So now that everybody has their food, we can start. Beautiful question. Okay. So we have what a para mash maybe the highlight in some ways in the storyline fashion of the entire Torah. This dramatic confrontation between Yuda and Ysef. A confrontation that was building up already. two from the time that we read already. two from the time that we read where you die is the one to advocate for the sale of Y. The endangerment the spiritual endangerment of Ysef was wrought by the hands of Yuda and Ysef goes to Mitim and somehow manages. I mean Mitim is whatever impression you have of Vegas, Mit was 10 times worse than it. It was the epitome of evil, of immorality, of the epitome of evil, of immorality, of everything you could, all the terrible things. That's what was happening. As a matter of fact, when the Torah wanted to describe what you shouldn't be, it said, "If you want to know how your morality should not look, don't do like that's the example of what you shouldn't do." So Ysef is in this place and he manages to not only survive but retain his spirituality on such a high level and is spirituality on such a high level and is able to uh become physically excel and spiritually excel and protect himself and guard himself. When the brothers assumed when they came to Mitim and they said, "Well, we sold him to Mitim, he's probably somewhere here, the first place they looked was in the places of harlotry because they said there is nowhere else that someone with his beauty and his capabilities and his talents would end up in such a place away from the protection of Abba and his brothers. Where would such a slave end
