Parshas   Chayei   Sarah  By   Rabbi   Shmuel   Gluck:    When Soro died Avrohom was forced to purchase the land on which she would be buried. When  one  reads  the  Parsha,  it  appears  as  if  Avrohom  deliberately  made  the  purchase  a  public scene,  by  s  peaking  t  o  t  he  e  nĕre  c  ity.  W   hy  d   id  A   vrohom  d   o  t  hat?      The  Malbim  explains  that  Avrohom  was  teaching  the  B’nei  Cheis  a  lesson.  At  that  ĕme,  most  people  believed  that  death  was  the  end.  There  was  no  Neshama  or  Olam  Habo.  With  such  an  aħtude,  the  goal of burial was for the dignity of those sĕll living. It didn’t maĥer where, or how,  people  w   ere  b   uried,  a  s  l ong  a  s  t  hey  w   ere  t  aken  o   ut  o   f  t  he  w   ay  o   f  t  he  l iving.     Avrohom  taught  them  about  Kovod  Hames,  the  dignity  of  the  deceased.  This  introduced  them  to  the  Neshama,  the  next  world,  and  the  concept  of  reward  and  punishment.  There  are  two  lessons  p   eople  s  hould  e  xtract  f  rom  t  his.     1)   All  people  are  teachers.  They  may  not  teach  in  front  of  a  blackboard,  but  they  are  sĕll  teachers.  Teaching  in  front  of  a  class  is  o├en  boring.  Speeches  don’t  usually  teach  people;  real  life  incidents  do.  Instead  of  puħng  people  “to  sleep”,  real  life  lessons  intrigue  them,  and  the  message  will  be  more  readily  etched  in  their memory. Avrohom taught them, but did it without  their  b   eing  a  ware  o   f  i t.      Parents  and  Mechanchim  should  take  advantage  of   teaching  opportunities  that  arise  during  their  l ives,  b   ecause  t  hese  w   ill  h   ave  t  he  g  reatest  c  hance  o   f  b   eing  a  ccepted.     2)   People aren’t always in the mood to teach.  Nevertheless, when the opportunity seems to be  a  once  in  a  lifeĕme,  they  have  a  responsibility  to  teach.  At  those  ĕmes,  people  should,  to  the  degree  that  they  can,  place  their  emoĕons  aside,  and  teach,  while  they’re  experiencing,  the  events  of  their lives. Avrohom saw a once in a lifeĕme opportunity to teach a life lesson, despite  his  p   ersonal  l oss.    The   author   can   be   contacted   at  s  [email protected]
