Rosh HaShana: Sound the Shofar, Wordless Breath of Creation p. 2

Nitzavim speaks of idolatry. Today’s idolatry is the denial of G-d. The Baal Shem Tov taught that thoughts of apostasy are no more and no less than a moment of Divine judgment, (in truth a test and a way back to G-d).

Focus on Rosh HaShana and the Holy Temple: The foundation stone - where and when it all began - the first point of creation, the place of the altar, the place and the day of Adam’s creation. Little wonder all Adam’s descendants are judged on this day! Adam’s offering, Cain and Abel’s offering, Noah’s offering, and the binding of Isaac, all took place here and now, on Rosh HaShana, on Mount Moriah, in the very place of the altar, and on this day the barren matriarchs were all remembered with seed! On the steps of the Sanctuary: The unique commandmant of blowing the shofar at the Holy Temple: “before the King – Hashem” in the company of silver trumpets!

The 25th day of Elul marks the first day of creation and Rosh HaShana marks the birthday of Adam. All six days of creation are taking place now! We can be witnesses to these days just as the “men of distinction” were witnesses in the Holy Temple during the daily Tamid offering.

Teshuva - repentence - and turning back the clock: When our repentance is motivated by fear of G-d – He recalibrates our evil deeds as if they were only mistakes; When our repentance is motivated by love of G-d – our evil deeds are transformed by Him into merits!

Sounding the shofar – a wordless tribute to the one King, recreating the breath of life, and retracing its path from the narrow to the expansive – sweetening the judgment!

Temple Talk
Even when we sin, we still believe in G-d, whose presence is everywhere. Elul: The deeper repentance of understanding: Repenting not only for sin -- but for what we did right! Staying on fire for Hashem and not getting cooled off by Amalek... and going up to the Temple Mount as an answer to Amalek.
