While our connection to G-d, and to Eretz Yisrael, are eternal, the Torah warns Avraham Avinu that Shmirat HaBrit (guarding the Covenant by observing the laws of proper sexual behavior) is of paramount importance in insuring that the Covenant of the Brit remains constantly active:
“This is My Brit that thou shall safeguard, between Me and you and thy seed after thee, every male among you shall be circumcised,” (Bereshit, 17:8-10.) The meaning of Shmirat HaBrit, as the Zohar stresses, is not merely the obligation to circumcise our children, but also to guard our sexual purity, and this is what guarantees our settlement of Eretz Yisrael. As the Torah portion of Achrei Mot makes clear – the punishment for sexual misconduct is national destruction and exile from our Land, (Vayikra, 18:28.) |
