📱 He sits at home, picks up the phone, and starts scrolling. That is time being killed. Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto, shlit’a, draws the map of our generation: never has there been a generation with such wealth, such luxury, such long life — and never one so anxious, so joyless, so angry, so divided.
“A whole family sits at the table and nobody speaks to anybody.” Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto, shlit’a, tells of two people sitting across from each other, typing into their phones. What are you doing? We are texting each other. So he answers them the way a father would: talk with your mouths. Speak to each other. We have everything a person could want in this generation, and we have lost the one thing that makes any of it worth having — the ability to be present with the people in front of us.
Then he goes to Rashi on this week’s portion. What was Esau? A man of the field — and Rashi says: idle. Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto, shlit’a, explains that a person who is idle is a person who does not fill his life with real substance, and that idleness is a ruin: it does not stay neutral, it leads a person to idolatry. The phone in the hand is not rest. It is a hole in the day — and every hole in the day is a place where the yetzer hara builds.
