## Resource

  What does true humility look like? Is it thinking less of yourself? Pretending your accomplishments don’t matter? In this week’s parashah, the Torah describes Moshe Rabbenu as the most humble person who ever lived—yet he was also the man who confronted Pharaoh, split the sea, brought down the Torah, and spoke with HaShem face to face. How can greatness and humility coexist in the same person?     In this morning’s class, we explore the Torah’s revolutionary definition of humility through the lives of Moshe Rabbenu, Rabbi Akiva, Hillel HaZaken, Rav Yosef, and Rabbi Yechezkel Abramsky. Along the way, we’ll discover that humility is not denying our gifts—it is recognizing their Source. The arrogant person asks, “Who honors me?” The humble person asks, “Who needs me?” A timely and practical lesson on how each of us can use the blessings HaShem has given us to elevate the people around us and change the world.
