민수기 13:20의 Chasidut

וּמָ֣ה הָ֠אָרֶץ הַשְּׁמֵנָ֨ה הִ֜וא אִם־רָזָ֗ה הֲיֵֽשׁ־בָּ֥הּ עֵץ֙ אִם־אַ֔יִן וְהִ֨תְחַזַּקְתֶּ֔ם וּלְקַחְתֶּ֖ם מִפְּרִ֣י הָאָ֑רֶץ וְהַ֨יָּמִ֔ים יְמֵ֖י בִּכּוּרֵ֥י עֲנָבִֽים׃

토지의 후박과 수목의 유무니라 담대하라 또 그 땅 실과를 가져오라 하니 그 때는 포도가 처음 익을 즈음이었더라

Toldot Yaakov Yosef

(219) "And what the land is like, fat or lean" (Numbers 13:20) - this is that a person should test and know in their heart of hearts regarding what they learn why did they come to this world, and in how they can progress, if in Oral Torah, which is Mishnah, which is the root of all the Oral Torah, or in the hidden aspects of Torah, and one should see what their soul desires, and through this one will know why they came to this world. And this is "what is the land, is it fat" - the letters HaSHMeNaH are the same of MiSHNaH, or "is it lean" RaZaH, since RaZ is secret, which is the internal aspects of the Torah.

Toldot Yaakov Yosef

(220) "Does it have trees or not" (Numbers 13:20), as it is written in the Zohar "do not destroy its trees [etza] (Deut. 20:19) this is the student of the sages that advises [meyaetz] the people regarding teshuvah etc" (Zohar 3:202a and Zohar 3:202b). If so, in this case also, regarding an individual, the inclination to good is called tree, since it advises a person to Torah and teshuvah. And a person should test if the inclination to good rules them and advises them well, and if not, one should "exert yourselves and take", meaning that to do the opposite needs strength, and doing the opposite [of the yetzer hara] is "fruit of the land" since evil deeds are the husks and externals of the fruit, which does not happen regarding good deeds, which are the fruit themselves, and this is why is written "and exert yourselves and bring some of the fruit of the land".

Toldot Yaakov Yosef

(221) "now these days were the days of the first ripe-grapes" (Numbers 13:20) meaning, that all this a person needs to hurry, and do this in the days of first-fruits, that is, when one is young, which is before the old days, as the Zohar explains regarding "In the face of the gray-hair, you are to rise" (Leviticus 19:32), [meaning, rise yourself spiritually when you are young] and so it will be good when one comes [to the next world] (Zohar 3:87b:6), and do not overthink this.
