Quotes by Abigail Pogrebin (?)

“It’s a clear snapshot of how we hold both the ending and the beginning in the same moment, not to mention that the ending never ends.”
― Abigail Pogrebin, My Jewish Year: 18 Holidays, One Wondering Jew

“Contrary to the other three hundred days of the year, when you’re running and doing and building and constructing, the Jewish holidays provide a kind of in-built way to pause and to gather yourself and regenerate. . . . Our lives can become so full of activities and to-do tasks that, in some sense, the soul becomes overwhelmed. We need to defragment our souls. We can be pulled in so many different directions, but the holidays help that part of us that needs meaning and connection and great purpose. . . . Holiday rituals are ancient technologies that carry contemporary wisdom. Judaism works.”
― Abigail Pogrebin, My Jewish Year: 18 Holidays, One Wondering Jew

“Simchat Torah (rejoicing of the Torah) marks the day we complete the Torah and start it all over again. The last verses of the last book (Deuteronomy) are read, followed by the first verses of the first book (Genesis). It’s a clear snapshot of how we hold both the ending and the beginning in the same moment, not to mention that the ending never ends.”
