forward to being to going again, to having another beautiful opportunity to uh see and to bear witness to something that was one of the most uh horrific and most tragic things that ever happened, not just to the Jewish people, but to humanity. And um if you can make it, it is absolutely a must uh for people to go. So, November 29th to December 3rd, we have Rabbi Pinto with us this Shabbat, Rabbi David Pinto shlita. So, please join us for that. If you want to join on the Friday night, you have to RSVP, so please make sure you see uh the uh WhatsApp groups or the social uh media posts where you can uh log in and reserve your place uh for the dessert and dinner, the bracha and the class with the Rabbi. He's also going to be here in the mornings in the morning uh for both minyanim and for seudah shlishit. And um uh and the bezrat Hashem, we'll be zocheh to have a magnificent Shabbat. Last but not least, please go out today and vote. Um we have days are winding down for the early voting and we're going to only have election day left and it's going to be long lines. So, please make sure that you do what you need to do and uh and exercise this incredibly important mitzvah. Let's begin. So, we have a beautiful uh teaching that goes in many different directions and in fact is something that people can interpret and learn from in a myriad different ways. The pasuk tells us that Abraham Avinu was waiting for guests and sends him three angels and the angels turn out to be they look like they're regular travelers wandering dirty through the desert and the commentaries ask a very interesting question. If was already sending Abraham Avinu all of these angels
