 th
 man strengthened himself to perform all of the mitzvot that are    אוּה ,הָוְצִמ רַבְדּ םוּשְׁל זָבַּה ןֵכָלְו .תוְֹצִמַּה ןִמ יִנוּיִּח ַח ֹּכ וֹל
 within his ability to observe, HaKadosh Baruch Hu will then help
 him to eventually merit the observance of all of the mitzvot, since    וֹתוֹאֵמ יִנוּיִּחַה ַח ֹּכִמ רֵסָח הֶשֲׂעַנ אוּה יִכּ ,וֹמְצַע תֶא לֵבַּחְמ
 each and every mitzvah has its own unique time to be fulfilled.     ,רָבָדּ לָכּ םֵיּקְַל הֶאוֹרְו ,הָוְצִמ םוּשׁ בֹזֲעַלִּמ ארֵָיַּה לָבֲא .רָבָדּ
 (Because in truth, when HaKadosh Baruch Hu brought the soul
 of this person into this world, He gave man an extensive treasure    לַעֶשׁ ַעוּדָי הֵנִּהְו .וֹנוֹשְׁל ןאָכּ דַע ,וירָָביֵא לָכְבּ םֵלָשׁ הֶיְהִי
 of  613  mitzvot,  namely  our Torah  with  its  613  mitzvot.    But    ,ןֶהָבּ תוֹיוּלְתֶּשׁ הֵשֲׂע תוְֹצִמ הֵבּרְַה שֵׁי רוּבִּדַּה קֶלֵח יֵנְיְנִע
 man must earn the merit to be able to actually fulfill all of these
 mitzvot).     תוֹיִּשׁרָָפּ הָמַּכּ ןֵכְו ,'םיִיַּח ץֵפָח' תַחיִתְפִבּ וּנרְַאֵבֶּשׁ וֹמְכּ
               ,ןֵכּ םִאְו .'ב קֶלֵח ןוֹשָׁלַּה תרַיִמְשִׁבּ ל"ַנַּכְו ,הֶזָבּ תוֹיוּלְתֶּשׁ
 We are obligated to know that just as in this world there are many
 ways by which man can become enriched, so too in regard to the    טרְָפִבּ ןֵנוֹבְּתִמַּהְו .הֶז רוּבֲע וֹבּ אֵצָמִּי תוֹלָבַּחְו םיִעָצְפּ הָמַּכּ
 eternal world there are many remedies that are in the power of   .יַדּ ןֵכּ םַגּ ,דַבְלִבּ הֶז
 HaKadosh Baruch Hu and whomever finds favor in His eyes will
 be given the opportunity to do things through which he will become
 greatly elevated.  The issue of finding favor in Hashem’s eyes is    תדְַכּ  הֶיְהִיֶּשׁ  ,וֹרוּבִּדּ  לַע  טיִבַּמ  וֹניֵאֶשׁ  םָדָאָה  הֵנִּהְו
 dependent on the strength of one’s wholehearted observance of    יִכּ  ,אוּהְו  .הֶטוֹשׁ  תרֵָשְׁמִכּ  וֹמְצַעְבּ  גֵהוֹנ  אוּה  ,הרָוֹתַּה
 the Torah and the resulting pleasure before Hashem Yitbarach.
 Regarding the issue of Lashon Hara, the incident related in the    םיִיִּנוֹציִח ,םירִָדֲח הָמַּכּ וֹל שֵׁיֶּשׁ יוּצָמ הָלוֹדְגּ אָיְנַסְכַאְבּ
 Midrash is well known (Tanna De’Vei Eliyahu Rabbah 17:19):     םיִחרְוֹאָה םֶהָבּ סיִנְכַהְל םיִנָכוּמ םֵהְו ,םיִיִּמיִנְפוּ םיִיִּעָצְמֶאְו
 When Amatziah the Kohein of Beit El informed on the prophet
 Amos to King Yerovam Ben Yoash and told him (Amos 7:10) that    ,ריִשָׁעֶה יִנוֹלְפִלֶּשׁ ,תרֵָשְׁמַּל הֶוַּצְמוּ .וֹתָגרֵדְַמ יִפְל דָחֶא לָכּ
 Amos prophesized  against him and that that Yerovam would die    אלֶֹּשׁ ,ויָלָע ַחיִגְּשַׁהְל דֹאְמ רֵהָזִּי ,יִמיִנְפַּה רדֶֶחַבּ ןֵסְכַאְתִמֶּשׁ
 20
 by the sword and Israel would be exiled from their Land, Yerovam
 responded: “That righteous person (Amos) would never have said    .וֹל ךְירִָצַּה רָבָדּ לָכְבוּ וֹנוֹזְמ תַנָכֲהַבּ ןֵה ,הָמוּאְמ וֹל רַסְחֶי
 any such thing, and if he did say it, he did not say it of his own    ןֵכּ םַגּ ,יִנוֹלְפוּ יִנוֹלְפּ םָשׁ ןֵסְכַאְתִמֶּשׁ ,יִעָצְמֶאָה רדֶֶחַבוּ
 accord but rather he said it because he was commanded to do so
 by HaKadosh Baruch Hu.”  (Because Yeorvam did not believe the    ,ןוֹציִחַה רדֶֶחַבוּ .תוּריִהְז ךְָכּ לָכְבּ אלֹ ךְַא ,ַחיִגְּשַׁהְל ךְירִָצ
 Lashon Hara he heard about Amos) HaKadosh Baruch Hu said:    ַחקֵוֹל ןיֵא םַגְו ,םָשׁ םיִנָלַּה םיִטוּשְׁפַּה םיִשָׁנֲאָל קרַ אוּהֶשׁ
 “This is a generation of idol worshippers and the king himself,
 the leader of the generation is an idol worshipper.  But because he    תרֵָשְׁמַהְו  .תֶטֶעוּמ  הָחָגְּשַׁה  קרַ  הֶיְהִתּ  ,הָניִל  רַכְשׂ  םֶהֵמ
 did not believe the Lashon Hara spoken against Amos, I will place    רדֶֶחַל הָשָׂע תוֹנָכֲהַה לָכֶּשׁ .וֹכְּפֶהְבּ הָשָׂעְו ,הֶטוֹשׁ הָיָה הֶזַּה
 cities under his control that were not conquered by Yehoshua ben
               ןיִכֵה אלֹ טַעְמִכּ יִמיִנְפַּה רדֶֶחַלְו ,יִעָצְמֶאָה רדֶֶחַלְו ןוֹציִחַה
