Ask Around Your Shabbos Table

רְ אֵה אָנֹכִי נֹתֵן לִפְנֵיכֶם היּוֹם בְרָכָה וּקְלָלָה

Ask around your Shabbos table: Why does the Torah use the word ראה (see) in the first verse of the parsha when there was nothing physical to see?

Menucha’s Answer: Each person sees ‘his’ physical world that surrounds him. He needs to apply himself to that world in order to fulfill his unique mission in life. If he does, that entire world that he sees will be called a “blessing”. [Based on Nesivos Shalom on Torah, parshas Re’eh]
