Shavuot Torah from Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach
| We are living in a world where we think doing ‘Tshuva’ means, I did something wrong. You think Ruth did something wrong? Because she was born by the King of Moav? That the way she was born! G-d sent her this way. Tshuva means something else. Tshuva means that I’m connected to the Torah without knowing it. Tshuva means that I am connected to every page of the Gemorrah. Do you know, even before I know the whole Shas, the whole Talmud, I have already cried over very page of the Gemorrah. you know what’s the deepest thing about ‘Counting The Omer’? If you miss one day,you can’t fix it. Until Shavuos, until David HaMelech… I really don’t know there is such a thing as doing Tshuva. Imagine that, when Ruth came to Boaz, Boaz had asked, Who’s your father? The King of Moab?! You have spent your previous life as a Moabite?! Pshu! Boaz initiated is that when you see a person you say, ‘Hashem Imochem’. You greet people in the name of the Lord. You don’t first ask them what they did yesterday. ‘Hashem Imochem’ G-d is with you all the time. not only from now on. May hashem always be with all of us and may we give that feeling to all people we come in contact with.
