[Music] good evening today we are learning parashat vayigas we are on page 251 in the art scroll homage and last week we spoke about the 10 brothers coming to egypt because of the famine that joseph because of the famine that joseph predicted and through that prediction he became the the viceroy the prime minister the president of egypt with paro being the king and uh josef is the president the ten brothers come searching for him and in order to buy food and joseph recognizes them and he decides to test recognizes them and he decides to test them and he tests them again and again and again until finally he forces them to bring binyamin and then he puts a silver goblet like a like a silver kiddush cup into binyamin's bag and after they leave egypt to go back to yaakov he sends messenger to intercept them he sends messenger to intercept them and to arrest them and they search their bags and they find that indeed the goblet is in binyamin's bag and they realize that they have been set up they now have a a great choice either to submit and go to a death and go to a death or to become slaves or to fight and uh an important question is is asked we know that the the the children of yaku were very strong and not only that we know that they also had spiritual power so why is it that they're not using it avraham with just his avraham with just his servant eliezer and according to the simple shot uh with 318 soldiers he fought against the huge army yaakov single-handedly was able to lift a rock that took a whole village to pick up yaakov's two sons just shimon and levi destroyed the entire city
