Her Ways Are Pleasant and All Her Paths Are Peace<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

VaEra <\/em>[And I Appeared]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

183) \u201cHer ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.\u201d \u201cHer ways are ways of pleasantness\u201d are the ways of the Torah. Anyone who walks in the ways of Torah, the Creator brings upon him the pleasantness of Divinity, so it would never leave him. \u201cAnd all her paths are peace\u201d are the paths of the Torah, since all the paths of the Torah are peace\u2014peace for him above, peace for him below, peace for him in this world, and peace for him in the next world.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One Who Disputes with Peace<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Korah<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

6) The world stands only on peace. When the Creator created the world, it could not exist until He came and established peace on them, the Sabbath, which is the peace of upper and lower. Then the world persisted. Hence, one who disagrees with peace will be lost from the world.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If They Are at Peace, Judgment Does Not Rule Over Them<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Miketz<\/em> [At the End]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

168) \u201cThus says the Lord, though they are at full strength and likewise many, Even so, they will be cut off and pass away.\u201d When the whole people has peace in it, and no dispute is among them, the Creator has pity on them and the judgment does not govern them. And even though they are idol worshippers, if they are at peace, judgment does not rule over them, as it is written, \u201cJoined idols,\u201d idol worshipping, \u201cEphraim let him alone.\u201d This means that even if one is serving idols, meaning idol worshipping, if they are nonetheless united, \u201cLet him alone.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Closeness of Righteous Increases Peace in the World<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

VaYigash<\/em> [Then Judah Approached]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

61) Happy are the righteous, whose closeness to each other brings peace to the world because they know how to unite the unification and to make nearness, to increase peace in the world. As long as Joseph and Judah were not close to one another, there was no peace. When Joseph and Judah drew close together, peace increased in the world and joy was added above and below while Joseph and Judah were brought closer. All the tribes were together with Joseph, and that closeness increased peace in the world, as it is written, \u201cThen Judah approached him.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

He Who Walks on the Path of Truth<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Miketz<\/em> [At the End]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

186) Rabbi Abba was sitting at the gate of the city of Lod. He saw a man coming and sitting on a protrusion that bulged at the side of the mountain. He was weary from the road and he sat and slept there. At that time, he saw a serpent approaching him, and a varmint came out and killed the serpent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the man woke, he saw the serpent dead in front of him. The man rose and the protrusion he had been sitting on was torn off the mountain and fell to the valley below it. But the man was saved. Had he been late standing up by even a minute, he would have fallen to the valley along with the protrusion and he would have been killed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

187) Rabbi Abba came to him and told him: \u201cTell me, what do you do?\u201d for the Creator brought you these two miracles, saved you from the serpent and from the protrusion that fell. And that was not for nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

188) He told him. \u201cThrough my whole life, never has anyone done evil to me that I did not make peace with him and forgave him. Moreover, if I could not make peace with him, I did not go to my bed before I forgave him and all those who afflicted me, and I did not hold any grudge the whole day for that evil which he had done to me. And I do not suffice for that, but even more, from that day forth, I have tried to do them good.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

189) The deeds of this one are greater than Joseph\u2019s, for with Joseph, the wrong doers were his brothers, and he certainly should have pitied them because of the brotherhood. But what this one did, when he did this with all the people, is greater than Joseph. He is worthy of the Creator bringing him a miracle over a miracle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

190) \u201cHe who walks in integrity walks securely\u201d is a man who walks in the ways of the Torah. \u201cWalks securely\u201d means that the damagers of the world will not be able to harm him. \u201cBut he who perverts his ways will be found out.\u201d Who will be found out? One who has strayed from the path of truth, and seeks to collect from his friend, who wishes to pay him evil for evil, and breaches \u201cThou shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge.\u201d \u201cWill be found out\u201d means that it will be apparent to the eyes of all the litigants, that they will not lose the image of that person, so as to bring him to the place where they will avenge him, an eye for an eye. This is why it is written, \u201cWill be found out.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
