Parshas Ki Savo (5766)
By Mordechai Dolinsky
It is imperative to appeal for Divine assistance for understanding and having the true insight as to what is expected of us in this present period of time, for our Chodesh Elul avoda, in preparation for Rosh Hashana. The fact that this constantly changes is one of the most important foundations of life.
To a large degree we are judged on our general principles, goals and values. This can be the thought behind the Medrash in our sedra that for the reward of attending the Bais Medrash in this world, you will be rewarded to do so in Olam Haba. Teshuva shouts our value system and therefore has unique significance in Elul.
Have a wonderful Shabbos, a successful Elul and a wonderful New Year.
