The King is in the Field

 


The month of Elul is a special time of Divine good will and mercy – a time that is particularly conducive to prayer and repentance.

Actually, the month is part of the preparatory process for entering into the awesome judgment of Rosh Hashana and the cleansing power of the Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement.
