What’s said in this shiur

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

so before we get back to the end of australia i wanted to look at the uh something i just saw on travis about the beginning of us right which is um uh very interesting this is on this week's past week's partial varsity always introduces the powershot with a puzzle from michele and he speaks laplace's name connects it to the parsha so here he he starts his boss actually i mean actually the person who always is afraid somebody the person who always is afraid somebody who hardens his heart is going to fall into negative stuff bad stuff so the uh uh but obviously the show my mother praising people are constantly uh afraid not to mess up they're afraid to mess up i should say and therefore they're constantly watching what they're doing as opposed to somebody who is hard-hearted which really doesn't really pay attention to what he should be paying attention so the um the uh but what's what's interesting here is that what he says here um here um the second paragraph he's killed russian ashrae i never i never thought this before uh ashrae shalom is plural singular would be a share but we say ashrae and we never ever never use or a share and we never ever never use or a share the closest when we say to a person yahshua it's really the same thing as saying i share then we don't don't say in pool yeah share and i'll share are really synonymous we say it in singular but here in uh whenever we say actually saying plural but time is we don't praise the person who just has one good trait or one

  7. 23:12[Music] is
  8. 27:25maybe when they say they don't they don't express their views it sounds like ishtaba which
  9. 30:58very coarse and animalistic it's not a refined type of intuitive melody which uplifts the soul
