About this listen

📖 Parshat Behar This Week: Imagine buying land, working it for decades, building your wealth, and then every 50 years, Yovel hits, and it goes back to the original owner. Wait, what? How is that even fair? But that's exactly the Torah's system. The message? You don't really own anything. Everything you have, your land, your wealth, your talents, and your life, is a gift from God. The Yovel is a radical reset, reminding us that nothing truly belongs to us. It's all on loan. This concept is incomprehensible to our Western ownership-obsessed minds, but it's liberating. When you realize you don't own anything, you stop clinging so tightly. You hold it all with open hands. Gratitude replaces entitlement. Shabbat Shalom. 🌾
