This week, we read about the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai, an unparalleled event in history. Beyond the laws given, Jewish tradition tells us of miraculous occurrences—sicknesses were healed, physical and spiritual realities were unified, and even souls left their bodies due to the overwhelming divine revelation. These miracles weren’t just physical—they symbolized the deep connection between the Creator and His creation. Through this revelation, we come to understand that the Torah is not just a religious guide but the very source of life itself, leading us to the ultimate redemption and the arrival of Moshiach.
