And may Hashem give you of the dew of the heavens and the fatness of the earth... (27:28)
Giving Tzedakah and Teaching Others to Give: more than once. Couldn’t He just give all that is needed at one time?
Rashi states: “May Hashem give you: May He give and come back and give more.”
He answers by quoting the pasuk in Mishlei (11:24): “There are those who distribute and add more.” He explains this to mean that the more one gives to
Sefer Divrei Yisroel asks why Hashem would need to give tzedakah, the more money is added to him from Shomayim. Accordingly, Rashi is saying that Hashem will give money, and if the person uses that for tzedakah, Hashem will give him more, and the cycle of giving and receiving will continue.
The same concept applies to Torah. The Mishnah says (Avos 2:8): “If you learn a lot of Torah, don’t consider it to be goodness for yourself.” The Medrash Shmuel explains that “goodness” refers to Torah. The Mishnah is saying that if one learns a lot of Torah, he should not think that the Torah is “for himself.” He should not think that it is his alone. Rather, he must use it to teach others. In other words, he should continue the cycle of receiving and then giving to others, and then receiving more.
