Hoshanah Rabbah is the final day of pleading in the High Holiday season. It echoes Ne’ilah, when we pray that the gates of heaven, sha’arei shamayim, remain open to our voices.
As October 7 approaches, we are still carrying grief, praying for healing, and knocking on heaven’s door for strength, compassion, and peace. May our voices be heard.
Wishing you a Shabbat shalom and Hag Sameah.
