tells his daughters, [clears throat] "I worked for your father for love and with all of my might, with all of my strength." And spiritually there is a powerful lesson here in how dedicated one must be to their boss to some to their employer and to the abisher who is our employer. We're going to learn a mleus uh of Rambam and the alterba uh of Rambam and the alterba very nuanced very detailed in the words of the Rambam and of the Alterba. And we're going to end with a fascinating fascinating lesson. Let us begin the end of the of hiring workers. Just like the employer is prohibited to steal the wages of the employee. Here it steal the wages of the employee. Here it says, but it's referring to an employee whether he's poor or he's rich. He's not allowed to withhold the wages. So too, the employee is prohibited to steal from the owner, from the employer by wasting some time here and there. And then the whole day passes in deceit in he's cheating him out of the work. The employer is obligated to be precise in the time that all the time that he's supposed to be working he should work. Another point says that the person is obligated the employee is obligated to use all of his strength. Omar says to his daughters with all of my strength I served your father and therefore he received reward for this even in this world as it says that the person the man was very successful was very wealthy. So from this that teaches that also an employee that takes a job has to work sometimes you can get away you know with uh with do doing a job and you're not using you're not investing all your allam says if you are employed by someone you must invest your all into
