Going to the Mountains to Experience the Divine
Manage episode 401978267 series 3428851
In this week’s episode of Ḥoni’s Circle we study the first half of Psalm 24. We find this psalm, recited when bringing the Torah back to the ark on non-shabbat days, to be full of messages pertinent to the climate cause, from the acknowledgement that all the Earth belongs to the divine, to its referral to the interplay between land and water, to it’s reference to a “wild heart.” We end by discussing how the image of a person with a wild heart and clean hands bringing a gift back from the mountain of the Lord, can be a metaphor for the leadership role each of us can take in the climate movement, and how this needs to be done with an open mind, a sense of empathy, and integrity.
