Parshat Nitzavim



Parshat Nitzavim is read,
On the Shabbos before the year's head,
"You are ALL standing today"
Refers to Rosh Hashana day.

We will be judged favorably,
When we stand together in unity,
Because what brings the most joy to our heavenly father,
Is when we get along with each other.

Every word in the Torah is exact,
There are no extra words, it is a fact,
So why does the Torah mention ten categories of Jews,
Which the word כולכם״ - ALL of you" includes?

Every Jew is as special as can be,
With a unique mission and responsibility,
It doesn't matter who you are,
Every Jew is a shining star!

To a human body the Jewish people compare,
We each need to do our share,
To ensure that our body stays healthy,
Every organ, muscle and cell must function properly.

We have to love each other,
Because we are dependent on each other,
As great as the head may be,
To carry the body is the feet's responsibility.

Wether you are a leader,
Or a wood chopper,
You are needed and you matter,
Every minute of every hour!
