Today is Saturday and I went to Chever Torah Class this morning in which we studied the weekly Parsha (Torah portion). This week it dealt with the end of the Book of Leviticus. In summary the portion dealt with the principles of land tenure. The land belongs to God not man. He gives it to man on a long-term lease. However the land must be rested in the 7th year. Six days you shall work but on the 7th day you shall rest. Every 7th year you shall remission of debt. The stranger can eat on the fallow land. On the 7th year times 7 or the 50 th year is the Jubilee year. Question: What is the spiritual benefits of resting? How do you use the space for benefit? 7th year of rest "Sabbath of the Lord"
