Once the promised land was settled, every household brought a sample of their first fruits to the Temple every year and thanked Gโd for the land.
But not until all Jews were safe and settled, each on their own plot of land.
Because that is the way the Jewish nation operates: Like brothers and sisters.
Not one of us can feel thoroughly grateful for their own welfare until everyone else is taken care of.
Absolutely true!
There should be many billboards proclaiming this.
Thanks for the reminder

We start with our own family, our wife, our parents, our brothers and sisters. And then our own people.
Act locally and it will resonate globally.

Start to love your neighbours (everyone, all who come across your life daily) as you love yourself (you don't want to get hurt, cursed, spat upon, angered on, want to dress neatly, eating good food.....etc) Reply
Interesting that everyone was included. That's the way that it should be!
