1:19The sun, that if it's one degree closer to us, would burn the earth. If it's one degree farther from us, we're going to all freeze to death. He created a solar system so perfect that the earth is the only thing that's out of line with the rest of the planets. He created a world where every day you can see a miracle. It's called rain. Rain. Nobody thinks rain is a miracle. Everyone thinks, okay, rain, natural rain. What's the big deal about rain? Do you know that rain, when it falls, no one thinks it's a miracle because they're used to it? But if they actually think about it, rain drops, and no two drops ever touch. So all the way from the sky, tens of thousands of feet above us, there's a cloud that's holding all this water. And the water drops, and it's all by drops, little drops, individual drops. But no two drops ever touch each other. Ever. Ever.
2:20Until they get to the floor, they never touch each other. They never combine. Why is it such a big deal? Even if it's windy, Hashem can handle the wind too. What's the big deal? What's the big deal if two water drops touch? What's the big deal? No, no, no. Lightning is something completely different. It's just about the water. Just the water. Just the water drops from the cloud, and until it reaches the ground, or it reaches our head if it falls on our head, it does not meet another drop, ever. What is the big deal of that? That is... This is all in the books. You can read it, you can see the same thing. So here's the thing. What's the big deal with this? The big deal is that if two drops connect, then that means three drops can connect. And if three drops connect, that means four drops can connect. And if four drops can connect, you can create a puddle. And imagine if you're sitting there, taking your coffee, you're about to go to work, and a giant puddle of water drops from 30,000 feet on your head. Chas v'shalom, you're dead on the spot. Hail, hail also kills. Yeah, they kill. then that means that three drops can connect. And if three drops connect, that means four drops can connect. And if four drops can connect, you can create a puddle. And imagine if you're sitting there, taking your coffee, you're about to go to work, and a giant puddle of water drops from 30,000 feet on your head, chas v'shalom, you're dead on the spot. Gehinnom, Gehinnom also kills. Yes, it can be deadly.
3:49Why are they so big? Because they're meant to be. If they're used for that, they're meant to be. As a matter of fact, you remind me of a good story. One of the most important things we talked about on Shabbat is it talks about Yirat Shamayim. The most important thing that someone has to have is Yirat Shamayim, fear of God. More importantly, belief in God. How do we know? After Am Yisrael crossed the Sea of Reeds, Yam Suf, the Torah says, Am Yisrael feared Hashem, and they believed in Him and in His servant Moshe. So first it says they feared, and then they believed. Why? Because in order for us to believe in Him, we have to understand, to some extent, what He is. And if we understand what He is, then, of course, we're going to be scared. He's everything. Right? So now, in the Torah... what he is. And if we understand what he is, then, of course, we're going to be scared. He's everything. Right? So now, in the Torah,
