Shabbat, February 14, 2026 – Parashat Mishpatim—Forming the Justice System.
After receiving the Ten Commandments from God at Mount Sinai, Moses descended from the mountain—carrying the tablets from the place where Heaven and Earth met, if only for a moment. Revelation did not remain at the summit. It was brought down into human life. Now we have to live those divine laws on Earth.
This Shabbat, as we read Parashat Mishpatim, we will explore how lofty principles become daily practice—how everyday laws, ethical choices, and communal responsibilities transform ordinary life into sacred space.
Together, we will reflect on how we bring heaven down to earth, one action at a time.
