Welcome back to this week's Eminent
Inspire. Shabot is coming up next week
and you know Shabot is a the holiday we
receive the Torah and you have there's a
incredible vagon on Mish in chapter 22:1
19 that says like
this that the main reason that Hashem
gave the Jewish people the Torah is so
they can put their trust in Hashem.
Because the most important the most
important than anything else is for us
to learn how to put our full trust in
Hashem. And it's interesting because in
last week's
para in it opens
up that Hashem spoke to Moshe on hari
saying and then he gives him the mitz of
shmita. So everybody's very perplexed
weren't all the mitz given on oni. Why
are we specifically talking about shmita
which is the the fact that you're not
allowed to uh work the land in Israel on
the seventh year. Why is that
particularly being discussed as being
given at at Harayiah in the mountain of
Sinai? And there's different answers,
but we could suggest a potential answer
that it's because based on the vagon
that the most important, the reason the
Torah Hashem gave us the Torah was so
that we can learn how
to so that is all about having in fact
it's probably the hardest one of the
hardest ways to show it. You don't work
for seven for one year out of seven. You
have land, you have a field, you cannot
touch it. The entire country can't touch
the field. So, not only does it mean
you're not getting you're you're not
getting produce, you're not getting
money, the whole country could starve,
god forbid. So, and and the Torah
specifically here points out says,
Hashem says, do not worry. I will take
care of you on the sixth year. I'll give
you enough for to to take care of your
inm. and then some. And so maybe that we
could say was why the Torah put
specifically by saying Hashem gave this
commandment to Moshe at at Mount
Siita. You know why? Because schmita
encapsulates exactly what the Torah is
all about. The Torah is about like the
goon said about having learning to have
trust in Hashem. And in fact the the
Gmorrah says and the Torah says one of
the reasons that the Jewish people
eventually went into exile galut is
because they did not keep shmita they
stopped keeping shmita and that's why we
went into exile and so you know the
question is always like okay what does
shmita have to do with going into exile
I understand it's more mitzvah but why
is this such a why is that the such a
big deal I think the answer we can give
again is the same thing is that if the
point of the entire Torah was for us to
learn how to trust in Hashem And shmita
is one of the most important ways to do
that. It's it's the one of the
fundamentals. So if we didn't do that,
we didn't put our trust in Hashem. We
didn't we didn't do shmita. So then we
didn't we're we're missing the
fundamental. It's like we're messing up
the entire Torah. So that's why
potentially we can say why why the
Jewish people was ex was were exiled for
not keeping Shmita. And I want to finish
up by saying that potentially the way to
come back, the way to come out of galut,
come out of exile personally and
nationally is by putting our tr learning
how to put our trust in Hashem through
the everyday things in life. Having
trust in talking the small things in
life that come up all the time and and
it's really that even might be one of
the reasons why Hashem puts so many
things in our lives consistently. So we
learn how to trust in him
and really finishes off and he
says
is
als the the sign that the Hashem is
among the Jewish people that dwells the
Hashem's presence is among the Jewish
people is through them
having through them having trust in
Hashem. So if we want Hashem
and his to dwell in our homes. For we
get nationally and Msiah and the and the
redemption just in our own homes. Then
what we need to do is we need to go we
pick up a book on or put on a lecture
about and work on it
daily. Thank you.
