We proceed with hiddushim of Bitachon from Rav Chaim Kanievsky on Tehilim. In chapter sixty six, pasuk 3, David Hamelech says, אִמְר֣וּ לֵ֭אלֹהִים מַה־נּוֹרָ֣א מַעֲשֶׂ֑יךָ בְּרֹ֥ב עֻ֝זְּךָ֗ יְֽכַחֲשׁ֖וּ לְךָ֣ אֹיְבֶֽיךָ׃ We'll say to God, ‘How brilliant are Your acts and also your good toughness. Your enemies will deny they at any time sinned against You.’ They can notice how robust You are plus they’ll deny every thing after they’re put on trial. They'll try to deny every thing because they'll know they are going to be punished. That is The straightforward clarification. Rav Chaim Kanievsky provides rates a Midrash Raba in Esther, ten,fifteen where it suggests that ‘ How wonderful is God,’ means “ How magnificent are Your ways that you just do to humble the enemies within a most wondrous way ? People who are supposed to be killed will bring about the Other people to generally be killed. Those people who are speculated to be hung will cause their hangers for being hung. People that ended up pushed in The ocean will wind up resulting in the ones that pushed them to go in The ocean. Those that were burnt will bring about the Other folks for being burnt. And people who be thrown for lions, they trigger the Other individuals to be thrown into the lions.” Exactly what does that suggest? Rav Chaim Kanievsky explains that in historical past, we see that once the enemies on the Jews try to destroy them, the incredibly location which they made an effort to wipe out them with bounces back again on them. -Among the list of 1st situations of this was Moshe Rabbenu. It claims that he referred to as his son Eliezer to remind himself that God saved him through the sword of Paroah. Exactly what does that indicate?They wished to eliminate Moshe as it was noted to Paroah that he killed an Egyptian taskmaster, but when the executioner hit Moshe Rabbenu’s neck together with his sword, God made a miracle that turned Moshe’s neck into marble, as well as knife bounced again and killed the executioner. -An illustration of Those that want to hold is going to be hung, is Haman. He ready the massive pole to hold Mordechai on, but in its place, he was hung on it. - Those who are drowning men and women from the ocean refers to the Egyptians that begun off by drowning the Jewish young children.

In his sefer, the Ben Ish Chai ( Parashas Nasso ), features further insights about the selection fifteen and its link to shalom : · It is the quantity of terms in Birkas Kohanim, which culminates within a blessing of shalom . · In addition, he clarifies, a hand has fourteen joints, 3 on Each individual in the four fingers and two on the thumb. For your hand to stand for shalom, it desires another part. Therefore, Chazal instructed us that once we create a berachah over a cup of wine, we must always hold the cup inside the palm of the hand; In this particular position, it truly is known as the Kos shel Berachah, the cup of blessing. The palm results in being the hand’s fifteenth part, Hence symbolizing shalom . · He connects this concept into the Chazal ( Berachos 64a) “Talmidei chachamim marbim shalom, Torah Students raise peace.” This is due to the rabbis have improved the occasions for utilizing a kos shel berachah. These involve Kiddush on Shabbos and Yom Tov, Havdalah , Birkas HaMazon , weddings, bris milah, and the night of Pesach. They are all periods in which we location the kos within our palm, contacting into service the fifteenth part of our hand, Therefore symbolizing the Title of Shalom . · Over the six weekdays, we clean for bread twice every day, twelve moments in all. On Shabbos, We've 3 meals, which delivers the week’s total to fifteen. Shabbos is on a daily basis of peace due to fifteenth meal, Seudas Shelishis, which brings shalom . Additionally, the Ben Ish Chai teaches that Tu b’Shevat is easily the most opportune time and energy to pray for Arba Minim, the Four Species we bless for the duration of Succos. As we realized in our discussion on Succos, the four species symbolize unity among the 4 forms of Jewish folks. Why do we pray regarding these four species on Tu b’Shevat? The rabbis demonstrate that if we consider the trees on Tu B’Shvat, we see that they're bare. Tu b’Shevat marks the day on which, based on the Gemara , the sap begins functioning within the tree. Then, on Rosh Chodesh Nissan, we could start creating Birkas Ilanos, the blessing we say on seeing the tree’s buds begin to blossom. The seasons progress till finally, we get there at Succos, whenever we harvest the fruit. As a result, the development towards Succos starts on Tu b’Shevat, whenever we pray for the mandatory shalom with the Shivtei Kah, which lastly expresses by itself about the Pageant of Succos Together with the Arba Minim. Shevat is definitely the thirty day period, and Tu b’Shevat the working day, uniquely primed for our initiatives to foster the middah of shalom and ahavas Yisrael.
” וְשֶׁב־שָׁ֑ם וַעֲשֵׂה־שָׁ֣ם מִזְבֵּ֔חַ And Sit there And make an altar there. The Seforno asks, what are we including with those two terms- ‘( And) sit there ?’ The Seforno answers that Hashem was telling Yaakov Avinu this principle with the pious Gentlemen of outdated, as he was about to create an altar, Which’s what daily bitachon our prayer is right now; it’s a substitute for the sacrifices or offerings over the altar. Hashem was educating you could't just dive into that giving. You should sit and contemplate. So This really is an historical thought. Folks currently look to Japanese cultures for meditation and mindfulness. But everything which is superior is found in our Torah. That's this concept of Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha. You won't have to sit there along with your legs crossed and a turban on. You may sit together with your legs straight along with your tefilin on. The purpose is identical: Concentrate . Distinct your thoughts on the litter before you decide to pray. One more supply for this concept is located in the Yalkut Shemoni, Shemuel ב It suggests that David Hamelech says, “I would not pray to God till I stood continue to and calmed down. And then I'd pray.” Because it says in Shemuel ב (seven,18) וַיָּבֹא֙ הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ דָּוִ֔ד וַיֵּ֖שֶׁב לִפְנֵ֣י ה׳ “ King David arrived, and he sat in front of God,” He sat , and after he sat and had kavana , then he began to pray. So this is one area we see within the greats of our earlier: Yaakov Avinu, David Hamelech… These are educating us this essential concept of Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha/ Lucky are those that just sit and contemplate before they pray and crystal clear their minds in the litter. And once more, This can be brought down in Shulchan Aruch ( Or HaChaim chapter ninety eight) This isn't just for Hasidim HaRishonim. He states, this might be essentially the most tricky detail for men and women, “ Get rid of all of the feelings which have been preoccupying you, till your feelings along with your kavana are pure.” Then you can start praying. That is for that regular man or woman. The Hasidim HaRishonim would devote an hour , and they would reach large concentrations. We are just requesting a number of moments of Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha. Have a wonderful day.

Folks are often seeking various ways to strengthen their Bitachon, as well as Chafetz Chaim offers us advice regarding how to accomplish that. He states that it’s our job should be to reinforce our Bitachon. Given that the pasuk in Mishleh states, קַוֵּ֥ה לה׳ וְיֹ֣שַֽׁע לָֽךְ׃ Kaveh L’Hashem V’Yoshah Lach/ Place your hope in Hashem has He'll produce you His information for strengthening Bitachon as follows: Return on your life and constantly ponder: How many years Have you ever lived until finally now? What number of many years have gone by? And with God's kindness, there was not a day that glided by (I hope for everybody examining this) that you did not have food stuff to take in, drinking water to consume, clothing, and a place to live . Baruch Hashem, we are not homeless. That is some thing to ponder. Ponder the Hessed of Hashem. Hashem tells us that we are alleged to try to remember the several years that we used in the Midbar , and Rabbenu Yonah says this isn't almost the decades that we invested from the Midbar . It’s also regarding the many years that we invest in this environment, dealing with daily life's worries, and each of the Terrifying things that materialize. Every person has their scares, regardless of whether medical, economical, or household-associated. We’ve all experienced them, and Baruch Hashem, we've gotten through them. We're continue to listed here, and we are nevertheless alive. So, based on my previous, why am I worried about tomorrow? We don't know the amount of extra many years We'll Are living, and we can assume that if He helped us until eventually now, He’ll proceed helping us. We have talked about ahead of, with the Chatam Sofer, that occasionally anyone should appear back again at his existence. As you become old, you begin to check out more connections. Much more factors start off generating sense when you look again on things that, many years ago, appeared horrible. For instance from my very own lifetime, I figured out inside a Yeshiva known as Be’er Yaakov, underneath Rav Wolbe, but within a calendar year of my arrival, Rav Wolbe chose to go away the yeshiva.
