Dew, in Hebrew ‘tal’ (טל), is a common Biblical symbol of God’s bountiful
blessings. Rain is another
sign of God’s love for mankind. What is the difference between rain and dew?
According to Jewish mysticism, while rain is a sign of God showering his
abundant blessings freely from above, dew, which forms below from condensation
of atmospheric water vapor, is related to the divine blessings which are a
result of man’s own efforts and achievements. It is the blessing of God from
above which allows for the flowering of man’s work below. Like a tree which is
born from man's devotion and God's outpouring of love, the strength of man
corresponds to the effort that he puts forth to achieve his goals. Put down YOUR
roots in the Holy Land.
