Do You Have Bad Vision?

"Abraham raised his eyes and he saw."  (Genesis 18:2)

Isn't it self-evident that to see forward your eyes need to be raised? 

To truly perceive reality requires special eyes. Abraham's "elevated eyes" represent his clarity of vision that became his raison d'etre.

It's no coincidence that during his great challenges of life (when he is told to uproot his family and later to sacrifice his son) the destination is deliberately obscured. Yet, despite the turmoil and uncertainty, in both instances, Abraham knows precisely in which direction to travel.

The world itself is called "Olam" - which denotes concealment and obscurity.  It's tough to break through the static of life and appreciate the blessings and gifts around us. Yet, the greatness is often not only at our fingertips but in our hands. The key is to raise and elevate our eyes. 

 

 

Shabbat Shalom, Rabbi Daniel Green            For more Short Vorts click here

Roadmap to Prayer (for men & women)

Understanding Cults Through the Eyes of Psychology & Judaism (for men & women)

With Rabbi Yosef Weitz

Registration Required. Contact Rabbi Weitz for more details at (647) 637-5978 or e-mail [email protected].

Each shiur will not only acquaint you with the background of each Halacha but it will also guide you on the study of the classic works of the Chofetz Chaim in his monumental Sefer the Mishnah Berura. Our goal is not just developing you're learning skills in this area of Halacha and awarding you with a certificate for your learning accomplishments, it is a matter of creating  a whole new level of appreciation of  Hashem's Mitzvah of Shabbos; the pillar of Judaism.
