So, today's class is dedicated in honor of the first yard site of Hannah Hannah Bas Reb Dovid Zichrona L'Vracha a woman of tremendous chesed and kindness generosity and benevolence dedicated by her daughter and grandson from Sydney, Australia. Thank you to Hayden Neshama Bas Tzurah B'Tzror HaChaim. It's also dedicated L'Ilui Nishmas HaRav Reb Uriel Ravnoi Zichrona L'Vracha dedicated by his father and the entire family the family dedicated by Dr. Reb Shaltiel Z'ev Ravnoi and the entire family in loving memory of his son Reb Uriel Ravnoi who was actually a student of mine many years ago.

Also dedicated L'Zecher Nishmas Reb Chaim Reb Michal Reb Chaim Weldler in honor of his 20th yard site on the 12th day of Shvat yesterday Yud Beis Shvat Tehei Nishmaso Tzurah B'Tzror HaChaim may they remain eternal sources of light, blessing and inspiration for you, their families and all of Klal Yisrael and thank you very much. Maybe we should just maybe a lack that. Thank you. Okay. Today we're going to take a story that at the surface it looks like one story, but if you dig a little deeper, a whole other story gets revealed and unveiled. And the story has particularly very practical and profound relevance to our times, as we will see. It gives us the perspective of Yiddishkeit, true authentic Yiddishkeit. How do we look at another person, how we feel and empathize with another person. And I think we'll give us at least a little perspective and how and how we view our soldiers, the Israeli soldiers fighting now in Gaza. So, let's begin.
