POMEGRANATE PEELS

[108b bottom] Ravina: A pomegranate is not protected without its peel, while oil does not a barrel to protect it.
R’ Avigdor Miller: G-d creates fruits with their own protective packagings to keep them fresh and ripe.

D-E-ep Thoughts (based on R’ Rosner & RambaM): When one takes time to reflect on the world, just by looking around at Hashem’s simple and magnificent creations, one will be lead to love and fear of G-d. We are all tasked with KNOWing (not just believing in) G-d. Just as we ‘know’ that an comfortable chair was created by a craftsman, we must appreciate (and never take for granted) the [constant] Creator of the entire universe.
