0:06You're never going to be a good Jew. Simply put, the Chachamim say that if you don't learn Hilchot Shabbat, you're definitely violating Shabbat. It's not a question of if you're violating Shabbat; you're definitely violating Shabbat. Somebody asked me today about this issue with the Goy Shabbat. I asked, what do you mean, Goy Shabbat? He replied, well, you know, you have a Goy that works for a Jewish organization, and you tell him what to do. I explained that you don't have to tell him what to do. He goes, "What do you mean? Everybody tells him what to do." I said, "What do you mean you tell him what to do? What do you tell him to do? You tell him to turn on the light?" He says, "Yes." I said, "You're not allowed to." He goes, "What do you mean? But the entire community is doing it." I said, "Well, the Torah says you're not allowed to tell a goy to do something that you're not allowed to do." So he says, "So what's a goy Shabbat?" I said, "The goy Shabbat that works for you, he's turning on the light for himself."
1:19So it's very important to know that before you tell somebody what to do, whether he's Jewish or not Jewish, you should know that if you are not allowed to do it, you're also not allowed to tell somebody else to do it. This is a very simple way in which people who are religious might actually be violating Shabbat right now. Because they don't know this stuff, because they don't study it. So learning Torah, Rabotai, is very important. Every Jew has to do it. There are no exceptions. It doesn't matter if you donate a billion dollars a day to yeshivot, you still have to learn Torah. Because without learning Torah, you're never going to know. You're never going to know how to be a good Jew.
