This Torah class is brought to you by TorahAnytime.com. One of the most important middos, avodos by Yid, is to be compassionate, to be a rachum, to be mizdameh l'Kono. Like the Eibishter, mahu rachum, af atah rachum; mahu chanun, af atah chanun. Seems to be a difference between rachum and chanun. What's the difference between rachum and chanun? Rachmanus, chanun. So there's a lot to talk. I want to begin with something which I've thought about for a very long time. A ha'arah, something that, in English they say, I contemplated for quite a while. Yidden in Tchunah, in Tchunah, are rachmanim, they're baishonim, gomlei chasadim. It's the teva, the middos of a Yid. Yet, we live day to day and we get, so to speak... Question marks. This happens, that happens. What is it that blindsides us? That because of this, our true inner selves of who we are as rachmanim and baishanim and gomlei chasadim becomes covered. What is it? Thought about it for a very long time. People have tremendous rachmanus. They could hear a tragedy, and they're moved by it. But after that, and before that, in situations which are not that, we all come into daily occurrences where we think to ourselves, taka with such big rachmanim, such big baishanim. Yes, avada there's a lot of chesed, no question about it. But even the way we react to others, is it taka with so much compassion? Yiddishe rachamim, misdameh l'Konei, Ribono Shel Olam is kulei rachamim. So what is it that we're missing that doesn't give us, tzai mamish, kulei chesed and kulei rachamim? What is it? And we could talk for a very long time about this topic. And farshteytzach, my intentions is not to minimize the Yitzch Greiskeit. Definitely not that. My kavana today is to give us an understanding, havanah, how we could grow in this area, to be the most rachum that we could be and the most chanun, the most gomel chasadim. And I think that there's two things that stand out in my mind as a reason of what blocks our tremendous middas harachmanus. And the first thing is, when we look at the other person, farshteytzach, if he has a tremendous tragedia, okay, our rachmanus comes through. But on a daily basis, we look at the person and we're dan him, Eh, there is the ervas. He did this. We lack the chashivus. The dan es kol adam l'kaf zechus, and that blocks.

It blocks the ability to be a rachum. It blocks it. We look at people, we don't see the person, and midanim l'kaf zechus. But I also think that we don't see fully and comprehend fully the person's matziv to its completion. These are not my words, rabbeisai. The Alter from Kelm speaks a lot about this nekudah. And of course, we'll do it through the parsha, through farshtein a bissel the parsha. You know, if you take a look at the pesukim in this week's parsha, we have the daled leshonos of geulah: Vachein emor livnei Yisrael, Ani Hashem. V'hotzeisi eschem mitachas sivlos Mitzrayim, v'hitzalti eschem me'avodasam, v'ga'alti eschem bizroa netuyah uvishfatim gedolim, v'lakachti. Daled leshonos of geulah. So if the Torah tells us that four leshonos of geulah are going to take place, so why does the Torah finish, the Ribbono Shel Olam finishes with the message, V'yadatem ki Ani Hashem Elokeichem, hamotzi eschem mitachas sivlos Mitzrayim. The Ribbono Shel Olam said more. He said, V'hotzeisi eschem mitachas sivlos Mitzrayim, which was the first thing, v'hitzalti eschem me'avodasam. V'gaalti אתכם, v'lakachti אתכם, so should have said, וידעתם כי אני ה' אלוקיכם המוציא אתכם מתחת עבדות מצרים. Everything. Right? הוצאתי, ניצלתי — what's הוצאתי? מתחת סבלות מצרים. Aber v'steht, ויצלתי אתכם מעבודתם. וגאלתי אתכם. And then, in the Midrashim, it states that there were four gezeiros, there were four different gezeiros, ikrei gezeiros in Mitzrayim. One, of course, is the bena — the children had to be killed, and then later on the Midrash says that the children were thrown into the Yam, and then there's the avodah kashah. Each one was a gezeirah, arba gezeiros nigzaru al Yisrael, and that's why we have four leshonos geulah, as it states in Medrash. So why is it, וידעתם — you'll know — וידעתם כי אני ה' אלוקיכם המוציא אתכם מתחת סבלות מצרים. Why does that become the thing that stands out? This is my shaylah, some sefer fregt a shaylah. Some sefer fregt, some sefer asks, why is it that the synopsis of Yetzias Mitzrayim is, אני ה', I took you out מתחת סבלות מצרים? I, beisai, lo mefashtein what the word סבלות means. What does it mean? What is sivlos? It's interesting, Moshe Rabbeinu also, Vayeitze el echav, vayar b'sivlosam, also the word sivlosam. Say the told me that Rabbi Ruchem was me'orer the shaylah already by Moshe Rabbeinu. What does b'sivlosam mean? B'sivlosam means, like the Targum says, b'pulchana, in their work. So it כתיבstein ba'avodasam. The pasuk should have said that Vayeitze, as he went, and what did he see? He saw avodasam. What did he see? He saw the hard work, no? Avodah kashah. Why does it switch from avodah to sivlah? In the Teretz, Rabbeinu is a pashut. You know, avodah is what you see in front of you. Sevel is all the suffering that goes into it. Moshe Rabbeinu didn't just see the avodah. Vayar b's...

Sivloisam. Sivloisam includes everything that the person is going through. He suffers. There are hardships and difficulties, and then there's a thing called fashtein, to understand, vos yener geit durch. What is the person going through? The Ribono Shel Olam's gadlus, as Hashem will show you, not from my words, but from the Chasam Sofer vaiter, that the Ribono Shel Olam understood and He identified. Un er farshteht nit, nit no vos tog teglach, megeit a durch. Ober der Ribono Shel Olam hot gezen sivloisam, sivloisam, because the person is going, vos er mutsach. That also by the Ribono Shel Olam is something that He pays attention to. I want to tell you something interesting. Maiseh d'zecheinah, Livracha, was a big crier. He used to cry a lot. Maybe it's in the genes, I don't know. Could be it's in the genes, I would say. It's like, he used to cry. I remember that he cried a lot, especially when... Remember this. So there was one person standing there telling another person. Hey, look. Such a compassionate person, so much compassion. The Baal Hegesh has compassion. So the other person turned around to him and said, Let me tell you what the compassion is based on. When he sees a Rasha shekin geit arayn in a bris milah, he doesn't only see the bris, and he doesn't only see al yom malach habris. What he sees is how much mesiras nefesh, all the difficulty that the parents went through to reach this point. U'meileh, because of this, he cries. You know, when you look at a person, all you see is what you see in front of you. But when you start realizing the whole arum and arum, you start to look and to realize. Vifel mizduchke gegangen, piz mitonge kumen. I want to show you something interesting also. You know, I had to have contact with Chai Lifeline the last few years, kesher. And I heard from them a motto of yesoid, which opened up my eyes. Open up my eyes. Unbelievable. Set of that, that when a family member has cancer, we don't look at it only that this individual has yene machlah. We look at it that the whole family has the machlah. And therefore, when we address the needs, we don't address the needs of the choleh alone, but the whole arum and arum, everybody around. What's the pshat? It's to understand, to verstehen. It's not just what you see in front of you, how it affects and how much difficulty. In yeder matziv vos ligt in dem matziv. I'll tell you a maaseh. Once said a hesped on someone in Queens. Tayere yid, what was the hesped? I said over he had a meiredike ma'alah. His thing, his goal, I don't know, it was his tzvek, that every ...

A kind in Queens should get a bar mitzvah present. That was his thing. A fardarumgein, machin zicher, az yeder Russian kind, Shabbos and Shully should get a bar mitzvah present. So I asked him, what's the pshat? And I said this over by his levaya, said over the maiseh. He said, You have to understand, a bar mitzvah boy, he feels like everybody else, bar mitzvah bacherel. Der Russian kind, not necessarily he's going to have this fancy bar mitzvah like everybody else. Today, I don't know, today it's a little bit different. I don't know, everybody has money, Baruch Hashem. When we were growing up, the Russian kind, what kind of a bar mitzvah could he have already? So in order for him to feel special in shul like the other bar mitzvah boy, he made sure every bar mitzvah boy had an aganza, and the rav would present to him the gift, a present. Reb Zelig Epstein was by this hesped, and he walked over to me and he told me, Thank you for the maiseh. Thank you for the story. This is an unbelievable maiseh. Farshtein, farshtein. To understand. What the person is going through. It's not enough for a person to come and say this, this, this matzav. To understand deep, I want to show you an interesting pasuk, habeisah. Shteit in pasuk in Devarim, Vanitzak el Hashem Elokei avoseinu, vayishma Hashem es koleinu, vayar es anyeinu, ves amoleinu, ves lachatzeinu. It's all the same thing. It's not. Vayishma Hashem es koleinu, vayar es anyeinu, ves amoleinu, ves lachatzeinu. I mean, the Baal HaGadah, the Chazal, they darshen each thing, it's on a separate thing. Vanitzak el Hashem, what is lachatzeinu, what—each thing is a different thing. Vos vil men? Vos vilt der pasuk? When the teretz is, az der Ribono Shel Olam vil zogn klal Yisroel, every part, every piece of yisurim was noticed. Everything, everything, this amoleinu, lachatzeinu, each thing separately. It's gad in chesad, it's four things: Vayishma Hashem es koleinu, vayar es anyeinu, amoleinu, and lachatzeinu. It's all. You look nichlal in the four leshonos of geulah. You look at the Meshech Chochmah, the Meshech Chochmah retzein, that each part of the shibud was a different part of the shibud, and each one needed a different lashon of geulah. But to see that in every part there was a fashtand, there was עמלינו separately, and there was לחצנו separately. I want to tell you over a meiredike medrash, rabosai. I know that the oilem's thinking, Shay, vos redt er? Vaiter, nachamal, hegeshen with compassion. Yeah? It's not my zeit chochmah saying. Let me tell you over a meiredike medrash, and once you hear this medrash, s'alts fashteit. S'alts fashteit. Veystach, Chazal, Moshe Rabbeinu was the goel. Moshe Rabbeinu was the goel. Shevet Levi is where Moshe Rabbeinu came from. Tell me, zug, rabosai, zug. Dos parshah geven a zak greise tzaddik, vos hot gehat chashivus far Bnei Torah. But you should say, you know what Shevet Levi do? Do zitzt, do lernen, do darfst nisht arbeten.

What's take ifshat of it? Shevet Levi didn't work. What's the pshat? So I always understood, az me'z a ben Torah, you don't get drafted. I don't know, maybe. Stam. Al sheveichel. I don't remember. It was before my time. What was the patur of the yeshiva guy? What was it called, the patur for the army? Huh? That's your days in Eretz Yisrael. I'm talking in America. There was a— you see something and had a nusach. All right. So I'm going to... chel Hashem, veitz mitzdatech in yeshiva. Don't get me started. Yeshiva lights, ... to the army, ... Crazy. Such, such... I don't get involved. Aber Rebbe says, what's pshat? Why take? Did pari not be meshabed Shevet Levi? Vos takeh? The taich in that. Huh? Oh, so the teretz is... ... from Yosef, ... chachamim. ... But you think I came here to tell you pshat? It does farshtehch a lein, that the pshat is b'stam Shevet Levi. ... They didn't go to army. ... Oy, vel ich dir gezogn, Rebbe, from the Yaaras Dvash, from ... ... Zogt the Yaaras Dvash. Zogt the Yaaras Dvash. Ya, the Yaaras Vash made it. He saw mitztagninov, who's the goyel. And the Torah says from Shevet Levi. He saw it. Hot er getracht ba zich, der goyel muz zayn a Mitzri, vos er get a chelek in avodah. He had to be that he felt, Imo anochi b'tzaram. So what did he do? He parted them from the arbit. Mimeila mit dem, he couldn't be the goyel. This was a trick, zogt the Yaaras Vash, to make sure that the goyel's only Dovid, because the goyel only was someone who was mishtatef b'tzaar fun Yisroel. Rabbeinu didn't understand. He didn't understand what a Yid could be. Yeitzer lechov. You can lock him up. You can lock him up in the palace, yeah, and it's not gonna help. Why? Because he's gonna go out. He's gonna be, Vloysom, Vloysom. Alef, regnach de kashe: Shevet Levi didn't work, so what's the pshat? Tibrech, dem itale matzah. What do you mean, matzah is the middle of it? Every kid comes home from school with this, and the Torah says, Imo anochi b'tzarah. A shevet Levi, because it didn't work, dafke vayzen, imoi anochi b'tzar. You know, rabosai, I have a whole different understanding to what that means. It doesn't mean that they didn't work and in order they should be imoi anochi tzebrecht. Farkert. Mitzebrecht because they didn't work and they weren't imoi anochi b'tzarah. They went through the shibud. That's how they went through the shibud, with the vayar b'sivlosam, as mit gezen un misoivel. Farkert, and we break shevet Levi to show, farkert, they taka were part of the shibud. It's not that they weren't part of the shibud and imoi anochi b'tzarah. Farkert, they were part of the shibud, because that was their imoi anochi b'tzarah. That's fregt di kashya. K'ulas Mitzrayim, it was so important that the goyel had to be an imoi anochi b'tzarah.

Nu, b'nei Torah, fregt a kasha, l'maaseh. But you can be goyel unless you're mamish imo, anochi mamish, that you were part of the tzarah, part of... Let's take a pshat. Let's just take a pshat. I want to tell you something interesting. There's a loshon of a Medrash. I heard from Zeiden, az Reb Yerucham miKeret. I can't find it in the sifrei Reb Yerucham, but it's haflah, fella, haflah, fella, unbelievable. You ready? Beis l'dachmeisheh is ares, vayav b'sivlosam. But there's one little nusach, a few words in the Medrash, haflah, fella. He went out, and he took off dargoin sheloi, and then he went to work with them, b'sivlosam. What is dargoin? He took off dargoin sheloi. What is dargoin? Vos iz dos? So mefarshim, aleh redden, it's a cape of the malchus. It was his royal cloak. Pshat? Vos de nafka mina, tach upgenumen zayn dargoin? So pashut, he took off his jacket, then he went to work. Az Reb Yerucham getaytsht, kol zman he was wearing the emperor's clothes on his back, royalty, he could not fully put himself... In Yenem's matzav, valester fot, tat tachshene kleider. Loshon of medrash, he took off the dagel, tzoker birchuchim. In order to feel, it needed that he took off the dagel. Stop maises of Chofetz Chaim. I thought it's such a famous maise, but I told it over recently and people said, Wow, maybe the Chofetz Chaim, never heard it before, maybe, I don't know. That's told over. My grandfather said over hundreds of times. Mamash, it was a famous maise. Chofetz Chaim once went collecting for a family that was poor, and there was no money for heating. So he knocked at the door by somebody, vas got a bisl gelt and a nice house, and it was freezing outside. He was collecting for heat. So a Yid, Rebbe kumt aheim, he's a big bal teretz, Rebbe kumt aheim, a glezl tea, kitzur. Chofetz Chaim says no. He says, Aber Rebbe, kumt aheim. He says, Rebbe, shteit bantisekalt. Yeah, that's why I'm asking you for money. Now you understand. I want to be dafka by the door, here. Like this you understand what it means to be cold. In order to comprehend, lentsuf farshtein, Yenem's matzav legamrei, darf men zach arainton in yenem's matzav. You have to be able to see fully the entire matzah. I want to tell you over Chasam Sofer. I made it in Chasam Sofer. Chasam Sofer shtalt zich af a pasuk. ... ראה ראיתי את עני עמי אשר במצרים. כי ידעתי את מכאוביו. That's the pasuk, yeah? I saw, ראה ראיתי את עני. I see צעקתם מפני נוגשיו. כי ידעתי את מכאוביו. So the Chasam Sofer says there's a lot of things here. ראה ראיתי את עני, and then I saw, שמעתי צעקתם מפני נוגשיו, and vayter again, כי ידעתי את מכאוביו. You see that there's a repetition of the same thing over again and over. Get, get out of it. Shame, shtei, כי ידעתי את מכאוביו, finished with כי ראה ראיתי את עני. ... So the Chasam Sofer, a hafla'ah, mamash hafla'ah. כי ראה ראיתי את עני עמי. I see how weak they are.

Yeshva. Mit dem in retten, they were so weak. They were so weak in Mitzrayim. It's oni ami b'Mitzrayim. And I also see, Ki shamati es tza'akas Bnei Yisrael. What are they screaming about? It's tut vei. That's all. Why didn't they scream, Ribono Shel Olam, give us dinim here. I'm gonna give us Torah, give us mitzvahs. Why shreit men, shreit ai? It's tut vei. It's a schwer arbeit. It's hard work. Zogt der Chasam Sofer, der Ribono Shel Olam will zogen, Ich hob's als gehet, and af al pi kein, va'eired l'hatzilo, chavas, ki yadati es machovov. I see his pain. What do I mean, I see his pain? I see his pain that it's his matziv. Ve'ein adam nitfas al tza'aro. A person, mit אפה שטיין the matziv וואס דער מענטש איז in. Ki yadati es machovov means I see where he's holding. Meile, I look over, I say, okay, good, and this, and this. I bechfashteh, ki yadati, ich farshteh וואס דער מענטש גייט דורך. Yirah Beisai, the Ribono Shel Olam judges. Mah hu rachum, Avatar mah hu chanun, He's judging the mensch, וואס ער גייט דורך. And kol zman you don't see the full picture, it's very hard to judge people. Why? I'll give you a mashal. I've came across a story from the Alter from Kelm, a hafla'ah, a hafla'ah. He says a story, a maaseh in Tzichachmim musar. He says he went to a simcha, and someone told him, Ah, ich zeh az der rebbe, whatever he called him, I see that you're starting to walk again. Ah. So he says at that moment, he learned a tremendous lesson. Chabad mussar. Everything that he heard, shegevan a shmues from that, vayter gevan a shmues from that, yeah? My zeide told me over that by Rav Naftali, wherever he walked, wherever he heard, shegleich gevan a shmues by him. You earned two good sheinem ma'ases. We'll tell two sheinem ma'ases. Zeide, די איביגער געזאגט, az imetz איז צוגעגאנגען צו ר' נפתלי, mit gevolt kitzlen, he wanted to chap him a little bit. Why? I'll tell you, in a lomdus and everything he did, mit a gantze lomdus. That was a tzugegangene velt, and a little bit of a geshmak. He said that that's called a chassidishe... okay, so... So he couldn't. Az R' Naftali felt azoi kvetchen, if he had to zach, couldn't take it. So he walked over to R' Naftali and he said, Rebbe, ich hob a shaylah, a chakirah. What's the chakirah? A macht kapores mit a hon, un der hon... The chicken, a macht on in siddur. What do you do? Vos tut men? So, Avtali, tracht am a little. The bochurn stam are gemacht, right? So he says, Rebbe, vos klarst az eyfel sheilos, mir get a vish un mir get vayter. Avtali says, hafla. So a mussar shmues of teshuva for Yom Kippur. He got up in the middle of yeshiva and he said a shmues. He learned that yesod. I'm sorry, it's in English. If the chicken makes dirty, give a wipe and go on. He says he learned a tremendous mussar shmues from them. Teshuva, get men a vish, and mir get vayter. Zei, they told me another maise. See, the olam hot lib mehr the maises than my Torah. I agree with you, my Torah is not that good. But the maises are from zeiden, from the daily Yisrael. Zei told me that Rav Naftali once ate in a restaurant, and he came back with a gantze shmues. Avtali tracht forgotten. Yeshiva, Avtali tracht. What happened?

He went, he ate at a restaurant, and he came back. Rabosai, ... in hashmues. ... the shmues. He said he learned a tremendous lesson in life. Wants the oilam to learn this lesson. What's the lesson? He says he ate the food. It was no different than the one he ate at home. Nefsha d'ba'ei machbeses. So I don't know, maybe I'm telling you, a tzaddik, he didn't know the difference between a shtickel chicken and a sushi. I don't know. How about ...? It was the same. So the gezagt, ... another shaila. Oy, as if the food in the house is as good as the restaurant. ... The ... likt afn rechta zayt, the ... lefta likt a zayt, and the napkin is folded under. ... Nechmad le'einayim. It's all in the packaging. There's elbe foods, there's elbe essen, there's elbe... And this was the Rav Tolling's shmues. My zeide said that wasn't Rav Tolling's mahalach. Whenever they saw, he went against the shmues, yeah? So here's a maaseh, ... maaseh. So someone walked over to the Alter from Kelm, and he says to him, You're going, you're walking good, geist good. He says, He learned from this ... shmues. He wrote it, the ... shmues. That's how it starts. That's how the... This is the beginning of a shmuz. ... Atah holeich v'tov, ... Another one says, ... No, against the shmuz. What was the shmuz? Sagt der Azei. The derech ha'olam is, and I mentioned, when a person hears somebody is sick, oh, he gets moved, starts crying, ... Then the minute that they hear that he's feeling a little bit better, ... forget about it, Baruch Hashem, ... It's taka ... The main takke is still not difficulty. You don't think that there still needs a lot of work to get his refuah here. He's still not shari b'tzar. He's still not healthy. He still didn't go back l'eisana, you hear? Listen to... I say, listen, listen, listen to our malach, the ... the cook for ... Sagt der a mensch, he sees what's in front of him, he's very sick. Yeah, but what about—he's not very sick. But he's still going through difficulty. It's still not easy. Sagt ... mitos v'shteit. By Rivka it states, she went lishov mayim. Far vos? Not to be matriach, not avde Eliezer, and not Eliezer, you hear? Tell me, how much is it to help about a shiva for chveis, a little drawing water? What is it? Vos is it? And if she didn't do this... He says, look what would happen. She would never would have become the wife of Yankiv and the eim of Klal Yisrael. Abisel nosei b'ol. A kleine keit. It's difficult for him. She was oimen on that little bit difficulty. It's difficult. It's a kleinekeit. I read you the words of the Alter: Eischa nosei b'ol, kol d'hu, mazeh, u'mikol shekein k'shelo yitzta'er b'tzaar zulas, yoser mikol d'chas v'shalom. This is when you care about somebody, to make sure he has even the little bit, it shouldn't be difficult for him. What happens if it's the other way around? He's not b'tzaar on the little bit that's difficult for the other person. Ei kama kol d'hu yesh b'zeh, u'v'chol kol d'hu kama hefsed, v'zeh mavil. V'amarti lo achar kach. This is what says the Alter. I told this person, Rei koach hamusar b'shaa kalah, kama hirvachta l'chol yemei chayecha. I gave you something that mamish, a present for the rest of your life. Rabosai, let me end with this, only because of time. There's a—

The maise that I always think about for Reb Chaim Shmulevitz, peledige maise. Mitatzelt az Reb Chaim had gehert, simchas avek. Itzach tzuveint, he cried, he felt bad for him. A few minutes later, he stopped, eh. Then it's nachah, matzach tzuveit. Another few minutes passed by, stopped, eh. And then again, a dritte mol tzuveit. So he asked Reb Chaim, what is the three times tzuvein? What is the... Sogt an onfang, hob ich getracht vegn dem, the niftar, nebach. And then I got over, you know, okay, get the gedaned and this and that. Then I started thinking to myself, almona. Nachah matzuveit. Then when I got over that, I started thinking to myself, kinder. Nachah matzuveit. The wife separately, then later the children. Reb Chaim, as all other gedolei Yisroel, they look at the full picture of the person, what he's going through. We look at a person, okay, you know, see, he's healthy, he's fine, he's coming, he's sitting. Do we listen and try to understand efshar the shverekeit in business? Maybe as a shverkeit at home. It has to be an earth-shattering problem for us to have rachmanus on him? No, because yidn have rachmanus. Problem is we don't think. We're not oymed. We think, okay, he's doing okay. Volt men getracht, ki agatias machayev. To understand fully, to understand not stam what, but sivlos, how much the person is suffering. That's called nosei b'ol im chaveiro. Nosei b'ol im chaveiro means to see the entire picture. You have the mensh's zayne zachin, zayne problems, zayne zachin. A good word, a word of chizuk, a mensh darf zayn kind, pizmes kumt em avek a choles zayn, that till then, un a mensh is nisht kein... you can't be mechazek him with a good word. A person has to learn to see the entire picture, and everyone is sovel. Ein lechash adam she'ein lo yisurim. If you start realizing people in this light, farkert, the rachmanus is on everyone, the goymlei chasadim, a good word. You have no idea what a good word could do to a person. One good word, avod from chizuk, avod from simcha, doesn't have to be deathly ill for us to take notice, as a rachmanus of him. The dust is a chelek from the noseh b'ol im chaveiro, noseh b'ol im chaveiro. And if you just give me a half a second, rabosai, I want to leave you with a... And I really would love people to ask others this shaila. If Moshe Rabbeinu would have went to another gadol, so to speak, okay, and asked, so gevolt, kedai what he did. I want to know, what did Moshe Rabbeinu to'ulf? He came there, he started schlepping with them, yeah? Tell me, he was able to do much for them? I want to know, anybody have any mahalach? What was it? Sit there and schlep with them, and the next day he went out, tzachatzaig mit the Mitzri, he had to run away. Another person makes a cheshbon: stay in palatz, stay in the palace.
