This week, in the last moments of the Torah, we read of the last breath of Moses. Deuteronomy 34:7-8 Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died; his eyes were undimmed and his vigor unabated. And the Israelites bewailed Moses in the plains of Moab for thirty days. So...
May our tents and our hearts stay open, our journeys be fruitful and our path the path of Torah. Chag Sameach! Happy Sukkot!
Shabbat of return, shabbat of repentance. Wishing everyone a shabbat of love and renewal.
Wishing everyone a healthy, meaningful and joyful new year.
כִּֽי־קָר֥וֹב אֵלֶ֛יךָ הַדָּבָ֖ר מְאֹ֑ד בְּפִ֥יךָ וּבִֽלְבָבְךָ֖ לַעֲשֹׂתֽוֹ׃ The thing is very close to you, in your mouth and in your heart, to observe it. May we all feel a feeling of return, a feeling of recreation, in this final Shabbat of the year. Shabbat shalom!
