hello my friends a good nerf shabbos happy friday followed by a beautiful wonderful and inspirational shabbosko before i begin i'd like to mention that today's class is being given specifically as a in memory the iloi nishmas my father ava murakai ben mosheim also i'd like to do something a little different before we begin take a look at this picture i'm going to play a game and the game is what does that picture have to do with what i'm saying right now if you have the answer call me 305-773-0943 and the winner will get a prize so today's partial is actually the saddest partial in the torah it talks about when the spies came back moshe and the jewish people got up to the borders of israel and the jewish people insisted we want to send in spies and spy out the land and moshe asked god's permission to say you want to send send so they sent in 12 spies 10 of the 12 came back with a negative report and instigated the entire jewish people and instigated the entire jewish people or most of the jewish people against going into israel one of the things they said in the report is we saw these massive people and we looked like grasshoppers in our own eyes and we looked like gravistoppers in their eyes too now if you think about that line logically it should be the opposite we look like grasshoppers in their eyes
