foreign [Music] was communicating with him and that that wasn't him going crazy [Laughter] um so the what we said earlier today is that when the king shows up everything is quiet in essence the point of that was that when the king is there everybody knows everybody knows now what's the biggest difference between Judaism and all of the other religions the difference is that while all of the other religions as promised by God all of them were started by a single person whether it was Mary having a dream that that God entered her through her ear and therefore gave her birth to little Yoshi or it's a thereby starting the whole Christianity or it's Muhammad that was illiterate uh meeting with the the uh by himself in the desert meeting the angel Gabriel and telling them all of the secrets of the Quran or it's a Buddha getting the light seeing the light all of these other religions every single one of them they all claim to have talked to God but it was always as God promised in the Torah it was always started by one person Judaism on the other hand is the only religion that was started at Mount Sinai where kadoshburgu for the first and last time unfolded and uncovered himself in front of millions and millions of people and everyone knew including the non-jews that that's what happened that Hashem spoke to amisely spoke to everybody else and one of the strong arguments that Judaism has against all of the other religions that claimed to be a continuation of the Torah I.E the Quran as Islam or the New Testaments Christianity is that if the New Testament or the Quran was a continuation of the revelation of God then surely the the major event that happened in the past at Mount Sinai would be repeated again at least as much if not bigger meaning when God wanted the whole world especially the Jewish people to know that he is the god of the Jewish people and he is giving us a book called the Torah he made sure that it was big enough that no one can dispute it because he wrote things in the Torah about the people that were there not just the people that died he didn't just write about the weren't there in Mount Sinai he also told them things about the people that were living that were alive there where there's verses in a Torah that Allah tells Allah all of you heard God's voice all of you so if somebody says listen and hear God's voice there's a mistake in it to us somebody would have said something so the point is that Hashem when he gave us the Torah he wanted to make sure that everybody knows indisputable that God is talking and uh and he's talking to millions of people with the other religions they started with an individual in essence it's all Blind Faith everybody just follows based on Blind Faith that you know hopefully she really did have that dream and she's not really a prostitute hopefully he really did have that dream and he's not what I high in hashish and hopefully he really did have that light and it's not just uh you know some the sun you know it's just hopefully everybody's working on Blind Faith and billions of people are relying on this blind face now which means that when God wants to show you himself he makes sure that it's indisputable and it's undoubtable right so avram talk to God how did he know it's not that avraham knew based on his own intellect but rather God made it so that it was clear as day it was clear as day that it is God that's talking to him and nothing else and one of the main ways that he understood that it's God talking to him is that Hashem did certain things that only God can do whether it be saving him from Nimrod threw him into the fire uh or it was the other Miracles that happened there where uh Hashem fixed his uh his wife's uh uterus in essence put the uterus back in her body or made his wife uh uh made his wife's body go back to when she was 20 years old in an instant and so on and so forth so Hashem made sure that it was not only clear to Allah but it was also clear to others that it's God that's talking to him and not simply him you know being high uh why because when God is talking to you he's going to make it clear you're not gonna think you're crazy you're not going to think you're crazy it's going to be as clear as the day to you now I recommend you know there are some people that say listen God spoke to me God spoke to me and you know what you may be right God may have spoken to you but my suggestion is keep it to yourself why number one No One's Gonna believe you and anyone that does probably think God speaks to them also so I recommend if God spoke to you keep it to yourself that's my recommendation um and uh generally because it's not you know it's possible God spoke to you and if he really spoke you would know for sure you wouldn't think you're crazy if you think you're crazy most likely it's not God talking to you most likely it's just your imagination or maybe a demon uh likes to mess with you a little bit which you know they like to have fun with people sometimes um they do they do they do the demons can come to you in all types of forms they come to you as your mother they come to you as your father they come to you as your cousin they come to you some big Sage they come to you and you have a dream somebody says it's really a demon just likes to mess with you it happens but uh point is that if it's God I promise you you wouldn't have any doubts because if God is talking that means he wants you to know he wants you to know he wants you to know that it's him so I believe that when it came to avram because an entire people were dependent on this conversation and this relationship that Abram had uh it had to be as clear as day and that's where there was many many Supernatural things that happened uh the uh uh when he uh brought the sacrifice to avram and whenever the sacrifice to Hashem uh and there was a if you look at the midrash there's all types of spiritual things that were happening there I uh special Spirit if you will a wind went through the animal you know there's all types of other things that made it as clear as day uh that it is God that's talking to him and and not simply his mind foreign
