But today, we don\u2019t know exactly who Amalek is. So how can we still fulfill this command?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amalek wasn\u2019t just a nation \u2014 they represented a dangerous way of thinking. They denied Hashem (God)\u2019s involvement in the world and believed everything was just <a href=\"https:\/\/www.torahmates.org\/jewish-resources\/parshat-balak-hidden-miracles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">coincidence<\/a>. The Torah hints at this when it says (Devarim <a href=\"https:\/\/library.alhatorah.org\/?r1=Devarim_25:17-18&amp;s1=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">25:18<\/a>), <em>\u201cAsher karchah baderech\u201d<\/em> \u2014 Amalek \u201cchanced upon you on the way.\u201d They saw life as random, without purpose or Divine guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We see the same attitude in Haman, a descendant of Amalek. When things started to turn against him in the story of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.torahmates.org\/jewish-resources\/watch-quick-talk-the-mitzvos-of-purim-in-2-minutes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Purim<\/a>, he told his family about everything that \u201chappened\u201d \u2014 as if it were all just bad luck. Chazal (our sages) teach that this mindset came straight from Amalek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Erasing Amalek through Gratitude<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So even though we don\u2019t know who Amalek is physically, we can still fight against their <em>ideology<\/em> \u2014 the belief that Hashem is not involved in our lives. We do this by constantly recognizing and thanking Hashem for everything He gives us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Eliyahu_Boruch_Finkel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rabbi Eliyahu Baruch Finkel<\/a> said: <strong>\u201cEvery time we thank Hashem, we are erasing Amalek.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every <em>brachah<\/em> (blessing), every time we say <em>Baruch Hashem<\/em> (Blessed be God), every moment we recognize Hashem\u2019s kindness \u2014 we\u2019re fulfilling this mitzvah. Even now, if we stop for a second and say, \u201cThank You, Hashem, for all You do for me,\u201d we\u2019ve taken a step toward erasing Amalek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Returning with Love<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Especially now, in the month of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.torahmates.org\/jewish-resources\/the-fabulous-gift-of-teshuvah\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Elul<\/a>, we can do this with even more meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <em>pasuk <\/em>(verse) says in Shir HaShirim (Song of Songs <a href=\"https:\/\/library.alhatorah.org\/?r1=Shir_HaShirim_6:3&amp;s1=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">6:3<\/a>): <em>\u201cAni l&#8217;dodi v&#8217;dodi li\u201d<\/em> \u2014 \u201cI am for my Beloved, and my Beloved is for me.\u201d Our <em>chachamim <\/em>(wise rabbis) teach that this verse hints to Elul \u2014 the month of return and closeness to Hashem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons alignwide is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter tm-cta\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.torahmates.org\/jewish-resources\/elul-my-favorite-month\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read more on Elul inspiration<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Moshe_Feinstein\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rabbi Moshe Feinstein<\/a> explains this beautifully: Some people think the best way to inspire <em>teshuvah<\/em> (repentence) is through fear \u2014 punishment and reward. But the highest level of <em>teshuvah<\/em> comes through love. When we open our eyes and see how much Hashem does for us, how much kindness He shows every day \u2014 how can we not feel love in return?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s <em>ani ledodi<\/em> \u2014 I choose to come close to Hashem. And then, <em>dodi li<\/em> \u2014 Hashem draws close to us. He pours down blessings, beyond what we deserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As our Sages teach: <em>\u201cAhavah mekalkelet et hashurah\u201d<\/em> \u2014 Love goes beyond the regular rules. When we return to Hashem with love, even our mistakes can become <em>zechuyot<\/em> \u2014 merits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Horse off the Road, a Soul on the Way Home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s end with a story from the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Baal_Shem_Tov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Baal Shem Tov<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One night during Elul, the Baal Shem Tov visited a crowded inn where simple Jews were drinking and talking. He joined their conversation about horses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s the difference between a fast, well-trained horse and a slow, lazy one?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They laughed, \u201cIt\u2019s obvious! A fast horse is much more valuable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut what if that fast horse strays off the road?\u201d the Baal Shem Tov asked. \u201cWon\u2019t it get much farther off track?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The room fell quiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYes,\u201d he continued, \u201cbut because it\u2019s so fast, it can return just as quickly. My dear brothers, you are all the children of Avraham, Yitzchak, and Yaakov (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob). You are holy souls. Even if you\u2019ve strayed, you can return with great strength and speed. Hashem is waiting for you with open arms.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>This Elul, let us fulfill the mitzvah of erasing Amalek \u2014 not with swords, but with sincere words of gratitude, love, and return to Hashem.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button tm-cta\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.torahmates.org\/sign-up.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more lessons from the weekly Torah portion with a personal study partner.
