DVAR TORAH

         

 

Feel pleasure when you pay off debts.

"AND [Avraham] SPOKE TO EFRON IN THE EARS OF THE PEOPLE OF THE LAND, SAYING, IF YOU WILL BUT LISTEN TO ME, I WANT TO GIVE THE MONEY FOR THE LAND, TAKE IT FROM ME AND I WILL BURY MY DEAD THERE." (Braishis 23:13)

     Rashi comments on the word nasati (which implies that Avraham already gave the money although he merely said that he wanted to give it), Avraham said to Efron, "The money is completely ready for you. I wish that I had already given it to you."

     The Torah contrasts Avraham's attitude towards money with Efron's. Efron had a strong desire for money and was very determent to get a high price for his land even though he spoke of his generosity. Avraham, on the other hand, was eager to pay his debt before it was actually due. He did not want to keep money that was not his even for a very short while. Therefore, he said, "I wish I had already given it."

     There are some people who keep procrastinating when it comes to paying back debts or paying for an item they have bought. They are basically honest and would never think of cheating anyone. However, they find it extremely difficult to part with their money. Therefore, they keep pushing off returning money that is due to others. Learn from Avraham to feel pleasure and joy when you pay off a debt.

        A young man in Bnai Brak used to type the handwritten manuscripts of Rabbi Yaakov Yisroel Kanievsky to prepare them for publication in the Kehilos Yaakov series. Late one winter night, the typist heard a knock on his door and found the Steipler standing there. The young man was taken aback - did he make some serious typing error? "I came to pay you for today's work," said the Steipler. "You left the papers at my house when I wasn't home, so I came now." "But I specifically told you when I accepted the job that it was not necessary for you to pay me right away."

      “True," said the Steipler, "you wanted to be sure that I wouldn't transgress the prohibition against delaying payment to a worker overnight; but what about the positive commandment I have of paying a worker on the same day?”

Have a Shabbat Shalom!
