Re-Jew-venated

Rabbi Alexandri said: “When you leave your things with another human being for safekeeping, even though they may have been new when they were delivered, they often return used and worn out. The Holy One, however, is different. When we leave things in God’s care, all worn out, the Holy One returns them to us new.
This is obvious.
A worker will work all day and come home tired. As he sleeps the worker is at peace since his soul is in the hands of the Holy One blessed be He. At dawn, the soul returns newly rejuvenated for the worker’s body. Torah teaches us that souls are renewed every morning; great is our dependence on You.  Tehillim Rabbah 23:7

“Between 1305 and the early 1800’s. the House of Taxis ran a form of pony express service all over Europe….   Its couriers clad in blue and silver uniforms, crisscrossed the continent carrying messages between princes and generals, merchants and money lenders.” –Alvin Toffler, The Third Wave We may think we are the first generation consumed by rapid communication but we are not.   Throughout our history it has been a priority. Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
