Okay, friends. Shalom aleichem, bracha u'bracha. We have an amazing topic today in preparation for the Yom Tov of Shavuos, haba aleinu l'tova. Next sefer in the queue is the sefer Sifsei Yeshua, the Spanish edition. And right now there's an amazing opportunity because it is going to print imminently. The only thing is it's missing one thing. It's missing someone to put their name on their cover. If anybody would like for a special opportunity because uh a few months ago the offer that's available now was not on the table, but because of the urgency of the matter, if anybody wants to step forward to help bring this uh to the public and help see give it uh the see the light of day, please contact us ASAP. One of the great achievements of the Jewish people at Kabbalas HaTorah, aside from receiving the actual Torah, is the level that our souls elevated and catapulted us to, and that is the response of the Jewish people to Hashem's offer, and that response, of course, is known as Na'aseh v'Nishma. Na'aseh v'Nishma. Literally, we will do and we will listen. And there's a lot of discussion and a lot of explanation and elucidation and explication. What is the meaning of Na'aseh? What is the meaning of Nishma? And why was Na'aseh said before Nishma? And what we're going to explore today is 10 amazing approaches for why Klal Yisrael and the explanation for how Klal Yisrael said Na'aseh v'Nishma, and maybe we'll throw in an extra one or two for good measure. Many uh I think that the response of na'aseh v'nishma must be somewhere in parshas Yisro, the parsha of kabbalas Torah. But, I'm sure all of you uh uh remember that in fact the response in parshas Yisro is na'aseh, and the phrase na'aseh v'nishma appears in parshas Mishpatim. He took the book of covenant.
