Manna in the Desert

This Shabbes is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It follows by a day the provisional determination of the International Court of Justice of the United Nations that Israel may be committing, or on the way to committing, genocide in Gaza. And it is Shabbat Shirah, the Shabbat of Song, the Shabbat of deliverance, the Shabbat of Mi Chamocha. Oh what a frightening, saddening time to offer up songs of praise!
