This week’s Torah Portion is about Noah!
Noach in Hebrew translation is comfortable which goes on to teach us that Noah lived in the generation of the flood as the world was filled with violence. Because of this… G-D decided to destroy the earth. only Noah and his family found favor with G-D. Noah was a righteous man and perfect in his generation and Noah walked with G-D. Some Scholars argue that Noah was a credit to his generation and others discredit him. Noah made very little effort to plead with G-D on behalf of his generation. he did not interfere with the welfare of others like Abraham or Moses did…which requalifies righteousness to a whole new level! on the other hand… Torah teaches us to always judge favorably! therefore… Noah was a righteous man and perfect in his generation.

This weeks Torah portion teaches us that G-D created the world according to his plan. G-D looked into the Torah…used it as his blueprint to creation and the rest is history! Ultimately the only choice we have in G-Ds plan is to choose to cling to the world and all its trappings or to keep G-D first🙏

this weeks Torah Portion is a poetic admonition that Moses addressed to Israel before he passed away from this world. He said…Gather to me all the leaders of your tribes and your officers that I may speak these words to them and call the heavens and the earth as witnesses for them. Listen… give ear O’Heaven and Hear O’Earth. Moses was attached to the heavens… he was tuned in to the morality and the responsibility that he had as a leader of the nation of Israel. there is a difference between hearing and listening. when we hear we are the masses…connected to the physical and the mundane… when we listen we are connected to the morality in the highest and purest form. we are all leaders… we have some sort of influence on our children… our friends… our colleagues… we cannot adhere to the false pretense to do as I say and not as I do… if we want to have a positive influence in this world and live up to our truest potential… we must set an example by choosing to do Right! inspired from: Torah on the line. 905 731 7777

This week’s Torah portion establishes how Moses finished putting the Torah into writing handing it to the Levites to be placed in the Ark in the Holy of Holies! Moses lived to be 120 years old… he continued his service to the Jewish people until the day of his passing. all encompassing the nation of Israel as one with G-D encouraging a connection of authority and rebuke to those who needed it. we all stand this day before the Lord our G-D! acknowledging that Jewish unity breaks through social distinctions, and the blessings of Rosh Hashana will spread itself throughout the year!
