Rebecca Good’s Rosh Hashanah Message for 2024
Rebecca Good shares her thoughts and inspiration for the Jewish New Year.
Psalm 150
Hallelujah
Praise God in His Sanctuary;
Praise God in the sky; His Stronghold
Even when a thousand of us died on Oct. 7.
Praise God for His mighty acts:
Praise God for His exceeding greatness
Even when there are hostages still being held by Hamas.
Praise God with blasts of the horn:
Praise God with harp and lyre
Even when we died in the gas chambers.
Praise God with timbrel and dance
Praise God with lute and pipe
Even when Jewish students cannot walk to class safely on our campuses.
Praise God with resounding cymbals:
Praise God with loud-clashing cymbals.
Even when Israel is being attacked from all sides but is being told to not defend itself.
Let all that breathes praise the Lord.
Hallelujah.
Praise God with blasts of the horn;
Praise God.
Rebecca Good is Head of Hebrew and Jewish Learning at The Temple Bremen Education Center.
