Transcript

0:12So the Gemara says that in, I believe it's Masechet Gittin, Onkelos, before he converted to Judaism, did a séance. And he brought down three neshamos to ask, because it's not allowed in Judaism to do a séance, but before he converted, he wanted to ask three neshamos if he should convert. So the first one he brought was Titus, Titus in English. That was his uncle who was a Rasha who destroyed or corrupted the Beit HaMikdash and Hashem punished them. She brought Titus, and he says, "Should I convert to Judaism?" Who are the leaders first? Yes, and who are the leaders in Olam Ha'emet, wherever you are? Who are the leaders? He says, "The Jews, the Jews are the leaders." and Says, "Should I convert to Judaism?" "Because now you're never gonna make it. It's too hard to convert and abide by all their laws. You're from royalty; you're from the Roman Empire. You're not gonna make it. We're not bred like that, by all their laws and everything. You might as well just torture the Jews so their God will give you a reward in this world." I

1:29He says, "Where are you? Where are you?" He describes a place in Gehinnom, the seventh level of Gehinnom. He tells him the punishment of what's happening to him. He says, "Every day they burn me into little ashes, and then they spread me all over the ocean in the seven seas. And then they put me back together. Shame on him." So then after that, he brings Bilam, and he says, "Bilam, should I convert?" He says, "Now you're from royalty. You're never gonna make it. Same thing like Titus. You're never gonna make it. Who's the leaders? Am Yisrael is the leaders. They have the truth. They have the Torah. No question asked. But you're not gonna make it. It's too hard. It's too hard to be a Jew. For you, definitely. You're a goy. No, it's not for you." And he says, "Where are you?" He says, "I am boiling in semen. A semen bath. Boiling semen bath. Hashem yishmor." Why? Why? So Titus, we know because he did his disgustingness in the Beit HaMikdash, and then he argued against Hashem, saying, "Oh Hashem, You could only beat me on land." Because Hashem started making major waves when he left the Beit HaMikdash, he went into the ocean, back to his country, and Hashem made big waves.

2:55Starts screaming to the gem: "Ah, see, you're like the god of the sea, like you destroyed the generation of Noach with water. So you only have power with the sea, with the ocean. Fight me on land," he says. "Fight me on land." So apparently even this Rasha Merusha knew the truth about Hashem, unlike today's Reshaim who don't know anything. And Hashem says, "I'm gonna send you my smallest creation." My smallest creation I'm gonna send you on land. Where did He send them? A little mosquito. He sent him a little mosquito that entered through his ear and stayed in his brain, eating his brain for the next seven years until there was nothing left. And when they opened up his head, they saw a living mosquito the size of a dove. Hashem yirachem. So now Bilam says, where are you? And he defines exactly where he is. Why? He says, because I was with my aton. I was with my donkey. I was with my donkey. So all of the seed that I wasted, I'm being boiled in it. The third one was Yeshu. He brought Yeshu.

4:21brought him and he says, "Who are the leaders?" He says, "Should I convert?" The Maharsha says, "Yes, you should convert." He says, "Where are you?" He says, "Also, he's being punished in She'ol, boiled in excrement, feces, and so on." He says, "Why? Why? Why are you being punished?" He says, "Because I said, 'Yes, you should convert.'" and... you should convert. So, I mean, there's something good about this guy. You should think first, who said, "Don't convert reshaim (wicked people)." Even again, on the reshaim, this one at least says convert, so you say it's good. No, he says, why, why, why are you being punished like this? He says, "Because I went against the rabbis. I went against the rabbis. People today don't have the inkling of an idea." I What it means to be a rabbi or what it means to go against the rabbi? If the rabbi is not a real rabbi, it's a mitzvah, it's right to expose the fake rabbi. It's a mitzvah to expose them. If it's a rabbi that's really a rabbi, has yirat Shamayim, has fear of Hashem.

5:42... tried to do good things, get yourself back to Hashem, to go against them. There's no stupider thing you can do. There's nothing—there's like, it is stupid, and then there's you. Lama, lama—let me give you, I'll give you guys an analogy. I'll give you now. Did you understand? So, imagine a king, a king, a king, and he only has one son. There's one son... Empire, and he has everything you could possibly imagine materially. He has le'echas of aliyah, of nachas, and everything. The shibud says, "Mine is the money, mine is the koach, everything is mine." But he has one son. The son went missing; he lost his way, and someone took him. And he said, "Everybody go find him, go find him, go find him, go find him." Nobody finds him. I Nobody finds them. They say, "You want a Chanukah party for that?" No, I don't want a Chanukah party. I want my son. "You want a Purim party?" No, I don't want a Purim party. I want my son. "What about some barbecue?" It's a barbecue. Give me my son back. I don't want the barbecue. Enough with the food. Okay, okay. "Listen, your honor. How about if I get you a nice jacket?" No, I want my son. I don't want a jacket. I have a jacket. I have countries.

7:06I don't want a jacket. I don't want to pour him a party. I don't want to—I want my son. And then this little guy, no one knows who he is, he says, "Hey, Your Honor, is this your son?" "Yeah, that's my son." He brings the son back. He brings the son back. Now this guy, nobody knows. What does Hashem think of him now? What does the King, which is Hashem in this story, what does He think of him now? He brought him back. Automatically becomes the most important bird on earth and person on earth, the same level as a son. Why? She brought a son back. No Chanukah parties. No pouring parties. No jackets. No drinks. No nothing. So to go against that person, if one of the other people tries to mess with this guy, you have to be crazy. You just saved the son. So that's, that's a, but I, that's, that's the analogy. I There's a funny story about three people arguing. One is a priest, one is a sheikh, and one is a fake rabbi. They have a debate: what do you do with the money that people donate?

8:27You know, everybody knows that people usually have positions there, but the Knesset, they have churches, they have mosques, they have all these things. They dafka go against the Torah in the easiest ways. What's the easiest way? Shlomo HaMelech says, don't be overly righteous. Don't pretend like you're Baba Sali. You're a Baal Teshuva who just started last week. Relax, okay? Just five years ago, you learned what Shabbat was. Don't be too much of a tzaddik. A lot of people say, "Oh, Kvoda Rav, I'm having a very big difficulty." Wow, difficulty. Wow, halachot Shabbat, taharat mishpacha, your wife doesn't want to be modest. What? What happened? You're thinking, I was thinking about it the whole Shabbat, Kvoda Rav, I was thinking about it the whole Shabbat. Wow, what a question this guy must have a sechel. Yeah, I'm thinking about this question the whole Shabbat. He's struggling, ruined my Shabbat for the whole time. Wow. He doesn't know, maybe he opened the fridge and the light was on, or the light was off, and he doesn't know. He ate chametz, it's yuck. What's this question? He says, you know, it’s not Shavua. He says Amalek came to attack. Amalek came to attack.

9:46Moshe told Yehoshua, Yehoshua bin Nun, go pick some people and fight against Amalek. And I was thinking all Shabbat, why is Moshe telling Yehoshua bin Nun to go fight? Why won't he go fight? That's the question. I ruined your Shabbat. That's it. Just read Rashi. What did Rashi say? Moshe Rabbeinu had a different job. He was a spiritual leader. He had to lift his arms. You get to lift his arms. So as long as the arms were lifted, everyone saw that he's part of the war, but also the spiritual war. It wasn't just a physical war. And if you read the Midrashim, you see that the war of Amalek versus Am Yisrael in last week's parasha, they say it's even a bigger war than what Gog and Magog is going to be. It wasn't a war of tanks and spears. It was a war of spirituality. Why? Because Amalek were mechashfim.

10:46There were wizards and different witchcraft. So they knew that on that day, all the people they sent to war couldn't die. They knew when people were supposed to die. They knew the timing. This guy, it's not in Shamayim, they're gonna decree he's not gonna die. So they sent him to war. No one can kill him now. So they sent all the people that can't die. How are you going to fight somebody that can't die? It's like fighting a terrorist today. Tell people why you fight a terrorist. You can't beat somebody that's willing to die. He already is willing to. He's happy to die. For him, his family's going to get a lot of money if he dies. It's his zechut for him, he thinks. Stupid, but that's what he thinks. You can't beat people like this. Unless you just annihilate all of them, put a nice atomic bomb in a nice area over there, you're finished. But they're not going to do it. Why are you fighting, wasting your time, wasting your soldiers, wasting your manpower? So anyway, if you just simply read what the parasha says, you see what's the question? So I'm asking this guy, "The whole Shabbat was wrong because of this? Just read the verse!" But what happened, really? He didn't read the parasha. He didn't read the parasha. He's spiritually lazy. He didn't read the parasha, but he wants to pretend he's righteous and...

11:59He wants to pretend like, oh, this bothered him so much, so maybe this can fast forward his teshuvah, his conversion, his whatever people are. And that's what Shlomo HaMelech says, don't be overly righteous, don't be overly righteous, relax. So back to our joke. So the priest says, what do you do with the money that people donate? And the priest says, I throw it up in the air. And then I have a circle, a nice big circle. Whatever money falls into the circle is mine. Whatever is outside of the circle, that's for God. That's for the community. So they asked the guy running the mosque, "What do you do with the money? What do you do with the money people donate? They donate a billion dollars a year to you people. What do you do with it?" He says, "I throw the money into the air and ta'ala. And I have a line on the floor. Whatever is outside of the line is mine. Whatever is inside the line is Allah's."

12:59Reform rabbi, they ask him, "What do you do? What do you do? What do you do, Mr. Reform rabbi? What do you do?" He says, "No, I send, I throw everything into the air. Whatever Hashem wants, He takes; what falls back down is back to me. I will tell you, when you have the... Religion turns into a business. You can't help people do teshuva. Can't help people do teshuva. So of course, money is necessary. The car is necessary. Things cost money. We live in a real world. We don't live in a fantasy world. But yeah, everybody has to decide what's their priority. So when you finally find someone that's willing to do the will of Hashem, wants to do the will of Hashem... And you decide, I'm going to go against them. It's foolish. It's stupid. Why? He's one of the few soldiers still alive. He's one of the few remaining soldiers still alive. It's not like there's an army of them. It's not like you can say off the top of your head, you know there are already 500 or even 50. 50 good ones. Ah, yeah, that one, this one, this one. You can't. It's very hard to find real people.

14:22So, to go against the few that are still left, it's crazy. That's why I always used to tell people, don't go against Rabbi Mizrahi. He is one of the few real rabbis out there. Unfortunately, when you're a real rabbi and a real leader in general, you're bound to have enemies. It's just a reality. It's the nature of the beast. You know, it's in anything in life. But in this particular regard, A person is creating a very, very difficult life for themselves because there are several different places in the Torah that mention the special protection that such people get from Hashem. Obviously, that protection is against those who go against them. So, it's a very foolish thing to do. Next question?
