On the passuk: ืึทืึผึถืขึฐืชึผึทืจ ืึดืฆึฐืึธืง ืึทื’ ืึฐื ึนืึทื ืึดืฉืึฐืชึผืึน ืึผึดื ืขึฒืงึธืจึธื ืึดืื ืึทืึผึตืขึธืชึถืจ ืืึน ื’ ืึทืชึผึทืึทืจ ืจึดืึฐืงึธื ืึดืฉืึฐืชึผืึน, Rashi explains that the word ืึทืึผึถืขึฐืชึผึทืจ means: ืืจืื ืืืคืฆืืจ ืืชืคืื, Yitzchak davened repeatedly and persistently, โnudgingโ Hashem, kaveyachol. Finally, Hashem finally answered him: ืึทืึผึตืขึธืชึถืจ ืืึน ื’, which Rashi explains as: ื ืชืคืฆืจ ืื ืชืคืืืก ืื ืชืคืชื ืื โ Hashem was convinced.
It sounds as though Hakadosh Baruch Hu did not want to answer the tefillah of Yitzchak and had to be convinced. But we know that Hakadosh Baruch Hu answers our tefillos, so why did Yitzchak have to daven so strenuously to appease and persuade Hashem to grant his request?
Someone told Rav Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld the following explanation. Later in the parashah, Rashi says that Avraham Avinu was really supposed to live 180 years, like Yitzchak, but since Hakadosh Baruch Hu promised him that he would die ืึผึฐืฉืึตืืึธื ืืึนืึธื, he had to be taken from this world before Eisav turned wicked. Therefore, Avraham passed away five years early, at the age of 175.
Originally, Hashemโs plan was that Eisav should be born five years later, so that Avraham could live until 180, but Yitzchakโs persistent tefillos โconvincedโ Hashem to grant him children earlier. Because of Yitzchakโs prayers, Hashem couldnโt hold back, kavyachol.
Upon hearing this explanation, Rav Yosef Chaim responded, on the spot, that the phrase ืึทืึผึตืขึธืชึถืจ ืืึน ื’ has the same gematria as ืืืฉ ืฉื ืื (both equal 748).
Answering Yitzchakโs tefillah came at a high cost: five years of Avrahamโs life.
When this vort was told to Rav Aharon Kotler, he was so impressed that he said, โSuch a gematria could only have been said with ruach hakodesh.โ
Rabbeinu Bachaye expresses a similar idea. He explains why each of the imahos โ Sarah, Rivka, and Rochel โ had to be akaros, and the reason he gives for Rivkaโs barrenness is that she was going to give birth to Eisav, and Hashem didnโt want Avraham to see Eisav embark on a wicked path.
If Hakadosh Baruch Hu already made Yitzchak and Rivka wait twenty years to have children, why didnโt He make them wait another five years, so that Avraham could live to his full lifespan? Thatโs because, as Rashi says, Yitzchak Avinu ืืจืื ืืืคืฆืืจ ืืชืคืื.
Iโd like to highlight three important points about tefillah that we can learn from Rashi.
One: Tefillah Requires Persistence
Sometimes a person davens once, twice, three times โ he keeps davening for the same thing, but he doesnโt Hakadosh Baruch Hu answering, so he despairs, thinking heโs not worthy. We have to be prepared to daven again, and again, and again, to be the biggest โnudgeโ possible. No tefillah is wasted, chas vโshalom. Rather, each tefillah counts, because the buildup of tefillah after tefillah is what eventually leads to Hakadosh Baruch Hu listening to our requests.
Two: Use the Correct Logic
Rashi uses unusual and seemingly repetitive terminology to describe Hashemโs response to Yitzchakโs prayers: ื ืชืคืฆืจ ืื ืชืคืืืก ืื ืชืคืชื ืื. The word ืื ืชืคืชื is actually quite puzzling. In Tachanun, in the paragraph beginning ืฉืืึนืึตืจ ืึดืฉืึฐืจึธืึตื, we describe Hashem as: ืึดืชึฐืจึทืฆึผึถื ืึผึฐืจึทืึฒืึดืื ืึผืึดืชึฐืคึผึทืึผึตืก ืึผึฐืชึทืึฒื ืึผื ึดืื. There is a version of this tefillah that describes Hashem as: ืึดืชึฐืจึทืฆึผึถื ืึผึฐืจึทืึฒืึดืื ืึผืึดืชึฐืคึผึทืชึผึถื ืึผึฐืชึทืึฒื ืึผื ึดืื, but the Taz (Orach Chaim 127) says that this version is incorrect. He cites the Ramban in Parashas Mishpatim, where the passuk says: ืึฐืึดื ืึฐืคึทืชึผึถื ืึดืืฉื ืึผึฐืชืึผืึธื, and explains that the term ืคืชืื means using falsehood to convince someone. The Ramban cites the passuk says in Mishlei: ืคึผึถืชึดื ืึทืึฒืึดืื ืึฐืึธื ืึผึธืึธืจ and explains that a person who is easily swayed by others is called a ืคืชื. The phrase ืึผืึดืชึฐืคึผึทืชึผึถื ืึผึฐืชึทืึฒื ืึผื ึดืื implies that we speak falsehood to Hakadosh Baruch Hu to get him to answer our tefillah, and thatโs wrong, because there can be no ืคืชืื vis-ร -vis Hashem.
How, then, can Rashi says that Hashem was ื ืชืคืชื to Yitzchakโs tefillah?
Rashi actually interprets the words ืึฐืึดื ืึฐืคึทืชึผึถื ืึดืืฉื ืึผึฐืชืึผืึธื differently from the Ramban. On those words, he comments: ืืืืจ ืขื ืืื ืขื ืฉืฉืืืขืช ืื. According to Rashi, the term ืคืชืื means to speak to someoneโs heart, using the right words and reasoning to convince the person to do something. Understood this way, ืคืชืื doesnโt mean using falsehood; it means knowing how to be convincing. Thatโs why Rashi sees fit to use the word ืื ืชืคืชื regarding Hashem.
We see from here that not only do we have to persist in our tefillos, we also have to โconvinceโ Hashem to listen to us. Thatโs a whole new dimension in davening: not just to ask and ask, but to find a reason thatโs convincing enough to make Him decide to give it to us.
The Gemara (Bava Kamma 50) tells the story of Nechunya the well-digger, who dug wells for the people who were oleh regel. Once, his daughter fell into a pit and was in mortal danger. When Rabbi Chanina ben Dosa was apprised of this, he declared that the girl was fine. Sure enough, she managed to get out of the pit. Rabbi Chanina was asked how he knew the girl was fine, and he answered, โIโm neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet, but I reasoned that if a tzaddik took pains to dig wells, it could not be that his own daughter would be harmed by a well.โ
The Shitah Mekubetzes cites the explanation of Rabbeinu Yeshayah, noting that Rabbi Chanina used the word ืืืจืชื (ืืืจืชื ืืืจ ืฉืืืชื ืฆืืืง ืืฆืืขืจ ืื ืืืฉื ืื ืืจืขื), implying that he used a logical argument in davening to Hashem. In the words of the Shitah Mekubetzes: ืืืกืืื ืืงืืืฉ ืืจืื ืืื ืืืืจื ืฉืื ืืจืื ืฉื ืืงืืืฉ ืืจืื ืืื ืฉืืกืืื ืืกืืจืช ืืฆืืืงืื ืฉืืืืจ.
Rabbi Chanina didnโt just ask โ he used a sevarah. Similarly, we have to come up with a good reason why Hakadosh Baruch Hu should do what we want him to do. Thatโs the concept of ืคืชืื.
Three: Careful How You Ask
If you persist in asking the Eibishter, Heโll answer you. But you have to be careful, because sometimes Hakadosh Baruch Hu may grant your request even though itโs not the best thing for you, or itโs not the right time. Case in point: Hakadosh Baruch Hu wanted to wait another five years so that Avraham could live until 180, but Yitzchak davened so powerfully and persistently that Hashem answered him sooner, at the cost of five years of Avrahamโs life.
Itโs also important to phrase our requests wisely. The Gemara (Moed Kattan 18) states that even though we donโt make weddings on Chol Hamoed, eirusin is permitted, for fear that someone else might preempt the shidduch through his tefillos: ืฉืื ืืงืืื ื ืืืจ ืืจืืืื. The Gemara goes on to relate that Rava heard someone davening that he should marry a certain girl. โDonโt daven that way,โ Rava advised. The Chiddushei Haran explains that if that girl was bashert for him, as announced in the bas kol, he would marry her anyway, and if she wasnโt his bashert, his tefillos would enable him to get her, but eventually he would lose her. If the bas kol had pronounced that she was destined for someone else, and his tefillos overrode that bas kol, eventually he would die or they would get divorced, and then she would revert to the original person she was intended for.
On the passuk: ืจืึนืึฐืืึนืช ืึตื ืึผึดืึฐืจืึนื ึธื ืึฐืึถืจึถื ืคึผึดืืคึดืึผืึนืช ืึผึฐืึธืึธื, Rav Elyah Lopian noted that tefillah is like a ืึถืจึถื ืคึผึดืืคึดืึผืึนืช, a double-edged sword: if youโre not careful with such a sword, youโll cut yourself. Similarly, the power of tefillah is so strong that you can โcut yourselfโ with it, by having Hakadosh Baruch Hu granting your request even though it might not be the best thing for you.
Accordingly, Rava told the man who was davening to marry a certain girl to pray that if sheโs the one whoโs bashert for him, it should go easily. Thatโs how we daven: we ask for what we need, but with the stipulation that we only want it if itโs right for us.
When we bentch Rosh Chodesh, we ask for ืึทืึผึดืื ืฉืึถืึผึดืึธืึฐืืึผ ืึดืฉืึฐืึฒืืึนืช ืึดืึผึตื ืึผ ืึฐืืึนืึธื. Why do we add the word ืึฐืืึนืึธื? Because we have many wishes and desires, but we want Hashem to grant those wishes only if itโs in our best interest.
We should all be zocheh to strengthen ourselves in tefillah and to learn how to be marbeh uโmaftzir bโtefillah so that Hakadosh Baruch Hu should be nisratzeh, nispayes, and nispateh to us.
