What’s said in this shiur

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

could you imagine somebody bends over and leans in and they whisper into your ear the greatest secret of all history would you be hanging on every single word wouldn't you ask them to repeat it once or twice just to make sure that you got all the details one of the greatest rabbis that ever lived the great rebbi akiva rabbansha israel he gets up in front of his generation and he announces i'm about to tell you the greatest secret of history i'm about to tell you who is mashiach and at that moment with our imagination we could think that probably the the whole generation just kind of leaned in for a minute and said yeah rabbi we've been waiting for this who is mashiach and the great rebbi akiva and let's get clarity rebbe akiva was the one that moshed asked god why did you give the torah through me you should have given it through him rabbi akiva was arguably maybe one of the greatest rabbis to ever live he says i'm about to tell you the secret of old time do you know who mashiach is this man he's mashiach and to prove that he meant it rabbi akiva would go and carry the towel of this man bar kochba back and forth to the mcvent of the wash house because he's a melee and even though reby akiva is the godola door but he's a king and this is the way you serve a king wow so rabbi what happened rabby akiva told us who mashiach is where is the redemption why didn't the happen in the days of rabbi akiva says the gemara things took place and things went wrong and later on this man bark oh the slated mashiach he ended up dying and there was no redemption now if there's anyone out there that's listening to this speech
