Much has been proposed to explain the double expression צדק צדק תרדוף Justice, Justice, You Shall Pursue which is the keynote of our parsha Shoftim. Rabbi Munk seems to have the most essential explanation that both the process as well as the final result have to be just. In other words, when it comes to the judicial matters, we don't say the ends justify the means. Everything has to be both just, and righteous.

Security for the month of Elul is generously sponsored by Chava Chalom in loving memory of her father, Mayer Chalom ben Eliyahu HaLevi. May his memory be for a blessing. It is hoped that this will lead to communal feelings of happiness and conviviality throughout these special Shabatot.

Important information regarding policy and the High Holidays will be forthcoming shortly.
