What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Mendel Kessin’s own words— taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
This year should be a blessing and a merit for the health and success of the families of Regina Bas Yose Fuven and Yeshisil Pinyam Wolf Benesh Bor Benyam Wolf Ruain Ben Regina. Uh he should have a rama. It should also go for Schlmer for Esta Libo Bas Yafa and Schlommo le Ben Fagger and the Shia should go for a and Maz for all these people. Thank you. There is a certain idea which I'd like to share with everybody to answer the question. Why doesn't the gula happen? Why doesn't redemption happen? So we know that one of the reasons why is because of what's called Russian horror because people denigrate other people other Jews. a Jew denigrates another Jew and there's a tremendous amount of lush horror spoken uh among the unfortunately among the Jewish people and that prevents the redemption but one of the ideas which is difficult to understand is look the redemption is not simple you know the redemption uh is a tremendous uh event and how could something prevent such a significant idea of redemption because we speak Russian horror. Why should that prevent the redemption? I mean the Jewish people need it so much. So why should the fact that there's a lot of lust and horror which is of course a bad sin you know but it's a social sin where you can harm somebody through your speech. It is the communicative ability to harm people using the power of speech. that that actually can prevent the Jewish people from being redeemed. Apparently, yes, that's what the says. But why should that happen? That is the question. What is the power of speaking Shinhara to actually prevent such a necessary item as being redeemed from evil?
