“When you go out to battle against your enemy, and you see horse and chariot – a people more numerous than you – you shall not fear them, for Hashem, your G-d, is with you” (Deuteronomy 20:1).

In this week’s parsha, Shoftim, Moses exhorts the nation to be confident as they face their enemies in battle. As we enter the month of Elul, this message could not be more relevant!

While on the surface, Moses was referring to external enemies and physical battle, his words apply to each of us daily, even if we are far from conflict zones and geographic front lines.

Life, the Sages teach, is a constant........
