7 September 2023 · A sentence from the teachings of Rav Kook

Parashat Nitzavim-Vayelech

„The main falls come because one does not believe in the ease of repentance.”From Orot HaTeshuvah 14:4

In this week's parashah there are wondrous verses: "For this commandment that I command you today is not too wondrous for you, nor is it far off" — verses that explain that the power of change is in our hands. "It is in your mouth and in your heart to do it." If we believe in ourselves, in our ability to make a change, in our ability to repair — the sky is the limit.
