  Shalom u’vracha.
  Thank you for helping me understand today the hemshech of the pasuk, lo hameisim yahalulu koh..This pasuk is painful the first time anyone says it, after losing a loved one. At least it was for me. However after today’s shuir, it is referring to people who are alive and well but are the meisim who don’t make brachos, who don’t see the life/divine in everything. They and their world are dead. Vanachnu nevuriech ( a bracha) koh……

  If a bracha is d'rabbonan, what is the core d'oraisa mitzvah when I'm eating an apple?

  Why do I have to look at myself as a thief? I mean, God created me with needs and then calls me a thief if I need to eat? Doesn't that seem capricious?

  Rabbi Jacobson, I understand what you said. But, could you please give examples, real life examples; or a story from someone's life that fulfilled that thought ( any thought).

  NOT FOR TODAY. 

  It would just help me.

  What's the difference between the teruma in everything

  And the spark in everything that waits to be elevated? Synonymous terms?

  What about

   the bracha we are supposed to say after eating something? Is that related somehow to this shiur as well?

  Who can do this

  constantly? To be aware at every second, every minute, all day long of this connection with Hashem? Takes continuous concentration. Continuously reminding oneself of this connection. Something to strive for!

  Does simply making a brocha give one permission to steal?

  Usually when obtaining something from another, there is  a "price" of a certain amount of  money. 

  Can one simply make a brocha on items from the Beis Hamigdash and steal it and consume it? Of course not.  Hashem's "price" is acknowledgement and gratitude by way of a brocha. So one properly obtains food by paying the "price" of a brocha.

  Everything belongs to Hashem so we must make a brocha

  Makes sense about food.

  But... when i put on my clothes, that also belongs to  Hashem, yet I make no brocha. Whats the relevant distinction between food and other things I use and enjoy if all belongs to Hashem?

  Avraham Avinu bought a burial plot.  Did he make a  brocha before using it?

    If a brocha makes one focus on the history and  development of the food, (and instills gratitude) why isn't this so for my clothes, my Chevy, my house, etc?

  How to be able to make peace with myself on having had so many expectations of myself and not being able to fulfill them.
