Korban Quest

One's Korban Quest is a spiritual endeavor of drawing closer to G-d, to faith, to one's life. Here Neil Spirtas looks at friends, family, a culture, and tradition through the natural world and the spiritual one. The Hebrew word Korban comes originally from the commandments in the Torah for sacrificial offerings. Doing homage in ancient times required great offerings, but after the catastrophic events surrounding the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE, Jews turned to prayer for atonement, "to reach out" and draw closer to G-d.
It is our responsibility, as writers, to profess to be good and sweet faithfulness - in the magic and mystery of our words. My hope is readers will find your own Korban journey as fruitful and phenomenal as mine. Neil Spirtas
