Wake Up!!!

Today, Yom Kippur, an account of the service in the Temple was read, and we remember the "good old days" when we had a Kohen Gadol (High Priest) to represent the Jewish people before God (not an authoritarian figure- a spiritual one!). After that, we read an account of The Ten Martyrs murdered by the Romans for their cultural conservationism. This serves to awaken us and remind us that our holiest site, the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, is still not safe for Jews. This news brings the matter to the fore. May this coming year bring redemption and truth.
