Be strong

Be Strong!

The parshah of Vayechi marks the conclusion of the book of Bereishit, the first of the Five Books of the Torah. Upon completing each of the Five Books, it is customary to wish each other, “chazak, chazak, venitchazek – be strong, be strong, and may we be strengthened.”

May we all be blessed with the strength needed to establish the vital Jewish infrastructure required for nurturing the next generation of Jews.

May we truly merit to see what Jacob yearned to reveal to his sons – that which is hinted in the word Goshnah – the coming of our righteous Moshiach, may it happen speedily in our days! Amen.
