Welcome back everyone to our weekly show on the parashah with the parush of the Zera Shimshon. Thanks for all all of you being patient and coming back this week. This week's parashah, we're going to do parashat parashat Balak. I know that we just read parashat Balak, but we missed a few weeks and parashat Balak is so intense. I felt this was a message that we really needed, so we'll use parashat Balak today. very very special night to learn Torah in his hood. And obviously it is for sure dedicated in the and the merit of the Zera Shimshon himself. May his the hood be a for all of us those that are that are single may grant them a good or a man can you hear that song? Those that need children should give them children and those that need success of the Zera Shimshon also a of the Zera Shimshon also a see Ben Ezra. Okay. So here is a very interesting question on the parashah this week. So Bill I'm comes to curse the Jews. He is hired by Balak you shall be from to come and curse the Jews.

Those of you that listened to my lecture this past Shabbat, we had a really new twist on really what was but Bil'am's problem. Here
