Here's a beautiful lesson from the holy language of Hebrew! The root of the word for "give" in Hebrew is "natan" נתן which is a palindrome; it reads the same backwards as forwards. The essence of giving is that what we give, we get back in some way. While many assume that their time or money will be lost forever if shared, Judaism teaches the opposite; that we stand to personally gain when we give to others. Join Meir Panim, an incredible Israel non-profit, in giving meals to hungry children and Holocaust survivors throughout the Land of Israel, and reap the blessings that will enter your life!
