Biblical Faith – with Shmuel “Sam” Peak
Chapter 5
Mishnah 22
A Good Eye means benevolent (generous). Avraham would draw travelers in to be guests in his home and he was kind and generous. We see his humble spirit when he refers to himself as dust and ashes while pleading for the lives of the people of Sodom. A meek soul means that one is satisfied with what he has and not desirous of others possessions. Avraham had every right to keep the spoils of war, but he rejected taking anything “from a thread to a shoelace; I will not take anything that is yours”.

What is the reason that: “Whoever influences the masses to become meritorious shall not be the cause of sin?” So that he should not be in Gehinnom (Purgatory) while his disciples are in Gan Eden (Paradise).
What is the reason that “one who influences the masses to sin will not be given the means to repent?” So that he should not be in Gan Eden while his disciples are in Gehinnom.

Moses – singing his song just for us – a song that will never grow old and never let us grow deaf to the Torah of G-d. But not content to be a solo performer, Moses calls upon every one of us to sing our own song. What better way to put our own lives in harmony with G-d’s will and His discerning ear.
