More on the Entebbe Rescue
As you treat others here below, so you are treated above.
Perhaps someone once tried to tell you about the ugly deeds of another.
You really wanted to hear. But you knew that’s not right. Gossip is a form of murder, and you did not wish to be an accomplice.
Mustering all your moral strength, you quietly responded, “I’m not interested.”
And you didn’t listen.
So you will be treated above.
When your soul returns to its place above, a prosecuting angel will appear to report on your deeds down here. And it’s possible that some of those deeds may also not have been so pretty.
But just as you responded, so too G‑d will also say, “I’m not interested. I don’t even want to listen.”
The sweat was worthwhile.
