On the other hand, regarding the <i>Man<\/i> It is written: &quot;Who made you eat <i>Man<\/i> to grieve you,&quot; that is, the <i>Man<\/i> It did not provide true satisfaction to those who consumed it, because it came in a fixed quantity, enough for only one day, and &quot;it is not the same to have bread in your basket as to not have bread in your basket.&quot; In other words, the affliction consisted of the doubt of whether the next day the bread would come down. <i>Man<\/i> Or not. In turn, even though the <i>Man<\/i> He had every taste in the world, however, &quot;it&#039;s not the same for someone who can see and eats as for someone who can&#039;t see and eats&quot; - those who ate the <i>Man<\/i> They didn&#039;t see the specific foods that had the tastes they felt on their palate.<\/p>\n<p>Here we find a contradiction: wealth and poverty reigned in the same meal. This same meal, which on the one hand was utter perfection and possessed every flavor, generated in the consumer a feeling of distress and dissatisfaction. The truth is that there is no contradiction at all, but rather two sides of the same coin.<\/p>\n<p>He <i>Man<\/i>, In its very essence, it was something extraordinary, a Divine, limitless bread. Precisely for this reason, when it descended into the limited, material world, the world was unable to absorb it and express its limitless characteristics in material definitions. The carnal eye cannot see infinite tastes, and therefore the <i>Man<\/i> It generated a lack of satisfaction. In order to receive the <i>Man<\/i> As it was in itself, unlimited, men had to rid themselves of their human limitations.<\/p>\n<p>Feeding on <i>Man<\/i> In the desert, it constituted the preparation to fulfill the Torah and its precepts in the Land of Israel, giving the strength to overcome the two types of difficulties that man faces: the test of wealth and the test of poverty.<\/p>\n<p>Wealth harbors a danger: it can lead to the belief that one&#039;s own strength and power are responsible for success. The challenge of experiencing poverty is to attain the conviction that &quot;no evil comes from above,&quot; and that even suffering comes from the Most High, who is absolute goodness.<\/p>\n<p>He <i>Man<\/i> It offers us a lesson in both directions. The rich learn from <i>Man<\/i>, that wealth comes from Above, and is not the fruit of human effort. The poor learn from <i>Man<\/i>, that the Divine flow, as it comes from Above, consists of extraordinary goodness, only that it is not always perceived as such.<br \/>\nThe path to receiving the blessings that come from Above is to completely free oneself from the feeling of &quot;my strength and the power of my hand,&quot; and to rely entirely on the Most High. When a person frees themselves from personal worries and believes in God, who is the Source of goodness and well-being, then they become worthy of seeing the blessing in the work of their hands and of receiving Supreme Goodness in the earthly world as well.<\/p>\n<p>The same applies on the spiritual plane: the path to receiving the light of the Torah, called &quot;bread from Heaven,&quot; and especially the &quot;inner part of the Torah&quot; (<i>Pnimiut HaTor\u00e1<\/i>), &quot;which has no waste whatsoever&quot; - it is through this that man becomes an &quot;empty vessel,&quot; abstracted from his personal preconceptions. He becomes worthy of absorbing the infinite light of the Torah.<\/p>\n<p>Adapted from www.jabad.org.ar<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"El Man (la man\u00e1) que ca\u00eda del cielo en el desierto para el pueblo de Israel, era un pan del Cielo\", un alimento espiritual Divino cuyas caracter\u00edsticas eran sobrenaturales - pose\u00eda todos los sabores del mundo &amp;quot y no ten\u00eda desperdicio\".\"Por otro lado, sobre el Man est\u00e1 escrito: \"Quien te hizo comer Man para afligirte\",&hellip;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tuviaserber.com\/en\/riqueza-y-pobreza\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Read More \u00bb<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Wealth and poverty<\/span><\/a>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5952,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[84],"tags":[1002,953,950,971,991,993,942],"series":[],"class_list":["post-1116","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ekev","tag-bendicion","tag-comida","tag-di-s","tag-hombre","tag-pan","tag-precepto","tag-tora"],"episode_featured_image":"https:\/\/tuviaserber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Riqueza-y-pobreza.jpg","episode_player_image":"https:\/\/tuviaserber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/avatar1400.jpeg","download_link":"","player_link":"","audio_player":false,"episode_data":{"playerMode":"light","subscribeUrls":{"castbox":{"key":"castbox","url":"","label":"CastBox","class":"castbox","icon":"castbox.png"},"rss":{"key":"rss","url":"","label":"RSS","class":"rss","icon":"rss.png"},"spotify":{"key":"spotify","url":"","label":"Spotify","class":"spotify","icon":"spotify.png"}},"rssFeedUrl":"https:\/\/tuviaserber.com\/en\/feed\/podcast\/rabino-tuvia-serber","embedCode":"<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"ssAVCMzr9B\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tuviaserber.com\/en\/riqueza-y-pobreza\/\">Riqueza y pobreza<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" src=\"https:\/\/tuviaserber.com\/en\/riqueza-y-pobreza\/embed\/#?secret=ssAVCMzr9B\" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" title=\"&#8220;Riqueza y pobreza&#8221; &#8212; Rabino Tuvia Serber\" data-secret=\"ssAVCMzr9B\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\"><\/iframe><script>\n\/*!
