uh i just want to know is there a a reason why there's uh flowers we always get flowers and we see in this in the shulls uh flower a big bouquet of flowers on the bema well the uh it's interesting that the jewish people who take trees into their house and when the non-jewish people have trees on their holidays have taken from the jewish people because we used to take trees and shoes into the house like most of the things that they do is taken from us naturally from us naturally palm sunday you know it's from the lulu except they got mixed up because it's not no they're not pesos it's not palm sunday but all they're all they're uh baptizing as with the mikvah i mean they just everything that they do was taken from the jewish people so trees used to have takens into house and shoes we take trees into the house the reason for that is because the holiday of shivas we told that there is a a mishpot a judgment
