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.
The common denominator here is Okay, I hope this stuff works. We have something of a very interesting style sheer tonight. I'm hoping that it'll be my arrows to an incredible month. We'll start with a better half. Baruch atah Adonai Eloheinu melech ha'olam shehakol ni'yah bidvaro. Rosh Chodesh Adar We finish over them. And we enter one of the happiest months of the year. Mishenichnas Adar marbim b'simcha. I'd like to share with you tonight a share that many of the mar'ei mekomot were taken from the sefer Maggid Harakia from Yedidya Ahuv Ben Nafshi Rabbi Daniel Goldstein. Hashem should bless him. Somebody very special in Klal Yisrael, a very close friend of of ours and of mine personally. We should be zocheh tonight with this particular share to get into what this great month in store. Mishenichnas Adar I would like to listen to this. The Gamara tells us Did you hear that? Rebbi Huda the son of Reb Shmuel the son of Shilat Very interesting name, Shilat. If you've ever heard this name before. He said in the name of Rav. Amazing. What did he say? The same way that when the month of Av begins we are mema'et we lessen our happiness and joy So too, in the same measure that when Adar begins the month of Adar ushers us to make much more our joy and simcha of the coming month. Tonight is the night of Rosh Chodesh Adar. Tonight is the night that we're marbin b'simcha. And this simcha is going to last us an entire month. And it's also going to be the entry to the month of Nissan which is a month of geulah. Without the simcha you can't come to a geulah. Mishnichnas Adar, marbin b'simcha. Now, who was the rabbi that said this? Now, this is an interesting idea. Not too often do we actually look into
