Awakening children to repentance (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Throughout the year, and especially in preparation for Yom Kippur, parents want to awaken their children to repentance, and teachers and rabbis likewise want to awaken their students. It is said that in the past, parents and teachers had greater authority, and children obeyed their parents and students listened to their teachers. Everything was therefore simpler and better, and so “everyone was righteous." However, King Solomon already warned in Proverbs: “Do not say, ‘Why were the former days b

Teachers Emulate the Attributes of the Holy One, Blessed Be He As the beginning of the school year approaches, it is worthwhile for all Jews, and especially for parents and teachers, to remind themselves of the great virtue of teachers, who emulate the attributes of the Holy One, Blessed Be He, and continue His will in the world. When our Sages wanted to describe, by way of analogy, God’s activities during the hours of the day, and thereby express the values that are important before God, they s
