RABBI ARTHUR SEGAL: DEREK ERETZ: GREAT IS PEACE: JEWISH SPIRITUALITY

 

Shalom and Shavuah Tov. Peace and a good week: The title of this coming Shabbat's Torah (Bible) portion (Gen 12-17) takes its name from God's command to Abraham. "Lech Lecha!--Go for yourself!" This sums up the choice that each of us has daily. As adults, no one is forcing spirituality and religion upon us. No one is forcing us to live an ethical life. No one even is demanding that we study Torah/Bible. We have freedom of choice. We decide, for ourselves, to go or to do, or not to go or not to do. This is no different than the choice that Abraham had to make 3700 or so years ago. What choice will we make today?
