Why Are People Living Longer Today?

This Torah class is brought to you by Torahanytime.com

Today in the United States and across much of the world

Life expectancy is more than double what it was just a century ago

It is no longer unusual to find children in their 60s and 70s

Sometimes approaching 80, caring for parents nearing a hundred

Science attributes this dramatic rise to improved hygiene, better nutrition, safer living conditions

Remarkable medical advances

But the question is why did Hashem choose now in our generation to grant humanity such unprecedented longevity?

Why did a college worker reveal these medical breakthroughs specifically in our time?

So let me share with you a beautiful insight from which time on Zatah

We know that Ace of Excelled in the midst of Kibbid-Av in the most extraordinary way

The message tells us that the holy towner of Shimmigamblil said

No one honored their parents the way I honored my parents

Yet I discovered that Ace of honored his parents even more than I did

He said, I served my parents in ordinary clothes

And I saved my finest garments from when I went outside

Ace of the opposite, he wore simple clothes on the street and reserved his most elegant garments for when he served his father

Ace of was intensely zealous in the midst of Kibbid-Av

Even Yakov Avinu testified that Ace of never once caused their father Yitzhak any pain

So why was Ace of so vigilant in this midst of?

So the morale explains that Ace of was drawn to midstvists that aligned with human logic, with human intellect

Kibbid-Av is a midstvist that resonates deeply with Seychelles

Parents bring a child into this world, they nurture him, they protect him

It just makes sense to honor them

With this, if Steinman offered an extraordinary idea

As we approach the end of days, as the world moves closer to the era of Mashiach

The long, spiritual struggle with Ace of reaches its climax

Ace of unique strength in Kibbid-Av must be counterbalanced by Kali's role

Therefore, Hashem has extended human life

Long Jeopardy is not merely biological, it is spiritual

Hashem has given us more years, more generations, and more opportunities to fulfill the midst of Kibbid-Av

In a way that rivals and ultimately surpasses Ace of greatness

And as parents age, the challenge of this midst will grow exponentially

Patients and sacrifice, dignity and dedication are tested on the highest level

And indeed, doctors and nurses and hospitals across the world testify

that no one cares for their elderly parents with such devotion, with sensitivity and respect

that the Jewish families do

Kali Israel is rising to the challenge

As an example, my father, Oliver Shalom, was in and out of the hospital for over six months before he passed away

There was never a moment when he was left alone

24-7 family members were always there, often two or three at a time

Other patients, non-Jewish, rarely had any visitors

The hospital staff marveled at the extraordinary devotion they witnessed

And this is not unique to our family

This takes place in Jewish families across the world

Reshtimon himself tragically was deprived of the opportunity to fulfill the midst of Kibbid-Av aimfully

His parents were tragically murdered in the war and he alone survived

Once he was invited to speak about Kibbid-Av at a gathering in Manabraq and he refused

When pressed, he said, I remember when I was ten years old, my mother once prepared food for me and refused to eat it

So I do not feel that I'm worthy to speak about this midst, unbelievable

We can only imagine the nachos his parents feel now in the oil of mamas

At the age of 104, his pure nashama returned to its creator

A journey he had prepared for his entire life

And as will, he left instructions reflecting his staggering humility

Noah spade them, Noah newspaper articles, no public announcements

Ten people are not for the lavaya

He wrote, do not call me a Jewish amine, let's not be embarrassed in the oil of mamas

Wow, the good oil and we were so eager to see from the previous generation

So Hashem left in life so we can live higher

Every extra year is another chance to honor parents, to deepen our moonah, to refine our midoes, to add toyramits with

And as Kai Israel rises spiritually, we are quietly preparing the world for Mishiyach

Made conspirately in our days

And now, we know, have a wonderful day
