What’s said in this shiur

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

Tonight we'll discuss what happened afterwards to Masha. What was the followup? And much of this has to do with legend more than with items that have a clear macar in the pipkin. But nevertheless, being that this touches on a hakic issue, this is our discussion for this evening. The goodbye, the last mention of Makasha. What happened afterwards? As you know, Malash Shabbah came from Africa, came from Kush. Presumably, Malasha, as all Africans, was black skinned. Halakically, that makes no difference. A Jew is a Jew. And the Ramb tells us that all of the foreign women who married. He says for one to think for a moment that they were and that married non-Jews god forbid certainly they were mega and that would extend also to makasha which would mean that she was that she was Jewish and that she returned subsequently to Kush somewhere some land in Africa. And this would give us a thought for having her descendants Jews in Kush, Jews in Africa. We find in Navi in many of the Nu that are mentioned that refer to the ultimate redemption of the Jews that they refer to a redemption from Kush. For example, Hashem will bring Jews back for the second time following the Jews that will remain in the time of Mashiach. will bring back Jews from Africa. And we find this also in the a reference to Jews returning from the land of Kush from Africa. Now, which Jews does this refer to? One can argue this refers to Jews who have moved to Africa. Be it to Jews who moved to South Africa or Egyptian Jews. are Jews in other lands. Jews are dispersed throughout the world. However, one issue that has enthralled and mystified Jews throughout the centuries has been the status, the hakic status or the origins
