В”Н Erev Shabbat о 7th of Tishrei, 5784; September 22nd, 2023 iving Jewish): Tell your Children Prayer from the Heart In the first year after Perestroika be- came a reality, one of my friends was leading the Kol Nidrei services in the main synagogue of Kiev on Yom Kip- pur night. Old men who remembered accompa- nying their parents to shul as children, young families who wanted a taste of their heritage after more than a half- century of Soviet persecution, and youth in their teens who barely knew they were Jewish, flocked to the syna- gogue. Despite the best intentions, Hebrew- Russian prayerbooks, and explanations in Russian, he could sense that the people were becoming bored, and within their hearts a question was be- ginning to take form: Were these the prayers that they had yearned for so many years to be allowed to say? 31:17) The Baal Shem Tov used to say that if As the Sifri explains, “since Moshe was close to heaven he said, ‘Listen, О heav- ens’, and since he was distant from earth he said, ‘let the earth hear the words of my mouth.” Accepting the Yoke tg How do we reconcile Moshe’s “distance” from the earth (which is portrayed here as a value to aspire to) with the Chassidic interpretation that the “earth” refers to ob- servance of the mitzvot?

Rabbi Dov Ber, the second Lubavitcher Rebbe, added his interpretation on this verse: "Because my G-d is not in the midst of me -- because my own face is dirty and my own connection to G-d and holiness is flawed, have these evils over- taken me -- that is why I find fault in oth- ers. The Rebbe took one look at that one and said, "this is a mezuzah!" Seeing the messenger's disappointment with his inferior mezuzah, the Alter Rebbe reassured him that they were identical aside from one difference: at the Alter Rebbe's request, his mezuzah was not written on a cloudy day.
