What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Yaakov Klein’s own words— taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
was really beautiful and at the same time of course purim was challenging here in yerushalayim what the rest of the world found out on shushan purim was very very much in the height in the thick of our purim here and it was interesting trying to process trying to grapple with trying to move into a shabbos with that overarching awareness of course of the loss of the god al-hadar of khaim kanyevsky will speak about beijer hashem and the latter part of the sheer with the help of the master of the world it was certainly uh it was certainly a challenge it was certainly a difficult balance and an attempt to figure out a way to feel a thousand emotions at once and i think that at this point it's very important for all of us to try to hold on to purim we prepared a lot for purim the number of the cover here were on the torah yud khabura however far you got but it was there was a rut zone from a long period of time ago to prepare for this washington to allow something certainly something like this but anything and we'll speak about what that means something like this how this is supposed to be it's supposed to be a a catalyst for growth and not the opposite but but anything should never come in the way of everything that we prepared for everything that we experienced what we believe purim is certainly what we believe purim is vis-a-vis or in relation to pesach and um to continue to hold on to all of that joy even in a difficult period of time for a miserable a difficult period of time for the world but all of us princess oriented jews like we always like using this
