What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Sicha Women Shiur - Project Likkutei Sichos’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

The midrash says that Hashem gave us judges and laws because he loves us. What does that mean? The first in this week's par which says that you should have judges and policemen tells us. What could you compare this to? It's like a king who had many sons. And he loved the youngest son more than the rest of them. And he had one beautiful orchard. And he loved that orchard more than everything else that he had. So the king said, "I'm going to take this orchard that I love more than all my other assets and give it to this youngest son that I love more than my other sons. Likewise says of all the nations that are created. I love the Eden especially as the says so. So as the says like the says because Israel is like a youth and I love him and of everything I created. All I love is justice laws says who loves judgment. So therefore the med concludes that says I'm going to give that which I love which is laws to the people I love which is the Jewish people. That's the meaning of this para says what do he means doesn't seem to make sense. First of all why do we have a mosh in the first place?
