“We stand here in the middle, hearing the shofar sound forth from the past and the future. But the sound we most need to hear is the call of the present, the shofar that says to us in this very moment, ‘Wake up! You are being called.’
We submit. We are noticed. We are being called.”
— Rabbi Arthur Green

Contained in our Torah portion for this coming Shabbat, Ki Tetzei (Deuteuronomy 21:10-25:19), are 72 of the 613 commandments according to Maimonides. Topics addressed range from family relationships to miscellaneous laws that focus on commitments to G-d and our neighbors.
But before the close of the portion, that also deals with the blotting out the memory of Amalek, we are reminded of the social justice laws protecting the poor and the weak with binding laws.
And let us not forget the numerous verses that dictate how we treat animals.
