progress. >> Did you hear about who wanted to come into the teva? You heard about it? Noach had a very uh interesting request for a guest in his teva. It wasn't an animal. It was a concept. The Chofetz Chaim brings in the opening piece of parshas Noach, "Asa shekra ba'eilama." Falsehood knocked on the door. "Let me in. I want to come into the teva." Amalei Noach, "No, it's two at a time. You need a zug." "You need a shidduch." Amalei Noach, "Less at yachol al kein nisvas l'chazug. You got to get married." Paga b'piksa. So, falsehood met detriment. Met loss. Amalei min on ad asi, "Where are you going?" Amalei min gabei Noach, "D'azlus ba'eilama t'viza sh'agalei." Loss asked falsehood, "Hey, where are you going?" So, falsehood said, "I'm coming from the teva. I tried to get in. I couldn't get in." Ela amalei "E at l'cha bazug at me'al." He told me if I have a partner, I could enter. "Vi at boi t'hav zugi?" "Will you marry me?" Wow, this What a What a beautiful romantic encounter between falsehood and loss. Falsehood Can you imagine? Falsehood was walking out of the teva with his face down on the floor. He was just humiliated. He was not allowed entry, and he met piksa. So, lo uh sheker said to loss, "I can't come in unless uh unless I have a zug. Maybe you want to marry me." Amalei "Uma ad yavidli?" "We'll get married." This is This is a business relationship. What are you going to give me if I marry you? So, askin b'einayim, they made the following takana. They made the following agreement. The whole the shidduch machanis they piksa nisba the olam to veil the tivisa. Basically, the deal was whatever gain whatever false
