Time may move but experience lingers.
There’s something that outlives the physical part of the experience and remains present. Some call it memory but it’s so much more.
Passover 2024 came and left but in truth it never leaves. This year especially, coming on the heels of October 7th and the more recent shameful encampments on college campuses —Passover mustn’t leave us.
Jewish existence is a miracle. Preserved tirelessly and meticulously “Dor L’dor” from generation to generation for thousands of years withstanding the ultimate test — the test of time. It’s mind boggling if you think about it. Abraham, Sara, Moses, Rachel, the greats of our history all feeling comfortable at our Seders. The language, the content of the Haggadah, the matzah and the list goes on.
Time may move but truth endures. No, it’s not mere memories that we create when we connect with Torah and Mitzvahs — experience lingers and how. For the Jewish nation — the timeless nation — it’s something we intimately know. We are here, going nowhere, timelessness the only constant.
Time moves but the needle on our compass doesn’t!!
Next Year In Jerusalem!!
