Anyone who has been rewarded with engaging in the Torah and satiating his soul with it, it is written, \u201cAnd good news from a faraway land.\u201d The Creator declares several benefits for him, to benefit him in this world and in the next world, as it is written, \u201cAnd good news.\u201d From which place is it good? \u201cFrom a faraway land,\u201d for initially, the Creator was far from him, for he was hateful of him at first, as it is written, \u201cAnd the earth shall rise up against him.\u201d From that place he is greeted, as it is written, \u201cFrom a faraway land.\u201d It is also written, \u201cFrom afar the Lord appeared unto me.
