The Mitzvah of Having Guests

Communication = Change What can we learn? I listen wanting to grow in spirituality. With poverty, it seems tougher to do. I am hearing that a host should contemplate ways to provide the most in ways of comfort / safety to guests in their home. And how? to think How are you? Place something in their hands.(providing food, medicine, safety -maybe rest) meeting any needs. So what can I walk away with from this message? To always provide at least one comfort to those entering my door, maybe food and drink or just the question How are you...and closely listening and watching (body movement-expression) a response. Also to invite people who believe inside the home, and to always care for those of different value systems - externally. ..especially the beggar I've seen at intersections-maybe a "carepack" thats planned :) rather than money Thanks!

Rabbi Raskin's teaching on Vayeira Thank you Rabbi Raskin for a beautiful shiur! I can't wait until my dining room table and chairs arrive and I can again fulfill the mitzvah of having shabbos guests! Reply
