A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
The Torah reading Shelach is built around the sad rejection of the Jewish people in the desert to "making aliyah" to the Promised Land;
the antidote is to arouse in ourselves love and fondness for the Land and for life in it. (See articles: The Land, Chapter 3/sections 3-7) |
