Haazinu (Deuteronomy 32:152)By Jessica Spencer | Sepember 15, 2021 Haazinu is a swansong, a poem declaimed by Moses before he dies and leaves the Israelites to face their future. At this time of year, a time of both reflection and new beginnings, it calls us to remember our past and to take these words to heart for the new year. Maimonides draws attention in particular to the last line of the first aliyah: Remember the days of old; understand the years of generations; Ask your father and he will tell you; your elders, they will speak to you [Devarim 32:6] For Maimonides, the aliyah finishes here for a reason: to induce the community to do teshuvah, return or repentance.
