Repair of the World
Tikkun Olam
February 19, 2020Hebrew: תיקון עולם
Translation: The Repair of the World
‘If you see what needs to be repaired and how to repair it, then you have found a piece of the world that God has left for you to complete. But if you only see what is wrong and what is ugly in the world, then it is you yourself that needs repair.’
[Jews today have extended this classical concept to include the pursuit of social justice and care for the environment.]
