Shabbos Miracle: The Girl Who Stood Firm & Witnessed a Miraculous Turn of Events Rabbi Paysach Krohn
Rabbi Paysach Krohn retells a story about a girl who did not accept a job at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory because she would have had to work on Shabbos. She remembered the words of her father, "Countries change and cultures change, but the Toah is constant - the Torah doesn't change." Her life was saved when there was a fire at the factory that weekend. I was remimded about what I posted yesterday about a woman who was officiating at at Yom Kippur service, who made a comment before the reading of the Torah which details forbidden relations. "We are reading the section of the Torah about rules about holiness. How to be a holy person, how to live a holy life. If you're following along, I'd encourage you to think critically about they ways that we today in 2023 live a holy life an how that is sometimes consistent with what we read here and how sometimes our world keeps moving on."
No, our world does not keep moving on against the principles of the Torah.
