What’s said in this shiur

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

desire Hashivenu Hashem Elcha to you. We don't want any intermediary. We don't want any go-between. We want to learn Torah directly from you like we learned on Har Sinai panim el panim. We don't want even a Moshe in between us like the pasuk says in Yeshayahu Uvanayich limudei Hashem.
