What’s said in this shiur

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

okay good evening everybody Welcome we're going to speak tonight Hashem about Sarah Pala machpela means to be doubled ful in modern Hebrew if you want to fold your clothes you say your Capel the idea of something which is kafu in the lashon in the understanding of our rabbis is not merely something and rabbis is not merely something and something else it's the same thing doubled everybody who's born in Born excuse me buried him to a ska which is kafu a double reward so I want to try and understand exactly what makes a person fit Roy to be buried and I want to also discuss something which is very much uh in part of our lives today which is the modern culture that we live in and how that culture is really antithetical to the idea of what Mark Baylor stands for and I want to start first with the discussion about the language of the age which is film when I say film I don't mean necessarily acetate plastic with uh back in the day acetate plastic with uh back in the day nitrate or whatever it was cellulose I'm talking about the language of something which is now called videos and probably in 20 years will be called something else little metaphorsed a little morphed into the metaverse and Beyond but it's interesting because at the time when film started nobody understood that film was a language film started off basically as a penny arcade kind of entertainment
