Okay. I'd like to share with the kahal kadosh some beautiful insights by the great Rabbi Hayyim Palachi, alav shalom, that discusses very powerful things connected to the celebration of a Shavuot. Now, right here. Let me go perhaps Let me go perhaps through the way that this is written in his sefer Mo'ed Kol Hai to have a better understanding of the message. So, it says the following. Erev Shavuot, meaning to say tomorrow, you can do it today also if you ask me. Tomorrow, there is a great concept of giving tzedakah, concept of giving tzedakah, but giving tzedakah with a formula. And this formula is fascinating. Why? Because you'll be surprised at the power of the tzedakah given in honor of Shavuot. Now, just to clarify this, the recipients of this sadaka is not needy people. is not needy people. It's not to help a bride. That's a different mitzvah called hachnasat kallah. This particular sadaka, so to speak, goes to benei Torah, talmidei chachamim, that they learn Torah all day. In other words, to the kollel. It's not a kollel fundraising, but that is the recipient of this extra charity. Now, how much you should give in this Now, how much you should give in this charity? So, the Rabbi Chaim Palachi says, Erev Shavuot, you separate coins or bills connected to the number 91. Now, what's so special about this number? I know the Kabbalah knows that 91 is the number of pote'ach et yadcha, the famous verse that we say, pote'ach et yadcha, pote'ach et yadcha, if you take the first letter of these words, 80 + 1 + 10, that equals 91, which is the Kabbalistic combination of two names of Hashem's name. One is Yud Kay Vav Kay, and the other one is Adonai. 26 + 65 = 91. So far, so good? Beautiful. How much it should be?
