ELUL
I would just like to say this was very very interesting. I'm one of those Noahides you mentioned at the start, and this tape was very educational for me. I always wondered why the Jewish people had two beginnings and this cleared it up for me. Also it explains why I'm so down at this time of the year, my good inclination is drawing me to examine myself and to seek Hashem more earnestly which will culiminate in my commitment to Hashem. The way you used the marriage metaphor t o explain it was fabulas. This helped me to see more clearly what's goin on in my life. And explains this deep desire within me to not want to be disobedient to Hashem. The deep desire to want to be closer to him and know Him more fully.

Todah,
