Emor - Taking Responsibility For Every Jew

2:09 If the Torah is eternal That means it's eternal not only for back then but also for us. So there's a halacha. Lo yitama ba'amav. You should say it's a practical halacha today. If a kohen was there and no one's around to bury, the kohen should bury the person. But what does that have to do with us? What does that have to do with us tonight in Ber Meiriam? What does it have to do with us? So that's our question for tonight. The shiur tonight is based on a shiur. It's a beautiful shear that I saw from Rav Moshe Weinberger. I don't want to take any credit for myself. The shiur comes from Rav Weinberger, but it's a stunning, beautiful shear, and I think it's an important lesson for all of us. And maybe a lesson that I think, if I'm being honest, now that we just learned about. Again, we don't know what happens. We just know that the initial reports that came in are not good. Soldiers were injured or killed fighting. So maybe this she'er resonates deeply.

3:07 And in a different way than it would have an hour ago. Sometimes Hakol Shemaruchu sends a piece of Torah into the world in a particular place in a particular time. And it means one thing at seven o'clock in the evening, and maybe it means something else at eight forty-five. If we had given the shiur two hours ago, maybe it would have meant something different. I hope that tonight's shear will mean something for us in this moment. The Zohar Hakadosh. If you look on your sheet over here You don't have to see it inside; it's not so important. But the Zohar Hakadosh, if you look on the second page, it says Moshe Shushbina demal kahava v'dot teferes mitamis anhedrei v'chulu v'chulu. And it says, "aaron shushbina dematronisa v'dam malchus." The Zohar Hakadosh says that Moshe Rabbeinu is called the Shushbina Demalka, and Aaron Akhen is called the Shushbina Dematronisa. What do those words mean?

4:08 The minig is in Kallah Yisrael that when a chassan and kallah go to the chuppah Somebody escorts them. You know that? You've been to a wedding In a Jewish wedding, the chassan walks down with his parents or with his father and his father-in-law. The kallah walks down with her parents or with her mother and her mother-in-law. Depending on your minhag, they walk down the aisle. We don't go down the aisle alone. We have a relationship with Hashem, and our relationship with Hashem Hashem is called the chassan, the husband. And kallah Yisrael is called the kallah. We are the wives. It's a marriage that takes place between kallah Yisrael and Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Who walks Hashem down the aisle And who walks us down the aisle? If we're getting married, Matan Torah is coming up soon. Soon we have Shavuos. Girls, when do we leave, Beri Meriam? After Shavuos. Right after Shavuos. Good.

5:08 So not every seminary stays till that long. Baruch Hashem, you girls are in a seminary that's giving you that opportunity. So we have Shavuos is a wedding. Who's gonna walk Hashem down the aisle? Who's going to walk us down the aisle? So Moshe Rabbeinu is called Shushbina Demalca. Know Shushbina Demalca means? It means he is the best man for Hashem. He escorts Hashem to Har Sinai. And who walks Klal Yisrael to Har Sinai? Aaron and Cohen. So Moshe Rabbeinu brings Hashem to the chuppah And Aaron and Cohen brings us to the chuppah. This is what the Zohar Hakadosh says. The question is, what does this mean? What is this telling us about the role of Moshe Rabbeinu? What is it telling us about the role of Aaron a Cohen? Because that's what this week's parasha is about. That's what we just learned. A Cohen is not allowed to be tamei meis. So the Zohar Kodesh is giving us an insight into what's the nature of a Cohen. What's a Cohen? A Cohen is someone who walks Klal Yisrael down the aisle. What does that mean? What is that? What's the depth of that? It sounds very poetic.

6:16 But what does it actually mean? I want to share with you a Gemara. You hear? You hear the? Again, we have to have a kar satov. We hear the F-16s flying overhead, and what are they flying overhead for? They're flying overhead so that we could learn Torah in Yerushalayim Erakodesh. We have to have a kar satov to every single soldier that's fighting for us. And what's our responsibility? To learn Torah on their behalf in the sh'chus of their success in the sh'chus of their ru'ushalayim. Amen. What? Question on what we just said? Moshe Rabbeinu is called Shushbina Demalke. He escorts Hashem to the Chuppah. And Aaron HaKohen is called Shushbina Dematronisa. He escorts us to the Chuppah. What does that mean? It sounds poetic. What does it mean that Hashem is escorted by Moshe Rabbeinu? More importantly for us tonight, what does it mean that Aaron HaKohen escorts Klali Yisrael to the Chuppah? What do those words mean?

7:12 So there's a Gemara. We're not going to get into the details of the Gemara, but I want you to see one word of the Gemara here. The Ema Geula Tilo Kihechi Deloli Tama Bein Hanachrim. The Tosher Rebbe says, look at this Gemara. The Gemara is talking again. We're not going to get into the details of the Gemara. You just need to know the word. What does Yitama mean? We translated. If you go back to the first page, what does the word 'itama' mean? To become impure, to become tameh, to become defiled. But look at how the Gemara uses it: "Hechi de lo li tama ben hanachrim" So that you shall not become assimilated amongst the gentile nations of the world. Look what the Tosher Rebbe says. The Tosher Rebbe says, 'When, when the, and this is for us.' The job of the Cohen we just got done saying is to escort Klal Yisrael to the Chuppah. What does that mean?

8:11 The job of the Cohen is to make sure, like the pasuk says Lo Yitama BeAmav. The Chassid Rebbe says they shall not become what? What does Yitama mean? Assimilated. They shall not become assimilated. What's the job of the Cohen? The job of the Cohen is to make sure. That we don't become assimilated, and that those who do become assimilated, what's the job of the Cohen? To return us. You know what it means to be a parent who walks a child down the aisle. I Baruch Hashem have one married daughter. I've done it once. I walked my daughter down the aisle. What does that mean? It means that I'm in a certain way giving her over to her husband. But it also means I brought her to that moment. Meaning. I'm responsible. That's what it means to be a father of the Kallah. I take responsibility for this girl to make sure that she could arrive at this moment of the Chuppah, and then I give her to her Chasam.

9:16 And then her Chasam takes it from there. This is a big thing. This is a big Yisod in parenting. The job of a parent is to make sure that the child is pure, obviously, but even more important. They do not become assimilated. They do not lose their identity. That's not such an easy thing to do. How many of us? You have to raise your hand. The answer is everybody. How many of us on some level I shouldn't say it like this, but it's a little too extreme. I mean it in a certain way. How many of us lost our identity in high school? How many of us in ninth grade? Remember the trauma of ninth grade? In eighth grade, I had all these friends. And then I came into ninth grade, and I see, baruch Hashem, I have five daughters. Four of them have already been ninth graders. I have a nine-year-old; she not yet.

10:07 She has not yet suffered the trauma of ninth grade. Bez Hashem, she will. But four for four That's what I see. In ninth grade, they spend the entire year asking themselves the following question: Who are my friends? What crowd am I a part of? I personally don't understand this. What do you mean? What crowd are you a part of? You were friends with all these girls for the first eight years. You went to the same high school. What happened? Abba, it's different than ninth grade. You have to know which group you're a part of, and you see they start to separate. Girls that were friends there entirely. Abba, I'll say to my daughter, I notice that Sarah doesn't come over anymore. She's part of a different chavurah now. It's trauma. And then the girls, by the way, that have no chavurah, it's like what's that game?

10:53 Musical chairs. And then there's that one girl left standing, going, I think I have no friends, and so she tries to attach herself to a group, and then that group says they're discussing whether they should allow her into the group. I'm like, Rachmano, it's a person. It's a person. So what do we do in ninth grade? In ninth grade, I've seen this four for four. In ninth grade, girls try to assimilate their identity to be liked by others. You, I'm part of your chaver, right? We're part of the same group. We have the same interests. I'm like you, right? And all of a sudden, I'm not saying they become different people, but it's like they're trying on a mask. They're trying on. You ever see that? You're like, I want to try on how it feels to say these words. You ever do that? You ever say something that you don't really believe. Just to see what it's like to say it?

11:41 And then you're like I didn't like the way that came out. It just didn't feel like me. You ever have that? That's because what you're doing is, in a certain sense, you've lost your identity, and you're trying to find your identity. What's the job of the father who brings his daughter to the chuppah? He's saying, 'I brought her to you, all of her. Meaning, she's her. She hasn't lost her identity. She's her. That's what allows her to participate in the relationship. Girls, can you get married if you're pretending to be somebody that you're not?' People do this all the time. They date. You know how? I'm sure you don't know, but I'm sure you've never dated before in your life. Let's say you show up on a first date. You know what you do on a first date? You pretend to be somebody that you're not.

12:27 Just to make sure that you're well liked. You never do that. You show up and you're like, "Oh yeah, you like that. I like that too, right?" No, you don't. You've never done that in your life. It's like, no, you have to feel it out. You're like, "Is it safe to be myself yet?" You let your crazy out a little bit at a time. But what happens if a girl dates a guy like that for months? And then they get engaged. And the guy has never met her before, even though they spent all this time before, the entire time that she was dating. Who was she? Somebody else, and now they got engaged. Who's he married to? He's married to a version of herself. Girls, what's the goal of marriage? The goal of marriage is to become one with your husband. How could you become one with somebody if you are not even present in the relationship?

13:15 Does that make sense? You know how many times a guy will come to me and say, "How much do I have to tell this girl before I get engaged?" Or can I just tell her after we're engaged? I'm like, what's your best case scenario here? She's trapped. That's what you want, or do you want to get engaged to somebody that you can't be honest with? Does that make sense? I'm not saying whether you should or shouldn't say it, but it's like a big secret. You're holding it in your pocket. If you're holding yourself back Who's participating in the relationship? The job of the shushbina, the job of the one that escorts you to the chuppah, the parent, the kohen Is to be able to say, "I've brought her." She's present. She's not assimilated. Her identity is her own, and therefore she's capable of participating in a relationship.

14:14 This is a big job. This is the job of the kohen. Lo itama says the Tashereba. The job of Aryana Cohen is to make sure that every single Jew is Jewish. To make sure that every single Jew retains their Jewish identity and has a strong connection with who they are. Because if you don't, how could you be in a relationship with Hashem? And I have a question. It's an uncomfortable question to ask. And again, I'm saying it in an extreme way. Take it with a grain of salt. Take it down a peg. But I'm saying it in an extreme way. Sometimes, sometimes I feel. Maybe I shouldn't say this. It's not so nice. But sometimes I feel like we became a little daish. Like, like I'm not saying anything bad about Klal Yisrael, but it's like Who are our heroes? Who's on our walls? When I was growing up, I'll admit it.

15:08 When I was growing up I had a picture of Michael Jordan on my wall. I had a picture of Muhammad Ali on my wall. I had a picture of a certain television show. My father was in advertising, so he brought home a very well known television show poster. I don't know what you call it. I had a picture of Patrick Ewing on my wall. Who are the people on our walls? What are the books on our shelves? What are the influences in our home? It's hard to connect to Hashem when we've become assimilated. What's the job of the Cohen? The job of the Cohen is to make sure that we show up. Now in my home. And I hope I give you a bracha. You were able to do the same. My wife was machbad when we built our home. Who's going to be on the walls?

15:55 Pictures of our gedolim, pictures of our leaders. Who are the people that we aspire to be like? These things matter. They matter tremendously. The job of the kohen is to ensure the job of the rebbe, the teacher, the kohen, as we're going to see in a minute. It's all the same person. It's to make sure lo yitamav ba'amav that you don't become assimilated. Take a look at the Gemara and Megillah over here. Unbelievable Gemara and Megillah. The Gemara is talking about again. Who gets Kohen? We have three. You have Mondays and Thursdays. You have laning. Who gets Kohen? So what's the answer? Who gets Kohen? Who gets the first Aliyah? A Kohen. But the Gemara says an unbelievable thing. The Gemara tells a story. Rav Rav, the great sage, Rav. He was given the first bracha. That's what the Gemara in Megillah says, and not the Cohen.

16:48 And the Gemara explains why he got it if he wasn't a Cohen. Normally we give Cohen to a Cohen. The Gemara says. If you're the leading authority, if you're the leading Torah authority of your generation You're a Cohen. You know what that means? It means that a Jewish leader And I'm going to say again, I'm going to say this in a sharp way The job of a Jewish leader is to be a Cohen. What's the job of the Cohen? What did we just say? To bring every single Jew to Hashem, to escort us down the aisle, to make sure that we're not assimilated, to make sure that we are ourselves, to make sure that we are Jews, so that we can be in a relationship with Hashem. Who's the Cohen of today? It's not just the Kohanim, the guys with the name Cohen or Rappaport; those are famous Cohen names. It's not just those guys. It's every single Rebbe.

17:36 Every single teacher, every single Mechanechet. Every single ra'kezah. And God willing, every single one of you Because every one of us will be in a position of influence in our lives. We will be mothers, perhaps. We will be teachers, perhaps. We will be people in our community that could lead. Are you a leader? Just by taking those that are unassimilated to Hashem? The job of the Cohen is to bring every single Jew to make sure every single Jew shows up. So why couldn't it just say every Jew that. That is high up. Is responsible for. Every Jew is responsible for every other Jew. Why doesn't it just say that? Why does it have to say Kohanim and then we figure out? Because it's saying more than that. It's not just every Jew is responsible for every Jew. That's one level. This is saying on some level, when we look at the leaders of our generation, the Gedolim, the Tzaddikim, the Rebbis, the teachers, They have to be the Cohen. It's more than just I'm responsible for you. Of course I'm responsible for you. But what specifically is the kohen responsible for?

18:42 To make sure you don't assimilate, to make sure you don't lose your identity, and this is not a small thing. Sometimes this might not be so nice. Sometimes a rebbe, in their attempt to help a girl become frum If they're not paying attention, what might they do? They might lead a girl to give up her identity in order to become frum. And that's the opposite of what we want. Each one of you has an amazing personality. You have an amazing gift that Hashem gave you. Every one in this room has something that Hashem gave them. Do you have to kill that gift in order to become from? Do you kill your own identity? If you kill your own identity in order to become from, that's the opposite of fromkait. There was a woman who used to live on my block. She was married. Exceptionally talented person.

19:31 She was going to Broadway. Like all these stories, she was going to Broadway. Her parents were both actors. She went to a top acting school in high school, and she was in a school called NYU Tisch. NYU Tisch. This is the school. So it's true. She couldn't be frum and work on Broadway. That she couldn't. She couldn't be on stage. But she found a way to harness her talent. She found a way to harness her identity. You cannot. She herself happened. She took the same skill set. It's a little bit too complicated to explain right now. But basically, she became like a marriage therapist. She explained to us how it was really the same skill set. It was an amazing thing how she explained how it was really the same thing. I never thought acting had anything to do with relationships. But Emma says she explained to me that acting is really all about relationships. That the actor on stage somehow comes across to the audience and creates a relationship with the audience. I never thought about that way, but she says it's exactly the same skill set. Interesting. My point is this: If you have to amputate a part of yourself in order to be in a relationship with Hashem.

20:36 It means you don't understand what it means to be in a relationship with Hashem. You can't amputate a part of yourself and be in a relationship if being in a relationship means being in a relationship with all of you. Lo yitama ba'amav. You can't assimilate. You can't lose a part of you because then who is Hashem in a relationship with? The job of the great Rebbe, the job of the Cohen, is to make sure all of you comes. So you'll say, Rebbe, I'm a great artist. How do I use that in service of Hashem? If the Rebbe says to you, No, you can't be an artist. That's not a good Rebbe. That's a terrible Rebbe. I'll tell you an amazing story. There's a story with the Labavitcher Rebbe that there was a person who became frum and they were a great artist. And they wrote to the Rebbe. Am I allowed to be an artist and be frum?

21:25 So you know what the Rebbe responded? He said, Are you an artist? So the person said, He goes, "Then how could you not be?" If you're really an artist, can you stop being an artist? No. An artist cannot stop being an artist any more than I can choose to stop breathing right now. If you're an artist, you're an artist. If you're a dancer, you're a dancer. If you're a musician, you're a musician. You can't stop being these things. It's part of your soul. The only question is, how do you use that in the service of Hashem? How do you make sure that it's not assimilated amongst the goyim? If you have a talent for music, figure out how to use your music to serve Hashem Kadosh Baruch Hu. Don't listen to or play or engage in music that is destructive. The music of today's generation—look, it's very destructive. These are destructive things that are happening.

22:11 There's such a thing today called—I'm sure you girls never heard of this, but I'm—I'm very relevant, Rebbe, so I know these things. There's such a thing called a diss track. We've all heard. It's a whole Drake and Kendrick. I told you guys I'm holding. I'm holding. Even I don't know about that. He's holding. I'm holding. I'm holding. The boys explained to me everything. A dish track. It's the most. It's the craziest thing in the world. A dish track is where they use music to roast each other and go after each other. First of all, aside from the midos shabu, that's terrible midos to rip somebody berabim. To have public beef with each other. Terrible. But to use music. The nature of music is that it's supposed to harmonize the whole world. It's supposed to bring the whole world together. Today we use music in the most destructive way possible because it's become. Unfortunately, that's the way of the world today. And Jews are listening to this music.

23:09 They're walking around. You see these guys with these giant ear muffs on. Larger than their face. It's like the bigger the headphone. It's interesting with headphones. They're either tiny or enormous. It's either AirPods or this. Like they're walking around in Antarctica. You see these guys, and they're like locked in. And they're like, Reb, I don't even listen to the words. You do. The words are going into your soul, man. They're going into your ears. You want to hear that stuff? You don't want to hear that stuff? That's part of our assimilation into the Goyim. What's our art? What's our music? What's our drama? We have to figure out how to elevate these things. That's the job of a Jew. Unfortunately, we've become assimilated. Whose responsibility is it to bring us back? It's the job of the Cohen, the Tzaddikim of our generation to bring us back. But there's such a thing as a bad tzaddik.

23:59 Such a thing as a bad tzaddik. It's okay. It happens. Such a thing as a bad tzaddik. Look at Gemara in Kedushin. The Gemara in Kedushin, the bottom of this page. The Gemara in Kedushin says as follows. I'm Rava. Ravidi Asburyly. Ravidi explained to me. Rava said. Ravidi explained to me. Imrut tzaddik itov. Say about the tzaddik who's tov. V'chiyesh tzaddik tov v'chiyesh tzaddik sheino tov. Is it possible if a tzaddik is good? Is there such a thing as a bad tzaddik? How could there be a bad tzaddik? So the Gemara says, 'Elo, what does it mean? Tov l'shamayim v'la'brios zeu tzaddik tov.' There's such a thing as a good tzaddik. He's good for Hashem and he's also good with the creation. Meaning, he speaks to people. He knows how to speak to people. But then the Gemara says, 'There's also somebody who's a tzaddik who's not good.'

24:47 Not a tzaddik. He's not good. "Tov l'shamayim v'ra'la'brios zeu tzaddik sheino tov." If you're godly but you don't do well with people That's a bad tzaddik. But there's an obvious question: What does it mean a bad tzaddik? How can there be a bad tzaddik? If he's bad with people, is he a tzaddik? No. It's not. You could be the frumest guy in the world. You could be learning Gemara all day. You could be learning Tanakh all day. You could daven three times a day. You could shuckle like you're having a seizure. You ever see those guys? You ever see like the. I'm not like an exercise person, but I see some of these guys. They're like come out of davening shvitzi. You see them like you know what I'm talking about? It's like a full motion. You know what I'm saying? Like at the end of it, they've probably lost ten pounds. It's like calisthenics. I make don't worry. Girls aren't much better, by the way. I don't understand for the life of me this move. Forgive me, brother.

25:43 I don't I don't understand. I understand this move. This my favorite move. This the. I love it. I don't understand. I love it. It's like, no, but I don't want to see guys diving like they're on the treadmill. Just talk to us. Guys diving like they're on the treadmill. Girls diving like it's yoga. It's like Pilates. I once dated a girl. I knew she was very frum because her makeup was all over the sitter. So she must have cried all of her makeup onto the sitter. Her sitter looked like a rainbow. I could tell which part she said and which part she didn't say. Those are the parts I won't call. It's Mexican in the sitter. I didn't buy one for her. Didn't work out between us. What does it mean? A tzaddik who's not good with people? If you're not good with people, you're not a tzaddik. I want you to know I had the opportunity in my life to meet Rav Chaim Kaniewski, Ze Chesaddik of Racha.

26:45 He was so great with people. He was so funny. He had such a smile on his face, and everybody who came into contact with him really liked him. I brought the Vassar boys there one year. And this boy came and he had long hair. And Ruv Chaim used to be a big joker. He used to make a lot of great jokes. And he looked up at the boy and saw that the boy had long hair. And he looked at his gabbai and he goes, 'Ze ish or isha?' It's a boy or a girl. He had a big smile on his face, and the boy started laughing. He was very known. If you came to him with short sleeves, he didn't like short sleeves. He felt it wasn't sneis, even for boys. He felt it wasn't sneis. So my nephew went to him, and he was wearing short sleeves. And Rav Chaim pulled him in close with a big smile, and he goes "Are you? You're very poor." So the boy goes, "No." He goes, "Tell your father to buy the rest of the shirt." A big smile on his face, and he knew he had a light in the room. He was so sweet. He was being with Rav Chaim was like candy.

27:37 And of course, you were with the God of the Door. Nobody knew more Torah than Ruchayim. Nobody learned more Torah than Ruchayim. But that's what it should be. The more Torah you know, the sweeter you are. The more pleasant it is to be in their presence. They're Achad Archeinu. The ways of the Torah are pleasant. So here we have a tzaddik who's good with Shamayim. He's good with Hashem, but he's not good with people. So says the Adamsker, the Hillel Adamsker, the Tiferes Shlomo, the Hasidic master, the Tiferes Shlomo. He says as follows: Unbelievable answer. Avada! He's good with people. It can't be. That's what it means. Of course, he's good with people. You know what we're talking about? A bad tzaddik. A bad tzaddik is somebody who works on himself. But he doesn't work to help others achieve their own greatness. That's a bad tzaddik. You come to him and he'll have a nice word. But the real tzaddik is the one that he sends Jews out and he goes, 'Go bring that Jew back. Go bring that Jew back.' He takes responsibility for every single Jew.

28:32 That's what it means to be a Cohen. I want to make sure not just my Jews, every Jew is responsible to bring every other Jew back. That was the greatness of the Labavitcher Rebbe. The greatness of the Labavitcher Rebbe is he didn't only care about his community. He cared about every single Jew. Not only did he care about every single Jew, he even cared about goyim. Do you know that the Lubavitcher Rebbe had a big movement that he said we should have? In all the public schools, he said, even though there's no prayer in the public schools, there should be a moment of silence every single day, a moment of meditation for people to connect to their Creator. He lobbied for that, because he said, "What will be with this world if kids today grow up without a connection to the Divine, without a connection to Hashem?" And do you know that National Education Day in America is on the Lubavitcher Rebbe's birthday, because they specifically wanted to recognize the work that he did.

29:25 Not just for Jews, but for everybody. To be a real tzaddik means to take care of every single Jew. So I just want to finish the shir with this. If you have questions, ask me privately afterwards. Which one do you want me to repeat? Somebody who works on himself. Somebody who works on himself. That's good for Shamayim. But to be a true tzaddik, he's not a bad guy. In other words, he's good with people. But he doesn't see it as his mission to help others. He's in a certain way. He's like a selfish tzaddik. They call it in Chasidus. They call it a tzaddik in pelts. If you want, if you're cold, there's two things you could do. The first thing you could do is you could put on a warm jacket, put on a fur coat, and then you'll be warm. What's the other thing you could do? Light a fire. If you light a fire, then everybody could be warm. So let's finish. Let's go back to our original question.

30:12 What does it mean that a kohen? Rashi says for us, a kohen cannot become tamei if there's other people to bury him But if there's nobody else to bury him. Then the Cohen has to become tamei, says Rvainberger. Excuse me, unbelievable shot, says Rvainberger. If other people can take care of him That's not the job of the Cohen. You know who the Cohen has to take care of? Those Jews who have nobody to take care of them. Those Jews who have nobody to make sure that their needs are met. That when they can't take care of themselves because they're dead, who's going to ensure that they're buried? You know who takes care of that? The Cohen. That's our responsibility to look around for the Jews that have nobody taking care of them and to say they're my responsibility. In the beginning of this year, we said to him And I said to you two hours ago, this year would have been different.

31:06 But today, in this moment, at 9:15 at night, on a Wednesday night in Eshelayim, when we hear the F-16s going overhead We have to know that those yidden, those precious soldiers. That are out in Gaza right now, that are fighting, They're fighting for us. Girls, you know what they did? They're our Kohanim. They're taking care of us. They're saying these girls in Bar and Miriam can't take care of themselves. Who's going to protect them? So they went ahead and took care of us. We have a responsibility to them to take care of them. We have a responsibility though. They can't do anything for themselves right now. There may be Chassidim injured. Who's going to take care of them? Who's going to daven for them? They can't necessarily daven for themselves right now. So who's going to daven for them? We are. We're going to take responsibility. We're going to make sure that those Jews are able to show up to Har Sinai. We're the Kohanim.

32:04 That's literally what we're called. Mamleches Kohanim. We're a nation of Kohanim. It's more than just taking responsibility for each other. It's making sure that all of them are brought to their Benis Ham. Shvuas is not that far. The wedding is approaching. We're mamish already in the last minutes before the wedding of Har Sinai. Every one of us has to kabbl on ourselves right now that our lives are going to be dedicated not only to ourselves, not only to our families, but to those Jews who can't necessarily help themselves. Just like other Jews don't take care, just like other Jews take care of us, we're going to take care of them as well.
