Hey Chevra, hope you're doing amazing. Today is Friday, Erushabas Parshas Bamidbar. We continue day four. Hakse, Pelo Yo Itz Vatranus. Let's jump right in. Umidas Vatronus Babai Stricharaba. We've been talking about conceding, being able to be generous with your money in terms of how you relate to your money in general outside of the whole, but now the Pelayoat is going to turn your attention into the house, one of the most important places in a person's life. The meat of Vavatranos in a house is so necessary. He gives us Ya Lang inin Hashalam. It's like as valuable as a diamond for the sake of peace. The eventil ininhava, and it's like a precious gem for the sake of love. How precious is Vatranos when it comes to those who are with him, his family members, Mesum Shalom in the Khaverob Ishto, it gives peace, it provides peace between man and his fellow man, and especially man to his spouse. It makes us run away, meaning it saves us from argumentation, we'll call pshan tchazava. And the love will cover things up. Through giving, a person becomes greater. How good is your portion? We don't even understand and its true value. He's not loved down here and he doesn't look so good up there either. His house is not up to par via revelayinbe. People are gonna be pushed away from him. Somebody who's a stingy person, it's going to lead. He's a confrontational person. He causes sin, Vikumamonosh Lomidaito. He takes money that's not his voice. Come and learn. I'm so giving with my money. I give to every single Mishlach. I give, I'm so generous, every organization, every campaign, I'm giving, giving, giving, but then I'm not having enough now for my home. That's a terrible thing, yeah. Their life comes first. And you have to be on the same page with your family, with your spouse. Now, if a person is overindulging in his own home and not giving out, well, that's not good, m that's not good either. It has to be the right balance, like anything, a healthy balance. Instead of putting his money towards these over-excessive indulgences, he should do it towards a mitsah, something that has real value. I in my poverty have prepared. He w minimized his own personal expenses. He minimized his royal pleasures. Because he was gathering for something, he was preparing for something bigger, better. The taira has pity on the money of the Jewish people. He still shouldn't give more than 20%, more than a fifth. Shema Yanni, perhaps he can become poor. Allah's come, shus. Um how much more so if this is regarding tzadaka, a person has to not overexpend, over to meaning you shouldn't have overexpenditures as it relates to other shus items, things that are just, you know, things in his home. So for example, um the sorry, right? You find some wealthy people that they're just like almost like this throwing money away. This person has to have proper intellect. Instead of overindulging in excessive needs that they don't really need, it's more excessive wants, not something that they need. That extra mulah, that extra money should be given to those who are less than, to those, not who are less than, but those who have less than, those who don't have a lot of money, um there they'll they'll find great use of it. You could bring them back to life. It's not such a good luck if somebody who's wealthy has all the luxuries in the world, and then some, and then okay, he gives a lot of tzadaka, but really the guy, the poor person is still suffering, he still doesn't have a job, he's still if you're able to help, then then help for real. Mammish help, give give as much as you can. Now, a person who might think that, hey, you know, I have this leftover, this extra cash, and I want to help, but like it just I don't know, uh look bad, it meaning I don't want to make the guy feel bad, etc. Don't worry about that. What you think is is is extra and unnecessary, he's gonna love it. Okay? And there's this famous line, to uh rich or to a rich person where it might be trash, it's on you reasonabishon to a poor person, it might be it's treasure. So a rich person's trash is a poor man's treasure. And that's the idea. You never know. Just give it away. Give it like you it's more helpful when you give it to him. Don't feel bad. Oh, he's gonna make I'm gonna make him feel give it no proper way, but but realize that your trash can be his treasure. But somebody who has a brain in his head, he's gonna contemplate, figure out a way to make it happen in a proper way. Who is he gonna give it to, how he's gonna do it, how much, etc. He's gonna go in a proper way, la feat mashu adam according to the person, but she had tefares in a way that's going to earn him honor, and he's gonna get honor from other human beings as well. It's gonna be honorable for him, it's gonna be honorable for them, and Bar Hashem, hopefully it'll be tefaris, um, honorable for everybody. We should all be Zeicha to be on the giving side and to be able to be um careful with the money that we are that's in our possession and be able to give it out when it's supposed to hold it when we're supposed to, and Rita Shem, we should um all be Zeika to tremendous shuffle from Garishbar wishing you uh a good shabbat uh shabbat shalom, and we'll see you next week with a new topic on Sunday called Vido Confession. See you there, good shabbas.
