Matt SchneeweissHostPanelistPanelistMoshePanelistEzraPanelistIsaacPanelistYeah.
Am I what? Yeah.

Ezra's was the main one, which is that if you have a city with a wall, but there's a breach, then effectively it's like there is no wall in the sense that people can get in.

There's got to be a term for this as well, that there are certain things where the difference between 99% and 100% is... truly quantitative, but...

This is qualitative, yeah, exactly, right? So two, the person who is lacking even restraint for a single emotion, even in a single instance, any foreign and false influences can potentially rush in and undo him.

So the Havamina is that if you're near perfect, but you occasionally lose your temper, so then, yeah, you're 99% good.

Effectively, it's like he's defenseless because the temper issue can let in influences that cause as much wreckage as if he were otherwise not perfected, or they can...

They can be disastrous from one instance, like with the Moshe Rabbeinu example.

And then Ezra had theorized that it's possible that the one deficiency indicates that the other walls are not as secure.
Yeah, it doesn't, it's
necessarily going to lead to effects in the other walls, but in terms of what the other walls are trying to prevent, then it will, that one breach will let you in.
Yeah.
