So going from one sh to the other I am more and more in a spoil and moved. So first I thank the love for having me here. We met Friday morning I think when the labonum came together and uh early in the morning to see this huge crowd people standing no room to sit really people standing no room to sit really touches my heart and and it's very moving and it's inspiring to me and not only to you. So I've spoken many times since I arrived in town Friday morning but I was told that this morning it should be alum shashir. Most of the sham I gave here in town areuk and that is important is as important as anything else is as important as anything else especially in these special days. But I'm happy to feel at home as if I'm speaking to my co. So we are in the midst of the fast days starting reaching a climax tish and he spoke a few times already about the but today will be a sh and the spoke about the bikur is it and the spoke about the bikur is it examining or visiting. Today we will visit 33 sites gal ani vito nello mater and we will be discussing 33 different fast days and breaking them down to four is categories of benzikin of benzikin one of the great khushim in isim and today I say and there are four fundamental categories of aos chuva ritsui and za.
