תָּנָא דְּבֵי רַבִּי יִשְׁמָעֵאל<\/a> בְּנִי אִם פָּגַע בְּךָ מְנֻוּוֹל זֶה מׇשְׁכֵהוּ לְבֵית הַמִּדְרָשׁ אִם אֶבֶן הוּא נִימּוֹחַ וְאִם בַּרְזֶל הוּא מִתְפּוֹצֵץ שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר הֲלוֹא כֹה דְבָרִי כָּאֵשׁ נְאֻם ה’ וּכְפַטִּישׁ יְפֹצֵץ סָלַע אִם אֶבֶן הוּא נִימּוֹחַ שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר הוֹי כׇּל צָמֵא לְכוּ לַמַּיִם וְאוֹמֵר אֲבָנִים שָׁחֲקוּ מַיִם <\/span><\/p>\n

A Sage from the school of Rabbi Yishmael<\/a> taught: My son, if this wretched one,<\/b> the evil inclination, encounters you, pull it into the study hall,<\/b> i.e., go and study Torah. If it is a stone<\/b> it will melt, and if it is iron,<\/b> it will break, as it is stated<\/b> with regard to the Torah: “Is not My word like fire, says the Lord, and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?”<\/b> (<\/a>Jeremiah 23:29<\/a>). Just as a stone shatters a hammer, so too one can overcome his evil inclination, which is as strong as iron, through Torah study. With regard to the second part of the statement: If it is a stone<\/b> it will melt,<\/b> this is as it is stated<\/b> with regard to the Torah: “Ho, everyone who thirsts, come for water”<\/b> (<\/a>Isaiah 55:1<\/a>), and it states: “The water wears the stones”<\/b> (<\/a>Job 14:19<\/a>), indicating that water is stronger than stone.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sama-l<\/a> – ס-מ-א-ל =131<\/p>\n

The minister of the Other Side<\/a><\/p>\n

ענוה = Humility = 131<\/p>\n

Humility cancels the influence of the other-side<\/a><\/p>\n

Lilith – ל-י-ל-י-ת = 480 (His wife)<\/p>\n

When the evil couple are together,
\n480 + 131 = 611
\nThey have greater power over us.<\/p>\n

The Torah is the cure.<\/strong><\/p>\n

תורה = Torah = 611<\/p>\n

When we study the Torah, we connect to the force that disables the other-side<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
