0:00This Torah class is brought to you by Torahanytime.com Today in the United States and across much of the world Life expectancy is more than double what it was just a century ago It is no longer unusual to find children in their 60s and 70s Sometimes approaching 80, caring for parents nearing a hundred Science attributes this dramatic rise to improved hygiene, better nutrition, safer living conditions Remarkable medical advances But the question is why did Hashem choose now in our generation to grant humanity such unprecedented longevity? Why did a college worker reveal these medical breakthroughs specifically in our time? So let me share with you a beautiful insight from which time on Zatah We know that Ace of Excelled in the midst of Kibbid-Av in the most extraordinary way The message tells us that the holy towner of Shimmigamblil said No one honored their parents the way I honored my parents

1:03Yet I discovered that Ace of honored his parents even more than I did He said, I served my parents in ordinary clothes And I saved my finest garments from when I went outside Ace of the opposite, he wore simple clothes on the street and reserved his most elegant garments for when he served his father Ace of was intensely zealous in the midst of Kibbid-Av Even Yakov Avinu testified that Ace of never once caused their father Yitzhak any pain So why was Ace of so vigilant in this midst of? So the morale explains that Ace of was drawn to midstvists that aligned with human logic, with human intellect Kibbid-Av is a midstvist that resonates deeply with Seychelles Parents bring a child into this world, they nurture him, they protect him It just makes sense to honor them With this, if Steinman offered an extraordinary idea As we approach the end of days, as the world moves closer to the era of Mashiach

2:06The long, spiritual struggle with Ace of reaches its climax Ace of unique strength in Kibbid-Av must be counterbalanced by Kali's role Therefore, Hashem has extended human life Long Jeopardy is not merely biological, it is spiritual Hashem has given us more years, more generations, and more opportunities to fulfill the midst of Kibbid-Av In a way that rivals and ultimately surpasses Ace of greatness And as parents age, the challenge of this midst will grow exponentially Patients and sacrifice, dignity and dedication are tested on the highest level And indeed, doctors and nurses and hospitals across the world testify that no one cares for their elderly parents with such devotion, with sensitivity and respect that the Jewish families do Kali Israel is rising to the challenge As an example, my father, Oliver Shalom, was in and out of the hospital for over six months before he passed away

3:09There was never a moment when he was left alone 24-7 family members were always there, often two or three at a time Other patients, non-Jewish, rarely had any visitors The hospital staff marveled at the extraordinary devotion they witnessed And this is not unique to our family This takes place in Jewish families across the world Reshtimon himself tragically was deprived of the opportunity to fulfill the midst of Kibbid-Av aimfully His parents were tragically murdered in the war and he alone survived Once he was invited to speak about Kibbid-Av at a gathering in Manabraq and he refused When pressed, he said, I remember when I was ten years old, my mother once prepared food for me and refused to eat it So I do not feel that I'm worthy to speak about this midst, unbelievable We can only imagine the nachos his parents feel now in the oil of mamas At the age of 104, his pure nashama returned to its creator

4:13A journey he had prepared for his entire life And as will, he left instructions reflecting his staggering humility Noah spade them, Noah newspaper articles, no public announcements Ten people are not for the lavaya He wrote, do not call me a Jewish amine, let's not be embarrassed in the oil of mamas Wow, the good oil and we were so eager to see from the previous generation So Hashem left in life so we can live higher Every extra year is another chance to honor parents, to deepen our moonah, to refine our midoes, to add toyramits with And as Kai Israel rises spiritually, we are quietly preparing the world for Mishiyach Made conspirately in our days And now, we know, have a wonderful day And once another Torah class brought to you by Torahanytime.com
