Shabbat

Whats the difference? AND TO ME?

 

What country has laws DEMANDING you be HAPPY at least SOME times?

 

What country or town has laws that YOU MUST HELP OTHERS?

 

OK - Morality? WHERE DO YOU SEE MORALITY TAUGHT TODAY?

Moscow?

Iraq?

Washington?

South Africa? Saudi Arabia? FRANCE? the UN?

Do not oppress the widow or the orphan!

DO NOT BRIBE (and to judges - do not decide based on the politically correct!)

 

And G-d sent Moses into the clouds above Mount Sinai ... while the elders were put on hold ...

    no more "that's how it has always been done" - BUT HOLY LAWS

There are laws with feeling and there is wisdom in how to apply them

NOBODY IS PERFECT - BUT STRIVE FOR PERFECTION

 

AND no one may hide behind the ALTAR OF HASHEM - if they commit perfidy!
(May Im Mizbe hee tekach - a murderer ...  ISIS ... the UN ... the League of Nations and those who try to steal ISRAEL

by claiming YUDENREIN - the peoples who conquerred the Middle East by murder and forced conversions -

and still aspire to continue ...)

NOBODY IS PERFECT - BUT STRIVE FOR JUSTICE our portion shouts to us.

 

(and tells us to get ready for PURIM in 2 weeks with JOY!)

May the Almighty guude our actions and spread love of justice to the world -

and the Almighty love of JOY and THANKS

Love and Shabbos and PURIM WISHES
