               in the likeness of Elokim.”  Please see that reference where we                                                                         ד"סב
               explained this based on its source in the Sifri.

               Based on my understanding, that which Torah writes about, the
               doings of HaKadosh Baruch Hu, that every tree (in Gan Eden)
               was beautiful to look at and delicious to eat, is in order to hint
               to  us  that  by  virtue  of  our  observance  of  mitzvot,  beautiful
               plantings will be planted and our actions will be just like those
               (of Hashem’s).
               The statement of the pasuk is well known (Shemot 15:2) “this is
                                                           nd
               my Gd and I will extol His beauty.”  (Please see the 2  explanation
               of Rashi).  Regarding this statement, our sages of blessed memory                                 Honoring my dear brother
               have said (Gemara Shabbat 133b): Beautify your mitzvot, build                                         David Tebele
               for yourselves a beautiful Sukkah and take a beautiful Lulav. So
               too all the mitzvot require that they be beautiful externally and
               internally as is appropriate to them, meaning, the intent behind                                י"נ הזילא ןב דוד יכדרמ
               them should be for the sake of our Creator, as Chazal say (Gemara
               Nedarim 62a), that things (mitzvot) should be done for the sake
               of the Creator.  By virtue of this (of beautifying the mitzvot) our                                Wishing him good health
               plantings will be similar to those of HaKadosh Baruch Hu.  This                                     long life and happiness
               concept is alluded to in the Torah (Bamidbar 24:5) “How beautiful
               are your tents, Yaakov, etc., like Aloe planted by Hashem in Gan
               Eden,” as Rashi explains in his commentary there).
                                                                                                             Ruth Jemal and family
               Therefore,  everyone  who  is  conscientious  should  take  care  to
               accept the responsibility of disciplining his speech, to guard his
               mouth and his tongue and not defile his lips with words that are
               forbidden.   They  must  set  aside  a  small  amount  of  time  each
               day and reflect on whether or not his speech was appropriately
               disciplined.
               The Gemara Chulin (105a) alludes to this concept as follows:
               “Shemuel said: I am like vinegar the son of wine relative to my
               father.  My father used to review his assets twice daily and I
               review them only once daily. It would be very difficult \ strained
               to explain this statement in its plain meaning and to categorize
               him (Shemuel) as “vinegar,” the son of “wine,” because he was
               not so meticulous in his deeds and reflect on them that perhaps
