Deuteronomy 32 || Hosea 14:2-10; Micah 7:18-20; Joel 2:15-27
Commentary by Rav Gedalia Meyer for The Temple Institute, Jerusalem, Israel:
«Ha’azinu – listen – literally, give ear – is the name of the song that Moshe composes and performs before Israel on the last day of his life. It opens with a paean to G-d’s greatness and closes with a declaration of G-d’s inescapable power and presence. The intermediate verses deal with a wayward Israel, a people who has lost its way, grown fat and abandoned G-d. But by Ha’azinu’s closing verses it becomes crystal clear that G-d’s ultimate control over our lives is too all inclusive to be ignored or taken for granted for long. Israel will always return to G-d and G-d will always take Israel back. Gemar Chatima Tova – Have a meaningful Yom Kippur, and may we all be written into the Book of Life!»…More:
