Without Vision, a People Run Wild
Question
Hello Rabbi Michi,
I'm a little worried about the end of the war and the elimination of all our enemies. We are a people without a vision, and without vision a people run wild.
I'm wondering where we'll direct our energy after the war ends. Do you think it's possible to propose a shared vision for Israeli society?
Answer
Start training for a marathon.
The question doesn't trouble me, and I also don't see myself as qualified to set out a vision for the people. Even if you or I came up with some vision, why would anyone adopt it?!
And in general, what people has a vision?
And finally, do you see on the horizon a situation in which the wars and threats against us come to an end? At this stage, it seems you can put your mind at ease.
