So, as I stood there at this Torah, this
Shabbat, I realized that Shimon and
Ley's act is not a commandment for
future generations. It's a mirror for
our generation, for all of us. It asks
us whether we still remember what it
means to live by principle, not
convenience. It challenges us to to ask,
do we feel outrage when something holy
is violated or have we become experts at
rationalizing it away and just living
with it, putting our heads down and just
moving forward? We have to ask ourselves
if we feel unbridled righteous
indignation when a heathen Philistine
would so much dare to touch the toenail
of a daughter of Israel. And if we
don't, why not? My name is Ari and I
live here on the edge of the Judeian
frontier. The final prophecy is
manifesting before our eyes as the
righteous of the nations are coming
together with humble hearts here in the
land of Israel fellowship. I'm inviting
you to join us to experience the beauty
and the holiness and the magnificence of
our fellowship.
