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.

The Chida first of all, was mana that to start a new Chumash. Chumash of Bamidbar. The Chida says a sparkling gematria right away on the first pasuk. Says Vayedaber Hashem el Moshe bamidbar Sinai and says the Chida, "Bamidbar Sinai is big matria 73 78, exactly."
