Yoel GoldGUEST
So a couple of years ago, I released a Selichos film, and in preparation for the Selichos film, I went around on the streets in Pico, and I stopped random people with a mic and camera in hand, and I told them, I said, "Tell me what emotion comes up for you when you hear the words Rosh Hashanah." Now, the top three answers we received was dread, guilt, and nothing.
Yoel GoldGUEST
People didn't feel anything positive about Rosh Hashanah.
Yoel GoldGUEST
Some said awe, some said teshuva.
22 MINS LATER
Yoel GoldGUEST
You're already living your purpose.
Yoel GoldGUEST
You just don't know it, because we lack perspective.
Yoel GoldGUEST
Tonight, as we come to Selichos, we say, "Like paupers, we're knocking on your door." You know what a pauper is? Not a guy who ha- who has an empty bank account.
Yoel GoldGUEST
That's not a pauper.
Yoel GoldGUEST
Gemara says, "A pauper, a poor person is ein ani ela b'daas." A poor person is somebody who lacks perspective.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
I can already tell you it's gonna be interesting.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
And I heard there's two chazzanim coming for the Selichot.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
With all due respect to the music and the Selichot, one million shows that they will make will not be equal to one hour that we spoke here already.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
One million shows on a s- on a sca- on a scale will not be equal to one hour of Torah.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
Hafez Chaim say one hour of Torah is sixty thousand mitzvot.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
If you do the Selichot mamash with a broken heart, that's a different story.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
Mamash with a broken heart, then you have mitzvah of Teshuvah.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
"Modoh veyodea oseh v'yorucham, chataiti, aviti, pesha'ti." Most people, they come to Selichot for the beautiful melodies.
Zev CohenHOST
He's a Roya.
Zev CohenHOST
We said it this morning in Slichos.
Zev CohenHOST
And HaKadosh Baruch Hu is a Doidi.
Zev CohenHOST
He's my beloved.
Noa LeviHOST
Finally, a moment of communal reflection as Rosh Hashanah approaches.
Noa LeviHOST
Over 50,000 people participated in central Selichot prayers at the Western Wall in Jerusalem last night.
Noa LeviHOST
Since the beginning of the month of Elul, the Western Wall has welcomed approximately one million worshippers for these repentance prayers.
Noa LeviHOST
I'm Noah Levi, thank you for listening to Israel Today ongoing war report.
Noa LeviHOST
As the Jewish New Year approaches, a significant spiritual gathering took place.
Noa LeviHOST
Over 50,000 people participated in the central Selichot prayers at the Western Wall in Jerusalem on the eve of Rosh Hashanah.
Noa LeviHOST
Since the beginning of the month of Elal, approximately one million worshippers have visited the Western Wall for these penitential prayers.
Noa LeviHOST
I'm Noah Levi, thank you for listening to Israel Today ongoing war report.
David SteinGUEST
I want to share a sicha that has been going around, that Rav Moshe Lichtenstein delivered on Motzei Shabbos last week, this past week, at Yishrat HaArikyum, Nekosh.
David SteinGUEST
in which really his launching point is Selichot.
David SteinGUEST
And I'll share kind of two thoughts from his talk.
David SteinGUEST
He notes that every single day of Selichot, we have a different pizmon each day, there's a different combination of Selichot, different mizmorim.
David SteinGUEST
Okay, great.
David SteinGUEST
Every single day, Selichot started with the same opening sentence.
David SteinGUEST
Hashem, you are righteous and we are shame-faced.
David SteinGUEST
And Rav Lechon Zin says, it's really a strange way to open tzlichot.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
Like every year.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
Every year we do this event before, uh, Yom Kippur with Selichot after that.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
Tov.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
Uh, what else do I have to announce? I always forget.
42 MINS LATER
Yosef MizrachiHOST
I'm now sh-observing Shabbat.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
Admit, not hiding.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
It's written, we say in Selichot, "mechase pesha'ad lo yatzlich umode ve'ozev yerucham." Someone who cover the sin, cover his sins will not succeed.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
But someone who admits and leave the sin will have the mercy.
Sammy SakaHOST
Of 10, it's a gathering.
Sammy SakaHOST
And that's why certain parts during Selichot, we don't say unless we have 10 people.
Sammy SakaHOST
Here we're talking about three.
Sammy SakaHOST
Three isn't a poor number because with three people, we can recite when we do the Zimun for B'kat HaMazon.
Efrem GoldbergHOST
But this past Motza'ei Shabbos, I wasn't here with you.
Efrem GoldbergHOST
I was in Yerushalayim, Ir HaKodesh, to start Selichos.
Efrem GoldbergHOST
And, uh, I-- this Chutz, I was, uh, I was davening in a very holy place overlooking the holiest place there is.
Efrem GoldbergHOST
And the Bat Rila led a beautiful, beautiful Selichos.
Efrem GoldbergHOST
Not what I was used to, not the same.
Efrem GoldbergHOST
Of course, it's hard to be in another place, but a beautiful Selichos.
Efrem GoldbergHOST
And we made our way through the opening Ashrei, the beautiful Kadesh with the special Nusach, the Selichos, and the one that we repeat, Sh'ma Koleinu, all of, uh, the end of it.
Efrem GoldbergHOST
And all of a sudden, this chazan started singing Avinu Malkeinu.
EinsteinPANELIST
Here, in the Yom Kippur of Mincha, it's Lichos, which are instituted into the Davening.
EinsteinPANELIST
And there's more room to be lenient and adopt this Minheim, which had been developed more later, locally, into Slichos than into the Mathea Shaltzila Be'etze.
SheehanPANELIST
Uh-huh.
SheehanPANELIST
Where did you see the sample?
Baruch SimonHOST
I don't know.
Baruch SimonHOST
It
EinsteinPANELIST
wasn't my idea that there's a helix between Slichos and Marbea Sheltzila.
EinsteinPANELIST
