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

thank you in the Parsha that precedes Rosh Hashanah we read an incredible verse which says the following is foreign this verse means the following here this Mitzvah that I have presented to this Mitzvah that I have presented to you today it's not far from you it's not distant it's not difficult for you to accomplish it is close to you it's very close to you it's within the ability of your mouth and your heart to attain this mitzvah the ramban explains that this mitzvah is referring to the Mitzvah of Toshiba of repentance and the question is why is the word and the question is why is the word which means this Mitzvah doesn't spell it out exactly which Mitzvah is referring to so what is this word and how do we understand it so I heard a beautiful idea the numerical value of the word zotes is 408 the Zionist seven the aleph is one and the tough is 400 which is 408. and we see in the prayers of Rosh Hashanah Yom Kippur one of the most soul-stirring parts of our prayer is the soul-stirring parts of our prayer is the natanatokif in which we plea for our lives and we understand that this is an opportunity if we're standing in judgment before God and we can really ask for life in fact the words that we actually say is era shuva repentance Tila prayer and sadaka charity mavirina they annul the evil decree
