Light to the Nations – with Rabbi Chaim Richman
Weekly series of short messages concerning the weekly Torah Portion.
“Listen, O heavens, and I will speak! And let the earth hear the words of my mouth!” (Deuteronomy 31:2) The word of G-d from Mount Sinai speaks to us constantly, day and night, calling upon us to repent. It is up to us to hear this voice. Man himself has a heavenly, spiritual side to whom G-d addresses: “Listen, O heavens, and I will speak!” And man has an earthly, physical side which can weigh him down, to which G-d speaks, “And let the earth hear the words of my mouth!” G-d loves both aspects of man. His voice can be heard, if we but choose to listen.

The sublime joy of repentance. Seen by some from the “outside” as a day of doom and gloom, Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year, is described by our sages as the happiest day of the year. What could possibly be more joyful than being given the Divine gift of being able to “come clean” before G-d? What happier moment could occur than the experience of G-d erasing our past sins and granting us the opportunity to begin again as righteous ones before Him?
