(יט) בְּזֵעַת אַפֶּיךָ תֹּאכַל לֶחֶם עַד שׁוּבְךָ אֶל הָאֲדָמָה כִּי מִמֶּנָּה לֻקָּחְתָּ כִּי עָפָר אַתָּה וְאֶל עָפָר תָּשׁוּב:
We proceed with a few Bitachon thoughts from Rav Chaim Kanievsky’s commentary on Tehilim. In chapter 37, pasuk 21, David Hamelech claims, לֹוֶ֣ה רָ֭שָׁע וְלֹ֣א יְשַׁלֵּ֑ם The wicked individual borrows and would not fork out again . That does not necessarily mean that if a person borrows income and for some purpose are not able to spend it back again, he’s wicked. Rav Yehezkiel Levenstein clarifies it ensures that the person, at enough time of borrowing the mortgage, had no solution to pay out it back again. This doesn't suggest that he borrowed having a prepare, and it didn't work out because of some unanticipated price such as if another person bought sick, or shed his career. This can be referring to a person that borrowed The cash without any intend to repay it at some time of borrowing. It’s a Halacha that you could't borrow revenue if you don't know how you are going to pay it again. Rav Kanievsky writes that somebody the moment asked the Chazon Ish, “ Can you borrow money with no program, counting on Bitachon- Relying on Hashem that I'll get the money when I want it?” There are numerous stories like that with wonderful rabbis, like the Ponovezher Rav and Some others, who borrowed cash without any prepare and after that by some means, miraculously, somebody confirmed up and gave them income, just in time. So have you been authorized to try this? The Chazon Ish gave an unbelievable solution. He says, “ Of course, but only should you be willing to lend anyone funds to the notion of bitachon.” You can't use bitachon selectively, and say, “ I'll use bitachon to borrow cash, but I will never use bitachon to lend cash.” It should be genuine. We’ve reported in advance of that there's a notion known as Bitachon Mezuyaf/copyright Bitachon , and that is faux bitachon. You happen to be using it as being a Instrument. It isn't authentic. You happen to be probably not counting on God. From time to time you might be just lazy and use bitachon as a coverup. So how do we know when bitachon is real? The Chazon Ish has an entire piece on this. You will discover people that, certainly sing the bitachon track when all the things's heading suitable, but then abruptly, another person opens a shop throughout the street from theirs, and all their bitachon goes out the window. It was not true. The Chazon Ish is indicating you already know if it’s true when another person knocks at your door and states, “ I do not actually Possess a plan but please lend me revenue.” Are you now in a position to invoke that Bitachon that that you're going to obtain the a refund just after this male borrows the money from you?
We go on with hiddushim of Bitachon from Rav Chaim Kanievsky on Tehilim. In chapter sixty six, pasuk three, David Hamelech claims, אִמְר֣וּ לֵ֭אלֹהִים מַה־נּוֹרָ֣א מַעֲשֶׂ֑יךָ בְּרֹ֥ב עֻ֝זְּךָ֗ יְֽכַחֲשׁ֖וּ לְךָ֣ אֹיְבֶֽיךָ׃ We'll say to God, ‘How wonderful are Your acts and Your wonderful energy. Your enemies will deny they ever sinned against You.’ They're going to notice how potent You might be plus they’ll deny every little thing every time they’re placed on trial. They're going to endeavor to deny anything as they'll recognize they'll be punished. That's the simple rationalization. Rav Chaim Kanievsky brings quotes a Midrash Raba in Esther, ten,fifteen in which it suggests that ‘ How wonderful is God,’ suggests “ How awesome are Your techniques which you do to humble the enemies inside a most wondrous way ? Those who are purported to be killed will lead to the Some others to be killed. Those people who are alleged to be hung will result in their hangers for being hung. People that had been pushed in the sea will end up creating the ones that pushed them to go in The ocean. Those that ended up burnt will result in the Many others being burnt. And those that be thrown for lions, they lead to the Other people for being thrown in the lions.” What does that mean? Rav Chaim Kanievsky points out that in background, we see that once the enemies from the Jews make an effort to damage them, the extremely space that they attempted to damage them with bounces again on them. -One of several very first instances of the was Moshe Rabbenu. It claims that he termed his son Eliezer to remind himself that God saved him from the sword of Paroah. What does that necessarily mean?They wanted to get rid of Moshe because it was described to Paroah that he killed an Egyptian taskmaster, but in the event the executioner hit Moshe Rabbenu’s neck with his sword, God created a miracle that turned Moshe’s neck into marble, along with the knife bounced again and killed the executioner. -An example of The ones that would like to dangle will probably be hung, is Haman. He well prepared the big pole to hang Mordechai on, but in its place, he was hung on it. - Those that are drowning individuals inside the ocean refers back to the Egyptians that started out off by drowning the Jewish children.

Bitachon now could be the exhaustive number of safety checks one passes by prior to boarding an El AL flight and, in Israel, right before getting into a shopping mall, café or post Office environment.
As we stated, many of the creatures of development sing tunes which have been found in Tehilim, and Perek Shira would be the area where They may be listed. It tells us which the scorpion claims, Tov Hashem LKol God is sweet to all V’Rachamav Al Kol Maasav And has mercy on all His creations Why does the scorpion sing that? What’s the link? Rav Chaim Kanievsky explains which the scorpion is really a awful mazik / destroyer, effective at inflicting death with a single Chunk. And so, any time you see a scorpion, you crush it and get rid of it. That you are even allowed to eliminate a scorpion on Shabbat, due to Risk. Moreover, if a scorpion is coming to Chunk you, you operate absent, at any level in prayer. Due to this, God did a kindness Together with the scorpion, which is hunted by all. It gives start to many, quite a few offspring a person time (the Yerushalmi claims it presents delivery to 70 at a time). And they don't come out off eggs. They are born Reside, in one solitary brood with a lot of, many babies. This is because Hashem doesn't want the species to get worn out. So even on one thing as destructive as a scorpion, God has mercy. In A different estimate from Ashrei , that's taken from the animal kingdom, it suggests, סוֹמֵ֣ךְ ה׳ לְכׇל־הַנֹּפְלִ֑ים וְ֝זוֹקֵ֗ף לְכׇל־הַכְּפוּפִֽים God usually takes care of those that fall, and picks up Individuals and that happen to be hunched about. That tune was sung via the snake. The snake was cursed. He was the greatest Nofel . His legs were being chopped off. With regard to the snake, it says, “ You shall go on your stomach.” Besides, God did a kindness towards the snake, that because of his curse, which was that dirt was could be his foodstuff, wherever he goes, his sustenance is there. So even within the snake, God has mercy. These are typically messages for us . The Gemara asks, what is the function in God building all sorts of rodents and creatures that do not really incorporate to creation? The Midrash responses that from time to time Hashem looks down at the world and says, “The world has no rationale to exist.” And God states to Himself, “ If I'm maintaining the whole world going for creatures that don't have any real purpose, like all those insects and rodents, there isn't any big difference for almost everything else.
Alternatively, bitachon is just not a strategy to govern the universe. Your perception will not generate good—The nice wherein that you are so assured is previously the fundamental reality.
If God provides it about by way of his agency, and takes advantage of him given that the instrument for benefiting his fellowman, he ought to offer you thanks for this privilege.
But someone that doesn't would like to manual himself in an clever manner and exposes himself to hazards - this isn't trust in G-d but fairly foolishness. Such a person sins in that he's performing towards the will of G-d who needs that a person guard himself.
” וְשֶׁב־שָׁ֑ם וַעֲשֵׂה־שָׁ֣ם מִזְבֵּ֔חַ And Sit there And make an altar there. The Seforno asks, Exactly what are we introducing with Those people two terms- ‘( And) sit there ?’ The Seforno solutions that Hashem was telling Yaakov Avinu this basic principle from the pious Adult males of aged, as he was about to make an altar, Which’s what our prayer is today; it’s a substitute for the sacrifices or offerings within the altar. Hashem was teaching which you could't just dive into that featuring. You have to sit and ponder. So This can be an historic thought. People today currently glance to Eastern cultures for meditation and mindfulness. But almost everything which is fantastic is present in our Torah. That is this concept of Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha. There's no need to sit there with your legs crossed and a turban on. You are able to sit using your legs straight together with your tefilin on. The point is identical: Concentrate . Crystal clear your intellect on the muddle before you decide to pray. A different resource for this concept is found in the Yalkut Shemoni, Shemuel ב It says that David Hamelech states, “I wouldn't pray to God right up until I stood still and calmed down. And afterwards I would pray.” Since it claims in Shemuel ב (7,eighteen) וַיָּבֹא֙ הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ דָּוִ֔ד וַיֵּ֖שֶׁב לִפְנֵ֣י ה׳ “ King David arrived, and he sat in front of God,” He sat , and just after he sat and had kavana , after which you can he began to pray. So this is a thing we see from the greats of our past: Yaakov Avinu, David Hamelech… They are really educating us this important idea of Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha/ Lucky are the ones that just sit and ponder prior to they pray and obvious their minds in the clutter. And once again, This is often introduced down in Shulchan Aruch ( Or HaChaim chapter ninety eight) This is simply not just for Hasidim HaRishonim. He suggests, this might be quite possibly the most challenging detail for people, “ Get rid of many of the views that happen to be preoccupying you, till your ideas plus your kavana are pure.” After which you can you can begin praying. Which is for the frequent particular person. The Hasidim HaRishonim would commit an hour or so , And they might reach higher ranges. We are just requesting a number of moments of Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha. Have a beautiful day.
Right now We are going to share two gorgeous Hashgacha Pratit tales about bringing back somebody that was going to be dropped. In the very first Tale, a boy writes a Thanks letter to his parents over the day of his wedding, as is customary for Lots of individuals. “ When you keep in mind, ” he wrote, “ there was a time Once i was in high school, After i was not Mastering incredibly effectively, and I was falling out. Dad came and gave me a speech, As well as in every week or so, I circled. You thought that's what caused me to turn around. But allow me to let you know the true story: I was really dropping low. I used to be hanging all-around with not the most effective of pals. We had truly purchased tickets to go on a visit, and we have been just planning to have some pleasurable. What exactly brought on me to alter my head? Back After i was in sixth grade or seventh quality, we were creating a siyum on a perek in Gemara called Hamafkid, and all the youngsters had been purported to bring some thing with the siyum.” He reminded his mother and father how on that day, his mom was making a cake for the Sheva Berachot, and considering the fact that she was baking in any case, she chose to make a thing wonderful to the siyum. So she produced two cakes. One gorgeous, 7 layer cake, which was supposed to the Sheva Berachot, and a more basic cake, which was for your siyum. But when her son opened the fridge that morning and noticed The gorgeous cake, he couldn’t believe that what his mother had made for his siyum, and he took it to school. When his mom understood what occurred, she considered going to the school to change it. But when she considered how psyched her son was, she made a decision to go away it. Her son arrived property that working day and stated, “ Wow! All the opposite Children bought licorice and minimal matters, and I purchased this unbelievable cake!” And he was so pleased with himself. He wrote that the early morning that he was going to go on this journey, he went bitachon into a bakery and he observed a 7 layer cake inside the window. And it strike him, how strongly his mom felt about his Studying and how Specific it had been. He just could not bring himself to do it, so he instructed his Good friend he wasn't taking place the vacation with him. And all the things circled. What an unbelievable story! Appear how Hashem orchestrated that, through a error, the seven layer cake wound up visiting the siyum, and afterwards the boy noticed a cake like that on the working day of his excursion and circled.
