What does the World Cup have to do with the book of Devarim? Quite a lot. In this Shabbat reflection from Rabbi Pam Silk, we move from packed bars and office pools to Moses standing at the edge of the Jordan, looking back over forty years in the wilderness. Along the way we meet Cape Verde’s stunning upset, Argentina’s last‑minute comeback, and orange‑painted buses marching through city streets, right alongside manna, rebellion, grief, and the quiet gift of Shabbat arriving every seventh day. Rabbi Silk explores how real life is just as unpredictable as any tournament, yet still held by rhythms we can trust: sacred time, community, and the people who show up week after week. Watch and consider: Where are you standing on the edge of your own Devarim, and what rhythms are carrying you forward?
