What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Elimelech Biderman’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
Entering into such high days, Yonas Esther and Yo with the firs is written in the book of the Poskim. The Poskim bring the words of the Levite Solomon who fasted on the Fast of Esther. The four fasts that are fasted are because they have gone through troubles that have not yet been forgotten. On the 17th of Tishah, on the 17th of Temujin, the 17th of Temujin, the 17th of Gad, they have not yet been forgotten. But why do they fast on the Fast of Esther? This is a fast that has already, thank God, been forgotten and there were miracles on fast that has already, thank God, been forgotten and there were miracles on fasts. The Poskim bring the words of the Levite because in the days of Mordechai and Esther, they were stripped of their clothes on a day to walk and stand on their own two feet and they had to ask for mercy and supplications that God would help them to wean themselves from their burdens and to beg for them when they were on the day of battle. And on the day of battle, they fasted. Therefore, all Israel used to say, "You are my servant, and I will search for you, Esther."
