Torah: The Air We Breathe

Avinu HaAv HaRachaman, HaM’racheim, racheim aleinu

We are now in a special time period, often referred to as “The Three Weeks.” Most of us are familiar with at least the basic halachos of this time period, as well as “The Nine Days” period, which is relevant to the last nine days, beginning on Rosh Chodesh Av. While we certainly must observe the halachos, we should strive to maximize the many growth opportunities available in both our relationship with Hashem and our relationships with our brothers and sisters in klal Yisrael. This is a time to foster baseless love of each other, to atone for the baseless hatred that was one of the causes of destruction.

A Plea for Passion

V’sein b’libeinu l’havin u’l’haskil, lishmoa lilmod u’l’lameid…

Instill in our hearts to understand and to elucidate, to listen, to learn, and to teach…

Seriously Anticipating Mashiach’s Arrival

 We are about to begin the Nine Days period prior to Tish’ah B’Av. May we see the salvation before this Tish’ah B’Av.
