Understand the Mitzvos that You Do | Pele Yoetz | Hachzek Day 104

SPEAKER_00 0:00

How are you? Today, day 104 Paleoid special, special day it's our Rosh Hashanah, new topic, new idea, the topic of Tom, the reasoning for the Mitsuh. And we're gonna begin with the words tuv tam das, which if I'm not mistaken is actually words that we say in the Davening on the Yam Naram Tuv Tam Vadas, right? You know what I'm talking about? So just very interesting. I'd like to thank uh once again Joel Gedalias for sponsoring today's shear. Uh, as for myself, thank you, and the members of the shear and all participants in the Haxeg program, may they be gebenged for a year of Brach and all in Yonim Allah through Tuf Raboisai. Let's jump right in. Two of Tam V Das, it's good to have understanding of what? Ma'am mitzvah Uma Tam Yeshba. It's good to understand the reasoning for the mitzvah that we do. And we shouldn't just serve Hashem by rote, it was through this by just serving Hashem nonchalantly, haphazard. Hashem got very upset at us, Yama Ali Dei Yeshay and Avi, Yanki Niga Shamaza, Vahulu, and wasn't good news for the Jews, but the mistake was that we were serving Hashem just out of habit. Um amazement, it sounds like in a negative way to happen. He makes the connection that somebody who performs a mitzah without understanding the reasoning behind it, it's like a body without a soul, it's a lacking true substance. Um, the gila tamu vamar. For example, when it comes to the mitzvah, we actually know what the reasoning is. We know what it's meant to do. You're supposed to look at it. Uzkhardem is called mitzvah shem. The mitzvah tits is supposed to remind you of all the mitzvahs, the imlotin lezkar, but if you don't pay attention to this, nimtzhalo kiyam, coming as you train, umabeta, it's gonna come out that you're not gonna um fulfill that which Hem had in mind. And therefore, what value is there by Nakhas Titis Shala? What value is there by donning it? Vichen Alzehad, Benochstfilm Shah Mitzulis. This same logic would apply when it comes to donning vitfilin or other mitzvahs dokamek bzeh, we have to examine and delve into them. Somebody who doesn't understand the reasoning. It's like he's unclothed from the mitzvah. So mish ain lo leave lodas, somebody who doesn't have the heart to comprehend. He shall surely ask. And he should lower himself, he should humble himself to the dust of the feet of the wise ones so that he should learn. Okay. Umitoyeles hanimshach midias tamayamitsos. A benefit of knowing the reasonings of the mitzvous is what? Sheavul is gandish is that a person will come to sanctify himself even in matters that are actually technically permitted to him. Okay, going is ribbus asatire, for example, when it comes to the prohibition of ribbus, ulafum tama, according to its reason, the reason behind why um there's an issar of ribbus is that way people will come to be nice and kind and lend their money with tremendous grace. Right? And yes, there's a mutter way to end with ribbus to a tariff siska, but this type of person understands the reasoning behind the ribbus, so he's gonna do he's gonna avoid doing that, even though technically it's mutter inflaid. If it's possible, you could apply this in other matters as well. But it's another uh benefit of knowing the reasoning of the mitzvah. That way we can fulfill even the mitzvos that are not able to be technically physically performed. For example, the mitzah of bringing karbanos, shaitamu, lamani tene alibo. The reasoning behind the mitzvos is for us to pay attention and put our heart shaken. We should become humbled. A person technically can accomplish that level of humility without actually bringing their kabanos, we could apply this in other areas. There are some mitzvos that don't have a reasoning, at least that we can understand. Yakshu Shoa Takar Spark Luzak realized then that Hashem wants to give us merit, the ficha khibulham taira mitzvah, and therefore he increased uh for us the ability to learn tirah and to perform mitzvos, even if we don't understand them. How pleasant, how sweet. Shekaidima so is so ha mitzah yotzimi before a person does any mitzvah. He should say, What is this that I'm about to do? What's the depth? What's the reasoning behind it? This is the proper way to go. If you want to do uh and tap into the level of being in a true Evan Hashem, then this is what a person should do. He should think before he does things, and he should have this understanding. Okay, what am I about to do? It actually understanding what you're doing helps with memory. Aval. And this is true in any type of memory. When you when something is more ingrained and you you understand the topic at hand, you're more likely to remember it rather than just like getting a whole bunch of information and trying to. That's not gonna really help. Aval. Sometimes it's not um the right thing to actually reveal the reasonings uh behind why we do things to those who are ignorant, to the Amiaratin. Why? Shema Yigrim L him Lufrook Old or Aniar Bevlaosar, because maybe they're gonna take it the wrong way. They'll increase or decrease, and they're shalli can slamakham, at the end of the day, Ghazal knew what they were talking about. Maybe a person who tried to explain to he's not gonna, he's either not gonna understand, he's not gonna want to understand, he's gonna turn back. And it no no no. People end up being misled because of their understanding, which is really a lack of understanding. Um, and they don't realize that the words of the Tyra and the words of our sages are actually alive and established forever. Alright, that concludes today's topic. Tom Mirthashem next year, we could say that, Mirzhem, next year on Monday, we'll continue with the Paleoids, a new topic. Tirdah, wishing you a Ksiva, the Hassimatoba to you and your family, a good Gaben Shayar. Should be written and sealed in the Book of Life and have a tremendous year of Bracha and Yeshua and Parnassa, and we should be good to learn together for a long time. All the best, and uh see you next year.
