MESSAGE FROM RABBI LOEWY:
Parshas: Devarim / Chazon
As we commence the book of Devarim, we read about Moshe’s final words to his people before his passing. When Moshe rebukes the nation for the sin of the spies, he tells them “all of you approached me and said let us send men ahead of us and let them spy out the land and bring word back to us”. Rashi comments that they all came in a disorderly and disrespectful fashion. Young were fighting against the elders and the elders pushed the leaders. This was quite different than the way they approached Mt. Sinai when receiving the Torah where all came together with unity and respect. Moshe is chastising the Jews for the sin that ultimately prohibited them from entering the land of Israel. One would think that he would focus less on their approach and more on the actual act of spying and speaking slander on the land. Perhaps the reason Moshe focused on this disorderly approach is because any time the Jews drift apart from one another the end result will always be failure. As the saying goes “united we stand, divided we fall”. As we approach yet another Tisha B’av, this idea must be going through our heads constantly. Now is the time to reunite with our brothers and sisters that we may have drifted from in the past. If we take the initiative and make peace, we have hastened the redemption and will merit to celebrate next year on the ninth of Av.
Have a Wonderful Shabbos!
