Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch:
Naso: Is nezirut saintly or sinful?
Abstinence leads to holiness but isn’t holiness itself.
Abstinence leads to holiness but isn’t holiness itself.

What is the way we walk before G-d? How do we remember Him during the day?

The Rav famously said, there's no kedusha without hachana - no holiness without preparation. And now, where do we find ourselves on the ladder to holiness once Shavuot is over?

Sometimes being close means feeling far.

God demands we live a life of good deeds towards others and this upholds the world. Therefore, many commandments in the Torah are commandments of interpersonal nature.

Thoughts about Israel, symbols, thanking G-d and not missing our on holiness - to start your week.

The presence of a Torah scholar radiates holiness to his surroundings.
