Why is Biblical Financial Success a Passion for Rabbi Lapin? [3:16] “First of all, it’s satisfying because it’s complex. And what I mean by that is, life is complex. Any attempt to solve the problems of life with a slogan or keyword, or simple solution is doomed to failure. And people regularly ask me, you know, what is the secret to money?” In most cases, when people ask this question of Rabbi Lapin, they’re looking for a simple solution. Yet, as he points out, it’s not a simple subject and cannot be reduced to a simple answer. This led the Rabbi to dig deeper and become more interested in the ancient financial wisdom within the Bible. [5:47] “I’m afraid the Bible is just like that. If you’re going to try to solve this in a simplistic way and find a verse here or a verse there that helps you with finances, you’re going to be doomed. Because anybody who knows his way around the Bible will find a verse that says one thing and then another verse that apparently says the opposite.” To unlock wisdom from the Bible requires a deep study of its context. A verse here or there is no good without the knowledge of why it exists in the first place. The Bible and Money [6:35] “When you got right down to it, the question I was always asked was, ‘Why are Jews so disproportionately good with money?’ And it turned out to be a very worthwhile field of study that no one had really done.” Since there was little accessible information on this topic, he embraced the subject. Over the course of Rabbi Daniel Lapin's books, he’s studied and identified the connections between the holy texts and cultural behaviors.

Ancient Jewish Wisdom: The Bible and Money [17:00] “Heaven and Earth are two separate categories of information. One is information that is earthly, it’s materialistic. Another form of information is ephemeral…You can’t touch it… It’s something, again, that Jewish people have always understood, to their credit and to their benefit. Which is that there is a form of knowledge which is earthly. And this you can roughly call science, technology, discovery, and medicine. In all of these things, every successive generation knows more than the one before it… However, when we come to the things that never change, well, on those, we actually seem to know less as time goes by.” Those things that never change, as they would happen, can be sourced from the Bible just as readily as anywhere else. One of the examples taught in Rabbi Lapin’s books is the relationship between parent and child, and how teenage children often ignore their parents’ wisdom, only to understand and appreciate it later as adults. This has never changed, yet the Rabbi asserts there’s more value in studying something like this from ancient texts than modern ones. Because that ancient wisdom gets
