What if you could unearth the real essence of gratitude and align yourself with the very purpose of creation? This episode takes you on a journey of discovery as we delve into the significance of Haqqara Satov or recognizing the good. We examine a fascinating interpretation by Ramban of the Jewish philosophy of gratitude and how it has influenced Jewish law regarding intermarriage with Amunites, Moabites, and Egyptians. Despite their historical injustice, Ramban underscores the importance of remembering the acts of kindness and hospitality Egyptians offered.The beauty of this episode lies in how it challenges you to think about the universe's ultimate reason for existence. Drawing profound insights from Jewish philosophers like Ramchal, we propose that the world was created solely to bestow good. This divine act of gifting goodness comes with a responsibility - to acknowledge and appreciate it. We explore how the act of recognition lies at the heart of Haqqara Satov. It's not merely expressing thanks but genuinely recognizing the good that has been received. You'll leave this episode encouraged to contemplate the goodness you've experienced and, perhaps, realign yourself with the purpose of creation.Support the showJoin The Motivation Congregation WhatsApp community for daily motivational Torah content!---------------- SUBSCRIBE to The Weekly Parsha for an insightful weekly talk on the week's Parsha.
