okay good evening everyone and uh welcome back to another week of going through the parasha shevua trying to pull out pertinent messages and ideas and uh i very much appreciate all of your patience with the weeks that we don't have two weeks ago it was pure night and last week my family has been very busy with my father-in-law in the icu who was born hashem having a miraculous reforeshleima miraculous reforeshleima so we are all appreciative for all of your prayers and your warm wishes and your thoughts and we will dedicate tonight's year in the slos in the merit that along the miriam should continue to have a miraculous refusal and that we should have him home sooner than later there's a very tragic episode in this week's parasha with the sons of aranakayan that it says that when no damn wanted so badly to bring an offering into the base amigos although they weren't told to its different method say different things but there was a tremendous tremendous desire that they had to be able to get closer and closer to hashem the problem is is that you can only get closer to hashem if you do it in the way that the quran himself tells you to do it and over here the posix says that they and over here the posix says that they were they brought in zara they brought a strange fire to hashem and the truth be told is that when the rambam speaks about the beginnings of aveda zara which is idol worship he explains in the same vein that always are doesn't mean that you're worshiping idols that's not the language of avoiding means service which is zara which is strange that means that you're doing something
