Do you recognize the power of understanding Jewish history and how it shapes our faith today? We'll unveil the patterns and insights found in studying our forefathers' journeys and the Jewish people's incredible commitment to their faith.

Imagine the potential if we could see our actions leading to specific outcomes and how this could guide our future decisions.

There isn't a cheaper education around, nor a more accessible and galvanizing tutor in the area.

00:00:10.494 --> 00:00:18.806
It is one of the most memorable psukim of this glorious song featured in Parshah's Hazzinu Hour.

00:00:18.806 --> 00:00:48.121
Parshah, you can comprehend the years of the generations and ask thy father and he will relate it to thee as the elders and they will explain it to thee To know history, to know the bygone journeys of our forefathers, for they are not bygone.

00:00:48.121 --> 00:01:24.081
When you study them and you start to understand the great tapestry and the mosaic that is Jewish history, you start to understand the certain patterns that are just glaring and how the Jewish people's commitment to their faith is how Hashem continues to judge us and repiae us, and the Hashqah of Protests is jutting forth that kindness is repaid with kindness and how corruption and deceit is repaid the same thing.

00:01:24.081 --> 00:01:45.034
It is imperative that you know the axiom that, aimee l'Ummad Keesmal, there is no greater teacher than yesterday, for when you see further back, you indeed can see that much further into the future.

00:01:45.034 --> 00:01:49.668
So ask yourself do you know Jewish history?

00:01:49.668 --> 00:01:52.396
Do you know the travels of our people?

00:01:52.396 --> 00:01:53.939
Do you know your Yichas?

00:01:53.939 --> 00:01:56.927
Are you familiar with the Chelnitsky massacre?

00:01:56.927 --> 00:02:00.057
Do you know the stories of the judges?

00:02:00.057 --> 00:02:01.000
Do you know Tanach?

00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:07.120
Do you know the rebuke of the prophets, the basic Jewish history, indeed?

00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:12.807
Or if Pam said that one should have a seder of Jewish history once a week, is that important?

00:02:13.427 --> 00:02:32.807
Zakharyamos olam, binoshinors dorvador, see the patterns and see the outcomes of one's action and see oh, god will never forsake us, no matter what the Akhovchhebel nachlasa, the strong rope that is the house of Jacob.

00:02:32.807 --> 00:02:53.133
And now downsizing in your own life, when you can look back and see which actions led you to which paths and now you are standing here and you're able to look back you will therefore be able to make a different decision in the future, because, aimee l'Ummad Keesmal, there is no greater teacher than yesterday.

00:02:53.133 --> 00:03:04.774
And indeed the Gammar tells us that the definition of a Meshugina, of a crazy person, is somebody who continuously does the same thing and does not change his ways, and he keeps getting the same result.

00:03:04.774 --> 00:03:14.031
So consider this rather cost efficient and accessible session.

00:03:14.031 --> 00:03:16.514
That's your past.

00:03:16.514 --> 00:03:28.235
Attend the great college of Jewish history and look backwards that you can perfect your ways and improve and look forward to a beautiful future.
