Curse Those Who Curse You

Three times the Torah tells us a variation of the words spoken by G-d to Avram:

I will bless those who bless you
And curse the one who curses you

Blessings make a person bigger, greater in ways that matter. But curses do the opposite; they shrink a person.

When we look at the growing wave of antisemitism today, we see this prophecy coming true before our eyes. Tucker Carlson was a giant, a massively important figure in the Republican party. He has shrunk before our very eyes. Anti-semites live the curse in real time, becoming small in every way that matters: intellect, influence, and impact.
