The psalmist asks God to grant him the Torah graciously, which the tradition reads as seeing the Torah as a gift too. Interpretation: Tradition reads Jacob's words as humble thanks. It teaches that people should copy God's kindness by lending and giving freely. In the primary lessons: in tales a king or lady receives guests graciously, with courtesy and kindness: the king graciously ordered a feast
