How are people coping in Israel?

Shabbat Shalom!

In Parshat Va’etchanan, Moses reminds Israel that God did not choose them for their size or strength, but precisely because they are few in number. What is the meaning of this divine choice? Why would God highlight smallness as a defining characteristic of His people?

The portion challenges us to rethink greatness — not in terms of power or numbers, but in terms of calling, faith, and responsibility. Being few means that every person matters, every action counts, and each life carries weight in the covenant with God.

Join us as we explore the spiritual secret of being “small in number,” and how it shapes Israel’s mission, leadership, and destiny throughout history.

Watch now and uncover the timeless wisdom of Parshat Va’etchanan!
