RAV KOOK ON Ha'azinu Part 2: The Diversity of Israel
An anecdote relates how a certain Jew was stranded for many years on a deserted island. When he was finally rescued, he boasted of his many accomplishments on the island, including the construction of two synagogues. ‘Very impressive,’ responded his rescuers. ‘But why two synagogues?’ ‘This is the synagogue that I attend,’ explained the man, pointing at one structure. ‘The other one is the synagogue I refuse to step foot in.’ The joke would not be humorous if it did not contain a kernel of truth. The Jewish people often seem to be ‘blessed’ with an overabundance of infighting. Why is there so much division and conflict?
