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.

come let's build a city well migdal in a tower so in other words they didn't just want to build a tower they wanted to build a city as well so what was the intention of building the city they didn't have enough cities they certainly had cities before Russia the top of the tower will be in the heavens Vanessa Salon of Shame will make a name for ourselves lest we be scattered throughout the world says Rashi rashi's going on possible plastic Olive says foreign they said like this who does God think he is that he puts us down here and he gets the whole upper world for himself here we're all down here we have to share it and he's all by himself up there's not Fearless it's not fair that he who does he think he is to select the upper spheres let's go up to the heavens let's wage war with him now is that a very satisfying explanation they're going to wage war with God what exactly are they going to do they're going to build a tower climb up to the heavens what are they going to use a sword they can use uh how are they gonna fight with god with what what exactly does this mean and then rashi rashi then says another chat the words don't mean a one definitive plan but regarding God every 1 656 years harakia missed my date the heavens collapse because like it happened in times of the Bible
