okay it's oriental today is the fourteenth day of mara and we last a lesson a couple of lessons we discussed the idea of kanos claims and amaklao's excuses and we gave a important explanation is what it means claims against the ship where it's not that you are initiating the claim but hashem is helping you the claim but hashem is helping you make the claim in order to defeat him we discussed this at length yesterday now we're going to move on to the second thing that you'd say during his bladeduce as we begin chapter page iron test what is this idea excuses giving excuses for your behavior before giving excuses for your behavior before hashem part of his produce you admit what your sins are and yet if you balance criticism and excuses so the question is what does it mean what does and you're explaining between you and hashem and you're giving your excuses what does it mean an excuse so he says are not answers or excuses who can offer answers before hashem who inspects our innards he knows everything that's going on all is revealed before hashem if hashem knows everything so and what's the excuse the excuse is hashem you don't understand you don't understand hashem let me give you an explanation you're caught you know your parents tell you don't eat anything until before you don't eat anything until before supper i bake cookies don't eat these cookies that one happens boom your mother catches you with your hands in the cookie jar she's young i told you not to touch the cookies not a guy wants to make an excuse and he says but mom you forgot to pack me lunch in school and i haven't had anything since breakfast and it's five o'clock i'm starving that's an excuse and it might be a good excuse
