A desert is open and ownerless \u2013 our minds must be open to receive and without foreign growth that will impede the Torah from taking root.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a><\/a>Being like a desert also implies that we must be prepared to live simply and sometimes sacrifice physical comforts to devote ourselves to Torah study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Others suggest that just like a desert is modest and unassuming, humility is a prerequisite for success in Torah study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason the Torah was given in the wilderness is that the Torah itself can be compared to a wilderness. Just as a wilderness belongs to everyone and has no owner, the Torah belongs to all who study it. Hashem didn\u2019t wait until the Israelites came to the land of Israel to give them the Torah in their own land. The desert does not belong to the Jewish people, and the Torah was given there because its message, while directed primarily to Israel, is really universal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s interesting that the Torah portion where we first read about the revelation of the Torah at Mt. Sinai is named after Moses\u2019 father-in-law Jethro. He came from outside the nation of Israel to embrace the Torah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And on the holiday of Shavuot, which marks the revelation of the Torah at Mt. Sinai, we read the story of Ruth from Moab. Like Jethro, she as well, was drawn to the God of Israel and His Torah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Door Rabbijn Michael Skobac<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/verse%20from%20tanach\/\">Volg de link voor meer \"Verzen uit Tenach\".<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/michael.skobac\">Meer van rabbijn Michael Skobac<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a9 Copyright, alle rechten voorbehouden.
