What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Yaakov Mizrahi’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
When it comes to a person coming to learn Torah, "Rabbi, I tried. I'm telling you I gave Gimara Shiur. I'm telling you I tried, Rabbi. Be patient. Have patience. To be great kingdom beneath Israel, we need the midos of the heart." And that is the difference between a sefer Torah and a shoe. Hm? Sefer Torah and a shoe. What are we talking about? What are we talking about? The shoe one time had a ta'ana, had a claim against the sefer Torah. The shoe also comes from a piece of leather that came from a cow. And out of this piece of leather, he became a shoe. People step on him. All day long he's going in the mud, place to place. When he gets home, they leave him outside in the cold. And when they're done, they throw it And when they're done, they throw it away into the garbage. The shoe said, "What I do? I came from a piece of leather from a cow. And look. Look how they treat him." But a sefer Torah, l'havdil, every vowel they have the Lord The sefer Torah also comes from leather. But they take the Torah and they dance with the Torah and they beautify the Torah and they put it in the Aron HaKodesh and they kiss the Torah and they respect
