We continue with Bitachon linked ideas from Rav Chaim Kanievsky’s commentary on Tehilim. In chapter 148, which we are saying each day, David Hamelech is wanting in the creations with the heavens as well as the earth to praise Hashem. He starts off off with הַ֥לְלוּ־יָ֨הּ ׀ הַֽלְל֣וּ אֶת־יְ֭הֹוָה מִן־הַשָּׁמַ֑יִם הַֽ֝לְל֗וּהוּ בַּמְּרוֹמִֽים׃ Praise Hashem with the heavens, from significant higher than every one of the angels, each of the hosts, the sun, the moon, all the celestial beings, The heavens higher earlier mentioned, the drinking water above the heavens… And what's their praise? יְֽ֭הַלְלוּ אֶת־שֵׁ֣ם ה׳ כִּ֤י ה֖וּא צִוָּ֣ה וְנִבְרָֽאוּ׃ וַיַּעֲמִידֵ֣ם לָעַ֣ד לְעוֹלָ֑ם חׇק־נָ֝תַ֗ן וְלֹ֣א יַעֲבֽוֹר׃ That God commanded and established them, and He put them up there without end. He designed a set rule, that shall under no circumstances change. That's what we remark when per month within the moon, that there is the cycle with the Solar, the cycle in the moon. All the things that is inside the heavens is basically static . Then he goes on to praise Hashem around the earth. Let's praise Hashem from your deaths, the fireplace, the hail, the snow, the smoke, the winds, the mountains plus the valleys, the trees, the animals, the crawling creatures, the birds, the kings, the ministers, youthful boys and young women, old men and lads. Then it states, יְהַלְל֤וּ ׀ אֶת־שֵׁ֬ם ה׳ כִּֽי־נִשְׂגָּ֣ב שְׁמ֣וֹ לְבַדּ֑וֹ ה֝וֹד֗וֹ עַל־אֶ֥רֶץ וְשָׁמָֽיִם His title is earlier mentioned on your own, His glory is about the heavens and also the earth. Rav Chaim factors out that there’s a variance in how we look at the heavens and earth. Concerning the heavens, it states, God commanded and developed them, but regarding the earth, it states His title is exalted forever… Why the real difference? He says it’s because the development of your heavens was a one particular time creation. The Sunlight is created once, the moon is developed at the time. Obviously, it says that God continues to pump Electricity into generation, and that He can make (not manufactured ) The good luminaries, but in our eyes, they're static. They do not transform. Alternatively, precisely what is down about the earth is constantly renewed and refreshed. There are actually new horses, new bears, new bees…things are continually modifying. Every single of your merchandise inside the heaven was designed with a particular goal in addition to a finite sum, but over the earth points are regularly remaining recreated and rejuvenated, because this is where everything transpires.

We carry on with some Bitachon views from Rav Chaim Kanievsky’s commentary on Tehilim. In chapter 37, pasuk 21, David Hamelech claims, לֹוֶ֣ה רָ֭שָׁע וְלֹ֣א יְשַׁלֵּ֑ם The wicked man or woman borrows and does not pay back again . That does not necessarily mean that if someone borrows funds and for some purpose cannot spend it back, he’s wicked. Rav Yehezkiel Levenstein clarifies it means that the person, at time of borrowing the financial loan, experienced no strategy to pay back it back. This doesn't suggest that he borrowed that has a prepare, and it did not workout as a result of some unpredicted expense like if anyone received sick, or dropped his position. This really is referring into a person who borrowed The cash without having decide to repay it at some time of borrowing. It’s a Halacha you can't borrow dollars if you don't know how you are going to spend it back again. Rav Kanievsky writes that somebody when questioned the Chazon Ish, “ Could you borrow money with no prepare, depending on Bitachon- Counting on Hashem which i'll get the money when I need it?” There are lots of tales like that with wonderful rabbis, such as Ponovezher Rav and others, who borrowed income with no strategy after which you can by some means, miraculously, any person showed up and gave them revenue, just in time. So will you be authorized to do that? The Chazon Ish gave an unbelievable respond to. He states, “ Sure, but only if you're ready to lend someone dollars within the thought of bitachon.” You can't use bitachon selectively, and say, “ I will use bitachon to borrow money, but I won't use bitachon to lend money.” It needs to be genuine. We’ve said before that there's a principle called Bitachon Mezuyaf/copyright Bitachon , that's fake bitachon. You will be employing it like a Device. It isn't really actual. You might be not likely relying on God. From time to time you happen to be just lazy and use bitachon as being a coverup. So how can we know when bitachon is real? The Chazon Ish has an entire piece on this. You will find men and women that, of course sing the bitachon music when all the things's going suitable, but then all of a sudden, somebody opens a store throughout the road from theirs, and all their bitachon goes out the window. It was not real. The Chazon Ish is declaring you know if it’s real when a person knocks at your doorway and states, “ I do not definitely Have a very plan but make sure you lend me dollars.” Will you be now in a position to invoke that Bitachon that that you are going to have the a refund immediately after this guy borrows The cash from you?
With the very first take a look at, Hashem sought to assure Avraham: “I could make of you an awesome nation; I'll bless you and make your name fantastic, and you shall be a blessing” (

God dwelled on them as they used the time to ponder and convey Him down. And we far too will have to shell out time thinking about, as we outlined yesterday, for the reason that if one isn't going to spend time prior to praying, then, even though he is praying, he's not really existing. Hacham BenSion gave a mashal for this: Consider that you've an important enterprise meeting, and each of the essential buyers are sitting down throughout the desk. Then you walk in the meeting, set a picture of on your own down, say, “ Right here’s my picture,” and wander out. You are not current. When someone prays and bitachon they are not targeted, It is like they set their photo down, but they don't seem to be really there. The Rambam talks concerning this in Moreh Nevuchim , section a few, chapter fifty one, where by he suggests, “It is feasible that anyone can pray Together with the motion of his lips, together with his confront versus the wall, but he's considering his own personalized demands and what he needs to do,” which can be what the majority of people do. When you close up your eyes, all of a sudden your thoughts becomes flooded with most of the things which you might want to do. And he states, on that person, we are saying an exceptionally, potent or negative verse, קָר֤וֹב אַתָּה֙ בְּפִיהֶ֔ם וְרָח֖וֹק מִכִּלְיוֹתֵיהֶֽם You might be near to God using your mouths therefore you’re considerably , (pretty much) from your kidne ys (which refers in your inner feelings). Your internal thoughts are probably not connected to Hashem. This is often The issue of prayer. Prayer is named Avodah/ service. What's the company of God? I constantly thought the service of God is Whilst you're praying, you're serving God. However the Avudarham, in his commentary on prayer, estimates Rav Abraham, the son of Rabi Yitzhak, the Av Bet Din , and among the Rishonim . He claims that prayer is named support , along with the work of that support is 1-to remove the thoughts from your mind which have been causing you to be preoccupied in worldly issues, and a pair of-to subjugate your views on your prayer. So the real task of prayer will not be essentially when you're praying, it's the pre-video game exhibit that you've To place your endeavours into. And when you place the proper endeavours in beforehand, then your prayer goes easily. To recap, we’ve mentioned two explanations of Ashrei Yoshvei Betecha. 1- As we mentioned yesterday, this means Fortunate are those that wait around in God's house. two- Lucky are the ones that develop into God's property. AAnd These are completed the identical way: by weighing, considering and considering before you decide to pray. Have a wonderful working day.

David Hamelech obtained out of his mattress and was absolutely healthful when he gave over and labored on that architecture. Rav Chaim Kanievsky provides that David Hamelech stated this Mizmor when he handed about the scroll With all the architectural designs. It was his Thanks for obtaining away from his sickness. With that context, we can realize why It is called Mizmor Shir Hanukat HaBayit L’David . He wrote it for them to sing at the particular Hanukat Habayit, which he wasn't going to make it to. But he spoke about his sickness because what obtained him out was the fact that he required To do that. In addition, a pasuk During this chapter says, זמרו לה׳ חסידיו /Sing to Hashem, the pious types, והודו לזכר קדשו and thank Him. First sing, then thank Him. Most time It really is thank initially and after that sing, like it states, ט֗וֹב לְהֹד֥וֹת לה׳ וּלְזַמֵּ֖ר לְשִׁמְךָ֣ עֶלְיֽוֹן׃ “It is really great to thanks, and Then you really sing a song.” Mainly because it states, Shiru Lo, Zamru Lo/sing music. Generally, very first you thank Hashem for what took place and You then sing the song. But in this article he states the pious kinds, they sing the track even just before it occurs. David Hamelech was previously singing the tracks of his salvation, ahead of it transpired. And he gives a variety of explanations to get away from his sickness. “ Can I thanks when I'm just dust? (which implies, Can I thank You Once i'm lifeless?) ” Then he claims, “ Can I say above Your real truth?” These causes refers to the two things that somebody is right here in the world for: to thank Hashem also to state His Oneness. David was utilizing these being a motive to tug him from his sickness. This is important. When someone is in difficulties, anyone can honestly and sincerely say, “ Hashem, get me from difficulties due to the fact I still Have got a mission to complete. I nevertheless have anything to perform. Get me out of the. I should praise You. I would like to meet my mission.” This was David Hamelech’s key of Mizmor Shir Hanukat Habayit L’David. Yet again, we can easily only understand this with Rav Chaim Kanievsky’s background and context (according to an unfamiliar Midrash, which I looked for. It seems to be in an obscure Midrash, rather than from the regular Midrashim). Have an exquisite day.
