Torah lesson a place where life's most
difficult questions are answered here
with his spiritual perspective and
insight rabbi megawatts welcome to this
week's Torah lesson this week's Torah
portion is postures like it by each lock
the question of the week is what is the
key to the greatest blessings so in this
week's Torah portion postures for the
east lock we learn about Yakko when he's
traveling back home and he hears that
ace of us out to kill him so he sends
messengers to try to appease his brother
Esau and then he turns for God and he
says famous verse that car 20 min colic
sudden I'm been diminished with all the
kindness that you showed to me and all
the truth you showed to me and he says
keeping Mike Lee about TSE idea because
with my staff I went over the river and
I and Ron she says what I mean the mock
leeandra she gets two interpretations
one is that the only thing I had was a
staff poor I have nothing and look like
how you blessed me the other
interpretation of machli staff is with
the staff I split the way I split the
water which shows a sign of actually
strengthen the connection to God and
greatness but here you find the same
verse has the same word has an
indication of poor only a staff and the
same word mark lee has an occasional
this miquel this staff has tremendous
power so the Rebbe explains what does
that mean why is that so he says that
there's a verse that says keep miss
Puckett's taka that God is sometimes we
can come to garba miss but hey we want
justice or we can come stuck oh god
please help us in other words the Rebbe
explains that we are children of God now
if we are children of God so we should
have everything Walker's with children
of God mere fact we're children of God
God really should give us everything so
we come to beseech God for blessings we
have two choices we can say hey god
you're our Father where your children we
we demand that you take care of us or
you can say you know even though you you
have to give us everything we're coming
as pure charity when a person could ask
Miss bought could demand but
nevertheless doesn't demand then a
person and comes out stuck I'll charity
as the mock me where it's only a staff
then he who will able to achieve the
greatest blessings from God to the
answer the question how can we achieve
the greatest blessings that we reach out
to God even though we can ask God and
demand from God but nevertheless were
humble and we ask God to please be there
for us then we will merit achieve the
greatest blessings
