The Clock of History Awaits its Promised Rendez-Vous
The Clock of History Awaits its Promised Rendez-Vous
(Reflection on the Haftorah for Torah Portions Acharei Mot and Kedoshim)
(Amos 9:7 to 15)
Arrogance severs so many circuits
Of understanding, stifling individual
And collective future goal progress
Of a nation’s trajectory to its destiny.
The evolution of an individual
And a nation to actualization
Depends on the restraints morality
Has set by law for society to be just.
The clock of history ticks as it awaits
The unfolding of the Divine written promise,
Signed, sealed and delivered on the Torah’s parchment
For an era of security and peace.
Wherein the Sanctuary returns
Blessing the nation and its inhabitants
With the realization of its actualization.
