Bechukotai
We may walk down the beaten path or we may walk up the never-beaten path. The choice is ours.
Every day is a crossroads: When we walk with the Divine, the destinations are beautiful and prosperous. The opposite is also true, a tangle of thorns and rebukes, lost in a foreign land. That is no ultimate destination, but rather a detour – albeit a very painful one – through the harshness of material cynicism. There is an eternal bond and no off-road outback can break that.
