Is It (Not) Just a Commandment? | Torah 1 (pt3)
from JewishLife101 Hosted by Jewish Life
In the final part of our series, we move beyond the 'benefits' of study to the most profound reason of all. We often think of commandments as tasks given to us by a King, but what if the Torah is actually the very fabric of reality—and by extension, the fabric of you? We explore the Chassidic perspective that because the Torah and its Creator are one, the Torah is the truest version of existence. When you learn, you aren’t just studying an external book; you are engaging with your own Source. We look at the unique bond between a father and a son—how a father will go beyond all limits for his child because he sees that child as an extension of his own self. In the same way, when we recognize that we are an extension of the Torah’s truth, we don't just learn because we 'have to'—we learn because it is our most natural, essential state. This episode concludes our 3-part series on the foundations of Torah study, based on the Chassidic concept of Torah Lishma. Click here to learn more about Torah L’shma. Liked this series?
