Text by Rabbi David Hanania Pinto Shlita
It is written, “Because of this thing, Hashem your G-d will bless you” [Re'eh 15:10].
The term hazeh (“this”) has a numerical value of 17.
The Sages say, “He who gives a small coin to a poor man obtains six blessings, and he who speaks comforting words to him obtains eleven blessings” [Bava Batra 9b].
Hence the verse states, “Because of hazeh [this] thing, Hashem your G-d will bless you.”
