Thank you for providing the historical context for the origins of Kol Nidrei. How wonderful that conversos were provided with an avenue for connection to Judaism in spite of their conversions. I am perplexed, however, about how this legalistic formulation pertains to me? I find the melody haunting; its deeply plaintive qualities express a heartfelt yearning that helps me connect with a deep yearning within myself, and for that I am profoundly appreciative and grateful. However, I have never found the words to be meaningful. Would you please convey how the content of Kol Nidrei could be meaningful to someone with no individual or familial history of conversion, for whom Judaism is deeply meaningful?
Inspiring
Yet again the Chief privileges and honours us with his inspiring words as we approach Yom Kippur. Gmar chasima tova
WoW! Live and learn! Thanx
Heartfelt thanks
It is not only Rabbi Sacks's heartfelt words but also his tone that speaks to me so urgently and warmly. Thank you, Rabbi, for enriching my Ten Days.
Thank you for these words of wisdom and advice, Rabbi Sachs. This is a very special year for me and I hope for everyone. A time to come back to Judaism or, as in my case, conversion. I pray that all of the people that are Jewish and live more secular lives have a wonderful epiphany and Teshuva to Judaism. L Shana Tova.
