Parshat nitzavimThis parashah is read together with Vayelech on the Shabbat before Rosh ha-Shanah, a time for taking to heart the commitment to God’s covenant. 9. all of you The whole of the community is greater than the sum of its parts. Each individual Israelite may be flawed and imperfect, but when all of them join together, the strengths and good qualities of each are reinforced and magnified. This also teaches that no one should say, “It is not my responsibility.” Everyone must do his or her share (Barukh of Medzibozh). 11. to enter into the covenant To reaffirm the covenant that was entered into at Mount Sinai. Just as a husband and wife need to reaffirm their commitment to each other when the early days of romantic attraction have given way to the day-to-day struggle to overcome accumulated disappointments, so too God and the people Israel need to reaffirm the covenant at this later date (Shneur Zalman). Taken from Etz Hayim Torah and Commentary

May you and your family be inscribed & sealed for a year of health, happiness and peace!לשנה טובה תכתבו ותחתמו
