Description
Page 161. Is there a ladder to get to Torah, or is Torah the ladder itself? There is no end to learning Torah, but where is the beginning and how do we start the right way? What is the purpose of teaching a young child when he does not yet understand? The yesod (foundation) of beginning to learn Torah is not "understanding," it's believing the parents and teachers. The Steipler Gaon's view on beginning Torah learning. Protecting the kedushah (holiness) of Shabbos with simple emunah (belief) rather than with knowledge. So much technology that we don't even have to be Shabbos-dig anymore. "Addah lo yedah" - until we no longer know. Everything begins with the emunah in Torah, before we ever get to the steps of the Mesilas Yesharim. Just a little bit of mesiras nefesh (effort)!
