Parsha:

Bo 

Description

Sfas Emes from 5658. The first mitzvah (commandment) given to the Jews as a people. Monthly vs. annual renewal. The excitement of a new beginning so that we don't drown in nature and habit. Why is it that the time-period of 30 days is important? The need for something new at all times is not hischadshus (renewal). Shlomo Hamelech - there is nothing new under the sun. Our generation's super-shortened attention span. Hachodesh hazeh - this month - the secret to the fountain of youth and renewal. Ge'ulah (redemption) - our ability, allways and any time, to be better. Our true place is not in this world, but the next. "Waking up" the day.
