Listen, O heavens, and I will speak! And let the earth hear the words of my mouth! (Deuteronomy 31:2) The word of G-d from Mount Sinai speaks to us constantly, day and night, calling upon us to repent. It is up to us to hear this voice. Man himself has a heavenly, spiritual side to whom G-d addresses: Listen, O heavens, and I will speak! And man has an earthly, physical side which can weigh him down, to which G-d speaks, And let the earth hear the words of my mouth! G-d loves both aspects of man. His voice can be heard, if we but choose to listen. Haazinu (Deuteronomy 31:2-35:52) Parashat Ha'azinu is read on Shabbat: Tishrei 12, 5769/October 11, 2008 http://www.templeinstitute.org/
