For the People of Iran
Va’era 5786
The people of Iran are begging us to turn towards them, our hearts open to their pain. They deserve our solidarity and support, our identification with their struggle. Because human life is precious. And we, who love life, must always be on the side of those who love life.

The Midwives Birthed Into the World More Than Those Hebrew Babies
Parashat Shemot 5786 – A seemingly superfluous sidebar in our grand narrative in fact models what we most need to remember in a time of tyranny: There will emerge a vast moral vacuum. Step into it. Use the power you do have to muck up the machinery of injustice. Lean into faith. And remember that goodness, courage, and integrity are contagious. This is how we push back against the darkness.
