Hoje, dia 25 de Shevat, é o yortzait (aniversário de falecimento) do Rabino Israel Salanter. Entre suas muitas virtudes, o Rabino Israel era extraordinariamente empático com pessoas que estavam passando por dificuldades. A seguinte história é uma ilustração perfeita disto.

Antigamente existiam pessoas que trabalhavam como Maguid. Maguid era um palestrante que viajava para diferentes comunidades e sinagogas e dava palestras baseadas na Torá. Depois, os ouvintes faziam uma coleta para o orador, e assim o Maguid ganhava a vida.

Certa vez um Maguid chegou a uma sinagoga em Kovno (Lituânia) e ??pediu permissão para dar uma palestra. Naquele memento havia lá um grupo de pessoas que se reuniram para estudar juntas, que era a sua prática regular, e disseram ao Maguid que aquele era o horário de estudos deles e que a palestra os interromperia.

O Rabino Salanter estava presente neste momento. Ele se voltou para estas pessoas e disse: "Hilel ensinou: 'Tudo o que for ruim para você, não faça para o seu amigo'. Por que Hilel não disse de maneira positiva: 'O que for bom para você, faça para o seu amigo'? E respondeu: "Muitas vezes, o que é bom para mim é ruim para o meu amigo". Muitas vezes, quando estamos focados em nossos interesses, não conseguimos enxergar que o nosso 'bem' é ruim para outra pessoa. Por isso Hilel nos ensinou: 'Tudo o que for ruim para você, não faça para o seu amigo'".

Rav Israel continuou a explicar: "Ao considerarmos como ficaríamos angustiados se estivéssemos no lugar da outra pessoa, entenderíamos facilmente a coisa certa a fazer. Consideremos como nos sentiríamos se fôssemos este Maguid a quem foi negada a oportunidade de falar. Como vocês iriam alimentar e sustentar suas famílias, que dependem de vocês para o pão de cada dia? Portanto, é nossa obrigação postergar o nosso estudo para que o Maguid possa nos dar a sua palestra e ganhar a sua parnassá".

As observações do Rabino Salanter trazem uma lição poderosa. Elas nos ensinam a sentir a dor do próximo, que talvez não consigamos enxergar quando buscamos o nosso próprio benefício. Se aplicarmos a perspectiva de Hilel – de nos colocarmos 'na pele' de nossos amigos antes de agirmos – aprenderemos a perceber se o "nosso bem" também é bom para os demais. Isso nos inspirará a agir com grande sensibilidade e evitar tropeços na busca pelo nosso "bem"!

 

 

                          Shabat Shalom a Todos!

SF -- Questions on Parashat Mishpatim

Thursday \ January 31 2019 \ 25 Shevat 5779

Join Salant WhatsApp Thought Questions on Parashat Mishpatim The Salant Foundation is presenting questions prepared by the Rosh Yeshiva of Be'ar HaTorah, HaRav Gavriel Yoseph Levi. These questions come to stimulate us to ask straightforward questions that we should naturally ask as we learn the Parasha.  We are not giving the answers in order to stimulate your thoughts to come up with your own answer. Please send your answers to salantorg@gmail.com The Salant Foundation looks forward and appreciates all of your answers, comments, and questions.  B'ezrat Hashem, we will give our answers next week. Question One: One of the seven Mitzvot of B'Nei Noach, is that each nation must establishe civil laws. Yet, we see in the Torah that Hashem taught Klal Yisrael all the civil laws. Yet, since the civil laws are based on logic, why did HaShem see it necessary for Him to give Klal Yisrael the civil laws? Hashem could have given us just the religious laws, and let the Beit Din generate the rational civil laws? Question Two: A person is allowed to rent his house or property, and there is not notion of any wrongdoing, whatsoever. On the other, the Torah forbids us to lend money and charge him interest? What is the difference between renting your house, and "renting" your money? Answer to questions from Parshat Yisro:  1. Answer to question one "why the holiness of Mount Sinai is not eternal?" The Torah wanted to teach us a principle, that the Torah is not dependent on a certain place or time. Rather, in every place and at every time we have the opportunity to study Torah. On the other the dwelling of the Shechinah is dependent on a particular place. If the Shechinah was in every place, there wouldn't be a concept of a House of Hashem. When you have a special place for the dwelling of the Shechinah, then in that special place the Honor of Hashem is revealed.  2. Answer to question two "why don't we do a special Mitzvah to remember the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai?"  The Torah is the central pillar of our lives. Therefore, a layman must dedicate daily time to Torah study, as it says in the Mishneh. Our very learning of Torah must have the same joy that we had at our receiving the Torah at Mount Sinai. Therefore, we don't have a specific Mitzvah to remember the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai,  because the Torah wants to teach us that we need to learn Torah every day and every second, that we are not involved in our livelihood. There is no greater remembrance than our constant dedication to Torah study, and the great joy of Torah study.  Visit the Salant Library L"N R' Yochanon Mordecai ben Ephraim and Moras Esther Leah bas Yehudah Yoseph Refuah Shleimah Yochanon Baruch ben Fruma Ettta Riva bas Henya Zivia bas Raizel Leah Hadassah bas Michal Chana Chava Bas Michal Chanah Chaya Harriet Bat Sophie Lee Mazal Malkah Mollie Bas Sarah Yakir Efraim Ben Rachel Devora Chaya Leah bas Sara Chaya Shaina Chana Bas Itcha Netanel Ilan ben  Shayna Tzipora STAY CONNECTED:

SF - The Yarzeit of Rabbi Yisrael Salanter \ Special Edition

Thursday \ January 31 2019 \ 25 Shevat 5779

Join Salant WhatsApp The yarzeit of Rabbi Yisrael Salanter \ Special Edition  Today, the 25th of Shevat, is the yartzeit of Rabbi Yisrael Salanter. Amongst his many outstanding attributes, Rabbi Yisrael was extraordinarily empathetic of others who were undergoing hardship. The following story about a Maggid, is a perfect illustration of Rav Yisrael's finely tuned sensitivity. In order to understand the story we need to know that a Maggid, was a wandering Jewish preacher. He would travel to diffferent Shuls and communities and give over a Torah based sermon. Afterwards, the listeners would make a collection for the speaker, and this is how the Maggid made a living.  Once, a  Maggid came to a Beit Midrash in Kovno and asked permission to give a sermon. However, there was a group of men in the Beis Midrash who had gathered to learn together, as was their regular practice. They told the Maggid that since they had come to learn together, he could not give his sermon because it would knock out their learning.    Rabbi Salanter was present in the Beis Midrash at this time. He turned to the people who weren't willing to give up their learning and said, "Hillel said, 'Whatever is bad for you, do not do to your friend.'  Why didn't Hillel say in the affirmative, 'Whatever is good for you, you should do for your friend." Rav Yisrael answered, "Many times that which if good for me, is bad for my friend." Yet, since we are focused on our good, we can't see that our good is bad for our friend. Therefore, Hillel tells us, "Whatever is bad for you, do not do to your friend." Rav Yisrael, continued to explain, 'By considering how distressed we would be if we were in our friend's shoes, we will easily understand the right thing to do.  Let us consider how we would feel if we were the Maggid that was denied the chance to speak. How are you going to feed and support your family, who are depending on you for their daily bread?  Therefore, it us our obligation to give up our plan to learn together, so that the Maggid can give us his sermon and make his livelihood." Rabbi Salanter's remarks carry a powerful lesson. It teaches us how to sense the pain of our friend, that we might not be able to see when we are pursuing our own benefit. If we adapt Hillel's perspective of putting ourselves in our friend's shoes before we act, we will learn how to recognize if "our good" will have a negative impact on our friend. This will inspire us to show great sensitivity to others and avoid causing them pain in the pursuit of our "good." Each year on Rav Yisrael's yarzeit, we ask our subscibers to send us names and email addresses of their friends and family members who will be enriched by our daily lessons. We will explain to each new subscriber that a friend recommended that we add them to our subsciber list. If they prefer not to receive, we will show them how to easily "unsubscribe."  Please send in the names and emails of your friends to salantorg@gmail.com Rabbi Yisrael Salanter said, "Whoever encourages others to study Mussar will merit great compassion from HaShem."   Tizke L'Mitzvot!

SF - Caring for Your People \ Parashat Mishpatim

Wednesday \ January 30 2019 \ 24 Shevat 5779

Join Salant WhatsApp Caring for Your People \ Parashat Mishpatim D'var Torah: "When you lend money to My people, to the poor of your people" (Shemot 22:24). A beautiful teaching of our Sages sheds light on this verse, "Let us reflect on how valuable is a good reputation within the community. Even if a person acquires a vast fortune, if he hasn't acquired a good name, he has acquired nothing." If a wealthy person has not acquired a good name, it is most likely due to the fact that he did not dedicate any of his funds to charity or kindness. He didn't realize that HaShem gave him his wealth so that he would act as trustee for the poor and dedicate a portion of the funds in his charge on their behalf. For this reason the verse says, "the poor of your people," implying that those who have the means to help the poor carry the responsbility to take care of those who are less fortunate, i.e., "your people."      Moral: When a father leaves all of his wealth to one of his sons, it is obvious that his intention was to appoint him to distrubute the funds amongst all of his brethren. So too, it is not plausible that HaShem grants wealth to some of His sons, and disregards His other sons. Rather, HaShem grants an extra portion to the wealthy people, so that they will share their wealth with others; and then all of HaShem's sons will be well cared for. Application: If you have the means to give tzadaka or help others with your funds, envision yourself as a trustee for the poor. Sense the responsibity that HaShem gave you to take care of His chidren. Distribute the funds to your favorite charitable causes with compassion and generosity. If you do not currently have the means to help others, trust in HaShem that He will take care of you, for you are His beloved son or daughter.  (Based on the commentary of the Chofetz Chaim)   The Salant Foundation is currently looking for a Shul or community to partner with us in sharing the merit of the unique and important Salant Kollel. There are practical and easy ways (such as adoptakollel.org) to create a special mutual relationship between the Kollel and a Shul or community.  If you think your  shul or community or even workplace might want to  participate in supporting the Salant Kollel, please  contact Rabbi Zvi Miller  at salantorg@gmail.com, and  we'll discuss how to go about implementing your idea.
