The Snake and the Garden: לִשְׁמֹ֕ר אֶת־דֶּ֖רֶךְ עֵ֥ץ הַֽחַיִּֽים To guard over the way of the tree of life / Rabbi Noa Kushner Rosh Hashanah 5784
Read
You see, we've followed these voices, not to mention these leaders, at great cost
And we're already paying the price —
the accumulative and dramatic breakdown of social trust
in our institutions and in each other in this country
Doesn’t really matter who started it
The garden of America is beginning to evaporate around us
You see, like Eve, we have a choice:
It’s either ingesting the venom or being in the garden
We can’t do both
