Chassidut sobre Provérbios 8:32

In the Midrash Lech Lecha (Bereishit Rabbah 39:1): Listen, daughter, etc., and incline your ear (Psalms 45:11) — it is compared [to a man who was traveling], etc. when he saw a castle burning. He said, "Is it possible that it lacks a governor?" The owner of the castle glanced at him, etc. As man is called a traveler, since he must always travel from one level to another. For habit becomes [second] nature. And what is natural brings forgetfulness and hides the internality of life, and this is even true with Torah and commandments if they become a habit. That is why one must constantly seek new paths and strategies. And that is why the Holy One, blessed be He, renews in His goodness the work of creation every day (alluding to one of the blessings in the morning prayers). So that nature does not become overpowering. And that is the castle. As this natural world burns everything that enters it, even though all of nature is from a point of light above. But it is drowned in nature. And nature eliminates everything, like the matter that is written: but it could not be recognized that they had come inside them (Genesis 41:21). And that is why the Holy One, blessed be He, renews in His goodness the work of creation every day. And a person must seek such novelty, as it is written: watching daily at my gates (Proverbs 8:32). And hence it is written: Listen, daughter, etc., and it repeats afterward, and incline your ear. To say that, one must always be ready to listen. And that is [the meaning of] that which is written: You, go forth (Genesis 12:1) — there is a need to always travel to — that which I will show you continuously novel understandings. That is why man is called a traveler, as anyone who stands still without renewal is immediately governed by nature. And that is why the angels above, who are not within nature, are called standing. But in this world, man is called a traveler, as mentioned above.
