Fill Your House 充滿房子


一個容器由它裝載的內容所界定:
一壺水是水, 一箱蘋果是蘋果。
同樣的, 一所房子也就是由它所包含的界定。

把經卷的書本填滿你的房子,你的房子便變成了托拉。
在牆壁上掛著慈善箱子,你的房子便成為一個行善的源泉。

讓那些需要一個溫暖家庭的人, 來到你的餐桌前,
你的房子便變成了黑暗中的明燈。

1:9 那光是真光、照亮一切生在世上的人。


A container is defined by its contents:
A pitcher of water is water.
A crate of apples is apples.

A house, too, is defined by what it contains.

Fill your house with books of Torah, and your house becomes a Torah.
Affix charity boxes to its walls, and your house becomes a wellspring of charity.

Bring those who need a warm home to your table,
and your house becomes a lamp in the darkness.

Based on letters and talks of the Rebbe, Rabbi M. M. Schneerson
