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.

want to tell you something which really captured my attention and that is the life and we're going to discuss the Kura of the banishkai because I was very surprised to learn that I bought one of these forums that speak about the Kirby sadikim and one of my favorites it mentions the benesh it says is buried in her house and not only that there was a picture of his cover on her hazism so let me tell you what's so interesting about that okay so it goes like this on a Sunday okay so it goes like this on a Sunday the fifth day of yellow 5679 1909 did not live in Flatbush he did not live in Muncie he lived in bovill in Iraq and he lived in um he's called and he traveled to the Thomas who's not buried in Earth Israel he's buried in a village the village of kipli it's a small town on the Euphrates river and small town on the Euphrates river and just to position it so you know what exactly what I'm talking about it's between najaf and al-hila so that just you know it gives you a more exact uh location if you if you wanted to know exactly where the camera was now it took him 17 hours to travel from Baghdad to the camera Navi and he took the fastest way that was available back then which was not Mercedes not uh Lexus but an ox Dron wagon okay it was a 17-hour journey
