Shabbat Shalom - Words of Wisdom From Abraham Joshua Heschel

Shabbat Shalom Today's "Words of Wisdom" are from Abraham Joshua Heschel as quoted in Shema Yisrael, the Siddur published by Temple Israel of West Bloomfield, Michigan.

"TO CELEBRATE TIME RATHER THAN SPACE"

The meaning of the Sabbath is to celebrate time rather than space. Six days a week we live under the tyranny of things of space: on the Sabbath we try to become attuned to holiness in time. It is a day when we are called upon to share in what is eternal in time, to turn from the results of Creation, to the mystery of Creation; from the world of creation to the creation of the world.


Shabbat Shalom: Rest and Renew
