3MN DE TORAH POUR COMMENCER LA JOURNÉE - 🙏 IL ATTEND TA DEMANDE

Today is the 3rd of the month, and well , I see that everyone is up early, not just on the 3rd, and I hope this month that is beginning will give us even more and more strength. And why do we need it every single time ? "Ya-teil Elohim," what does Rashi say in this week's Parasha? This phrase that we bless each time before starting a Kiddush, a Brit Milah , a wedding, we love this blessing in the Parasha where Isaac blesses his son : "May God give you," regarding everything you need, both spiritual and material.

Look closely at the difference between the blessing of Esau, who tried to steal it: for him, it was material things first. Here, take it, get it over with! And never forget that material things, in a single day, can lose 10 billion just because of a story about a Chinese woman, boom, the biggest company. That is what material is.

The spiritual, it is first "Ya-teil Elohim," spiritual first and then material, and you won't lack anything either. Why does Rashi say "Ya-teil Elohim," why ...it means may God give to you every single day anew? Every day, we must have the strength to rise, every day we must pray for health , every day we must pray for our livelihood. Why?

Why can't we just have it once, say, on the 1st of the month, we do a day of prayer and God sends everyone everything they need, a box for the whole month? This question is well known; it is in the Talmud, Tractate Yoma, page 76. It is a question from the students of Rabbi Shimon: why doesn't God give us the package at Rosh Hashanah, write us a check, give us everything we need so we can plan the month well? And what did he answer?

"I will tell you a metaphor: there was once a king who had his son far away. How much do you need, the annual budget , tell me for the whole country, to manage all the expenses?""20 million, 10 billion, here, take 10 billion," and the son says, "Goodbye Dad," and he didn't get a phone call for the whole year. So for us, it's the same, we need it every day; He waits for us to ask Him, to beg Him, of course He can give us everything. Of course, everyone, what they have, they can't even imagine what they could have, what they can't have; those are God's calculations.

But what concerns us is that, a little bit like this week's parasha. Many don't understand why we have to make an effort. Jacob could have led as the firstborn too, and he could have received the blessings without taking them like that, but in that case , it would have been so easy, so natural , that we, the Jewish people, wouldn't be here 3,000 years later. So despite the difficulties, despite the fact that he went out, his brother wanted to kill him and the other was poor.

What a story , right? I will finish with the sources . Last year, we talked about this. Because in the parasha, we see that Isaac digs the same wells as his father .

Sometimes he finds water, sometimes he fights, brawling with the Philistines of the time who say the land is theirs, but Isaac doesn't give up and he digs his father's same wells. And we too, even if sometimes the prayer isn't answered, the livelihood, we wait , we dig once more, we say another prayer. And even if it's the same parasha as last year, dig into the study and you will see that you will always find something new; there is always water and that's why we have a gift. The more we advance in time, the more the Torah remains the same thing, the same sources, the same wells.

In technology, everything moves so fast, but on the other hand, there is a risk of losing 10 billion in one day. So let's be proud of everything around us and let's always ask God again and again and again, and that way, we are all the three who rise. Amara shabbat shalom, amara hanina.
