A Month to Prepare
Throughout the month of Elul, the Jewish people has a collective task: to prepare itself to be inscribed and sealed for a good and sweet year. Indeed, there is a Jewish custom to wear white on Rosh Hashanah eve, to express the certainty that all will be inscribed in the Book of the Righteous. Clearly, then, the preparation for this must also be with unity.

The night was created for Torah study
— Talmud, Eruvin 65a

G‑d is found at two poles of Time:
He is found outside time and beyond.
And He is found here within the moment now.
From that point beyond time, G‑d looks within the moment now, and He says, “From this, I will have delight.”
With that choice, all of past and future is created anew.
