Yom Kippur - A tiny big thing

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in The Parsha In My Life - Rabbi Reuven Wolf’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

they say the story of a 98 year old yemenite yet now the yemenites were renowned for their longevity that incredible genes and their lifestyle this 98 year old yemenite yields comes to a doctor the doctor asks him what's your secret to your longevity tell me what do you do what do you eat what's your regimen and he says I golf every morning and I have a little schnapps come on the doctor says it's got to be your genes he says well my father's 120. the doctor says no I don't believe it he says yeah the doctor says he golfed with you this morning he says no this morning he actually got married Dr says what do you mean he got married that's ridiculous he says he agrees with his parents were putting pressure 120 is the amount of years that Rabbi Akiva the legendary comforter of Claudius roll lived to be 120 and his yard site is actually on Yom Kippur 135 years after the Common Era abekiva ended his life but Shameless at 120. and tonight I want to share with you one of the enduring empowering a remarkable lessons of Rabbi Akiva that completely trailblazed the entire institution of chuva well let's start for a moment from the beginning we know that Gomorrah tells us that these days between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are referred to in absukum as dirshu Hashem translated as seek out God he will be found and call out to him as he is near now at face value these words this compilation would seem to be redundant a little bit repetitive in fact the entire chuba process at times seems repetitive we know rough side you're going it's brought down he would engage in chuva every single day
