Story of Rest and Refreshment

Posted on Saturday, 26, December, 2009Sunday, 17, January, 2021 by Rabbi

As people listen to stories of faith, it is as it is written “find rest for your souls.” (Jer. 6:16). As the tales touch the mind, heart and soul of the listener a change takes place. There is nothing that restores the soul, purifies the heart, deepens the mind, and bring one closer to our Father in Heaven than a stories. “A little refreshment goes a long way” (San. 103b)

The Maggid (storytelling rabbi) traveled from place to place and was never lacking for a tale to touch the heart and soul. With some of his stories, he was able to guide some back to the ways of goodness. His gift was that he never had to prepare, but was able to produce the right stories at the right time.

One time the maggid came to a synagogue where the rabbi welcomed him warmly. “Please tell me a story,” he asked.

The maggid, who was tired from the long trip, thought for a moment and began, “A man once went to the market to buy a goat. On his return home his wife tried to milk the goat, but no milk was forthcoming. ‘What kind of goat did you let them sell you? It may look like a goat, but it certainly does not act like a goat.’

“‘Don’t worry,’ the husband said. ‘It is a very fine goat. However, she was not fed and watered in the market­place, and she is very tired from the long trip. Give her something to eat and drink, and let her rest up a bit, and she will give you all the milk you want.’ “

May all your tales end with shalom (peace)
