What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Sicha Women Shiur - Project Likkutei Sichos’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

the beginning of a new book the fifth book of the hummish and we're going to look right at the beginning the very first pasuk of the first peric so this is the opening line of the book of devarim this is the introduction to this entire book of the torah that these are the words that moshe spoke to the jewish people this you could call the so-called last will and testament the last speech of moshe to the jewish people where did he say it but eva yarden when they were on the other side of the jordan meaning to say that the side that's not yet in israel bamidbar in the desert by rava in the plains moil surf across from the so-called reeds which obviously alludes to yamsuf the sea of reeds bainparon or veintofel the lavon vacation which is ostensibly a whole series of places so we're going to start a little bit backwards we're going to start with the last rashi on the pasuk but in order to contextualize the last rashi we'll have to look at some of the other rashes and then based on that we're actually going to go and explore the whole message of this possum so it all emerges out of the last rashi so the last rashi vedi says is not a place see when the apostle describes the setting it sounds like it's giving us geographical locations the desert the plains
