Yaala Zoom Room Meditations

Welcome to Ya’ala

Ya’ala is the name for our Zoom Room meditations based on Shir Hashirim. We will post schedules, topics, discussions and our room recordings here.

Ya’ala is also the name of a song based on Shir Hashirim. Listen here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcDTBRGwerw

YA’ALA (My Doe)

My doe, my doe, come to my garden

The pomegranates are in bloom and my vines have flowered

Come, my beloved, hasten your steps

Eat of the choicest fruits

If my lover’s wanderings have been extended

How shall I sit alone in my position

My doe, my doe, come to my garden

The pomegranates are in bloom and my vines have flowered

Return to me, you are the loved one

Return to me, and I shall return to you

Behold, I have with me a written word
That you shall be my dwelling place

The key to the song is found in the final two lines (in bold) which mention this promise of return being in writing:

The Torah identifies with Shir Hashirim. For the Torah is the pledge for the love around which the Song revolves. If the pledge is violated, the Torah itself stands before God’s Throne as an accuser.
‘Megillas Shir Ha-Shirim,’ Rav. Dr. Raphael Breuer
