Weekly Parasha
Beyond Hishtadlut: Relying on Salvation from the Source
Parashat Mishpatim: Hashem Is The Master
In the beginning of this week's parsha, Mishpatim, we read about the man who gets sold as a slave due to his thievery. The Torah says he should work for his master for six years and then go free, but if he wants to stay after the six years his master has to bore a hole through his ear, which is a type of punishment. What did the slave do to warrant that punishment?
Hashem wants us to recognize that He and only He gives us our money. We never have to do anything wrong to get it. In fact, the more we sacrifice to do what's right, the more Hashem will show us that He's the One taking care of us.
Hashem controls not only how much money we earn, but the way we earn it as well. Our job is to be honest and trustworthy and make a Kiddush Hashem at every opportunity.
Shabbat Shalom!
