best wishes, RG. Best wishes right back at you. Okay, this is our prep um uh podcast performance. Personally, I prefer to do podcast before Pes. So, uh I put on my matzah tie. I usually wear this tie um first night of Peso. That's when I wear this. someone had gotten this many many many years ago and um uh and I would like to just take a moment to talk about my favorite subject which is myself and um just talk about what a tremendous balidas I am because I go to davin someplace and there's always several people wherever I'm ding who likes to say what happened you spilled some mutz on your toy and I go that's a that's a very good one I've never heard that one for anyway because I'm a tremendous bombas. So if you do it, you will not hear me make any kind of a a rude comment. I'll be like, "Oh, that's very nice. Thank you." Anyway, because uh I've worked years on on my midas and uh and uh I have to really say that my Anova is probably my greatest mida. I've worked so hard uh to be humble and I'm so impressed with the level of humility that I've achieved. That is a joke. For those of you who are not aware, for the humor impaired, we'll have to have like a little sign. That was a joke. Anyway, people don't always know. There was a Rabbi Shet was giving a shir and someone showed him a shot that somebody wrote down in their safer that they had heard from Dev Labitz. And he looks and he goes, "I was in this shar. This was a joke." He said it was a joke and he wrote it down as if it was real. So, uh, you got to be careful with that, you know. So, just want to point that out. Anyway, so, uh, um, yeah. So, this is it. It's gonna be PES already. Uh, Shabas, right? One of these, uh, funky years where we're gonna have to have everything all done beforehand and then Arab Pes is Shabas. have to get in those two sudas before uh before beforeicky tricky. Anyway, um let's uh uh so let's finish what we were doing last week for those of you who may have missed last week. Last week was a continuation of what we did last year on Pesak. What we did last year on Pesak is a one of my flights of fancy wherein I'm taking the atbash of Pesak that was um mentioned by uh the tour that there's an atbash of Pesak that alf the first day of pes corresponds to tough tish ba the second day corresponds to shin for giml Third day corresponds toash. Um the fourth day corresponds to for of and the fifth day corresponds to and the sixth day corresponds to pay which is purim of the year before. So that means that Yam Kipper is uh going to correspond is going to come out Wednesday night, Thursday this year. That's how you uh that's you can make that calculation. Um so uh that means we're going to have uh another one of those years where you have an extra shabas in between Yam Kipper and Sukus. So, uh, just make a little mental note. You have to really pack it in. All right. But we'll talk about that when we get closer to I'm wondering why the um fifth day of Pesak should correspond to Yum Kipper. So I mentioned last time that on Pes unlike sukus where every day of moade we read the same thing which is what which is the of that day and here in we do it four times in you read two kbon because you have to take that's why when you have one of those uh sidorm in America you have those brackets for each day encouraged taking two days on each day because you have to do it you know every day you have to do this on the third day you have to do the third day and the fourth day on the fourth day the fourth day and the fifth day etc but here we just do whatever the carbon is a day on yum ravi we do the kurban of yum ravi and we just read it four times so it's really pretty straightforward on pesak we do different creus on every single day and on the fifth day the crea is from kisa why kisa because there is a as I mentioned the gullim uh besides being an amor with all of the yum toim it's in mishbatim it's in kisa and it's in re so on the fourth day we read the scholum that is in mishbatim and the fifth day we read it in kisa now this happens to be very interesting if the fifth day corresp responds to Yam Kipper because we know that the story of Yam Kipper takes place in parasisa. A quick historical overview and this is what's in parasa. Moshe goes up on Hari on uh he comes down on Shivosamos. He sees we built the eagle. He breaks the luos, destroys the eagle, kills the people who serve the eagle, and then goes back up for another 40 days and 40 nights and comes down on the 29th of of and he says, "Okay, God is going to forgive you, but he will no longer live in your midst." And Moshe takes his own tent and sets it up outside of the Machnah, and the cloud rests upon his tent. And uh and that becomes the O mo. And the people say to Moshe, "Sorry, we can't live like this. We want Hashem back the way it was." Said, "Well, I'll do the best I can." So he goes up for another 40 days and 40 nights starting on Roshesh El through 40 days and he comes down with the second set of luos on Yum Kipper and that's why yum kipper becomes a day of and kapor and he is also told about the yudgim midos which can be used to get forgiveness for and that's why so much of yum kip paper focuses on the yudgeimidos. Certainly when you come to nila over and over again we say the yudgimidos I grew up they used to sing the yudgimidos and let me tell you when you have to sing the yudimidos uh you know 15 times in a row almost [Music] after a while it gets a little hard especially when you're watching the clock there but um uh but if you just have nila where they're saying the it takes right a lot of time to get it all in uh we say it over and over again that's in parasisa and then at the end when hashem finally forgives the Jewish people and agrees to give them the second lucos once Again, we have the shrim. There's a difference in the shrim that's described in Kisa and the one of and perhaps I will focus on uh one aspect of that and that is sukus. um when it's described in sukus is which is the end of the year and when it's described in kisa it's the beginning of the year now I heard a ver years ago I asked this misha shapiro and uh and he said he never heard that but it's obviously based on the of kahana And I spoke about this if you go back to last year when we talked about Russash Shana a little bit and that is the Torah that we have is not the Torah that we were supposed to have gotten that got broken. Right? The first l were different because uh it says um don't read carved into the lus but freedom in the lus and the kazal say freedom from forgetting freedom from evil freedom from death. That means that if we would have gotten those first set of luhov, those first tablets, that would have been a cure for all of the ills of mankind, we would have brought the world back to Gan Aiden. Hence the expression, take two tablets and call me in the morning. Right? Those first two tablets would have changed the entire world. And so obviously there are a lot of mitzvah in our Torah that would not be in uh in uh that Torah. One for example would be paraduma. There would be no need to have a para of paraduma of how to metah yourself from tummy maze because nobody would ever die. So that obviously would not be there. And the yum toim would have been different. And this is the pika the ravkahana that quoted and he said there were the the av spanned three months. Tamos of and there were supposed to be holidays in those months and those holidays were taken out and they were all moved to Tish meaning and he made the once in a rashana would have been shazam that would have been yam kipper would have been tishav and sukis would have been an el and then we would count 49 days till we do like we do from pes to shuis is called by the by the khazal ateris assembly so too there would be sukus and then we'd count 49 days and we would have it wouldn't be called then it would just be called ateris and that would have been in tish The only holiday that was supposed to be in tish was and instead they all got moved into tish which means before the ael at the beginning in paras mishbim sukus was supposed to be in l at the end of the year now it's in tish at the beginning of the year and all of these yum to him changed and morphed everything turned around because of this. So, uh, that's what it was supposed to be. So, the the fact that the schol have changed along with the rest of the Tory, it's because of the fact that we built the eagle and we messed up and we finally got forgiveness on Yam Kipper and that allowed us to repair the damage that was done. Now again I've said this every in every one of these shurim that I'm saying on this topic. I have no basis for saying all these things that I'm saying. This is my own flight of fancy that I'm assuming that there's a relationship between the alf and the tough between the first day of pes and tish and I'm assuming there's a relationship between ba the second day of pes and etc. So what I'm saying over here this is like I say olive bay and gimmel are pretty solid. It's not that hard to be able to make the association and to make the relationship. Um when we come to dollar and hay I'm I'm investing in it more. So the way I said it was like this that alf is the day that we come out of mitz. Yeah that was that was a wow. The second day we had to begin the work. That was why begins that concludes with it starts the 49 days that were leading up to become the people to get m the third day is rashana. Why? Because on that day that's when the guards told us to return and we said no and we beat them up and sent them on their way and we understood what was going to happen. We saw what was going to be going on and was that was the real liberation because as long as those guards were with us and we had this idea that maybe we might have to go to back to the tri we weren't completely free yet and that was a new beginning for us. The fourth day as we explained in the last uh in the last uh podcast um is uh because now we have to start doing the work, right? Get down to business. Not just talking about it, but sitting down and learning and uh and whatever Torah that we had, whatever ideas that we had, we had to start working. And then that brings us to Yipper where we understand now parro is going to come and get us and that was on the sixth day that he came that was pur when you feel you're hopeless and everything is gone but on this last day mistama where they start to examine themselves in the fourth day and now on the fifth day they're anticipating Pyro's arrival. Now is a time to start looking at your life and doing chuva. Now is a time to start realizing, okay, um I I better I better start putting my house in order. That leads into purim. And as we know uh it's a kadesh that says yum kiper is called yum hakipurim which could be read as yum kipurim a day like purim which seems like a pretty amazing concept but you know there are three days of matra there was shus when we basically heard hashem give the dbros but those actual lucos we never got they were broken. So we didn't we didn't get those. The alakadesh says that the reason is called the holiday of weeks is because we can't call it the holiday of Torah because we didn't get the Torah, right? That that Torah was broken. All we can celebrate was the weeks of preparation leading up to there. Yum kipa was the day that we actually got the luos. That's when we got the turbikav. That's when we got the actual Torah. Purim is when we were the Torah. So you see that Yum Kipper and Purim are both days of Kabatra. But one was because we got to see the miraculous salvation. And the other one is because we sensed that we have the ability to repair the damage that we've done. When Shapiro was explaining how Shivasamos and Tishab would have been rashipper he said like this had we received those first luos that would have been rashashana why because we count rashashana from the creation of the world mist right that's according to rabbi leaza the world was created on rashashana according to rabbi Yeshua it wasn't it was created on rashes Nissan. So you need of course the drussan to explain according to what the significance of Russash is. But had we received those first lucos the world would have begun all over again. I give you an example. The Garan Sanhedrin says um how long will the time of Msiah come? So the first shittita says from the creation of the world till the end of the world. that entire period of time. The other one says no from the time of Noah after the marble till here. Why? Because it was a new world. The moble was a new world. We look at the world all over again. We're starting over. It wasn't the same world. It's very interesting. Uh the says um that Har died in front of his father. He says no child ever died in the lifetime of his father until Har. And he says if you look at the years and it tells you how long Shamesh Pel how long everybody lived no child ever died in his father's lifetime. So then he asked the obvious question, what about Cayenne? He says that doesn't count. That was before the mobble. Or if you did your SAT preparation uh course, it was anti-delivian. It's a great word. Anti-dolivian literally means before the flood. Yeah. So anti-delivvian means it was a different world. It was a different world after the marble than the world be after the marble. So you're starting over again. It's a new world. Yeah, if we would have gotten those first lucos, the world that we would be living in would have been unrecognizable to the world that we were living in and the world we're living in today because you'd be in a world where there'd be no yates, there'd be no death, there'd be no uh the world would be gone again. It would go back to what the world was supposed to be. it would solve all the in the world. But that didn't happen. But that could have been Rash. So this is what he said when it comes to no matter how great you are, you need a day for forgiveness. You always need a day of andap because as the says there's no person in the world who doesn't do something wrong explains from the very fact that you're human there's going to be things that you do that go against your vote. Notice Hashem simple example is you sleep well you're certainly not sorry when you're sleeping now yes you can have when you're going to sleep that I'm sleeping to give myself the strength to be able to do a hashem but being physical as explains being physical by the very fact that you're physical in and of itself that means that there going to be aspects of your hashem you're not going to be able to do there's going to be limits to how you can There's limits to your there's limits to your there's only so much you're going to be able to do because you're a human being and you're physical and your physical limitations by definition limits you. This is uh also the shot that the kazal explained on the yudgomidos and we when it's explain says hashem hashem hashem forgives you before you've done anything wrong. Hashem and hashem forgives you after you've done things wrong. So of course all the maf ask how could I need forgiveness if I haven't done anything yet and the answer is simply from the human experience from the fact that you're a human being you end up doing things wrong because of your physical limitations. So you always need a yam kiper even in a world of completion you need one day that is set aside for and kapara. So I'm again this is this is my flight of fancy. So on this day just before pyro arrives this is an opportunity where people have to sit down and stop and think what am I doing in this world? What am I trying to accomplish? Um what have I done wrong? What can I do? Now they obviously didn't do pure chuva. That's obvious. Yeah. How do I know? Because when they come to the Yamsu, it says the Yamsu wanted to drown Ben Israel also. Why shouldn't I kill them too? So whatever real chuva is, we didn't do it. But you know there is a shittita of Revi in the Mishna which says that um you can get capura on Yam Kipper even without chuva. Just yum kipper itself gets you forgiveness. The power of that day. So before we were going to face off against pyro and then conclude with the theapaku of k yamsuf the one of the most unexpected events in human history because no one pictures the sea splitting. That is something so outside of human experience. So when you uh see something like that, so uh we don't even know what to make out of it. Yeah. So that's the purim that's the but that's the yum kipur. But yum kip where we have to stop and think I am falling short. I need to make improvements. There are aspects of my life that are not right that I need to change. And there's the mahus famous makus in the gumar about whether or not we need to do chuva to bring msiach between rav and shmo. And uh it turns out that rav says mashia will only come if we do chuva and says no mashia will come even if we don't do chuva. So we say this is similar to a rebel and Yeshua says Mashiach will not come unless we do chuva and says listen to this nope you don't have to do chuva rather will bring a melmon now hmon was not the king he didn't have the absolute power now imagine if hmon was actually the king look at how bad it was when he wasn't the king and he will make gazeras onel and then we'll do chuva. So say then what's the mas right says mashia won't come until you do chuva and Yeshua says no he'll bring a terrible king and then you'll do chuva. So uh they're both agreeing you have to do chuva and then it turns out that nobody's saying like who says you don't have to do chuva from to come. So the way to understand it I think yeah and this is what some of them refers to explain is even schmo agrees you have to do some kind of chuva but what rav means is you have to do real chuva real chuva I've told this story in the past yeah when the twin towers went down that sukus happened in just before that sukus I went to visit and And he would tell anybody who would listen this is go. This is the beginning of the end. This is Mashiah is coming now. And somebody there who was a you know bonafide not like me you know average Joe he was a real guy. And he says but there are those who said that World War II was go and he says can low because Mash didn't come. I said, "Yeah, but but look at the effect of the show. Look what it's had on the Jewish people." He says, he says, "These were the words. It was so hard to listen to that was nothing." Says, "A help for the people who died. They died." But it obviously did not fulfill the role of Goaog and Cla. How do you know? Because um it says when goamoga comes everyone will do chuva. Says David there was a shawah did you do chuva says chuva after this you will do chuva. So two interesting things of course from three interesting things from that story and that is obviously whatever the role historical role of the holocaust was it's not what most people think certainly not go second thing is he knew that I hadn't done cha third thing is he gave me a bra that I will do chua which I definitely appreciate but um but the idea that uh um that we will have to do chuva. So that's what Vishua is saying. It'll be a chuva that we'll do, but it's not going to be the chuva that we do. um which is a chuva schla like like ra is saying like ribbazzar is saying it means that there'll be some type of achuva where um just from the fear we'll turn to bar and the anticipation on that day before parro arrived even according to Yeshua obviously they didn't do full chuva like ribbazzar says or like rav says But p just like and by the way the gamarra brings a bisc where and Yeshua argue back and forth with different psukim and finally agrees Yeshua and says yes in fact we won't have to do a complete chuva from mashiah to come even he agrees so whatever level of chuva they had to do there had to be something that comes about from the anticipation and that fear her. Now Clausfel took that opportunity to stop and to think and uh the power of Yam Kipper there is one day which is of course that's of course Yam Kipper. Having said that, there is every single day right person should do chuva the day before you die. And since you don't know when you're going to die, then you should do chuva every day. So the concept of yam kipra is something that should be there all the time. The hidden power of yam kipra like rebi says to get your forgiveness even if you don't do chuva. That's that's unique to yam kipra. That's where forgave us completely in a way that did not make any sense because we blew it. I've mentioned this in the past that the masle of is the basula. Why? Because it represents there are certain things you can only do in this world once. And once you lose it, you lost it. It doesn't matter how how bad you feel about it. And that's true in everything. If you did something stupid and you cut off your hand, your hand is gone. Doesn't matter how sorry you are, you're never getting it back. The fact that a kosh forgave us and gave us another set of luos and agreed to once again live among us etc. That's the miracle of yam kipra. It doesn't make any sense. We didn't deserve it. So the fact that Yam Kipper has the power to get us forgiveness even when we don't deserve it, that's an unbelievable thing. And any time that Israel turns to together as one. The med says when uh um parro finally arrived, Clao turned into four groups. There were those who said let's dive in. There were those who said let's fight. There were those who came to fight with Moshe. There were those who said let's go in the sea. There was no unity before Kamsu. The people had their own opinions and fighting. But it could be at this particular moment before parro actually arrives and like I say I don't have a basis for any of this. This is all me talking. It could be that Claios themselves recognized that this was an opportunity for us to be able to join together. The truth of Yum Kipper comes from the fact that we have confidence in a koshu and uh that a koshu is going to forgive us. I it it's a strange thing yam kipra we go in dressed in white we know that best case scenario we came out of yam kipra as a bayon the odds of us I mean said I I'm I'm a ban I came out as a sad gum and the odds are are not are not good for that so we uh we go into saying we're banim that scary image that blazer gave. What does it mean? Ben and him are hanging. Says you have to picture yourself at the gallows with the rope around your neck waiting to see if the executioner pulls the lever or not. You're hanging at Yeah. You go in, you imagine the pad, we go in dressed in white. Not only that, when we say the shamu, so when we say to ourselves, god knew, but when we say it together, I always thought it was so weird as a kid. [Music] We have lied. We have cheated and we've uh and we act deceitfully. We have robbed, stealed, and killed. And I beat your grandma. Hey, that's kind of weird. That's that's what we're singing with a tune like that. And the answer is we go into Yamipra with a confidence. We go into a with a because it's we're being judged. But in said you step towards me. Take a step towards me and I will forgive you. So built into Pesak is the potential for capora. I talked about this once you know um the theme of el is chuva theme of rashashana is chuva sme chuva is chuva yipper is chuva sukus is also chuva and um and chuva yeah and it's chuva and then if you're um if you're from chuva then you start chauvin do chuva and then uh you come to uh chuva right the three weeks chuva it's a lot of chuva but obviously there's nuances but what it means is that there are opportunities throughout our life and throughout our year when we have chances to be able to change ourselves who we're supposed to be pesak is obviously therapeutic we've spoken about this in the past, right? Um, matzah is something that is a simple bread. There's no luxury to it. It's not a big, right? So, it takes out all the ga ga. You take a flat matzah and you put yeast in it and you turn into a big uh white bread. Yeah. That's a that that represents ga. You blew yourself up. And it's le oni. It's poor man's blood bread. There's no tya. Yeah. And so we go for a week to cleanse ourselves from all of that ga and tya and get it out of our system. That's what Pesak is. So once a week we have to go through a a therapy to cleanse ourselves to to remove all this from ourselves before we can go back. similar to sukus. We spend a um a week outside of our houses um under the we don't have a real roof. You can't live without a roof when it rains. Yeah. So it's it's a it's a therapy sus. So too is pes and the point of it is to help us change from who we were and to start us on the road to and build us up. The whole first week is if you are um if you're uh spir so it tells you the first week is second week is gurus second third week is deferris right until the last week is malus seventh week is malus and uh that's that we're going through but the whole first week is is who took us as a Yeah. And he and he took care of us and he brought us to Yamsu to be able to to experience that tremendous of salvation and Yeshua that gave us which as you see from the Yamsu we didn't deserve. There's no difference between them. They're all not the people of God. So this week is Perrick Daled he says after speaking about din and all the exact judgment he says so what does the raim do in the world and he says the mercy in the world does three things number one it means you're not punished immediately because you should get punished immediately as soon as you do something wrong just like you do in the physical world if you stick your hand in a fire and you burn off your hand there's no delay to that happens immediately you don't say okay I'm going to take take off your I'll burn off your hand in three weeks. No, you get it right now. And you're not purnished with burning anger would be fit a rebel against the king. Yeah. There only one punishment from and that's death. And every time we sin as we say on nothing what the particular sin is irrelevant. you told me not to do it and I did it anyway. I've sinned against God. And so that's a that's a very powerful thing. We have to take that into account when we're um when we're looking at it. We so therefore that should be the punishment. What we used to call when I was growing up the lightning bolt meth method. Do something wrong, you should immediately get zapped. But Kho doesn't, right? He can downsize your punishment. He has you'll get punished, but it doesn't have to be the same punishment. So the Gmorrah says it could be you reached into your pocket for a quarter and you pulled out a nickel. Doesn't say that exactly because there were no quarters and nickels back in the time, but it means you went in for one coin and you pulled out a smaller coin by mistake. So you have to go in again. That could be the extent. Or you could have bought a suit and he had it tailored and it doesn't fit just right. I've had that kapur many times. Um, and other things like that that he can mitigate the punishment. It's it's still din, but the rahman allows me to have a um a certain flexibility in the sentencing of the punishment. And he says, "And the third thing is what does allow?" Chuva is a complete because it doesn't make any sense that you should be able to undo what you did. And he says, "If I committed adultery or murder, how can I remove that from reality?" And he explains how it's possible to do it, but it's a it's a there is a method, but the method is definitely. So the first week of is all and gives us the means that he creates the potential for chuva. What yam kipper is that was manifested where we were able to undo the terrible betrayal that we did by the eel. uh the the the terrible crime we did against the bar, we were able to undo it and recreate what we had beforehand and Hashem forgave us. Shalom. So during this week when we come out of Mitzim, that's the ability that we have to take this of Chuva. So perhaps and like I say, yeah, it's only a perhaps that's why the fifth day when we read para's kisa which is the which is the para of the ael and yam kipper and the chuva that we did maybe because there is a hint that the fifth day as the as the um as the Torah tells us corresponds to Yam Kipper and that power of Yam Kipper that could manifest test itself just before we have to come face to face with a disaster. The chuva that we will do before Mashiach comes in order to merit that salvation. Okay, question Fox. Do you have a go-to salmon recipe? I'm looking for a quick and easy recipe for a busy mom. Thanks in advance. Well, [Laughter] well, I am so glad you asked me this question. Um, I uh I'm waiting to put out a cookbook. Somebody wrote me, are you going to put out a Hagi? You have so much good stuff in the Hagada. Yes, I'm going to do that, too. I've got a lot of stuff to do. The problem is that I'm a [Laughter] terrible. Yeah, I uh I get distracted easily, you know, and so um uh so I'm supposed to do it. But uh I wanted to name it what my mother used to say to me, but people said you you can't do it. So when my mother who was working with my father, you know, she started going to work when my father went bankrupt to rebuild the business. So she wasn't home. So, uh, there are six boys and I, you know, I just like by, um, by certain amphibians, if they're all males, some of them will turn into females, but they change or vice versa. So, I I became the, uh, the girl and they didn't even know about gender fluidity back then. So, I was the token girl. So, I would do the cooking and the shopping and the and the and and the cleaning and the laundry and stuff, you know, and that was uh that was my role, you know. So, um my my brothers went to help in the store. My father said, "Do me a favor. Stay home and help your mother." You know, or uh I I just went to fix uh fix my car and I saw a sign up and says um rates $100. Yeah. An hour. If you stand over us, $200. Yeah. If you um if you if you offer suggestions, $300. If you try to help, $400. If you tried to fix it yourself, $500. And I said, "That is absolutely brilliant." I remember when I was a kid, my father would be working on something. I said, "Dad, can I help?" He says, "You want to help? Don't help." So, I used to come into the store and apparently I I um I was a negative force instead of a positive force in the store. So, he'd say, "Do me a favor. Stay home and help your mother." So, um uh so my mother would say, "Put up the soup." And I said, "I don't know how." And she'd say, "It's easy, stupid." And she'd say, "Do this, do this, and this." And I did, and it worked. Or she would say, "Put up the brisket." I said, "I don't know how." And she say, "It's easy, stupid. Do this and that." Right? So, I wanted to call the cookbook a teasy stupid, but um uh people said, "You really shouldn't write that because stupid's not a nice word, etc." But it was one of my mother's pet names for [Laughter] me. Anyway, mom, I love you, Mom. Anyway, but uh I I believe in easy. You may have picked this up. My wife one time was reading through the recipe section in one of these magazines that she gets. She doesn't really do it. That's the only thing that I read. I've I've said this more than once. I in the hammuda I read that's an idea because I think that's absolutely brilliant and the last suggestions but I can never remember them when Bishas Ma I wish they would put them all together in a in a book but uh I don't always remember them. And um and uh the mishb I read the kickles. Yeah. And otherwise I read the recipe sections. Yeah. Just to remind myself of the words of um ofineberg. It's hard to remain sane in an insane world. When everybody's crazy and you're normal, you start to think that maybe you're crazy. And I look at these recipes and they make things sometimes that I make only with nine extra steps. And I can't understand for the life of me why they do that. And I believe on making everything as simple as possible. And that's why in my recipes uh I have a lot of things that are very very simple. Yeah. Um because I believe in it. How do I make salmon? Listen very closely. Okay. I sprinkle on garlic powder and lemon juice. I put it in the oven and I bake it at 350 until it's done to your wellness. I like it a little more well done. Um, most people like it a little less well done. And that's it. It's delicious. Now, my wife one time was reading one of these recipe sections and she says to me, "They've just run out of ideas. You can see they're just making stuff up now to be able to figure out how to print an issue." Because if you put all of the normal recipes, i.e. the ones that I make, yeah, it would just be like one issue. That's going to be my cookbook. Just easy, simple, normal stuff, you know. Um, I'm sorry. I I just When you have an entire uh section uh issue dedicated to different ways to prepare raw fish, you've lost me. I'm not there. I'm not going to do it. I know people like raw fish. And I think that's wonderful. Um, I just remember the words of uh Jackie Mason who says, "Sushi was invented by two Jews who said, "How can we open a restaurant without a kitchen?" He says, "It's crazy." But I I know my children, they sometimes like that kind of raw fish stuff and I think that's just great. But not me, my friends. My fish recipes are all delicious and simple. You can try this. And in every issue, almost in every magazine, they have another way to make make uh um uh salmon and they're crusting it with pistachios and they're adding this sauce to it. They're doing this and that. I don't do it this way. Now, my wife, yeah, sometimes she'll take it and she'll um she'll put teriyak sauce on it. Very popular. Just take teriyak, pour it on, bake it. very delicious. Uh sometimes she'll take a honey mustard sauce, right, and put it on top. Now, how do you make your honey mustard sauce? Listen carefully. Take honey and mustard, mixed together, slap it on, break it that way. Yeah. And that's how we make um salmon. There are many, many more complicated ways to do it, but your question is specifically, I'm busy. It's before Pesak. How do I make it? A little lemon juice, uh, a little garlic, it'll be delicious. That's my opinion. Okay. By anonymous, what is the significance of the items that were created on a shabasm? What was their common denominator? Okay. For those of you who do not appreciate the reference in the fifth per of um, it says the following. It has a whole bunch of tensor. The world was created with 10 expressions. Uh 10 tests of Abraham, 10 times the people tested. Yeah. And we know there were all kinds of tens. Yeah. 10 generations from from Adam to Noah. 10 generations from Noah to Abraham. All the tens. And among the tens 10 miracles that took place in the B mikdesh. And among the tens are 10 things that were created in the twilight of creation. 10 things that were created after before. Now you understand that could only have been a moment. It could only have been a a moment. Yeah. Manas. because uh we in fact say and God rested on the seventh day right but what was he doing that he rested on the seventh day really he rested at the end of the sixth day so Rash brings two explanations one is well he created rest there had not been before he created rest in the world the other explanation was that could tell the difference between the end of one day and another but to everybody else it looked like it was the same day. So by what could it have possibly been because one day ends the next day. That's what Rashi says. So Ben could have been only a moment and he created these 10 things. What's the significance of creating now both Rashi and the Ramban say in more than one place that really everything was created in the first moment of creation and the next six days or the remaining six days he put everything in its right place but everything was created in moment one moment so what were these things why weren't they covered already in the creation so the answer is that this world is represented by the six days of creation And Shabas represents the world to come. A world that is completely shabas. It it it takes you out of this world. There are six days and then there's a seventh day and the seventh day is out of everything. That we don't really have a seventh day. The seventh day is the sixth day and then all the six comes together. We've explained this when we did our sham on Shabas where if you picture a cube with six sides, Shabas is what's in the middle. That's why the moan is six points and that little hexagon in the middle that's shabas. And that's the same thing by the spherus and are the six manifestations and malus receives from all of the other ones. It's a mabel of all the other six spherus. So it all comes in together. So it's not that the seventh day is another day. It's not another day. There's six days. There's six sides. And the seventh is what gives it meaning and fills it and brings it all together. Otherwise, seven just means a lot like yeah it says you will flee before them by seven roads or you will chase them on seven. Just means a lot. Seven is really six and then the thing that brings it all together is what we call seven. That's the uniting of those six and everything comes together. Six years you work on the shmita you enjoy what you've done already and that's it. It's not another year. It's the completion of everything that went before it. Right? So the six days of creation is this world. Shabas is not this world. The twilight of creation are things that are in this world and not in this world. They are twilight things. So um uh the pa the the mouth that swallowed up Korak. There's no such a thing in the Bria. It doesn't exist. And that's why Mosha Reno says,"I want something that has never been done before that is not part of the Bria to prove that I'm not just making this up as it's going along and I didn't just make up the Tory and that um he's not getting killed because of my co but that there's a change in creation itself." Well, can't create something new that never existed. So the P hab has to be in the twilight of creation. It's not part of creation but it's before creation completely ends in the twilight. So too animals do not have the kayak of dore that is uh it's a foundation right when you play uh I always say when you play 20 questions in America they say animal veh excuse me animal vegetable and mineral and people are included in animal we when we play it in uh in Israel we have domainame silence that's that that does nothing it just sits there that's mineral. Soak something that grows that's vegetable those are animals and a human being is a madabir. So we understand people are not part of animals because they have the power of speech. Animals by definition can't speak. So the fact that the the dunkey spoke to bum is not possible in brium. Animals do not have the power of debour. So the potential for this one animal to speak had to be built into the Bria. It was part of cre it had to it had to be created but it's not part of creation. It doesn't make sense in the normal function of creation. And so all of these 10 things are things that had to have been created because they would be needed in the world, but they are not part of the world. And therefore if you go through the 10 things with the mafur over there I suggest particularly the maharal you'll see how he describes how all of these 10 things are are in creation were used in creation but are not part of the normal functioning of creation.
