Preparing for Judgment: The Power of Overlooking Offense
Parashat Ki Titzeh: The Perfect Words
In the beginning of this week’s parasha, Ki Titzeh, the Torah speaks about the אשת יפת תואר– the beautiful captive of war – and Rashi writes, לא דיברה תורה אלא כנגד יצר הרע – the Torah here is speaking on behalf of the evil inclination. Meaning, if Hashem did not allow the soldier to marry this woman, he would have done it anyway, and therefore permission was granted.
Hashem can give us the perfect words to say in any situation we find ourselves in. It is up to us to ask Him for His help.
We have to do our part by accepting the responsibility to help others and then pray to Hashem to give us the siyata d’Shamaya that we need to actually help them.
Shabbat Shalom!!
