R. Tali Adler on Parashat Ha'azinu: Living in Between

Homeless in life, Moshe is fated to remain without a home even in death.That, perhaps, is the most difficult part of God’s decree: not that Moshe must die, a fate that all human beings share.  Not that he must die outside of the land: Ya’akov and Yosef also died far from Israel.What is most difficult about Moshe’s death is that, even in death, he cannot go home.
