Conversation
To welcome a guest is better than to welcome the Divine Presence.
The gates of prayer are never closed.
Rosa Aver, 14, who died in Auchwitz.
This is the story of a people which was scattered, over all the world and yet remained a single family; a nation which time and again was doomed to destruction and yet, out of ruins, rose to new life.
Uri Marx, 18, who died during the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.
You shall not eat the meat unless the slaughterer knows the law.
He who visits the sick takes away part of the suffering.
The gates of prayer are never closed, never scattered, doomed to destruction. This is the story of a man who is not really a slaughterer, knows the law, time and again; never closed, visits the sick, the rabbi that visits the sick, out of ruins, takes part of the suffering. The sick shall not eat at the gates of prayer to welcome the Divine Presence, yet remained a single family. A nation, knows the laws, rose to a new life, fears his community, takes part of the suffering, is not really a man, Uri Marx takes away the ruins. Doomed to destruction, the slaughterer does not disagree, is not really a man who died, 18, in Warsaw, in Auchwitz, remained a single family. The rabbi, Rosa Avner, who died, died in Auchwitz, 14, who died in the uprising, Uri Marx, the rabbi, doomed to destruction, remained a single family, died in the Warsaw Ghetto, died to welcome a guest, to welcome a Divine Presence, is better, died in conversation.
