SIMPLES SAKES

[24b middle] Gemarah: The verse uses the word, “for her,” to teach not only that a Get must be specifically written for the sake of divorce and for this specific man, but also to divorce this one specific wife.

Prac-T-cal Tidbits: We should always make sure to try and do everything for its own sake and not get mixed up with complicating ulterior motives (ie: to gain reward or prestige) [such as: giving charity simply for the sake of helping others financially or visiting the sick just to make them feel better]. Not only should we not have selfish motivations, but we should eventually come to fulfill G-d’s commandments simply because it is His will.
