Segulot for the Weekly Torah Portions

Segulot for the Weekly Torah Portions

The holy Zohar says: “He [the Almighty] looked into the Torah and created worlds through it.” (Zohar on Toldot) The Torah is the order and blueprint of creation, and the Almighty ensures that everything follows His plan. In Mishlei (3:18), King Solomon adds: “She is a tree of life to those who grasp her, and those who support her are happy.” Accordingly, many of the Sages teach that the Almighty, as always, “created the remedy before the illness.” Throughout the ages, the Jewish people have drawn strength from the Torah, for the Torah is the root and source of everything.
