[music] Heat. Heat. [music] [singing] >> [music] >> It's your [music] [singing] kesh. I meant that. Let me explain. In Mish um there's a pic. I don't remember where it is. probably the role knows Travis Burkusarim Akira Kiras the blessing of a yashar elevates the city. So there's the dash rashonim and he says like this people say uh good evening good morning and they're just greeting someone that's not a yashar a yashar is so when he says good morning he want he's giving you a braha he's not just greeting you and he wants the entire morning to be great for you okay that so that's that's a big difference there was one r that was this and the yeshiva I'd say good morning Rabbi Beller and you say amen [laughter] most they're surprised that you said it so I'm going to say hesish to and if you say that sincerely it could be your mashpia that is entire hesish is amazing okayish to >> huh all right well I I'm not supposed to b that my toem will be but please God all All right, Rabbi Travis asked me to speak about Hanukkah. It's only Ro Cotes. So, I'm saying to myself, "Wait a minute. You sure, Rabbi? It's like three weeks from now." I'm so glad he asked because right now we have three weeks to really um attain the growth you could have. Also on Hana, Hanukkah is going to be Msugal, but this is the whole hodish. So I want to give you two avodas that are completely relevant to Hanukkah but they're also let's start now it'll be amazing. Okay. So the first one is this um in order to mine this you know with Hanukkah especially focus on the songs Nicku so you can become enemy centered. right
