“Nasata v’natata b’emunah?” – Did you do business honestly and faithfully?
But here’s the twist:
Every soul you’ve interacted with gets to answer this question about YOU.
What if someone says you weren’t fair or honest?
Your soul then feels the deep shame and guilt of that broken relationship.
Jewish wisdom explains this emotional pain—facing those we’ve hurt—is actually what “hell” (Gehinnom) is. It’s not fire, it’s regret and shame.
And it can take up to 12 months for your soul to repair these relationships.
The good news?
You have time right now to make things right. To heal, mend, and build trust.
How will YOU answer this question today?
“If your integrity were judged by those you’ve done business with how would you measure up?”
