and Debbie Wizansky and two other anonymous donors. It's dedicated l'ilui nishmas our dear friend Reb Binyamin ben Yisrael Chaim ben Chanina z'l. Should have a refuah shleimah u'vizut kol Yisrael. Without any further ado and as well as Reb Dovid Chaim ben Tzvi ben Dovid. Okay. Thank you so much. Reb Shmuel ben Reb Zalman it's an honor to be in your presence. One of the builders or the builder of the Passaic Jewish community. So thank you and thank you for this z'chus the privilege and invitation to be here in such an incredible environment greeting the Yeshiva from all of you who uh I know that the uniqueness of this Yeshiva is the people who work become transformed and immersed in Torah. So, today what I want to do with you is take a topic that's connected to this week this parashah the haftarah actually of this parashah and explore it from different perspectives and then try to bring it home and make it relevant to each of our lives. So, you gave out the source sheets. Yeah, okay. Okay, so we're going to begin with source sheet number two. Page two of the source sheets. The second paragraph we see says Sukkah Kuf Tazayin Amud Bet. If you don't have it, that's fine. I'll read it. But, if you have it, it'll be nice to follow inside. This is a few lines from a Gemara in Zevachim of Kuf Tazayin, page 116. And um let me just give context before we see inside. Everybody knows that parashah Shelach deals with a fascinating and tragic story of Moshe sending 12 miraglim 12 spies to scout the land.
