Mishlei 14:20 - Fair-weather Friends
גַּם לְרֵעֵהוּ יִשָּׂנֵא רָשׁ וְאֹהֲבֵי עָשִׁיר רַבִּים:
Length: 45 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (2/28/24), in our morning Mishlei shiur, we learned yet another full pasuk in one session! It was unclear at first whether this one was about wealth/poverty or love/hate, but it ended up being about the intersection between the two: the effects of a person's success and failure on their relationships. Some meforshim learn that tomorrow's pasuk is connected to this one, so we'll move onto that tomorrow.

This week's Torah content has been sponsored by Jonah Mishaan with appreciation for Rabbi Schneeweiss, who gathers wisdom from various disciplines.
Shlomo Ha'Melech highlights the importance of mental health in Mishlei 18:14: "The spirit of a person sustains him in his illness, but who can lift a broken spirit?" My rebbi, Rabbi Moskowitz zt"l, emphasized that while a person can accomplish much on their own, there comes a point when one should seek professional help. Jonah is a psychotherapist who offers services in person in Upper Manhattan and virtually. For more information, visit his website at mishaanpsychotherapy.com.
