What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Mordechai Salfer’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

everybody knows that the the nile river the nilus is the way that the mitsrim would get all of their hatslacha because what would happen anybody knows what would happen you know the story would overflow its banks right it would come in you know what i'm talking about what's this travel through canals yeah that's what they finally did they realized how to make canal systems and spread it out but the way you just got this where do you get a nile river what happens is that the water from the mediterranean takes a lot of dirt also with silt that's the like a good really good dirt from i think ethiopia and it travels all the way to ethiopia and it travels all the way to egypt and egypt's nile river overflows we've seen overflow right down here in this block overflows and the whole thing is full of good fertilizer and then it's able to to grow things really well but the biggest reason why there's the benefit of this overflowing is because um yeah it's really dry in is because um yeah it's really dry in fact it you know what the rainfall is in egypt the annual yet zero all year long it does not rain so the only way they get water and the only way that they get any kind of irrigation or you know being able to to water their stuff is with this river oh it's a couple other ways i mean it's also pretty close to water so once you're close to water the water goes underneath
