Galut: Leviticus 25:1 – 27,34 || Jeremiah 16:19 –17:34
Commentary by Rabbi Chaim Richman for The Temple Institute, Jerusalem, Israel:
«The life force that G-d bestows upon all creation transcends time and space and invests all creation with holiness.

«The book of Leviticus concludes with a stark but promising choice: Either regard life as void of meaning, empty of purpose, vacant, meaningless and futile and discover that life regards you likewise, and suffer the torturous consequences, or “follow My [G-d’s] statutes and observe My commandments and perform them,” and see the purpose and holiness in life, and G-d will bless you with all good things»…more:
