Description

Wanting is not inherently wrong...It's only when wanting is driven by jealousy that it becomes a fault.Two of the Aseret HaDibrot are noteworthy in that they are mitzvot relating not to action but to thought and awareness... The Ten Commandments are bookended by commands that address our minds, hearts and intentions, not our behavior. Judaism teaches that a person may not contemplate or desire that which he may not attain... Beis Halevi emphasizes that if you are a genuine ba'al bitachon...there is nothing other than He. Nothing happens without Him. Then you know that all you have is all you need.
