What's The Punishment For Wasting Seed And Intermarriage in Judaism?

0:01It says, "Give not your strength to women, and let your conduct not destroy the protocol of kings." In this Proverb, Chazal tells us that here we learn about the sin of wasting seed. Wasting seed, unfortunately, is a politically incorrect topic in today's world, even though it's one of the most important for us to know. Why? It's one of three sins in the entire Torah that get someone, if they do it intentionally, into the seventh chamber of Gehenom, which never ends. It's eternal suffering. Just like there's eternal greatness and amazement, there's also the opposite. We're not going to go into the details. I don't want to depress you. Each chamber gets worse than the other. But each of them ends, except for one. The first six chambers end at some point—a thousand years, a million years, a billion years, whatever. But it ends at some point. Except for chamber seven. It never ends.

1:22Very depressing. There are three sins. For anyone who doesn't know, one of those three sins, as we just discovered, is wasting seed on purpose. This is a problem that even yeshiva kids, who send me emails on a daily basis, have because no one teaches them what it means. Baruch Hashem, we're not politically correct, so we made approximately five hours' worth of shiurim about the topic. A lot of people started doing teshuva, so we said, okay, let's give some more details. In here, King Solomon, the wisest man of all time, tells us that every time that you're with a woman, you're giving a part of your strength. Obviously, every time you're with her intimately. Obviously, he's not telling you not to be with your wife. What he's telling you is that if you're going to spend too much time with women, you're going to destroy Your future. You're not going to be able to be successful in life because even a king has to have a protocol. A king has to have a system. A king has to have control. But now the rest of Chazal tells us something even more interesting. In the Gemara, it says that someone that's with a non-Jew is violating multiple sins. The first one is wasting seed, which is not good. The second one

2:47This is Masechet Sanhedrin. The second one is being with a non-Jew. The third one is being with a nidah, which anyone that knows about the issur of being with your wife without her going through family purity and immersing in the mikveh, it's actually a worse sin than being with your own mother. That's how bad it is. I'm being graphic because that's the only way people get the picture. Incest is disgusting to people. Good. So wake people up, maybe they'll go to the Mikvah instead. And last but not least, consider it like you've been with a harlot. Why is the non-Jew getting such a rough insult? Because being not Jewish is fine. You could be part of Chasidei Umot HaOlam, the righteous among the nations, have Olam HaBa, like I said earlier today, be like Job. No problem. You all have to just follow simple rules. You have the seven Noahide laws, which are all rational and logical. And then you have anything else that makes sense for anyone to keep. Like, for example, respecting your parents as part of the Ten Commandments. But it's not part of the seven Noahide laws, yet they are still obligated to follow it. Why? Because if you don't respect your parents, you're not going to have a civilized society. There are roughly about 50 total rules. So now, since someone has such an easy opportunity,

4:14We call it in the sports world a lay-up opportunity. To go to Olam HaBa, all you have to do is observe a few mitzvot because God said so, not just because it makes sense, and you can enter Olam HaBa. However, then you go and ruin it by killing a Jew, and this is why Hashem gets very upset, because a Jew is not allowed to be with a non-Jew. So now... The non-Jew, whether it's a male or female, is charged with murder.
