Welcome to our anytime viewers we are in par Masai we are during the three weeks and we are during one of the most trying times that have been in ER Israel since its Inception we know that we're in the middle of a big war here we know that we don't know what's going to be tomorrow may as the expression goes we're hitting Prime people at the same time as they're trying to attack US missile after missile after missile so I decided a perfect subject to discuss on this subject is in this week's like I said it has to do with everything to do with over here says when you go into the yard and you cross to what does it say that you should do I want you to go into the land and Conquer it and and and dwell inside the land we want you to be in is and you should go ahead and give the over to everyone it says over here the importance of going and moving to S Isel to be able to get there now is this a Mitzvah or not the truth is the ran here is of the very very much and he says this in many many places but especially here the ramban emphasizes the fact that there is a MIT to be living in in his MIT of his book of the MIT of the things that the ra left out one of the mitv that he brings is that there's a mitzah what we call moving to a is raan writes about this in very passionate way in many many places and he says the main places from our par because over here it says the importance of going into the land dwelling in the Land staying there and inheriting it he call he says it's a this is unlike Rashi that says it's a promise according to Rashi the simple understanding is based on the fact that it's a promise that is telling us that I'm going to take you into and you're going to be okay and the truth is the ram doeses not bring this Mitzvah the 613 mitzvah he doesn't bring it and there are many different some people want to say that is only until the G until we finished and once we were thrown out of the land that's it now there's not a Mitzvah to come back until we come back there's no Mitzvah of coming back that's how the miger brings brings a here the says that he asks on that he says what do you mean we find many places even nowadays that there are many that have to do with Isel and that there's for instance the is you're allowed to tell a to sign a contract to live in I'm not talking about those investors that like to buy 15 Apartments here I'm talking about someone who wants to buy and buy one apartment and aell in order to move sign a contract you can tell aoy even on shab to go ahead and do it because it's a to tell them to do such a thing famous we know that the is that if a woman does not want to go into Isel and the husband does or the other way around a husband does not and the woman does or if they're leaving in a Israel and one wants to leave one doesn't you're allowed to give the person to gets and with a without a depending on who the person is they are entitled a person who wants to live in arel has the upper hand there's also a mitz of living in and there's also an is of leaving there are many different places where these things are brought and that's what thean brings by us that there are all these special ideas of living in ER Israel and he says this with these words says not only is there Tove but he says if you ever want to move and Conquer a land and he says sh or if you want to go and Conquer some other land besides Israel he happens to he happened to forgot out one place Uganda like hero wanted to go ahead and move to Uganda no problem if that's it is you're over in say the MIT to come here if you ever go and conquer the land if the Jews decide to conquer Land This Is The Place work that well that they decided not to go to North Africa they decided to move over here that's the special Mitzvah that he that he says here and there's a Mitzvah on a on a constant basis to be able to do it like I said the ram doesn't bring it for specific reasons but there is at least according to the RAM used to be a MIT or maybe it could be that he holds this is a promise such as what Rashi says but not necessarily a command we see the importance of coming here now I want to point out something something extremely important here which this is what we want to address is how do you have to conquer this land the how and is it worth it we know that we live in a time that's very difficult to live here in a Isel know it's not simple and I deal many times with people who are making Aliyah on a constant basis and the question is always should I make the move or not make the move different people as different him and is it a place that's dangerous and this is what we're going to address but here we have it in our PK it says how do you do this r the way to live in this land is to drive out anybody that's in here when you're doing it you better do it and listen to those words now literally speaking means you should destroy the the things that they make but listen to the words mus the same Legend as a musk a musk get rid of the musks when you make the when you make the move when you come in you want to take over then go ahead and take over don't do any have jobs if you're going to do it get rid of the muses get rid of the get rid of the any that are in here and do if you're GNA do the job do it says Rashi what does it mean when it says to get rid of mus he says the the the the houses of worship you should drive them out the places that they they're busy doing things says get rid of all the Dwellers inside the land and then and then you could sit on it you'll you'll be able to live there but if you don't if you decide to leave the Min for whatever reason so then you should know you're not going to be you're not going to be the one that's going to be able to live here unbelievable from Rashi based on kazal obviously that says the only way that we'll be able to survive in this land is one and only by doing the job and doing it out of s we come into this land we pick only a Israel we don't pick anywhere else and we do it in order to live here without without anybody else to to be stepping on our shoes that's the way is and that's really what it says later on in the if you look in the next and if you don't get rid of them you should know you should know there're going to be like thorns in your thorns in your eyes what are thorns you're alive you're okay you're still kicking you're still moving it just really hurts every time ow ow stop okay I'll try to get okay we'll get rid of this oh there's another one that's how it is and it's going to be uncomfortable on your sides and they're going to be constant disturbance constantly constantly on on your tail what I expected to do to them what I wanted and my interests were to do to them I will do for you we should never hear of such things but we see such a phenomenon and I want to point out the writes over here this is not talking about the Seven Nations that he says we already know from Yeshua we already knew those he talking about all the nations or any time when a person decides to conquer the land he says that's what you have to be careful about this is an incredible incredible n that we see in our para about the way that it's supposed to be done and you should know in the time in 48 when they wanted to go ahead and make the war and and and take over is and many and others of the at the time were not so fond of it they said a lot of Jewish blood is going to be spilled and we know a lot of Jewish blood here was spilled thousands tens of thousands of Jews were SP were killed but besides that when each one of course his own world but each one even without that they said but if you do it you do it at if you do it finish the job we don't do any half jobs we do it at the same time that we have to go ahead and make sure that they're not around if you leave them here you're never going to be able to live here in piz it's never going to work don't do any of the side by side double States and all these types of funny things that you are interested in doing it's not going to happen and here we have it on a constant basis that all of a sudden the leftists are always trying to return as much land as possible if you look last week we spoke about the Oslo Accords we spoke about all their interest to be able to give back as much land as we can in order to have the double nation in this cute little land to be able to have and I have always wondered and it's bothered me haven't they learned their lesson don't understand what they're doing there no there's no one to talk to there's no other side why do they keep doing it so this is the I want to explain I want to tell you that in the time in 48 the Arabs were told to run away the leaders said leave we don't want you to be in the way during this war time that's a and b we don't want you to be under any Jewish Reign they told them to leave the land and yes 150,000 Arabs left at that time period and they are the they are the ones who the DPS that we know that are in in Jordan and other places that they ran to different areas and many were left and you know why many were left all of them would have left you know why because as benan writes in his own Diaries He says I begged them to stay we told them stay we'll live together we'll be friends just stay Don't Run Away don't worry about it we'll be okay of course the leftest side that's what that's that's where he's coming from and these ideologies have not left us they're still here to be able to say why don't we live side by side and it's always bothered me I've wanted to know why they do this where is it coming from what's the purpose and I'm going to tell you the reason why and that is because we have to realize there's a big difference between the way we think a religious Jew thinks about this country and the way they think and this is a little bit what I'm going to expand about today but I'll already give you the answer and from there we'll expand on that idea is that we know that the war that is deal that we have against the Arabs is nothing to do with a piece of land it is not a territorial War it is an existential War the war here is about a Israel it's not about an extra it's not about an extra few yards it's not about an extra piece of property it's not about an extra how can we go side by side in as much as it's an existential War there is no there is no trues there's no where in the middle that we can meet because each person knows a Israel is AR Isel every every every yard over here is ours it's been ours it's always been ours we're the ones who received it until the air is made up a thousand years ago that suddenly became theirs by some guy who decided to make up a nice story when that's the war there is no side by side why can't the leftist understand that because AR Israel is everything about territory it's nothing to do with some existential principle it has to do with a little bit more territory here and this the same M could have been if we lived in North Africa and we were fighting with some Africans to be able to figure out who's going to live by who side by side that's why they have no problem giving away land and no problem giving away the cotel giving the Western Wall away because as long as we have the pubs that we want to keep in Tel Aviv as long as we have the beaches that we have in yafo we're good to go so you have a little bit of this you have a little bit okay take the old city what's it's a tight old place anyways there's nowhere to walk over there anyways few stores what is that a funny wall with some grass going out of it what am I going to do with the place but it's not just the idea of religion it's not just that idea it's an idea that they can't understand this concept of an idea that's a place me because of the it's in place because of the essence of the place itself it's something that we believe in for the thing itself and that's why we are very into and the wrests and that's that's why the religious are always on the right side we believe in understanding that we're here in AR Israel to stay and we're here for all or nothing there's no 50/50s over here because there's nothing to do with 50-50 we're here for the land because this is our land it's always been our land it's been for the past 2,000 years I land just because you had a few thousand Arabs living here didn't make it not but like I said when you don't come from a perspective of tah when you don't come for such an perspective you can't when we understand this idea we start understanding such incredible things about what ER Israel is all about and whether we should be making the move to come here should we be making it here or not R writes in the end of he writes when he's talking about that it's all about to which is what we call a yearning a Relentless desire to be here and if you look in the Pari all the time the people are just begging for a little bit more space here now the truth is nowadays we also beg for space here everybody's you know trying to dig in a little bit of a hole here a little bit hole here to get an extra meter but over there as we all know the daughters of they said we have no problem that someone else should get it but if our family is not going to get it why should we give up a piece in the AES we also want a piece of the and gave them a tremendous praise a whole par was written because of the incredible people it was that they were and say for Yeshua you find over and over again how many were begging to get a little bit more land just because they wanted the essence of the land it wasn't extra property it wasn't as expensive as it was nowadays that wasn't the problem it was just the idea Z Dan n all going and conquering extra land in order to have a little bit more varel is a Savory taste when you have something sweet you just want a little bit more of it please oh so much fun I love it I'm so much enjoying it it's a tasty desire that we have in order to just get a little bit more and we also have in our par what do we have of course the B God and B ruven A very funny thing happens when B got ruen complain not complain when they come and they say that we just want to be able to stay over here on the other side of the yarden on the other side of the of the land inog in the area which is a very large area who is a very calm and and and put together person screams at them he gets furious at them he says what are you guys doing you're like the Morag you guys are causing so much Havoc he didn't even hear their plight after when he heard their plight he understood where they're coming from and he truth is he understood before also but he still knew what he was doing he screamed at them for a reason because he says when a person want something you'll settle with anything even a little bit just to be able to get there you'll beg to be there because that's all you care about if a person if you understood the beauty of is the you wouldn't be asking for this land even though you plan on going in 14 years you're going to help us conquer you're not worried about any big people you're not like the maragam you're scared of anything you have no problem but don't you have a lust don't you have a desire don't you have a uh just like an Intrigue to be able to get a certain yearning to be be able to get as close as you can to the to thees of course moshu got upset moshu was begging commit 55 just let me step in the land I just want to be there for five minutes he was yearning he such a desire to be there and here received a present you're going to get to go into the land and you said no you know that little spoiled kid that gets everything and then he just he's not interested he thrs it back in your face and you go oh when I was a kid Al I should be able to have such things that's why he was so upset M for for a just reason he said the yearning the lacking is not there the passion where is the passion and it bothered him oh so much and this is the beauty of a is and this is the beauty of being here when a person's here and yes it's not so easy it comes with a little bit of difficulties unfortunately and we know that's the way it is but we see all the time over and over again that that was the desire of everyone of our previous generations and it was 5,000 times harder than it is nowadays the who is a he is a student of the Von rights about the vagon as we all know the Von never left a basement she only left twice one one time was inquisitive people are not 100% sure why he left and he said one time everybody knew Von wrote his famous letter to his family to his wife and his children and he set sail to a Israel 250 years ago we all know what that means that means going by horse going by foot there's not even going to take it's a long trip for a man who didn't waste one second not 1 minute one second of his life a man who learned 22 hours a day literally 22 of 24 hours a day and here he is going ahead and taking a perilous trip to a dangerous country why because of the Affinity of Isel because he knows that there's a Mitzvah to be there and he wanted to spend those last days there as the v as the over there writes nobody knows why he never make it he ended up coming back he wasn't able to make it the trip did not succeed he had to a bought the trip we don't know why says the and he wouldn't tell us we tried so hard to get it out of us and we never found out the reason why but that's the beauty of these people who wanted to do it the ran the ran actually wrote as Garett ramban when he was ready to go on his trip toel and he made it the last two or three years of his life he was here I think two between two to three years of his life he ended up being able he died here and there Israel without a family without his children he ended up leaving everybody because he knew as they say he practiced what he preaches he was a person who gave the about it he's the one who wrote about the importance of living here over and over again in the Mitzvah and he went as much as he could in order to be able to to keep to his word in order to be able to keep to what what he was doing let me quote to you from this is brought in and over there they say used to always speak even though he was more or less raised here okay grew up in AR Isel almost they always spoke about his his love and his thirst and his desire for Isel and always to be here he had a grandson that had a bar mitzvah and had a in and he told him I apologize I would love to go and they really wanted the grandfather go the great Beloved the greatest of the to be able to come and he said I can't go I can't leave Isel he made a and he said I can't leave it wasn't it wasn't enough of a reason to be able to go the and pasin were during the N9 days now that he said really it's better for people not to take airplane trips during the N9 days which is a time of danger and even though he says airplane trips have become common place and we know it's no more than um when s of speak of driving a car he says l so you make a go after you take a plane trip you make a go so he was against plane trips however when abakar asked if he should fly from klar St Israel during the nine days he said yes definitely he said if you're going to come to Israel it's a big Mitzvah and that's worth taking the chance that's something that you should um that you should do and over there the that b was not even coming to live here he was only coming to stay for a month or whatever it was he was even coming to stay for a temporary amount of time even though there's a she that says if you come to Isel and leave for a temporary time you're not being you have to come to live there a like if you're just by coming temporarily but still even though even though said the to that person Anye any little amount that you can come ahead come around and get here to be able to come raise that's a great thing to he also brings over there from the that says that the best way place to D in is only when you're here all theas are answered as we'll explain soon why because there's no intermediary you're straight with ra the great raaji who lived the great from 200 years ago and says that when says a person who learns by himself it's not a good thing and it's considered a negative thing a person should always learn with a because you can't gain without learning without without a but still what does he say over there he says but if you're an Isel there's no there's no sword it's you can learn by yourself you know why says over here is where because over here there's a tremendous amount of that rains down on a person when he comes when he comes to do when he comes to learn in this beautiful land says over there also someone one time came to ask him a question he told him look I want to come but it's not easy it's very difficult to live here and I don't know financially I'm going to able to make it questions I here day and night financially it's not going to be simple should I still make the sacrifice to make the move so he answered him you know what right before Yeshua came into the land he killed mebon he killed the king ofon a place named konon means calculations he said when a person comes to a Isel you have to kill all the calculations don't make he says don't make calculations just come and do what needs to be done there's nowhere else to do it if you're coming he says this is the place to be it's a it's you're surrounded by you have a direct relationship with him and there's nothing better incredible listen to the words of the kuari now the kuari of course we know was the mear there was a king who was converting and he spoke to all the different religions and of course he spoke to the and the answered every question that he had the hardest question that he answered and he did not have an answer for you should know is when he spoke about Isel he's said if you're so crazy about Isel then why don't you move and he said you beat me you're right 100% should know the kuari is in the tests over here in Isel because of that line because he acknowledged the fact that yes I should be sitting in s Israel and and he won and you're right that's why he ended up coming terel afterwards but over there the Kari writes that when he asks him about why you guys care so much about a Israel he says because a person who's in a Isel is he standing directly connected with his creator without any types of intermediat is here from the beginning to the endem is always looking and is always looking at a Israel what does that mean he's always looking at a Israel just like the whole entire country the whole entire world is looking at a Israel everybody's eyes is always on a Israel is incredible because hashem's eyes is always here hasem focuses on us and therefore automatically every body else is looking at us he cares about us and he brings many places where it's lifting hasem Yi didn't want he was trying to get rid of Prophecy he didn't want to he didn't want to put B Israel in trouble how did he get how did he try to get rid of of Prophecy so it says in the got up for running away from hem how does it from hem say means to run away from Isel if I'm not in Isel I can't prophecy prophecy only comes when you have a direct connection with also when he was punished after he killed his brother it says what's that he had to leave Israel he had to leave the land of of of opportunity the land of connection the land of relationship with because every other country has an intermediate of course is everywhere obviously that's not the question but you're always going through an intermediary there's always a blockade there's something always you know as they say clogging up the clogging up The Path but here in is it's direct the relationship is direct you're right there and that's how thean and the and the in many places explain the most cryptic statement that's probably written in almost any gar as gar says in the end of it says whoever lives in if he doesn't he's a Godless man what are you live in because I live in in the United States because I live in Great Britain so suddenly I'm Godless you got to be kidding how could it be I understand why I mean there's a pretty bad over there but still to say such an expression to be able to do I'm staying I'll go move to Lakewood leave me alone and the from the how do I become you for God when you go to can when you move to Isel suddenly there I will become your G so say both the ran and thean and the truth is it's in many of such as the the and others they say this shots that you want a direct relationship with you have an opportunity you have an opportunity to hang out with one of the when you come to is someone offers you an audience with with with you're not going to take it you're gonna say listen I'm busy I got to go catch a FF I'm busy right now sorry I got to go out with my kids we're going to the ker for a nice swim we're going out to the beaches I can't I I'll try to make it up we'll take a rain check are you joking are you crazy you have an opportunity to have an audience with one of the G door and you're going You're going to leave it over of course that's the idea over here also that if a person has the opportunity to be have this closeness this relationship with the K he has an opportunity that he forfeits to have such a connection to be able to do it so then of course that's called a person who's you're going through a mediator instead of having a direct audience with to be able to build that direct that direct relationship the another they all come out with this idea and I'm going to finish with what it means to beem again the Kari expresses that the idea here that we're saying is you're when you're in you're in front of it sounds figurative it sounds exciting it sounds you know it even sounds authentic but it's a little bit abstract I appreciate the idea but what does it mean I'm with here I am sitting in beautiful listen to those birds chirping listen look look at the things behind me I feel like lifting hasem and in Switzerland not move to Switzerland go up in the mountain in the Alps over there you can feel lifting hasem but I'm going to tell you what theat is and this is based on the and with this we're going to finish this idea and that is that yes it says it says is gets you get fed from L you get you always are you're always you're always getting fed beautiful you're getting water from thing that never ends as opposed to the here we have we live in a land that's flowing with milk and honey and at the same time we know what the MIM tell us the based on the PK the PK says it's an a it says in it's a it's a land full of mountains and it's a land full of valleys and it's a land that's not so easy to travel and even every time they build a building area there's a lot of breaking that needs to be done it's made of rocks it's made it's it's it's not an easy place to to break down and it's also you're only going to drink from the skies not always are you going to be satisfied here the parasa here is difficult things Del living here is not easy it's not a piece of cake why is it so hard why why can't it just be easy why does that have to be the of it's almost like contradiction you're telling me it's so good and then you're telling me it's so hard the PK itself says it's hard to live here P itself says it's a rocky land it's a place with no partas it's a place that you have to go ahead and work hard to be able to get somewhere so you know the M answer all them over there you know what they say they say that there's two and I'm expanding obviously there's two different types of relationships you know there's those people sometimes they say we have good Shalom bite and they say oh great I'm so happy of good Shalom bite when you check into it the reason why they have good Shalom bite because they have nothing to do with each other they go one one is there one one works you know he works as 12-hour job maybe even learns a Seder he goes outad and learns a Seder and they see each other in a passing glance here and there they don't really want so much to do with each other they don't have so much to do with each other a little pass a few words during a a supper that they have together here and there maybe on chabbat they catch a catch a couple words with each other but they're two no Nomads walking besides each other great ches a real relationship is dynamic there's ups and downs there's a little bit of good and a little bit of bad there's things that you know always uh go back and forth it's an active relationship not a passive relationship that's the difference between people who are living in things are relaxed things are okay you know the par comes in things are okay but over here there is no more busy country than this country there is always something to listen to on the news it's a hard not to listen to the news when I was in America I never once listened to the news who cares there was nothing to do because you saw one little one more criminal robbed a bank in the middle of Utah come on who cares a car chase over here over there over here you're living in in action every day is busy sometimes it's a good day sometimes it's a bad day sometimes we lose one sometimes we get one there's it's a constant Act of relationship and it comes from difficulty but that difficulty makes us grow that's the place where we grow with hutner spoke lovingly ofel in the end of in the end of his days he actually came here and you know what he writes in one of his letters you know what he writes he said when he was here earlier he didn't come and he says the reason why he didn't come says R is because is it's bought with difficulty and when I was here in the beginning I didn't have any it didn't hurt it was pretty easy so he says these words it's a Sim I was in the land I was I was sitting in the land and I saw the sights of the land but I didn't be caim it I didn't own it I didn't make it a piece of myself so I figured this is the wrong time to be here you have to be here in a time when no maybe when it's not safe maybe in a time when it looks like it's not safe but a is protecting us it's safer here than I know there's anti- ISM there but it's mild come on compared to the missiles flying around here and the Miracles that we're living with but that's it with all what sounds so dangerous here we're being protected Hashem is watching us on a constant basis do you realize last week there was a missile that hits in a place in the north Mawa I think something like that is the place and it killed 13 young kids from the ages of 9 to 13 years old it's not it's not a good thing over 50 people were very critically injured you don't even hear about the injured people but they were also very critically injured by this one missile now I want to tell you something there have been missiles flying left and right in the north I don't know how much people in America are keeping up with this has been happening on a constant basis they're going house by house yesu by yesu every every place that there is they're going and throwing missiles it's been raining missiles there like there's no tomorrow and to make any comparisons I wouldn't say this on the news but you have to know this place and has been barely sat hate saying certain things the casualties have been very minimal and I I only say this for the message not for the Shalom but here it is a land in an Arab duy area who are good people I have nothing against them but L said they're not Jewish and landed the protection dissolved that I don't know what happened all of a sudden look how many people got killed these are serious missiles I tell you truth every time I hear the news I hear about missiles falling and say okay the missiles didn't do anything they all say no casualties no casualties yeah I guess the kakami missiles I guess they nothing too exciting and here it is one missile landed and it weaked Havoc so much collateral damage because the protection of is with Israel in a Israel that's just where it is we're being protected here and again I be so careful to always be careful of a but I just the messages I need to point out we had a massive Calamity that happened 7 months ago in October 7th in 1,00 people were killed but listen to this statistics 3,000 Mish 3,000 animalistic people that were insane nothing less than insane they also took pills these people were worse than lion absolute mugas and worse than that they had machine guns machine guns are Relentless and they killed 12,000 people you know how many there were 3,000 Arabs that made it over 3,000 they killed the third of themselves it doesn't even make sense if each one put one bullet in person you get 3,000 people at least 3,000 where is it's it's a crazy thing 1,00 people for 5 hours free reain till the Army came in and there were that's what happened 60 ballistic missiles that came from different types of missiles the statisticians professors I saw it myself said that it is almost impossible statistically that only 1% landed it doesn't make any sense because it came from many different facets it came from many different countries that helped and and and only and and these protection devices are 90% if not less that are able to to protect but are able to do this keep everything watching us taking care don't
