All of us, and all the members of our communities, are struggling to deal with and respond to the tragedies that have befallen Israel and the world this past week. I am grateful to Dr. Moshe Sokolow, Fanya Gottesfeld Heller Chair in Jewish Education at Yeshiva University’s Azrieli Graduate School of Jewish Education and Administration, who accepted my invitation to compose two short reflections that I hope you will find helpful this coming Shabbat and beyond. I hope that these words and sentiments will resonate with you, and that you will find them to be meaningful. May we soon merit ultimate consolation and may we soon rejoice togetherכַּיָּמִים, אֲשֶׁר-נָחוּ בָהֶם הַיְּהוּדִים מֵאֹיְבֵיהֶם, וְהַחֹדֶשׁ אֲשֶׁר נֶהְפַּךְ לָהֶם מִיָּגוֹן לְשִׂמְחָה, וּמֵאֵבֶל לְיוֹם טוֹב.
