Well only a little piece on uh from the A D on Schwarz because uh Schwart is uh is connected to uh Pesa and uh the Omer.

SPEAKER_01 0:25

So it's Pesa. The Jews got this uh tremendous confusion of uh energy because they didn't deserve it, they didn't prepare the uh the vessel for it, it went away. They after it went away, and because it went away, and because everything that happened was on a cosmic level, it was the Jews did not make any connection. Jews didn't make any connection to what was going on, no connection, no connection talking about Pesa, what did they do? That was necessary, it was it was necessary because if not it wouldn't have worked for them. We have to understand that everything that happened in uh in Egypt, if the first four firstborn of the Egyptians were killed, the firstborn of the Jews were not killed. If the if the Egyptians drank it, the water turned into blood for the Egyptians. The blood stayed water for the Jews. All of these things that were happening were not happening, were not happening because the Jews deserved it. Was not happening because the Jews were deserved. In other words, what what uh Hashem did at that point, what Hashem did at that point, I want you to sit down. What Hashem did at that point was to return the world, to return the world to a world of Asahayim and Aesadat. Asahayim we know means the world of certainty, like we discuss in the morning. When we speak of pollution, and we speak of uh air being polluted, or we air, which is uh Zion Pin, which is central column. Which is uh the resistance factor. Resistance factor, the uh dominion of of right column and and restriction takes over. So, how could there be pollution in the air? Should ask that question. How could there be pollution in the air? The same way we asked this question: how could there be pollution in the water? Water is a right column element, that's a right column element. Then, where does the pollution come from? What do you mean where pollution comes from? If you pour, if you pour uh chemicals into a glass of water, poisonous chemicals into a glass of water, and it mixes up with the water, it's poisonous water. If the water has such a power of right column, which means what? Force of the Lord, force of our shem. Why doesn't it immediately vaporize it, neutralize it? Why does what how does water get polluted? Darkness, how it stays, darkness, what what happens? I could have an auditorium the size of a football field. Light a match. What happens? Can you say there's so much darkness in the room that this one little match should not be able to light up the room? Because the darkness is so big compared to this little match. How does it become light? The whole auditorium with a little match. Why doesn't the darkness close it out? There's so much. The answer is the answer we're learning all the time, is that when you have a force that's that works? Let's not measured anymore in how big it is. How big it is. What does it depend on? On one thing. Is the force working? Or has the before been told not so much? What do you mean not so much? Like electricity. When it has to come into a five-wet bulb, what does the five-wet bulb call electricity? So that's all I want. Wait a minute, electricity can start a generator. In the age of Earth, in the period of restriction, the force can't work beyond that which is given permission to work. It can't work more than that which it was given permission. So, in other words, in our world, there is limitation. There is limitation placed on the power of the force. Therefore, we might even imagine if it's the room, a whole room, while it doesn't, the darkness doesn't cover it up and or or or or squeeze it out, doesn't do that. But but it is limited. It is limited. So what's the difference? A little light or a lot of light. The answer is that because in this world the light is governed by us, meaning the 5-watt bulb even can tell the electrical current, don't give me more than 5 watt, don't burn me out. That's the reason. Why more doesn't come in? Because and that it would be it would burn us out. Bread of shame. Why would we be burnt out? Same like we say here. A lot of people come here, they leave, they get burnt out, we say. But we say the people on the outside, not all of them get burnt out. So the difference is between Zmanyimotarashia today and what it was 300 years ago. It's true, 300 years ago, people weren't burnt out. But when Abd Mazulai said we're allowed to learn Kabbalah, why did he go, why did he say Hutzrah Zaida were allowed? Oh, we're allowed. What do you mean the others, the the ones from before weren't allowed? The answer is when uh Mazulai said that Hutzah Gzeda, the decree that to learn Kabbalah, was taken off, what he meant was the message he was told was listen, the days that the light can be told, uh 5%. Oh no more. Things are alright. The fact that the Jew, the last 2,000 years, had a move from place to place it was hit over the head all the time because he didn't have the light. But it was more convenient for him to be able to tell the light, listen, light, the Jew, don't give me so much. Stupid. Without the light, you know what's gonna happen tomorrow. They're gonna drive you out of this country. If you had more light, they wouldn't drive you out. Why are you settling for less? But settle for less is more comfortable. Because to settle for more, it requires what? More restriction. Comes the age of aquarius, the manual shia. Light doesn't ask no more. Light don't ask it. That's why. As many, uh whatever the account is in the Beta Micdash, hey, who on Beth amigdash, a hundred thousand they took all they took away into captivity. They're different accounts. Six million didn't perish then. Six million didn't perish. And also we have to understand there was such a small concentration. How big is Jerusalem? How big is Israel? Two by four. So they grabbed whatever there was. There weren't six million Jews in Germany. There weren't six million Jews in Poland. They brought them from all over. They brought them from all over to bring them together and put them into a gas chamber. It wasn't that they killed him. Listen. They didn't kill, why did they shoot him down wherever they were? Why not have to bring him to a gas chamber? What would it be if they just shot him down? So someone wanted to say, some brainstorm wanted to say, well, if they brought them all to the crematoriums and maybe they keep it quiet, but if they started shooting Jews down all over, that means they didn't shoot Jews down all over. Shut Jews all over. Without the light, the Qurban Beta Migdash came. Without the light in our day, Qurban has to be. Has to be? Why does it have to be? Because, like we say in the morning, the or Hashem is really at fault. It is his fault. Why is it his fault? Because he's because when uh Abraham Azalai said, he was telling us the message he got, that there is such a tremendous amount of light that's coming out now. That if you don't prepare yourself with this, don't prepare yourself with this, you're gonna get burnt out. You're gonna get burnt out. That was Hutra Gzeda. That's why it was Hutraq Zeda. Because the light is here in its intensity. The light is so powerful. The light is so powerful that it's burning out water, it's burning out food, it pesticides, all these things that are pollution, are coming from where? Because the light wants to come, and the light is coming, and if we don't prepare the vessel, everything is gonna get burned down. Like in Germany, everything got burned down. What happened on Shuad? So what happened in the in uh in uh Salaim? Jews got this tremendous surge of energy on Pesha. That's what we connect to. What happened? Why weren't they burnt out? Brother Shay Brother Shenzo asked the question. You gotta get burnt out. How come the phrase born weren't destroyed? Not the phrase burned, but weren't destroyed. What does Zower answer? He gave e of. Sower asked the question. He said he gave him e oath. Uh you remember that uh that's his juva. Gave him a yolf, so he compares it like uh like a shepherd has sheep and the wolf is coming. What does he do? He takes the weakest ones, feeds the uh feeds the uh wolf one or two, meanwhile, while he's busy with them, they run away. They run away. That's the remember that that was the Zoascupa. Actually, it should have been burnt out. Because the only way they could get out of Egypt was with this tremendous amount of light. Why didn't they get burnt down? So the answer is because of Eeyore. He gave the light, like La Havdel, the wolf, he gave him someone else to be busy with. What? Yes, yes, the strongest one, not the weakest one that he can battle with it. That's right. That's right. What does that mean? The light still came. What do you mean? He brought the light into the battle with eel. If we're talking about a shepherd and he gives the strongest sheep to keep them busy until they can run away, we understand. But we're talking about light. What do you mean he he gave him eel? The light, the light goes only in one place. What does it mean? Why won't they burn out? What? A Satan is burning out. What what does Satan mean? What does Satan mean? Like a little electric boat? If I put a 220 current into a 110, burns out. So we say what burns out, because then the Clepper comes. It's getting more than the thing can handle, and it also wants. So there's a protective measure. Like in the boat. So the Cleeper shouldn't get it. Right? It cuts it off. Cuts it off. Same thing here. Here he gave him somewhere it could go to Eok. And meanwhile, the Cleeper also didn't get because he was burnt out. He was the one burnt out. What about the rest of the Jews? What why were they entitled not to be burnt out? Why were they entitled not to be burnt out? Well the answer is in the answer is in the Torah. What the Bishimon, when he answered that kind of uh answer, he was giving us not he was giving us an answer not why the Jews weren't burnt out, but how was this possible? How was this possible? There had to be a runoff of the energy. That's what he wanted to say. But why weren't they burnt out? There was too much for them to have. The answer was. Answer was. When they slaughtered, that's why they slaughtered the uh the the uh sin. They slaughtered the lamb, took the blood, and according to Zoo, they took the blood of Mila, put it on the doorpost. Put it on the door post. That's all they did. That's all they did. And also, they did a little restriction with the masa. Right? So little was done. But that was enough. That was enough. That was enough. Get all this energy and put a little blood on three doors and the door post uh the two of the door posts and the and the uh the top. And do a little restriction with the bread was enough. And because he provided for a runoff, someone else should get burnt out. Someone else should get burnt out. This is what happened, Ashwar. What did they do? They do the Sri Rat to Omna. Did the Jews get better? Did the Jews get better? They said, Nasavanishma. Remember? I mean, the way you learn in the yeshiva. Jews said, God, whatever you have to tell us, we don't even want to hear it. You say it's good for us, it must be good. We know that's not true. Why? Because he had to bend over the mountain, bent over Mount Sinai, put the Jews in over there, he said, listen, if you don't accept the Torah, Shum Teh, Fura Tam. So what does it mean? That he didn't. That they weren't there, that they didn't completely understand. How do we know that they really weren't there? For two reasons. Number one, because it says he had to put them into like a sandwich. It's about bent over, the Jews were there, and he would close them up, they didn't accept. So it's an indication. What's the other indication? Forty days later, what'd they do? What'd they do 40 days later? Make a golden calf. I mean, would we? We're so spiritual over here, right? Nobody more spiritual than us. Would we make a golden calf after for 40 days? Would we make a golden calf after 40 days? Of course not. Who would do such a thing? Would we would we tell God, would we tell Moshe? Would we tell Moshe uh after after Korah? The Jews said, we want to know if it's Aharon or is it Qorah? Who should be the Kohen Gado? Right? What happens? Shem says, I'll set down a fire. Set down a fire. You'll know which which sacrifice I want. That's the one I want. In front of all the Jews, everyone saw it was Aharon they want. What happened the next day? The next day, not a week later. Moshe, what'd you kill the Jews for? Moshe opened up the uh ground and Kodak fell into the into the ground. Who did the earthquake? Moshe? The answer is they were not spirit. Even on Hashinai. Even on Hashinai. They went through the whole om. They did what they had to do. Was it tell us? That on Hassina there was Bila Mohamed Vansa. How could they be Bila Mahvath Vanessa? Death was no longer gonna exist. How could it be? What'd they do? They counted the omer. We also count the omer. What was there? What was there? It's not understandable. Why was it like that? So we learn a little from the audit and he'll he'll give us the answer. Actually maybe we'll learn to use all first. What is what is this uh any other short? Uh if I uh we should get the calm I'll actually all right we'll stop at the question. Uh the food is here, so we'll we'll we'll eat we'll go downstairs and we'll see that. Yeah. Alright, we'll eat first. Okay.
