welcome to episode three of our betal
0:09
Lei series we're now in unit three of
0:10
the betal Lei we continues what we said
0:13
previously that the fear itself creates
0:16
a problem and he quotes a pasuk in where
0:19
God tells y don't be afraid the enemies
0:22
are around you because the fear is going
0:24
to cause you to become broken similarly
0:26
he brings a story in where one groaned
0:31
and the other one said you're groaning
0:32
you want to bring problems upon yourself
0:35
like the
0:36
says I fear to fear the yet It Came Upon
0:40
me and therefore the says that before
0:44
soldiers went to war there's a negative
0:47
Commandment that
0:49
says do not be afraid of them it's
0:53
unbelievable that's a sin Thou shalt not
0:56
fear the enemy and why is that says the
0:59
bet
1:00
because our success at War comes from
1:03
our alliance on hasem as we
1:06
know some go with with with chariots and
1:09
with with
1:10
horses we win our Wars B by mentioning
1:14
the name of God the way we win our Wars
1:16
is with Reliance on Hashem and the way
1:19
we lose our Wars is with fear and
1:21
therefore God warns
1:23
us and that's why when a soldiers afraid
1:26
we send them back cuz he's now in danger
1:30
go to war if it's dangerous for you if
1:32
you're not going to make it so a person
1:34
goes to war and the success depends on
1:37
we're not soldiers so does this Mitzvah
1:39
not apply to us interestingly enough
1:44
R lists this l in his list of 613 and
1:49
does not apply it only to war he says
1:52
anytime a person is in a challenge situ
1:55
challenging situation he has to believe
1:57
that hashem's salvation is closer than
2:00
the problem and if it's bad news from a
2:04
doctor from a lawyer from a sh or
2:06
whatever it is our immediate reaction
2:08
has to be
2:10
yes I'm not afraid of the
2:13
situation could pull me out so this is a
2:17
tremendous concept that we have
2:19
opportunities daily because there isn't
2:21
a day that goes by without some kind of
2:24
challenge it could be a lady trying to
2:27
make a cake and she's missing some
2:28
ingredients it could be looking for
2:31
parking it could be doing homework with
2:33
your children there's a lot of things
2:35
that are challenging and rather than
2:37
just say how am I going to get through
2:39
this we have the answer you turn your
2:42
eyes up to Hashem and say Hashem I'm
2:44
relying on you I'm counting on you I
2:47
know you're the only one that can take
2:49
me out of this problem and save me
2:51
that's the power of be and again we have
2:54
to put this in our heads this is not an
2:56
option it's not a nice thing to do if
2:59
I'm in the mood it's a mitvah it's no
3:03
different than any one of the 613 and
3:05
it's a negative commandment people AR
3:06
going to look at that I'm afraid it's I
3:08
just shaved with a razor I just ate
3:11
unkosher uh meat it's
3:14
a Thou shalt not fear we will continue
3:18
working on this and reach that level of
3:21
not having any fear have a wonderful
3:24
