The Chofetz Chaim on LEARNING TORAH

IT PAYS TO LEARN TORAH

The Chofetz Chaim:

Every minute of learning Torah is = 1000 mitzvot

Half an hour not learning is = 30,000 mitzvot lost

If someone steals one of your 30,000 mitzvot, the penalty by beis din is 10 gold coins = 10 oz gold, $1200 an ounce = $12,000 per one mitzva, x 30,000 mitzvot =$360,000,000
