The Hebrew phrase “Mazal tov” which many translate as good luck, is not found in the Biblical Hebrew language. This is more of a Yiddish word that evolved many years after the Old Testament was written and while the original meaning was good fortune or good luck, the basic understanding was that you would be showered with blessings. The Hebrew people of our past never relied on luck, they believed that the Creator was in control of everything. When they were obedient, they were blessed and when they disobeyed the Creator they received their punishment. That is a lesson we should remember for our lives as well.
