We continue with Rabbenu Avraham ben HaRambam's levels of Bitachon. The third level, which has many nuances to it, is, in his words, when someone relies on Hashem to get what he needs, מאמין בזאת/and he believes this, בוודאות—with conviction, ובלי ספיקות/without any doubts. That's a very high level. He says that מעלת בטחון שלישית זו, לא ישיגוה רוב בני אדם/ most people won't reach that level. Shedding more light on this level of Bitachon, he adds, הנעלה ונישגבה שבמעלות הבטחון/this is the highest and most elevated level. ולא בנקל תושג/ And it's not easy to attain. An example of this, he says, is found in the Mishnah in Masechet Berachot , where we see that Rabbi Chanina ben Dosa would pray for people who were sick. And he would say, " This one is going to live, and this one is going to die. " They asked, " How do you know? " He replied, " If my prayers come out clearly, I know he's going to live. If not, then not." Rabbenu Avraham gives this as an example of someone who had a Vadai/he knew for sure. In other words he felt that if his prayers came out right, that was an indication of his Bitachon. He goes on: ומהיות שבעלי המעלה הזאת בטוחים בהשגת מבקשם/these people are guaranteed in receiving what they seek. Not because they are relying on their righteousness, but rather because they rely on Hashem's Hessed, as it says: ואני בחסדך בטחתי/I rely on Your kindness. Now , I'm not quoting every word of his, and I'm taking some things out of context, but it's important to know that such a level exists. There is a concept that I can rely on Hashem with certainty and receive what I seek. However, he clearly says that this is not for everybody—it takes a lot of hard work. But it does exist and we need to know that. Are we Rabbi Chanina ben Dosa? Obviously not. Rabbi Chanina ben Dosa is known for En Od Milevado. He's the one who the witch's daughter cast a spell on, and he said, "You can't touch me. It says En Od Milevado. " Rav Chaim Volozhin brings this down in his sefer also says it's not something for all times, and it's not easy—but it exists. So we must know this concept exists. Another example he gives is about Hillel HaZaken. The Gemara in Berachot 60A tells that Hillel HaZaken was walking on the road and heard a cry, and said, "I am certain this is not coming from my house." They bring a pasuk in Tehilim in: משמועה רעה לא יירא/he's not afraid of bad news. Why ? נכון לבו בטוח בה—because his heart is steadfast; he relies on Hashem. The Gaon of Vilna explains that this is one of the sources for this level of Bitachon. It's not so easy, and this cannot be overstated. Some people hear this concept and say, " You know what? I relied on Hashem, I really believed in Him, and I didn't get what I wanted!" But that level is not easily reached. The people he gives as examples are very, very great people—Hillel HaZaken and Rabbi Chanina ben Dosa! It's like any other great level. Yes it's a great level to be able to learn Torah for ten hours straight, but not everyone can do it. Some people can, some people can't. Some can learn four hours, some can learn two hours. It's not all or nothing. There could be a moment in time that you feel it, and then it fades. As much as you have it—that's how much you get it. Again, let's return to Rav Chaim Volozhin's En Od Milevado rule, where he says: To the extent that you believe there is nothing else but Hashem, all other forces will be annulled. It's not an all-or-nothing concept. Even within this level of relying on Hashem with certainty, it comes and goes. Things fluctuate. Rav Chaim Volozhin discusses this regarding the high level of learning Torah Lishma , where it says: מתוך שלא לשמה בא לשמה/from doing something not for God's sake, you eventually come to do it for Hashem's sake. He says it could be that you have it for one moment, and not for another. So we work on it, we try to reach it, we aspire to it. But we understand that it's not so easy, and it's not for everybody all the time. Still, we must know that this level exists, and that we can aspire to it on some level. The main point is to realize that ultimately, Hashem can do anything. Hashem is reliable if you rely on Him. Are you at that level? Only Hashem knows. I hope this sheds a little clarity on this concept that constantly comes up.

it's only a short chapter

For a 10% discount on Rabbi David Sutton's new book A Daily Dose of Perek Shira click the link below https://www.artscroll.com/Books/9781422644584.html Welcome to Daily Bitachon . We are quoting from the sefer HaMaspik L'Ovdeh Hashem from Rabbenu Avraham, son of the Rambam. He tells us there are two types of people that are lacking in Bitachon. One of them is the fellow that נואש האדם ממבוקשו/ has given up hope, יאוש /despaired on what he's looking for. ואיננו מצפה עוד להשיגו/and he's no longer hoping. The word ציפוי shares the shoresh with הר הצופים, Mount Scopus - looking from afar . So this fellow ואיננו מצפ ה /doesn't even see it on the horizon. It's just not coming. He really gave up hope. Suppose a fellow wants to buy a house or start a new business. He has a parnassa need, but he is נואש /he despairs , he gives up hope. He's no longer looking out on the horizon for a deal or opportunity to come his way, to somehow allow him to afford that house or make that business deal that he's waiting for. Rabbenu Avraham says this fellow that despairs from his parnasa and is no longer looking forward to getting it, נואש מן הפרנסה, ואינו מצפה עוד להשיגו, he is no longer hoping or yearning for it to come . ראוי לגנאי. This man is worthy of being disgraced. על שנתייאש מרחמי הבורא / because he has despaired of God's mercy. Now hold on. Who said I have to have God's mercy? He says, למרות שהוא מצווה על ההיפך הגמור/He's been commanded on the exact opposite. He's been commanded never to give hope. It's a command. As David Hamelech said, קוה אל ה ׳ /hope to Hashem. חזק ויאמץ לבך/ strengthen and make your heart courageous. וקוה אל ה/ and hope to Hashem That, says Rabbenu Avraham, is a command not to give up hope. So how dare you give up hope ? Furthermore, another pasuk in Tehilim say, יחל ישראל אל ה/The Jewish people should have יחול (which is another term for hope). מעתה ועד עולם/ forever . That means you're supposed to have hope forever. And Hoshea says, קוה אל אלהיך תמיד/Hope to your God constantly , and there are many more pesukim of the like. To recap, Rabbenu Avraham Ben Rambam says giving up hope is not just wrong- He uses the words, I'm sorry to say, ראוי לגנאי/ it's disgraceful . And the Sefer HaIkarim , fourth essay, chapter 49, quotes the entire pasuk in Hoshea which says ואתה באלהיך תשוב/return to your God, חסד ומשפט שמר/keep acts of kindness and justice וקוה אל אלהיך תמיד/and hope to your God constantly. Says the Sefer HaIkarim- התקוה דבר הכרחי אל המאמין/ Hope is an essential concept to the believer, כשמירת חסד ומשפט, no less than keeping kindness or justice, או יותר, and possibly even more than that. So if a guy is not Baal Hessed , you'd say that's not good. Or if he's not a בעל משפט /he's not straight, you'd think, Ooh, that's terrible. But that guy that gave up hope on success? You'd think, So what? But no. Lack of hope is a big problem. The Sefer HaIkarim further on in that same chapter says, כי התקוה והתוחלת לה' יתברך/hoping to Hashem, דבר יותר מעולה is greater מכל התהלות than all the praises שאפשר שישבח אדם להשם יתברך/More than any other praise one can do is hoping to Hashem. That's the biggest praise. I think we've proven the point that a Jew is not allowed to give up hope. It's not just that hoping to Hashem is an option, it's a must . You're never allowed to give up hope. Wonder of wonders.

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 1 minutesSynopsis: This Wednesday evening (6/11/25), in our last Tehilim shiur of the 2024-2025 season, we ended up doing a chaotically orderly experimental Chumash exploration instead of Tehilim. If you've ever looked at English translations of the siddur, you may have noticed that the word "Ashrei" is translated differently by different people in different contexts. Tonight, we conducted a survey of the various sources at our disposal to see if we might be able to get at "the real meaning." Our analysis focused on the first instance (or instances) of Ashrei in the Chumash, and we went through a ton of meforshim, classifying each of their interpretations. Did we arrive at a conclusion? Not exactly, but we DID walk away with a set of findings, some old and some new.-----מקורות:תהלים א:א; פד:ה-ו; קמד:טו; קיט:א-בBDBArtscrollKorenRabbi Lord Jonathan SacksRobert AlterJPS (1985)Everett FoxKlein Dictionaryמנחם בן סרוקר' יונה אבן ג'אנח - ספר השורשיםרד"ק - ספר השורשיםבראשית ל:יגתרגום אונקלוספשיטתארס"ג תפסירר' יהודה אבן בלעםרשב"םאברבנאלספורנור' נ"ה וויזלר' י"ש ריגייוהכתב והקבלהשד"לר' ש"ר הירשמלבי"םנצי"בר' דוד צבי הופמןרש"י - תהלים א:א-----Summer is almost here, and I'm planning to level up my Substack game.

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 1 minuteSynopsis: Tonight (6/4/25),  in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we started and finished (?) an extremely short perek about an unfortunately relevant topic: How should we approach Hashem when we, the Jewish people, are held in contempt by the nations of the world in our exile? Since this perek only had four pesukim, we managed to conduct a full analysis and arrive at some beautiful and practical ideas. We'll see if we want to continue our analysis next week or take up a different topic.-----מקורות:תהלים קכגרש"י - דברים ג:כגמצודת ציון/דודרד"קמאירי-----The Torah content from now through Isru Chag Shavuos is sponsored by Rabbi Chaim and Sara Weiss in honor of the yahrzeit of our beloved rebbi, Rabbi Morton Moskowitz zt"l (on the 28th of Iyyar).

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 57 minutesSynopsis: Tonight (5/28/25),  in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we concluded our experimental learn-through of Sforno and R' Elia di Nola on our perek. We began by clarifying Sforno's nuanced take on Torah u'Mada, then explored his view of the role Moshiach will play in educating humanity. We wrapped up with a summary of the perek's purpose, the flow of the four Bnei Korach maskilim we've studied over the past few months, and an operational definition of what a maskil is. This three-part series may not have been our typical Tehilim fare, but I certainly found it interesting, and I hope you did too!-----מקורות:תהלים פרק מהספורנור' אליה די נולהשבת דף קמה עמוד ב - קמו עמוד א-----The Torah content from now through Isru Chag Shavuos is sponsored by Rabbi Chaim and Sara Weiss in honor of the yahrzeit of our beloved rebbi, Rabbi Morton Moskowitz zt"l (on the 28th of Iyyar).

After a recap and a re-pitch of the perek, we continued on, making past the pivot point into the next section. It was ... interesting! We definitely gained some ideas about how to engage in debate, as well as a unique model of Torah u'Mada that I've never seen before, but which resonates with me. Next time, we'll get into the Moshiach stuff and aim to wrap up the perek.-----מקורות:תהלים פרק מהרמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר שופטים, הלכות מלכים ומלחמות יב:ד-השם ספר המדע: הלכות תשובה ט:גספורנור' אליה די נולה-----The Torah content from now through Isru Chag Shavuos is sponsored by Rabbi Chaim and Sara Weiss in honor of the yahrzeit of our beloved rebbi, Rabbi Morton Moskowitz zt"l (on the 28th of Iyyar).

This week, we had the honor of sitting down with Ayelet Samerano, mother of hostage Yonatan Samerano. Ayelet opened her heart and shared with us the essence of her son—creative, ambitious, hilarious, charming, the life of the party, and deeply talented.She also spoke candidly about life since October 7th: the pain, the strength it takes to keep going, and the deep faith that's been carrying her through. Her connection to Hashem, the signs she sees, and the stories she tells will move you, inspire you, and stay with you.Please daven for Yonatan Mordechai Ben Ayelet and say chapter 23 of Tehilim. Follow @bringyontihome on Instagram suchagoodcall@gmail.com @suchagoodcall on instagram
