Deuteronomy 6:13 "You shall fear the L-rd, your G-d"

Many people fear nuclear energy because of the damage it can cause to our environment and our health.

However, we can also benefit from nuclear energy if we use it with care.

As scientists become more and more aware of the great power of nuclear energy, they try to make use of this tremendous energy with utmost precaution and care.

HaShem is the greatest power in the world. He commanded us to observe the laws of the Torah.

The more and more we become aware of HaShem and His greatness through study of the Torah, the more we realize how important it is to fulfill His will.

This Positive Mitzvah teaches us to fear HaShem and know that if we keep the Mitzvot in the Torah, we will be rewarded.

If we choose to disobey the Mitzvot, we will be punished.

Fear out of punishment?
Great comment ... but should we fear G-d our of fear of punishment? I always thought we should fear G-d out of love. Just like one fears to disappoint one's parents.
