Musar sur Avot 6:2

אָמַר רַבִּי יְהוֹשֻׁעַ בֶּן לֵוִי, בְּכָל יוֹם וָיוֹם בַּת קוֹל יוֹצֵאת מֵהַר חוֹרֵב וּמַכְרֶזֶת וְאוֹמֶרֶת, אוֹי לָהֶם לַבְּרִיּוֹת מֵעֶלְבּוֹנָהּ שֶׁל תּוֹרָה. שֶׁכָּל מִי שֶׁאֵינוֹ עוֹסֵק בַּתּוֹרָה נִקְרָא נָזוּף, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (משלי יא) נֶזֶם זָהָב בְּאַף חֲזִיר אִשָּׁה יָפָה וְסָרַת טָעַם. וְאוֹמֵר (שמות לב) וְהַלֻּחֹת מַעֲשֵׂה אֱלֹהִים הֵמָּה וְהַמִּכְתָּב מִכְתַּב אֱלֹהִים הוּא חָרוּת עַל הַלֻּחֹת, אַל תִּקְרָא חָרוּת אֶלָּא חֵרוּת, שֶׁאֵין לְךָ בֶן חוֹרִין אֶלָּא מִי שֶׁעוֹסֵק בְּתַלְמוּד תּוֹרָה. וְכָל מִי שֶׁעוֹסֵק בְּתַלְמוּד תּוֹרָה הֲרֵי זֶה מִתְעַלֶּה, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (במדבר כא) וּמִמַּתָּנָה נַחֲלִיאֵל וּמִנַּחֲלִיאֵל בָּמוֹת:

Et cela lui donne la royauté et la règle et la profondeur du jugement. Les secrets de la Torah lui sont révélés et il devient un puits infaillible et un fleuve renaissant. Il devient humble et indulgent et indulgent de l'insulte, et cela (la Torah) l'élève et l'exalte sur toutes les exigences (de la vie). R. Yehoshua ben Levi a dit: "Chaque jour, une voix céleste sort du mont Chorev et proclame:" Malheur aux créations pour la honte de la Torah! "Car quiconque ne s'occupe pas de la Torah est appelé" rejeté ", comme il est écrit (Proverbes 11:22): "Comme un anneau d'or dans le museau d'un cochon, ainsi est une belle femme de qui la sagesse est partie", et (Exode 32:16): "Et les tablettes étaient l'œuvre de D.ieu et l'écriture était l'écriture de D.ieu, gravée (charuth) sur les tablettes. "Ne le lisez pas" charuth ", mais" cheiruth "(liberté), car personne n'est libre à part celui qui étudie la Torah. Car quiconque étudie la Torah est exalté, comme il est écrit (Nombres 21:19): "Et de Matanah (le don [de la Torah]), Nachliel ('l'héritage du L rd'); et de Nachliel, Bamoth («la haute montagne»). "

Shemirat HaLashon

And in Avoth 6:2 we find: "R. Yehoshua b. Levi said: 'A heavenly voice goes forth from Mount Chorev and proclaims: "Woe unto the creations because of the shame of Torah, etc.!"'" And, in Zohar Chadash it is stated that the destined day of judgment, viz. (Malachi 3:19): "For, behold, the day is coming which will burn like an oven" — this is the day on which Moses, our teacher, may peace be upon him is destined to 'claim the shame of Torah,' as we find in the Mishnah: 'Woe unto the creations, etc.'" For, in truth, it is a great shame to the Torah, whose holiness is rooted above all of the worlds, that the sons of man, moulded from matter, founded in dust, separate themselves from it!"

And he is also rejected by the L-rd, as stated in Avoth 6:2: "Whoever does not occupy himself with Torah is called nazuf ['rejected']."

Shenei Luchot HaBerit

This is the real meaning of "Noach found favor in the eyes of G–d, whereas G–d did not find." He stood out in his generation, since his generation did not respond to the exhortations, whereas Noach responded to G–d's "grace," i.e. וחנותי את אשר אחון. He had never become corrupt, nor was he put off by the failure of his fellow-men to heed him. Noach's contemporaries were ערלי לב, had uncircumcised hearts. When they did not respond to calls from above either, they demonstrated that they were also ערלי בשר, remained uncircumcised in their flesh and continued in their perversions. This is why both their bodies and their souls perished. This means that at the time of the resurrection their individual "files" will not be re-opened to determine if some of them qualify for another round of life on earth. Rabbi Aba in the Zohar, (Sullam edition page 75) comments as follows on Genesis 7,23: וימח את כל היקום … וימחו מן הארץ, "The words כל היקום אשר על פני האדמה, include all rulers past and present of the Gentile nations. Before G–d metes out retribution to the ordinary individual, He deals with those whose obligation it is to teach their subjects to be G–d-fearing, and who have failed to discharge their duties.
