One who walks in the ways of the Creator, during the work, called \u201cweekdays,\u201d as in \u201cHe who did not toil on the eve of Shabbat [Sabbath],\u201d \u201csuffices,\u201d meaning settles for feeling the taste of carobs in his work. Yet, through the exertions he makes in that he has no taste in his work, but only that of carobs, and it is known that \u201cIf you labored and did not find, do not believe,\u201d so he wants that through his work and labor, abundance and blessings will be drawn out to the whole world, meaning that all the vitality and attainments of the light of Torah will reach the entire world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the meaning of the words, \u201cThe whole world is nourished by my son Hanina.\u201d Why does he do this? It is because he has the grace of&nbsp;<em>Kedusha<\/em>&nbsp;[holiness]. This is why he is called Hanina, from the word&nbsp;<em>Hen<\/em>&nbsp;[grace]. Therefore, he is rewarded with the state of Shabbat. This is why \u201cHe who did not toil on the eve of Shabbat, what will he eat on Shabbat?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hence, we could ask, If Hanina extended the light of Torah to the whole world, why are they not obtaining the light of the pleasure and only Hanina was rewarded with the state of Shabbat? This is so only because they have no&nbsp;<em>Kelim<\/em>&nbsp;[vessels] to receive. The labor is the&nbsp;<em>Kelim<\/em>&nbsp;in which the lights pour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is about this that they said (<em>Avoda Zarah<\/em>&nbsp;3a), \u201cHe who did not toil on the eve of Shabbat, what will he eat on Shabbat?\u201d Although Hanina extended the light of Shabbat to the whole world, they haven\u2019t the&nbsp;<em>Kelim<\/em>&nbsp;to receive. However, the servant of the Creator himself should walk on the path of not receiving anything, which is called \u201ccarobs.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>February 7, 1955 \u201cThe whole world is nourished by my son Hanina, and Hanina my son suffices himself with 102 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":6246,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"topic":[26],"class_list":["post-12581","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-rabash"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Kabbalah | 481.
