Manage episode 402127567 series 3320921
כְּתִיב מַתַּן אָדָם יַרְחִיב לוֹ וְלִפְנֵי גְדוֹלִים יַנְחֶנּוּ
It is written: “A man’s gift grants him amplitude, and leads him before great men.”
יֵשׁ לְךָ אֲנָשִׁים שֶׁהֵם גְּדוֹלֵי הַשֵּׁם בְּחָכְמָתָם אוֹ בְּעָשְׁרָם
Some people are renowned for their wisdom or their wealth.
אֲבָל מַתַּן אָדָם
However, “a man’s gift” —
כְּשֶׁהָאָדָם נוֹתֵן אֶת הָאָדָם שֶׁלּוֹ בְּאֵיזֶה הִתְעַסְּקוּת בְּהַחְזָקַת הַדָּת
his giving of himself to an activity that strengthens the practice of Yiddishkeit —
הִנֵה לֹא זוּ בִּלְבַד כִּי יַרְחִיב לוֹ
not only elicits ample blessings,
אֶלָּא עוֹד זֹאת כִּי לִפְנֵי גְדוֹלִים יַנְחֶנּוּ
but also “leads him before great men.”
