Why Does God Keep Saying “It Was Good”? | Rabbi Blum Anchel

Shalom. When we receive the Torah, we receive many secrets on how to be successful in this world and the next, materially and spiritually. And of course, the closer it is to the beginning of the Torah, the more it's a foundation and the more important it is. So, let's take a look. When it says "Hakadosh Baruch Hu says that they was good." So, every single day was good. And in the end he says "Everything was good. Whatever I made was good." Why did Hakadosh Baruch Hu tell us that it was good? I guess we'll find out if it's good. And why is it repeated so many times? As a matter of fact, one day was missed, I had to repeat it twice the next day. So, why all of this repetition? We know that every letter is important. So, obviously, this repetition of "tov" of good is very, very important. And I think it means that we have to be optimistic. Very important to approach life with optimism. As a matter of fact, if somebody is a pessimist, so in Eiyov it says "Va'asher yagurti yavo li." As a matter of fact, pessimism can cause a negative thing to happen, God forbid. So, we have to be optimistic. After every Chumash we say "Chazak." Right? What Why are we saying "Chazak?" Does that mean you should do more push-ups? Or "Chazak" means you should have more confidence that everything's going to be good. In the haftorah of "Zot HaBracha," so we it's uh Yehoshua is told "Rak chazak v'amatz." Be strong and persevere. In other words, there's a certain amount of confidence and optimism that is necessary for success in this world. So, Hakadosh Baruch Hu is telling us "Listen, everything is good. Just be an optimist and look forward to the good and the good is going to to happen." And in that zechus that we have confidence that Hakadosh Baruch Hu is going to help us and that everything is good, Hakadosh Baruch Hu should send all of us refuah shleimah, parnassah tovah, shalom bayis, nachas, hatzlacha b'limud haTorah, yeshu'os, nechamah, refuah shleimah, and everything that we need. Our soldiers in Eretz Yisrael should be safe. Eretz Yisrael should be safe. And all the Jews around the world should be safe. Thank you.
