so to says don't be selfish but don't be selfish not with your friend or even with your enemy someone you don't like why don't you like him oh he's a sinner all this guy's this guy's a sinner this guy you know he steals in his business VI chabbat so ah I shouldn't help him no no no my friend if he is a Jew you have to help him unless he's an idol worshipper if he's an idol worshipper or he's someone that leads other people astray then it says let his donkey die let him die too if he's stuck in a ho the idol worshipper stuck in a hole let him die don't save him but how do we actually act in the world we act in the world but we save them too why if you are a doctor and you get call on Shabbat that someone is at risk of dying unless you come to the hospital and you save their life with some type of surgery if it's a Jew it's a mitzvah for you to go save this guy's life it's a mitvah for you to drive in a car in Shabbat to go save somebody's life Mitzvah it's not like it's not a sin it's an actual mitvah to drive on Shabbat and perform anything to save a Jewish life but what about if it's not a Jew if you're a doctor you still have to drive on Shabbat to go save the nju and the reason why is not because to save the non-jew rather it's because if you don't save the non-jew then what's going to end up happening is that the non-jewish doctors are not going to save the Jews you're going to indirectly hurt other Jews therefore you go save the non-jew also you're not allowed to hate The Sinner you have to hate the sin has a debate between and his wife was a very wise woman knew a lot of tor she saw that her husband was being insulted and bothered by these these gangsters outside every day the little gangster kids will bother him call him names all types of things so they bother them so much every day every day every day that uh one day he found himself starting to pray for them to die before he finished the prayer cuz had he finished the prayer definitely they would die buah who heard this stopped him in the middle of prayer she says my dear husband don't you know that Hashem doesn't want them to die if you wanted them to die they will already be dead don't you know that you're supposed to hate the sin and not the sinner rather than praying for them to die pray for them to do CH and says you're right you're right I should pray for them do CH he pray for them do CH and they ended up doing CH so that means that if you see aat driving on Shabbat you see someone that's married to a non-jew you see a Jew married to non-jew you see a Jewish guy going to casino gambling you see a Jewish guy eating pork don't hate him the sin of course you should hate the sin but him itself him his personality don't hate him per se why he's not normally he's not making the sin because he hates God generally speaking most Jews are dear people and they're simply sinning because they're ignorant they're clueless of the law and even if they know law they don't know the consequence of violating the law so they're eating pork because their belly is of higher value to them then the Torah is if they're inar that's because their private part is their brain instead of their brain being their brain if they stealing in business that's because they've turned money into God which Many religious people do also so don't hate the sinner hate the sin unless unless the sinner is a if the sinner leads other people astray if the sinner makes fun of the Torah if the sinner leads people to Christianity or to idolatry or to atheism or to Muslims or Islam or he leads them away from God altogether for no reason or he leads them to nightclubs or he leads them to make all types of crimes against hem that's he does it like he knows this the sin he doesn't care he leads them astray on purpose he makes fun of the Torah he writes things against the rabbis that are he uh makes fun of God things like that then he's a then he's a somebody that leads people astray and a person like that it is a again it's a to pray for that person to die you pray for him to die without even knowing three times a day this is in your three times a day you pray for such people to die why cuz they lead people away from God why cuz these people are enemies so those people mitv to hate them mitv to wish for them to die but as far as regular average uh Jewish guy that is clueless just doesn't doesn't follow the no that guy you pray for him to do and He will hopefully will uh you know it's a uh sometimes they don't nonetheless it's something that you need to help a person like that that violate Shabbat or other things but not on purpose not to make God mad and so on you see his donkey in the hole go help him go help him why do you go help him because that could potentially be your opening to not only show that you don't hate him you hate his sins but not him uh but also further than that that could also be a way for you to connect to this person and show them the beauty of Judaism when they actually understand that we have rules for everything but that's to Mankind's benefit they realize how beautiful Judaism is [Music]
