Description

How lack of trust in each other was involved in the story of the Meraglim, as well as the disasters of the first and second Beit haMikdash. The importance of trust for us as individuals, as well as for society and for our relationship with Hashem. But on the other hand, Torah warns us against trusting human beings, and even against overtrusting the Sanhedrin and the Navi! The resolution: To seek a trusting personality as our default, as מאמינים - as Hashem demonstrates for us.
