532. \u201cAnd you shall eat and be satisfied, and you shall bless the Lord your God for the good land which He has given you.\u201d \u201cAnd you shall eat and be satisfied.\u201d Anyone who eats and does not bless the blessing over the food is called \u201cdestroyer\u201d and \u201crobber,\u201d as it is written, \u201cHe who robs his father or mother, saying, \u2018It is not wrong,\u2019 is a companion to a man who destroys.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
533. Great is the power of the blessing over the food, for it adds the power of the blessing in the company of above. Great is the power of the blessing over the food, for it adds blessing to the work of man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
534. Rabbi Bon and Rabbi Hanina were walking along the way to redeem captives. They came across a village. They slept in a hotel. At midnight, they arose to engage in Torah. The woman over the house got up and lit a candle for them. While they were sitting, the woman sat behind them to hear words of Torah. They looked at her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
535. One said, \u201cMan\u2019s soul is the candle of the Lord, searching all the chambers of the belly. Indeed, man\u2019s soul is the candle of the Lord. Like the candle that shines in the dark, man\u2019s soul shines for the body.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
536. He reiterated and said, \u201cA woman is rewarded with three things: Hallah [Shabbat bread], Nida [abstinence during menstruation], and lighting the candle. In the meantime, he turned his head back and saw that woman crying. Her father got up and sat between them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
537. Rabbi Bon said to him, \u201cWhy is your daughter crying?\u201d He said, \u201cShe was not rewarded with her husband engaging in Torah. He is a twelve-year-old child, and does not even know the blessing over the food, and I cannot teach him.\u201d He said to him, \u201cSwap him with another, and why did you give your daughter to him?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
538. He said, \u201cI did not know him, but because one day, I saw that he jumped down from the attic to listen to a Kadish [sanctification during prayer], I vowed to marry my daughter to him. I went out from the synagogue and gave him my daughter, and did not worry about other things, and did not notice more. And now we find that he does not know a single thing in the Torah, and does not want to learn anything.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
539. Rabbi Bon said to him, \u201cPerhaps he will be rewarded with a son who will teach him much Torah.\u201d In the meantime, that child arose from his bed and jumped over to them, and sat among them. Rabbi Bon looked at him and said, \u201cI see in his face that a great light of Torah will come out from this lad.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
