פרשת עקב
Parshas Eikev
פן תאכל ושבעת ורם לבבך ושכחת… (עקב ח:יב-יד)
Lest you will eat and be satisfied… and your heart will become haughty, and you will forget Hashem…
The holy Reb Zusha zt”l said: To properly serve Hashem, we ask of Hashem to first bestow plenty of livelihood upon a person. This is how this passuk can be explained: פן תאכל ושבעת ורם לבבך when you will have הרחבת הדעת (peace of mind) by having plenty to eat, then “ושכחת” – you will find Hashem (the word “ושכחת” in the Aramaic language is “to find”).
