I'll tell you an inspiring thought one of the main prayers that we say during the uh High holiday season specifically during the days of days of penitence iso we refer to Hashem as our father and as our King so why do we refer to both of these titles now the primary concept is hashem's kingship we ask rule over the entire world is the is the coronation of the king it's Hashem renewing his interest and being a king governing over his creation but kings are also authorities and there's some degree of rigidity that comes with that Authority uh to the extent that we're told that that a king who forgo his honor uh his honor still stands he's not allowed to forgo his honor in other words it's the honor of the position so um really by All rights being that Hashem is a king if somebody transgresses the Edict of the king meaning we don't do what we were told clearly in uh in sh to do the king really can't help you it's uh I'm very sorry butus I mean treason is a high offense so high crime and it's true but the good news is that Hashem is a Malo he's not just a king he's our father the king and of that a father and a mother for that matter who forgo the honor due to them even though even though it's one of the Ten Commandments yes we know that is a Mitzvah it's not just a Mitzvah it's from The Ten Commandments we know that yes yes and yes and nevertheless a father and a mother have a power that a king doesn't have which is they can forgo the honor due to them now they don't forgo the honor due to them because they're timid or because they're trying to win their child's approval or their people Pleasers it's not coming from weakness they forgo honor do to them when that is the right thing for their ability to help their child a parent job is to help your child to grow to move from level to level and there are times when setting aside our honor is advantageous for our ability to do our job as parents and to help our children grow so Hashem has that power Hashem definitely is a humble humble King he's a fatherly King Hashem sets aside his honor and he allows us the ability to come back home Time After Time After Time and if we can emulate even a fraction of his compassion and his forgiveness I think there will be a lot more peace in everybody's homes hey this is shase tab you were just watching a clip from this class if you want to get the full context the full class that this clip that you just watched was from you watch right here click right here here
