This morning we explore the unnecessarily repeated use of the word Achichah (brother or sister) in the command to return a lost object to its owner. Rabbi Matisyahu Salamon explains this word in the Torah does not refer to a blood relative, but to one with whom we share a kinship of purpose, and for whom we would do anything to help. This is how we should feel toward each other. Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law. ADATH is a modern orthodox synagogue community in suburban Montreal, providing Judaism for the next generation.

This evening we examine the difficult Mitzvah of following the Halachic ruling of your rabbi, even when he is wrong. When does this apply and when does it not apply. We explain the distinction between a dispute of east v. west, and a dispute between right v. left. We use the example of Rav Herschel Schachter and how he approached dealing with myriad questions during covid. Then we trace the single theme of the entire variegated High Holiday season, with its multiple Holidays, distinct Mitzvot and moods, all encapsulated in Psalm 27, the roadmap from Ellul to Shmini Atzeret, and where we hope to arrive at the completion.

This evening we explore reasons why the Torah prohibits not only false words by empty words, using Mishb'tzei Shlomo. From Rav Aharon Lichtenstein we learn the purpose of appreciating every stop along the journey from Egypt to Israel using the analogy of a car rental, and every stop in our lives, not just the end goal. We then try to convey what cannot be conveyed in words - our feelings and mood as we approach Tisha B'Av, our national day of mourning for the destruction of the Bet HaMikdash, first and second, and so much more. We do this with magnificent and evocative art by Dale Chihuly, and wonderful stories by Sarah Tuttle-Singer.
