By Cunning You Shall Make War for Yourself

It is important to prepare sophisticated plans in order to win the war. Strength alone is not enough; a wise strategy is required for the battle.

("For by wise counsel you shall wage your war, and victory is in the abundance of counselors" - Proverbs 24:6, and likewise: "By cunning you shall make war for yourself," said Rabbi Assi, quoting Rabbi Yochanan: With whom do you find the war of the Torah? With one who has in his hand bundles of Mishnah - Sanhedrin 42a.)

בְּתַחְבּוּלוֹת תַּעֲשֶׂה לְךָ מִלְחָמָה

Definition (Hebrew)

חָשׁוּב לְהָכִין תָּכְנִיּוֹת מְתֻחְכָּמוֹת כְּדֵי לְנַצֵּחַ בַּמִּלְחָמָה. לֹא דַּי בְּכֹחַ חָזָק אֶלָּא דְּרוּשָׁה תָּכְנִית חֲכָמָה בַּמַּעֲרָכָה.

(" כִּי בְתַחְבֻּלוֹת תַּעֲשֶׂה לְּךָ מִלְחָמָה וּתְשׁוּעָה בְּרֹב יוֹעֵץ"- מִשְׁלֵי כַּד ו, וְכֵן:"בְתַחְבֻּלוֹת תַּעֲשֶׂה לְּךָ מִלְחָמָה", אָמַר ר' אָסִי אָמַר ר' יוֹחָנָן : בְּמִי אַתָּה מוֹצֵא מִלְחַמְתָּהּ שֶׁל תּוֹרָה ? בְּמִי שֶׁיֵּשׁ בְּיָדוֹ חֲבִילוֹת שֶׁל מִשְׁנָה"-סַנְהֶדְרִין מב ע"א)
