This Week’s Torah Portion: Nitzavim – Vayeilech- נִצָּבִים – וַיֵּלֶךְ (Deuteronomy 29:9–30:20, 31:1–30)

“Those who are standing here with us this day before the ETERNAL our God and withthose who are not with us here this day”. (Deuteronomy 29:14)

We all stood together in Sinai before God (even if it did not happen), together, we are all part of the covenant of our people. The covenant includes those who chose to stand with us, and those who chose not to. It is our job to include everyone.

Parsha Nitzavim – Vayeilech – נִצָּבִים – וַיֵּלֶךְ Summary:

Moses tells the assembled people that God’s covenant speaks to them and to all of the generations who will follow. (29:9–14) God warns the Israelites that they will be punished if they act idolatrously, the way the inhabitants of the other nations do. (29:15–28) Moses reassures the people that God will not forsake them and that they can attain blessings by following God’s commandments. (30:1–20) Moses prepares the people for his death and announces that Joshua will succeed him. (31:1–8) Moses instructs the priests and the elders regarding the importance of reading the Torah. (31:9–13) God informs Moses that upon his death, the people will commit idolatry and “many evils and troubles shall befall them.” God tells Moses to teach the people a poem that will “be My witness.” (31:14–30) “Those who are standing here with us this day before the ETERNAL our God and withthose who are not with us here this day”. (Deuteronomy 29:14) We all stood together in Sinai before God (even if it did not happen), together, we are all part of the covenant of our people. The covenant includes those who chose to stand with us, and those who chose not to. It is our job to include everyone.
