Promises, Promises by Nicola Feuchtwang

Written By Rabbi Sandra Kviat

Rabbi Nicola Feuchtwang is a student rabbi, this piece first appeared on the Leo Baeck College website.

As Rabbi Sacks stressed at the end of his essay:

‘Words create moral obligations….Moral obligations, undertaken responsibly and honoured faithfully, create the possibility of a free society’

And as we repeat to ourselves at the end of every Amidah:

‘God – keep my tongue from causing harm and my lips from telling lies.’
