Behaalotecha – Missed Opportunity?




© Copyright Jewish Discovery Center -Chabad of the Abingtons, all rights reserved.

In our parshah this week, we find a group of Jews complaining that they missed their chance to bring the Passover offering. They were quite upset that they couldn’t participate in the offering due to their innocuous state of ritual impurity.

When Moses forwards their complaint to G-d, he receives a surprising response. Tune in to this week's ParshahCast and learn a powerful lesson about missed opportunities, one that is relevant all year round!

"never too late"
"Never too late" ...true , but ...
"Never too early" ... better!
This week's ChabadCast was both profound in its message and engaging in its explanation for "the second passover". The opportunity for another chance to get things on track ... focused ..and "right" again is liberating , comforting and ... challenging!
Thanks for another in this series of "right to the point" commentaries!
