#6 - The Problem of Erasing God's Name

from Climb Sinai: The Big Ideas of Judaism · host Rabbi Jack Cohen EdM

Based on Mishnah Torah I: Book of Knowledge, the Laws of Foundations of Torah, Ch. 6 We can understand that God is Holy, but isn't His Name just ink on a page? How can there be holiness to written symbols? Symbolism matters. Our actions are constantly representing our intentions and our ideas. Becoming sensitive to those things that bear God's Name maintains our delicate sensitivity to God. As we saw above, we have been given the power to sanctify God's Name, or the opposite.
