“Isn’t he embarrassed?? He mentioned in his lecture, something he learned from a 10 year old!!”

“And G-d spoke to Moshe in the desert of Sinai.” (Bimidbar 1:1) The Medrash Rabbah 1:7 says “whoever doesn’t make himself open and free like a desert will not be able to acquire wisdom and Torah.” According to the Matnas Kehuna, this refers to humility and the ability to learn from everyone!!

“Who is wise? One who learns from everyone.” (Pirkei Avos 4:1)

Have a great Shabbos!!
