What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Chacham Baruch Ben-Haim ztl’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

good evening my friends we are now at the threshold of the the holiday the glorious holiday of pesach and we will say a few words regarding the essence of pesach of course it is known that pesach which means passover it's because when hashem killed the firstborn of the egyptian the angel of death that took care of that would not know how to distinguish between an israeli house an egyptian house and therefore the jewish people were told that they should paint on the doorposts of their houses with blood of the lamb and thus the angel of death will see the sign of blood and he will pass over he will skip the jewish house and he would go to the egyptian house to destroy the firstborn and that's by the way the reason for corban pesach and that's the reason why on friday morning this year of course which is iref pesach all the first born of the jewish people are under the obligation to fast as an act of gratitude to the almighty god that he made an effort i mean so to speak to save in the midst of the gezera in the midst because our sages said in the gemara bishop when permission is given to the destroyer he does not distinguish between good and bad everyone is in the same has the same problem but in the case of the jewish people at the time of their redemption from egypt hashem made a special case in this case and the angel of death distinguished and made a difference between the jewish house and the the egyptian house and thus only the firstborn of the egyptian people died and the jewish firstborn were unscathed
