THIS WEEK'S SIDRA SUMMARY
by Rabbi Hyman

Moses renews the covenant between the Children of Israel and G-d, emphasising the collective responsibility that rests upon every individual of the nation.

He warns the people that if they stray from the Torah then they would be exiled from the Land and would suffer terribly, as described in last week’s Sidra, Ki Tavo.

However ultimately, the people will repent and will be gathered by G-d and brought back to the Land.

Moses, now nearing his final testimony at the age of 120 years old, encourages Joshua and the people to remain steadfast and courageous in their mission to conquer the Land. He continues with a commandment, known as the Mitzvah of “Hakhel” (assembly) that was to be held on the Sukkot after the sabbatical year (shemitta). This involved a public reading of sections of the Torah whilst the nation had gathered together for the festival in the Temple.

Moses is then commanded by G-d to write a “Song” (Shirah), which will act as a testimony to His covenant with the Children of Israel – this appears in next week’s Sidra Ha’azinu.


Samuel Masters will read the Haftorah
Samuel Masters will recite Anim Zemirot


If you would like to recite a Haftorah, please inform Felton Wald in Shul,
or contact the Shul Office and ask for the message to be passed on.

Please note that the Haftorah list is usually compiled several months in advance.

If you know a youngster who would like to recite Anim Zemirot, please contact Kenneth Black before the Tuesday of the week concerned to see if it is available.

There will be a Kiddush in the Mark Lewis Banqueting Suite after the Service,
