Parashas Haazinu :- Our Parsha this Shabbos between Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur is Parashas Haazinu . This Shabbos , before Yom Kippur is called Shabbat Shuvah , and reminds us that we have sinned and are to do Teshuvah ( ' Shuvah ' ) - Return to HaShem . The Haftorah contains the same idea of Teshuvah return to HaShem , and is found in Hosea 14 : 2 - 10 ; Joel 2 : 11 - 27 and Micah 7 : 18 - 20 . HaShem Instructed Moshe to write this Song of Haazinu , to remind our people , that when we stray from HaShem , the punishment that comes upon us , is due to our own wrong - doing . We are to change our wrongful ways and so , return in faithfulness to HaShem . Seeing that Moshe knew his time to return to HaShem was near , HaShem Instructed him to mention witnesses that will be there long after Moshe's present time and so , Moshe calls to Heaven and Earth to stand as witnessed to these words , for so says Moshe , " Haazinu HaShamaim Va'adabeira V'Tishma Ha'Aretz Imrei Fi , " - " Give ear , O Heavens , and I will speak ; and may the Earth hear the words of my mouth . " What a thing for a man to tell the Heaven and the Earth to stand and " Hear . " Only HaShem Commands His Creations , but Moshe , on Har Sinai , had earned their respect , when he silenced the Malachim Angels of Heaven And Earth , when they approached Moshe , to try dissuade him from bringing down to us , HaShem's Torah , and his words of persuasion , were such that he persuaded them of how Torah Was Written By HaSem , for humans to keep and how the Torah Is Israel's Guide to HaShem , and so , these Malachim Angels acceded to Moshe , and so Heaven and Earth would be the perfect witnesses to watch over that we keep it and be HaShem's Tools , of either Reward , or Punishment , if , Chas Ve Shalom , we don't . So Moshe said the perfect thing , in starting this song with them . We are told that there will be Ten Holy Songs Shira before the End Of Days . Adam wrote the first one in Gan Eiden , when he composed the Psalm ' Mizmor Shir Leyom HaShabbat , " for the Sabbath day . The Second Shira was sang at the Yam Suf by Moshe and the Children of Israel , after we were saved . The Third Shira , was sung in praise of the Well of Miriam. ( In Parashas Chukas ) . The Fourth Shira was this very Parsha Shira of Haazinu . The Fifth Shira was sung by Yehoshuah Joshua , in Givon , when he fought the Emorites and HaShem Commanded the Sun to stop in the sky . The Sixth Shira was by Devorah and Barak , when HaShem delivered their enemies into their hands , which also included Sisera , the Canaanite general ( Shoftim 5 ) . The Seventh Shira , was sung by Chana , when HaShem Gave her Shmuel , after being childless for many years ( Shmuel 2 ) . The Eighth Shira was composed by Dovid Ha Melech at the end of his life , in thanks to HaShem for saving him so many times from his enemies ( II Shmuel 22 ) . The Ninth Shira was written by Shlomo Ha Melech which was the well known ' Shir Ha Shirim . ' The Tenth and final Shir will be sung by the Jewish people when HaShem Redeems us from the present exile . ( Midrash Says - Devarim - Rabbi M . Weissman ) . We note that all the first nine Songs are called by the feminine gender ' Shira ' but the last Tenth one is called by the masculine ' Shir ' for it says in Yeshayahu Isaiah 26 : 1 , " On that day shall this Shir be sung in the land of Yehuda . " What a sweet way , HaShem Gave us to know when the True Moshiach finally comes. ( For no one may be called Moshiach , till the Final Days when Moshiach comes ( Yechezkel 34 , which must be before the Third Temple ) , for this last Shir , will be publicly known and sung only at the Time of Moshiach's Arrival , and only then will the one who is Moshiach , be able to be called Moshiach , not before . This is a secret sweetness of knowing the True Moshiach , for then , the final Tenth Shir will be sung , where the number ' Ten ' will signify the Coming of the End of Days , Completing Creation , that also started with Ten Pronouncements From HaShem , In Creating Creation , and Bringing us to the End of Days , with HaShem's Revelation , where we will remember clearly , HaShem's Revelation to the Jewish people , at Har Sinai , where HaShem Revealed to us , His Ten Commandments . May the End of Days come soon in our day , and may we all come to meet HaShem when we Jews finally sing this one and only Tenth Shir , with HaShem . Moshe asks that his teaching drop like rain , so it will penetrate within us , and his utterance flow like dew , so it may gently be with us always . , being the life-giving nourishment , that water is to nature . Moshe asks , that when he calls out HaShem's Name , greatness is to be ascribed to HaShem , which teaches us the power of a Brocha ( and the Commandment of saying Brachot ) and of the word " Amein , " for when someone says a Brocha , the one hearing it , must say ' Amein , ' which is also a reiteration of HaShem's Name , for the letters of ' Amein , ' spell out the words ' El Melech Ne'eman , ' - ' G-D , Faithful King ' ( which is also added to the start of the Shema when praying alone the full Shema ) . HaShem Is Our Rock , as Moshe teaches , Perfect is HaShem , in all He Does , and In His Every Judgement , even though we may not always understand . G-D Knows All . G-D Is Always Righteous And Fair . We are the blemished ones . Moshe warns that after his passing , when we grow in abundance in the Land , we will do wrong . Moshe Tells us to remember HaShem , our Master . Moshe Reminds us here , that it is HaShem , Who set the borders of all peoples . It is HaShem , who set the borders of the other nations , according the The Children of Israel . We see that in the fact that there are the 70 Nations , and when Yaakov came to Mitzraim , 70 souls are counted that started Yaakov's family of Jews . Moshe then tells us that HaShem's Portion , is His Jewish people , the children of Jacob , , who became HaShem's Covenanted people , " in a desert land and howling wilderness , " where is Har Sinai , when we became HaShem's Covenanted People , to Spread HaShem's Oneness and Light . Moshe Compares HaShem's Care of us Jews , as to an Eagle with its young . This is a beautiful analogy , for the Eagle is unlike any other bird , for when it flies with it's young , it puts its young on its back , thereby facing the Earth and dangers there , with it's own stomach , thus shielding its young , from the arrows off man . So does HaShem Shield us , his chosen people of Israel . HaShem Guides us with His Holy Torah True , for Torah , Is HaShem's Lighted Pathway , to HaShem , the milk and honey of Torah . We Jews will , in Moshiach's time , be called " Yeshurun , " which has the word ' Yashar ' in it , which means ' straight . ' HaShem , in this song written by Moshe from HaShem , then continues , telling how we will rebel against HaShem and His Torah and Commandments . How some of our people , will sadly follow the beliefs of the other nations , that will lead those who follow it , astray . How some will offer to demons while others will follow falsely deified idols and other beliefs , even new ones of beliefs in following any form of deity-ship , other than G-D Alone and His Oneness . For the Nations seek to make physical , their beliefs , and follow that which has a physical reference , whether it be wood , stone or human . Such things are an abomination to HaShem , who is not a physical being and never will be contained in a physical human , that is born , for G-D Alone Creates all humans and all things , and Is One and Beyond Any Physicality , and cannot be contained in anything that HaShem Creates ( Numbers 23 : 19 and Hosea 11: 9 , where HaShem Is The One And Only Savior Hosea 13 : 4 ) . HaShem Will Then Hide His Countenance From us , so as not to be hurt ,and also so as not to take full cognizance of our sins of idol-worship and other sins , for then HaShem Would Be Fully Concentrated on our total punishment . HaShem Says , " My arrows shall I use up against them . " This sounds very final , but in fact , this is actually also a positive reference , for If HaShem Uses Up All His Arrows Against us , and we are still there , it means HaShem Will Certainly Limit our punishment and we will still survive by HaShem's Caring Compassionate Mercy . HaShem Will Punish all those that have turned away from His Commandments , whether the young man , or the virgin who then cohabits with that which she claims is other - worldly , from whom a young man comes , HaShem Will punish them , from the suckling youth , to the elderly , who do wrong . HaShem Says , He Will Scatter them . We are to be a Nation of counsel and discernment and wise . HaShem will cause our enemies to see our disobedience . This Song of Haazinu , will stand up and show why these things come upon us , That It Comes From HaShem , our Rock . Even our offerings and fruits , will bot be given correctly as offerings , but will be given with idol worship , which is exactly what happened , in the time of the Kings . How Prophetic , is this Song of Haazinu . But just as HaShem Prophecies our Punishment , So Does HaShem Prophecy our Redemption Here In This Shira Of Haazinu . So just as the one has come true in history , so will the other , including , as is mentioned here in The Shira of Haazinu , the punishment and destruction ,at the End of Days , of all those through history , who have in any way hurt Jews through time . HaShem Directly Says here in verse 39 , " See , now , that I , I am He. - and no god is with Me . I put to death and I bring life , I struck down and I will heal , and there is no rescuer from My Hand . " How clear HaShem Puts It , Saying That there is no other god , no other savior with HaShem , That HaShem Is Alone , no other parts To Him , no son part , no holy spirit part as a second part . HaShem Is One . Only HaShem Brings Life and Death . Only HaShem Heals and Only HaShem Rescues . There is no parts with G-D . G-D Is Not Physical and G-D Is One and Always Will Be and Will Never Ever Be , At Any Time , Anything Else But One . HaShem Will Then Take Vengeance on all those who have gone to other deities and who followed other parts to deify them , for HaShem Said , ' I am One . ' HaShem Then Clearly States , " O nations - sing the praises of His people ( the Jews as mentioned earlier in this Song ) , for He ( HaShem ) will avenge ( against the nations that hurt the Jews through time ) the blood of His Servants ( the Jews - who keep to and follow only His Oneness and don't stray to other pagan beliefs ) ; He ( HaShem ) will bring retribution upon His foes ( those nations who hurt His Jewish people ) , and He will appease His Land ( Israel - removing all traces of idol worship and anything that goes against HaShem's Oneness and Torah ) and His people ( Jews ) . " So ends the Shira of Haazinu . Moshe came with Hoshea ( Joshua ) and spoke all the words of this Shira to the people , to their ears that they might hear within . Moshe told them to apply their hearts to all the words that he testified to them that last day of his life then , and they are to instruct their children , to be careful to perform all the words of this Torah , for it is their very life and the prolonging of their very days on the Land which they go over the Jordan to possess it . It was on that very day , That HaShem Told Moshe To ascend the Mountain of Abarim Mount Nebo , in the Land of Moab , before Jericho , and see the Land of Canaan that HaShem Gives To the Children of Israel as an inheritance . And then will Moshe pass away on this Mountain , with a Divine Kiss of Love , just as Aharon his brother did . Moshe again asked to be let into the Land , But HaShem Said ' No , ' again reminding Moshe of his trespass against HaShem among the Children of Israel at the waters of Meribath - kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin , because Moshe did not sanctify HaShem among the Children of Israel . HaShem Told Moshe that he would only see the Land from a distance , but shall not enter there into the Land that HaShem Gives To the Children of Israel .HaShem Told Moshe , that in Moshiach's Time , Moshe would then rise and lead the generation of the Wilderness , into The Land Then . So ends the Parsha . Isn't it interesting that this Shira begins with the word " Haazinu , " - " Give Ear . " Giving Ear , means listening wholeheartedly . What does listening wholeheartedly mean ? It means listening with ones all .It starts at the Ear and then goes throughout ones whole being coming deep into one's Soul , Straight From HaShem . Listening only to HaShem , means that we must not listen to or go and follow anything else . Anything that humans do that is against HaShem's Oneness , is totally wrong . Giving one's " Ear " to HaShem , Giving one's total obedience Only To HaShem's Laws , closing off one's Ear , from listening to anything else , for Only HaShem And His Torah , Are True . If we listen closely , to only HaShem , and call on His Name Only , and denounce all other beliefs , then will we be properly tuned into HaShem's Creation , of Heaven and Earth . HaShem Gave us two ears , so why is one Ear mentioned ? That is possibly because we must keep an Ear toward the one witness Shamaim Heaven , and also keep an Ear ( the other Ear ) toward Eretz Earth , and work to make them One , by making Earth , a place that Heaven can dwell . This means using our body and soul , to work toward making every moment on Earth , a Holy Moment of Obedience to HaShem And His Torah , which is how Shamaim Heaven is , and then , the two witnesses of Shamaim Heaven and Eretz Earth , can become one . This is one of the reasons we are here , to work for HaShem , keeping His Creation Holy . When we do this , it will be as though we are listening with one single " Ear " purpose , and that purpose , is HaShem . If we do that , then the secret of the Word " Haazinu " - " Give Ear , " will then show itself , for this word " Haazinu " contains the words " HaShem Az Yanu , " which means " HaShem Will Then Be With Us " This is what we are also here for , to bring HaShem's Oneness into everything . When we " Haazinu , " - " Give our Ear " to HaShem And His Oneness , and follow Only HaShem and HaShem's Torah Commandments , and when we remove all forms of idolatry , thus believing and following HaShem Only , than HaShem Will Be With us , and Creation , will then reach its intended goal , at the End of Days , with HaShem Ha Kadosh Baruch Hu , HaShem The Holy One Blessed Be He . I wish HaShem With Sweetest Love , A Most Special And Beautiful Shabbos Kodesh With Deepest Love , and to all my fellow Jews , a Most Special and Beautiful Shabbos Kodesh with love and a Meaningful Fast . To all my fellow Jews and to all of Creation , a Blessed Shabbos Kodesh with love .
