The Attainment of Wisdom
"Not everyone who engages in business becomes wise." (Avos 2:19)
A person who wants to become wise is advised to help the community. Attending to various aspects of the community, such as helping the poor, strengthening the education, and visiting the sick, sharpens his mind and broadens his understanding of life.
Lesson: When a person strives to help his neighbors, HaShem blesses him with additional wisdom to enable him to succeed in his efforts to improve the life of his associates and friends.
App: Receive the blessing of wisdom from Hashem by actively helping your community and its members.
