OrthJBC - Mark - 10

10:1  And from there, having got up, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach comes into the region of Yehudah and on the other side of the Yarden, and again multitudes gather to him, and as was his minhag (custom), once more he was teaching them Torah. REBBE, MELECH HAMOSHIACH'S TORAH ON THE GET (MT 19:3-12; MK 10:2-12)

10:2  And, having approached, the Perushim, testing him, were asking him, "Is it mutar (permissible) for a man to give a get to his wife?"

10:3  But in reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, "What mitzva did Moshe [Rabbeinu] give you?"

10:4  And they said, "Moshe Rabbeinu made it mutar (permissible) for a man to write SEFER KERITUT (a get, a sefer keritut, bill of divorcement) and to send her away (dismiss her, divorce her)." [Devarim 24:1-4]

10:5  But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, "Because of the hardness of your levavot, he wrote you this mitzva. [Tehillim 95:8]

10:6  "But from the Reshit of the Beri'ah (beginning of the creation) ZACHAR UNEKEVAH BARA OTAM (Hashem "made them male and female"). [Bereshis 1:27,5:2]

10:7  "AL KEN YA'AZAV ISH ES AVIV V'ES IMMO V'DAVAK B'ISHTO

10:8  VHAYU L'VASAR ECHAD" (" A man will leave his father and his mother and he will be joined to his isha (wife), and the two will be one flesh;") [Bereshis 2:24] For this reason, they are no longer Shenayim but Basar Echad.

10:9  "Therefore, what Hashem has joined together, let no ben Adam separate."

10:10  And in the bais, the talmidim began to question Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach about this again.

10:11  And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, "Whoever gives a get to his isha and marries another, commits ni'uf (adultery) against his isha.

10:12  And if she gets a gerushim (divorcement) from her ba'al and marries another, she commits ni'uf (adultery). [Mattityahu 19:9] REBBE, MELECH HAMOSHIACH ON THE SUBJECT OF CHINUCH HABANOS (MT 19:13-15; MK 10:13-16; LK 18:15-17)

10:13  And they brought to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach yeladim that he might lay his hands on them. But the talmidim rebuked them.

10:14  And having seen this, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach became displeased and indignant, and said to his talmidim, "Permit the yeladim to come to me, and do not hinder them, for of such as these is the Malchut Hashem.

10:15  "Omein, I say to you, whoever is not mekabel Malchut Hashem as a yeled would be mekabel Malchut Hashem, will by no means enter it."

10:16  And having taken the yeladim into his arms, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach laid his hands on them and made a berakhah over them. REBBE, MELECH HAMOSHIACH AND ONE OF THE BAALE-BATTIM OF YISROEL, WHO BECAUSE OF HIS LACK OF PERCEPTION OF TRUE RICHES, PASSES BY THE OPPORTUNITY TO BECOME MEKABEL MOSHIACH AND RECEIVE S'MICHAH AND THE AVODAS KODESH MINISTRY OF ONE OF MOSHIACH'S TALMIDIM. (MT 19:13-15; MK10:13-16; LK 18:15-17)

10:17  And as Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was setting out to travel, one running and falling down before him, was asking him, "Rabbi haTov, what mitzva may I do that I might inherit Chayyei Olam?"

10:18  And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to him, "Why do you call me `tov'? No one [is] tov except echad, Elohim."

10:19  "You have da'as of the mitzvot, the Aseres Ha-Dibros (The Decalogue), LO TIRTZACH, LO TINAF, LO TIGNOV, LO TA'ANEH V'REI'AC ED SHAKER, KABEID ES A'VICHA V'ES IMMECHAH ("Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness (do not defraud), honor your father and mother.")" [Shemot 20:12-16; Devarim 5:16-20]

10:20  And the man was saying to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, "Rabbi, from kinder-yoren I have been shomer mitzvot, keeping all these things."

10:21  And looking at him and having ahavah for his neshamah, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to him, "One thing you lack: go and sell all your possessions and give to the aniyim (poor), and you will have otzar (treasure) in Shomayim; and come, follow me [as my talmid].

10:22  But at the dvar haMoshiach, his face turned gloomy and he departed with agmat nefesh, for he had many possessions.

10:23  And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, looking around, says to his talmidim, "How difficult it will be for the ashirim to enter the Malchut Hashem!" [Tehillim 52:7, 62:10]

10:24  And the talmidim were amazed at his dvarim. But again Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, in reply, says to them, "Yeladim, how difficult it is to enter into the Malchut Hashem.

10:25  "It is easier [for] a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for an ashir (rich person) to enter the Malchut Hashem."

10:26  And they were even more amazed, saying to one another, "Then who with the Yeshu'at Eloheinu is able to be saved?"

10:27  Having looked at them, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says, "With bnei Adam [this is] impossible, but not with Hashem. For all things are possible with Hashem."

10:28  Shimon Kefa began to say to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, "Hinei! We left everything and have followed you!"

10:29  Yehoshua said, "Omein, I say to you, there is no one who left bais or achim or achayot or imma or abba or banim or sadot for the sake of me and for the sake of the Besuras HaGeulah,

10:30  "but that he shall receive a hundredfold now in the Olam Hazeh, batim (houses) and achim and achayot and imahot and banim and sadot with redifot (persecutions); and in Olam Habah, Chayyei Olam." THE RISHONIM (FIRST) AND THE ACHARONIM (LAST)

10:31  "And many Rishonim will be Acharonim; and the Acharonim, will be Rishonim." REBBE, MELECH HAMOSHIACH AND HIS THIRD NEVU'AH CONCERNING HIS MAVET AND TECHIYAS HAMESIM (MT 20:17-19; MK 10:32-34; LK 18:31-34)

10:32  And they were on the derech making aliyah leregel to Yerushalayim, and Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was leading out, walking ahead of them, and they were astounded, and the ones following were afraid. And again Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach took the Shneym Asar aside for a yechidus and began to tell them what was to happen to him,

10:33  saying, "Hinei, we are making aliyah leregel to Yerushalayim, and the Ben Adam will be betrayed to the Rashei Hakohanim and the Sofrim (Scribes) and they will condemn him with onesh mavet and will hand him over to the Goyim,

10:34  "And they will mock him and spit on him and scourge him and will kill [him], and on the Yom HaShelishi he in his Techiyas HaMesim stand up alive again." YOCHANAN AND YA'AKOV: SELFISH AMBITION AND THE KOS OF REBBE, MELECH HAMOSHIACH (MT 20:20-28; MK 10:35-45)

10:35  And Ya'akov and Yochanan, the banim of Zavdai, approached Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, saying to him, "Rebbe, we wish that whatever bakosha (request, pidyon nefesh) we may ask you, you may do for us."

10:36  And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, "What do you wish me to do for you?"

10:37  And they said to him, "Grant to us that one may sit limin of you (right hand) and one lismol (left hand) in the kavod of your kisse."

10:38  But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, "You do not have da'as of what you ask. Are you able to drink the kos which I drink or the tevilah in which I am submerged?" [Iyov 38:2]

10:39  And they said to him, "We are able." And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, "The kos which I drink you shall drink; and you shall have the tevilah in which I am submerged.

10:40  "But to sit limin or lismol of me is not mine to grant, but for the ones for whom it has been prepared."

10:41  And hearing this, the Asarah (Ten) became indignant with Ya'akov and Yochanan.

10:42  And having summoned them, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, "You have da'as that among the Goyim those whom they recognize as their moshlim (rulers) domineer them and their Gedolim exercise authority over them.

10:43  "However, it is not so among you. He who wishes to become gadol among you must be your mesharet."

10:44  And whoever wishes to be Rishon among you must be eved of all.

10:45  For even the Ben HaAdam (Moshiach, Daniel 7:13-14) did not come to be served but to serve and to give his nefesh as a pedut ransom [for the Geulah] for many." [Yeshayah 53:10-11] A MIRACLE: A JEWISH MAN ENABLED TO SEE REBBE, MELECH HAMOSHIACH BEN DOVID (MT 20:29-34; 10:46-52; LK 18:35-43)

10:46  And they come to Yericho. And as Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was going forth from Yericho with his talmidim and a great multitude, Bar-Timai [son of Timai], an ivver kabbetsan (a blind beggar) was sitting beside the road.

10:47  And when he heard that it was Yehoshua from Natzeret coming, he began to cry out and to shout, "Ben Dovid Yehoshua, chaneini!"

10:48  And many were rebuking him that he should shekit, but he kept crying out all the more, "Ben Dovid, chaneini!"

10:49  Having stopped, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, "Summon him here." And they called the ivver, saying to him, "Chazak! Cheer up! He is calling you!"

10:50  And having tossed aside his kaftan, and having jumped up, he came to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.

10:51  And in reply, Yehoshua said, "What do you wish that I may do for you? And the ivver said to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, "Rabboni, that I may see."

10:52  And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to him, "Go, your emunah has brought you tikkun." And ofen ort (immediately) he regained his sight and he began following Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach baderech.
