Reply To: Parsheh of the Week Interpretation

The Dubner Magid gives a parable about shabbos. A collector was recognized by someone has someone who came from his home –
town. He started to ask him about his town. The collector refused to answer him, saying that you are losing money for me. The man said to the collector, you kn ow what, tomorrow we will make a holiday and I will pay all that you can make in order that you should be available to answer my questions. The collector being tired from the whole weeks work, falls asleep. The man gets upset that he is paying him and he falls asleep no answering his questions. Hashem gives us a day, paying for it, so we should spend with him and then we sleep away the whole day.
