Parashat Nitzavim / פרשת נִצָּבִים
Read on 4 September 2021 / 27 Elul 5781.
Parashat Nitzavim is the 51st weekly Torah portion in the annual Jewish cycle of Torah reading.
Torah Portion: Deuteronomy 29:9-30:20 https://tikkun.io/#/r/5-29-9
In Parashat Nitzavim, Moses told the Israelites that all the people stood before God to enter into the covenant, violation of which would bring on curses, but if they returned to God and heeded God's commandments, then God would take them back in love and bring them together again from the ends of the world. Moses taught that this Instruction was not beyond reach, and Moses put before the Israelites life and death, blessing and curse, and exhorted them to choose life by loving God and heeding the commandments.
