Kol Nidre - All Vows
by: Cantor Israel Nachman
All personal vows, oaths, and promises that we made unwittingly, rashly, or unknowingly during the past year, knowing that we cannot fulfill them according to our original declaration, should be considered null and void in the mind of HaShem and ourselves with the thought in mind that such rash decisions will try to be avoided in this new year.

Parshat Naso is the longest single parsha in the Torah, clocking in at 176 verses. That’s Torah’s way of saying, “Hey, you might want to take a long , serious and contemplative look at what you’re about to learn.”

This Torah portion is a powder keg of rebellion, ego, Divine smackdowns, and deep theological reflection. It’s more than just a cautionary tale, it’s a microscope on the human soul, power, leadership, and holiness.

So, what makes us Jews think we’re right when it comes to holy living? The short answer? We don’t think we’re right, we think we’re obligated.
