Archive for ‍‍ Elul 5775 / Tishre 5776 - September 2015

Yom Kippur, the awesome day of atonement is the Holy of Holies in the dimension of time and soul, the one day of the year in which we can enter our innermost holy sanctum of self, and reemerge, not only unscathed, but cleansed and renewed. Our future and our past is ours to write and rewrite, if we but dare to see ourselves as the blessed creatures G-d intended us.

May G-d inscribe us all in the Book of Life and bless us all with a good and sweet new year!

It is Moshe’s last day on earth, and as he prepares to part from his beloved people, he also relays to Israel the final two commandments of Torah: the once-every-seven-years Hakhel gathering of all Israel for the reading of the entire Torah by the king of Israel in the Holy Temple, and the writing of a complete sefer Torah by each and every member of the nation of Israel. These two seemingly unrelated commandments together are part of an important message concerning the nature and potential of Shabbat Shuva (the Sabbath of Repentance) that occurs every year during the ‘Ten Days of Repentance’ between Rosh HaShana and Yom Kippur.

We are all standing here today before G-d, about to enter the land of Israel and about to bring in the new year by declaring G-d’s sovereignty over all of creation. The messages of parashat Nitzavim – entering a covenant with G-d, taking responsibility for ourselves and for one another, and acknowledging that the perfection of creation is in man’s ability to do teshuvah – to return to G-d – are the very same messages of Rosh HaShana, the awesome day on which all mankind stands before G-d and acknowledges that He is King and we are His beloved servants.

The nation of Israel’s purpose for entering and inheriting the land of Israel is literally written on stone and made into an altar to G-d, designed to broadcast to the world that there is One G-d and that He is the Master of all creation.
