Rabbi Susan Nanus: What Have I Done? What Have I Become?

Rabbi Jonah of Gerona said, "One must ask oneself, "What have I done? What have I become?" This past week, we entered into the month of Elul, the last month of the Jewish year before Rosh Hashanah, and what I would call the gateway into a powerful Jewish spiritual dimension.Though there are no holidays during Elul, every day is a holy day during which we have an opportunity to review our life choices during the past year, reflect on how we behaved, how we treated others, and honestly assess whether or not we fulfilled our mandate and obligation as Jews – to perform good deeds and bring light into the world.Each week, a member of the clergy offers their personal perspective on a topic of their choice, such as the week's Torah portion, a Jewish holiday, ritual, custom, or history.
