There is no blessing except in that which is hidden from the eye

There is no blessing except in that which is hidden from the eye

Blessing dwells when it is not publicized, or when it is found in something that is not revealed.

("And Rabbi Yitzchak said: There is no blessing except in that which is hidden from the eye, as it is said (Deuteronomy 28): 'The Lord will command blessing upon you in your barns'—Taanit 8b, and also: 'Not like my grandfather, peace be upon him, who never counted his money, for the sages said: There is no blessing except in that which is hidden from the eye'—Agnon, A Guest for the Night, 289)

הַבְּרָכָה שׂוֹרָה כַּאֲשֶׁר הִיא אֵינָהּ מְפֻרְסֶמֶת, אוֹ כְּשֶׁהִיא נִמְצֵאת בִּדְבַר שֶׁאֵינוֹ מְפֻרְסָם.

("וְאָמַר רַבִּי יִצְחָק אֵין הַבְּרָכָה מְצוּיָה אֶלָּא בְּדָבָר הַסָּמוּי מִן הָעַיִן שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (דְּבָרִים כֹּחַ) יַצּוּ ה' אִתְּךָ אֶת הַבְּרָכָה בַּאֲסָמֶיךָ"-תַּעֲנִית ח ע"ב, וְכֵן:"לֹא כְּזִקְנֵי עָלָיו הַשָּׁלוֹם שֶׁלֹּא מָנָה מְעוֹתָיו מֵעוֹלָם, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁאָמְרוּ חֲכָמִים, אֵין הַבְּרָכָה מְצוּיָה אֶלָּא בְּדָבָר הַסָּמוּי מִן הָעַיִן"- עַגְנוֹן/ אֹרַח נָטָה לָלוּן, 289)
