In this week’s episode of Ḥoni’s Circle we study Psalm 121, with commentary by Malbim. This is the psalm we’ve been adding to our services since October 7th and is traditionally recited by Jews in times of distress. We discuss the unusual metaphor of divine protection from dangers from the moon, possibly referring to protection from despair, changes in the water cycle, and the unanticipated. All are pertinent to our grappling with climate change. Follow along with the source sheet here: www.sefaria.org/sheets/529750
