PARSHAS VAYEILECH-YOM KIPPUR ‫תשפ"ג‬ THE BEINONI AND HIS SEESAW The Rambam writes in Hilchos Teshuvah (3,3) ‫וכשם ששוקלין זכיות אדם ועונותיו בשעת מיתתו כך בכל שנה ושנה שוקלין עונות כל אחד ואחד מבאי העולם עם זכיותיו‬ ‫ביום טוב של ראש השנה מי שנמצא צדיק נחתם לחיים ומי שנמצא רשע נחתם למיתה והבינוני תולין אותו עד יום הכפורים‬ ‫אם עשה תשובה נחתם לחיים ואם לאו נחתם למיתה‬ The individual who falls into the category of ‫ בינוני‬is not written in the‫ספר החיים או ספר המות‬ on Rosh Hashanah but rather hangs in limbo until Yom Kippur for him to decide his own fate.

For him, even if at the moment of judgment he has a greater count of mitzvos than aveiros, he is nevertheless not considered a candidate for the Chasimah Tova. If so don't let the yetzer harah fool us into thinking since I do so many chassadim and mitzvos I am not worried about being sealed in the Book of Life. For him only teshuvah is the option in order to define himself to get a middas nefesh that is good, that warrants to be written with a chasima tovah. We can even say that one m
