TORAH PORTION
Haazinu ... Listen
Deuteronomy 32:1-52
Give ear, O heavens, let me speak; Let the earth hear the words I utter!
-
Deuteronomy 32:1
SUMMARY:
- Moses sings his last song, a love poem to God and a chastisement
of the people, who are not worthy of Adonai. (32:1-6)
- The poem recounts the blessings that God has bestowed on the Israelites, the wicked deeds they have committed, and the punishments that God then inflicted upon them. (32:7-43)
- God tells Moses to begin his ascent of Mount Nebo, from where
he will see the Land of Israel from a distance but will not be allowed to enter it. (32:45-52)

BSA Religious Emblem Class
starting in October
A few years ago, CNT families came together to teach our sons Cub Scout curriculum to earn the Aleph Award for religious education. Our passion for scouting extends to their faith, and our families wanted to create another enriching experience for them to combine two integral attributes of their lives. The CNT Education Committee is thrilled to offer an opportunity for Boy Scouts ages 11 - 14 years old. A five-class curriculum will be offered starting in October for any CNT member who would like to earn the
BSA Ner Tamid religious emblem. Please contact Erin Moore at
[email protected] to sign up for the class by September 10.
The CNT Education Committee has information on the Menorah Award
for Girl Scouts in Grades 7, 8 and 9, as well as other awards for
various ages. Please contact us if you have a Girl Scout interested in earning an award. We can't wait to see what the boys will contribute
to our community as they earn the next religious emblem.
