CLD #148

There is no language like The language>Lashon Hakodesh, Ivrit (Hebrew). 
From the beauty of the language itself we see how true the derech of the Torah is! From the letters, gematriyot, words themselves, 70 panim laTorah, phrases, connotations, te'amim, double meanings, diction, syntax, exaggeration, and ALL the other literay devices that exist (and the ones that have not been founded yet) is all in the Torah HaKdosha.
For ex. The form of the letters Gimel and Dalet show how complex the lashon hakodesh is: Gimel, or can be one who does gmilut chasadim is drawn (the non-script version) as a runner and the letter that comes after it is the Dalet. So? What does Dalet mean??!?!?! In tefillah before Ga'al Yisrael, we say "Ozer Dalim." What does that mean? We say Hashem Elokeinu helps the dal (synonym: evion, ani, poor, financially instable)! Dal=Dalet! The Gimel literally chases (because it is drawn like a person running and represents gmilut chesed) after the Dalet (the poor, the dal)!


Another ex. The word "kal" or easy is seen in the word "klalah" or curse. The word Kaved or Heavy is seen in the word Kavod or Respect. What can we learn from this? That it is so easy to snap a curse at someone, it is so easy to get angry, so easy to reach a low point like an animal and give in to our natural desires>one thinks that this is a praise for oneself, but in fact its a klalah! The person who goes through Heavy challenges (Kaved) reaches Kavod, or respect. We all know that from the hard work we receive the huge reward.


B'H May we open our eyes to see that a true Yehudi doesn't follow the easy way of life of the Goyim (with all due respect) that wake up when they choose is good for them and have no heavy responsibilities compared to a Yehudi. This is where we're wrong! This person has no repect whatsoever! The person who goes against the society's "free country" attitude is the one with the real Kavod.


Start thinking, Start being Jewish.
