Emor – אֱמֹר (Leviticus 21:1−24:23)
This Week’s Torah Portion: Emor – אֱמֹר (Leviticus 21:1−24:23)
Emor is about the laws of the priests. The priests who serve Adonai, our God, can not become impure by having contact with death, and they are not allowed to drink wine or Alcohol while serving God.
Judaism is about life and the sacredness of life, here and now. Our tradition teaches us that connecting with God and spiritual life should be achieved in the real world, not by avoiding life but in reality and daily life.
