I assume that this is basically the concept of כל קבוע כמחצה על מחצה דמי - just couched in different terms.

The Shach on the Torah and the Shach on Shulchan Aruch are different people. The Shach Al HaTorah is Rav Mordechai Hakohen, one of the talmidei HoAri Z'l and lived in the Galil. https://en.wikipedia.org/wi...
Rabbi Shabsi Kohen, the Shach on Shulchan Aruch lived in Europe in the 1600's. https://en.wikipedia.org/wi....

Dear Rabbi Jacobson,
I was refleting upon the differet answers as to why the Torah was given in a desert and I thought of the reason that its ownerless to any culture and civilization as even deeper insight; a desert is not limited to time really. Because a desert is barren it does not change according to the age and era of the land and habitat that evolves around it. Meaning the very fact that a desert is desert a thousand years ago and today shows a rather timeless component. A component that the Torah has as its greatest value, that its timeless and eternal. Relevant today, tomorrow and forever.
Thats the greatest lesson I gauge from the Torah being given in a desert. Its timeless, eternal and like we all know, "the sages had their ees fixed on eternity".
One of the greatest challenges we encounter today is the Torah's relevance in todays modern society.

Tagore, an Indian poet and philosopher, wrote:
"I slept and dreamt that life was joy, I awoke and saw that life was duty, I acted and behold duty was joy. The Torah, a training manual, invites us on just such a journey of growth. The mitzvas are there to connect us to life and to living ap-propriately. They have practical applications, and their diligent practice produces mastery. Joy is a by-
product of mastery.
Naase v'nishma, despite its counterintuitive sound, is about commitment. When a child learns to walk upright in the face of gravity, it doesn't matter that he doesn't yet know Newton's Laws of Motion. He simply does it.
I use gravity as a metaphor for mitzvas. Mitzvas are what work, and so is being mindful
in one's interactions with gravity. To disregard either is to invite pain into one's life. Its simply a choice of interacting with reality (what works)or not. All of the laws of workability preceded us and its up to us to adopt them as our own.
Rava's comment directly descends from our founding father Abraham. If there is one principle that he stood for, it is that he invested himself totally in whatever
he did. So too with Moses. It is a hallmark of the enlight-ened.
