Shabbat,
21 Tevet, 5783
Isaiah 27:6 - 28:13; Isaiah 29:22-23 Shimon, the second
son of Jacob and Leah and the progenitor of the Israelite tribe of Shimon,
was born on Tevet 21 (according to another opinion, on Tevet 28), of the year
2194 from creation (1567 BCE), nine years after Jacob's arrival in Charan. Link: More
on Shimon On December 23 (21
Teves), 1690, strong earthquakes rattled the city of Ancona, Italy, causing
numerous structures to collapse and placing its inhabitants in mortal danger.
Miraculously, the Jewish quarter was spared, suffering the collapse of only
one house. In commemoration of this event, the local Jewish community
established that date as a day of celebration and song, while the previous
day—20 Teves—would be marked yearly by fasting and charity (Or Boker,
p. 48a). Link: Is There a Blessing or Jewish Prayer for Earthquakes? Chumash Parshat Shemot, 7th Portion (Exodus 5:1-6:1) Psalms Tanya Likutei Amarim, beginning of Chapter 14 Rambam 3 Chapters, 1 Chapter, Sefer Hamitzvot Hayom Yom Daily Thought Confidence &
Humility True confidence is
best found in those who are truly humble. Moses was the most
humble of all men. Yet he had the confidence to stand before the mightiest
dictator on earth and assert his demands. He had the confidence to stand
before G‑d and listen without losing his composure. He had the confidence,
when necessary, even to argue with G‑d. Yet he considered
himself to be truly nothing. The confidence of
Moses was not confidence in his own self. He had no self. He was but an agent
of Above. Above there is infinite power. Self-confidence is
limited, at best. But if you trust in the One who has sent you to be here and
do what you need to do—that confidence knows no bounds. |
