Rashi's Guarantee | Rabbi Elimelech Biderman

Rashi says in Yeshaya 33, where it says in the pasuk, the prophet says, [He who] closes his eyes from seeing evil, closes his eyes, it says in the pasuk, his bread shall be given [him], his water sure (constant). Says Rashi, His bread shall be given, He will not seek bread, for it will be supplied to him from heaven. He won’t have to seek bread, won’t have to look for Parnassah, for he will receive food from heaven. His water sure (constant), there Rashi is speaking about children, The source of his water will not fail, i.e., his offspring will become great, his children will grow, and all his wants will be supplied, everything he needs, to marry off children, everything. Why? He guards his eyes. Closes his eyes from seeing evil. Here, in Eretz Yisroel, a yungerman who lives in Brachfeld, told me that he heard this during Simchas Beis HaSho’eva. He heard that this brings Parnassah, Rashi guarantees Parnassah, a guarantee from Rashi. He said that his Parnassah situation was very terrible. He was a Sofer Stam but he didn’t have Parnassah, and he had great debts. He heard this Rashi. Immediately he made for himself great boundaries in Shmiras Einayim. He took upon himself to be very careful with Shmiras Einayim. The next morning, this was during Chol HaMo’ed Sukkos this year, he received a phone call from a Stam salesman. He was a Sofer Stam. He wrote, he didn’t sell. He received a phone call from a Stam salesman, who asked him if he wanted to join a great Stam business. He said: I have never been in such a business. He told me: Come and join. And he brought him in. And he wanted to make sure that he joins, so he gave him a down payment. He said that the down payment itself was very big. He told us this story two weeks after Sukkos, and he told me that now he had already paid all of his debts. And since then, he has been very successful. He will not seek bread, for it will be supplied to him from heaven. Rashi’s guarantee.
