Machshavot HaLev - Yeshivat Lev HaTorah

בלה תובשחמ
figuratively give Hashem a ring as one does in marriage. Why must we both circle
Hashem and give Him this ring? We can suggest that at the end of days we will
make the statement that we were given a legal title over the Torah and followed it
to the best of our ability. This is symbolized by the circle made around Hashem.
It is, however, also necessary, and possibly even more important, to show our
psychological title to the Torah. The tzadikim give Hashem a ring to demonstrate
that we are married to Him and that we have not forsaken His Land, His Torah
or His mitzvos. They will declare that they have toiled for each of these gifts and
that they are indeed precious to them and to the entire nation of Israel. May we be
zocheh to soon be part of those who circle Hashem, point to Him and declare His
sovereignty and our commitment His Land, His Torah and His mitzvos!
