Thoughts On Torah, G-d and Faith

  • Blessed are You, Adonai, our G-d, King of the universe, Who has sanctified us with His commandments and has permitted us to engross ourselves in the words of Torah. Please, Adonai, our G-d, sweeten the words of Your Torah in our mouth. May we and our offspring know Your Name and study your Torah for its own sake.

“The world was created on the 25th of Elul… Thus we find that Primal Adam was created on the first of Tishrei…at the 10th hour he disobeyed God’s command, at the 11th he was judged…. The Holy One said to him: Adam, you are a precedent for your progeny. Just as you came before me for judgment and I absolved you, so shall your progeny come before Me for judgment and I will absolve them. When? On Rosh Hashanah, ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month.’”
