Another Chance
The final
reading in Va-yikra (Leviticus) for this cycle is a combination of parashat
Behar and Behukkotai. The subject from them that I’d like to touch on is debt
forgiveness. For the purposes of this blog, forgiveness in general. The book of
Va-yikra extensively covers commandments and how one is cleansed if the rules
are broken. In the days of the Temple ,
sacrifices were brought to Hashem. Our ancestors renewed themselves in the
mikveh. Today we observe the Day of Atonement and other means to be on a clean
slate. Hashem welcomes us back with open arms again and again and never turns
away. Let’s have the same spirit with our fellow man.
