What’s Happening at Temple Sinai

Current Events
Torah from Sinai
- Friday, June 13, 2025 / 17 Sivan 5785I’ve shared this teaching in years past, but I found myself mentioning it this past Sunday in our interfaith service with the Christian Lutheran Church. I spontaneously responded to something the pastor said, and whatever it was led me to tell about the Abuhav synagogue and the prayer ‘Hareini Mikabel.’ I had no idea until I was scrolling through some old notes to prepare for this week’s email that I had connected it in the past precisely to this week’s Torah portion, Be’ha’alotcha,. I find this teaching important still: Imagine going through a gate into a calming courtyard. It is bursting with shrubs and flowers around trees, under which smooth benches in the shade invite you to sit with others for a while. Above the arched doorway to this, the beautiful Abuhav synagogue in the Galilee mountain town of Tzfat, are the words “I take upon myself the positive commandment to love my neighbor as myself.”
