have you ever gone through a hard time and just had that feeling of loneliness of being shunned of feeling a certain amount of isolation that nobody just understands what I'm going through with everything that I'm doing I just have no backing behind me and it just makes it all that much harder I would be able to get out of the situation if I just had that shoulder to lean on and unfortunately I don't have it similar to let's say a husband who's been working on himself he had certain issues in the past he had an anger problem he was a certain amount of a planer what we call Bor or he has problems with his and he's been working over and over again on himself that he needs his wife to go ahead and give him a little bit of backing a little bit of Praise a little bit of understanding for the progress that he's doing even though he falls sometimes but if she's there and only catches him when he messes up if she catches him every time he falters then he's never going to have any fuel to continue he's not going to be able to know how to move to the next step we all have that emotional need to be able to have someone behind us not to be on our own to be able to continue and move on to the next step we need someone behind us to give us that push in the back to be able to do it it's oh so important and here we have it we are inid in 24 2024 and we've been going through a very difficult war that we've been going through you know the Arabs have always been the big bully they've always been pushing us around they've always hated our guts they've always lied they've always killed us they've always terrorized us and they've always did all the problems and you know it doesn't really bother us so much we know it's a fact of life it's just the way it's supposed to Beal was our big brother from the past and he's still our big brother trying to abduct us and take advantage of us we're a little bit used to it but suddenly we are privy to a new phenomenon suddenly we are privy to some New Concept that's not completely new but something that just took a different level and that's this level of everybody being against us of course we've always known this phenomenon that we call anti-Semitism but suddenly we're in a situation where everyone is just on our backs there's nobody who likes us every times we try to protect ourselves they'll scream at us instead of them every time we get rid of a few of them and on the process we get rid of one of two of what we call quote unquote innocent people we all know how innocent they really are suddenly everyone's screaming at us everyone's saying you're you're ruthless you're incorrect stop the war just give it up it's not you're not you're not doing anything anyways just let Kamas live and it's not just a feeling of physical abuse of being pain physically and knowing that we're in big trouble living here but it's a lot more especially living in this country feeling a certain amount of emotional loneliness just a few a certain amount of solitude just being shunned by everyone nobody likes you they don't want you around don't you know that it's over goodbye we're just not interested and if I could say even more than just the physical Problem Like I said before it's an emotional stress it's something that could really put us in a it could really back get back on us it really can hurt us and it could puts them no lack of interest to continue it puts away a certain place and why is that happening to us why does K give us to such an extent we know we've always had pums but why to such an extent does K do these things so the answer lies in the fact that we just finished and we know the famous story of I don't have to go through the Shabbat that we're all familiar with but there is something to point out about you know what he was also lonely he sat in a cave for 13 years he had a son with him there was no one around when he ran away from the Romans he didn't even tell his wife where he was in in that maybe they would take advantage and make sure that she would tell them where he where he is so she didn't even know where he was nobody knew where was 13 years there was a big sign in the post office that said Wanted Dead or Alive with a picture ofai he was a man who was wanted with a big Ransom on his head anybody would love to get a hold of him and turn him into the police wow they would get a tremendous amount of money now of course that's a scary feeling it's a feeling of awe of year of fear that something that we wouldn't want to have but even more than that it's a lot worse than that it's a feeling of emotional loneliness of solitude of just a certain feeling of just being shunned there's nowhere to turn no one to talk to no one to do anything and it's a certain amount of an emotional abuse if I could say an emotional strain that was on not only that we know when he was there in the cave did him a tremendous favor and he did a miracle an open Miracle he made a river of water and he made a carab tree so he'd be able to eat and drink for 13 you'd be able to eat and drink for 13 years but as I saw some of the ma ask carobs couldn't you think of something a little bit more original if you're already doing a miracle let some watermelons grow out of the ground oh man just a few pears maybe a few apples some sweet apples something a little bit luscious like a peach or a plum carobs how does it I I almost can throw up from the from the feeling of my stomach of carobs for 13 years even eating even eating Caribs trees just stom like that it's just it's painful but for 13 years can't imagine what a person should go through not only that the gar over there in Shabbat gim adds another factor which is less known and that is as we know was buried in the sand was buried in the sand for 13 years he wanted to save his clothing so they shouldn't wear out over 13 years which you would only wear them on Shabbat so during the week you would stay buried in the sand in order that you would be able to to keep it keep the keep it stamina and believe it or not it says over there afterwards when he was trying to shower himself wash after the 13 years was up he was in excruciating pain full of cuts and bruises and and and and certain and his whole body was R was was riddled with a tremendous amount of of all these of all these of all these strains of blood going all over him and it really hurt him just a shower just to soap himself up and he was excruciating pain odd until his father-in-law the great said to him feel so bad to see you like this from shim I feel so bad to see them to see you like this after all this you went through and here I have to go ahead and see you going through such strain so it sounds like went through a similar situation to the one we were speaking about before also this feeling of isolation of difficulty so what's the answer why did he go through it so already answers the question for us the great answers the question over there you know what he responded to his father-in-law he said happy are you that you were able to see me because if you didn't see me like this you wouldn't have seen me to what I became 13 years he was in the beforeand the says that would that every time would ask a question could answer 13 answers to after the afterwards after he came out of the cave every time would ask a question answered 24 answers can I give the 24,000 R AA he was able to answer much more his yor was incredible and of course we know the great light that was given to us the great oror the zor from the L of zor is a beacon of light that was given to us the power of the cabala that we were able to be transferred from generation to generation I spoke about it in a separate sheer but that came only through the power of the Cave of the isolation of the separation he became a funnel a sponge a Cabo a receptacle to be able to receive this Torah which a normal human being would not have been able to receive the fact that he separated himself from everybody else the fact that he put and geared himself only to One Direction to one place and that was to he made himself into a receptacle that was able to receive things that no man will ever be able to receive again that no man would be able to reach such Heights and that only became because of this tremendous connection that he was able to make with the k s to speaking with this we finish it was a that he had with hem he was withm when a person wants to have a relationship with a spouse there's a that we need to have that's how we make the bond you have to have an individuality between the two nobody else no no noise from outside no listening to all the Styles and the sports and the communication and all the news that's going on outside no other interests except for except for when you make that relationship with your spouse when you make that connection that's the way that you build a ker just like the Torah was given the Torah was given on moshu 40 year 40 days just him and with nothing else 210 years of Oppression 40 years with no food no drink just him and that was the and here we have the the T was given to as that happened when he had that special individual relationship with hem in the and who else none other than who is the man of when we speak about the Tora but what about the man of all of was written by our great 26 years he was shunned by his family all alone by himself out in the woods and what did he do he composed the whole entire he was able to put together all the the relationship the connection that we have with and again it comes from all the same place you want to make a new Bri you want to make a metamorphosis you want to make yourself into a transformation that we never had before sometimes we need to be what we call in in isolation and separation why in order just to build that CER with to be able to relate and connect to hm and that's the answer to our question Hashem put us in a situation that yes here in s Israel we're all alone I don't even know if you feel it as much in America as we feel it here but you feel this connection that it's it's just us everyone's against us every time we do something this even America the blinking and all these funny people everyone's just getting and screaming at us from left to right and it only comes because of this Ron that wants us to be just us and him but when we have that that will be the beginning of this Bri this metamorphic that we bring
