What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Aaron L Raskin’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

who was SRA the Torah tells us that Sarah lived years 20 years and seven years these are the years of SRA why couldn't the Torah simply say she lived 127 years what does it meaning 100 years and then 20 years and then seven years and then it concludes these were the years of Sarah Sashi says a fascinating thing listen very carefully Rashi says like this the reason the Torah tells us first she lives a 100 years and then 20 years and then seven years is to teach us the following Bas she was 100 years like she was 20 years to sin implying that a person who is 20 years old according to Torah law does not get punished from Heaven until they're 20 in other words even though a person a boy at the age of 13 and a girl at the age of 12 become which means they become an adult and responsible for their actions however the Heavenly Court does not punish a person until they become 20 the court down here can punish a person after their bar mitah so a girl after 12 will get punished or a boy after 13 will get punished but the Heavenly courts will not punish a person until 20 and therefore says the Torah that when she was 100 she was like 20 she was pure from SIN number two she was 20 like seven what does that mean Le to Beauty just like a seven-year-old girl is beautiful when she was 20 years old she had that same Beauty and Purity as a seven-year-old girl and then it goes on to say she these were the years of that they were all equal for good they were all good all 127 years were equally good now what
