(יט) בְּזֵעַת אַפֶּיךָ תֹּאכַל לֶחֶם עַד שׁוּבְךָ אֶל הָאֲדָמָה כִּי מִמֶּנָּה לֻקָּחְתָּ כִּי עָפָר אַתָּה וְאֶל עָפָר תָּשׁוּב:
We go on with some Bitachon views from Rav Chaim Kanievsky’s commentary on Tehilim. In chapter 37, pasuk 21, David Hamelech claims, לֹוֶ֣ה רָ֭שָׁע וְלֹ֣א יְשַׁלֵּ֑ם The wicked particular person borrows and will not pay back back . That does not mean that if an individual borrows money and for many purpose won't be able to pay back it back again, he’s wicked. Rav Yehezkiel Levenstein describes it means that the individual, at the time of borrowing the mortgage, had no approach to fork out it back again. This doesn't suggest that he borrowed which has a strategy, and it did not work out as a consequence of some unexpected cost like if someone obtained sick, or misplaced his career. This can be referring to a person who borrowed the money without having intend to repay it at the time of borrowing. It’s a Halacha which you can't borrow funds if you do not know how you are going to pay back it back. Rav Kanievsky writes that somebody once asked the Chazon Ish, “ Can you borrow cash without any prepare, depending on Bitachon- Relying on Hashem which i'll get the money when I need it?” There are lots of tales like that with excellent rabbis, similar to the Ponovezher Rav and Other folks, who borrowed funds without prepare and then in some way, miraculously, any person confirmed up and gave them revenue, just in time. So are you allowed to do this? The Chazon Ish gave an unbelievable reply. He says, “ Yes, but only should you be willing to lend any individual dollars within the idea of bitachon.” You cannot use bitachon selectively, and say, “ I am going to use bitachon to borrow funds, but I won't use bitachon to lend cash.” It needs to be genuine. We’ve mentioned right before that there's a concept identified as Bitachon Mezuyaf/copyright Bitachon , which happens to be faux bitachon. You will be utilizing it to be a tool. It isn't authentic. You might be not likely depending on God. In some cases you might be just lazy and use bitachon for a coverup. So how do We all know when bitachon is genuine? The Chazon Ish has an entire piece on this. You can find individuals that, obviously sing the bitachon song when anything's likely appropriate, but then quickly, a person opens a store throughout the road from theirs, and all their bitachon goes out the window. It was not actual. The Chazon Ish is expressing you are aware of if it’s true when a person knocks at your door and states, “ I do not actually Have got a plan but you should lend me income.” Are you currently now ready to invoke that Bitachon that that you're going to obtain the a refund immediately after this guy borrows the money from you?

Earlier this week, we talked about the pasuk in Tehilim (34,19) that says, קרוב ה׳ למשברי לב God is close to the brokenhearted. I occurred to find out a considered During this 7 days’s Parasha, Mishpatim , that also delivers this out. The pasuk states, מְלֵאָתְךָ֥ וְדִמְעֲךָ֖ לֹ֣א תְאַחֵ֑ר Maletcha V’Dimacha Lo T’Acher Just, Which means 1 shouldn't withhold tithes and terumot. However the Shelah HaKadosh explains inside a way of Remez/trace that Melatcha suggests complete , So it may possibly mean: Whenever your coronary heart is full of sorrow and pain, V’Dimacha, plus your tears are there likewise , if you pray, Lo T’Acher/ those prayers won't be held again because the gates of prayer are not closed. In Tehilim 6,9 David Hamelech claims, ס֣וּרוּ מִ֭מֶּנִּי כׇּל־פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן כִּֽי־שָׁמַ֥ע יְ֝הֹוָ֗ה ק֣וֹל בִּכְיִֽי Get faraway from me, all you wicked-doers For God has listened to my cries. How does David Hamelech know this? Rav Chaim Kanievsky suggests it’s as the Gemara in Berachot 32B says, “ The gates of tears aren’t closed.” David Hamelech know he was answered simply because he cried. And that is seriously this pasuk is stating, “ Dimacha/When you'll find tears, the prayer will not be delayed.” We see a thing very similar while in the Ramban in Mishpatim 22,twenty the place it daily bitachon talks about not initiating by using a widow or an orphan. The Ramban claims, “ Because I begin to see the tears with the oppressed And that i help save any individual from his oppressor.” Why? “Simply because they Really don't depend on themselves.” Widows and orphans Do not count on them selves. “ They trust in Me, and therefore when they cry to Me, I’m going hear them. Considering the fact that they know there's no just one else but Me to cry out to, I have to save them.” The Hovot Halevavot says this is amongst the explanations why our Bitachon might not operate. He says, In case you are counting on multiple particular person, each thinks somebody else will handle it. Cadre D’Bshutvi is a concept during the Gemara which suggests a a pot which includes many cooks. Too many chefs spoil the broth. Every person thinks somebody else will deal with it.
אמר החכם: כל אדם צריך גדר וסעד וסמך, כדי שיתקיימו מעשיו הטובים. ומהו הגדר? זהו הביטחון, שבוטח תמיד באלהים יתברך, כמו שנאמר (תהלים נה כג): "השלך על יי יהבך, והוא יכלכלך".
From this, bitachon concerns imply religion and is often employed interchangeably with emunah. But it means religion in an active perception, consciously inserting the load or one's concerns and concerns on God and trusting that items will figure out.
As we mentioned, most of the creatures of generation sing tunes which are present in Tehilim, and Perek Shira will be the put where They are really stated. It tells us that the scorpion says, Tov Hashem LKol God is sweet to all V’Rachamav Al Kol Maasav And it has mercy on all His creations Why does the scorpion sing that? What’s the relationship? Rav Chaim Kanievsky describes the scorpion is actually a terrible mazik / destroyer, capable of inflicting Dying with one Chunk. And so, whenever you see a scorpion, you crush it and kill it. You happen to be even permitted to get rid of a scorpion on Shabbat, due to Hazard. In addition, if a scorpion is coming to bite you, you run away, at any place in prayer. For this reason, God did a kindness Along with the scorpion, that is hunted by all. It offers birth to numerous, many offspring 1 time (the Yerushalmi claims it presents delivery to 70 at any given time). And they do not come out off eggs. They can be born Are living, in one single brood with quite a few, several infants. This is due to Hashem does not want the species to become worn out. So even on a thing as damaging as being a scorpion, God has mercy. In A further quote from Ashrei , which is taken in the animal kingdom, it says, סוֹמֵ֣ךְ ה׳ לְכׇל־הַנֹּפְלִ֑ים וְ֝זוֹקֵ֗ף לְכׇל־הַכְּפוּפִֽים God requires care of people who slide, and picks up those and which might be hunched around. That music was sung with the snake. The snake was cursed. He was the greatest Nofel . His legs were chopped off. Concerning the snake, it suggests, “ You shall go on your own abdomen.” Besides, God did a kindness for the snake, that on account of his curse, which was that Grime was could well be his food items, where ever he goes, his sustenance is there. So even over the snake, God has mercy. They're messages for us . The Gemara asks, what is the reason in God building all sorts of rodents and creatures that don't definitely incorporate to generation? The Midrash solutions that occasionally Hashem appears to be down at the globe and states, “The entire world has no cause to exist.” And God claims to Himself, “ If I am holding the globe going for creatures that don't have any authentic reason, like all All those insects and rodents, there is not any distinction for anything else.
(17) Now יהוה had explained, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I'm going to do, (18) due to the fact Abraham is to become a fantastic and populous country and the many nations of the earth are to bless themselves by him? (19) For I've singled him out, that he might instruct his youngsters and his posterity to help keep the way in which of יהוה by carrying out what is simply and ideal, so as that יהוה may well provide about for Abraham what has actually been promised him.
If God provides it about through his agency, and uses him as the instrument for benefiting his fellowman, he really should give many thanks for this privilege.

There’s little doubt that labor develops our character, the same as acting bravely produces a lot more energy from the character of the courageous man or woman. RaN (Rabbi Nissim ben Reuven of Gerona, Spain).
Like emunah, bitachon is Tremendous-rational. The person who retains such an Mind-set will almost always be capable to indicate the beneficial side of lifetime’s experiences, however it’s noticeable that their bitachon is just not dependent on these.
