וְשָׁמַעְתָּ בְקֹלוֹ כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי מְצַוְּךָ הַיּוֹם אַתָּה וּבָנֶיךָ בְּכָל לְבָבְךָ וּבְכָל נַפְשֶׁךָ:
וְשָׁב יְקֹוָק אֱלֹהֶיךָ אֶת שְׁבוּתְךָ וְרִחֲמֶךָ וְשָׁב וְקִבֶּצְךָ מִכָּל הָעַמִּים אֲשֶׁר הֱפִיצְךָ יְקֹוָק אֱלֹהֶיךָ שָׁמָּה:
וֶהֱבִיאֲךָ יְקֹוָק אֱלֹהֶיךָ אֶל הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר יָרְשׁוּ אֲבֹתֶיךָ וִירִשְׁתָּהּ וְהֵיטִבְךָ וְהִרְבְּךָ מֵאֲבֹתֶיךָ:
The Issur Ben Tzvi Hersh Tshuvos and Poskim Shiur
in anticipation of Shabbas Shuvah and Yom HaKippurim presented a special Drasha
that shed light on regret, remorse, repentance
and what it takes to rebuild ourselves
and channel our innate Ahavas Yisroel and Ahavas HaAretz into sublime service of the Most High
from one of North America’s most prominent Rabbanim and communal leaders
