This Week’s Torah Portion: Haazinu – הַאֲזִינוּ (Deuteronomy 32:1–52)
Deuteronomy 32:52 “You may view the land from a distance, but you shall not enter it—the land that I am giving to the Israelite people”.
Moses does not get to enter the promised land, just to look from afar.
A well-lived life is when you get to fulfill many of your goals and wishes, and still have a few more in your ‘bucket list’ when your life ends.
