Ask Around Your Shabbos Table

עֲלֵה אֶל הַר הָעֲבָרִּ ים הַזֶה וּרְ אֵה אֶת הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶר נָתַתִּי לִּבְנֵי יִּשְרָאֵל... וְרָאִיתָה אֹתָהּ......

...Go up to this mountain HaAvarim and look at the land that I have given to the children of Israel...and you should see it...

Rashi in Devarim tells us that just merely “seeing the land” was Moshe’s request (i.e., it was one of his requests). And Hashem did fulfill that request (see parsha V’Zos HaBeracha).

Ask Around Your Table: What is so special about just merely “seeing the land”?

Answer: Based on this question, HaRav Avigdor HaLevi Neventhal, shlit’’a explains that the Torah is teaching us the following lesson: A person’s soul is nourished with kedusha, by merely looking at Eretz Yisroel!
