grandfather grandmother who was here this week by jodians [clears throat] of standard memory of Jod's Aba Mickey wall upon his 10th yard site Ysef and by the Deutsche's memory of Abram's mother Sarah Batite is this week okay we have a lot to get to a lot to cover I'm very excited that we began last week's year we just did the we just did the uh dedication Call me. Okay. So, [clears throat] Rand in the second know your children. The the question that came up last week is um why do you need to love your children? Which sounds like a stupid question. It sounds like a very ridiculous question even. But when we look at the when we kind of think about it when we think about it the way we we unfolded it last week week we understood that um loving not giving love to your child one morning may be okay. It's like them missing breakfast them not giving love to your kid one afternoon and one evening and they miss three meals a day. That's a little bit more complicated, but that can't continue. And we likened love that a child receives from parents to to spiritual nourishment. When we look to spiritual nourishment. When we look at it like that, it changes the way that we approach this whole concept of giving love, showing love, expressing love. But it's much more than that. It's not just that. That was just the beginning. And what we're going to be seeing today as you see the topic in front of us is The word in Hebrew means essentiality.
