We are all created in the Image of G-d, and there is nothing truly real besides Him. Today is the fast day of the 9th of Av. Please join in begging the Creator to redeem the world.

Humanity desperately needs redemption.

(From the Aleinu prayer, recited by Torah Jews three times a day.)

I just watched the following video and I was very moved. It is about yearning for our Father to come home - yearning for all of humanity to know and love Him, for the whole world to filled with the knowledge of the Creator.

I urge you to watch it today - it’s well worth it. Don’t miss the part with the tune for the 12th of the “Ani Ma’amins” (13 Principles of Faith, the prayer shown above) composed on the death train during the Holocaust, starting at 1:26 in the video.

Rabbi Smith frequently teaches from the writings of Rabbi Yonason Shteif, Chief Rabbi of Budapest, Hungary, before the Holocaust. In this video, too, he gives over Rabbi Shteif’s lessons very powerfully.

May we merit to see the fulfillment of our prayers and the salvation of humanity very quickly.
