The More People the Better | Pele Yoetz | Hachzek Day 53
Chevra, we are back. Day 53, Peleoites. I hope you're doing amazing. Once again, today's sheer is sponsored by Joel Gedalius and family in honor of the birth of their daughter, Miriam Shoshana Mazal Tov. And let's jump right in. New topic today, the topic of Chevra. You know, chevra is one of those words I like to say a la chavra. You know, yiddinarchra, friends. And we're gonna learn that it's important to do things in a group of people, not just isolated by yourself, but with other people as it relates to Torah, as it relates to Tfila. And let's see what the Palayotz has to say. It's known, okay, it's known Chazal who teaches the following. It's incomparable when you have a few people doing a mitzvah versus many doing a mitzvah. The more, the merrier. The more people who are doing the mitzvah, the greater it is. For the reason of what? Like it says in Mishlay Uvarov Am Hadras Melech, the multitude of people, that is the splendor of the king. Vihnei, says the Palayoites using this idea of Khevra to teach us the importance of davening as best as we can with a tzibor with a minion. Kitafila sayakir by prabidar yasun gazet. Because the tfila of an individual, especially in our generation, doho karula, it can easily be pushed away. It requires many conditions. You need intense kavana. Kitafila Bullay Kavana Kugufla Nishama, right? Tfila without intention is like a body without a soul. A person has to be completely free of sin, so that way the tefila will go to the right places in the lofty heavens. Kulehai vulai, then maybe perhaps his tefila will achieve what he's set out to do. Who can be so sure? You know what? I got this. I'm completely free of sin. I'm fulfilling all the requirements. I'm having the utmost intention. So yeah, I'm good. And my tef is just going to go exactly where it's supposed to go. This should be our consolation. The mighty God will not disdain Vyav Shefa tube shonamulo, vlibam lonochun emovura mi chaper. Even if we deceive Hashem with our tongue, etc., then he will still forgive us. Still, person who desires life. It's true, Hashem is forgiven, but a person should try as best as he can not to dive in alone. Unless it is an onus, an extenuating circumstance, circumstance. There's a tremendous opportunity that a person has by being in a shoal. The answering of omen, the answering of Yahishme Rabbah, Ubarhu, Ukedusha, Utfiloso, Akurava Akarishin, Osa Peros. But if not, his prayer can be dirtied and it may not produce fruit. And this goes without saying, you know, especially um in Brasilftar and Hasidos. Of course we need to talk to Hashem as individuals. His potus is of course. But it doesn't go without it goes without saying, though, that the Tefilabit Sibor is a it's something it's something else. It's not something that we should take lightly. We want to be part of this am and Barov Am Hadras Melech. It's part. Um bic uh big uh when it comes to the the the tsibor, we don't have to be as perfect um as the individual. So you know that that's a my love davening, the davening but cibor, you get there's a chosma the tsibor, etc. Okay. Omnum Gamlini and Tamuturah. So now the Rebbe, the Rebba, now the Rabba, yeah, the Rebba, the Belioids is digressing from Tfila, and now he's going to talk about Talmudurah, study of Torah. Torah de Rabim, oh the communal Torah study is greater. Ulufi Daiti Yositov Lilmodim Harabim te hilos milmod Yachidi Negaim the Olos. Better to learn uh tehilim with the many than to learn negaim and olos alone. Vinay Davada Melakalvashom omar David Tes, Khaverani. I am a friend, the cholashiriucha to all those who fear you. The umrahusyn was out the chest and lo yukal lehimanos, right? It's a deficiency that cannot be counted. Zesh Nimnu Khaverv Litvar mitzu l'imna imam is talking about a situation where a person's friends are counted for the participation of a mitzvah, but he was not counted with them. If there is a khevra, if there's a chabura, there's a group of people doing the right thing, they're doing mitzvahs in your community, join them. Because we don't understand the reward for mitzvahs. When we look at the great reward for the righteous in the next world, hullo and you realize that oh, it's too late. Shinivyak binamas valu yukalasakin, your teeth are gonna like shatter, you'd be so distraught. How come I didn't chap around when I was down here on this world? How come I didn't take advantage of when a person is still alive? Person should do as much as he can. Be with the right people, do the right thing, uh uh channel the best of your abilities. Not going to translate that exactly, but he's saying when a person involves himself with chabur, sometimes the group of people they they have certain agreements that need to be kept and met, etc. So just that person has to be aware and be careful when it comes to making these oaths and and shwas, etc. I just read that. A person should be careful that he's only he's fulfilling that which he agreed to do, not to be taken advantage, etc. Shimla Yikami Avery Kaim averbiyado. Because if he doesn't fulfill it, and it was something that he swear made an oath to do, then it's an avera, because you're not keeping your word. And it comes out you're actually losing more than you're getting. This is a stumbling block that besets many people in these holy groups, right? It's befitting that what? Umroil, a person should be aware that transgressing and not fulfilling oaths uh that a person made is a terrible thing. Person should only agree upon and sign and make an oath, etc., on something that he's able to uh fulfill and keep. In these agreements that you're having with the groups of people, there should be an exception clause that it's depending on the people, it's depending on the time and the people and the circumstances, etc. That way, if you need, you'll be able to uh back out. Um, all of this should be done in a matter where uh destruction will not come, calamity will not be come, um will not will not result from this, but rather we should come together as a khabura and it'll be something that's desirable, and it will be La Rotzun, it will be a great source of salvation for all of us. Bottom line is um we have to find the right khevra, uh a good group of people when it comes to tefilah to try as best as we can to draw tavern with a minion and learning Torah should be done um with a chavra as well. Um and Mr. Shem, we shall be Zeka to connect to the Khevra. Wishing you all the best and have an amazing rest of your day. Mr. Shem, we look forward to learning with you tomorrow.
