Telling Our Whole Story
August 7, 2020
“When we tell our own stories, are we being honest with ourselves?” asks Rabbi Shira Gluck. In this week’s parashah, Moses recounts his receiving the Ten Commandments and then smashing them. Why? “For the sake of his own wholeness. The broken pieces were not buried or kept secret; they were placed in the Ark of the Covenant. We can truly thrive only when we remember — and tell — our whole story.”
