Portion of Nitzavim-Vayelech – Double portion

In this portion the Almighty tells Moses … and Moses tells Joshua … and Moses
commands the Israelite people – TO SING!
This is a double portion – Nitzavim and Vayelech - and we – just like the Israelites of the desert - are standing before the Jewish New Year with a double "portion" before us – a double promise of our land of Milk and Honey – in Israel and in the exile - and a double threat of a violent world and a threat of poverty for so many.
G-d warns us that we will forsake H-m – and yet teaches us – because that is H-s way in the Torah – that to sing the song of the Almighty is to correct the evil of the world and within our rebellious souls which only want a little (or too much?) freedom…
With awe and LOVE – and a SONG in our hearts – let us all join in prayer and in song – thanking the Almighty that the rocket attacks on Israel were MIRACULOUSLY defeated with so few losses, thanking for the opportunity to DO GOOD this coming year, and for the G-dly gift of sharing a New Year with our loved ones.

- Ksiva Vachasima Tova - Shabbat Shalom
