The power of vision

Hi,

"Esther 3:5 says, 'And Haman saw that Mordechai would neither bend his knee nor bow to him.' Rabbi Eivo cited Tehillim 69:24, 'May the eyes of the wicked be darkened from seeing,' for the vision of their eyes brings them down to Gehennom…

"But the vision of the eyes of the righteous raises them to the greatest heights, as Bereishit 18:2 says, 'And he [Avraham] raised his eyes and he saw, behold, three men,'…"


(Midrash, Esther Rabbah 7:9)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
