Parshas Naso (5765)
by Mordechai Dolinsky
The Medrash in our sedra (7:4) relates that the magnificent miracle that the “mon” was completely absorbed in their bodies was met with ridicule and those guilty of this were punished.
It is shocking that such a superb blessing could be so twisted and unappreciated. This is an enlightening lesson for us to the dangers of how in our own lives one can act with animosity and resentment towards many of Hashem’s blessings and extraordinary gifts instead of with great joy and gratitude.
This is an important part of the Shavuos celebration; appreciating the great gift of Torah.
Have a wonderful Shabbos and a joyous, meaningful Chag Shavuos.
