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 will say to God, ‘How great are Your acts and also your good power. Your enemies will deny that they at any time sinned versus You.’ They can notice how solid You are and so they’ll deny anything once they’re put on demo. They are going to make an effort to deny almost everything because they'll recognize they are going to be punished. Which is the simple explanation. Rav Chaim Kanievsky provides prices a Midrash Raba in Esther, ten,15 exactly where it says that ‘ How magnificent is God,’ indicates “ How amazing are Your strategies that you simply do to humble the enemies within a most wondrous way ? People who are supposed to be killed will cause the Many others for being killed. Those people who are purported to be hung will cause their hangers to get hung. People who had been pushed in the sea will end up resulting in the ones that pushed them to go in the sea. The ones that had been burnt will induce the Other people being burnt. And people who be thrown for lions, they lead to the Other individuals being thrown into your lions.” What does that necessarily mean? Rav Chaim Kanievsky points out that in heritage, we see that in the event the enemies in the Jews try to destroy them, the pretty area that they attempted to wipe out them with bounces back on them. -One of many initially cases of the was Moshe Rabbenu. It says that he termed his son Eliezer to remind himself that God saved him in the sword of Paroah. What does that imply?They desired to kill Moshe since it was described to Paroah that he killed an Egyptian taskmaster, but if the executioner hit Moshe Rabbenu’s neck along with his sword, God manufactured a wonder that turned Moshe’s neck into marble, as well as the knife bounced again and killed the executioner. -An illustration of Those that wish to hold are going to be hung, is Haman. He geared up the large pole to hang Mordechai on, but in its place, he was hung on it. - The ones that are drowning people inside the ocean refers back to the Egyptians that started off by drowning the Jewish small children.
Chovos HaLevavos is the fact that belief in Hashem contributes to assurance and tranquility with the soul. We can't force ourselves to sense calm. Our power to free of charge ourselves from fear and have faith in in the end result is immediately proportional to the standard of our possibilities.
With Hashem's enable, I a short while ago chanced on a commentary on Tehilim prepared by Rav Chaim Kanievsky z’l. To be familiar with Tehilim, it is important to be aware of the background and historic context of your chapter that David Hamelech is creating about. Just what was going on in his in everyday life when he wrote it? Sometimes he tells us what precisely’s happening within the heading, regardless of whether he’s managing absent, becoming chased, and so forth. But at times he won't. And sometimes, it seems like he is telling us what's going on, but we really don't get it. Rav Chaim Kanievsky, together with his incredible expertise in Torah, finds a Midrash that can help us fully grasp a single these kinds of chapter. Chapter thirty is called Mizmor Shir, Hanukat HaBayit L’David/a tune with the determination of your house, referring to the Wager Hamikdash, by David. There are two problems with this. Primary is the fact that David Hamelech was not with the Hanukat HaBayit- he died just before that. As we’ve talked over prior to now, Rashi clarifies that he wrote it for being mentioned on the Hanukat Habayit. The next problem is that there's no discussion on the Hanukat HaBayit in this Mizmor. It claims, אֲרוֹמִמְךָ֣ ה׳ כִּ֣י דִלִּיתָ֑נִי God lifted me up… שִׁוַּ֥עְתִּי אֵ֝לֶ֗יךָ וַתִּרְפָּאֵֽנִי I referred to as out to You and you also healed me. You raise me within the depths, and so on. What does that have to carry out Together with the Hanukat Habayit? Additional in the perek, it says, הֲיוֹדְךָ֥ עָפָ֑ר הֲיַגִּ֥יד אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃ Will Filth praise You and say around Your reality? לְמַ֤עַן ׀ יְזַמֶּרְךָ֣ כָ֭בוֹד וְלֹ֣א יִדֹּ֑ם יְהֹוָ֥ה אֱ֝לֹהַ֗י לְעוֹלָ֥ם אוֹדֶֽךָּ To ensure my soul will sing to You for good.. So, again, what is going on on? Rav Chaim cites a Midrash that David Hamelech was Unwell for 13 many years, as he claims in another perek, יָגַ֤עְתִּי ׀ בְּֽאַנְחָתִ֗י אַשְׂחֶ֣ה בְכׇל־לַ֭יְלָה מִטָּתִ֑י בְּ֝דִמְעָתִ֗י עַרְשִׂ֥י אַמְסֶֽה Every night time I'm crying in my bed . So he experienced for 13 many years, And through this time his enemies hoping he’d die. David Hamelech was clearly praying to obtain outside of this situation. What acquired him out of it? He last but not least came up with the subsequent prayer, “ Be sure to help save me in order that I'll provide the power to strategy the Guess Hamikdash,” and t hat's when he obtained out of his mattress and wrote what’s known as the Megilat Binyan Wager Hamikdash/ the architectural plans for the Guess a HaMikdash, and God heard his prayer.
Not like emunah, bitachon doesn't Dwell inside of anyone within a uniform point out. Usually it’s great sitting from the history: You go about your online business the most beneficial you can, with best religion that “G‑d will bless you in whatsoever you are doing,” and for that reason it’s not your personal smarts or labor that will supply success, but “G‑d’s blessing is exactly what tends to make a person abundant.”
These days We're going to share an Emunah- Bitachon considered connected to the reading through of Amalek that We will try this week, as we constantly do in advance of Purim. The Midrash Tanhuma asks, just what did Amalek accomplish? Amalek attacked the Jewish men and women and Amalek obtained burnt, so what did they complete? The Midrash Tanhuma compares it to some bubbling incredibly hot bath that everybody is concerned to enter. Then a single guy jumps in, and cools it off for everybody else, Despite the fact that he gets burnt. What exactly is the fact that mashal telling us? The Baalei Mussar clarify that there are various levels of Emuna. Anyone can have confidence in his head . If he’s really mental, and cerebral, he thinks in God depending on proofs and philosophy. One more individual may believe in God via his coronary heart , and his emotions provide him to recognize God. He is moved by a wonderful scene, and he's emotionally a believer. Then there is a level termed Emunah Hushit/ Emunah while in the senses , when anyone can feel and touch God as being a actuality. That is the optimum degree. It isn't really one thing cerebral or emotional. And similar to You would not set your finger in fireplace due to the fact instinctively, you pull it out, that was the level of Emuna and clarity that the earth had concerning the energy of God along with the superiority of the Jewish men and women. It was similar to a bubbling scorching tub to them. It wasn't a matter of intellect. It wasn't a matter of emotion. They realized not To place their finger in, mainly because they’d get burnt. That's what Amalek cooled off. That's why it states Asher Karacha Baderech, he cooled us off. What did he amazing particularly? The Elder of Kelm describes wonderfully that Amalek planned to great the Jewish persons off from their own individual greatness. From, in his words, “ The greatness in their coronary heart and also the greatness in their souls. ” All the things that happened by way of Yetziat Mitzrayim lifted up the Jewish men and women to a greater degree, they usually, in turn, recognized their connection to God. They understood they have been the Am HaNivchar / The Selected Nation .
So it had been made the decision that you choose to ended up gonna make $one hundred,000, and then the industry dropped so you shed $ten,000 therefore you ended up with $90,000. What's the primary difference? The primary difference is, as we now see, in this way, you obtain the kapara . You obtain the atonement for The cash that you simply lost. You actually in no way got it, but God, in His mercy can make it counts bitachon for Kapara . But, suggests the Chafetz Chaim, There is certainly even a greater amount- Rav Yochanan Ben Zachai’s nephews gave the money to Sedaka. So not merely can you end up that you had been designed to make $100,000 dollars, however, you lost $ten,000. But if you take that $ten,000, give it to charity, it counts like a decline, but it's not a decline, because it turns into a tremendous, tremendous zechut. Which is how Hashem runs the earth, in this manner of mercy. Just keep in mind, when we say, פּוֹתֵ֥חַ אֶת־יָדֶ֑ךָ וּמַשְׂבִּ֖יעַ לְכׇל־חַ֣י רָצֽוֹן׃ God opens up His fingers and satiates to everybody, what his wills are. Hashem, open up Your palms and remember to give me all of that bounty,” don’t say, “ Hey, it's not working, it isn't coming in.” It really is Performing , you're obtaining it, Nevertheless they're getting it far from you, to be able to offer you a kapara before you get it. So You should not Consider All those prayers ended up wasted. It's bringing you all types of atonements. What you might have gotten, and should have gotten, was taken clear of you. The Pele Yoetz, in the topic of Daagah/stress, discusses this also. He made use of the mashal of the king that tells a debtor that It is not possible for somebody to owe money into the king and not pay back him. “ So I'm going to slide some money via your doorway, and you'll pay out me back again with that. I'll even leave you some leftovers in addition. I am going to Supply you with a bit a lot more than you'll need. ” That's what Hashem does. He offers us, and then He can make us reduce, and that is how He offers us the kapara . That is how He pays us off. The Pele Yoetz cites a midrash that claims, Hodu L’Hashem Ki Tov, Praise Hashem, for He is good What's the ki Tov/superior ? That Hashem collects the debts in the absolute best way for someone. Your wine bottle breaks, your rooster dies, you stub your toe. God's mercy is ample in how He seems for tactics for us to pay for back, in by far the most painless of ways. Yet another mashal is supplied of the king Having said that whoever dedicated a specific would have a sizable boulder dropped on him, Which boulder would eliminate the person. But it really turned out the king’s son dedicated the crime. Therefore the king took the boulder and broke it into compact small pebbles and had the pebbles thrown at his son, one at a time. פּוֹתֵ֥חַ אֶת־יָדֶ֑ךָ וּמַשְׂבִּ֖יעַ לְכׇל־חַ֣י רָצֽוֹן׃ God opens up His arms and satiates to Most people, what his wills are. When it appears like you didn’t get Everything you needed, you probably did- but it was taken faraway from you prior to deciding to obtained it, in a means that would result in you to secure a kapara . Have an excellent working day.
Likewise, when asked by anyone… [to try and do] a thing, he really should consider to get it done with all his coronary heart and target his thoughts on carrying it out, provided that he is capable and that the just one who questioned him is worthy of the effort. Then he need to put his have faith in in God for its accomplishment.

One of the more renowned Mizmoreh Tehilim that we are saying is (chapter a hundred thirty) שִׁ֥יר הַֽמַּעֲל֑וֹת מִמַּעֲמַקִּ֖ים קְרָאתִ֣יךָ ה ׳ A tune on the Ascents, From the depths I get in touch with out to you Hashem There's a well known Chazal named Perek Shira, which fits by means of all the several music that each generation sings. Everything on this planet sings a music of praise to God, and we can easily understand quite a bit by working out why each creation sings what it sings. In chapter three of Perek Shira, the song of the wheat kernel is described. The wheat kernel sings this mizmor , שִׁ֥יר הַֽמַּעֲל֑וֹת מִמַּעֲמַקִּ֖ים קְרָאתִ֣יךָ ה ׳ A tune with the Ascents, In the depths I simply call out to you Hashem Why does the wheat kernel sing this tune? Rav Chaim Kanievsky, in his commentary on Tehilim, explains that wheat is undoubtedly an illustration of something which, when planted, commences rotting, but then, out from the rotting arrives something that's much more highly effective than Anything you place in. You set in a single grain and you will get out a complete payload. What's the concept? That even during the depths of the earth, which symbolize the depths of one's issues, if anyone phone calls out to God, He'll take him away from his complications. He'll convey him achievement. The wheat symbolizes that, because the wheat kernel makes bread, that's man's staple. Rav Kanievsky adds the Yerushalmi ( in Masechet Avodah Zara) tells us that the common the average plant grows 3 hand- fists beneath the ground, but wheat grows 50 cubits underground, and that is Considerably, Substantially further than the common progress.
