but the local rabbis are sometimes not scared the local religious people are sometimes not scared an entire generation of secular people is not scared how come can you can anybody give a legitimate reason of why they're not scared I think it's lack of knowledge or lack of belief so maybe they don't know about does anybody here not know who moshebenu is raise your hand everybody knows Moses everybody knows Moses right everybody knows okay so surely the people that don't believe in genome and Punishment and so on also they know is now I don't have to justify moshebenu being righteous I don't have to qualify him everyone knows even the guim even the secular even the anti-god people is and even they agree that is amazing so now you tell me this in this week's says the following there's a verse in the parasha well command the children of Israel and say to them when you come to the land of Canaan this is the land that I shall fall that I shall fall to you as an inheritance I mean this is the land I'm going to give you that says why is adding the word this zot oh we learn from here like something called that we have a certain Superfluous word here that means this word is used somewhere else we have something to learn from this word says here that the first thing we learn this teaches us that the Holy One blessed is he when he says this that means that he's showing what he's talking about not just telling him says this is the land that means he's showing him the land like he sees everything but also he's showing him everything that was and everything that would be meaning all of what happened until now in the past from the creation of the world and everything that's going to happen until mashiach comes until the end of the world that's what he's showing he shows them that she uh Samson would rise from Dan from the from the tribe of Dan and Barak the the son of avinon will rise from naftali and similarly he shows him that each generation and it's uh its expositors as people that teach during that generation each generation and its judges each generation has its leaders each generation has its Sinners each generation has a righteous people so he shows them all of the righteous people that are ever going to live all the wicked people that are ever going to live the crimes the the good things he shows them everything to me God says but also we learn that this word this is also used somewhere else which is this is the land Hashem system this is the land that I swore to Abraham saying I will give it to your offspring I have let you see it with your own eyes says what's it see it what does it mean see it once they see the land why it now see it doesn't mean the land this teaches us the midrash says that's it says he sees this who's punished in this place the wicked ones the ones that rebel against me and they will go out and see as it says in the uh the prophet Isaiah the last verse chapter 66 verse 24. where it says and they will go out and see the corpses of The Men Who rebelled against me for their Decay will not cease and their fire will not be extinguished and they will lie in disgrace before all of mankind so this is one of the verses that's a sourceful it says that there is a form of punishment that is forever began to become petrified of gainon became afraid of genome I'm not going to tell you what's there I've already done that in different Julian but the point here is no right you don't have to be a genius they know that who calms them down and says I have let you see it with your eyes but you shall not cross over to it you're not going to go in there don't worry meaning that Michelle Obama was scared enough that he thinks he's going to go there even though he knows that he's not a bad person but he doesn't know to what's to which extent maybe he's going to punish me that I didn't sanctify his name maybe it's not enough that he's not going to let me into an energy slave maybe I still have to suffer on the way to heaven I have to get burned a little bit he's scared even of being there for a single second because he sees what it is it's no longer a teachings it's a reality when someone says no don't do this or else you can lose money okay you may listen you may not listen why because so far it's theoretical don't do this or else you can get sick you may listen you may not listen why because it's theoretical but if he says hey don't do it you see him he died that's gonna happen to you if you do it no more questions I'm never gonna do it take it back I don't want to go why because you're seeing it's real something happened foreign [Music]
