This morning, we offer prescriptions from Torah portion Kedoshim for a holy path in life.

  • Stand up when somebody respectable comes into the room
  • Give charity to the poor
  • Respect the elderly

All of these are a way to show love and honor to specific groups. By helping the poor, you become holy. By showing respect to the elderly, you are teaching your children and grandchildren that we did not get here on our own. Be grateful for those who came before you.

This is good medicine for a healthy life.

20th day of the counting of Omer. 29 days till Shavuot.
