NOTE: Each day from Rosh Hashanah to Yom Kippur I will be posting an inspiring Jewish text along with a few questions for reflection. Feel free to answer and discuss here, or to use these questions for your own reflection/journaling. These texts are also being posted on my Facebook page.
TEXT 3: Pirke Avot 2:4 (Talmudic compilation of the Rabbi’s favourite sayings.)
“Hillel said: Do not separate yourself from the community.”
QUESTIONS FOR REFLECTION:
- Why do you think community is so important in Jewish life?
- A pandemic makes for very lonely times. How have you built community during these months?
