This week, we find ourselves reading the last parashyot of the third book of the Torah. This book, devoted to teaching that, in the Jewish tradition, rituals and ethics make up a unique and unbreakable fabric that cannot be separated, ends with a long list of rewards and punishments destined to those who fulfill or transgress the established covenant.
This hard admonition served as epilogue to the guidelines of the bond forged between Israel and God: once the procedures and manner of keeping alive the relationship were perfectly clear, the consequences entailed by the decision to not fulfill the commitment were mentioned at the end.
