What’s said in this shiur

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

rafua of yose saddakb y rus should also have a complete continued complete rafua we are reading paras mik page 222 this is a para near and dear to my heart you're not allowed to play favorites among parios every one of them of course is all of our favorite everyone has timeless lessons for today. But uh I love this para even if it didn't always love me. But page 222, we uh continue with the story that we last left off. The drama that is unfolding, even though we know the way it turns out, nevertheless, every year it turns out, nevertheless, every year when we reread it, we can't help but be gripped by the drama, by what is unfolding before our eyes, by what was orchestrated and choreographed from above all these dreams to actually come to fruition and come true in the most unexpected of ways. I want to begin with an insight of raita and his new safer para which really connects the para and kanaka. I'd be remiss if we came together to learn the minor is burning bright over there as it does in shul in the mornings not only at night and to the mornings not only at night and to not draw from the light of kaneka to illuminate our lives. So he has a beautiful idea beautiful essay here. can't learn or read the entire thing but just to bring the highlight and he says we know the para begins Yoseph interprets the dreams of parro and the two dreams that Yose that parro has in succession have the same interpretation and Yseph is able to do something that none of the other advisors magicians sorcerers none of the others can do and what is it exactly that appeals to parro
