Vayechi 47:29 – Chesed Shel Emes (2005)

47-29. Chesed Shel Emes.
VAYECHI 2005 – KINDNESS AND TRUTH
Posted on  by Rabbi Paltiel
What is meant by “Chesed shel emes” in the context of Yosef’s promise to bury his father Yaakov in Eretz Yisroel? Is kindness driven by altruism or something else? Sources include: Rashi, Baal HaTurim, Shaloh, Rambam, Chizkuni, Abarbanel, Zohar with Likutei Torah.
The rights performed on a deceased man are true kindness because they can never be reciprocated. first Passuk
