In Parshas Kedoshim (Vayikra 19:14) we will read the posuk, “Do not curse the deaf man nor place a stumbling block before the blind…” There we learn that [even though the deaf man cannot hear you curse him, and you may think no harm is done,] just as he is alive and you are prohibited to curse him, so may we not curse anyone who is alive. Onkelos renders the word t’kallel not as “curse,” but not to lose or lessen your respect for the judge or his Partner, the Al-mighty, (from the word kal meaning “light.”) The laws of the Torah were created by Hashem to guide our lives and if they say one must give a lender his only blanket, it’s not cruel or unusual punishment. The Gemara (Bava Kama 79b), famously says, “How great is the honor of Man, that because an ox walks by itself but he had to carry the sheep on his shoulder, his repayment is less.”Hashem is concerned with even the honor of a thief -- an indication to us of how concerned and careful we should be with the honor of our fellow man. Several hours later, the plane on which she was to have flown began its descent to its destination, the woman’s reserved seat empty… As the plane descended, there was some turbulence, and the captain told the passengers to make sure their seat belts were securely fastened… and then, the plane… touched down, safely. LESSONS FROM OUR SAGES THROUGH THE AGES FROM THE PAGES R’ Chaim Volozhiner once presided over a Din Torah (Rabbinical court case) in which one of the litigants was a Talmid Chacham we’ll call R’ Berel, and R’ Chaim ruled against him. When we conduct our personal and business lives properly, not as rote or out of a self-generated sense of right or wrong but in fulfillment of Hashem’s commands, that is no different fromthe mitzvos that recall kri’as YamSuf. After R’ Chaim passed away, R’ Berel happened to meet one of the litigants in the case he had judged, who let him in on the secret that R’ Chaim had engaged him and his “adversary” for the mock Din Torah for reasons unknown.
