Parashat Naso: Why All The Repetition
At the end of this week’s parasha Naso, the Torah goes into great detail regarding the donations that the Nasi’im brought to inaugurate the Mishkan. And as we know, each Nasi brought the exact same donation and the Torah repeated each one of them, twelve times, one for each Nasi. Many mefarshim offer explanations as to why the Torah has all this repetition.
The Shomer Emunim writes, if we would know how valuable it is to honestly believe that every single thing that takes place in our lives comes directly from Hashem, our hearts would ignite with endless excitement. Furthermore, the pasuk says, ה' צילך – that Hashem is our shadow. And the Baal Shem Tov explained this to mean that Hashem acts towards us corresponding to the way we act towards Him. If a person says each time that something happens that it was from Hashem, then Hashem will deal with him with extra hashgacha pratit. He will be able to feel Hashem’s presence more and he will get more Heavenly help.
When someone becomes a person who is fully ma’amin in Hashem’s constant hashgacha, he will never get angry, he will never have animosity towards anyone, he will save himself from countless averot and he will get a mitzvah aseh each time he believes in Hashem’s hashgacha, based on the pasuk, אנכי ה' אלוקיך אשר הוצאתיך מארץ מצרים.
Shabbat Shalom!
