Torah

 Hebrew culture:

Every good Israelite engages the word of God continually 

Deuteronomy 11:18,19,20

We talk about it in the public square and on the corners.

We teach it to our children in our homes.

It's the first thing we read after prayer in the morning. 

And it's the last thing we do before we take our rest at night. 

We write it on our doors and walls.

It is essential to our life, like the air or spirit is to all living. 

Zarach
