    Someone asked you at the end of shiur last friday on  the rashi sicha . Didn't hashem know moshes tanno and u said there is hashems look and our look. I was thinking about it and i think its a very deep and real idea.
     And thats what midas hadin is . Midas hadin isn't strictness its hashem seeing what really happened vs midas harachamim is empathy look at it from us. 
    Midas hadin is reality, hashem sees a davar ruchni sinning. Midas harachamim is but we dont see a that we see a human sinning.

    Love the sheer today!!!! Thank you so much 😀✅👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻my favorite time of the day - listening to Rabbi YY. 
    I don't know very much, no formal training. No Hebrew. Learning so many words & terms & Torah stories. Sometimes I listen to a sheer 5-6 times to learn everything  

    I send my favorite YY sheers to my local Savannah Georgia Chabad Rabbi Refson & his wife Zelly. They thank me.

    I am helping Zelly start the womens study group. She is teaching us the Chabad course on Joy. 

    Last week at Rabbi's study group for adults he told us a story: the story of the son of the chicken farmer who went wild like a chicken at a Fabrenga of the Ulter Rabbi. My eyes 👀 grew wide and I delighted in knowing where my rabbi found out about that story!!!

    How about straightening books in background? I keep noticing & want to fix this 💃.....I straighten other peoples pictures too 😆

    Total fan and paying supporter of Rabbi YY ....changing my reality one sheer at a time 😍

    Thank you for all of your lessons. 
    we need you & your message. 
    you are our teacher. 

    Thankfully, Elaine Nibley

    Seeing the positive side

    of a person land not judging them like what you say Moshe did with Korach and the others is what we are supposed to do, So why is it that so many people don't do that? But GD says in this case that Korach and the others didn't deserve this type of empathy So what is it that we are supposed to do? I'm thinking that we humans are not supposed to judge, but GD Really knows, so we have to defer to HIM..

    Moshe continues to

    argue/question GD in their irelationship about HIS behavior/action. And GD listens and "accepts" Moshe's comments.. Like friends.

      Yes, Sara. And Hashem is also "friends" with Avraham Avinu with whom He also continues to debate a proposed punishment

    Kovach abd Yisro BOTH said Moshe assuming too much

    Notice that Yisro criticized Moshe for aggregating to himself all judicial power. Similarly, Korach and his group criticized Moshe fir aggregating to himself (and his brother) all monarchy and legislative power as well as all priestly power. 

    Yet, Korach was punishec but Yisro was not. In fact Moahe accepted Yisro's criticism amd implemented his suggestion.

      Yisro did. Or challenge moshe authority 

      this was a matter of how best to lead 

      through delegation 

      korach was challenging the very position itself
