There is no word “D’agah,” or worry in the Torah

 The Torah, the five books of Moses, is the cornerstone of Judaism. It may be surprising, but in the Torah there is absolutely no mention, in any form, of the Hebrew word “D’agah,” or worry.

The Torah, the eternal lesson in life from the very Source of life, seems to be intent on teaching how damaging and how devastating it is to worry. And so, the Torah just ignores it!

And there are many instances and cases for people in the Torah to have legitimate causes of worry.
