We entered Rosh Hashanah and declared that Hashem is our King and we are His subjects, allowing us to move into Yom Kippur so we could reflect on our previous year and discern when our thoughts, words, and actions were not congruent with that truth. And now it is time to enter our Sukkahs, designed like His arm reaching around us and holding us close. It’s time to recalibrate back to the truth that the only power is the Almighty and that what is central to our lives is not our careers, politics, and other material pursuits, but simply to serve the King by fulfilling his Torah. In this episode, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explains why Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Hoshana Raba, Shmini Atzeret, and Simchat Torah are all connected and much, much more.
This podcast was recorded for the Shema Podcast by Dan Kullman, President of TORCH, and joined with Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Executive Director of TORCH.
Recorded on September 29, 2020, in Houston, Texas
