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

courageously heroically you the steps up he steps out he approaches yosef not knowing of course that it's his brother yosef and he confronts them and he says can i please speak to you don't get upset don't get frustrated who is like you you are like paro you're so in command you're so in charge can i come speak to you and then he begins to review the entire history until that point there's so many questions to ask on this opening we've taken a look at it many times before but what is going on here first of all what does it mean yehuda is approaching yosef if you turn back one page in the hamish mushroom on the way in you should always take one easier to follow inside at the very end of last week's parachute we have a whole week in between you have to do so you shouldn't have a whole week you should have less than a day in between but in hearing the parsha being read in shul there's a whole week in between so we forget where we left off last week before we pick up this week but at the end of last week's passion yehuda is already talking to yosef so what does it mean by higashi love you da what does it mean that yehuda approaches yosef and asks if he can continue moreover he repeats part of a conversation that never happened he quotes jose of having said things that he never said moreover he asks a question which is an absurd question about about a father being alive not alive they've already discussed this but mostly most compellingly the question is why is he even recounting everything
