It
is written in the Torah
"And the writing was that of G-d's engraved (Haruth) upon the Tablets of Stone" (Exodus c32, v16). In Pirqei Aboth (Ethics of the Fathers) it is stated in connection with the above phrase: "Read not 'engraved' (Haruth) but 'freedom' (Heruth), for the only free man is one who occupies himself with the study of the Torah." |
