SF -- Speak With Sweet Words

"Naftali is a deer sent forth, who delivers beautiful sayings." (Bereisheis 49:21). This verse alludes to a parallel verse in Song of Songs (4:11), "The sweetness of your words drips from your lips, like honey and milk it lies under your tongue." Naftali's words were sweeter than honey and a honeycomb. 


It very well could be that the kings of Israel would choose people from the tribe of Naftali as representatives of the king to speak to other kings. The "Naftalites" spoke so beautifully that they would successfully accomplish their mission, "for the king is a friend to one who speaks with graciousness" (Proverbs 22:11). 


They were also swift on their feet as a deer bounding over the meadow and skipping over the mountains. 


Their essential virtue was their mastery of language. They articulated their words clearly and elegantly, like a master diplomat.  


Kabbalistically, "a deer sent forth" refers to the Holy Divine Presence. She is "sent forth" from Him to communicate to the terrestrial beings because her sweet words are needed to inspire them to emulate Her ways.


Speak with sweet words that uplift, encourage, and inspire others.


(Based on the Ramad Valli, Parashat Vayachie)
