What’s said in this shiur

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

250 very khashuvah people, Kriah Mayed Anshei Shein, Dathan and Aviram, it was a a holocaust of humanity. And we're not talking about regular people over here. We're not talking about regular people at all. You know, to give you a little flavor before you learn Parshas a little flavor before you learn Parshas Korach and say, "Well, these were villains." The Zohar says that last of all, Korach Korah will come back. And he says a remez, "Tzaddik Katamar Yifrach." The righteous will flourish like a a date palm. And the safe tables of "Tzaddik Katamar Yifrach" is Tzaddik is kuf, Katamar is reish, and Yifrach is ches. It's Korach. They say over from the Heilige Yismach Moshe we're talking about now. Here we're talking about people that we can't imagine their greatness. They say over from the Heilige Yismach Moshe that he said that he knows again See, we're talking about different people, people that we can't even imagine. The Yismach Moshe says that he knows that he's here in this world the third time. This is his third gilgul. This is his third gilgul. And in his first gilgul, he lived in the midbar. So, the talmidim asked him, "So, you were by the machlokes of Korach and Moshe? He said, yes. So, they asked him, "Whose side were you on?" So, he said, "I didn't take sides." So, they asked him incredulously, So, they asked him incredulously, "You didn't take Moshe up on his side?" And he said, "The only way you could ask that question is because you never met Korach." So, you have to understand that there are things over here that are way beyond our understanding. Korach was minuy sayhel aron. He was as close as you could get to God.
