1. Introduction: Judaism and the
Home
 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget
her cunning. Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my
mouth, if I remember thee not.
-Psalm 137:5

3. And let them make a sanctuary for Me that
I may dwell among them. – Exodus 25:8

4. Let the bridegroom emerge from his chamber and the
bride from her chuppah. -Joel 2:16

5. Judaism teaches us to be attached to holiness in time, to attached to sacred events, to
learn how to consecrate sanctuaries that emerge from the magnificent stream of year.
The Sabbaths are our great cathedrals; and our Holy of Holies is a shrine that neither
the Romans nor the Germans were able to burn.- A.J.Heschel
