Try to say/learn this kapitel a few times during the week.
Most important is to say in on Shabbos.
Have a great week!
Only Yosef (tzaddik yesod olam) is impervious to ayin hara (Esav’s eye of doom).
Rochel (malchus) is most vulnerable to ayin hara.
She was also pregnant with Binyomin (an additional malchus element).
Someone must protect Rochel, and Yosef is the only one who can do it.
Shavua Tov!
Yosef protects Mama Rochel from Esav’s eye of doom.
Why only Yosef, and why only Rochel?
Feedback is appreciated!
Stay tuned till after Shabbos for our approach.
Shabbos Shalom
New and improved!
Let’s focus on kapitel 144.
Some significant points here connecting to our parsha this week:
War and salvation.
Pointless people.
Big talkers.
Successful children.
Healthy flocks.
Security and serenity.
Try to recite this kapitel a few times.
Learning it with Rashi and friends would be superb.
If the Hebrew is insurmountable, I recommend purchasing the Complete Artscroll Tehillim.
It’s five volumes, authored by Rabbi Avrohom Chaim Feuer.
See if you can find the full size. I found only the small size.
The Treasury is also good, just missing 80% of the material.
Feedback is always welcome.
Share your insights and complaints.
Tehillim can also be learned chabura style!
Artscroll Tehillim – Psalms – 5 Volume- Small Size
Rabbi Akiva teaches (based on 31:4) the ideal location for advising is “ba’sadeh”.
How is this better than anywhere else?
Feel free to respond!
I’ll send a suggested answer after Shabbos.
Shabbos Shalom
Check out kapitel 60.
It will enrich your Kislev experience, guaranteed!
Find at least three connections between “Brocho-Gate” and Pesach.
One is given away in Rashi…
Shabbos Shalom!
