The Root of Evil is Jealousy
פרשת יתרו / י”ט בשבט תשפ”ב
The root of evil is not money in of itself. It is the jealousy of someone else who has more than another. It ignores how the person acquired his money or property. People, in a free economy acquire wealth by providing goods and services to others who are willing to pay. To paraphrase an old adage, the rich get richer and the poor get richer.
