It tells us which the scorpion states, Tov Hashem LKol God is sweet to all V’Rachamav Al Kol Maasav And it has mercy on all His creations Why does the scorpion sing that? What’s the link? Rav Chaim Kanievsky explains that the scorpion is often a horrible mazik / destroyer, capable of inflicting death with one bite. And therefore, when you see a scorpion, you crush it and kill it. That you are even permitted to eliminate a scorpion on Shabbat, due to Hazard. Moreover, if a scorpion is coming to bite you, you operate away, at any place in prayer. For this reason, God did a kindness Together with the scorpion, and that is hunted by all. It presents start to a lot of, many offspring 1 time (the Yerushalmi states it offers delivery to 70 at any given time). And they don't come out off eggs. They are really born Are living, in one one brood with quite a few, many toddlers. It is because Hashem won't want the species for being worn out. So even on a thing as damaging being a scorpion, God has mercy. In another quotation from Ashrei , that's taken through the animal kingdom, it states, סוֹמֵ֣ךְ ה׳ לְכׇל־הַנֹּפְלִ֑ים וְ֝זוֹקֵ֗ף לְכׇל־הַכְּפוּפִֽים God takes treatment of the ones that tumble, and picks up Individuals and that happen to be hunched around. That track was sung through the snake. The snake was cursed. He was the biggest Nofel . His legs have been chopped off. With regards to the snake, it suggests, “ You shall go with your abdomen.” Besides, God did a kindness towards the snake, that because of his curse, which was that Filth was can be his meals, anywhere he goes, his sustenance is there.

In his sefer, the Ben Ish Chai ( Parashas Nasso ), provides even more insights about the number 15 and its connection to shalom : · It is the amount of text in Birkas Kohanim, which culminates in a blessing of shalom . · Also, he clarifies, daily bitachon a hand has fourteen joints, a few on Every single on the 4 fingers and two over the thumb. With the hand to stand for shalom, it requires yet another component. Consequently, Chazal instructed us that when we come up with a berachah over a cup of wine, we must always maintain the cup within the palm of your hand; During this place, it is called the Kos shel Berachah, the cup of blessing. The palm becomes the hand’s fifteenth part, Hence symbolizing shalom . · He connects this concept to the Chazal ( Berachos 64a) “Talmidei chachamim marbim shalom, Torah scholars increase peace.” It is because the rabbis have amplified the instances for utilizing a kos shel berachah. These include things like Kiddush on Shabbos and Yom Tov, Havdalah , Birkas HaMazon , weddings, bris milah, along with the evening of Pesach. These are typically all periods in which we put the kos inside our palm, contacting into assistance the fifteenth component of our hand, As a result symbolizing the Identify of Shalom . · In the course of the six weekdays, we wash for bread twice a day, twelve periods in all. On Shabbos, we have three meals, which brings the week’s overall to fifteen. Shabbos is on a daily basis of peace due to fifteenth meal, Seudas Shelishis, which provides shalom . Additionally, the Ben Ish Chai teaches that Tu b’Shevat is the most opportune time for you to pray for Arba Minim, the Four Species we bless for the duration of Succos. As we figured out within our dialogue on Succos, the 4 species symbolize unity One of the 4 kinds of Jewish people. Why do we pray with regards to these 4 species on Tu b’Shevat? The rabbis explain that if we think about the trees on Tu B’Shvat, we see that they are bare. Tu b’Shevat marks the day on which, according to the Gemara , the sap starts off jogging in the tree. Then, on Rosh Chodesh Nissan, we could start off making Birkas Ilanos, the blessing we say upon looking at the tree’s buds start to blossom. The seasons progress right up until eventually, we get there at Succos, once we harvest the fruit. Hence, the development towards Succos commences on Tu b’Shevat, whenever we pray for the mandatory shalom of your Shivtei Kah, which last but not least expresses by itself over the Pageant of Succos with the Arba Minim. Shevat would be the thirty day period, and Tu b’Shevat the working day, uniquely primed for our efforts to foster the middah of shalom and ahavas Yisrael.
