Description
Page 163. Why does the Ramchal begin with zehirus (carefulness) and not with the Torah itself? Torah [knowledge] is allways a gift and we have to make ourselves into vessels that are worthy to receive; our intellect, however, wants to make its own decision and follow its own reasoning, rather than nullifying itself to thousands of years of our traddition. "Torah tzivah lanu Moshe" - we were not born in a vacuum, but have a rich Torah background and mesorah. The proper path in zehirus. Natural zehirus that is coated onto the heart of a Jew and comes from the depth of his neshamah (soul). The conlfict between my intellect and Hashem's Torah.
