Okay, we're holding here in the mime of Purim right and we are up to pedek the end of page 125 close to the bottom. Today's class is dedicated by Noyam Kapak for the continued good health of Rifka Bas Yehudis. Amen. Thank you very much. Okay. I told you that next week I'm going to so uh there's going to be a class for the women on Tuesday morning but then I'm flying. So next week and the week after there won't be any that's next week and the week after huh. [Music] Okay. What was the we learned yesterday? Take a dangst. [Music] Okay, I got you. Thank you. Thank you. The point the the main point was that the existed during the time of Esther turned into the lack of das which would fit which would which on one level would be something challenging difficult tragic turns in to something that is greater beyond greatness. It turns into the migilla which doesn't have Hashem's name. And here again it's the same paradox. It doesn't have a name. It's I don't know you. I don't see you. Certainly don't see the beauty. But it turns into touching the core that is beyond names. The name of Yakov is Yeshua and the regular classic name of the Jewish people. It's also not in the migillah but it turns into Yehudi which represents the submission the the surrender the relationship with that which is beyond intellect and therefore it's not something I grasp but something I surrender to. I'm my mas like and it's here that all the Jews are completely equal both in the decree they're equal it's not like oh makai you're really Jewish you know this Jew is a half a go no for the for the hmon every Jew is no
