all right everyone welcome thank you for joining we are going to learn something really special Paras Bak this week is the total portion of bolock and bolock was a wicked man who wanted to curse the Jew not bolock bolock hired billum and they wanted to both together curse the Jewish people and God flipped those curses into blessings what's really pertinent and relatable to us is that all the information and the prophecies about mashiach is in this Torah portion which we discussed many times all the way in the end of Bam's um um interaction with bolock bolock was a king of Moab who hired bam to curse the Jewish people because he saw the Jewish people coming at him as a threat so he realized that he needs a spiritual power to take them down that the strength of the Jewish people was their connection to God so he needed a counter force a spiritual dark force that can fight them spiritually and that's how he can take them down physically as well he hired billum and billum came and tried to curse but the curses ended up coming out of his mouth as the greatest blessings all the way in the end when bolok is very angry at billum and he tells him what do you've done I asked you to curse my enemies and you bless them and he said go back home bam says to him just one moment I have a couple more things to tell you so he goes and he downloads the last download
