Shem Olam / Ch. 10 – 107

Every day we ask Hashem, ‘enlighten our eyes with your Torah’, that we should learn the whole Torah and remember it in the next world, so we won’t be utterly embarrassed when asked, ‘stand up and display what you read and what you learned’. A person should know that the humiliation will not be momentary, but will last forever and ever, and every time something is learned that he did not learn in his lifetime it will increase his shame more. So we ask that Hashem should teach us all the Torah in this world so we will not suffer forever in the next.
