Dvar Torah + Coloring Pages

October 11, 2023   |   Tishrei 26, 5784 GrowTorah Weekly Parsha Volume 3.1 Our hearts are breaking for our brothers and sisters in Israel. May the zchut of the Torah we teach every day in our garden programs, and the Torah we share here, bring about swift peace, healing to all those injured, a return of all captives, nechama to all those mourning and an end to this evil hatred. Welcome to GrowTorah Parsha Blog 3.0! Our weekly Parsha emails now include downloadable coloring pages to help engage even the youngest members of the Farmily! Check them out below.  This week's parsha blog was written by Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks ZT"L, and edited for GrowTorah by the GrowTorah Inchworms of 2021. I updated it for this blog post. Rabbi Sacks discusses how the world was given to us not only to Till and to Tend, but also to care for and protect.  May we all be zoche to till, tend, protect, and enjoy the land for many years to come.  Shabbat Shalom, Shoshi Ehrenreich  Parshat Bereshit In Parshat Bereshit Hashem creates the universe. He commands us to "subdue" the land. How exactly should that directive manifest? Additionally, how are we to reconcile this mandate with that of perek bet in which Hashem tells us to "guard" the land? How can we have both of these relationships with the land? Is there a balance that Hashem wants us to strike? BERESHIT - DVAR TORAH Original Artwork by Abby Glass, member of the 2022 GrowTorah Inchwormship.   Artist's Statement: In Parshat Bereishit, Hashem created the universe in 7 days: (1) Darkness & Light (2) Water & Sky (3) Land & Sea (Greenery) (4) Sun, Moon & Stars (5) Fish & Birds (6) Mammals & Humans (7) Day of Rest (Shabbat) This illustration depicts the beauty of each day of creation in their own unique ways.
