Stepping onto the Path of Love
For many years Rabbi Shefa Gold has been immersed in the holy text of the Song of Songs [Shir HaShirim] — learning its language, receiving its passion, and entering into the reality it describes: the giving and receiving of Love. Though the Song of Songs describes a very human relationship, it points us towards the refining of our relationship with God, the Great Mystery, a force that shines forth from within and beyond this world.
the whole world is watered and nourished.
Living our lives by the Song of Songs
Rabbi Akiva taught, “Had the Torah not been given, we could live our lives by the Song of Songs.” He called this sacred text, “The Holy of Holies,” hinting to us that we must put love at the center.
