Shabbos HaGadol / Pesach - The World Is Waiting For Us To Declare Ourselves Hashem's Firstborn

2:33 We're living in a time. I don't have to tell you. You're the girls that stayed, not stuck. You're the girls that stayed. I didn't get to read it yet. I saw it on Rabbi Katz's status. I'm not. One second. I don't often follow the status. I know he's got quite a status. But I did see that there was an article that he wrote, an opinion article. I didn't click on it. I will. But I knew it was Rabbi Katz's article because even in the little bio, it gives you a link with a little bio. It already said the word nuance. So I know that this is the world of complexity and subtlety and nuance, and everything is gray, and that's a beautiful thing. I'm not making fun of it. Chas v'shem, it's a very beautiful thing. We're living in amazing times where you girls decided to be here when Mashiach comes, Beis Hashem.

3:38 Everybody is running to get a flight out. They're heading in the wrong direction. I'm convinced of that. It's not. I'm not chassid. I'm saying that anybody who left did the wrong thing, but those who stayed definitely did something very precious and very beautiful. It's a time. It's a time in history where you didn't have to come home. Today, Baruch Hashem More and more Jews are coming back. I understand that in MMY today, when a girl signs up for MMY, she signs up for Shana Aleph, Shana Bet, and she signs up to make Aliyah. That's part of what's happening here, and it's very beautiful. Baruch Hashem. We're living in we're living in unbelievable times. Unbelievable times. Now more than ever, we need to look into Shabbos to understand what's going on. Because these times. Are very confusing. What is our avodah in this time? How are we meant to show up in these moments in history?

4:44 It's not so obvious as a lot of conversation happening in the world today exactly what's happening to try to understand how we're meant to engage with these moments. In the Hagada, it says that Rav Lazar ben Azariah was not zayicha to say Kriyashma at night until Joshua. But if you look over there in the Hagada, it brings Kol Aleilos LaHavi Yamosa Mashiach. That it doesn't just mean to say Yitzias Mitzrayim at night But that it's meant to even include in the times of Mashiach. The Bavitsher Rebbe points out, 'La haviyamaisa Mashiach.' It could have said it in a different way. 'La haviyamaisa Mashiach' means that a yid is meant to remember Yisias Mitzrayim in order to bring Mashiach. Not just that we will say the story of Yisias Mitzrayim in the times of Mashiach, but that telling over the story of Yisias Mitzrayim is part of the process of bringing Mashiach.

5:54 We need now more than ever in this moment in history to be very intentional about the way that we show up to these moments, LaHavi Yemaisa Mashiach, because we're not We're not just like people say, we're moments away from Mashiach. We're not moments. We're not even seconds. We're not even milliseconds. We're like the closest that a person could possibly be to Yemaisa Mashiach than ever before in the history of the world. Mashiach has been coming since the beginning of creation But the culmination of the process of Mashiach is here. So we need to pay very careful attention to whatever avodah is left for us to do. This week's parsha is Tzav. Which of course means from lashon of to connect deeply to Hashem. Tzav says from lashon of glue. But the Shabbos, the iris of the Shabbos. It's called Shabbos Hagadol. This is not a colloquialism.

6:59 It's not just the thing that we say that this is called Shabbos Hagadol. It's brought down in Shochan Aruch. In shochan aruch, it says Shabbos levnei Pesach. Keren says Shabbos Hagadol Memnei a Nei Shenasabai. It's called Shabbos Hagadol. He's really bringing from the Tur, and the Tur is really bringing from Chazal. There was a particular Nei that happened on this Shabbos thousands of years ago. There was a Nei that happened on this Shabbos. Because of that nase, it's called Shabbos Hagolah. What was the nase? So first, we'll say how the Torah describes the nase, and then we'll see Tosefos also describes the nase a little bit differently. The Torah says as follows: I'm sure you've heard this Torah before. The Torah says that what happened on this Shabbos is that Klal Yisrael came home and they brought the carbon pasach, they brought the lamb that they were going to shech for the carbon pasach, they brought it home this Shabbos And they tied it to their bedpost.

7:53 And the midrashim who were there were asking, 'What are you doing? What are you doing, bringing all these lambs into your home?' And they said, 'We're shechting the carbon Pesach like Hakadosh Baruch Hu told us to.' And the midrashim The way that the Torah describes it Their teeth were blunted, which is an interesting lashon. It sounds a little bit like what we do to the rasha. Their teeth were blunted, meaning they were left stunned and powerless. They didn't know what to say. It was such a brazen act of chutzpah. That these people who had been our masters, these people who had tortured us mercilessly—if you look in the Mamaria Chazal, if you look in the Medrash—you see the torture that the Mitzrim inflicted upon Klal Yisrael was unlike anything ever before in history or ever since. You should know—if you look at the Medrash Eichazal, the Nazis in Machshemam killed millions of Jews.

8:45 But what they did to us pales in comparison to what the Mitzrim did. The worst day of the Holocaust was still better than the best day of the times of Mitzrayim, and it wasn't for seven years; it was for 210 years. Unimaginable levels of suffering, psychologically, emotionally, spiritually. Broken people, broken beyond imagination. 49th level of tumah means there was nothing left. So it was a brazen act of chutzpa for these slaves that were tortured so mercilessly to say we're going to kill your gods. And these mitzvahs, they had nothing that they could possibly say. And listen, what is the language of the tour? The alshem also hanais karno so shabbos agadol. And because of that nais It was Shabbos Agadol. I have a basic question. I like to ask simple questions. Simple Jews ask simple questions. What nais? What nais? What nais? The tour leaves out the nais. I know what nisim looked like.

9:50 I've read the Torah, Ten Makos. That's a profound nase. Kriyas Hamsof. That's a profound nase. Klal Yisrael coming in Holding these lambs, tying them to their bedposts, saying to the Mitzrim, 'We're going to kill your gods.' What's the nase? It's courageous. What's the name? Taisus says the story, same story, but a little bit differently, with some important distinctions. What they do, they also came home with their carbon pesach. But listen to what Tossef says. Keshalachu pescheim ba'Oseh Shabbos. When they took their carbon pesach on that Shabbos Niskabsu b'chares umas ha'olam etz Yisrael. It wasn't just the Egyptians. The entire world. Again, obviously, these things are meant to be understood seriously, not always literally. But every single b'chor, every single firstborn in the entire world, they came to Mitzrayim And they saw these Jews leading their lambs, and they were coming in, and they said to them, "What are you doing?"

11:03 In the Torah, it's the Mitzrim. In Teshuvas, the way he's quoting the Medrash, it's every b'chor in the entire world is coming, and they're saying, 'What are you doing?' And what happens? Amr lehen zevach pesach la Hashem. We're bringing a carbon Pesach. Not just because Hashem commanded us to. Listen to the words Shi'aharik becharem Mitzrayim. Because Hakadosh Baruch Hu is about to kill the firstborn of every single Mitzri. Every single Mitzri, that firstborn is going to die. So what happened? So these becharem from Mitzrayim They were not okay with dying. So what did they do? Halchoeitz labosein vealparo. They went to their fathers. Imagine all the Mitzrim, the firstborns from every single family. They went to their dads and they went to Paro. Levakeish menushu yishlochei Yisrael. They said, "Let him go. We're all gonna die." " What's the response? What's the response of a father?

12:06 What's the response of a father? Your firstborn son comes to you and he says, 'Tati, please. I'm gonna die. Please.' Let the Jews go. They come to Paro. You come to your president. You come to your king. You come to your God. You say, please let them go. We're all going to die. The fathers they turned to their children. They said, absolutely not. We're not letting them go. What type of Achzarius? What type of cruelty that they knew our children are going to die and they said, no, we're still not letting Chal Yisrael go. They started a civil war. They started killing their fathers, and they started doing whatever they could to break Mitzrayim so that Klal Yisrael could go free because they didn't want to die. The Hargum and Harbei Teisa says, and they were actually Matsliach. Many Egyptians died on that Shabbos. That's an unbelievable story. That there was a civil war. I'm not sure it constitutes a nasiyet.

13:02 There was a war. And hadahu d'chisiv. This is what we say lemaake Mitzrayim b'chayreihem. What was the macha here that the bechayrim they raised up against their fathers and against Paro and they started a civil war? What's the significance of the fact that the medrash tells us that the firstborns of Mitzrayim killed their own fathers? Those are the two questions I'd like to deal with. I want to share with you a beautiful idea. The pasuk says that Hakadosh Baruch Hu told Moshe Rabbeinu that you should know you're going to go to Paro. Ko amar Hashem b'ni bechayir Yisrael, you're going to go to Paro and you're going to tell Paro b'ni bechayir Yisrael who's the firstborn of Hakadosh Baruch Hu. The firstborn of Hakadosh Baruch Hu is Klal Yisrael. This what Hakadosh Baruch Hu tells Moshe Rabbeinu. This what's going to happen. He's telling him in the future you should know this. This how the story ends. The story ends that Klal Yisrael is going to be called the bechare of Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Rashi says an unbelievable thing.

14:09 Rashi says Can chosum Hakadosh Baruch Hu al mechiras habachir shalakach Yaakov meesav. This moment in history This moment in history of Bnei B'chir Yisrael, which takes place in Makas B'chiras Hakadosh Baruch Hu is being Chosim. He's signing on the Star. Hakadosh Baruch Hu is signing on the Star. The Star was written hundreds of years beforehand. When was the Star written? The star was written when Yaakov and Esav made an agreement. What was the agreement that they made? The agreement that they made was that Esav, who was the firstborn, is not going to be the b'chor. Yaakov is going to be the b'chor. Hakadosh Baruch Hu never signed on that star. Rashi is telling us an unbelievable thing. Hakadosh Baruch Hu never signed on that document. Yaakov and Esav made a deal. Hakadosh Baruch Hu wasn't maskeim to that deal. It's going to take hundreds of years for that deal to unfold. Hundreds of years for Hakadosh Baruch Hu to say, "now you're my b'chur."

15:06 What happened? How come Hakadosh Baruch Hu didn't sign right away? If you're the b'chur, if you're the oldest in your family How many of you are the oldest in your family? I'm the oldest in my family. We only have a couple of people here who are the oldest in their family. So it's not easy to be a bachur. It's not easy. It's not easy to be the oldest in your family. First of all, your parents are experimenting on you. The old joke is, why does a bachur get double? Why does he get pishnayim from the inheritance? Because all the mistakes that the parents made raising that child. That's why As you get older, you'll see your younger siblings are parented very differently than the older siblings. In the end, the parents are barely parenting anymore. If anyone here has older parents, do you know what I mean? In the beginning, the parents are involved, there are rules, and there's structure.

16:09 And by the time that little princess is born She has no bedtime. She's totally chutzpahdik, and the parents don't say anything. There's no rules. You know why? Because they learned. Nothing helps. So we're the ones that they experimented on. When you get older, you're going to realize your parents were children when they were raising you. Learn by doing. Trial and error. You'll get older and realize, oh my God, my parents were 30 when I was 10. I know what that meant. It's difficult to be the oldest, but it's not only difficult to be the oldest because your parents are experimenting on you. It's difficult to be the oldest because if you're the oldest, then you'll know for sure what I'm about to say is true. You're the bridge. You set the tone for the family. That's what it means to be the oldest. All the younger children are looking to the older siblings to say what the family is supposed to look like.

17:22 I was talking to my wife today. And I said to my wife, "I have tremendous gratitude." There's a girl in the neighborhood. I don't even mind saying her name. I'm zayche to live on an amazing block. I live on a block with very big people. A lot of very big people on my block. I'm on their block. If you go from the end of the block, you have Ravelli Stefanski, who gives the largest dafyomi sheir in the world. I think 50,000 people a day. And Rav Ben Leibovich, and Rav Noam Fix, who runs Tormer Devora, Rav Ben Ezra Rebi and Rav Asari. He's a very well-known Rebbe. And then you have you heard of Rav Aram Pesin? Rav Pesin was one of the big talmidim of Rav Chaim Kaniewski and Rav Sussman from Yeshiva Sussmans and Rav Rafi Rosenblum and Rav Nelson Rich and Mrs. Rich and you just go Kasteder. The block is an amazing block.

18:21 It's a wonderful thing to raise your children on such a block. And I'm skipping people. There's so many. Sometimes I look around by the mignanim on the block, and I'm like, it's pretty crazy who's who. One of the very special couples that live on our block is Rabbi and Rebetzin Yudin. Those who went to Mechelat So you know Rebetzin Yudin. Rebetzin Yudin has a daughter who's a couple years older than my daughter. My daughter looked up to her. My oldest daughter looked up to her. I told my wife today, I have tremendous gratitude to the Yudin family, specifically to that daughter, because she set the tone. This is what it looks like to be a Bas Israel. And my oldest daughter picked it up, and my second daughter learned from her. And then we have a girl in the neighborhood who was like an across the street neighbor whose mom is like a Bas Bias and a daughter to me, and she picked it up and she sent it to my younger children.

19:17 To be the oldest is a tremendous responsibility. You're the bridge between the parents and everybody else. Parents rely on the oldest to communicate the message of what they deeply believe in to the rest of the family. Just because you're the oldest, though, doesn't mean that you're the bachar. Sometimes it happens. Sometimes it happens in families. That the oldest Chas V'Shalom abdicates their responsibility. That the oldest I know what my job is, but I'm not interested. And they let go of that achrayus that they have. Hopefully, another child picks it up, but it doesn't always go that way. This is what happened with Yaakov and Esav. Esav had a responsibility. He was the oldest. The responsibility of Esav. He was meant to be the leader. He was meant to transmit the values of his father Yitzchok to the next generation. He had a very bad day.

20:23 He had a very bad day. What did he do? He killed Nimrod. He was a murderer, Esav. He was a Rasha Merusha. I know today it's very popular, especially in certain segments of society, that all the Rishayim in Torah are made into tzaddikim and all the tzaddikim in Torah are made into Rishayim. But it's not true. It's not true. Esav was a very big Rasha. It was a very big Russia. Esav committed terrible, heinous crimes, and Yaakov Avinu said, "You're not. You can't be. You can't be the b'chhar." You can't be the b'chhar. I need to buy it from you. We need to make a deal. I see in you. You're not a person that's taking responsibility. You're a murderer. "You're not a person who's taking responsibility." Yaakov Avinu says, "I need to take that responsibility on myself." And they make a deal. What's the deal? The deal is Yaakovinu says I'm going to be the b'chhar. It means I'm going to be responsible for the avodah in the Beis Hamikdash. That's what Rashi says. To be a b'chhar means to be a Cohen.

21:21 Cain was supposed to be a Cohen. He lost it. Cain lost the fact that he was supposed to be a Cohen when he murdered Abel. The oldest is meant to be the Cohen. Esav was meant to be the kohen of Klal Yisrael. He was meant to be the priest. He was meant to be the leader. Yaakov Yenu said, 'You can't have it anymore. It needs to be mine.' But if you look in Rashi, Rashi says this. Rashi says just because you're appointed the kohen doesn't mean you're going to be the kohen. Who were supposed to be the Kohanim of Klal Yisrael? It was supposed to be the Bachar. And what happened? When did they lose it? anybody know? Chet Eigel. Chet Eigel. Because just because you're the firstborn doesn't make you the Bachar. It's something you have to live. It's something you have to embody. Esav doesn't like this. Esav says, "I'll sell you the b'chhar because I don't even know who's going to be the person who does the avodah in the Beis Hamikdash." Esav was already aware because Esav did have tremendous insight into the world. Esav said, "It's not obvious." Look in Rashi. This is what Rashi says. Esav says, "It's not obvious that I'm going to end up being the b'chhar even because the b'chhar is a transient thing. It belongs to one person one day."

22:28 And it could belong to somebody else the next day. Yaakovinu buys the bechor, but Hakadosh Baruch Hu never signs on the deal. Hakadosh Baruch Hu says, 'You bought it, but just because you bought it doesn't mean you are the bechor. We'll see. Let's give it time. Let's see how things play out. Then we'll decide who's the bechor.' Hundreds of years go by And Hakadosh Baruch Hu says to my shabenu, "Listen, I'm telling you, I know how the story ends. You want to know how the story of Yitzchias Mitzrayim ends? It ends with the following words: Bnei bechayri Yisrael. You're going to come to Paro and you're going to say, It's not you. It's not any b'charei in the world anymore. It's my children, b'nei b'charei Yisrael. They represent me. They're the ones. It's their responsibility to transmit my message to the rest of the world. Up until that point, it was up for grabs. anybody could have become the b'charei.

23:16 Anybody could have become the bechor. Yaakov, you bought it from Esav, but it doesn't mean that I'm not signing on the deal. Says Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Until Mitzrayim, and when in Mitzrayim? At the very end. Right before makas bechoris, then I'm going to sign. What's going to happen? Let's look at the words of Chazal because they're powerful, profound and amazing words. You want to be the bechor. That's what every one of us is charged with. You want to be the bechor. It requires two things. Number one It requires unbelievable chutzpah. That's what it means to be a yid. To be a yid means to have azas the kedusha. It's not a phrase that we use enough in this world. Azas the kedusha. We live in a world. I don't want to say anything negative. I don't want to say anything negative. Not one negative word about Klal Yisrael. We also have because we need to. There needs to be a reckoning.

24:14 Especially for those of us that are here in Eretz Yisrael Aziz the Kedusha. Aziz the Kedusha means that a yid today has to stand up and say "No No." You know We live in a world where you could kill Ayatollah Khomeini, and what will the world call Kali Yisrael? Murderers. Imagine if it was like that. We've lost our minds. Imagine if in the 40s somebody came along and assassinated Hitler and you called him a murderer. This man was responsible for the death of 40,000 of his own people, and I'm not talking about 10 years ago or 20 years ago. I'm talking about months ago. He killed 40,000 of his own people. The man was a Rasha Marusha, and what does the world say? You murdered a tzaddik. You murdered a person who was their religious leader, and what did you accomplish anyway? What are you talking about?

25:15 What are you talking about? What type of sick, diseased world are we living in? That a person assassinates an evil man. An evil man was killed. The world should be celebrating. And 70 percent—I don't want to again—I don't want to say anything negative.70 percent of Jews in America are against this war. Against this war. Where we clearly see what's going on in the world, we clearly see how Hashem Baruch Hu is eliminating every one of our enemies. If he would have told us on October 6th If He would have told us on October 6th that Hamas would basically be wiped out, that Hezbollah's leaders would be wiped out, that Assad in Syria would be gone, that Khomeini and his children would be killed, we don't even know if this new guy is alive. He's a cardboard cutout. That's all we can tell. All the rumors are going. Maybe he's in Russia. Maybe he's an amputee. Maybe he's a cardboard cutout.

26:13 I want to get a cardboard cutout for my seder. I want to have him there. Shvaycha maskal agayim. I want to throw him off my merpessa. Where is the azuz, the kedusha of Klal Yisrael? To stand up proudly and to say No, I will. I won't live within your tyrannical world anymore. " You know, it's takanes. It's a nase. It's a nase. It's an unbelievable case that those broken Jews were not nearly as broken today. Those broken Jews that were on the 49th level of tumah moments ago. Those Jews. They took that Paschal lamb. They took that little shepsula and brought it home. They marched it through the streets, and who was there? Their oppressors were there, and they marched them through the streets and listened to what they said to them. We're going to kill your god. And they weren't embarrassed to say it. We're going to kill your god.

27:24 We're sick of living in the restriction of Mitzrayim and the constriction and the oppression of Mitzrayim. That's what your God represents. You should know that the difference between a Jewish God and an Egyptian God is that worshiping their God was a form of power for them. Avodah Zarah means I'm not bottled to God. I'm not surrendering to God. Hashem surrenders to me. This was the world of oppression that Mitzrayim created. Listen to what these Jews did. They paraded their God through the streets and they said. We're not interested in this anymore. We don't live under your oppression. We don't live under your control. We're not subjugated by your power structure anymore. And the way Taisus brings it, it's even deeper. Every b'chare in the world was there. What does it mean? Every b'chare in the world was there. How did they know to come? The Maggid is saying a deep thing. There was a moment in time where every single b'chor is watching Klal Yisrael. Every single b'chor came to Mitzrayim, so to speak, and every single b'chor wants to know: Is this it? Is this the moment in time where they claim the throne?

28:32 And the answer is a resounding yes. That Klal Yisrael got up and they said, 'Not you, we.' We're the bechar of Hakadosh Baruch Hu. We represent the values. We take upon ourselves the mantle of responsibility to be the Kohanim for this world. We're going to do the avodah in the Beis Hamikdash. Not you. You are not doing the avodah in the Beis Hamikdash. It's not your job anymore to bring Hakadosh Baruch Hu down to the world. It's our job. It didn't happen on Pesach. We make a mistake and we think that on Pesach is when it happened. It's not true. It started this Shabbos. It was a process. It was a tahalich. Way before we shechted the carbon Pesach, we marched the carbon Pesach through the streets and listened to what the mitzrim did. This is the biggest nes of all. And there's a deep psychological secret here. If you're listening carefully, there's a deep psychological secret.

29:20 The b'charem knew it. They knew it. Every firstborn in that moment knew that's the end of me. Because if Klal Yisrael takes this responsibility, if they take the mantle of leadership. And I'm no longer the b'chard, unless Mitzrayim recognizes that we are going to be wiped out. What does it mean that Klal Yisrael said to them, 'You're going to die'? It means they understood in that moment there is no b'chard of Mitzrayim anymore. You don't play that role. They knew. They said, "That's it. Either we have a choice now. We can surrender to the fact that Klal Yisrael has this role, or we're all going to die." What did they do? They went to their fathers. They went to Paro and they said, "Let him go." What did their fathers say? Absolutely not. Why not? What are they fighting for? What's so bad about saying, 'Let him go'? They were suffering immeasurably. You know what the answer is? Because if Paro says we're letting Klal Yisrael go. If he says yes, I agree. I don't want the firstborns to die. You know what that means? It means the show is over. It means the game is over. There is no game left to play. Klal Yisrael has now been anointed the Kohanim of this world. Paro says to give into that is to lose everything.

30:31 Because that's a recognition that there is a God and that there's a mission, and that mission is for Klal Yisrael. Paro says I can't. So there's a civil war. This is how societies crumble. By the way, societies crumble when the truth becomes obvious, but the society will not accept that it's the truth. I'm telling you right now. Pay attention. Pay attention to what's happening in the world today, because there is truth that is so profoundly obvious. What's happening? Societies will not allow that truth to be held. That's how societies crumble. It's happening right now in the world. There's a big nase that happens the Shabbos. The nase is that a group of slaves Broken Paraded through the streets, and with Azas de Kedusha they said, 'We are the Shluchim of Hakadosh Baruch Hu in this world, and not you. It's our responsibility.' And you know what? Even bigger nase. They said it with such power, but not power like K'aychi va'asam Yodipel. Real power, power that comes from humility. Just a statement of like, this is obvious. You know what happened? The entire structure crumbled.

31:39 The entire structure crumbled when Klal Yisrael knew it so clearly. It is a moment that we have now in history—an unbelievable opportunity. We have everything we need. The world is looking at us. It makes no sense. Anybody who's paying attention knows that it makes no sense. When's the last time you heard about a war between Ukraine and Russia? It's like it's not happening. We're a sliver of land. We're like the least. We're like a sliver of land. The whole world is paying attention to our sliver. And another thing happened also: the entire world shrunk. You could write anything you want today on social media, and the entire world sees it. You could say whatever you want. Millions of views. The opportunity to talk is so vast right now. The world created a microphone that I could say something in Yerushalayim Eretz Yisrael and it could be heard in Australia and it could be heard in Singapore. Everybody is looking, and we right now in this moment have an opportunity to grab that microphone and to declare, Kaya Amar Hashem, Beni B'Chayri Yisrael, this our land. This our land. We can say the first Rashi and Chumash.

32:55 Hakadosh Baruch Hu created the world. He decides who gets what. And this is ours. We're the Rabbanim Shlom Shluchim in this world. There is a God. And He created us to communicate a message to the world. Are we doing it? It's Shabbos Hagadol. It's Shabbos Hagadol before Pesach. It's Shabbos Hagadol. We don't have to wait till next week in the middle of the week. Pesach already begins. Their Amma brings down a minig And it is a chash of a minig. Many people do it. Do you know that there are people that they start reading the Hagada already this Shabbos? That they read sections of the Hagada this Shabbos. Why are you reading the Hagada this Shabbos? Pesach hasn't started yet. Aren't we supposed to do it on that night? What's the answer? It's starting now. It's starting on Shabbos. Starting this Shabbos, we have to be walking through the streets of Yerushalayim with our little shepzelach.

33:51 We have to be declaring to the world: we have to say, Beni bechayri Yisrael. I'm not interested in you trying to be the bechar. Everyone has to decide for themselves what that looks like in their lives. Everyone has their own unique avoda. Far be it from me to tell any Jew how to live their life. Everybody has to decide where to make their mark. Every Jew has to decide, has to think for themselves. What does it look like for me to declare Beni B'Chari Yisrael? It's, it's And I want to be clear. I don't just mean that every one of us has to grab a microphone and say it on social media. I actually mean something really fundamentally different. I mean that the declaration has to be so loud internally that it becomes obvious to the entire world. What are we doing? What are we doing in these moments?

34:47 I get concerned sometimes. I get concerned that people are and not chas v'shalom because we don't have unbelievable akhar satov. We have unbelievable akhar satov to the malchus to the unbelievable malchus of chesed that is America. But just remember Habey shluchim alakom. Hashem Baruch Hu has many agents. America is just another shliach. It's just another shliach. And if we're sitting here thinking we're okay because America is fighting alongside of us That's not what it means to be Benev Shchay Yisrael. We were singing just moments ago. In this moment when Mashiach comes, we're going to rely on Hashem Baruch Hu and nobody else. It's our Father that's bringing Mashiach. Whatever shluchim he uses But for sure To be a bechar is a tremendous sense of responsibility. And it's lived. Hakadosh Baruch Hu signed on it. Hakadosh Baruch Hu said to Yaakov avinu It'll give it time.

36:02 Let Klal Yisrael become the people that you want them to be. They will become that. We're becoming that. Just because Hakadosh Baruch Hu signed doesn't mean that the show is over. Other Rabbah, the show began when Hakadosh Baruch Hu signed. And now it's our job. We're holding the star. Bnei B'chayy Yisrael. We're holding the star. So in these not even moments, not even seconds, in these milliseconds, as the process of Mashiach is coming to an end It's our responsibility to declare Bnei B'chayy Yisrael. To turn to the nations of the world and to say We are Hakadosh Baruch Hu's children. We've come home. We're living in our land. We're here to stay. We deeply appreciate everybody who's standing alongside of us in this mission to restore the Beis Hamikdash. Tucker Carlson got it right. He gets almost nothing right. But he got that right. Everyone's like.

37:06 This grand, messianic plan. We do. We have a grand messianic plan. And people like, no. It's bad that he found out. It's good. It's good that he found out. It's good that there's a thing he should know. We're yearning for Binyam Bayislishi. We're yearning for it. We're yearning for it. It doesn't have to just be for Chabad. Could be for all Jews. I know this has become a thing today. If you say the word Mashiach, you're Chabad. Chabad reminded us, maybe, of a truth that every Yid knows: "Ani mamim be'muna shleimah beviyas haMashiach." Yes, we yearn deeply for Binyamin b'Yeshlishi. These moments are coming to an end. The only question is, will we have the azus to kedusha to rise up? It'll be a nes gadol if it happens. It'll be a nes gadol if a people who are so deeply oppressed can rise up and declare with such unbelievable strength that the entire world has no choice but to surrender to the truth and to implode upon themselves. And everybody together will say, "Yes" Klal Yisrael, the chosen people And it's time for us to allow them to play their role in this world. To build for our Kodesh Baruch Hu." Dear, be tachtaynem. Girls, have a beautiful time.
