Articles and Letters / ‘Torah Supporters’ – 150

Our Sages said, ‘whatever a person ‘trims off’ his efforts and gives to Torah learners, he will benefit from in this world financially, and spiritually in the next world. Furthermore, the person learning is considered on his name, and he has a part in his learning. The verse states, ‘Be happy Zevulun when departing, and Yisachar in your tent’. Even though Yisachar was older than Zevulun, since Zevulun travelled to support Yisachar learning, the verse places Zevulun ahead of Yisachar.
